TIE DANGER is IMMEDIATE.

Alarm has been cheapened. Every
man in these times of adversely has be-
come doleful prophet. The business
stagnation which we have passedthrough
and which we are now in the midst OF,
will continue. That is fact that ell
men know and from which they evolve
their predictions. And with congress
still diliydallying, and wavering, and
tinkering, the set and disastrous condl-
tions render the prediction which is
dire, certainty.
This country is suffering from business
paralysis. The spring trade has run the
gauntlet and the weaker concerns have
gone down. 1t was all but annihiiated
by the jockeying statesmen down In
Washington.
Another season. the fall trade, will
soon be here. Business men say that
nothing can be done until something Is
done in Washington. The country must
have something certain. fixed and sub
stantial, to figure on before there can be
any vigor in business life.
There has been nothing but woe since
the Democratic administration came In,
and there Is nothing but woe before US
unless congress shall awake from its
criminal lethargy and cease its policy OF
destructive inaction.
Manufacturers are idle, stocks are de-
pleted, consumption decreased, invest
ment torpid and a panic may be nearer
than any man supposes. But congress,
wrapped in the solitude Of its own
colossal stupidity and selfishness, goes
right along doing an infinite deal of
nothing and giving the starving business
interest of this country stones when it
asks for bread.

TIE GERMANS AT HOME,
From the Boston Transcript


Housekeeping, taking 1t all In all, is
easier in Germany than in America,
and in many ways we Americans have
much to learn here. 1t is cheaper, not
because food costs much less, for, COM
pairing market prices, we see that meat
is about the same in both countries,
and some staple articles, sugar, -four
and lard, much cheaper in America.
Rents aud wages are of course much
lower in Germany, but it is cheaper
principally because everything is used
and nothing wasted.
A family here will buy pieces of meat
that in America we should think too
poor and cheap to use, but they under
stand cooking them better than we do,
and make them very appetizing, and
we learn to live more simply and alto
gether on a smaller scale. Everything
Is bought in small quantities; for one
reason, there are no store closets and
poor cellar accommodations in these
houses, and it Is largely the custom to
pay every day for what is brought into
the house The cook receives every
day money to pay for the milk and
bread, and meat and vegetables are
paid for when ordered. Germans are a
people of small incomes, and to pay for
each days needs simplihes arranging
for other expenses. which must per-
force run longer. Servants have quito
different bin of fare from their en-
ployers, which Is as il should be, and
they are perfectly satisfied with it
They do not expect to eat meat every
day, and are not accustomed TO it in
their own homes but they get strong.

NATURAL SCENERY.

E. s. Nadal. in Century.
Having lately visited England after
q long absence, my mind, both there
and since my return, has been busy
with the subject of the relations be-
tween our scenery and that of the Old
World, writes Mr.. Nadal visited q
dull part of Hampshire; on leaving the
house where l was staying, it was
necessary to get up to an early break
fast TO catch a train. Two young SOL
diers, very pleasant and friendly fell
lows, who went away at the same
time, were in the cab with me. Refer
ence was made to the scenery, and one
Of them, who had been in America,
said: "Yeu Americans may not al
ways say you admire England, but in
your hearts you know there is nothing
like it" l looked out of the cab win
dow at the fat and very rolled-out
landscape, cut up into squares and
plots by iron fences, which, however,
with its sparse oaks standing here and
there, was not without a classic grace,
and thought of the fresh and magic
outlines Of the Virginian mountains
But the hour was much too early and

It is true that our scenery i not very

not well to consider that history? Is

the study of those sublime changes
which have prepared the world which

are capable of comprehending them.
be brought to the service of the sense
of natural beauty.
Another contrast there may be IN the
scenery OF the two lands There is
this to be said of English scenery; i. is
suita BILE to the luxury and comfort of
English country life. It is appropriate
to the English f1esh-pots There are
plenty of country-houses throughout
England in which material comforts
are of the best, and which at certain
seasons contain much agreeable conn

fence of such a house in Surrey. The
library was excellent; for a wonder
the weather was good. the ephemeral
British sunshine remaining all day on
the southern walls, and really lavish

Easily detained by such an ex-
istence, you are not inclined to
anything more active than some kind

lose your place at that, while your gaze
rests upon the hills to the west To

Essences they seemed, rather than SUBJ

their gentle, emerald. coloring; and
they were always there, quivering as
in a dream-a mirage which did not go
away.
If there is an agreement between
luxury and English scenery, my senti.
ment is that, on the contrary, luxury
does not suit our scenery. An iron
