mpre and more encouraging accounts
1 of preparations based upon the crops
already secured and those to be.
The Chicago Tribune, reviewing the
wheat prospect, states that the -four
States of Kansas. Iowa, Wisconsin
and Minnesota aggregate 7,000.-
/ 0O0. bushels this year. against 61,-
100000 in 1876. and SO. 600, 900 in
1875. -''These figures, showing that
the four States above mentioned win
have, say 56.0O0.0O0 bushels more
to sell than they had last year. may
oe relied upon as being as near cor
rect as the very best information
can make them. They are made
mainly from the reports and esti-
mates OF the National agricultural
bureau" The crop Of California
will be 100000 bushels short, but
that of Michigan, Kentucky, India-
ma, Ohio and Tennessee is estimated
to exceed by $4,000, 900 or 40, OOO,.
900 bushels the crop Of last year,
giving us clear. excess over last
year west ofthe Alleghenies of i80,-
100000 bushels. This surplus, at
the advanced prices. will yield over
Sl0O,000,000 in eastern ports in .ex-
/
cess of receipts for wheat last year..
and will net the farmers clear in
crease of fifty million dollars in pro-
fits. fsThe amount of commerce, -
says the Baltimore Bulletin, (which
this Increase in crops should set free
and the degree of stimulus it will
afford to industry are not to be light
ly calculated The tangible increase
of wealth that will come from such

much more than any stock move
ments could do, that revival of trade
for which we are all hoping so fer

Inter-Oceam says: collections
from the interior are improving. in
dicating that farmer are already be-
ginning to realize On the present
years crops. and they are investing
the money thus secured in needed
supplies The Times confirms this
in the statement that 'strade is much
more active than year ago, and it
is the universal opinion that the fall
movement will open considerably
earlier than in ordinary years, sew
eral leading industries having alrea-
dy begun to exhibit an unexpected
degree of life.'' Tie Cincinnati
Price Current, watchful sentinel,
says: "The demand for goods is
comparatively light as yet, but it is
an earnest of what may be expected
as the season advances, for stocks
OF goods in the country are light and
will need to be replenished.' In
st. Louis trade has been very good
since the strikes ended, and the out
look for the fall is regarded as more
favorable than for many years
Louisville also sends out encoura-
ging views of a future, predicated
upon a presently very encouraging
trade. South and west of Memphis
the indications are even more hope
full, and all along the Gulf and South
Atlantic coast the people seem to
be sanguine that the good time SO
long talked Of is about TO dawn. In
our own and the States of Missis>
sippi, Alabama and Georgia the
prospect is very encouraging. The
statements of leading Pacific papers
and those Of the Dominion give as
surance ola good business and bet
ter as likely to come before winter
sets in. In Baltimore the influe nee
of good crops is beginning to be
made manifest in some departments
OF trade. and the Philadelphia NORTH
American speaks of multiplying evil
denees of improvement in that city,
and thinks the outlook is certai My |
presenting a brighter appearance.
Such seems to be the view. taken by |
most merchants and business men.
Tie New York Bulletin, speaking
for the great mart, says that with
but fortnight of the summer re-
mining, the season is now far enough j
to enable one to forecast |
with some sort ofcertainty the fall /
trade. Without seeking to place
upon current indications a more "a
vorable interpretations than they
will fairly bear, it can safely be said |
that the outlook continuesaquite as
promising as, all things considered,
ought to be expected" And the
Boston Globe says the aggregate of
the trade transactions there are fair
for the season, and that '.the situa-
ton may be reported as growing in
cheerfulness, with a feeling Of conf
dence taking possession of the more
energetic and progressive business
