The Commercial Outlook.
Temperance Advance.

The country has been so long under
the burden of financial pressure that it
is with a feeling sense of relief We hail
the faintest glimmerings of returning
prosperity. With what unfeigned de-
light then, will the country receive the
intelligence that bright and glorious
commercial future is looming up-before
it. The outlook is indeed cheering.
For the benefit of our readers We will
give some opinions of the press on the
subject. The daily COurier-Journal of
the 21st, says: at can no longer be
doubted that we have at last pulled
through the commercial slough, and are
again on hard ground, with the COM
mercial outlook in advance clear and
suspicious" Concerning the previous
DAYS money market, it says: "The
money market was comfortably active,
with well-sustained demand from job
bling and miscellaneous mercantile
branches.
The New York Bulletin says: at
may be doubted whether at any period
since the close CT the war that part OF
the city known as the Dry Goods dis
trict, has exhibited SO much real ami
nation as at present" r + =
"Another proof of reviving commercial
activity is the frequent blOckades OF
draws in Hudson street, at the New
York Central and Hudson street depot,
as we'll as at, and along the wharves OF
the coast.wise steamers. Nor are these
signs of reviving commercial activity
confined to the lower part of the city.
The hotels are receiving large aces
sions to their lists of guests, the major
ity of whom are merchants from the
country, come to effect purchases"
We could give other quotations but
desist, suffice it to say that the news
from every direction, bears the same
tone as the above.
The tendency is decidedly upward
in all the markets. The crops every
where are abundant. The European
war is likely to create an active de-
mand for our produce, and that, too,
with good prices. The Presidential
policy is reviving the hitherto droop-
ing spirits of the people. Indeed every
thing bearing upon our commercial in
terests, gives bright hopes of near
approaching and most prosperous end
in our history. 1t is with sincere
pleasure we pen these reflections and
we are sure that our readers will hear
tily share the pleasure with us.
We should feel devoutly thankful to
the merciful giver of all good, because
he has vouchsafed to us so many
blessings. Let US not forget to return
Him our hearty and lasting gratitude,
and by patiently and persistently con-
tinuing in well doing, let us prove our
appreciation of his goodness and mercy
to us. Let all go to work in earnest
to build up the wasted and injured
fortunes of our country. Let every
one "keep clear the street before his
own door," Let each and everyone
work with all his might, not alone for
selfish purposes, but for the general
good of all the people. There is
plenty for all to do. Religious inter
ests are to be promoted. Educational
institutions are to be fostered. Tenn
perance and moral reform are to be
upheld and sustained. Benevolent
enterprises of various kinds are to be
looked after. A fraternal kindly
feeling is to be cherished in all the
relations of life. A thousand things
looking to the glory of God, and the
well being of humanity; imperiously
demand our services and earnest atten-
tions. Let us see, now that God is
so wonderfully blessing us in a'restored
peace and bright prospective COM
mercial future, that we come up nobly
in the discharge of our respective du-
ties. Then may We indeed expect a
truly prosperous and happy era to
come and to remain with us.
