drawn to this conclusil = on by the following
statement of facts and recital of wrongs /

town. devoted almost exclusively to resi-

stores or any of thdlp ordinary industries
indicative Of noise and hustle. neighbor

his absence from bed Il ordinary hours, but
to equalize things and 'for the fully supply Of
nature with its Sweet restorer- -balmy sleep

retiring earlier and vi 'ho are also compelled
by the necessities Of / their vocations to rise

1t is a cross as borAq ie breeders would say

Thursday we badel farewell to August q
month which, in poia 4 of events of disastrous
Importance, has had few equals In addition
to an almost unpar4 eed financial panic,
there has been unexat fnpled stagnstion in busi-
ness, terrible dsaste1 by hurricanes cyclones,
fire end water But let us hope tiat with
the opening of the aud ,rumn season we have
? babe adieu to all sud bh dreadful calamties,
As far as the clement is are concerned nature
will have her own wtfly Her movements are
altogether beyond hui man control, buJin mat
tiers of finance and tr ,de man is the control
} ing agent, and it is vi ith pleasure we are able
} to point to brighteui1ig skies Business is re-
viving. confidence th1 flt was so fearfully shat
J tered is being restord d, suspended banks are
resumiug more rapidlgy than they suspended,
currency is becomi1-g nomiually plentiful,
and the banked-up fI res of factories and fur
naces are being uncoV 1vered, and the wheels

e schuylkill Traction Company, noted in the
& HERALD yesterday, has caused a number OF
d persons to express thf sir views upon the action
of the retiring official is. Last evening heard
e a prominent gentleI imam say that it was q
S scheme on the part hOf the company to avoid
" the responsibility oflt the riot and the conse-
e quent damages. Tlihis, / think, is an unjust
is accusation against til e company, and any one
1t at all versed in its a fairs know very well that
1. the change in man@ cement has been under
e contemplation for SO kmetime. Furthermore,
II it is a disputed queI stion whether the recent
b. change in managenl lent would relieve the

augunted, and bui siness being dull EN-
ployers as a rule didf not object to putting up
o. the shutters and joA ming in the observance OF
the day. ODE.
