We have from twenty-flve to thirty thousand miles of railroad in the United States, at a cost of nearly 000 ships and steamers in great snumbers upon our lakes and rivers and npon the ocean canals, warehouses, improved machinery, -all of which is so much actual capital contributed by the past to the pre-" sent, and, in considering our present availa ble means, should be added to the large ac cumulations of capital which have taken place in private hands and at our leading business centres. All these are ready for their appropriate daties, created to ourhand, and are oly awaiting until these deposits are and their untold treasures begin to flow through the channels of business, every where creating activity and arousing enter- prize, to prove how valuable is the legacy.

III. With this comparative freedom from debt, and with this larrre supply of the ma chinery of "commerce in our possession, we enter upon the new era with an accumulation of capital, also, that in any previous period of the world's history would have been regarued as fabulous. The banks of New lork city alcne now hold in specie and undrawn de posits, in round numbers, about one hundred and twenty millions of dollars. The banks of Philadelphia, Boston, New Orleans and other commercial centres are also plethoric and overflowing with money. So also in Europe, the accumulations are beyond, all nrecedent, Tbe Bank of England holds ninetv millions in bullion the Bank of France nearly as much, and other money institutions in like proportion above their or dinary averages.

Everywhere accumulation is the order of the day. These immense sums cannot niach longer be withheld lrom tne channels of business. Capital loses much of its value In the estimation of possesser when unproductive. It is only in seasons of depression and distrust, such a3 we have just passed through, that it is Euffered to lie mac tive. In a little while the gates will be rais ed, and the ier.ilizins streams will now 7 abroad.

IV. White such is the fact in regard to the accumulation of treasure, It is a no les9 eacouraa-in? truth that the old sources of supply are as prolific as ever, and that vari ous new ones have been recently discovered California still turns out as much gold an nually as she did in the earlier history of her mines. With the regularity of clock-work she sends off a treasure-ship semi-monthly, bearing from one to two millions, in dust and bars, to be added to the general stock of the world's wealth. Australia holds out equally with the California upon fifty millions of dollars annually. So too all the older, though lees considerable, gold mines of the world continue to yield their usual quota to the common stock.

Xot only so, but the last year has witnessed discove ries of other gold-bearing regions which promise to vie with Calilornia and Australia in productiveness. Twelve months hence, weekly, or at least semi-monthly, supplies of gold from Laramie, Arizona and Frazer Eiv- er will have become as common and certain as these from the olJer mining regions. Th effect of this new influx -of this increased volume of the precious metals upon the busi ness activity of the werld it is impossible to overestimate. Add to all this the vast field open for enttrprize in our country the new States and Territories to be developed the improv- ed machinery now employed in every branch of business to which machinery is applicable the application of steam to purposes of agriculturethe reign of peace throughout the world, a condition eminently favorable to de velopment and progress in ail that is enoo bling and desirable-the immigration from for eign countries which, wheu. more annually to our national wealth than the mines of California the go ahead, prac tical character of our people and he must be an incorrigible croaker, indeed who docs not see in all these fac the most convincing evidence that the increase of wealth, of solid, substantial within the next ten years, will far exceed anything which the world has ever before witnessed.

Boston Branch Houses in New York. A committee of the Boston Board of Trade has recen'ly made an Important report, setting forth the objections to the system of employing branch commi-eioQ houses in New York for the sale of goods manufactured iu New Eagland. The sys tem of branch houses was established twelve jears ago, and there are now nineteen of these houses in New York, which sell cotton goods from New Eagland to the value of twenty five millions of dollars annually. The expense of sustaining these houses is $100,000 per year, or nearly 2 per cent, of their entire sales. The report contends that these gootl-f should be sold in Boston, that the expense of maintaining double agencies is an additional biiruin upon the manufacturers, that these Boston and New York commission houses naturally become rivals ia selliug, and thus the manufacturers are placed under the extraordinary disadvantages of compeiing with themselves.

Lynch Law in Minnesota. Prom the Madison State Journal. Considerable excitement has been produced in Minnesota, by the lynching of one J. V. Khinehart, confined in the jail at Lexington, Le Saeur county, for the murder of a man named Bodell.

A mob of thirty or forty men acseni- bled about tbe jail on tbe morning of the 37th and succeeded in ttlccunit an entrance. The prisoner possessing great muscular strength tore his right hand free, though confined by a heavy iron gyve, and seizing tbe leg of a stove Kept ma assailants at bay tor a time. The latter a short consultation, tore down tbe gable end pi tne log jail ana assailed mm in the rear. lading all hope of res-stance vain, Kbinehart lost all bear and fell npon tbe Boor in a fit. Taking the senseless bodv in a sleigh, the whole proceeded out of the village a mile and a half.

and attaching a rope to his neck, threw it over a tree and hauled him up. When nearly suffocated, the fiendish mob lowered him, and allowed him to revive. Tbe moment he came to bis senses, he sprang to his feet protested that oe was innocent ot tbe crime charged anon bim. lie was then again strung np and allowed to hang until dead. A little hole was then dug in tbe earth, the dead body chucked into it, and the lynchers departed.

The St. Paul papers assert that there was do positive testimony to convict Khinehart, and much of the circumstantial evidence against bim was vague and unsatisfactory. The mob nrob. ably feared that be might be acquitted, and re- surteu tu i) timing in oruer to ensure his pun- laiiuieut. A Prediction and its Fulfillment.

Tom Dyer'a Charter of Chicago. the City of A BUI to takst tbe City Government Away from tne Majority ol voters ana Tai Vnjerii. tSpecial Correspondence of the Press and Tribune.

cpRiKGrotLB. Jan. 6, loos. The new charter of the city has turned np in the hands of the gentlemen who are here to press It upon the Legislature. The' ingenuity exercised in drafting it so as to put the affairs of the city beyond the reach of the tax-payers and to perpetuate power in the hands of the men or party tha first get possession of tbe government when it goes into operation, is admirable but the bill itself is worse than infa mous in all its parts.

It divides the city, after making additions not desired by anybody, into twenty-one wards, each one of which is to be represented in the Common Council by one Alderman. The whole twenty-one Aldermen are to be elected in March next, eleven of whom hold their offices for two years, and ten for one year. After the first election the ten and eleven Aldermen will be chosen in alternate years. That is to say the Aldermen of the 2d, 4th, 6th, 8th, 10th, 12th, 14th, 16th, 18th and 20th wards, will be elected in 1880, while no elec tions will be held until 1861, in the wards not enumerated. This is thus fixed to favor the migratory habits of voters who are not usually content with depositing one ballot at any one election.

The "b'ya" who decide our political contests will know how to distribute thexselves abont every year so that they will vote for Aldermen all the while. This is a radical and fatal objection. It opens the door, to frauds, the like of which Chicago has never seen before. And that the advantages to be gained by this unprecedented and shabby method of doing business have been closely calculated, there can be no doubt; because the appointments of all officers are in the hands of the Aldermen thus chosen. Tb.eJia.yor is robbed of all power.

He ceases to preside over the deliberations of the Council is shorn of his patronage, his control over the police, and of his salary but retains the ve.o power. In his place are three Police Coaimis- aionera, chosen the Council, who have entire and exclusive control of police affairs, the appointment of an army of captains, sergeants and patrolmen. The Board of Sewerage Commissioners is abolished, the Water Commissioners are super seded, and the Street Commissioners ttrrajtd ont by a Board of Fublie Works, also appointed by th Common Council, and clothed with extraordinary powers. Now, see how the thing will work; and what chance nnder such a system, tax-payers will have to ensure the government that they need. Elections held in half the wards each year, at which all the floating and pnrchasaable rabble from all the other wards will vote.

The votes thus cast elect a Board of Aldermen, who, no matter how chosen, nominate the officers that the people now elect, and who, when elected in the manner which this bill provides, will be responsible to nobody but a Committee of the Council I This is downright robbery of the rights that the citizens of Chicago believe them selves competent to exercise. It is a comment npon the much vaunted principle of popular sovereignty, which this Legislature, strongly partisan as it is, will not make. But lest cal feeling should prevail over the right, let the tax-pavers of Chicago bestir themselves to re sist this iniquitous proceeding. I sand you the boundaries of the Wards pro posed to be created, which I take from a map which accompanies the charter amendment. BOUSOABISS THS WARDS.

KETTJHN OF THE FILLIB03TEB8. From the New Orleans Delta, 4th 1 The voyage of the Susan, after leaving Mobile Bay, was pleasant enough, barring the disagree able etldcta ot tne crowning ot so many men on small vessel, the weather was. lor tbe most part, clear and pleasant though just after leav ing mobile i'omt a strong nortner came up, which enabled tbe Susan at once to clear the coast, and carried her on towards her -destina tion in fine style. On the morning of December 19, about three o'clock, Capt Maury eame on deck, and immediately perceived breakers ahead, which fact he notified to tho-officers et the deck, who, however, thought thav could not be tbe case. But in few moments Capt.

Maury's surmise was proved to be correct, and it was found that toe vessel was running airecuy on an immense reef. Capt. Maury immediately ordered the helmsman to put the helm bard np, with the view of bringing the vessel near the wind, and thus clearing the reef. The man at the wheel, it appears, was a new nana, ana mistooit tne order, or did not know how to execute it. Instead of putting the helm hard up, he put it hard down, so that in a moment all chance of clearing the reef to windward was lost.

It was yet possible, bowever, to weather it, and, thera- tore, captain Maury oraerea tne neim to De kept hard down but, unfortunately, the helms man made anotner blunder, ana immediately put it hard up, thus destroying the only chance of escape. All that could be done now was to Keep all sail Bet, and hold the vessel on her course, so that she might run aa far up on the reef as possible. In a few seconds she strack, with so much force as to cause the impression that she was going to pieces immediately. In this awful moment there was no sign ot trepidation among the gallant company on board that little vessel. livery man maintained his composure, and eve- order given was executed witn alacrity.

When daviight appeared the situation of the vessel was It was found that, although hard and fast on the reef, there was no immediate danger; the weather being settled and tae sea calm bevond tne breakers. i he busan had struck on a coral reef, about sixty miles lrom iialue and sixteen miles from a group of little islands, the largest of which, called Middle Key. is inhabited by a negro fam ily named Miller. Colonel Frank Anderson and a party ot men went in a email boat to.tbis ivey, for the purpose of obtaining assistance, and in the meantime a large rait, capable of floating the whole party to shore, was constructed nn der the supervision ot Capt. Alaury.

At the end of twenty-fonr bonrs a schooner was seen approaching, which proved to be one of the three belonmncr to the Miller family, and to con tain Colonel Anderson and his compsaiona. She took about forty men from the wreck. Ua toe third morning sbe took anotner party. end on the fifth morning following the disaster. ail the rest Capt.

Maury being tne last man to leave the vessel were safely landed on Middle Key. Capt. Maury had, in the meantime, gone down to the Belize, witb the intention ot pro curing a vessel, it possible, to take the party to their destination, lie found a suitable vessel. (one which trades to this port,) and had arranged tor her, with the owners, agreeing to pay a thousand dollars. The negotiation, however, was abruptly ter minated bv the subsequent refusal of the own ers to stick to the bargain in consequence of representations made by tbe commander ot tbe vessel.

Capt. Goodspeed, who declared that he would not go on tne voyage that the men were a party of pirates they had run off from Mobile witb an United States Revenue officer; and they would steal the vessel as soon as they got to sea. The consequence of all this was that the emigrants were deprived of any means of reaching their contemplated destination. In the meantime the Britisn uovernor, Mr. Seymour, sent for Capt.

Maury, who, when he entered the Governor'e room, found that gentle man buauy engaged reading the New Orleans Delta containing the details of the escaoe of tbe Susan lrom Mobile Bay. Be said, "I suppose this is Cant. sir," Uapt. Maury of the Susan" The reply being in the affirmative, tbe Governor asked what had been done with Lieut White. Being satisfied on this point, be proceeded to say 1 do not want to know anvtmng ot your business or that of your companions; I do not see the motives which brought you to this pa't ot the world with all that i have no concern only know that 1 Had you ship wrecked men, and as sncn entitled to assist ance besides which, you are citizens of a country with which my Government is desir ous ot cultivating the most Inendly relations.

He then offered to place the British steamer Basilisk at the disposal of the party to carry them to any southern port they might select, and gave Capt. Maury an hour to reflect on the proDOS'lion, and also full liberty to attempt the charter of any vessel in port, should the party preter to prosecute their voyage. In conse quence of the reasons above stated, it became necessary to accept tbe generous otter, ithin an hour af.er this decision was notified the Gov ernor, the Basilisk was on her way to Midd.e key. Gov. beymour went down to the island, and on arriving there summoned the emigrants together, and repeated to them the eff'er he had made to Captain Maury.

He told them that he should not inquire where they were going, or wbat were toe oojecis 01 tneir mission; that he had a duty to perform to which such in quiries had no relevancy and, in short, re peated, substantially, what 'e had said to Captain Maury at Be.ize, concluding by sayiujr that if they should decide to co on board toe BasilisR they would be viewed iu tne sacred liglit ot guests, lie even went so far as to tell them that if they had any arms thev wished to preserve, they could put them on the steamer aud reclaim them on arriving at Habile. All the men, except two, availed themselves ot Governor bevmours offer.

Trog as of Wealth Unrins the next Ten Years.

From the Washinstm Union, Dec 29.1 If wars or famine do not intervene, or some un foreseen dispensation of Providenoe do not pre vent, the next ten Tears will probably witness tne most rapid progress ot civilized nations in wealth and power that has ever been known. The nnwonted profusion of the precious metals. ana the prodigious development ot industrial resources that will be effected by railroads and by steam navigation, cannot tail to accomplish results during the next decade more stupendous than bave ever yet been witnessed, or are now anticipated by tne most sanguine. tne wars wnicn desolated Eu rope and taxed to the uttermost the resources of all its great powers during the sixteenth, seven teenth and eighteenth centuries, tbe progress of civilization ana tne growia 01 popular power, under tne muuence ot a metallic currency which grew more and more abundant, was tar more ra pid than it had been at any time before, since tbe fall of the Roman empire. Indeed, it was under the influence of the mighty impetus that bad thns been given to the cause of human lib erty, that tbe independence of the American colonies of Great Britain was happily achieved, and that the Kevolutton in i ranee was most unhap pily inaugurated at tne end ot tbe eighteenth century.

The disasters which grew out of this latter event to Spain lost that kingdom the control of her own American colonies, and laid the ground work of a revolution which soon severed those colonies also from the mother csuntrv. But it was not Spam alone that experienced the evil consequences ot these disturbances. The im portations ctthe precious metals from the Span- lsn colonies, wnicn 10 Isusf amounted to more than fell off during the progress of tbe long and desolating wars which preceded and attended tne hnal rupture, to some 15.0t.i0.- 000; and such was the general prostration that overtook all lodustrtul pursuits in tbe colonies tbat tney nave never since been able to recover. and the exportations of specie in amounts at all approximating the original supplies have never revived. Theconseauence was.

tbat from the neriod of tbe tatting cn ot tbtg exportation, down to there was a continual paralysis of commerce ana industry in an parts ot tne civilized world. vhicb tound no other mitigation than in tbe large issues of paper currency, which were re. sorted to chiefly in the United Slates, England, and a few countries ef Europe. Eagland em- harked most largely ia this experiment of paper mmev ana 01 suspended specie payments.

Through the more prudent use of this dangerous agency, bowever, her own commercial and industrial in terests soon revived, sustaining but few and less beavv disasters from time to time in tne quarter of a century succeeding that year. We in the United Stales also employed tbe dangerous sub stitute for a metallic currency, put much more rashly, and have suffered terribly at intervals tor our recklessness and lolly. Tbe enormous fresh supplies of the precious metals, which began in would have at once anorded relief to the commercial embarrass-meata of both countries, if it had not been for the immense indebtedness and expansion which existed at the time. As a lampli of the im mense undertakings wbtca had then been em- barked in, we do not know at what vast cost in mocev. Great Britain had undertaken the con struction of her stupendous system of railroads.

1 he system in this country has been constructed at an outlay ot a tuousand muitoos of dollars. But tbis was but a single class of credits, the immense labrie of whica had been commenced in 1549. There were numerous others of pro portionate magnitude and cost; and it has re quired all the resources of California, of Australia, and of the paper system itself, for ten years, to complete the enterprises that had been undertaken, otwitnstanaing tne magnitude of these combined resources there was a serious monetary collapse in 1657 but. it is probably better, on the whole, that that catastrophe should have occurred, and that the general sys tem of liquidation which it inaugurated should have been broogbt about, in order tbat tbe way might be made clear for the halcyon times that are now apparently to tollow. bat is now tbe condition ct anairsr 'ice great railroad systems of America and Europe wbich have been the objects of such immense ontlays of ssoney ia their construction, have at length ceased to be tbe objects ot expenditure, and become agencies of production.

The sporting gentlemen whom the Chicago Democrat had nnder review a short time since, are furnishing food for editors, far and wide.

The Philadelphia Sews, of the SI isst, has a columa article of moral reflections, commencing thus "A Cokvisvio or Gam blsks. Tbe recent gathering of porting gentlemen, at Chicago, has been the subject ot much comment by the journals of all parts of the Union, some of which treat the matter with levity, bat most of tbem exhibit a becoming horror in contemplating so tearful aa evidence of the depravity of tbe times. Very few of them discuss the sffair philosophically or with candor. Gambling has become aa institution our country, in which a large number of intelligent men bave a deep intere-t: and as in other branches of business. where men hare much at stake, those interested meet together in convention, to establish such regulations as may facilitate their operations and advance their interests.

Tbat there should be a large number of gamblers in such a country aa oars, is not strange, lor no vice is more universally popular, in an nations, in all ages, in all atages of civilization, a love of gambling has shown itself, and it ia not to be expected tbat human nature should be different in America from what it ia in other parts of the world. That a body of man, engaged in an unlawful business, should exhibit so great a contempt for law, and for correct moral sentiment, aa to assemble in thia way, ia a startling evidence of the growth of a morbid condition of society, and it is in this light that we should contemplate it. When an ulcerous boil breaks out upon the surface of the human body, the skillful physician regards it as a symptom which indicates a diseased state of the system, and he will apply remedies to purify the blood which permeates the whole body, and by this means eradicate the disease, rather than attempt to cure tbe sore by outward applications." Really, the editor of the Democrat will have to arragne aa index for his paper, letting the public know vhick of his articles are to be believed. fey The Michigan State Medical Society meets oa the 19th at Lansing.

Are they to be finally admitted into the Union Is a new removal at some future time to be made of the tribes ctvil zsd andChris- tiantz2d to make room for the Caucasian wave rolling West? Or are foreign governments to grow up in the very heart ot tbe territory ot the United states The Cherokees organized la regular govern ment as early as 1S3'J. copying tbe peculiar fea tures of the Constitution of the United States.

The forms of legislation and the arrangenent of the courts of justice so nearly resemble those of the states, that, but tor the tawny sEtns around bim, the traveller into the vtterokees territory would scarcely find any indication of having passed its boundaries. The tribe has improved in an the arts of ctvi- zatton to snch a degree that many ot its princi pal men would grace the refined sosiety of any nation, in respect tor tne law, regard lor pop ular education and public morality, and the adoption of all the elegancies and advantages ot civilization, the Cherokees have taken a position rbich torbids any forcible interference with their rights to the territory they occupy, to suit the conveniences or obviate the anomaly which the existence of their state now presents. Ibe Uboctaws formed tbeir govenment. taking the institutions of the United States for their model, in IS 3-4.

Tom Dyer's bill for taking the government of Chicago oat of tie bauds of the voters aad tax pavers, ol which the public has been favored with sundry whispers aud innuendoes, has come to the light and a broth" of a bill it is. It should be entitled An act to carry out the Great Principle which an-" 'durlies the foundation of our free institu-" lions the right of each community to re-" gulate its own affairs in its own way eo ably advocated by Stephen A. Douglas in the recent campaign." By all means, let the brat start with a right name, aud no false pretences. A synopsis of thia Blue Lodge measure will be found in another column, and we ask the careful attention of our city readers to its separate frauds on the rights of the people Additions to the Citt. These are the least offensive and unjust features of the bill.

Bridgeport and Canatport are added, on the South West, in virtue of their majority of IriA voters, and a section of territory in width, is added to the southern limits of the Corporation. If lstein is annexed on the North West, and an addition is made on the northern limits. If the residents of these towns aud precincts with to come in and share our city taxation we shall not be the Cist to grumble, but they ought not to be lugged in by the neck, against their wishes-It is for them to consider the question in their own light. 1L LNXitEASE, AND NEW SUB-S IVISION, 01? "Wards. The object sought ia the repeal of the present charter and the enactment of the Dyer contrivance, is of course to put the government of the city, In all its departments, iuto the hands of the Democratic party to trausfer the management of Chicago affairs, from Chicago to SDriusrfield to out a set c.f men in offices of trust here, whom the people could never be induced to trust to inaugurate an Irish Police to put the Dyer administration in power again, in spite of the voters and to Lecomptouize the city generally, the whole business being done at Springfield without the pretense of submitting it to the people of Chicago for ratification.

To to complish this it becomes necessary to get hold of the Common Council. Repeated trials have shown that tbe people want only tbe smallest moiety of Democracy in that body. The only resort is to obliterate the present Ward divisions and gerrymander the city eo as to insure a Democrat is majority in the Council, however largo the Republican ma jority In the aggregate. To accomplish this the city is divided into twenty-one Vard3 the boundaries of which are set forth by our Springfield correspondent. Let any citizen take a map and trace out the new subdivis ions, aad see how utterly, natural divisions are ignored and what a melange of squares, triaugles, parallelograms and polygons are here devised for the people of Chicago to vote in.

The present Xth Ward, with a total vote of 1,629 is divided into three by the Dyer bill, while the Vih, with a vote of 1,700 Is entitled to only two. Bridge port, with a vote of 250 or 300, is set up with powers in the Council equal to the IX. Ward, whiah cast 742 votes at the elec tion in November and so on. The South Division is cut in such a way that it is im possible to judge of the fairness of its ap- portioument, but it is easy to see that the purlieus of Sherman street are divided with a view of throwing the ews of that neighborhood into two Ward-i, as make-weights to elect Dem crats in both. III.

A PREMIUM ON OLOXIZATION AXD ILLEGAL vonso. It seeuia to have been appre- bended by Dyer Co. that the people might upset thuir kettle in the course of time, by outvoting t'lem in their own dens. To guard agaiust this contingency, the bill provides that the present Council shall go out of office inxtanier that one Alderman shall be chosen iu each Ward at the first election one-half of them to hold office for the term of one year, and one-half for two years. At each succeeding election, Aldermen shall be chosen ia only one-liulfof the Wards.

No reason cau be assigned for this unusual method of tilling the Council, but the premium offered for colouiziug voters. The mass of the De mocracy being Irish, having no fixed abodes, aad bciug usually beside themselves on elec tion day, the greatest care requires to be taken to prevent their voting in two or more Wards under our present system. The illegal voting under which we have suffered hereto fore, ia proposed to be doubled by the Dyer system. IV. Tub powers and duties of the Mayor.

Under the Lecompton charter, the Mayor will have less to do with city aifairs than a common policeman. The appointing power is not only taken from him, but he is de- barred from presiding over the meetings of the Council. lie becomes a figure-head, of less consequence to the municipality than the portraits of his predecessors. V. The Police and Ppblic Works.

The charter according to Dyer, establishes a Board of Police Commissioners, elected by fie Council, who Bhall have control over this brAoch of the city government. Ku- mor nas assigned these places to Tlios. Dyer, Luther Haven and n. D. Col- vin all of whom have run for office within a year and been defeated.

But this is not the worst. The present efficient and successful Boards of Water and Seweraga Commissioners, are displaced and superseded by a Board of Publ ic orks, also elected by the Council. Rumor has aseignel the Presidency of this botiy to Elitiu Granger. Without devoting more space to particulars, the whole manage ment of the city is taken out of the hands of the people, aud placed by the Legislature in t'w keeping of a dozen Democrats. We are iuformed even that it is a part of the scheme to have the Legislature elect the three Po lice Commissioners, and put them in power immediately ia advance of the decision of the people.

This is to enable Dyer 3. to carry the city, beyond a peradventure, in March. The citizens of Chicago expect their Reprcsenta'ives to do their whole duty in the premises. They also wish to remind the Legislature that evry man in that body was elected on the issue of forcing an abominable Constiiution on an unwilling people. We insist, if they are determined to enact this law at the suggestion of Dyer and the balance who hope to hold office nndar it, that it shall submitted to the people of Chicago for their ratification or rejection.

Let us have no Lecompton Convention in Illinois till John Calhoun returns to preside over it. Recovery from the Re valsion Unparalleled Activity and development Ahead. In another column we give an interesting article from the Washington Union upon the growth of wealth within the next ten years Of the general correctness of the conclusions arrived at by tbe writer, we do not entertain a doubt. All the signs in the financial world are indicative of the beginning of an era of development and progress of which the past furnishes no parallel. The depression from which the country is but just recovering is in some degree prophetic of what is to come.

Without any marked immediate cause, reaction would be inevitable from the very nature of things. But with the. existence of abuudant causes to stimulate reaction, the effect must bo correspondingly greater. What then are the conditions under which we are entering upon the era of reaction, and to what extent are they calculated to affect the result I. The country indeed we may say the whole world has been for the last eighteen mouths engaged in the liquidation of its Indebtedness.

Millions of dollars of private debts have been paid, while corporate and State indebtednesi Iim been materially reduced. Terhaps to a greater extent than at any time within the last ten years, the world-is free from old business scores, and large masses of its population art prepared to start off upon a new race of enterprise and activity entirely out of debt.
