Reaction.

It seems to be a fundamental principle
in human affairs that one extreme invaria
bly, succeeds another, as in nature calm
follows or precedcs a storm, so in the com.
mercial world and in financial matters.
The hurricane OF 1873 is fresh in our
minds, and its tracks are still visible and
its sad monument will remain for warn
ings for those that are to come along after.
Whatever may have been the cause, we
have all felt the blighting withering breath,
and have long looked for the lifting Of this
CO Llmercial SIMEON.
Dakota and North. western iowa. and
portions OF Minnesota have had added to
their share of the general depressing effect,
the local curse of an almost total destruc-
ton Of their only base Of operation for
successive years. and have thus been sub.
jccted to more serious drawbacks than
older and more wealthy portions Of the
great west. This blow was too effective to
to recover from at once, even if the eastern
portion where our capital comes from
should recover from its financial stagna.
ti)n.
Commercial reports state that the
month OF June just past has been without
a parallel tor dullness in twenty years, and
ye: many of US supposed the bottom had
been touched long since, and particularly
when the fact WAS known that money was
drug in eastern vaults, and was seeking
healthy investments. The causes we're nu
merous but it is generally conceded that
the principal cause was the large decline
in agricultural values.
The indications that the war in Europe
was ended, and that the result Of the peace
congress would be what its name implied,
sent wheat tnmhling twenty cents bush,
ell, and during the last month also pork
went lower than at any period during the
last 80 days.
So much for what the farmer produces
other articles were affected in almost like
proportion. Lead for instance was worth
but little over one cent pound in The
lead districts, and iron is much lower than
1t could be manufactured for in the days
Of gold currency, but that will rise as the
demand is increasing.
Congress also had its share in the sink
ing effect, business men were apprehensive
what it might do, as some Of its new mem
he-s seemed bound to do everything bu
| what was reasonable. I: repealed the
bankrupt law, and only tinkered the re
sumption act
Now reaction has commenced, and fav
orsbly too. Pork has jumped up twenty
per cent within the past week, and the
great base OF our national wealth, the farm
er's crop, bids fair to excel that OF any
previous years both in Yield and acrea !:
1t appears unquestionably to our mind
that we are out of the breakers aud cleal
! sen ahead; with our sad experience AND
the timely warnings, no individual or ma
tion, were ever better prepared to welcome
appreciate or profit at the happy reaction
that we will now daily witness. and the
farmers Of this portion of Iowa and Dako
ia can heartily rejoice that the worst il
over and the dark day is to De followed b,
the BRIGHT sunlight Of prosperity.

AMERICAN TRAVELLERS.

1t used to be that American travellers in
Europe were proverbial for the lnvishness
OF their expenditures. They threw money
around as though they had IN unlimited
supply at home, and as a matter Of course
were very speedily taught that the sharp
landlords and dealers in European countries
regarded them us legitimate geese to be
plucked of every feather. Those who in
dulged this extravaganza labored under the
impression that such a display Of prodigal-
ity would induce respect. But they have
nov learned that access to polished society
is not to be gained by merely throwing
money away, and that the avenues TO the
respect and esteem Of those whose respect
and esteem are worth possessing are not
thrown opon at the mere vulgar display of
wealth. The sensible American traveller
finds that, while niggardlincss Is not to be
commended. neither is wastefulness, and
That he gets along much more comfortably
II he looks a little to his own interest, than
II he intrusts his purse to the fieecings of
sharp Europeans. Shoddy has been sub
daed. "
