st.pnation at the Stock Exchange.


The want of something reliable to specu-
late in has hung pail of gloom over Wall
street Even last summer business was not
so completely and hopelessly dead there as
it now appears to be- The curbstons
brokers are all out at elbows, and those
who have offices spend most of their time
trading cigars and stories. A base ball
game or a horse race is a perfect blessing,
for it gives them an excuse to stop idling
in their prositless haunts, and go Off and en-
Joy themselves If the stagnation continues
the stock exchange will be q quiet retreat

Bullets are driving Delmonico out of bust
ness, and lager beer has completely sup
planted champagne as a beverage. The
street vendors wear a hungry look, and the
dogs and cats and birds they offer for sale
are lean and starving creatures, in keeping
with the depressed circumstances that sur
round them.
Curiously enough, at time when money
is almost as scarce as piety at a French
ball, perfect mania is raging among the
brokers to buy works of art The Morgan
and other art sales have made pictures
fashionable and shown, as well, that it is a
good deal safer to PUT money in them for
investment than in most of the stocks on

The Law Business Not Profitable.


@There arc several reasons why the law
business is not so profitable as it used to be, y
said an old attorney from an interior town
the other day. "One is that the mercantile
and collecting agencies have almost monop-
olized the collecting business, which used to
be very large factor in the lawyers re-
ceipts These claims worked in well with
his other business, and, without taking very
much of his time, made q handsome add
ton to his income during the course Of a
year But now the large reporting and
collecting agencies have their representa-
tives ali over the country, and mercantile
collections are nearly all made through
them
THE abstract offices have also taken away
q large amount Of business that used to be
done by the lawyers Some years ago the
tracing Of titles and making Of abstracts
was entirely the work of attorneys, but it
has now passed wholly out of their hands
into the hands of men who make it dis
tinct business of its own Years are spent
in abstracting all the land records and
judgment dockets Of the county and max
ing q complete abridgement of them in the
books Of the abstractor's Office, and after
that the entries are kept up from day to
day. This entails q large expenditure Of
time and labor, to begin with, but the books
of such an office in time become extremely
valuable and the business highly profita-
BILE.
"A third reason for the Decline" he con-
tinued." is that there is not as much cause
for litigation in an old as in new conn
try. Titles to property become securely
settled in tho course of time, but while the
country il new conflicting claims are often
asserted which can only be determined by
an appeal to tie courts think, too" he
added, g. there is less disposition to litigate
in old communities than in new ones =

Richness and Taste in Display-Dress Of
the Observation-Disclosures.
In America it is the effort Of merchants
to get goods Of every earthly description
under ono roof Here the shops are more
One will deal in silks and trimmings; an
other only in velvets and velveteens: an
other may show superb lines Of linen;
gloves, fans parasols and umbrellas may be
found at another: again a shop will sell
woolens exclusively; another prints and
cotoons; and rarely will you find the no.
ton store So, too, outside of the textile
fabrics these divisions in trade are rigor-
ously observed A photographer is not an
artist: bronze goods do not include pottery
the jeweler sells jewelry, not clocks and
watches; the woodenware, -ironware and
basket-ware merchants are not each all the
others; and wine merchants do not sell soap.
In all these shops there is a richness and
taste, but, not obstrujyeness, in display !;
and from one end of the city to another the
neatness brightness, ightness, and airiness
of the shop form much of Havana's attrac-
tiveness All this, too, is in despite OF an
architecture that would preclude delicate
arrangement among more stolid people.
But the Spaniard and Cuban both possess just
enough effeminacy to make a dainty nest
out of an old ruin anywhere Again the
dress of merchants, statesmen, and the most
mental keepers adds to the pleasing effect of
the shop. Nearly all are attired in linen,
pure white or in dainty stripes The white
uecktie is universal, and it is refreshing.
It is a clean thing, too. They are only pre-
tentious or slovenly who relegate it to full
dress use any where
Many statesmen are clad only in patent
leather CATERS and linen pantaloons and
shirts, but these are spotless Indeed, the
Cubans are the cleanest people regarding

Prevention of Disastrous foundations.
When the first settlers of Montreal built
their cabins at Hochelaga point the Indians
warned them that their dwellings would
some fine day be swamped by the deluge of
an ice gorge. That prediction has now
been verified, and its fulfillment is a danger
incidental to all ice-rivers flowing towards
the poles. The ice q. owe beginning to move
before that further down had time to thaw
is yearly risk, which however, can to
some degree lie obviated by mechanical
means As RUE, with rare exceptions, the
pressure of the up river foes will crush the
lower ice-iields and push them slowly along,
and experiments at Culm on the Vistula and
elsewhere have proved that the main
problem is to prevent the formation Of in
cipient barriers, or 'chokes," as our river
men call them. The remedy consists in as
certaining those nucleus points and fortify-
ing them by artificial islands, crowned by
eisbrecher ice breakers, or triangular piers,
with the apex down stream. That simple
device has prevented disastrous inundarions
and could probably be supplemented by
dynamic means-ice- torpedoes and steam
