w Onen's Feet.

Something in recent events has started
lively discussion over the delightful
subject Of the size and shape OF ladies'
feet, which has given rise to such q deal
OF talk that it almost amounts to foot
and-mouth disease. There is little
doubt as to the shape, the architectural
design,
The delicate Arab ARCH
and so on, which one fellow gloatingly
depicts as follows: The heel must be
small and pink, the ankle firm, the
nails rosy, and the processes Of the
bones indicated rather than distinctly
shown" But, in discussing the ques-
ton of size, with characteristic 1dlocy,
the leading fact-that the matter Is one
OF relation and proportion is ignored.
4 writer in the Graphic, signing him
: 'Anatomist, leads off by saying
There is a great deal Of nonsense
talked about women's feet, which IS
true enough on any rainy day, and then
goes on to lay down with asinine sol
emnity that "A detached female foot
should not weigh at the outside more
than two and half pounds. As test
this must be pronounced defective, IN
asmuch as few females whether OF
the human species or not would be
willing to have their feet detached, even
perfection. But the dictum itself Is as
supertiuOus and unanatomical as pro-
nunciamentO that a whole woman
should weigh at the outside not more
than hundred and ten pounds.

The petition for the pardon Of Con-
stantine Mcguire, the ex-Revenue Col
lector, was yesterday referred by the
President to Attorney General Pierre
pont. Mcguire is sentenced to six
months Imprisonment and fine Of
$4,000, and most extraordinary effort
has been made to keep him from being
sent after Joyce, Mcdonald and Avery
to the Missouri Penitentiary. The par
don Of this whisky thief would be an
outrage 1t was through his influence
that the ring accomplished a good deal
of its rascality, and simply because he
has been a very prominent Radical,
with plenty Of money, a determined
effort is being made to save him.

FALL RES.
A Few startling Facts for the Ear. of
Our Merchants.
New York Tribune


Twenty-eight hundred failures in
three monthsl The statement would
hardly be credited but for the estab-
lished reputation for accuracy Of Mr..
Wiman, the statistician of Dun, Barlow
& Co., whose quarterly circular was
issued yesterday. In MI nber, the failures
reported by this agency for the quarter
ending March 81 exceed those of any
previous quarter since its valuable
records have been published. The near
est approach was in the last quarter Of
1875, when the failures in the United
States numbered 2f05. The total for
the last six months is 52f1, a nun Der
exceeded by only three full years in our
history. IN magnitude Of liabilities,
however, the failures Of the first quarter
Of 1876 fall below those Of the last quar-
ter Of 1875 ny six millions.
During the last six months the num-
Der Of failures has been 5211 and the
liabilities 1874. 900, 600 This aggregate
was exceeded during twelve months in
1851, iE 1861, and in 1873, 1874, and 1875,
but not in any other year. Remember
ing that there were paratively few
failures during the first quarter Of 1873.
we may fairly say that within the past
three years the number OF killed and
wounded in the battle Of commerce has
been greater than during the four worst
years Of all our preceding history.
1t is well understood that these disas-
ters indicate, not the progress Of a dis
ease, but the progress Of cure. This
mischief is done during the years Of OK
travagant speculation and unbounded
hope Then it is that vast debts are
created, capital is foolishly risked or
unwisely invested, wasteful eXpendi-
ture consumes the resources of the peo-
pie, and gradually rising markets in
sure immediate gain but ultimate loss.
caused by land speculation as in 1886,
or by railway speculation as in 1886, or
by currency initiation as in 1870, seem to
be times Of great prosperity.
Then breaks the oger-strained rope
and comes the crash. Everybody tries
to hold on to the end, and those fall
who lack capital, energy or prudence.
The long and weary years Of disaster
are necessary to reduce the number Of
dealers and operators, TO cut down the
proportion Of capital invested in the in
termediate pursuits, to compel return
to habits Of economy, and to force
prices back to a natural level. This
remedial work Is not ended. The eX-
tension Of credits to unsound firms has
not yet ceased the bankrupts have not
yet been entirely weeded out; and it is
idle to hope for a genuine and perma-
nent recovery of business until the
average Of commercial Indebtedness has
been pushed still lower. The best that
can be said is that the statement shows
steady and encouraging progress IN the
elimination Of unsOund dealers and SUI
perfluous transporters and manufactu-
rers, and a gradual settlement Of the
vast burden Of debt.

FRANCIS r. BLAIR.
He Died Leaving $500.

ioL louis hepHbucanI
There are only four lines, but they
are worth reading:
Letters Of administration were
granted to James L. Blair on the estate
of Francis P. Blair, Jr., deceased, val
ued at $500 ="
To live fifty-four years and die worth
five hundred dollars is not making the
most of ones opportunities, as times
90. Francis 2. Blair was evidently not
the man for the times, as times go; that
is, if man is to be measured by the
money which he makes out of the times.
He ought to have been a rich mana
very wealthy man and would have
been If he had followed suit with many
other public men. He had the opportu-
mites, thousands Of them, but he seems
to have missed them all or passed them
by-for he lived to be fifty-four years
old and died worth $500.
He was the brains, blood, bone, mus
Gle, life Of a great political party in this
State for years. and when it was the SUI
preme power in this city and country.
It does not appear, however, that he
ever made any money by it. He was,
three times a member OF Congress, and
at the beginning of the war was in such
a position as chairman Of the Military
Committee Of the House as to have com
manded the pick of contracts and his
own selection of war slush He was sin
gularIy remiss, however, in making hay
while the sun shone. Then he was made
a General, but there was not much
money in being a General such as he
was, for he was always pounding away
at the front, getting more kicks than
halfpence.' He did not make any
money by being General, Some Gen
erals did, but somehow he had not the
knack Of it. Then he went to the United
States Senate. Here was another golden
opportunity Some men nave been
known to make handsome fortunes by
going to the Senate; to go in poor, in
fact, and come out wealthy. 1t was not
Blair's way While other public men
were building fortunes in their way. and
according to the way of the times, he
never appeared to care for money. And
80 he died After living fifty-four years,
and toiling, toiling, toiiing, as few men
have ever done, he died leaving $500.
