opinions In relation TO prices. aud the conse-
Quence was that sales were restricted, amount
ing to only $50 bales.
There was only moderate business in Flour
to-day, and that was chiefly confined to good
aid choice extras. low grades being neglected
Th@ sales footed up s35 bbls.

| TWO agencies specie commenced to steadily
accumulate, banks were gradually formed,

| the latter holding steady course, with only
slight deviations until values were re-estab-

| History repeats itself, though always with

that in 1837-43 the currency was destroyed in

agitation; the public defalcations; the dis
hOnoring OF municipal and State debts etc
they are oil features of an old acquaintance.
The wreck has been larger simply because
the ediflce was larger.
Practically, we have not dipped into such
depths as in the former panic era, and our
material for reconstruction, whether in money
or other resources is infinitely greater, and
doubtless abundantly ample to secure q Wig
orous renewal OF commercial action and pros
perlty. The time for reconstruction has
doubtless arrived.
