Amilcare CiDrianf.

From the London Star.
The most striking figure, physically sreaking,
at the recent workingmen's congress in Paris
was that Of Amilcare Cipriani. Cipriani was
born at Rimini in 1874. Nominally. he is a
journalist. Actually. he is fighter. A social
list since he was fifteen years old, he has for
thirty years fought and suffered. Twice he
has been condemned to death, once to New
Caledonia for life-actually ten years. to twen-
ty-fve years hard labor in actually
eight Chained to a Logo. He was delivered
from this last by the persistence Of the Italian
people, who nine times elected him deputy. To
defend his people against the triple alliance of
Russia Germany, Austria on the one hand
and against Boulangism on the other, Cipriani
has started o universal federation of the
people-a movement that has already spread
widely in Italy, France, Spain and Portugal
He is giant in physique, but with a beautiful
tenderness OF manner. His eyes, hair and
beard are black, and the two last are craving
here aud there. He speaks French perfectly.
and with great energy and fire.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
aividual. Such remarkable event
is treasured in the memory and the
agency whereby the good health has
been attained is greatfully blessed.
Hence 1t is that SO much is heard in
praise of Electric Bitters. So many
feel they owe their restoration to
health, to the use Of the Great AL

The Trade Review.

New YORK, Jan: 5.-R. G. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review of trade
says: The new year opens with
no important change in business
prospects. A hopeful feeling ev-
erywhere prevails and at the same
time the nature and extent of re-
tarding influences are more clear
ly recognized.
The annual statement of fail
ures, showing that 10,679 firms
or a trifie more than one in one
hundred went into bankruptcyin
1888 is, on the whole, especially
encouraging, because the average
OF liabilities was only 81, 5o5for
the year and $10,73S for helast
quarter. This indicates that a
remarkably large proportion of
the failures reported was of con-
Germs doing asmall business. On
the other hand, the number for
the last quarter was about the
largest on record, and there are
other indications. that the exist
ing state of things operates pow
erfully to crowd out the smaller
and weaker traders. 1t may be
noticed, too, that throughout the
western and southern states,
Texas excluded, the failures were
both more numerous and larger
in aggregate of liabilities than in
the year preceding, while in the
eastern, middle and Pacific states
an important decreasein amount
OF liabilities appears and also in
Texas.
Business failures during the
last seven days number for the
United States $50. Canada %:
total 3S7, as against 800 last
week, and 279 the corresponding
week OF last year. Failures are
usually numerous at this season
of the year for a variety of rea-
sons, but 3S7 in one week is prob
ably the highest number ever re-
corded in this country in the same
period of time.
