THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

large number of representatives of vari- ous trades in New York city have been in terviewed by reporters of the New York Times concerning the business prospect. They included gentlemen prominent in the manufacture and sale of clothing, in the dry goods trade, in the boot and shoe trade, in millinery and hats, in general groceries, in the hardware and in the drug trades. Almost without exception the statements were marked by confidence and hope. The view is general that, though the margin of profits is smaller and the money value of sales is less, the amount of goods sold this year is nearly as great as last year, and in some cases considerably greater Purchases are made in smaller quantities, but more frequently Credits are nota- ply reduced, but payments are more prompt and sure. Greater caution is ob- served as to overstocking, but the demand is steady and the movement regular and healthy. The expectation of those most familiar with the situation is that the net re- suit of the years business, when the usual annual inventory is taken in January, will be decidedly more satisfactory than it has been for the last two years
 What these gentlemen say is encouraging, and it is also reasonable. The Times sees the situation as follows: Whether ''hard pan" has been touched on Wall street or not it is impossible to say, but that it has been reached in general commerce, and that the tendency is now definitely and decidedly though not strongly, in the opposite direc- ton there is no doubt. Ultimately the course of prices on the Exchange will follow in the same way. Hap oily there is not much prospect of immedi ate and rapid rise, and the change for anything like an extensive "bun" speculation in the street is remote. But the evidence is clearly preponderating in favor of the substantial value of the principal se- curities there. The difficulty of obtaining money for legitimate trade upon available collateral is likely to diminish rather than to increase. The general prospect is now more definitely encouraging than it has been in the last twenty months.
 Confidence, as the old copy-books used to say, is plant of slow growth. But it is un- occasionally growing in business circles, and affairs will be 'fhumming" again before very 1onn

COMMUNICATIONS.
The Churches on the Green. thEa Eliitna. tlnn Icr-r,,r CcIr.aI1rE

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 We have been patiently watching and di- gesting the several comments in our city papers in relation to the proposed addition to the United church and would now like to ask a few questions and state @ few facts. Several years ago, I am told, the Center church society asked permission to build their chapel on the Green, but being refused built their present chapel on Chapel street We are also informed that Trinity had the same experience. Now we are told ''the United church should be granted their petition because Trinity is building on an addition to their audience room" Where is the difference in their de- mands? The United church asks for land to build their chapel on, not for simply an ad- dition to their audience room. If this per mission is granted them why shouldn't the Center and Trinity have the same grant and so sell their present chapels and bring in the city Ca revenue of taxesF' We do not write this out of any malice, but we do fail to see the right to occupy any more of the Green for church chapels.

England is credited with the intention of general official adoption of the metric sys tenn. This is sensible intention to have.

 In the 58 Provinces of European Russia there are 19, ,674, 723 horses, of which mum Der nearly 6,000,00O are in the military cir cle of Kazan. Complaint is made that too many horses are exported from the country. The number exported in 1879 was 1000, in 1880 it was 24, ,O00, in 1882 it was B, ,269, and last year the number is believed to have reached 45,000. It is proposed that an ex- port tax of 50 gold rubles on every horse valued at under 300 rubles be imposed.

THE CAMPAIGN


 Said Belva Lockwood, I'm the straight But confess would withdraw
 If any proper chance saw.
 Now could find some handsome man Whom could call at toss of fan,
 Erect of mien and clean of limb,
 could withdraw and favor him.
 Forthwith stepped out from 'mongst the men The sylph.like form of Uncle Ben.
 ''Behold!'' he cried, with unctuous leer, I'm your Apollo, Belva, dear New York millionaire-"A Are the girls locked up for the night, wife?' "Yes." " "Coachman chained?" FYes'' "Has the patent butcher-catcher i'll the front yard been oiled so that it works wellN' ''Yes. D "Well we might as well chloroform the gar dener and go to sleep. Chicago Tribune.

 1T tell you what, ''airily exclaimed Perkins, as he sat down to the supper table, q was in tight place this afternoon" "Yes, 1 know you were," interrupted his wife, in clear cold utterances that cut like knife; q saw you coming out of it.' And then it flashed across Perkins mind that he had in- cidentally stepped into saloon with friend for the purpose of examining doubtful political statement with the aid of magni- lying glass, and his contemplated anecdote slipped from his grasp like money at a sum- mer resort, while his supper was finished amid silence so profound that he could plainly hear napkin ring.-Rockland Courier.
 A SHOCKING TRAGEDY.
 Only a dog, but he waited there
 By the picket fence in the chill night air He needed not the dying day,
 He'd job on hand, and came to stay. He had seen strange pup an hour before, Boldly enter the parlor door;
 He had seen his mistress feed him on pie And regard him, withal, with a kindly eye. And the dogs heart hardened; he feared that he No longer a petted doggy would be;
 So he vowed revenge on the upStart pup, And swore that night he would chew him up Only dude with a stony stare
 Blithely hunming the latest air.
 He anbled along as best he might,
 For his shoes were long and his trousers tight. sickly smile played on his face,
 He sucked his cane with careless grace, And remarked, glass in eye he stuck, Its the softest snap ever struck
 Only howI-it came from the dude
 While calmly the dog the left leg chewed Of the upstart pup who had dared to share With him the gifts of his mistress fair. The poor dude tried in vain to flee
 The dog chewed on with 1endish glss Till naught was left but slender cane To mark the spot where the dude was slain.

medicine. Look it over.
 T have seen medicine more perfectly adapted to it's various applications than Thomas Eclectric Oil. I was for many years sufferer from Quinsy; Thomas Eclectric Oil cured me. My wife and child had diphtheria; Thomas Eclectrfc Oil cured them; and if taken in time will cure seven times out of ten. I confident it is for the most obstinate cold cough, and if taken into the head, by the nostris, two three times week will relieve the most offensive case of catarrh; and not wfthstanding the delicate nature of the mucus membrane of the nasal organs, be taken up with perfect impunity. For deafness and earache it has done wonders, to my certain knowledge It is the only medicine dubbed patent that have felt like recommending, and am anxious to sec it in every place. for I tell you I would not be with out it in the house for any consideration. It also operates in Asthma a specific, and whenever it is used it becomes indispensable to household safety. I ready to give anyone the benefit of my perience and observation, both to it's effects and mode of application, if they will drop note making inquiry

 contained but 1, 764 workmen, and the num-

If also the women and children dependent the establishment are included, 8 population of no less than 65, 381 is gathered together, of which 29, 900 are actually living in houses belonging to the works.

The farmers who grow peanuts in the l southern States have good reason to believe in
 protection. In Virginia, Tennessee, the Car | olinas and Georgia thousands of small farm
 CTS derive their living from the cultivation
 and sale of the popular "goober," To them I it is the most important crop grown, for l from it comes all they have of food, clothing, l home comforts and the education of their I offspring Consequently any considerable importation of the nuts from abroad would affect them seriously But the present tariff laws impose q duty equivalent to over twenty per cent, and the peanut growers of the States Eamed are thereby protected from the strong com petition of the African and West Indian
 nuts that would certainly be largely import ed if it was not for this import tax. There is not a poor man in the South who depends upon the sale of his peanut crop for his main support who is not directly interested in the continuance of the Republican policy of pro
 tection, and to whom the inauguration of
 the Democratic policy of free trade would not prove disastrous.
