APATRTOTTC TeTRIJTE

The latest rebel yell is the wall of sympathy
which goes up with unanimous voice from
the South for the conqueror at Appomatt
whose generous heart dictated those terms Of
surrender consistent with the honor of their
manhood, and gave them opportunity to
earn living after the war was over. AS the
old soldier lies on his death-bed no sounds
bring more solace to him than these heart
felt tributes from a people whom he con-
quered. There is such a genuine expression
of admiration for his genius and gratitude
for his magnaminity that the most callous
heart could not fail to be touched, and IT is
easy to imagine how the hero's heart must
respond to the respect shown him. All
through the South the churches are Offering
up prayers for his recovery. Confederate
veteran associations are forwarding testi-
monials of respect and sympathy, and the
other day when rumor of his death reached
the capital of Tennessee the legislature adj
iourned after passing appropriate resolutions,
the flags were lowered at half-mast, and the
public buildings were draped in mourning.

ST. PAUL'S TRADE.
What Our Wholesale and Retail Merchants
Have Been Doing the Past Week.

What Our Wholesale and Retail Merchants
Have Been Doing the Past Week.
During last week there has been general
improvement in most lines of business, and
it has caused more activity in the money
market, which is easy at the present time.
The same unusual activity in real estate
continues undated over all parts of the city
suburbs. Many sales have been made, some
of them important ones, and prices are stiff.
The wholesale grocers have been receiving
the usual large orders for general supplies,
with moderately fair collections.
A good general trade has also been done
in dry goods. This branch of business is at
the present time in a very satisfactory con-
dition, spring trade having been quite active
and collections good
The drug market is active, sales for March
largely in excess of same mouth last year
and increasing rapidly. Collections little
slow. Prices still very low, but everyone
seems looking for advances. Grass seeds
firmer as rule, although timothy seed s
coming in freely and price on large lots .s
easier. A good deal Of poor seed has found
It's way into market, low in price, but costly
to those who get it. A new and very po,r
brand of linseed oil is reported, bad in qud-
ity and short in weight. Buyers are cat
toned to look out for all linseed oil with
marked gallons, as genuine is always sold
by weight.
The wholesale clothing houses report a
nice even trade with fair collections.
The wholesale hat and cap business is
growing steadily, and now considerably ex-
ceeds that of last year at this time.
The wholesale boot and shoe houses have
been kept busy with a steady amount Of
orders from town and country, and are vel
satisfied. Leather is steady with firm price,
and fair collections.
An active demand still continues for al
general hardware staples. Guns and ann
munition have had a lively sale for shit
ment to the Canadian dominion.
A fair business has been done in WINS
and liquors.
The commission merchants report business
quiet; they are looking for better times next
week. A good steady trade has been done in
oranges, lemons and apples.
The retail trade has had a tendency to i'm
prove; few days of nice warm weather will
help it wonderfully.

EASTER SUNDAY

To-day Is the Christian passover or festival
in celebration of the resurrection of our LORD.
Easter has been observed by the Christian
church from the earliest days of its history
down to the present. The early Christians
differed in regard to the time of celebrating
Easter. The dispute on this point became
serious and 1t was not until the year 1876,
when Constantine had the subject brought
before the council of Nice, that 1t was finally
settled for the whole church, adopting the rule
which makes Easter day to be always the first
Sunday after the full moon, which happens
upon or next after March 81; and IL the full
moon happens on a Sunday, Easter day Is
the Sunday after. According to ADELUSG the
English word Easter and the German word
word oster. which signifies rising. The word
and the festival have a double Specification
one relating to the renewed life which comes
to nature in the spring, and the other to the
resurrection of CHRIST.
In nearly all Christian countries the re-
currence Of Easter has been celebrated
with various ceremonies and popular
sports Among the best known to
us Is the custom that came over
from England of making presents of colored
eggs. This is a very old custom, for as far
back as the time Of EDWARD THE FIRST is found
an entry in the royal roll for IS pence for 400
eggs to be used for this purpose. The game
of ball was another favorite Easter sport in
England, in which municipal corporations
formerly engaged with due parade and
dignity. We are also told that in the north
ern csunties of England on Easter Sunday
the men paraded the streets and claimed the
privilege of lifting every woman three times
from the ground, receiving in payment
kiss or a silver sixpence. The most precious
thought to the Christian mind connected
with TO days festival is that it commentaries
the fulillmcnt of divine plan for human
redemption. As at this season flowers spring
up to robe the earth in new beauty, so the
Son of Man arose that men might arise
as esrth's noblest flowers to bloom in the
field of heaven.
He rose
And with Him Hope arose, and Love and Light:
Men said twas Death, not CHRIST, died yester
night
And Truth. and Trust. and all things virtrors
Rose when He rose

REDUCTION IN WAGES,

y A recent number of Bradstreet's con-
tains the result of an elaborate inquiry I'm
dertaken to determine the extent to which
industrial workers. wages have been reduced
during the two and half years last past.
In metal products the average reduction has
been rather large; in blast furnaces from IL
to 20 per cent. in iron mills from 10 to 23
per cent; in steel rail mills from 20 to 30
per cent; in foundries and machine shops
from 10 to Is per cent. In textile products
the reduction Of wages has been even greater
ranging from 10 to Is on one class of goods,
and from 25 to 30 on others, the reduction
being heaviest in cotton and wooden goods.
In the manufacture of tobacco, furniture,
harness and boots and shoes, the average
reduction was about 10 per cent Coal
miners have suffered most severely, having
their wages cut down from 90 to 40 per cent.
In the trades that are not specially affected
by the tariff there has been little or no reduc-
ton of wages. Millers, bakers and butch
ers get the same wages now as two years and
a half ago, while makers of agricultural
implements, carp enters, brick m akers,
stone and marble cutters, tanners,
paper-makers and compositors have ex-
perienced little reduction of their income.
The indigenous and, 80 to speak, tho nat
ural occupations, to which the people betake
themselves without the Elusive inducements
offered by tariff laws, supply, therefore, to
the workingmen the most constant employ
ment, and in the long run the best wages.
Bra0Strnpt oft RI w
it terms: "More striking than any late de-
velopment regarding our manufacturing in
dustries," which is that the s'six highly
protected industries, iron, steel, cloth
ing, cotton, wollen, tobacco and
glass manufactures, which en-
ployed 81 per cent. of all industrial workers,
(as reported in 1SSO,) have thrown out of
employment more than half the mum Der dis
charged in all industries in the United States
during the past two and half years." These
Industries have, moreover, "run nearly ii not
quite as much Oh short time as any Others"
and with other textile establishments have
suffered on the average greater reduction
in rates of wages paid" They have ''prac-
tically had monopoly of the larger strikes
of the past year or two with the exceptions of
those in the coal regions. Iron aud steel
workers and coal miners have suffered by far
the greatest reduction in wages from all
causes, and are followed by operatives in all
textiles. Glassmakers thus far have suffered
less proportions tely than the above, and then
only in certain departments of labor. Ex-
cepting tobacco and cigars from food pro-
ducts, the latter have suffered least of all
