One or the wonders OF the South Is the
rcyivalist and temperance lecturer Sam
Jones. He is already attracting the at
tention of the whole country. He is very
eccentric. He creates sensation every
where, but there seems to be very much
to the man. His terse way of putting
things, his humor and great earnestness
seem the secret of his power. He will
no doubt have many imitators, but no
man is likely to succeed at it. One
might as well attempt to compete with
Solomon in making proverbs. A young
man who had great admiration for the
eloquence of Peter Cartright proposed to
copy his style, but, said the eccentric
Cartright, 'syou will go to the devil II

Several medical writers have lately
called attention to the fact thot although
there is a marked diminution Of drunk
enness in England, the use of powerful
narcotic and stimulating drugs has large
ly increased. Even tro-glycerine, a
comparatively new medicine, has found
its devotees. The Lancet says: "Since
the introduction of nitro-glycerine tab
lets into the British pharmacopnia the
use of the drug has increased to an enor-
nous extent, and it is to be feared that
its manufacture is carried on surrepti-
tiOusly"

A New York clergyman said the four
great difficulties which confront clergy
men in large city are the Capitalization
of churches; the rush of business and
pleasure, and often silly and childish
pleasures; the crowded and shifting pop
ulation: and the tendency to sensational
ism. This, observes an exchange, is like
the thirty-eight reasons which a mayor
gave for not firing cannon when the
king entered the city. "The first is,
your majesty, we hadn't any powder;
the second, we hadn't any cannon; the
third'-but here the king shut him up.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.
Failures During the Past Year-The
Prospects for 1885.

Failures During the Past Year-The
Prospects for 1886.
The New York mercantile agency of R. G.
Dun & Co. report that the total number OF
business failures in the United States in 1885
was 10,6S7, with liabilities of little more
than sr24,OOO,O 900, as compared with 10,96S
failures in 1884 with liabilities Of 1925, ,000,-
600. While the failures for 1885 are only three
per cent less in number than in 1884, the liza
bilities have decreased nearly fifty pei
cent. The number of traders reported in
business in 1885 was 919, 800. Of these one in
every 81 failed In 1878, with 900 traders,
one in every IA came to grief. The average
amount of liabilities of each failure in 1885
was s11 ,67S, against $40, ,632 in 1884 S22 800 in
1878. It is seen from these figures that while
business casualties have decreased but slightly
in number, they are far less significant in
amount and Importance.
The Iron Trade Reuie,o publishes many
letters from manufacturers concerning trade
in 1885 and the outlook for the coming year.
All branches of the iron and machinery trade
note decided increase in both orders and in

prediction is made, without exception, that
lsS6 will be year of widespread prosperity.

The winter. days are now at hand
When silently throughout the land
The snow doth fall;
Its dazzling whiteness all around
Doth drift above the frozen ground,
Deep over all.
Now the young lover haste doth make
And in narrow cutter take
His girl to ride;
And she doth laugh, blithe and jocose
Beneath the buffalo smuggled close
Up to his side.
Meanwhile at home his aged faith
Err doth, to shovel out a path,
The drifts attack;
And while love holds the youth in thrall
The pcor old man at home doth al
Most break his back.
