Condition of Trade.

No important change has occurred III
the general condition of business during
the week. and if trades in some respects
look worse, III other respects they look
better. Some failures of magnitude
have occurred, which have caused much
apprehension and unwillingness to lend
among bankers, and there have been
somewhat less favorable features in the
dry goods market, but in iron and steel
conditions are slightly and in boots and
shoes considerably more hopeful. The
labor controversies, mainly in the
clothing trade, still cause much inter
ruption of that business. Foreign trade
is little more satisfactory, exports
from New York for three weeks show
ing an increaseoEer last year of per
cent while imports have shown nearly
the same rate of decrease. and there
are not wanting signs that the domestic
markets have been somewhat over
loaded with many kinds of foreign
goods. In general, the course OF
domestic prices tends to favor the
marketing of staples abroad.

The present crisis finds the United

during this sickly season-is the neces-
sitv of guarding our health. Nothing

not one that can often be brought

is that they are not fat enough. Fatness
