Duration of Business Depres.
sion.

Have we since 1873 been passing
through commercial crisis unpreceden-
ted in the history of this country? Have
we sunk so deeply into the "slough of
despond" that the chance of extricati0n
Is very remote? Will the reaction in
prices and the shrinkage in values in all
their force be permanent? A compari-
son with the panic period of 1888 and the
several years following is suggestive on
these points. Something like five years
have now elapsed since the PRESENT de-
preston began, and correspondent of
the New York Bulletin thus presents the
contrasts:
"The amount of capital in this coun-
try in 1887 and the number of persons
engaged in business of all kinds were
much smaller than in 1872, but the de-
struction to credit and the sacrifice of
property was comparatively, far great
er, and after the lapse of five years there
was nothing like the vitality in business
and firmness i'll prices and abundance of
unquestionable credit that exist at the
present time. In 1S43 cotton was selling
at four cents, lowest price for fifty years;
pork at 81 to s5 per barrel, with forced
sales. at So. Shipments of beef were
made to the West Indies at $3.50 for new
and at So for old, and -four was retailing

| cost the purchasers in 1886 from S35 to
$40 per front foot, sold in 1913 at So 80

part, say in Hamilton and Wallace
streets, which in 1885 sold for S25 per
front foot, in lS43 brought from 81 to 81 80
only. These evidences of conunu
panic, you will perceive, were over five
years from its commencement in fact,
there was great dullness in most depart
ments of trade for years after, and no
substantial relief until about l848."

A Valuable Spring.

The editor OF the jacksonville, Fla
Union lately took trip to the Roaring
Magnetic Spring in that nighbourhood
He described it as a most beautiful little
grotto, forty by fifty feet In dimension
with fall over dam of four feet. The
water boils up from the earth in waves
at the rate of about two thousand gallonf
a minute, and is highly impregnated
with chalybeate and sulphur. A strip OF
copper attached to a piece of deal, and
thrust into this spring, makes a gooc
galvanic battery, sending the electric
fluid all through the system.

AN INSTANTANEOUS CURE FOR BURNS
1t is comparatively new discovery. and
we fear that everybody has not heard of it.
that the application OF bicarbouate OF soda
which is the simple cooking soda To be-
found in all households or other alkaIies in
neutral form, will afford instantaneous
cessation Of pain from the severest burns
or scalds, and that in all cases of merely
superficial burning the treatment would
effect cure in the course of a few hours
BicarbOnate Of soda, that is common cook
ing soda. has been found the most efficient
ui the alkalies for the purpose in most
cases, and has the additional ADVANTAGE of
being alwaysaC hand in nearly every house
hold. But any neutral allIali will answer
the purpose, the virtue residing in the aka
Unity. a caustic alkali, however, such as
lime or common sal soda. is objections BILE
from its very caustic nature. But lime
neutralized by combination with oil forms
an emulsion, the virtues of which in this
connection are generally known. Other
neutral aikalies are biCar6ona5e Of potash,
bIborate of soda, etc. The alkali is to be
spread over the surface burned which is
then to be covered with wet wooden cfot H.
ana the only care necessary is to keep the
cloth moist until cure is effected In case
OF slight superficial burn the application
OF common soap will generally be sufficient
TO effect speedy care.

There is Trouble in Store

For those who neglect to rectify Irregularities
of the stomach, liver and bowels. which they
foolishly imagine will "come right of them
selves" OF this silly error such persons are
usually disabused by the development OF
some serious chronic malady, traceable TO
what they were pleased to consider trihing
disorder Of the above named associate organs.
Such a elimination is easily avoided. A
course OF llostetter's stomach Bitters invari-
ably has the effect OF renewing the secretivc
action Of a torpid liver, restoring healthy di-
gestion and assimilation, and rendering the
habit of body perfectly regular. The activity
of these all important functions being re-
stored, and the entire sy stem toned and regu-
lated by this Incompatible corrective and
invigorant, no danger to the general health
is to he apprehended from causes which, II
not cradcaIed in time, will assureGly under
mine it.

"WuERE THE WooDBINE TwINETu.'-
Speaking of Jim Fisk one is reminded of
that expression so frequently used by
him, "Gonc where the woodbine twineth."
The origin of this was rather peculiar.
Fisk attended to the sailing Of the sound
steamer every afternoon, and then made
direct for his usual haunt Of splendid
rcvclry, which was Dclmonico's, in Fifth
avenue. His best route brought him to
Sixth avenue, corner Of Thirteenth street,
where stood building covered with
greenery, and called the "Woodbine."
1t was popular drinking house, and it is
said that some of Fisk's cronics were
among its patrons. 1t thus became n
common thing for him when asked con-
corning any one to reply, "Gone where
the woodbine twine,h.' This year the
Woodbine yields to the inevitable law of
mutation. The house is demolished, and
all its memories and associations TO carry
out the same figure) are "gone where the
woodbine twineth."
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1878-07-18

OF the late Miss Catherine Bcecher,
the Hartford Courant says, in speaking
of her great interest in sociology, that
"she was whole Social Science Associa-
ton in permanent session. Miss Beecher
had mind Of original vigor, but with
out much imagination; and perhaps
it was the want of imagination that made
some OF her schemes for doing good i'm
practicable. She had good deal of
racy humor and mother w.t. she had pa
tience, magnanimity, rare in her sex, and
unbounded good nature. She was most
entertaining companion, alert, suggestive
and her talk was full of fresh comments
on persons and things without the least
bitterness or malice. But she made
her own common sense the standard of
Judgment, and doubted the value Of any
thing not commended by that"

A SIGN on house on Croghan street
informs the public that washing is done
there, and it was quite natural that me-
chanic working near by should take "a
bundle under his arm aud call there and
ask of the boy on the step; "Bub, is the
washwoman in2' "No, sir" was the
prompt reply-"there's no washwom-
an here at ALL" "But that sign says
washing done here" remarked the man
"Spose it docs2' remarked the boy, in "A
higher key-"spose it doesl A lady may
become the victim of unfortunate circum-
stances TO such an extent that she is will
ling to wash and iron shirts and sheets,
but that doesn't make washwoman of
her, does itl" 81 thought it did," said
the man. "Hump! If you draw buggy
down to the shop to be repaired, does
that make horse of youl" The man
was silently turning away when the boy
added: aft you want to find the lady

to the side door, bun the washwoman ism t

The HIP PoCKEr.-There is no dodg-
ing the new law against carrying con-
cealed deadly weapons. 1t is mandatory,
ana not left to the discretion of Jury.
Whoever is convicted of carrying con
cealed weapons must suffer both fine and
Imprisonment. There is no way of pay
ing out or lodging the penalty. Money
will not suffice, but the rich as well as
the poor must endure the punishment.
After one years trial of this measure we
are satisfied it will show good results,
There will be fewer brawls in which the
pistol or knife is used, and all rowdies
or ruilians will have to go back to the
settlement of difficulties by rough-and-
tumble fist and-skull fights. Chairs and
champagne bottles will be favorite wcap-
ons in barroom wars, aud hickory canes
and axhandles in the open streets. We
think the blood record of Kentucky will
be much lighter during the next twelve
months than it has been for years. Few
persons will be willing to take the risk of
being caught with concealed weapons,
and many disturbances that grow out of
passion and intemperance will be aver,ed.

The AutOcrat of Credit in New York.

John Brown has been in the Stewart
concern for a quarter of II century or
more, and has risen to a very important
position in the palace of fashion. He is
quiet looking man, of courteous man
ners, and is one of that class ordinarily
called "shop-walker.' Mr. Brown,
however, has a vastly more important
duty than ordinary men of this class. He
is the autocrat of credit, and has for years
studied the vast range of high life, with a
view to know the ability to pay. He has
list of the substantial portion of the beau
monde, and also one of the doubtful
class, to which is added general and
rapid view of the trash which fits about
the world of show. Every year Brown
makes out II new list, but such is the
change in social life that each month
calls for fresh inspection. Brown has his
"tickler" Gas the book is called in COM
mercial parlance) but he carries its con
tents to II very large extent in his head,
and he is ready when any lady's name is
mentioned to give an immediate reply.
Hence it is very important for fashionable
shoppers to be in good odor with the au-
tocrat of credit, and money is the favor
able tale poured into his ear by importu-
nate ladies, but when duty requires it he
is hard as flint. Many of those who for
merly paid cash now want credit, and
there are ladies who run bills at Stewards
of 5000 in a year. The collector is
out all the time. He walks about fifteen
miles day, and takes on an average
hundred refusals to ten that pay. This
kind of business is undesirable, but it is
found to be unavoidable, and the collec-
tor learns a sad lesson Of the falsehood of
the fashionable world. No doubt it was
much the same in Pope's day, for he tells
of one "who paid tradcsman once to
make him stare" A very liberal credit
is also given by modistcs and millners,
who must sell their goods or be stuck
with questionable stock. Stewards con-
Germ is making incessant efforts to retain
a first-class position, but it has severe
rivalry. The fashionable world is now
turning toward the cheaper places of
trade, such as Sixth and Eighth avenues.
Macy's great establishment on the Sixth
avenue has taken an immense amount of
trade from Broadway. - Correspondence Of
Cincinnati Gazette.
