receive. Unquestonably there is n
great deal of uneaslness concerning the
future of our currency system both at
home and abroad, which this loss OF
gold stimulates. At the present time
there is more alarm than necessary in
sdme quarters, and though the dan
gers are real, they are still quite dis
tant. The very fact that they are bet
ter understood today than ever before
10 OF itself an omen of good. Foreign
era, who haye been sending back their
holdings of Americans for months past
on this account, have failed entirely in
measuring the change of sentiment
towards silver which hae taken place in
the United States. They fail to appre-
ciate that the power of the silver lobby
at Washington has received its first
tide of battle between silverites and
anti-silverites is likely to he in
favor of the latter. Unless ell
indications fail the next con-
gress will witness q more vigorous and
able campaign against existing silver
follies than has yet been seen. 1t Is
this hope that the remedy will be sp-
Piled before the crisis comes, az we'll as
confidence in our ability to carry the
burthen, that has induced American
bankers and capitalists to purchase and
hold the securities which Europe has
sold. 1t was the want of this conf
dence, as we'll as the unsatisfactory
state of trade and finance abroad,
which forced Europe to sell. The
efforts of the bears to force out stocks
,by means of false rumors about the
corn crop were not very successful.
All such rumors were silenced by the
government report for August l, which
showed the condition OF corn to he 800
per cent, against Sill per cent the pre-
vlous month. In some sections there
has been considerable damage by
drought, especially in Kansas, bnt later
reports Of subsequent rains are more
satisfactory. To most observers the
August crop report seems to have been
a disappointment; yet it should not be
overlooked that present low prices for
wheat, corn and cotton are all due to
the production of last year. A
smaller yield of these staples this year,
provided quality proves fair, Is really
the most fortunate circumstances that
could happen. There is no prospect
whatever of shortage of cotton, corn
or wheat. There will be surplus
enough of each left over to meet all
possible deficiencies Of the coming
season. Had we experienced another
year of such abundance as last year,
there is no telling at what prices the
chief farm staples would have dropped
