II YOU travel DER desert and mountain.
Far into the country of sorrow.
To-day, and to night, and to morrow,
And may be for months and for years,
You shall come, with a heart that is burst

For trouble. and toling, and thirstiug,
You shall certainly come TO the fountain,
At length-to the Fountain Of Tears
Very peaceful the place is, and solely
For piteous lamenting and signing
And those who come, living or dying
Alike from their hopes AMI their fears:
Full 81 cyprSs-like shadows the place is,
And statues that cover their faces;
But out Of the gloom springs the holy
And beautiful Fountain Of Tears.
And il flows. and II flows with motion
so gently. AMI lovely. aud l,tleSs.
And murmurs n tune So resistlesS,
To Him who hath suffered and hears.
You shall surely. without a word spoken,

And Weld tn the long. curbed emotion.

FROM THE TRADE CENTEIsS,
Decrease in Idle Funds-Actiyity in
Some Lines.

DcCfcaSc III luie funuS-ActlVlty IN
Some Lines.
The enormous volume of idle funds in the
banks of New York continues to show an in
crease. The surplus reserves last week were
reduced more than $5,000,OOb. There was no
important increase in loans, but the deposits
diminished. This is particularly gratifying
fea ure. Men are taking their own iGle money
out of the banks. There can be no question
that they have use for it, or it would remain
there. The surplus reserves are still larger than
ordinary at this time of year, but not nearly
so large as at this time last year. In other
words confidence in business is not fnlly re-
ntored ut it is much greater than it was
ago. There is not so much money being
horded Failures in business are decreasing.
According to r. G. Dun & Co., the failures
of the week number 24 in The United States
and 81 in Canada, or a total of 24S, as against
2sG last week and 275 the previous week
According to Bradstreet's, there were POS in
the United States, against 214 last week, 27O
in the fourth week of February 1855, 237 in
1884, 800 in 1883, and 1855 in 1882. Such an
Improvement in the gen raj condition Of
trade is as gratifying as it is note ~othy.
While t ere has been considerable irregu-
| larity in the distribution of products of var
ious classes ard in different localities there
| is evidence that Oh the whole trade is grad
uJly improving, the more encouraging re-
ports come from the west, where bu ,ness Is
| becming more active on orders from the
| people residing in the interior
and is noticeable mora particularly in dry
! goods.
| Throughout the east business is greatly
retarded by labor troubles, which are in
crossing rather than diminishing.
Continue activity is reported in the iron
and steel indus ries and the settlem ant of the
coke strike has given an easier feeling as to
production and the bituminous al has been
streng hened by the advance in prices by the
pool formed by the leading lines of railroad
to the seaboarJ
| The east bound freight shipments from
Chicago show falling off compared with the
| prec ,ding week, but wheat was in more ac4
tive demand for export in the earlier part of
! the week, hut exoorters became free sci crs OF
futures in New York, leading to reaction
in pri es, which a'tion on their part may
bear the Interpretation of a desire to pur-
chase at somewhat less than the advance
which re ulted from their buying orders.
| The market is firmer and somewhat higher
than a week ago. Corn is rather lower and
the export demand is lss active, Woo,
prices are not so firm. as t; kings are light,
but prices are as yet unchanged A; stocks
ofc> mmon are very low, and the demand for
fine tleeces is fair, it is believed that manu-
! facturers will take literally in the ne n
fn'ure, thus promising g cd spring trade

ity in California. Close on til, heels of the

of the night thirty men from Wheatland,
with masks over their faces, broke into u

and the Chinese dragged out They then pro-
ceeded to a third ranch, took several more

mob severely pummeled an old Chinaman
over the head with a revolver and made q

Trains SnowbOund in England.

A severe snow storm is raging over the
greater part of England, Scotland and Wales.
High drifts of snow ara closely packet in
many of the railway cuttings and freight
and passenger traffic is impeded in many di-
rections. Many good trains have been aban
doned, the crews taking the engines and run
ming to the nearest stations for food and
shelter, after vaialy working for hours to
move the trains. In soma cases passenger
trains have been snow bound between stations
for hours, clusing great suffering among
passengers and trainmen from hunger.
There arc no signs Of abatement on the
contrary the som seems to be increasing in

WAR NOTES.
RECONSTRUCTION WANTED IN
GREECE.
The Failure of the Powers to Satisfy
Servia and Bulgaria.

The armistice between Servia AMI Bulgaria
having expired, without ratification by the
Powers of the peace protocol agreed to be-
| tween Prince Alex nder and King Milan,
the armistice is extended, pending final me-
go.iations. The radical party at Belgrade
| are actively intriguing for renewal OF the
| war. Austrian Influence Is pred ominant at
court and the rejection of the Turkish propo>
sails substituted by the Porte for the agreamear
| between Milan and Alexander, is regarded
by the m litary party as proof that war is
only delayed until operations on large
scale are practicable. No attempt has been
made to carry cut demobilization; on the
contrary, frontier posts are being constantly
strerg shened, and large bodies Of men are
still engaged on tn, new defensive works Of
Nissa and massing at various points.
The illness of Prince Bismarck has had
IN schievious influence on peace negotiations,
but 1T Berlin conf ience in the pr=servati IN
of peace is still protested. The great powers
