1 If tlieruwusany improvement npparenl
' in business tlie advance of tlie Willi street
fVlirlces for rullreud Eccmitics would be
reasonable and might' be expected te be
permanent. But as there is no indication
of a revival in trade tliere can be no fair
ground upon which te aspect a revival of
railroad earnings. Tlie rise in stocks seems
te be based upon the belief tbat tliere will
be a cessation of railroad rivalries. Certain
agreements are teperted between the New
Yeik Central and Pennsylvania iallread
interest by which each iste lie down in its
pasture", and accept only its fair share of
business. Whereupon it appears te be sup
posed that the ether railroads of the coun
try, cliarmed by this neble exhibition
of unselfish wisdom, hae determined te
de likewise ; se that from henceforth
no company will carry geed that are in
tlie territory of another company, and
none w ill charge less than the ethers for
the like service Upen this belief railroad
stocks go up flying ; as the) ought te if tlie
idea was well founded; for a company
may carry a small amount of freight and
yet de a profitable business if it can charge
what it pleases. Tlie only sufferers by this
raihead loveliness are tie public, who may
be considered te be heartily damned by the
agreeing companies.
But if this expected thing, that balloons
the prices of railroad stdcks,ceines i cully te
pass, we may deem the millennium te be
upon us ; in which daj railroad directors
will be se geed that tluy will net take ad
vantage of the people any mere than they
will of each ether ; and se even the public
Vill net suffer if it be teally true tliji- the
railroad companies havj reached the sensi sensi
bie conclusion te steal no mere of each
ether's business.
We declare that wn nre liellirhted te sen

'But possibly they have net. 1 1 would be
se amazing, if they had,as te niake the fact
doubtful. It may be that they are only
, pretending ; each one cone iving that if he
seems te believe, some greater simpleton
will think him sincere and act accordingly.
There is no ether reasonable explanation of
the rise in stocks, save that it was con
cocted upon a theory of impossible cessa
tion of railroad rivalry, te bleed the
believers in such millennial happenings.
When the business of the country
se revives that it will give enough trade
te the railroads te go aieuud,
dividends may be looked fei and the
wise man may invest. It gees without
haying that increased prices of rail carriage
will net tend te revive business; and rail
road agreement to-llcete the public will
net help the wool te grew.

100 pounds or hay, halT-a-bushel or peas and
a peck or potatoes. Nobody knows hew

Sir. I'leudergrast, tlie kcecr of tlie animals
in tlie elephant house, says that en Sundays
and ether holidays the llttle merchant nt the

The prlncljVtl loed or the elephant Is hay.
