THE STATE OF BUsINEss,

The circular just issued by R. G. Dun < Go. contains much that is interesting and important. The figures of failures for the entire country for each year afford perhaps the best indication of the e'condition of com merce that is furnished. The mercantile fail ures in the United States, during the year 1880, were in number ,735, with liabilities aggregating nearly 66 millions of dollars The failures for 1879 were in number 6,65O, with liabilities of 9s millions. The decrease, therefore, for the past year, is 1923 in num- Der, and in liabilities 27 millions-thus show ing an improvement equal to 40 per cent. in number, and a saving in losses by bad debts in the same proportion. While the compar- ison of the last year with the previous one is so extremely favorable, the comparison of 1880 with 1878 is even more remarkable. In 1878 the failures numbered 1o,47s, while in 1880 they numbered only 4, 735, indicating n lessened number of casualties by 5, 743, equiv alent to nearly 60 per cent. But in the amount of liabilities the change for the bet ter is even greater, for in 1878 the indebted ness of those who failed was 234 millions
 A table is given in the circular showing the geographical distribution of commercial casu- alties for the last year. This table contains the following

 From the Elizabeth City Economistl
 For an island twelve miles long and two wide, and inhabitated by seven hundred peo- pie, Roanoke Island has been as loud a spot as any of the same number of square inches on the globe. It has been full of sensation from the jump; and from the birthday of Virginia Dare in 1535, to the bully fight last Friday, in which birds, beasts and women bore hand period of near unto three hun dred years, it has seldom been without an eye opener in the shape of a sensation. It has been the scene of bloody fights between hostile Indian tribes and between civilized armies in hostile array. Savage and civilized relics of remote ages and modern conyulsions are hidden beneath or wave washed upon the surface of it's golden sands. Indian forts and cairns and tumui attest it's hoary history.
 AbeTs pet dog that sings in church meet ings and the canary that praises itself in par rot English attest the attainmepts of it's beasts and birds in polite accomplishments. Lewis Mann's sixty alligators, matched and reared in potato house. attest the fecundity of Lewis imagination. Two miles from the shore, at apoint at the gateway to Oregon, lie luscious bivalves Wild fowl of every name feed upon it's grasses. It's men are of the best specimens of stalwart manhood, it's women of feminine loveliness.

A flock of fat geese invited his eye and tempted his taste. The glance was father to the thought, and down he bounced. The feathers flew, the geese squawked and there wasa sensation in that farmyard-and there was dog there too. goose is put down as fool, but it is a vulgar error. A goose is particularly smart fellow. And so was this one the eagle struck in Walter Coughs yard. As soon as struck the goose ran under the house (which was some feet above the ground) with the eagle fastened to her back and the rest of the flock following in hot pursuit. And there the fight grew fast and furious. Forty biting and Tapping geese on one side, and the king of birds on the other.

The products of America are making much trouble in the old world. The fishermen in some districts of Germany are feeling the need of protection against American salmon. They have been accustomed to supply Metz, Strasburg, Brussels and other cities both within and beyond the borders of the German empire with all the salmon (home -caught) needed by them, and upon this trade they have been dependent for q meagre living The American fish, caught in enormous quan- titles and put up with all the best appliances, now comes into the European market at a much lower price, and seriously disturbs the business of the German fishermen. The competition has already reduced the price of the German salmon nearly one-half

Village Improvements.

Governor Bigelow, of Connecticut, in his
 recent inaugural address, did @ very wise thing in formally introducing the subject of l rural improvements to the good people of that State. In this matter he has taken the lead of other States and set noble example | to them all. His suggestions should have l and will have great influence in all directions Mir. B. G.. Northrop, secretary of the
 Connecticut Board of Education, has l probably done more than any other man | in the country to stir up the peo- pie in regard to rural improvements" /" He has lectured on the subject in all parts of this State, and elsewhere when called upon, and has been the means of organizing large number of village improvement societies, which are now in active and very successful operation. He means to see one State, at
 least, rendered very attractive by such public
 Improvements will make 1t more than ever
 the joy and praise of the people. The work
 begun, will not be likely to stop, for every
 step is appreciated alike by old and young,
 male and female, rich and poor.
 The way to keep young men and young
 women at home is to make home more and
 more attractive. The cost of such work, either public or private, is comparatively lit tie, and the owners of property particularly should heartily encourage every step in this direction, as of the greatest importance. Gov ernor Bigelow thus speaks of the matter re- ferred to:
 s'Closely connected with the matter of edu- cation is movement for rural improvement which has been begun in this State, and which has, under individual and private encourage ment, attained considerable importance and is worthy of support. It is the endeavor by local associations to beautify in all reasonable, simple and inexpensive ways our smaller towns and villages This is not a subject which will come before you in your legisla- tive capacity but desire to allude to it in appreciation of what has been done and to express a sense of the value which such a d has. It tends most directly to the cheerful, intelligent and enduring happi- ness of our people that their surroundings should be such as to attach them to their homes and to the communities in which their homes are placed. It also makes our towns attractive places, in which strangers may settle, and renders the remembrance of them the pleasanter to the large number of guests which our shore towns in particular are called upon to entertain. This movement owes its /, and its progress to the efforts of he present secretary of the State Board of Education" "
