All that can be learned distinctly
from the daily reports of outrages in
in Bulgaria is that the country and
its inhabitants have suffered and are
suffering all the horrors that war can
bring. ltappears to be truethat the
advance of the Russian army has not
everywhere brought security, but ev-
en- the Constantinople outrage-mon-
gers accused only the hossacks, while
the barbarity on the other side has
not been confined to the Bashi 'Ba-
zouks. but in many cases has been
under the direct command of the OF
toman officers. The case Of the Ges-
hoff's for example, is an instance Of
official cruelty of the very blacklist
kind and as these unfortunate mer-
chants are well known in England,
it may exercise a wholesome in
auence upon sentiment in thatcoun-
try. "

The reports of trade, says an ex'
change, from the west and southwest
are most promising. The cereal
have proved most abundant. Corn,
which is the only crop not yet fully
made, is, in almost the entire region
in which it is an important consider.
alton, beyond the influence of frost,
There is no question that it will be q
large crop. Those who are in the
best position to know, have the full
est confidence in the harvest. In
Chicago, in Louisville, in Nashville
the merchants represent the Fall
trade as beyond that of any late year
and beyond expectation. This is
precisely inaccordance with the nat.
ural and proper rules of trade. Ii is
in the producing districts that the
first impulse of trade should be felt
because there it is based upon actual
production of the necessaries of life
Wheat, corn, cotton, wool, these are
the essentials. When these are pro.
duced, the producer is able to pur.
chase, so far as he has a surplus, the
luxuries of life. In this country, at
any rate, the worker seeks for the
family, if notfor. himself, the elegan.
cies. When, therefore, the farmer
secs his wayje pay the interest on
his mortgage and have q little some.
thing left, hewil buy at the store
that which lie, Iin'Ris region, clash,
ionable." How, soon and how far
this tide of expenditure will come
east at this juncture, is not to be es-
timated, ALI that can be said is that
this tide promises to be more full
than for long time past.
