Tho hard times for Now York and
the whole country continue. Mon
> have looked forward to a change
j which does not couie, and which
[ seem# as far off a* ever. The diqires
| slon promises to bo long, and the re-
I rival only to be arrived at after a
f great shrinkage of values and the ro
| duotion to the strictest economy of
r public and corporate administration
and private life. We arc ia the bauds
S of circumstances which no human
‘ wisdom can manage or shape, and we
shall be obliged to shape ooraelres to
I them. Wo have too many railroads,
: and they have cost too much.
We have overdone manufactures,
• and our mills are lving idle, or run
r ning to no profit. We have too many
middlemen in trade. In brief, wc
have too many facilities for business.
There is not business enough in the
country to employ the men and the
capital'that arc devoted to it; nud we
can only grow up to the employment
, of them l>y slow and i>ainful degrees.
We shall reach this point quicker by
tlie necessary diversion of tliis capital
and labor to productive pursuits, Or
by the destruction of the otic and t he
forced withdrawal of the other.
! Now York seems likely to suffer
more than any other city ; the reason
being that the high price at which
!■ real estate is held enforces an unex
j amplcd expense in doing business.
: The number of stores unoccupied on
' Broadway is a very unpleasant indi
( cation of the state of affairs in the
: city. Business is being absolutely
forced into side streets, because mcii
cannot afford to pay tile Broadway
I rents. Taxes are enormous, simply
t because the people who do business
tin New York cannot afford to live
f here. Brooklyn lias been largely
t..built up by New York men. New Jer
| acy thrives at our expense. The towns
Up the river and out into Westchester
H county are made and sustained very
1 tnrgely by men who would live in
• New York if they could afford to do
a so. The suburbs of New York are
' drinking tlie life of the city; and New
... York goes on laying out its bouie
: Yards and streets, while the a butters
cannot sell their lots to builders,
a Nor is this all, or tho worst. Busi
ness goes, in tiie ioug run, where it
can bo done the cheapest. If any
Specified number of Western products
oun be handled and shipped more
easily mid cheaply at Baltimore, or
Philadelphia, or Boston, than in New
York, that fact settles the question
as to where they will bo handled and
shipped. Trade naturally goes to the
metropolis of trade. New York is
universally recognized to lie the mo
. tropolis, and, so far, has the lead and
the advantage; but. if she cannot
furnish the conditions for doing busi
ness as cheaply as it can tie done else
where, trade will just us naturally
turn away from her as water will run
down hill. If business men will ex
amine tho prices of real estate in the
competing cities we have mentioned,
and compare them with those that
' rule in New York, they will under-
St stand precisely why it is that the pro
gress of diversion lias already begun.
I For this matter of real estate and
R rents is destined to settle the whole
F question for New York, with alt her
I prestige.
Business will go where it can be
done the cheapest, and that question
. will be mainly settled by the prices
Eof real estate. The element of rent
■goes into everything. The clerk who
If pays from two to five dollars more a
| week for ids board than he would bo
■obliged to uuy in Baltimore or Phila
| dclphia, must have that sum added
Ito his weekly wages. The workman
| who pays fifty or a hundred dollars
1 more per annum for Ilia tenement
than if ho were in a neighboring cit y,
must, in someway, earn that addi
tional amount. Not only our trade,
but our manufactures, are thus sub
; jeet to this extra tax, and therefore
work at a constant and killing disail
!* vantage.
If New York is ever to thrive again,
and perfect its growth and impor
jf tanee as indubitably tlie great Amer
f iean city, her real estate mast shrink
I so that her own people may live upon
t Manhattan Island, and thus reduce
6- her rate of taxation, and so that
I business can be done here as cheaply
las it can be done elsewhere. It is
fc hard for a man- who lias had fifty
i thousand dollars a year for a Broad
f way store to take twenty-live thous
| and. It is hard for a man who has
I paid fifty thousand dollars for a
f house, or thirty thousand for a lot, to
1 sell it at thirty per cent, discount:
I but the sacrifice must be made and
t the shrinkage submitted to. Rapid
| transit may accommodate a limited
F number of business men now living
f within the city limits, but it will not
I populate the vacant territory, unless
! it, can !• cheaply bought and built
| upon.
The cost of living in New York is
I something fearful. A man can buy
Ia dinner for his family at Washington
I Market at a fair price, but the uio-
F meat the staples of that market are
I moved up town, a sum is added in
f many Instances equal to their origi-
L nal cost at the producer’s door. Beef
f that originally cost from four to six
dollars on the foot, rises to an equal
, advance by passing from Fulton
F street to Forty-second street: yet we
| do not know that the market-men
F make too much money. Turkeys
i that cost eighteen cents at Washlng-
I ton Market, rise to twenty-five by
i riding three miles. All this must be
t changed, aud it can only be changed
E by a fall of rents.
Would it not be well for New York
I to look all these facts in the face, and
I accept them, with ail their practical
I consequences, before it is forced to
[ do so in chronic adversity or general
I disaster ? There is but one way out of
I our trouble. It is just ns patent to
r day as it will ever bo, to all wise men.
| Why not enter upon it at once, and
I thus oust the incubus that is pressing
I the life out of us.—Scribner for ,hmc.
:—
i Hero are two straws which have
I some significance ns showing the
f financial condition of the country,
f The one comes from thrifty, econom
[ ical Connecticut, and tho other from
| quite-the-reverse Chicago. Tho Bank
[ Commissioners of the Nutmeg State
! report an increase in the savings
t bank deposits of Connecticut from
[ $70,769,1KH1 to $7.1,78:1,000 iri the past
[ year, a gain of nearly 1 per cent. The
[ May quarterly statement of the Na
| tional Banks of Chicago shows that
I since January 1, 1871, there has been
again of *8,000,060 in the loans, of
more than *4,000,000 in legal-tenders
l and cash, and of *18,000,000 more
than GO per cent in deposits. Those
two reports from widely differing lo
calities pretty clearly prove the recu
peration of the country from the panic
of 1878, and indicate a sure, if slow,
approach to an era of business pros
perity.
Tho demonstration that the nation
ran respect the courage of her dead
sons, on whichever side they wore
arrayed, the mutual respeet paid to
the memory of those who once met
in deadly battle, is a hopeful sign
that the living may yet bury all their
animosities and unite in the heartiest
efforts for the weal of their common
country.— Rochester Democrat aud
Chronicle (Rep. )
—As a garbage cart was dumped
lately in the suburbs of London a
human head rolled out of the mass.
It was fresh and bleeding, and the
mystery is from which one of the ash

APPLKTONB’
American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Kml rely rewritten by the Ablest writers on every
subject. Printed from new type, sntl illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
and Maps.
Tho work originally published under the title
of Tins Nkvv American oyoi.oivv.ma was com
pleted in IKoa. Min e which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, ami the sigual developments which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art. have induced the editors and
publishers to submit it to su exset slid thorough
revision, and to issue anew edition entitled Tmk
American Cyclop jcdia.
Within tho last ten years the progress of dis
covery iu every department of knowledge has
made s new work of reference su imperative
want.
Tho movement of political affairs has kept puce
with the discoveries of science, aud their iruitful
application to the industrial aud useful arts and
the convenience aud rotlueinont of social life.
Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc
curred, iuvolviug national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil war of our own country,
which was ut its height when the last volume ol
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
aud anew course of commercial aud industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
Tho grout political revolutions of the last de
cade. with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names are in every one** mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious t know tUe
particulars. Great battles have Wen fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails arc as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or m the transient publications of tho day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
Iu preparing the present edition f"r the press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, aud to furnish an accurate account of
the most rscent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, aud of tho newest
inventions iu the practical arts, us well as to give
a succinct and original record ot the progress of
political and historical events.
The work has been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with tlie most ample
resources for carrying it on to a successful term
ination.
None of tho original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page lias been priutod ou
new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopedia, with
the. same plan aud compass as its predecessor,
but with a fur greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements in Its composition
as have beeu suggested by longer experience aud
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present edition have beeu added
not lor tho sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and force t“ the explanations in
the text. They embrace all branches of science
and of natural history, and depict the most
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture and art, as well as the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather thau
embelishnieut, no pains have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, and it is believed they
will fiud a welcome reception as au admirable
feature of tho Cyclopedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
ou delivery of each volume. It will bo completed
in sixteen large octavo volumes. .Mich containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Eugruvings, and with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

THE SUN.
DAILY AND WEEKLY FOR 1875.'
The approach ! tho Presidential election gives
unusual importance to the events and develop
ments of 1876. We shall endeavor t< describe
them fully, faithfully and fearlessly.
TIIE WEEKLY NUN has now attained u circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
are found in every State and Territory, and its
quality is well known to the public. We shall
not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old
standard, but to improve and add to its variety
and power.
THE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and always, wc
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is onr atm to make the Weekly Ann the best
family newspaper in the world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print nothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. it will always
contain tlie most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected aud legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department is a prominent
feature iu the Weekly Hun, and its articles Will
! always be found fresh aud useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in politics is
increasing, and the Weekly Hun is their paper
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, and lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces tho country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It. has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
Tlie price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As tliis barely pays the expenses of paper
and printing, we are not able to make any dis
count or allow any premium to friends who may
make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Ban at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year.
We have no traveling agents.
THE WEEKLY SUN—Eight [i|n, M column,. I
Only s].2o a year, postage prepaid. No discount j
from this rate.
THE DAILY’ SUN—A large four-page newspaper
of twenty-eight columns. Daily circulation over
120,000. All the news for 2 cents. Subscription,
