The Mercantile Agency of Dun, Bar
low & Co. have just issued their annual
statement Of failures in the United States
and Canada. It appears that the amount
Of failures in the United States, in 1876,
was Sl0l, ll77SG, against S2Ol, 0GO,35 III
1875. The amount Is certainly extra
ordinarily large; but the fact that It's less
than in the preceding year by ten millions
and that the number Of suspensions oc.
curing in the last quarter Of the year
shows n marked decrease, indicates that
We are at lust getting over the worst ef.
iects Of the panic upon credits. The
number and the money amount of fail
ures occurring in the United States and
in Canada for the last Eve years has been

The failures in Canada for the two last
years are much larger, pro rata to popu-
latiOn than in the United States. In 1876,
the failures in the United States average
ed l,244, goo to every million OF popula-
ton; while in Canada the rate was &C..
$4,000 TO each million; and in 1878 the
proportion was in about the same ratio.
II the same had prevailed in this country
as in Canada, the failures Of last year
would have amounted to S2S7, 100000, or
S9G,OOO,000 above the actual amount.
The average amount OF Indebtedness last
year in each failure is much lower than
for many years previous, as will be illus.
trated by the following statement, in
which, for the sake Of comparison, the

Thursday night of last week, the
seniors had their class supper at the
Addison house. This is an event look
ed forward to by the average student
with great interest, and is one of the
pleasantest spots in college life. After
all, it is the class supper and "spreads"
i'm classmates rooms that make up, to a
great extent, the pleasant memories
that one keeps as he goes forth among
the "madding crowd;" and long after
the ghosts of Juvenal and Lysias have
ceased to haunt him, will the sexagen-
arian happily muse over those scenes of
"mirth and roaring jollity."
