ton and any human power of repro.
duction. The beautiful sight was
caused by the sun shining upon huge
iceberg about o'clock ON the morning
of August ,, and continued for fully
fifteen minutes. The iceberg was 270
feet high and $50 feet long, and was
on the edge of dense fog. 1t was
shaped exactly like q church, having at
one end towering spire that was
pierced near the top of the spire in i'm
maculate white.
About fifty feet from the top the
suns rays blended into soft pink that
was most beautiful to behold. Back
of the spire was slanting roof that
the action of the fog and sun caused to
appear in deep blue. Near the spire
was perfectly shaped Gothic arch, in
which had been melted fissure 80 like

The sun shone through this in all its
brilliancy and dazzled the eyes of those
aboard ship. The fog formed a deep
background near the water and made q
marine picture that could never be
painted. Besides all this, the sun,
shining on the many small projections
of the berg, made the whole look as
though millions of sparkling diamonds
had been piled together. The officers
say that many statues and fantastic
figures were dscernible about the
mountains of ice. The scamcn and
officers were awed by the beauty and
grandeur of the Baltimore

SUCCESS OF THE LOAN.
Many Hope II Is the Beginning ofa Real
Recovery.

Il @. Dun h Co. say:
The surprising success Of the new loan. and
the great confidence 1t has given to the in
vestors on both sides OF tho water and to
business men here, encourage many to hope
that IL may be the beginning OF real re-
covery. Within 22 minutes subscriptions are
supposed TO have been at least ilve times the
amount of bonds offered, and in two hours at
London they were 20 times the amount there
offered. Considering the power which con-
troll Of these bonds gives to regulate foreign
exchanges aud to prevent exports Of gold,
the transaction has indeed greatly changed
the financial situation In spite OF the fact
that government revenues are still deficient,
and that domestic trade shows scarcely any
gain as yet.
The lndustrals are not enlarging pro-
duction, nor have prices of farm products i'm
proved. Wheat fell TO 56cents Saturday last,
and has recovered to SIC, only n quarter be-
low the price u week ago, while corn, cotton
and pork are unchanged, and hogs and lard
are u shade lower. Western rcceiptso OF wheat
are nearly as large rs last year, though for
three weeks about 40 per cent smaller, owing
10 the storms. Cotton has refused to advance,
though there has been much talk about cur
taiment Of acreage this year, aud receipts
have sharply decreased.
Dealings In iron and It's products are
moderate In volume, with some discour-
uRenent III hOst ptuucncs, thouSh sttuc-
tural works at Pittsburg are very busy,
and the demand for wire nails and barbed
wire has never been surpassed. Bu
nothing Is doing In rails; plates are quiet and
bar Is as low as ever. though In rather better
demand for car works. Sales OF pig have
been moderately large, with one transaction
ut piusburg of 10000 tons Bessemer ut sl0
but prices do not improve.
Textile products show few changes but
