ApOtheosis of Trade and Finance

A LII things considered the rise of trade and finance
has probably had more to do with what decline
and fall there has been in the liberal trio than any
thing else. Another influence, however, has been
at work and that IS far removed in its nature
from the other is easily possible Trade and
finance have great estimation in the world; but,
sngularly, while the practical have been coming
forward with such leaps and bounds, art itself has
taken a place. Literature has always
manded a certain respect; but the consideration in
was different from the consideration given ThaCke-
ray and MaCaulay and if IhaCkeray and MaCauay
were living now the places they occupied would be
still different. Literature may not be any greater
than it was, but 1t has to be accepted
thing more practical, and the world considers the
writer more a useful and helpful member of the
community.
And if with literature difference is to be observed
with art as art is generally understood, there is
far greater one With the change that has come
over the spirit of the world the suggestion may be
made without fear of too great bOldness that almost
new renaissance has begun. Looking at the PIC
lures and the illustrations of the middle OF the last
century the artiStCallV hopeless in the world
historv-the age of Firth and of Cruikshank-One
must see the difference. As one considers human
existence as it was pictured in the early volumes of
Punch he feels that 1t must have been prosalc,
rninspiring, pOdding painful kind OF thing. The
world must certainly have been a dull old place
then. and the change is assuredly like a new birth.
What has brought this about is not the question
here Perhaps the advance in trade and finance
that has made other changes has made this possible,
and that with time and opportunity for new inter
these have arisen. But truly the artist and the
musician and many calling having TO do with the
arts have gained new prominence. Indeed, hardly
an ocCupatOn-a handiCraft or a bralnCratt-haS
failed TO advance in emouments and hOnors.
The truth IS that reason for all of this may be
discovered in the increased strength of democracy

MANUFACTURES IN A TOWN.

You may take the dullest and most
prosaic town and erect within its Dor
ders busy, thriving manufacturing
institution, where large numbers of
workmen are employed, and new life
is at once impaired to the place. The
dull monotony of the past gives way to
the sound of the steam whistle and the
clangor of the shop.
The streets no longer look deserted
People move with an active restlessnes
In strange contrast to the times when no
! manufacturing was carried on ia their
midst. The liveliest towns that we
have in this country are those wholly
devoted to manufacturing. The drear-
lest towns, where dry-rot is visible on
every hand, are those wherein no work
shops are to be found.
Manufacturing towns are not only
more attractive, but as rule they are
more prosperous, as we'll as being far
more enterprising and affording better
social and commercial advantages. The
typical manufacturing towns are to be
found in New England in fact, the
Connecticut river may be said to be
lined with them. 1t is invigorating to
the mind, as well as to the sight, to
travel through these towns, which
justly may be termed "heehives of in
dustry." An air of enterprise and thrift
is everywhere displayed.
The proprietors of the industrial in
situations, the tradesmen, the artisans
and other citizens exhibit every out
ward indication of that contentment
and happiness which arise from pros
porous condition.
There is reason for this-a social as
well as business reason. First, the
presence of workshops and factories in
the midst of community is in itself a
source of activity. These institutions,
drawing to them daily their scores and
their hundreds of workmen, bring life
and activity, not for week or month,
but as long as they are in operation.
But in towns purely commercial, or in
lazy seaport towns, where the bulk of
the male portion of the population is at
sea, there is too perceptible lack of
life and animation. This can be better
observed than described.
But to one standing in a manufactu-
ring town at the morning hour, at noon,
or at night, when the workmen are
vending their ways to and from work
there need be little said to prove from
whence the vitality OF the town arises
