a sou vHKBitrvL view,
Mr. Henry Clews, of New York,
bas^teen repbrtodas'asyftg: “We
■bill soon enter upoiftfie new'vear
•r 188ft, and * tinder quite firorablo
auspice*, produced by cheap food,
cheap clothing, cheap money, cheap
•tooka, cheap paaaenger fareB, cheap
freigbta, cheaper coal .cheaper labor,
and with the prospects of cheaper
rente and cheaper real eetate, all of
which united constitute a legitimate
and genuine baeie for real prosper!
ty In a country abounding In Inez,
baustiblo natural resources as decs
America. Hence hope should now
begin to toko the place of the here
tofore existing doubt, and by a
united effort on tiro part of the
worldwide recognized enterprise
of the people o! this country, we
will soon get out of, the present
gloomy rut, and prosperity will
again reign Atom one end of the na-
tion to the other and be enduring
In 1U character."
The ooubtry will heartily echo
and rS-eehothe hope that Mr. Clews
pray be right in his obeerful predic
tion* and anticipations. And there
seems no good reason to doubt
.£hcjr fulfillment. Already the sighs
point to a revival of business on a
solid ahd substantial,basis. The
Wires do not brlog ns the news, so
constantly as they did a short time
since, of shuttings down of manu
factories ahd the'eonsequent throw,
ing out of thousands oi men Horn
employment. To the contrary, the
reports are that manufacturing and
general trade are showing decided
signs of Hie, and that ere long we
may reasonably hope for a genuine
revival.
When the rlwal does come its
inbstantisllty will be itsmost prom
lslog feature. The country haa
about passed through the period of
froth and artifice, which led to the
wild speculation and extravagant
living that has characterized all
kinds of bnelneee for some years
baok, and whleh finally led to the
bursting of the bobble last summer.
Since then the atmosphere haa been
greatly purified, and matters bare
already assumed a more healthy
. tone. This etatement Is corrobor.
ated by all our exchanges which
make the condition of the business
world an object of special study,
and the opinion prevails that the
bottom his been reached. Bad-
ness of alMrinds will for a time at
M bwoondnoted^ooi safer and
methocia, and this will natri-
ally produce confidence, and the
more general mvestmeht of capital.
The New Year about to te ushered
in, therefore, promises to be deold.
edly more bright and oheerful than
its predecessor, whoso days are
rapidly drawing to a close.

Although the Nation was led to
believe that ' when the State De
partment asked ior I960,00# last
summer It desired to use the money
In baying the rights of certain
persons then bolding a concession
or in beginning work for the pur-
poee of preventing tho lapse of the
•bom concession, the matter was
handled in snob a way that this
explanation did not satisfy some
persons. A Washington corres
pondent now shows that their sus
picions were well founded. When
Secretary Prelinghnysen appeared
before the Houae Committee on
Appropriations last Summer he ad
mitted to members of that com
mittee that the money was to be
wMd.tt he should obtain it, In
“getting several Nicaragua officials
mAof the way." In abort, Con
gress was asked to give money to
be used na a corruption fund with
officers of the Nicaraguan Govern
ment! The Senate appears to
hate regarded corruption of the
kind proposed at n smart i stroke of
diplomacy, bat the House rightly
took another view of the proposi
tion. It is not strange that mem.
ben who have known how the de
partment intended to use thatmon.
