Revival of Business,

There seems to be an impression
says the money editor of the Ledqer,
that there is to be general revival of
business in the near future. Although
few lock for great revival, the feel
ing is general that there is to be a
steady improvement for the better
That the people generally are examin-
ing their affairs, and giving their earn
est attention to learn how 10 do bust
ness as well as live within their means,
and to avoid driving ahead on "uek"
ia the future, as too many have done
in the past, is considered as one of the
best signs of the times. A prominent
dry goods merchant of keen observa-
tion and long experience, who has
been interrogated by the Boston Globe,
says: "Let business alone; it will re-
vive if every one who has work to do
will do it, and mind his own business. "
He was aware. nf con,se, that there
had been, and, in fact, is still, stag
nation in business, and the principal
cause Of this was the illegitimate
method of conducting business by too
many nowadays, both public and
private. "Talk about failures" he
said, "why show me one of any amount
in the dry goods trade. There have
been fewer failures in the dry goods
trade the last year than for twenty
five years back" The dry goods bus
iness, he declares, and probably with
Truth, was never on better basis than
it is to-day, for prices have touched
the bottom aud were never safer. He
thought the Centennial would bring
trade from abroad. The tide of travel
now will be this way, and not to
Europe, and, of course, if the Euro
peans come here they will leave some
money.

Biaino's and Conlling's QuarreI-An
AstemPt 70 Heal the Twelve Years
A Washington dispatch says: There
has been q report in circulation for
several days that q number of inHuen-
tial gentlemen from New York, some
OF whom were here, were busy in an
attempt to patch up a reconciliation
between Senator Conkling and ex-
Speaker Blaine. Among the names
OF those who were alleged to De en-
gagged In the work those of VIM, Or
ton, A. b. Cornell and Waldo Hatch
ings, all of whom have been in Wash
ington lately, and two of whom are
known to have had unusually init
mate relations with both of the dis.
tinguished gentlemen named. Just
how far their effort succeeded, il in
deed such an effort was made is not
known. but it is known that No com
plets reconciliation was affected.
The failure Of the effort might have
been foreseen. Hessrs. Conkling and
Blaine quarrelled on the floor of the
House about eleven or twelve years
ago, tho former receiving such q par
liamentary punishment as he has never
received since, and one which he will
probably always remember. The gen.
tlemen have not spoken to each other
since, and, although frequently in
company together. have never ex-
changed courtesies. As between
themselves, the custom seems to be
one of indifference, neither gentleman
appearing to be conscious of the ex-
istence of the other. Whatever for
NAL reconciliation may take place in
the future, there will probably always
be hostile feeling between them, =
There mutual friends deplere the bit
terness, but neither gentleman feels
like renewing the friendly relations
that once existed.

The Tax Oh Railroad Earnings TO bC
Looked After.

Looked After.
The Treasury Department at Wash
ington has been for fortnight or
more engaged in preparing to make a
general examination of the books of
all the railroad companies, in order to
ascertain whether they are indebted
to the Government for taxes accrued
and withheld during the peroid en-
braced between September l, 1868, and
December 81, 1871 when the Internal
revenue tax upon earnings and gross
receipts of railroad companies ceased
by limitation. Officers will be detail
ed to make the examinations, and re-
port will be made to the Treasury De-
partment of all taxes found to be due
for the peroid named. Where taxes
are found to be due demand will be
made for payment, the companies so
reported to be SO indebted being affor-
ded an opportunity to show that they
are not SO indebted. Should the cow-
panies reported as owing taxes decliue
to make payment when demand is
made. suit will be instituted by the
United States for the amount returned
by the officer, together with the fifty
per cent penalty and one per cent. in
terest per month prescribed by the in
ternal Revenue law and the severa
amendments therein.

Since April, 1874 Louisiana has been fund
