Tne Most Remarkable Year on re-

Busa1ess Beyond all Precedent
The Products Ofthe SOiI-ghat ia Q
London "TImes,s says.

NEW YORK, December 31.-The Etenin0
E[prsss, in its annual review of the past
year's business of the county, Gays:
Viewed from business standpoint, the
year has been a remarkable one-probabIy
the most remarkable Ia the history of the
country. There has been a great revival In
trade, and the volume OF legitimate business
during the year was beyond all precedence.
This Improved condition OF affairs was the
natural results OF large crops, good export
demands for our products, the growth of
the country, the heavy influx of gold from
Europe, and the complete restoration OF
confidence, growing out CT the success OF
specie payment. One of the most grstifyinp-
features Of 1850 has been the great falling
of in the number OF failures and the
amount of liabilities OF suspended mer-
chants. The growth of the country snd The
large additions to the national wealth
during 1850 are strikingly illustrated in the
ptodncss Of the soil, of which we raised:

to say nothing of tobacco, sugar, rice, heInp,
nav and other crops, and hogs and dairy
pro5ucts, which yield an immense sum OF
money, In the aggregate. In plain words,
Ihe United states now raises enough 10 feed
her own $1,000 600 of people and TO
supply the de fciency to the balance
OF the civilized world. During the year
more miles of railroad have been built,
more cancellations and combinations ha Te
been entered into, more freight aud
passengers have been transported, more
money has been earned, and more interest
and dividend paid than in any former year.
The commerce of the country during the
year has maGe rapid progress, and caused
the United States to take still higher rank, ,
being now the third among the commercial
nations of the globe"
LONDON, December Sl-The Iygaes in its
finaucial article this morning Gays: "The
year Of 1850 has been one Of solid business
in most directions, and OF foolish specu-
latsons in very few. The beginning
only OF the speculative period has been
reached, and 1t may be years before we
reach its height. From all appearances,
both Franco and the United States are far
ahead Cf US In this direction. On them,
principally, the duration Of time of quiet
business activity would seem to depend.
Tee prodigious absorption Of capital in
public works now going on IN France may
lead TO temporarily unpleasant results to
spectators for rise, but the new year will
be begun hopefully, and such is the temper
Of the Stock markets that a still higher
range OF prices need surprise nobody"
