Thr ntirinkiMcr ol Talurn. 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 pans emptied into the cart that | morning ft came. 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.
