As nn increato of fifty per cent, in the
number of failures within tlio last year
would at fir-t glanco appear very startling,
and as indicative of tho condition of trade
is n most important revelation. Hut tho
circular before us urges tonic suggestions on
this point that should not be lost sight of.
It says :
"As compared with tho number of parlies
in business, the pioportiou of failures does
not seem excessive, especially bearing iu
mind how long continued the depression in
all interests has. been. The number of per
sons now reported in business in the United
States on the books of the Agency arc O.IO,-
000. Of this number 7,740 have failed
during the year, indicating a proportion of
ono iu every eighty-two. It is true this is a
higher percentage than usual ; but wc ques
tion very much if it is u higher than pic-
vails iu oilier countries under similar cir
cumstances. In our previous quarterly
circulars wc took occasion to prove, by fig
ures then adduced, tho general correctness
of the position, and we believe if the stytii-
tics of the failures iu either countries for in
stance those of Great llrilaiu or Germany
wore accessible for the past year, the number
of failures iu the United States would be
found not propoitionately excessive. Wo
are entitled to whatever comfort this rc-
llcctinu may bring to us, especially to meet
tho frequent allegations that our misfortunes
aro the result of a monetary system diU'ering
from that of the rest of tho world. The
figures iu the above table from California,
whero business is dono on a gold basis, indi
cate that one trader iu every forty-two has
failed ; whilo in Canada, with a low tariff, a
mostndmirablo banking system on a gold
foundation, and a light taxation, the figures
ate even moio suggestive, tlio number of
failures having been ono in every twenty-
eight. This latter proportion is very ex
treme, aud is in amcasuro accounted for by
certain amendments to tho local Ikinkrupt
Law, to avail themselves of which a large
number both iu and out of business made
application for relief before tho expiration
- uiven period. Still it is undeniable
that,nlloui"b i'"-1 1-'"-" . c,,,
tires in Canada aro far in excess in propor
tion to those in tho UnitodStates.

i,s,reaso in the number of failures thau dur
