“August
Flower”
There is a gentle-
Dyspepsia. man at Malden-on
the-Hudson, N. Y.,
named Captain A. G. Pareis, who
has written us a letter in which it
is evident that he has made up his
mind concerning some things, and
this is what he says:
“I have used your preparation
called August Flower in my family
for seven or eight years. It is con
stantly in my house, and we consider
it the best remedy for Indigestion,
and Constipation we
Indigestion, have ever used or
known. My wife is
troubled with Dyspepsia, and at
times suffers very’ much after eating.
The August Flower, however, re
lieves the difficulty. My wife fre
quently says to me when I am going
to town, ‘We are out
Constipation of August Flower,
and I think you had
better get another bottle. ’ lam also
troubled with Indigestion, and when
ever I am, I take one or two tea
spoonfuls before eating, for a day or
two, and all trouble is removed.” $

TRADE REVIEW.
Don & Co.’s Report of Business for
Past Week.
Business failuri s occuiring throughout
the country for week ended November
6th, as reported l y R. G. Dun & C >.,
lumber for the United States 228, and
Canada 43, t r 306, compared with 255
the week previous. For the correspond
ing week last year the figure, v ere 215.
The failure of a widely known bank at
Boston (the Mveritly was a striking
event of the wet k, but has caused aston
ishment rather than disturbance. The
wiihdrawals < f money from New York
to fortify Boston caused higher rates, 0
per cent i gainst 3 per cent weeks ago,
but supplies continue to come steadily
Irom Europe. The Bank of England
does not change its rates, though losing
gold largely, and the official treasury re
port shows the addition of $33,000,000
to the actual circulation of all kinds in
October Crops are moviug fr< ely, to
that it seems scarcely possible that any
important monetary disturbance should
aiise at present. It is elso a reaesurh g
fact to enstenr capitalists and investor's
that the west- rn elections have result'd
in the complete defeat of tli se who ad
vocated wild financial schemes. So that
their power in the next sest-fi n of con
gres is likely to be rout h diminished.
Reporis from all parts of the country
shows that business, though interrupted
somewhat by the elections, has been
healthy and large in volume. At Boston
the failure of the Maverick bank caused
some uneasiness, but business continues
shady and healthy. No lack of con
fidence is seen, and money is easy. The
only cities rep rting monetary pressure
are Omaha and Savannah. The iron in
dustry, in spile of the-lowest piices ever
known for some products, shows no de
spondency, and the ch maud for manu
factured iron and steel does not diminish.
Trade in dry goods looks a little better.
The recent decision as to worsteds open
the way to largely increased impor s.
Tiade in coitons is not just now i qual to
!a-t year’s, but for the whole season thus
far it has been considerably larger.
THE GRAIN MARKET.
Speculation has lifted wheat If, though
western receipts cont nue eu< rmous. Ex
ports for the w*tk thus far are about
equal to those of recent weeks. Corn
has declin and half a cent, with somewhat
increased receipts at the west, and cotton
an eighth with very heavy receipts at
southern ports. Oil, pork, pioducts and
hogs are somewhat lower, but coffee is
half a cent highi r.
The general average of prices are a
shade lower for the week, and markets
are less embarrassed than usual by cliques
maintaining artificial prices. In the
main labor is well employed, with few
controversies about wages. Thiougbout
the country collections seem to be fuir
for the seas ro, and on the whole grad
ually improving.
ASSESSING THE RAILROADS.
Tennessee’s Corporation Tax Assessors
Make Their llcport.
A dispatch Irom Nashville says: The
state ho ird of railroad tax nsstssors have
completed their work, and their report
was made public Thu sday It shows a
total of 2.824 mil- s of railroad assessed
at $38,410,837. The valuation ranges

Knoxville and New River road, to $28.-
000 a mil”, asses ed to the
Louisville and Nashville main line,
the average being $13,039. The increase
of mileage over last year is 217 miles.
The ii crease in average valuation, $217,
and the in< n ase in total valuation, $3,-
527,130. The E st Tennessee, Virginia
and Georeia has 404 miles, the Lousville
and Nashville 467, and the Nashville,
Cbattanoopa and St. Louis 390. The
W stern Union Telegraph company has
9,722 miles of wire assessed at $388,908.

CYCLONE’RIVEN.
A Vessel Torn to Pieces and Seven
ty-Seven Lives Lost.
A cablegram under dote of November
9th says: Monday last a cyclone passed
over the Anadaman islands, situated in
the Bay of Bengal, a British convict set
tlement, to which East India criminals
are transferred. The steamer Enterprise,
belonging to the Indian goveri ment, and
used to convey pris mers to the islands
