COMING PROSPERITY
The Spring Bringing with IL = General
EeyfyaI in Business, That
Promises
Results 90 financial aud industrial
Interests Similar 10 Those
OF 1850.

NEW York, April 5.-The Tribune in
fnancial article says that as the spring sea
son advances il becomes more apparent that
the country is experiencing revival ID buzi-
ness, which promises results 10 financial and
industrial interests duriog 1888 similar to
those attained during the phenomenal year
1880. A solid basis already exists on which
to build this expected improvement. The
great harvests of 1882 10 this country and the
partial failure Of the crops in Europe have
made this secure. The Uniled 5 ates has
ready market for their domestic products.
The excess Of our ex ports over the imports
amounts TO Ss8, 565, 133 for the first eight
months of the current fiscal year 1928,
This means that the great agricultural sec
Iious of the West and South have added to
their wealth enormously, and will have an
abundance OF money TO purchase OF the nee
essaries OF life, thus ;insuriog a prolonged
season OF activity to the manufacturing and
other leading interests OF the East. The
marketing OF laEt years crop Is stiil going
on, and for several morth5 to come the
exports Of domestic products will probably
show heavy increase as compared with the
movement of last year. The railroads are
pro6ting by this safe of affairs, and in many
sections of the country the earnings Of roads
are without precec ens. There is every reason
to look for co-tiruance of large ratic. The
preparations to tnt ct increased trade are
active through the West and South. The
fact that railroads al prosperipg il sufficient
TO insure confidence in many branches of
Industry. The crop prospects for the current
year are looming up az leading topic OF
discussion in financial circles. The accounts
from abroad as TO the outlook for the crops
in Europe render it most certain that not
only Great Britain, but the Continent will
be greatly pendent on the United States
for food supplies during this year, and the
first six months of 1884. Some apprehen-
sions which existed concerning winter wheat
in California have been allsyed by the ad
vices Of recent rains in that Stale. But for
this timely change the California crops would
undoubtedly have been heavily short, as it
is the increased acreage planted may enable
the State to come up with an average corn
crop. In the North west and Southwest the
prospects are considered excellent. The
immigration 10 those sections last yearswIll
lead to the opening up OF vast area OF virgin
soil TO cultivation, and hence the belief OBJ
tains that with favorable weather the harvesls
Of the country will be even more bouniiful
than those of last year. The return of the
local money market TO a normal condition
wilt give an impetus 10 the financial and
naerch sndise markets in the early future and
b . already led to an increased demand for
securities. Generally speaking, a hopeful
feeling prevails and that there is good rea-
son for 1t is amply attested, not only by the
facts already mentioned, but by many other
facts of minor impori sDce.

The MEXICAN GENITAL RAILROAD

! HE MEXICAN GENITAL RAILROAD.
Amid the many matters demanding the
attention OF the American citizen at the pres
ent time, our approaching close communica-
ton with Mexico, by means of railroads,
must not be forgotten. Important results
will follow the increase OF intercommunica-
tiou; advantages will arise and dangers have
10 Re faced that do not at present exist, and
it is therefore Of the utmost importance that
the two nations should begin right. Mistakes
made or Misunderstanding ergendered at
the outset would for a long time prevent the
construction Of the railroads having that
happy eisct upon our commerce. we have a
right TO anticipate. 1t is especially with
respect 10 the proposed treaty with Mexico
that a liberal, generous and just spirit
should be manifested. Monopolists and
schemers are already at work; it must
BE- our part, as nation, 10 show
the MsxioAns thai, whatever iTiekrry indi-
viduals may be guilty Of, the United States
in their national capacity will act only as
Integrity and high sense of honor requires
The Mexicans are fewer in number and
weaker in power than ourselves, facts that
should iucite forbearsnce and kindliness on
our part. 10 the meantime the work OF
constructing railroads TO connect the two
countries is going on, and within two years
We may expect to be able to enter and tray
erse Mexico freely as we now travel in
Canada. Maj. D. B. Robinson, who was
formerly superintendent of the Mobile divi-
sion of what is now the Louisville and
Nashville railway, and is now the general
superintendent Of the Mexican Central rail
way, was in New Orleans on Thursday last.
and in an interview with the reporter of the
New Orleans Times Democrat, he gave the
following information respecting that road
Within the two last years he has constructed
the Sonora railway, which extends from
Guaymas, on the Pacific, to Nogales, where it
intersects the Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe, a distance of 265 miles. This road passes
through mineral, agricultural and graz ng
! snds. Granger, lines, lemons, pomegran-
ates, fgs, grapes, ounces, peaches, wheat,
corn and sugar can ali grow along the line.
OF the mines near the line the Brietas yields
$4,000 in gold month. Several silver
mines are worked, and now the road is there
others are opening, and several stamping
Mills are employed there. There is plenty
If water, and cultivation is mostly by irri-
,ation. Mr.. Robinson il now engaged on
he Mexican Central, which is building from
he City of Mexico north, with 1926 miles
and from FL Paso south with $40
niles finished, the remainder, 900 miles, it
8 expected to complete by July l, 1884. The
sbor employed lie principally Mexican; the
nen work well, and the relations with them
