N. Y. Ex.iMiSEit: When the year
opened the price of silver in the .English
market was -it) S-lcf. per ounce, to which
level it had bceu slowly falling for some
time. Since then the decline has gono
on more rapidly, anrt oi tho 10th inst.,
the cable announced that it had sudden
ly dropped 1 47!. the lowest point,
with one exception, which it is known
to have ever reached a decline which
brings the actual value of our silver dol
lar down toa fraction less than eighty
cents. It is computed that the dcclln
in silver since the passage of the Illand
Bill has involved a loss cf $10,000,000
on the entire amount coined under its
urovisions, and a loss of S 1,000,000 on
the portion now in possession of the
Government, if it could he sold though
of course any such attempt would cause
the price to drop like the mercury when
a thermometer is dipped in ice-water.
The vagaries of Bllvcr as a standard, and
the additional inconvenience, of a vast
accumulation of It in coin which can be
neither used nor sold without heavy
loss, will, we hope, lead our legislators
to take vigorous measures to remedy the
present evil,
THE AUTUMN TRADE.
The N. Y. Sun of the 22nd inst., thus
sums up the outlook for the autumn
trade: The seaside hotels are closing up,
and chilly mornings in the mountains
have driven home all except a few of the
visitors from town. As a rale, people
are glad of an excuse to get hack, for
after a week or two country life is mon
otonous and wearisome to tho great part
of them, though they do not dare to so
cxnr3i it even to themselves.
With tho return of these wanderers,
tnd the ccneral reopening of residences,
family tr.de U rapidly quickening, and
the merchants are In better fcplriu.look
lus forward hopefully to good huslnets
Uuris; the rest of the year. And it is
s-Itogotbtr probable that the general re
tail trado will be brisk, especially In the
ordinary articles of family consumption,
although there Is sotting yet to Indicate
that the demand for costly lusnrlcs will
he greater than fcr a year past.
The evidences o( improvements in the
general businets situation arc not by any
tieins to str mg as they arc rcpusented
to be by many ttT.gi.ine obsctuu, but
Ifce price of articles cf i.ccusaj'j- b-
aumptlon are low, and stocks remaining
in the hands of country merchants were
extraordinarily small at the opening of
the autumn trade. As a consequence,
there has been a comparatively active
movement, especially In dry goods.
The circumstance that the grocery trade
has as yet rcceUcd little Impulse is not
an encouraging indication for those who
makefile wish father I o the thought, and
sas Jiui. Allium ILdayJi . ovxr. ..tad, the
hippy (tine' of prosperity has already
come. Such general Improvement as
there 1st, and undoubtedly there Is 1m
provement to a moderate degree, may
be only temporary. When people have
once supplied their deficiencies because
of long absttnenco from buying, tho
market is not unlikely to drop into its
old hand-to-mouth dullness.
Yet oven tho most conservative mer
chants are beginning to indulge hones
that the revived activity in ccttain de
partments of trado has come to stay.and
will liefoie long extend to business gen
orally. Let us trust that they arc not
deceiving themselves; but every wife
man will continue to trim sail carefully,
for at present Europe does not seem to
want our wheat, and depression there
may prevent us from selling our mag.
nlflccnt cotton crop, the greatest ever
raised in tho United States, at satisfac
tory prices. Our manufacturing indus
tries, too, arestlll stagnant In very great
part, or at least giving employment to
much fewer hands.
On the other hand, the prices of the
necessaries of life are low. Bread and
coal and clothing are cheap, and will ru-
main so during tho winter. The wages
of the mechanic and laborer buy far
more tiian heretofore, and the tendency
of the enormous accumulation of capital
to seek investment in building, in dc
fault of opportunities for its safe em
ployment elsewhere, results to the great
ndvantage of thousands of mechanics
and other workmen in this city, who get
good wages at a time when what they
most need is extraordinarily cheap.

Soeclal to the Caiibo.v Advocate.
I Once more tho chutches aro open, and
last Sunday seemed like a rongregatlon-
a) picnic, and I wish It distinctly under
I stood that lids Is not Intended for a Joke.
In every church there was a general
shaking of hands. The minister had
got through his two months' vacation,
and looking back he could scarcely real
ize that it was more than a couple of
weeks. "How time flics I" deacon
Smith remarked to brother Jones, and
Vrotlier Jones replied It did seem singu
lar; that he hardly felt that he had been
away at all till he looked at Ids chock
book, and then with a dccp'slgh said,
"Brother Smith it's awful expensive."
Brother Smith turned away, too full of
tlio subject to express himself properly.
All tlio .churches In New York and
Brooklyn -were open last' -Sunday arid
with very few exceptions, Willi their
regular pastors. - I notico that the high
priced minister's are tho last to come In.
In P.rooklyn.'Dr.-Storrs, Mr. Bcecher
and Dr.-Cuyicr have not yet put in an
appearance. .Supposing Mr. Bcecher to
preach every Sunday (which lie does
not) lie receives for every Sabbath In
the year $500. A Western audience
think they are giving Mr. Bcochcr an
enormous sum when he receives for a
lecture $250, and yet, Plymouth Church
Is willing to pay him $500 a day, year In
and year out, and think that they are
making money at that or at least lay.
ing up treasures in that bank where the
moth doth not consume, nor thieves
break in and steal. Doctor Talmage
gets $15,000 and Dr. Cuyler $10,000 a
year, so that a two months' vacation to
these gentlemen, means a very nlccsum
In hard cash; beside paying the Itinerant
clergymen who are called on to fill their
pulpits. There seems to bo a very great
disparity between the original and the
Itinerant representative. Mr. Talmage
receives $300 for each Sunday; but the
gentleman who represents him Is thought
well paid It he gets $25 with Ills lodging
over night, his breakfast, dinner and
car fare. In consequence of thn ab
sence of these three great lights, tho
pews their churches were not as full as
they will bo in a couple of weeks from
this time.
Mr. Haliiday, who U Mr. Becchcr's
assistant, and whose special business It
is to visit the sick and make congrega
tional calls, and preach In tho absence
of the great Plymouth Pastor, has late
ly been exchanging pulpits with the
pastor of the Sands Street Methodist
Church, the point of which is this: the
Sands Street Methodist Church Is one
of the oldest, most respectable and most
strictly orthodox Methodist Churches in
the elty of Biooklyn. Now, Mr. Halii
day is the representative of Mr. Bcecher
and Mr. Bcecher' a last sermon was on
evolution and In that sermon Jlr.
Bencher declared his unalterable unbe
lief in Sheol, where the worm dieth not
and the lire is not quenched. Can it be
possible that Methodism is drifting
away from Its sheet anchors? Wo will
wait till the regular pastor gets back be
fore pronouncing a decision.
Tho new Catholic Cathedral, the bare
foundation of which has stood unfin
ished for twelve years, Is now to be
hurried to completion. The cost of this
magnificent structure It will ho difficult
to compute, but it will bo among the
millions, as It is intended to make It one
of tho finest cathedrals In the United
States. When Bishop Louglilin first
presided in Brooklyn there were slv or
seven Catholic churches; now there are
nearly forty, all flourishing, and there is
hardly a church In the city that can con
tain Its congregation. It is only by
three or four duplicate services that tho
Catholics of the different parishes aro
able to gain admission to their churches.
Brother Talmage was met on the
steamer by alarge delegation of Ids tlock,
the fatted calf was slain and the pastor
was toasted In gingerpop, lemonade and
vinegar bitters, and every member of
the congregation went home after the
fun was over, slightly exhllerated by the
coffee aud doughnuts, but able to walk
a crack without wavering, and all de
claring that they bad had a most royal
time.
