CIIKISTA1A3.
Condition
it Trade in this Clty
IVhoie Kutlier Doll.
llii the
'Tis the week beforo Christmas, and
from numerous inquiries made among
business men of the city it appears evident
that in most branches of trade there is a
very considerable falling off, as compared
with former years. Tho drygooJs men,
with very few exceptions, say their sales
aro comparatively light, though they do
not feel like complaining. The same may
bo said of tho boot and shoa tiade.of hats,
caps, furs and gentlemen's furnishirg
goods. Tho clothiers say that while theie
is a decided increase iu tho merchant tail
oring department, for a few weeks p ;sr,
thero is a falling off iu the ready made
department. Tho booK-sclicrs arc doing
a good business in fine books, children's
picture books, albums, picture stands,
fancy stationary, &c, and express them
selves satisfied with trado. Tho jewelers
also are doing a fair business, but hardly
up to last year's mark ; they hope that
the sales of the next few days will push
them up to the usual figures. Dealers iu
millinery aud ladies' fancyoods aro doing
well, but not quite so well as they ought
to, considering tbe increased supply of
costly goods with wh'ch they have load
ed their shelves and counters. Furnituto
dealers say trado is a little flit, but
they expect some improvement in it before
the holidays end, and a still greater im
provement when spring opens aud
" housestires " for the young folks aro in
demand. The gloss and queensware
trade might bo better, but considering the
trade in other branches, dealers won't
complain. In toys, confections, groceries,
and fancy articles of all kinds there is a
lively trade, which increases as Christmas
approaches. Two or three of the princi
pal business firms who, during the past
year have enlarged their stores and other
wise increased their facilities, report
a largely increased trade, but tho
1 report of most all others is that
there has been a falling off. This is ac
counted for by tho fact that the tobacco
trade is very stagnant ; that while at this
time last year a great proportion of the
crop of '81 had been sold at high figures,
this year there has been scarcely auy of
the crop of '82 sold. Last year by this
time, a large proportion of the crop had
been stripped and delivered at tbe ware
houses, in which, a thousand men and boys
were at work, earning from $5 to $15 per
week, and spending it, too. This year but
little has been stripped, none delivered,
the packing houses are closed, and
the men and boys are without
wot k and have no money to spend. Thero
is doubtless some foice in this reasoning,
and there is still another reasou given for
tho comparatively dull season. The
farmers are leeding more cattle this year
than ever before; many of them were
bought with borrowed money, which
they expected to pay with the proceeds of
their tobacco crop, as they cannot pay it
with their grain and bay, all of which
they arc feeding to the cattle. Of course
they will have their reward in due time
and have plenty of money to spend but
not to day somo other day.
Large Funerals.
The funeral of Samuel H. Slaymaker
took place from tho residence of his
brother, Henry . Slaymakor, at Duke
aud Chestnut stieets. It was very largely
attended. Funeral services were held at
tho house and grave by Rev. Dr. Knight.
The pall bearers were, Samuel Reynolds,
Chas. F. Hager, Win. A. Atlee, John D.
Skilcs, Georee Nauman, Wm. A. 3Iorton.
The interment was made at Woodward
Hill.
The funeral of the late Dr. Thomas B.
Cox, whose sudden death on Saturday
last was recorded in these columns, took
placo from his late residence, Eaf-t German
street, this afternoon at half past oue, and
was very largely attended by friends and
relative, tho number of young friends and
companions of the deceased, his sorrowing
patients aud professional biethren being
conspicuous. 3Iany beautiful flowers
weio sent as the last tributes of
love,, aud as tbe body of the
dead physician lay in the parlor
in a handsome casket the features wore a
very natural aud peaceful expression. The
funeral services were conducted by Rev.
Dr. Gieenwald, assisted by Rev. Chas. L.
Fry, of Trinity Lutheran church. The
pall bearers were Drs. Welchans, Roland,
Ringwalt, 3Iusecr aud Foreman, aud the
iuteiment was at the Lancaster cemetery.
"The Dnnlten."j
The youug lady who was billed as the
"stai" in the Palmer & Ulmor "Danites"
company that last night appeared before a
slim audience iu Fulton opera house, is
an untrained amateur, whose performance
presented so fow features of merit that
it is only tho part of charity to refrain
from couriering it. It is enough that Miss
U liner caunot act, but as she is evidently
a very young person and new to tho stage
she may in time develop dramatic qualities
of which tho glimpses furnished inner
pciformanco last night were few and far
between. The company were generally
indifferent, though the men were a good
deal better than the women.
A Christmas Present.
Eldci Wctbhampel's Toreli ot Truth.
Mrs. Weisbampel has received a hand
some photograph card from Baltimore,
bearing tho portraits of our thiee good
sous. John F., Benjamin F. and Howard
B. Weisbampel, aged respectfully 50, 45
and 3i years. Sho is very much pleased
with her prcscut. Aloug with tho picture
came a slip of paper, on which aro written
tho following very gratifying lines :
" We three brothers be in ono cause
Wo are indeed.
Not ono of us puff.
Mot ono of us snuffs,
.Not one ot chaws
The 'filthy weed.'
Our lather taught us not to uso it."
The Colored Ball,
The ball of the Good Will comet band
(coloicd) held in West End ball last night
was a fiiio affair. The attendance of both
coloied and white people was very large.
The dancing was kept up until a late hour
and tho piizo a plush photograph framo
for tho best pair of wallzcrs was award
ed to George Book and3Iiss Katio Groy.
