Il. q. DUNN's REVIEW.
The Business of the Week-ImproNement
Geleral Except in the IRON Trade

General Except i'm the IRON Trade.
NEwYoRK, March l1.-R. q. Dunn
& Co. weekly review Of trade says:
Distribution OF products Is DnQueStion-
ably improving. Transactions are, on
the whole, larger than a year ago, In
spite Of depression at the south, being
very much larger at the West. Nor is
Improvement confined to that section Tor
though general there, IL Is also felt In
eastern cities. Trade at the South,
though still much embarrassed by the
low price OF cotton, is steadily gaining.
With all the great industries. active,
with money abundant, in spite OF gold
exports and with speculation Kept In
wholesome check. the outlook would
seem TO be unusually favorable.
Iron has been the dismal feature, but
instead Of decrease the weekly output
shows a large increase, so that on March
1St it was the largest ever known. The
trouble with this Industry is that while
sharp competition between Northern
and Southern producers puts down
prices, the consumption has been
irregular; at some seasons cxtraordi'
nary, but others hesitating. Southern
companies are trying 10 consolidate.
Rails are inactive, bar IS dull and plates
weaker. In copper there Is also an
effort 10 consolidate or combine, but as
vet with uncertain results. Trade In
Tin has been small, and lead IS dull.
Though money is abundant, rates on
call have slightly advanced and the
market for commercial loans Is a little
sitter amongst Eastern cities. BuSi-
ness failures during the last seven days
number 256; last week 240; same week
last year 27J.

For the Eagle,
YE XMAS DI NER.

o We Christmas time is coming,
With its own alluring pleasure;
It makes the Oldest heart of earth
Leap TO a newer measure.
The very air seems laden
With rare delicious flavor,
While ye plump and babbling turkey
Is especially in favor.
With We man. who tho with presents
The cares of others lifts,
Hath himself outgrown the pleasure
OF receiving little gifts,
Or big ones if the bill
Must come along in January,
Love his wife-but then he wishes
That it wasn't customary.
Tho he hath outgrown the jumping jack,
Which elm around his youth,
He hath a Christmas relic lett,
IT'S Christmas tooth.
Ye luscious old plum pudding,
STEPPED with wine, and rarest sauces,
Which carries off in curling fumes
Thoughts of election losses.
And takes him back to days when ne
Was just a wee beginner,
And watched the preparations, which
Turned out Christmas dinner;
Watched the turkey stuffed with corn,
And then with raisin dressing;
The tarts, and pies. and dOughnut COWS,
And counted all thrO' blessing.
Ye man may hate the world at large,
And be really sinner,
The year around, but once year,
Right after Xmas dinner,
He will reform and love himself,
And quite forgive his brother,
And, sometimes the pie meets this remark
well, wife, this beats my mothet.'
EETH.
