AT mass meeting Of the people
OF Colorado an address to the people
of the United States was adopted. 1t
is a strong and urgent document.
We clip the following part of the ad-
dress, which is an
APPEAL TO THE SOUTH,
ITO the South Colorado appeals
with more soul-felt words. Two
years ago you feared, with sinking
hearts and paling lips, the enactment
of the law that threatened to deprive
you of government and to turn
your election booths over to the ten
der mercies of federal bayonets on
election day. To save you from the
Outrages of the federal foIce bill.
COlOrado's two senators-Republi-
cans-deficd the edicts of their party
caucus and defeated what was to you
the certain humiliation and the hor-
rors of subsection to the electoral
will of your former slaves. We
saved you then. You can save us
now. With us now it is of more of q
death struggle than it was then with
you. If the schemes of the gold kings
are accomplished-if the present sill
yer law shall be Internationally re-
pealed the great bulk of us will be
made paupers and our beautiful and
wonderful state will be set back in
It's march of progress more than a
quarter of a century. Colorado,
great IN its resources, proud of its
business record, filed with brave
men and resolute hearts makes this
its appeal for preservation to the
open-hearted and generous people of
the country. We are confident that
it will not be in vain. The atrocity
of making homeless through the de
struction, of the chief industries of
100000 square miles of American
territory, 500, 900 men, women and
children, with all the attendant
scourges of enforced and hopeless
idleness can meyer be the work of an
American congress with your APP
proval.
Hopeful of speedy delivery from
the crushing burdens of financial
system, begotten of the greed of
Great Britain's remorseless money
power, and of the prosperity insep-
cradle from an American system,
which includes the free coinage of
gold and silver at the American ratio
of 16 to l, we submit to the people of
the United States this statement of
our cause"
This address will find ready re-
Spouse among the patriots of the
South. No Congressman can fail to
heed it without ignoring his constit-
uents.

DUN'S REVIEW.
Some Nervousness Growing Out of
Gold Exports.
The TREASURY RS .RVES REDUCED.
Satisfactory Trade at noston, Baltimore
and ChicaRo-Trade Good at Kan

failures

New York, Jan. 2s r. @. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
There has been some increase In the
distr button OF products during the past
week and the deman for manufactured
goods is distinctly larger, so that new
business has perceptibly improved Mt
many points. Yet the outgo Of gold
expected to exceed e. O01, 900 lis week
reduces the treasury reserves, causes
increased nervousness about the future
and renders men more reluctant to en-
gage In the new undertakings. The
liquidation of some great speculation
has set free large amounts, so that
mo ev Is everywhere comparatively
easy and cheap, and nevertheless there
is more sense Of uncertainty about the
future than appeared a month ago.
In most trades at Boston business Ia
satisfactory The demand for iron and
its products is large, but prices very
low. At Baltimore rubber and naval
stores are strong, turpentine advance
ing. At Cleveland trade fair, money
easy, hut collections slow. At Cincin-
natl collections are slow. At Detroit
there Is some comp amt of collections,
and at indianapolis increased sales of
gro, cries are noted with advancing
prices.
Chicago reports satisfactory business,
though collections are delayed. Money
IL in good demand, but currency re-
turning from the country. Clearings,
stocks and real estate sales show IA de-
crease and also receipts of most of the
principal products, because of the bad
weather. though wheat receipts In
creased 100 per cent
At St Paul collections are slow, as at
Milwaukee, but at St Louis they are
fairly prompt At Kansas City trade
il good and collections also; receipts of
live stock liberal aud Of grain moderate.
At st. Joseph trade is good in all liIcs
and collections are good there and at
Omaha, where trade is excellent At
Denver both trade and collections are
very fair Southern cities generally re-
port Improvement especially Louis
will, Nashville, Knoxville and Mem
phis At Little X ,ck trade Is quiet,
but at Atlanta business increases and
collections are fair
The bust Tess failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days number 20j, ms compared
with the totals of 1872 last week. For
the corresponding week Of last year the
figures were 297.

that the frock of Indian muslin, albeit
homemade, fitted Miss Sallys figure
pcrfectly-from the azure bows on her

waist--and that the hem of its billowy
skirt showed a foot which everybody
knew was the smallest foot south Of

Partizanism Wanted.

1t is said that Mr. Harrison has deter
mined to appoint his law partner, Attor>
ney General Miller, to the seat made
vacant by the death OF Justice Larmar
Mr.. Harrison is that sort of political IA
mantle who believes that Heaven is in
league with the Republican party a.
gainst the Democracy, and that Mr..
Lalnar's death Was in that respect Provi-
Dental. His peculiar religious views
might suggest to his partisan nature
that it would be wicked not to take
advantage of even death to get another
Republican Judge on the Supreme
bench.
If Mr.. Harrison should nominate Miller
or any other Republican we hope the
Democratic Senators will prevent his
confirmation. There was never time
when partisanism was so much in de-
mand in the Democratic party. The
people have endorsed it's aims, and its
members should feel more confidence in
its tenets and stronger determination
to support them -CharIotteSUiIIe Pro
