NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 1,-The city coun-
ell having decided by large majority not
to give any money TO help along the Expo
sition, the management have decided to
keep open. From the eheavymarked improve
ment in attendance during the past week,
there is every reason to believe they have
done wisely, and that by strict business
principles and rigid economy they will
make n success from what appeared a few
weeks back to he stupcndous failure.
Not only Is the improvement in at
tendance very marked, but ] notice that
exhibits which have hitherto been un-
opened are now being put in place, show
ing that the exhibitors themselves are
more hopeful and determined to do all they
can to carry on the enterprise to a success.

on the streets. With fine weather there Is
also an improvement In the way people talk
about the matters notice when it is rainy
and gloomy one can never obtain healthy

everything is rose colored when the sun
shines. We certainly have been blessed
with delightful weather during the past
week, and where can you find more delight

by the extreme difference between good and
bad weather, for when IL rains It Is gloomy,
miserable, and sickening.
Our business during the past month has
been unusually depressed on every side. /
hear that II has been the worst month In
years. Taking my own experience find It
has been the dullest January since 1881;
however as business of all kinds opens up

all look forward to better times during the
next three months.
