1t is not surprising that9 all who were
responsibility connected with-the construc-
ton of the first Monitor should be Jealous
of their share of her fame; and that opn-
ions should differ as TO the comparative
value of the services arcndered in the
creation of Il craft which rcVOlutiOniZed
the war navies OF the Old world and which
has been described rs "the specialization of
forty centuries OF thought of offence and
defence"
Discussion of the subject has been re
vived by a letter which appeared in this
paper last November, from correspond
ent who signed himself "D." who CRITICS
ed not unkindly,the Grafton of Col Alduce
f, Walker delivered. before the Vermont
officers at their last reunion, because he
had omitted to give due credit to "the
two men, John A. Griswold and John f.
WinSlow, of Troy, n. y, whose faith and
patriotism prompted them to advance the
money to build the, Monitor, and who
made The thrifty contract under which
the work was pushed as if for life ."
More recently prominence has been given
to these contractors by Rev. +. b. Wheel
er of Poughkeepsie, y. Y, in a communi-
cation to the MdgnzbtG.O of american Ills
tory, in which he declared that while the
invention of the Monitor was Ericsson's,

Yesterday we published some figures
showing remarkable decrease in the
prices of the necessaries of life, along with
the present moderate falling off in the
wages paid for skilled labor. These two
conditions when co-eXisting are almost an
unfailing sign of Il healthful state of pub
lie confidence. Business can never be
very much depressed, when tlnS ncial con-
ditions adjust themselves in this heathful
and natural manner II wages We're low and
the cost of living high, we might look
with justitiable concern upOua temporary
stagnaton i'll business. But when social
conditions so nicely balance that every
time there is IL tendency for one side of
the scales to 20 up, the other side comedies
enough to restore the poiSe,W think there
is good reason to have confidence and
hope in the speedy return Of better times
That the presenter, perhaps, it would
be more just to say, the rccent-state of
business depression, from which the
country has suffered, was but Il temporary
state, appears already from reports of a
brighter business outlook all over the
country. The signs were such that
it was quite safe to predict such IL
reaction, and its appearance should be
hailed with joy and renewed confidence.
In spite Of the shutting down of mills,
the reduction of wages, and the frequency
of strikeS-which are mere local eruptiOns
of il disease which is rapidly breaking up
there are indications which most Ger
tainly point to better times. The manu-
featuring interests Of the country are the
only business interests which have not re
ported an improved condition during the
past week and from the peculiar rela
tons of capital and labor in these interests
it would naturally be expected that the
disturbances would continue longer in
them than in any other department of in
dustry.
Very encouraging trade reports are re
ceived from the great cities of the North
west. The advance IN wheat is fully sus-
tanned, and reports from abroad indicate
that the export demand will he much
larger than was anticipated early in the
season.
The earnings also of sixty important
railroads for the month Of December last
are reported to be only S63ss less than
during December, 1883. This sum when
divided up would represent in exceeding
" small proportion of loss for each com
pany. And railroad interests are very
good index of the business condition of
the country, because they represent the
average activity of trade in all sections.
When shipments continue to be large and
travel continues steady, the inference is
that business is generally fair, to say the
least.
Furthermore, the financial Chronicle
reports the Clearing House returns to be
very favorable, although it adds that

The Mcpherson bill has been lost, in

creasing the amount of circulation to he
allowed to National banks upon the de
post of United States bonds, from 90 per
cent of their par value to 100 per cent
The bill had pretty strong backing. EN-
Comptroller John Jay Knox said that the
prompt passage of the bill would have Il
good effect upon the business of the coun
try. "Many of the banks" he said, "have
suffered losses during the present fnan-
cal crisis, and such institutions will APP
preciate the relief afforded by the provis-
ion of the bill adding ten per cent of the
amount Of bonds held by them to their
available funds. 1t will be hailed by the
business men of the country as one step
toward furnishing the relief needed to re-
move the business depression, and its fu-
ture effect will be much better than is
generally supposed" But the House in
its collective wisdom thought otherwise.

United States on an occasion of very con
siderable Importance and interest. Gen.
Grant had been removed from the office of
general of the armies OF the United States
from which he would have been retired
when he reached the proper age, and put
on this very list to. assume again command
of the armies of the United States as com
mauder-in-chief under its constitution.
He had not sought it, He had obeyed the
call of duty. That removed him from the
technical place that he had held in the
army to a higher place as the constitution

the law. When his term expired he be
came private citizen. In that state of

The Rutland RCrdld tierCcly attacked
the details of the statury for the proposed
monument-bccause Tor one thing, it sup
posed that General Stark was to he repre-
Sentcd with his sword by his side instead
of uplifted. We vputurcd simply in the
interest of fair treatment of the commit
tee on design, to point ont the fact that
none of the details of the statuary have
been decided on and that the sculptor or
sculptors have not even been selected.
The HCrGld now devotes an article to the
assertion and maintenance of the PROPOSE
ton that it is absurd to put Il statue fifteen
feet tall on the top of a pedestal forty
five feet high. This is quite another mat
ter, which we do not care to discuss. Prof.
Weir and the committee are quite able to
defend themselves if they think they need
defence, and we certainly have not the in
formation needed to undertake any support
of their design. The HCmld says that as
we have not seen the design, we can
not know whether the criticisms it prints
are Just or I'm just. We have not seen
the design but We have seen the report
of the committee, and that shows that no
details Of the statuary have been detcrmn-
ed ON. Even the dimensions Of the statue,
must from the nature of the case be sub
ject to moditicution-for the sculptor,
when he is chosen. will of course he al
