None Of the physicians who hsve at
tended Mira. Harrison Will venture pub
lie prediction that she will certainly re-
cover. Drs. Gardner and Doughty, how
ever, say that there is no danger Of inn
mediate dissolution, except In the event
OF unlocked for complication.
The President was SO much encouraged

BOSTON, Sept. 17.-The wetherby from
Hamburg, which has been in quarantine
the entire week, will probably remain
there until tho winter months at least.
There is no sickness among the crew and
shs carries no passengers, but the health
authorities have decided that at is bet

ter OF prevention will detain this vessel
until they arc assured that she has no

Tho Wetherby left Hamburg, where
the greater portion OF her cargo was
taken aboard, on the same date as the
cholera infected steamer Rugia, now at
the New YORK quarantine. 1t is thought
that some of the cargo was contaminated,
especially the sugar, and as this latter is
very damp It has kept the germs fresh
and full of vitality.
Other than the Westerly, there are the
Prussian, Do Ruyter and Francisco, all
freight steamers, free from sickness and

PAINTS, OILS. DRUGS AND CHEMICALS.

Representatives OF these firms said that
the articles which enter most largely into
domestic manufactures are comparatively
cheaper now than they ever were, aud tho
majority OF them are being man nufac-
tured or raised in this country, and are
supplanting their foreign competitors.
Especially is THE true OF sal SODA soda
ash and caustic soda, which are cheaper
and better than the foreign article.
White lead was formerly imported in
immense quantities. Now one hardly
thinks of using foreign lead because bet
ter lead Is produced IN this country. The
same is true Of tue linseed oil ami Cal
cutta seed, largely used here in 1856.
Coop dye wood extracts are fast dsplac-
ing dye woods ana we are producing aud
exporting superior grade. The tabu-
lated price OF chloride OF lime is correct.
the recent rise in the price OF this neces-
sary chemical being due to the cholera

was imposed upon alcohol aud this ac-
counts readily lor the disproportion.

These interviews and tables of prices
are authentic. The interviews are with
pioneer business men whose hair has been
silvered by the frosts of time, ana whose
individualities are interlinked with every
page of the history Of this progressive
city.
In many cases the records have been
available, and the selling prices of goods
here set down have been faithfully copied
by NEWS representative at the dictation
of the informant. No alterations have
been made in the statistics received. and
all are included in the appended tables.
Those articles that enter into dome st ic

ed within ''The necessaries Of life" have
been chosen for purposes of comparison

of the firm whose father was in the gro
Gerry trade in 1881 and whose personal in
terest began in 1857, said THE people
have grown more particular and want
better class Of goods than was sold in
1857. As consequences the goods OF
to-day are of much better quality
than they were ever BEFORE. aad
are correspondingly cheaper. There
are more varieties, too, and the
day laborer is able TO buy for his family
delicacies which the richest man could
not purchase thirty-six years ago.
Butter and cheese are not visibly
cheaper to the pocket, but the taste re-
cognizss superior quality. Such butter
as was used in 1856 has been sold for
years. Beans are cheaper and better and
l have never known tea TO be 30 cheap.
The kind of tea that was retaied at 80
cents a pound at that time would not be
bought by the epicuIean housewives Of
to-day at any price.
Coffee is relatively higher because of
repeated failures of the South American
crops; mackerel and cod because of the
apparent partial extinction of these pis-
catorial favorites. The American hen is
autocratic and with the American people
scrambling for eggs, the supply being
unequal TO the demand, up goes tue price.
