BUSINESS LURES OF 1876.
EVIDENCE OF THE CoUETRY's RETURN TO A
SOUND AND HEALTHY FINANCIAL CONDITION.

The annual circular Just issued by the Mer-
camille Agency dun, Barlow and Coz tho VS.
much light upon the business casualties of the
past year a1d the prospects of business in the
| near future. Notwithstanding the financial
disasters of the past four years, and the gloom
and depression which have attended the coun-
try from 1873 downward, there are many
things which should bring comfort for the
present and hope for the future. The authors
OF the circular say it is undeniable that the
past year has witnessed a marked improve
compared with the prevailing prices In 1875
IL is equally fact that, in extent of prof table
trade, there has bean perceptible gain, while
in many branches of business q much larger
number have, in 1876, added to their available
surplus than during the year preceding. Nor
should it be forgotten that while I he year gone
by shows All augmentation of business ailnres
it also exhibits satisfactory Increase ia the
wealth of the country. Cotton, grain, sugar,
tobacco, gold, silver, petroleum and numerous
other resources of this great continent have
been produced in Quantities sufficient to yield
81, 600 O00." 1t becomes q matter of sincere
copgratulation that, while the prod uclng power
of the nation has thus been exhibiting itself |
the people have clearly demonstrated by q |
iesaeEIDg of importations and restricted pur-
cb ases OF bot domestic and foreign goods that
they have learned the lesson of Wise economy.
Looking at the business failures of 1876 the
circular shows the number TO have been l 352
greater than in 1878, but the liabilities are
$40 942 G67 less in the former IAN in the latter
year. The failures were 8 092 in 1876 ~ against
7,740 in 1875. The liabilities in 1876 aggregated
s1S1 ,7S6, while those of the year preceding
amounted to S201 069 353. The folio wing is an

Financial Equilibrium.

1t is noticed rs curious fact by the Public
of New York, that the fall in prices and the
rise in greenbacks are about the same-tha1
is to say, about seven per cent. The best cal
culation puts the fall in prices during 1876 at
seven per cent. In that period the premium
on gold has been reduced from thirteen to
six, or about the same figure. But this ought
lot to be considered at all strange, as they
are in fact convertible terms, except AS to the
reversal of the process. Paper went down
more rapidly than prices went up when we
first entered upon the paper experiment. In
q sense prices followed the paper AS the
discount increased, the prices of clothes,
board, and all the necessaries advanced. The
altitude which they reached they maintained
long after the reduction of the discount.
Prices resulting from discount of nearly 60
per cent. on greenbacks were charged when
that discount had been reduced to 20 and 13
per cent. But consumption began to fall off.
Stagnation fell on the country. To keep
going, the vast margins of profit heretofore
enjoyed had to be reduced Either this had
to be done or business abandoned. 1t SO hap
pened that prices in this new movement led
the way. They began to tumble before the
premium on gold began to recede. The re-
duction of the discount on paper followed
the fall of prices almost at as long distance
as prices formerly followed the discount.
There is no other phase of the phenomenon
that is strange or novel.

The Jews i'm Palestine.

Mr.. William Knighton writes to the Lon.
don Times: During the early part of this
year was in Holy Land. Everywhere, from
Dan to Beersheba, saw evidence of renewed
energy and activity of the Jewish race. AS
people the Jews are focking back to the
land of their forefathers in great numbers
from all the countries of Europe. In Jerusa-
lem and its neighborhood, particularly, every
plot Of ground for sale is eagerly bought by
them. The Jews are wealthy race. The
Turks, who nominaly govern their promised
land, are greatly in want of money. Would
it not be possible for the Jews to issue among
themselves New Turkish loan, on condition
that they should obtain the right of covering
their own land under the guardianship OF the
great powers of Europe? Would not many
wealthy Christians be ready to assist them in
this matter if the leaders of the Jewish COM
munity throughout Europe undertook it with
some degree Of vigor? A republic or sa-
cerdotal government might be thus established
in Jerusalem, nominally under the Turks still
but really under the guarantee of the great
Christian powers of Europe-a government
which might be of incalculable benefit to
Palestine, in which scarce farthing of pub
lie money is now spent for its improvements
or for the development of its magnificent
natural;zed sources.

New TeleSraphic Science.
{ From the New York World, February 9th.

From the New York World, February 6th]
The newly discovered science of telephony
or talking by telegraph, which has created So
much interest among scientists and practical
electricians of late, has made rapid strides
within the last few weeks in the hands of the
inventor, Professor A. Graham Bell, and his
assistant, Mr.. T. A. Watson. The latest inn
provements enable them to dispense with
batteries altogether and use permanent mag
nets, the electric wave used in transmitting
the sounds being generated by the voice itself.
The importance of this advance is evident to
any one with even a slight knowledge of
telegraphy, as the trouble and expense of
keeping batteries in order has been the great
drawback to the employment of the wire for
private purposes. By this latest discovery
only the first cost of constructing the line and
putting in the instruments is necessary, and
once established the apparatus is virtually a
permanency In recent series of expert
ments with this invention an artificial resis-
tance much greater than an equivalent of the
length of the transatlantic cable was intro
duced, and the articulation of every word was
perfectly transmitted, SO that the inventors
hope to soon be able to actually talk through
the cable.
The Boston Globe says that at the expert
mental rooms in that city lsaiva and Mori, q
couple of japanese students, recently con-
versed with each other over the wire in their
native tongue, to the great enjoyment of the

AnecdOte OF Lincoln.

The following anecdote has been treasured
for years in the memory of Hon. n L. Free
man, Reporter for the Illinois Supreme Court,
and is first given to the public through the
Inter Ocean. 1t deserves to pass into history
in connection with the numerous anecdotes
of Mr.. Lincoln which are familiar stories
throughout Illinois and the West:
Many years ago the Supreme Court of Hi
nois consisted of three Judges, viz: the Hon.
Sidney Breeze, the Hon. John D. Cation, and
the Hon. 0. G. Skinner (recently deceased.
Those three Judges, in their social converse
together, discovered that all three were ma
tves of Oneida county, n. Y. This singular
coincidence, that three men, all from the
same county, should years afterward become
associated as they were upon the supreme tri-
bunal of a great State, was matter of much
remark between themselves, and shortly af-
terward, Mr.. Lincoln entering the room, they
mentioned the curious fact to him.
Said Judge Cation: ''Lincoln, we have dis
covered the singular fact that we three judges
are all natives of the same State and the same
county,
Mr. Lincoln was feeling rather sore over
an adverse decision the court had made day
or two previous in case of his, and his final
response was made in a pleasant sarcastic
reference to that decision.
''Ah!" said Mr.. Lincoln cant! what State
and county was that? %
estate of New York and Oneida county,"
responded Judge Skinner.
ooh, well,' said Lincoln, that accounts
for it. always thought this was Oneidea

Ship.LOads Of butter.
New York Sun, January 9th.l

The market is glutted with butter of West
ern manufacture, and consumers wonder at
its stiff price. Good butter IS sold at from
40 to 45 cents pound at retail, and from 80
to 40 cents pound at wholesale 1t has
been said that the high price of butter is due
to the heavy exports to foreign countries. A
vast quantity was recently shipped to Eng
land, and it is reported that the exports have
more than doubled within year. In round
numbers 100000 pounds were sent to
foreign ports, an increase of 1000, 900 over
the export in 1875. Men who deal extensively
in butter say that it is impossible to clear the
market Of the great quantities sent from the
west to this CITY, and that it is this kind of
butter that is exported at from 25 to 35 cents
pound. Home consumers who want the
best butter, that made in this State, must pay
good prices for it. THE reason why the
best butter is sold at from 40 to 45 cents at
retail" said one of the heaviest dealers yester-
day, is because persons who want good
butter are willing to pay those prices for it.
1t is not true that the expectation of butter
affects the market here. Butter is cheaper
by S. on the 100 pounds than it was at this
time last year."

If the polka has history of its own,
violin just bought by a Russian for 10000
francs has one still more singular and inter-
esting. 1t was sold by the celebrated Stainer
TO Comte de Trautmannsdorf, grand ecuyer
to the Emperor Charles VI, of Austria, with
the following conditions: Count Trautmanns-
dorf paid sixty-six carolus dor (about $3.50,
and engaged to furnish good dinner to Stainer
as long as he lived, 100 florins the first of
each month. complete outfit, with gold
galloons, once year. two barrels of beer,
his lodgings, fire, lights, and, in case he mar
ried, IS many hares as he required for his
table, and two baskets of fruit for himself,
and two for his old nurse annually; and
during sixteen years, that is, as long as he
lived, Stainer enjoyed all these advantages.
