The Encouraging Prospect of Husiness
Mutters.
Tbfhe has been a great doal of croaking about
business during the last few monthp, much
wore, in our opinion, than the fact3 of the
case warranted. In passing from the high
prices and immense expenditures of all kiml.s
incident to the late war, it was inevitable that
business should sustain moro or less of a
shock; but we contend that the actual derango
weut, the losses and failures, have been less
than there was reason to anticipate. There
have been no general failures, there has been
no panic, no sudden and violent contraction of
values, but a gradual and natural return from
the inflation of war towards the normal condi
tion of trade in a time of peace.
Many persons say business is dull and times
are hard, simply because they contrast the
more quiet movements and the slower gains of
the present with the unnatural activity and
the inordinate profits of war times. The man
who made, one hundred thousand dollars in
the year 1864 thinks times are very dull now,
beoause he makes this year, perhaps, only
half that amount; when very probably in any
year before thenar he would have been amply
content with such a business as he is now
doing. The fact is, there was so much specu
lation during the war, fortunes were made so
rapidly and easily, and business of all kinds
was transacted on such an inflated scale, that
men have hardjy yet regained their senses,
and find it extremely difficult and irksome to
return to the old order of things. Their dis
satisfaction finds vent in complaints about the
condition of trade.
In no year before the war do we believe that
the people of this country were so generally
out of debt as they are at the present time.
The profits of business during the war enabled
the most of the farmers to clear off their store
dobts and old mortgages, and as a class they
are to-day in a sound and solvent condition.
Moreover, during the war, the credit system
was very generally abandoned or greatly re
stricted, and, fortunately, has not yet had
time to inflict a new crop of evils upon the
country.
The great industries of the country are in a
comparatively prosperous condition. Manu
facturers, of course, are not making such im
mense profits as they did during the war,
when everything had an upward tendency,
and their stock often doubled or trebled in
value on their hands. There is, too, some
embarrassment growing out of the unwise
efforts of operatives, in some instanoes, to
secure an advance of wages in opposition to
the general downward tendency of everything
else. But these are ephemeral things. They
will soon right themselves. On the other
hand, we read almost daily of the building of
manufacturing establishments on a large scale
in various and widely separated parts of the
country.
Farming is being prosecuted more exten
sively than ever before. The scarcity of labor
during the war stimulated to a wonderful de
gree the introduction and use of labor-saving
implements, so that we estimate the produc
tive power of the farming population to be
much greater to-day than it ever wa3 before
in this country. "We shall be much sur
, prised if this fact does not reveal itself in the
crops of the present year. The present high
prices of wheat are exceptional, and due to a
very light crop last year. We find butter,
cheese, pork, and wool, however, much
oheaper than for several years past. Fair
crops this year, Buch as now seem probable,
will bring the cost of the great staples of life
hack pretty well towards the old standard.
The politioal outlook, too, is much brighter.
There can be no doubt that the business of the
country has suffered severely from the tremen
dous political agitation which tke President
forced the country into by his foolish and
almoBt insane warfare upon Congress. The
prospect last summer, when he was stigma
tizing the highest and most imnort.int nrt.
ment of the Government as a "so-called Con
gress,'" body hanging on the verge of the
Government, as it were;'' and, through his
"v'j was asKing the people
whether they preferred "Andrew Johnson as
president or as King," was not such as con
JI j x 1
uuceu to uumiiubb uciivuy. Nobody knew
Where such consummate folly might lead to
Visions of a coup d'e'tg.t, and of a general break
up, loomed before the timid eyes of capital
wi uiu ma uoiuu cluneals ui me earner Tiart
of the late sessions of Congress between that
body and the President serve to improve
matters much.
The final triumph, however, of that most
wise and conciliatory measure of sound states
manship, the Congressional plan of recon
struction, with the President's submission
thereto, has changed the aspect of affairs won
derfully. The long and dangerous conflict
between the Executive and the Legislative
Departments of the Government has finally
been settled upon a proper bas, and the
President's execution of the lloeonstruuti0
law is a practical abandonment of that usur
pation of legislative powers which furnished
the chief ground for his proposed impeach
ment. The practical effect, too, of that great
measure in conciliating the South, in harmo
nizing its people, and in adding to the body
politic several millions of loyal and attached
citizens, is well calculated to inspire renewed
confidence in the publio mind. If the plan
shall, be wisely and honestly carried out, we
shall probably behold all the States in the
Union and the whole great work completed
before the Presidential election of 18(58.
From this brief but comprehensive survey
of the situation we draw encouragement for
the future. We believe the transition from
war prices and war habits of trade, from in
flation and extravagance back to the prices of
peace, will be accomplished without any gene
ral financial crash or disaster. We believe
the country is in a comparatively sound and
healthy condition, and will successfully out
ride all the gales that may blow upon it.
Economy, prudence, and industry will oarry
us safely through.
Tiik World Movks The New York World,
the leading organ of all the Northern
Democracy, publishes a letter to-day from
William Howard Day to the colored voters of
New York, which says:
"Go, therefore, to the polls on Tuesday next,
and vote only for men who are pledged to vote
to rcmoveall distinctive clauses nualusl'us lu that
Coustltutlon."
On which letter the World says, edito
rially :
"The mistake which Mr. Day makes Is in
supposing that there will be any serious con
tent In the Constitutional Convention on the
subject of rentrioilons upon the suffrage fran
chise bused upon color."
Had any one told the Democratic party five
years ago that it would have thus deserted all
the established tenets of its leadors since the
days of Jefferson, he would have received the
indignant reply, "Is thy servant a dog that he
should do this thing f" Yet now we find
that party, North and South, eager to shake
the much despised Sambo by the hand, so that
they can thrust a ballot into his palm while
they wring it with brotherly affection. Who
can doubt, with such a proof before us, that
the world moves ?
i
Cholera. Surgeon-General Barnes has
issued a circular letter of direction to each
of the surgeons under his command, giving
them specific directions in regard to the anti
cipated visit of the cholera. After detailing
what practice is best, he directs that a record
of the symptoms in each case, with the re
sults of the autopsies, be forwarded to the
office of the Surgeon-General. We will thus
have in the control of the Government a re
liable collection of cases and the result of their
treatment, which may aid in solving the
nature of that mysterious and fatal epidemic.
New York votes to-day for members to a
convention to revise her State Constitution.
Both parties have nominated their best men,
but the lines of partisanship are, happily, not
very tightly drawn. It is probable that, not
withstanding all the exertions of the journals,
a very light vote will be polled. Our State
Constitution needs revision quite as much as
that of New York. We see, however, no
chance of getting a convention called, as other
provision is made for amendment, which is
not less effective.
Thb last European news is decidedly war
like. France is reported to be attempting to
purchase arms from the United States.
Prussia is arming, and the tone of the foreign
journals and the depression of the Rentes all
indicate probable strife. Such is the talk
to-day. To-morrow we will probably be told
that everything has been amicably arranged.
The stories told remind us strongly of the
uvenile game of "Now you see it and now
you don't."
The mind of the Princess Charlotte is said
to be hopelessly darkened. Her physical
health is good, but the animated expression of
that unfortunate lady's face has gradually
vanished, nntil there is but the blank stare of
vacanoy in place of that smile which so
charmed the Mexican people.
The Academy of Fine Arts.
That there la something singularly appro
priate In the selection of this season of the year
for the opening of annual art exhibitions, seems
to be understood in all countries where the love
of the beautiful is fostered and encouraged
Late In April, or In the beginning of May, the
academies and Institutes devoted to the display
of painting and sculpture open wide their doors
to those anxious to see the latest works of their
favorite artists, or to others indulging In the
vague expectancy of seeing co' lections that will
cast the memory of former ones Into a shadowy
insignificance.
If there were any of the latter category among
the elite of our city who attended the private
view at the Academy of the Fine Arts on Satur
day night, their Ideas were surely realized, for
we have never before seeu so many fine works,
and so few of an inferior character, in any pre
ceding exhibition. A special reason for this
result Is to be found lu the fact that most of the
Philadelphia artists have withdrawn their sup
port from the Academy, in order to advance
the Interests of the Artists Fund Society,
whose avowed object Is to encourage and assist
In every manner the progress of the painter
living In our midst an object for which the
Acadamy was oi lKiually founded, but, accord
incto the opinion of those qualified to Judge,
this laudable motive has been altogether neg
lected and lost from view by the last-named
Institution.
In conseouenceof the feeling engendered by
thiB stale of affairs, the "Fund Society" have
now on exhibition at their galleries a oouec.
tlonof works palutea by the members of the
society; and although tho display is not large.
yetltuos themerltof showing the great pro.
gress art Is tnuklnE in our midst, notwith
standing an array of most discouraglngcli cura
stances. Th in rect ors of the Academy, know
lng that thev would bo thus deprived of the
contributions of those genilemeu, set to work
energetically to anther all the best foreign and
New York pictures they could procure; and
their Individual and united efforts have had a
good result, as far as the character of the exni
Dillon Is concnriiml.
We yield to none in an appreciation of a fine
picture or statue, and are glad to give our praise
t any true art produotlou, be it foreign or
fcatlve. Yet, at the same time, we feel that the
fashion of almost worshipping any and every
picture (daub or masterpiece) that bears
foreign name. U a prevalent mania that de
serves vigorous and bearty deprecation. That
there are many noble works Imported from
Kurope to gladden the hearts of oonnotsf ours,
the walls ot the Academy at this moment
abundantly testify. At this fact we rejoice, and
all true artists will give such works a hearty
recognition; but can anything be more pre
posterously absurd than to see men, of a certain
class of would bo dilettanti, gravely looking
for the artist's name in the corner of the ploture
before they pronounce their feeble opinions
thereon, but who, when well assured that the
picture Is of foreign origin, form themselves
around It, and, figuratively speaking, swing
clouds of Incense and chant picans in Its honor.
This Cretin-like peculiarity received, through
certain circumstances, an astonishing Impetus
the past winter. Would thatwecould record the
decline of such a feeling; It would indeed be
welcome Intelligence to American artists.
As far as our own sympathies are couoerncd,
we frankly confess that they are cordially ex
tended to the pnlnters and sculptors or our own
land, and particularly those who reside In our
own fair city; for although the position of many
oftlietn Is most prosperous, yet the greater num
bcrof them have many and great difficulties to
surmount before they And favor in the eyes of a
publio afraid to trust Its own Judgment In art,
but who prefers to follow the beaten track or
popular prejudice.
At the beginning of the present article we
alluded to the appropriateness of the exhibi
tion opening In the spring time, our Idea being
that the pictures there exhibited may be con
sidered in a certain sonse the flowers of many
studios, and tl at there is a sort of poetlo fit
ness in displaying them at a time when nature
is sending forth her violets and' primroses;
and yet, on entering the galleries this impres
sion of ours wears quite away, for even If It
were boisterously wintry outside, does not
eternal summer smile at us from many sides?
For Instance, could we not turn to that fine
work marked No. 33 In the catalogue, and la
imagination transport ourselves at once to
meadows like those through which the tired
oattle are homeward tramping? How suggestive
of the long summer day Is the color of the
tufted grasses in the foreground; how full of
suggestlveness the greyish trees In the back
ground! This Is indeed a picture that will com
mand a merited admiration. Those patient
cows have no donM Just been roused from that
qniet contemplation they seem to indulge In
while rest ing beneath the shadow of some wide-
spreading tree, and now they come one after
another, following the half-beaten path. It is
a work full or merit, that appeals to the imagi
nation, and at the same time commands praise
for the tplendid technical ability or the exe
culion.
jso. txi, "uoveiousness," by isougucreau. is a
large and Imposing canvas, that is distin
guished by many fine qualities of painting,
In fact, the great merit of this artist Is his
wonderful ability in rendering the modelling
of forms. That he himself seems conscious of
this, is evidenced by the fact that he Intro
duces the nude figure as much as possible,
Babes, Innocent of drapery, abound in his pic
tures, ana although, there Is nothing more
charming than these lit tle creatures In their
simplicity, 3'et any one familiar with Bou
guereau's works for the past few years, feels
constrained to exclaim "'Tovjoura baby!" In the
subject under consideration, the head of the
Italian woman is most noble and womanly in
expression. She looks all love with her dark
eyes, and If the rest of the painting were medi
ocre (which Is not the ense), this splendid ren
dition of this feature of the work would stamp
It as a masterpiece. The accessories (land
scape, etc.) are not so well given.
No. 59, "The Villa Morena," by Calamo, Jr..
shows great realistic ability In the artist. It Is
a contribution that we specially admire. How
poetically the welrd-liko trees fling out their
grey old branches, binding and interlacing
with each other in close embrace! What breadth
of shadow In the receding pathway! and how
broad the flood of light that pours over the topsof
the tangled foliage! Vigorous In handling, yet
having the effect of careful finish, It is much to
be commended as a strong rendering of a natu
ral effect.
A very large picture, by Blerstadt, is cata
logued No. 74, entitled "Mount Hood." Although
we consider the picture to bo a very eood one,
we canuot reconcile ourselves to call the work
great, simply because much canvas Is covered. I
We do not derive, In looking upon it, any lm
presslon of uncommon ability In the treatment
of the subject, such as was evidenced by the
same artist in bis "Storm in the Rocky Moun
tains." The painting of the water In the raid
die distance Is positively poor. The right-hand
corner of the foreground gives some Indication
of the real strength of Mr. Blerstadt's handling,
No. 89, a large and ambitious subject by Mr,
Joseph Johns, Is entitled "When the War was
Over." There can be no doubt that this pictuie
will give great pleasure to very many people,
and, Indeed, the artist deserves credit for the
progress that he evinces in the treatment ot his
light and color. He has excelled In Imparting
a most agreeable lone to many of the figures
and parts of the landscape, at the same time
giving a most agreeable variety of light and
shade. The drawing throughout Is somewhat
weak, especially In the figure of the young sol
dier who is seated In a chair to the right of the
principal group. From an nrtistic view, the
picture is painted with too much desire to make
things look extremely respectable. For In
stance, the soldier, with his bride leaning
lovingly upon bla arm, looks us If he thought
himself, like "Turveydrop," a model of depdrt
ment, and seems to be Indulging (mentally) in
a train of self-laudatory remarks similar to
those the well-known Johu Horner, Jr., gave
expression to after extrcllug the plum from
the pie. Apart from these drawbacks, Mr,
Johns may be sincerely congratulated upon tho
successful results of his lubors.
Among other Philadelphia artists who have
contributed to this year's exhibition, aud whose
works shall receive our attention In a future
article, may be mentioned Hamilton, Lamodin,
Richards, Galvan, Moran, Bensell, Cresson,
and others.
ThOBe who have seen the display of which we
write, must have been Impressed with its supe
rlorlty over any yet held at the Academy. At the
same time, H may he asked, Is there anything
flattering to our self-love or patriotism in the
fact that the only Institution of an established
prestige that Fhlludelphla possesses should
serve as an asylum for foreign niMnrns. and
how only, not the progress of our artists, but
the advances that are being made in the paint
ing schools of Tails, Uusseldorf, Antwerp, or
Brussels Knowing this, we cannot help
asking, U It Just or generous to give the advan
