Business Failures.

According to The figures of Messrs.
Dun & Co., the great reporters Of the
commercial standing Of the country,
the failures and total liabilities of the
last wear exceed those since the panic
and depression from 1875 to 1873 in
elusive. During the past year there
was total Of 6,738, with liabilities
aggregating over SOL, 0O0,0 900. A
comparison yet more pleasant for re-
Election is with the year 1881, when
the list of failures was 1882, and the
liabilities only little over S81, 000,-
600. In looking for cause for this
increase, Messrs. Dun & Co., ascribe
it chiefly ''to the alarming extension
of lines of credit superinduced by an
undue anxiety to dispose Of goods
without a proper investigation as to
ability to pay for them" The largest
number of failures are shown as Oc-
curing in the first three months of
the present year, when more than
One-third of them took place. In geo
graphical distribution, the south shows
one failure to seventy-eight in bust
ness, the Pacific states and territories
one to sixty-eight, Canada one to
seventy-seven, eastern states one to
ia, middle states one to 149, and
western states one to ISL. Despite
the increased number Of failures, due
chiefly it Will be observed to specific
causes rather than to any general en-
berrassment by failure OF crops, sus-
pension of Industries, or other similar
causes, the mercantile agency is most
hopeful for the future. 1t enumeI-
ates briefly the sources of individual
and national prosperity during the
past year-a year of unusual bounty
in grain ana industrial production
and says the legislation of congress
promises to be highly advantageous
to the future ease Of business. In
brief the business Of the country is
generally sound with bright prospects
for the coming year.

Great Loss Of Life and Property on
the Island Of lava.

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-Details have
been received by special from London
of the volcanic eruption resulting in
tidal waves, in the island Of Java,
which began last Saturday night and
still continues. The scene was fright
full, and loss of life and property great.
Some 1000 Chinese, living on low
grounds near Ertran, Batavia harbor,
were drowned by the rising Of the
waves; and out Of $500 Europeans and
Americans living in that city, 800 are
said to be lost. At AMER shower Of
tidal wave, destroyed 1000 people.
Bantam is entirely covered with water
and from 1000 to 1900 persons are dead.
The island Of Serang is submerged,
and all its inhabitants-notst stated how
many-have perished. Several other
places are said to have shared like
fate. Nearly one-half Of the forty vol
canoes ON the island are In . state Of
eruption, or. threatened. 1t is feared
that no section of the island can es-
cape. There has been great loss Of life
and damage to property. The mount
aims in which there has been no erup-
tion since the last century are now in
active movement.
A dispatch from Batavia says the
condition of the Straits OF Sunda is
dangerous to navigation. New islands
have arisen therein and the coast line
is altered. The government Is prepar-
ing to obtain new soundings Of the
straits. Sixteen volcanoes have ap-
peared between the site whore the is
land Krater formerly stood. Sibisic
Island, and . portion of Bantam, 10 an
ashy desert. Cattle are starving and
people are in despair. At Soenzepag
the volcano split in fivs portions.
Seven hundred and four bodies, vic
Tins of the disaster, have been buried
in the district Of Kanard, and thres
hundred In the coast village Of Kra-
mot.
A tidal wave has completely de-
stroyed Angler. Many persons have
been killed. The LOSE Of life IL among
both Europeans aud natives at North
Bantam.
Later atlvices from Batavia are more
hopeful. The eruptions are becoming
less frequent. One of the queer Incl.
dents WAS the sudden rise Tuesday OF
fourteen new volcanic mountains in

plets chain ip an almost straight linz
between PGfht st. Nicholas, on the
Japanese side, and Hoga point on the
coast of Sumatra, almost OH the top OF
what had been the Merak and Middle
Islands, which went into the sea Mon
day.
The captain Of a steamer which was
in the straits of Sunda during the re.
cent volcanic eruption, reports thai
ashes fell on the deck of his ship Ia
the depth of eighteen inches. He
passed masses of floating pumice stone
seven feet deep. He estimated tina,
10000 lives were lost At Tjirlngin. The
total number of killed by eruptiont

Weather Prognostics.

SOME THINGS TO LEARN IN ORDER TO BE-
CONE "wEATHER WISE"
1t is stated that the following prognos-
tics are dndnced fro observations gath
cred from the most reliable sources in Eng
land, embracing liz years, from 1877 to
1889.
/. When the Spring equinox is not pre-
coded or followed by the usual eqninocsial
storms, the lcceeding summer will be dry
at least Eve times in six.
g. If easterly storms occur on the 10Th.
Goth or 2lst of May. the ensuing summer
will likewise be dry; the same characters
tic applies to storms from whatever direc-
ton on the 18th, 26th or 9th of March,
viz: dry summer will follow
8. When storm, happen from or be-
tween the 10 and 23d Of March, having
direc, ions from the west-south vest, the
succeeding summer will be wet five times
out of six. In England, when both win
ter and spring are dry, they are always
cold. but when these two seasons are wet
they are usually warm !; on the contrary
dry summers and autumns are most al
ways hot and wet summers cold; hence if
the humidity Of any special season be de-
termined, an approximately correct idea
may be formed what the prevailing tenn
perature will be.
4. A wet autumn succeeded by mild
winter. is generally followed by IA drv and
cold spring, which will be unfavorable to
the growth of vegetation.
s. A wet summer is most always sue
ceeded by a severe cold winter. because
the terrestrial heat has been carried off by
evaporation; it has also been observed
that wet summers prom ote great profcien-
cy on the white thorn or dagrase, 80 that
An unusual frLitfulness OF the shrubs is
considered presage of an intensely cold
winter.
6. A severe Winter is also indicated by
the early departure ia the Autumn by
cranes and other migratory birds, because
