Youngsters Of the present day to known
lust What their fathers paid for clothing
in 1860, We will quote few articles;
frock coat (ilne), SIS; fine dress pants, $40;
fine vest, So; sack coat (cassimerel, Sl2;
cashmere pants, So cheap pants, s. 80;
common cashmere business suit, Sl5.
Boots and shoes are made much finer
now than in go, and their manufacture is
much more expensive. In those halcyon
days the tox.toed boot had not yet made
It's appearance, and the ladies wore very
plain low.hCeied shoes. There was no
machine work then, all the sewing being
done by hand. There was not sGch q
wide range in prices, either, the practical
people pTeierring an article Of durability
and simplicity to one Of style and finish.
The dealers generally keep on hand a few
pairs Of the old.time lOw.heeled shoes,
which are sometimes inquired after BY
elderly ladies who choose 10 keep their
feet comfortable, despite the dictates OF
Dame Fashion. Considering the differ.
ence in the style OF shoes worn then and
now, and the improved facilities for the
manufacture of all classes Of goods, our
quotations will hardly show the changes
in the price during the past fifteen years.
Common "stogie" boots can even now he
bought in this city rs low as 81 90, but
the average price Is 81 co.. Such boots,
made by hand; were worth s. 50in 1860.
We quote this merely to show the inn
possibility of giving any figures by which
the difference in the price OF the same
class Of goods, can be shown.
OF course the prices Of provisions and
produce are influenced more or less by
the supply. Potatoes were never plentier
than at this time, while the fruit in this
section Of the country was total failure
this season. The wheat. was damaged
this season by the heavy rains, while
there was IN abundant corn crop. 1t is
no unusual thing to have butter famine,
and occasionally there is great scarcity
OF eggs and poultry. Therefore the prices
OF these articles are not always influenced
by, the general hard times. Groceries,
however, with the single exception Of
sugar, are still higher than before the
war; though n triile lower than five
years ago. Tea now rates at 50ca
81 Copper pound, against 5Oa75c fifteen
years ago; and coffee at 23a25c against 10
also. Soap is nearly down to old rates
again, selling at Sal0c per ID, against Sa
l2lc in 80. Beefsteak, in 1850, was sold
at SalOc per ID, and 1T the present time
sells ut u ia l5c. So it will be seen that
that there is yet some distance to go be-
fore the minimum Of antc-bellum days is
reached.

1t will be observed that the salaries OF
the railroad men are now the same, or
nearly so, as in 1860. This may not be
entirely correct, MS the figures for the
year 1850 we're given from memory alone,
there being no data in the city by which
to obain the necessary information. The
wages paid ut glass houses, quoted above,
were obtained from the books OF Messrs.
Hobbs & Barnes, who were proprietors OF
the South Wheeling Glass Works in
1860, and the present firm, J. H. Hobbs,
BroCkunier & Co. We take the salaries
paid on Wheeling and Parkersburg and
Wheeling and Cincinnati packets for our
steamboat quotations. The wages Of the
mill men, mechanics, clerks, etc, were
uniform in the city so far as our observa.
ton extends.
Having shown the earnings Of the
workingmen, We now propose to show
the cost Of living in the years mentioned.
Only articles in ordinary use, going to
make up the necessarics OF u family, are
quoted. These articles are in common
use by the families Of the capitalist and

With the exception OF dry goods,
which are rs low and in some instances
lower now than in 1860, there is still
wide difference in prices. For instance
prints which sold in 1860 at GIal2lc per
yard now sell al 6alOc per yard, and
"Whceling stogies,n which could be pur.
chased in GO for 81 so per 1000, can not
now he bought for less than $40 per l.
600. However, Uncle Sam considered
the latter article luxury when so much
money was needed for the public service,
and taxed ii accordingly, very wisely, we
think, discriminating as much Us possible
in favor Of the real necessities Of life.
The tax upon chewing tobacco has been
correspondingly heavy, and those who
indulge in the weed now pay nearly five
times as much for the luxury as they did
in 1860.
There has been quite an important dc.
cline in the price OF mems clothing with.
in the past five years, As shown BY our
figures, common cashmere business
suit, such as ia worn on the street every

the latest fashionable style, for S25,
against $50 in 1870 and SIC in 1860. The
difference in the cost OF finer clothing is
still greater; fine dress suit Of the best

high us So, and now from S45 TO $50.
