The Torrent OF Prosper
1ty.

Nobody has an honest doubt
inst now as to the reality of the
business revival which commenced
less than ninety days ago, but
which already aDimates every pro-
ductive interest from the eastern
seahoard to the Rocky Mountains,
The solidity of its foundation is
discovered in the unprecedented
appreciation of prices of every
staple commodity and every arti-
Gle of merchandise in general de-
mand ; and it isnot wonderful that
labor asserts itself and asks for adj
ditional remuneration when it is
discovered that its products are en-
richipg all the markets of the coun-
try, and are still in short supply.
The revivals of trade as now ex-
perienced is phenomenal. Nothing
like it was ever before known in
the history of the country. All
calculation fails to keep pace with
it and falls short of estimating It's
possibiIiti, s. To day we say it is
going too fast, but tomorrow it
outstrips and puts to blush al
former achievements and marks up
it's goods another ten or twenty per
cent, and laughs at all siow-golng
critics. "You may take the arti :
cles at these figures or let them
alone. We prefer that you let them
alone" This is the greeting, and
it expresses the tact If you re =
fuse to pay the price, it is only to
wait till to morrow and pay more,
for no day passes without some ad-
dition to the quotations; therefore
do not put off till to morrow what
you can buy to-day unless you
are willing to pay smartly for waii
ing. We have tried the experiment
and know whereof we speak.
The danger of advancing too
rapidly in this business has been
repeatedly pointed out by the press
aud conservative dealers in all
branches but without effect. No
body heeds the warning. 1t has
come to be believed that no rate OF
advance is too rapid, and possibly
it may not be found so for long
time. Not till the wants of larg =
lY lrcl eused consumption are fully
Supplied, and it is not reasonable
to suppose that the date Of such
an event is near when the foreign
denaud for our products is already
d. aiming European na'lons of their
coin. THIS drain upon them is
bound to contiur q | initely, and
its effect Will lie TO SET all our pro-
ductive forces IN motion and keep
them moving till the course OF trade
is reversed. Snch reyer sal, how
ever, is not among the remote pro-
liabilities Of our grand future.

-Four hours In the Dark.

1t IS humiliating confession TO
make-but geography is pitiless
and our national vain glory must
bow to decree-that for tour hours
in twenty-four the entire. territory
of the United States is deprived of
sunshine. As tho sun goes down
on our fartherest Aleutian Island its
morning rays are just lighting mp
the hllltops of the western coast OF
Ireland, and the whole breadth OF
the Atlantics lies between ms and
daylight, To, ,our Eenian fcitizehs
'this may be another and cogent
treason for annexing the dear little
isle Of the harp and tie shamrock;
but until it is done the cxultant
cry of the Rocky Mountain Pres
tbytefian, that the sun never SETS on
the United States, must be u little
exaggerated. 1t does set every
day, and paradoxieallv, four hours
before it rises. In ahe depth of
our humiliation we Nlay possibly
console ourselves with the r, fAecsioM
/ that the sun really docs shine oaA
the United States, when it is up.

sunlessness day; England is
lucky to get four hours Of sunshine.

Wrecks of earthly hopes aud dreamines
Withered flowers, are thine and mine

state that. hs some Coans wcro

MeIitus bought whatever should be,
in the nets without seeingit. Whou
the nets were brought in, they
were found to contain golden
tripod which Helen, as she sailed
for Froy, is supposed TO have
thrown there. A dispute arose be-
tween the fishermen and tho
strangers rs to whom it belonged.
and, as they could not agree, they
/ took it to the Temple of Apollo
and consulted the priestess as to
what should he done with it. She
said it mus; be given to the wisest
man in Greece, and it was accord
ingly sent to. Bias, who declared
that Thalcs was wiser, and sent it
to him Thalcs sent it to another
one, and so on, hhtil it had passed
through the hands OF all the men.
1t WAS finally sent to the Temple Of
Apollo, where it long remained to
teach the lesson that the wiSest arc
