all Sabbath School Workers are most

provision must be made for paying part
of their expenses. Tt is therefore made

BUSINESS eis booming. That is what tho
wholesale houses say about their trade, and
each day witnesses increased actiuity. But
goods Of every description are lower than ever
before, The largest wholesale grocer in the
city stated to-day that there was not an article
of foreign goods in his line of trade, except
sugars, that was selling at price sufficient to
cover The cost of importation. This statement
will apply to nearly every article of foreign
dry goods, millinery and fancy articles.
This cheering paragraph we find
in the Chicago Eoeni'ag Journal,
which paper has gained the conf
dence of the entire reading public,
by its constant endeavor to present
matters of a public or private nature
in true light. The cry of hard
times seems to be growing fainter
dnily, and soon We hope to see ali
east and west enjoying more pros
perity than has been experienced
since the great rebellion.

BIENNIEL SESSIONS When the
proposition looking to this desired
reform passed the Assembly by such
decided majority, few thought it
possible that the Republican Senate
would fail to concur. Yet, such is
the fact, and upon the Republicans
who coalesced with the Democrats
of the Senate must rest the respon-
sibiiity and odium. Among these, how
ever, we are glad to note our Sena-
tor Campbell is not to be counted.
His votes and influence were given
in favor Of the measure in all its
stages, and no one more sincere
ly regrets its defeat than he. Soon
CT or later, however, the meas
ure will carry, as each year 1T gains
strength. If the people would only
give it the attention it deserves, and
make it an issue in the election OF
representatives, the accomplishment
of it would be speedy. Up to this
time Legislators have been elected
without regard to this subject. 1t
has never been discussed in can
vass, and the representatives arriv-
ing at the capital having no liked
convictions upon the question, are
led to vote against it through Mad
ison influences. which are always
brought to bear heavily whenever
the matter is preached. But the
wicked shall not always triumph.

THE situation in Europe is unim
proved. The fact that England and
Austria insist upon the right Of the
proposed conference of the Powers
to revise every part and stipulation
of the Russia Turkish treaty, has
rendered Russia avcrse to the meet
inc of the Conference, and seems
still predetermined as to whether
there will be q conference at all. In
the meantime, England continues
her war preparations rs if she were
anticipating hostili,ies. To add to
the existing complications, Russia
has officially rejected the application
OF Greece 10 representation in the
proposed Conference, and the qucs-
ton OF dctaching Egypt from Turk
