SAN FRANCISCO, April Is, 1880.
There can be no question but that the recent
copious rainfall has given great heart to business,
and that there are hopes of a revival in the near
future. But this feeling has been fully as much
stimulated by the recent overthrow at the polls of
the disturbing political element.
The outlook now is that capital will shed some of
its timidty, and that investments will be quite
literally made; at least this is the hope, and it
seems to have some basic foundation in reality

that other shippers are at present erecting wharf
and large grain warehouse near Martinez, at
point called TT Costa, where they ex-

season. free OF wharfage. At Benicia still other
shipping merchants expect to have warehouse and
wharf accommodations erected upon a large scale,
where they also expect to load their ships free Of
wharfage. These several wheat depots con-
nected with the railroads that permeate all paris of
the wheat growing sections OF the State and in this
way they seek to save much expense that is now
incurred by loading their yesse in this city.
Wool comes in slowly, and quotations stand at
rates last quoted Exports for the week have been
very liberal.
In moneyed circles there is better feeling Local
securities are in active demand, and considerable
