LEGISLATIVE MATTERS.
The Congress Congratulated Upon "the

The Congress Congratulated Upon the
Large Number of Good Laws Passed.
! congratulate the congress and the
country upon the passage at the first
session Of the Fifty-srst congress Of an
unusual number Of laws Of very high
Importance That the results Of this
legislation will be the quickening and
enlargement Of our manufacturing il
dustrieS, larger and better markets for
our brealstnffs AMI provisions both 1T
home and abroad, more constant EN-
ployment and better wages for our
working people, and an increased supply
Of safe currency for the transaction of
business, | do not doubt.
General Trade anl Industrial Conditions
throughout tho country during the year
have shown marked Improvement For
many Years prior to lsSs the merchan
disc balances of foreign trade have been
largely a our favor. but during that
year and tile year following they turned
against Us. 1t is very gratifying to know
that the last fiscal year again shows a
balance in our favor Of over Sos 100000.
The value Of our exports Of domestic
merchandise during the last year was over
Sl1o, 600 greater than the preceding
Year. and was only exceeded once III ouI
history. About 500. 900, 600 Of this ex-
cess was IN agricultural pursuits. The
production Of pig iron-always good
guase Of general proaperity--ls shown
by recent census bulletin to be 1888
per cent greater than III 1850, and the
production Of steel 29c per cent greater.
The general testimony is that labor is
everywhere fully employed and the re-
ports for the last year show a smaller
number of employees affected by strikes
and lockouts than in any year since 1871.
These promising influences have heen
in some degree checked by the snrpris-
ing and very unfavorable monetary
events which have recently taken place
in England 1t is gratifying to know
that these did not grow in degree out Of
the financial relations of London with
our people or out of any discredit at
tached to our securities held in that
market. The return Of our bonds and
stocks was caused by money stringency
in England not by any loss of value or
credit in the securities themselves.
