HOsU Business Looks.
New York Sum-

The revival which is now beginning slowly
to appear in business makes itself, perhaps
most apparent in the iron industry. From
all parts of the country in which they are
numerous we hear reports of healthful
state of activity in the foundries, and the
promise that the year is to be one favorable
to the trade. The starting up of this in
dustry, which supplies the means and con-
trivances on which nearly all branches of
manufacture so largely depend, is an encour-
aging indication that the wheels of our fac
tories are again turning with rapidity.
The shoe and leather industry of Massa-
chusetts is also quickening, and trade in
Boston takes on livelier appearance in con-
sequence. Tho low prices of cotton and
wool favor the manufacturers of textile fab
RIGS. but the extraordinary great decline in
the value of their products during the last
two years makes profits small and the dan
gers of the business great, and some of the
largest companies have been obliged to pass
their dividends.
Manufacturing, as whole, however, shows
| decided improvement; and the growing
| reliance of the country on home productions
| to the neglect of foreign fabrics and manu-
factures, and the increasing, if still compar-
atively small, expectation of our goods, are
hopeful signs.
| 1t cannot, however, be denied that the
recent rapid and unparalleled success In
placing the government 4 per cents furnishes
an indication which does not point to any
very great and widespread revival of bust
ness enterprise. Money would not go 80
cheap if trade was brisk and the rewards OF
| commerce and manufacture were such as to
invite investments.
We observe, on the other hand, that there
is large and steady decrease in the number
of business failures and in the total of the
liabilities of the suspended or bankrupt
firms. The repeal of the bankrupt law helps
to reduce these figures; for prior to its re-
moval from the statutes, the weak and shat
tered firms hurried to take advantage of it,
provisions, and business was relieved of al
element of doubt and uncertainty. Still, i
must be acknowledged that there is prevail
ing an uncomfortable distr5st of the credi
of mercantile buyers, which hampers the re
vival of trade.
The total of failures in the country fol
the quarter ending the 1st of this month
reported as being only 1924, against 3,35
. for the same period last yeur. The pro
portlonate falling off in the amount of liza
bilities of the bankrupt firms. is muc
greater-$43 100000 in 1879, against $82,
; 100000 in 1873.
The reports of retail trade in the city in
dicate that it is improving, and the hotel
bear witness that the number of stranger
in New York is now very large. The seaso
3 of the spring retail shopping has begur
: and it throngs the counters of the principt
and most popular shops. There is an IN
8 usual variety of tasteful fabrics displayed 9
). small prices, and when the sun at last shine
steadily upon us, we shall see the prone
nades gay with women arrayed in tt
brighter plumage of spring.

The Pow er Of Imagin alton.

An acute young surgeon in England
was summoned to visit a very wealthy
single lady, far advanced in years, who
had for a year been suffering from an
alleged bristle Of her toothbrush that
had fastened itself in her throat. She
stated that she had consulted the emf
nent surgeons of London, but they had
uniformly assured her, after critical in
spectiou, that she was only the victim OF
a nervous delusion, that her throat was
perfectly healthy, that the disturbance
was only in her imagination. And so
they 90, the stupid, obstinate, perverse,
unfeeling creatures, continued the poor
lady, saying there is nothing the mat
ter with me, while I am dying, dying,
dying The surgcon caught his cue'
and was equal to the occasion, and after
examining her throat with much dells'
Grafton announced that she was quite
right-Sir Benjamin Brodie and Sir
James Clark were mistaken; he could
see the head OF the bristle low down,
almost out of sight, and it she would
permit, he would run home, get his ih-
struments, and extract it Instantly. -
Certainly; that was the very thing she
was longing for. The surgeon present.
ly returned with a delicate forceps, in
the teeth of which he he held concealed
a bristle from toothbrush. The lady
threw her head back the surgeon intro
duced his forceps-a prick, scream,
and it was old over. The surgeon with
a smiling face was closely inspecting The
extracted bristle. The lady was in rap
lures; she Immediately recovered her
health and spirits, and went about
everywhere sounding the praises oil her
savior as she called the surgeon. so
enthusiastic was her gratitude, she Of
fered him her hand in marriage and her
noble fortune. rE FI

Old Keasel's Epifaph.

Many years ago there lived An old
Indian who had become quite celebrated
as a poet. having written many little
pieces that had attracted attention. He
had been educated in one of the New
England colleges, but subsequently, par
tally relapsed into his former barbarous
state. In later life he travelled through
the country paying for his provisions
and his whiskey by the exercise Of his
poetical talent.
During one year Of his tour he put
up with man by the name of Keascl,
who had long wished for an opportunity
to get the old fellow to write his epitaph.
Accordingly bargain was struck. The
Indian, with all the wariness Of his
tribe, stipulated that after he got his
supper he should give one-half the
epitaph. and the rest aiier he had got
his breakfast in the morning.
Accordingly after supper, he repeated
the first instalment, which read thus.
"Thsre was = man who died oflste,
For whom angela did impatient wait,
with outstr 'chd arms and wings OF love
To watt him to the realms above"
Old Keasel was in ecstacies. He
could think of nothing but his epitaph.
He was almost willing to die for the
sake Of having such beautiful verses
inscribed on his tomb. AL night his
visions were OF the angelic being who
was destined TO carry him to the regions
of eternal felicity. In the morning be
called In his neighbors to hear his
beautiful eptaph, but the poet pro-
ceeded to get ready for starting, appar-
emily having forgotten all about his
promise. He was about mounting his
pony when reminded Of il. Alter q
little reflection he signlAed his ability to
finish the task but as the friends OF his
host had not heard the first part, he
said he would repeat it as preliminary
to the last:
"There was man Who died Of late,
For whom angels did impatient walt
vita outstl 'ch'd srus and wings Of love
To vaft him 10 the realms aboye
But while disputing bout the prize
still lowering round the lower skies
In slipped the devil Ike weasel,
Aud down to hell he kicked old Keasel :"
As he finished he left and old Keasel
after him but the race was equal, and
the poet escaped.

HEAVEN.
Beyond these chilly winds and gloomy skies,
Beyond deaths cloudy portals
There is land where beauty ne, er dies,
And love becomes immortal.
A land whose light is never dimmed by shadss,
Whose fields are ever yernal;
Where nothing beautiful can ever fade,
But blooms for aye eternal.
We may not know how sweet Its balnly air,
How bright and fair its flowers;
We may not bear the song that echoes there
Through these enchanted bowers.
The city's shining towers we may not see,
With our dim earthly vision;
For death, the silent warder keeps the key
That opens the gates elyssian..
But sometimes a-down the western sky
The fiery sunset fingers,
Its golden gates swing inward noiselessly
Unlocked by silent fingers.
And while they stand moment half sjsr,
CLEANS from the inner glory
Stream brightly through the azure vault afar,
And half reveal the story.
Oh, lard unknown, oh, land Of love divine
Father, all wise, eternal,
Guide guide these wandering wty-vorn feet o.
mine
Into those pastures vernal.
