WHAT the New York Express says in the
following of New York is in a very great
degree applicable to Dallas. II Express
says; Household expenses were seldom
higher than at the present time. The con-
tinued drought has sent up the prices of

far beyond the reach of the poorer classes,
and there is every indication that there
will be much suffering during the coming
winter 1t is rich harvest for the butch
ers and grocers, but the great mass of the
people feel the advance in prices very seri-
ously, while the clearinghouse heepcr

TIE MONTY PANIC.

Much speculation is INDUCED throughout
Texas and the other states of the south
as to whether or not the money panic re-
ported from the east will affect the south
and west Some are inclined to believe il
will, and that the south especially may ex.
pect to suffer. On this question we must
suggest that the effect of panic in the east
upon the sections mentioned depends alto.
gether upon the nature of the panic, and
the causes to which it is attributable. II
the panic is caused by n withdrawal OF
money from the United States to replenish
the circulation of another country, then the
effect is not simply upon the eastern money
market, but may extend throughout the
entire union, in tn. lesSening of our entire
circulating medium. Also, il this panic is
caused by some failure in crops, the south
and west arc likely to suffer. We, of the
two sections named, would still further feel
the effect Of any heavy failures among the
heavy spectators of the east; for upon
them depends, to some extent, the prices
OF commodities upon which the south and
west depends. On the contrary, if this
panic is caused by q withdrawal Of money
from the east to supply the democrats OF
the south and west, the panic must affect
the east alone, and the other two sections
will find their financial condition growing
easier from the panic instead of WORSE
Fort Worth Advance.
