THE FINANCIAL STRfNGENCY


A careful reading of the New Tork
dispatches leads to the conclusion that
the financial stringency Of 1890 is over.
The report of the New York banks, pup-
lished upon last Saturday morning shows
very large gains in the bank reserve of
that city, and these reserves now exceed
% per cent. The low rate tina, pre-
vailed in New York for foreign exchange
upon Thursday, Friday and Saturday Of
last week, caused at least $40, 900 900 In
gold to be placed upon Atlantic steamers
for transfer to New York. The first
shipment was made upon Thursday by
the steamer Lena from Southampton,
She has in her cargo two and a half
millions in gold. For months past it has
not been possible to negotiate
commercial paper in the open market
of Wall street, but upon Saturday
commercial note brokers announced that
they were prepared to negotiate all the
high credit paper that might be put in
their hands. Eastern banks never buy
commercial paper upon the open market
until they are prepared to answer ali
calls from patrons. 1t may be some

TIE treatment that the Hebrew sub.

THE treatment that the Hebrew sub
jects OF the Car have received has
aroused indignation in Christian LANDS.
But the letters written By the United
States minister, Charles Emory Smith,
to the Philadelphia Press have called out
unique expression of this feeling. alr.
Tulzberger, of Philadelphia, promi-
nent Hebrew, made bitter attack upon
more. 1.-THE mouthpiece of the lying
bullets of tyrant GAR can hardly be
considered complimentary language, and
there is So much feeling that it is said a
movement is on foot to secars the recall
OF the minister.

The bound volume of the Century
received aud is one OF more than passing
interest. There are single articles or
series of papers contained IN this volume
worth many times the price. These have
become accessible to the public by the
enterprise of the Century company, and
are of such Importance that no library of
any pretensious can afford to be without
them. Among these may be mentioned
the memoranda on the lifs OF Lincoln, a
continuation of the war papers, both
genuine historical acquisitions, and the
charming autobiography OF Joe Jeffer-
son. These are ouly casual mentions of
the value of the volume. The collection
of poetry contains list of such names as
Richard Henry Stoddard, Thomas Baily
Aldrich, Walt Whitman and host of
others well known to the muses.. The
volumr is welcome acquisition.
The Century company are also respon-
sible for another pleasure-the reception
of the year of St. Nicholas bound In two
parts, November, 1889, to October, 1890.
inclusive. The public is well aware of
the worth of this publication and it does
not, like many magazines, lose its value
in the binding. The volumes are COM
pact and neat, and one could give no
more pleasing present to a little friend
than the past year OF st. Nicholas in it's
unique binding, unless it be the year of
St. Nicholas that Is coming.

plains IN a short preface how he ar
ranged to have all the annoyance Of pro-
viding for journey shifted from his
shoulders to those of others and with a
party set out for a trip through Mexico,
land that yields the traveller an UNI
bounded supply of novel enjoyment. -
The first two chapters are devoted TO
the history Of early Mexico as far as
known, its earlier and later civilization,
its soil, climate and products, giving
such Information as is requisite to an IN
telligent understanding and apr ecia-
ton of much that follows. Mr.. BalIon
has been an extensive traveller in
Eastern and Europ can lands, is familiar
with Spanish and Moorish customs and
is thereby we'll prepared to speak
sdvisedly and to judge correctly of the
conditions of Mexican life. Entering
the republic at P.edras Negras and
traversing the entire length OF the
state to Vera Cruz, missing no historic
ground, he gives in most readable form
an admirable description of the many
points of interest. So accurate is he
that this work will prove to any one
visiting the Aztec land q most reliabls
and serviceable guide. The book is
