Ha, hal The llxpeudlture of Money. Merchant of lirooklyn. orNcwIott, is there a disarrangement in youraccountsT Is there a leakago in your money drawer?

The salary you gic linn may meet lavful expenditures, but not the unrm indulgence in which he has entered, aud he takes by theft that which you do not gne him in lawful salary. How brightly the patli of unrestrained amusement opens. The young man says. .'ti 1 am oil for a good time. Never mind economv, I'll get money somehow. What a line road! What a beautiful day for a ridel Crack the w liio. and over the turnpike! Come, lins. rill high lour glases. Drink! Long life, health, plenty of rides just like thisr' lfard w 01 kiug ipeu hear tho clatter of tho hoofs, and look up olid say, "Why, I wonder where those fellows get their money from! Ve have to toll and drudge. Thev do nothing." To these gay men life is a thrill and an excitement. They stare at other people, and in turn are stared at. The watch chain jin fflcs. The cup foams The cheeks flush. The ejes flash. The midnicht hears their guffaw. Ttiey swagger. They j.istle de cent men oft the sidewalk. They take the name f God in vain. They parody the hymn they learned at their innlueVs knee; and to all pict ures f coming disaster thev cry out. "Who cares!" and to the counsel of some Christian fnend. "Who are you?" Passing along the sticet some night, von hear a shriek in a grog shop, the lattle of the watchman's club, the rush of the police. What is the matter now? Oh, this reckless young man bas been killed in a grog shop tight. Carry him home to his fath er's hon-e. Parents will come down and wash his wound-, and close his eyes in death. They torsive him all he ever did, although he cannot in his silence ask it. The prodigal has got home at last. Mother will go td her little garden, and get the sweetest flowers, and twist them into a chaplet tor the silent heart of the way ward boy, and push back from the bloated brow thi'louglocks that were once her pi ide. And the air will be rent with the agony. The great dramatist says "How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child." I go lurther, and say those are unchristian amusements which become the ,chief business of a man's life. Lile Is an earnest thing. Whether wo weie born in a palace or hovel; whether wo arc affluent or pinched we have to woik. If you do not sweat with toil, yon will sweat with disease. You have a soul that is to be transhgurcd amidst the pomp of a judgment dav; aud after the sea has sung its last chant, aud the mountain shall have eolne down in an avalanrhe of rock, you will live and thinkand act. high on a throne where seraphs sing or deep in a dungeon where demons bowl. In a woild where there is so much to do for your selves and so much to do for others, God pity that man who has nothing to do. The Ileal Purpose of Amusement. Your sports arc merely means to an end. They are alleviations and helps. The arm of toil is the only arm strong enough to bring up the Ducket out of the deep well of pleasure. Amusement is only the bower where business and philanthropy rest while on their way to stirring achievements. Amusements are merely the lines that grow about the anvil of toll and the blossoming of the hammers. Alas for the man who spends his life in laboriously doing nothing, his days in bunting up lounging places and loungers, his nights in seeking out some gas-lighted loolery! The man who al wajshason his sporting jacker. ready to hunt for game in the mountain or fish in the brook, with no time to pray, or work or read, is not so well oil as the grajhound that runs by his side or the fl bait with which he whips the stream. A man who docs not work does not know how to play. If God had intended us to do nothing but laugh he would not have given us shoulders with which to lift, and hands with which to wnck. and brains with which to think. Ihe auiuseu'euts of life are merely the orchestra playing while the great tragedy of life plunges through its five acts infancy, childhood, man hood, old age and death. Then exit the last earthly opportunity. Enter the overwhelming rialitics of an eternal world! I go further, aud say tha. all those amuse ments are wrong which lead into bad company. If you go loanj placj where you havetoasso cia'to with the intemperate, with the unclean, with the abandoned, however wejl they may be dres-ed. In the name of God quit it. They will despoil vour luuurc. They will undermineyour moral character. Ihey will drop you when you aie destroyed. They will give not 1 cent to support jour children when yon are dead. They will weep not one tear at your burial. They will chuckle over your damnation. I had a friend at the West a rare lricnd. He wascneof the first to welcome me to my new home. To fine personal appearance he added a generosity, frankness, and ardor of nature that made me lov nimlik" a brother. But I sawevil peopl- gathering around him. They caiueupfr.ini the saloons, from the gambling hell--. They plied him with a thousand arts. They seized upon his social nature, and he could not stand the charm. They drove him on tho rocks, like a ship full-wingeu", shivering on the breakers. I used to admonish him. I would say, "Now I wish you would quit these bad habits and become a Christian." "Oh," he would reply. "I would like to; I would like to; but I have gone so far 1 don't think there is any wav back." In his moments of repentance, he would go home and take his little girl of 8 years, and embrace her convulsively, and cover her with adornments, aud strew around her pictures and toys, and everything that could make her happy; and then, as though bounded by an evil spirit, he would go out to the en flaming cup and the house of shame, like a fool to the correction of the stocks. Another Good Test In Choosing. Again: Any amusement that gives you a dis taste for domestic life is bad. How many hright domestic circles have beenliroken up by sinful amusements! The father went off, the mother went off, the child went off. There are to-day the fragments before me of blasted households. Oh. if you have wanderedaway 1 would like to charm you back by the sound of that one word "home." Do you not know that yon have but little more time to give to domes tic welfare? Do you not see, father, that your children are soon to go out into the world, and all the influence for good you are to have over them von must have now? Death will break in 01. your conjugal relations, and alas. If you have to stand er the grave of one who per ished from your neglect! I saw a waj-ward husband standing at the the death-bed ir his Christian wife, and I saw her point to a ring on her finger, and heard her sav to her husband, "Do you see that ring?" He replied. "Yes, I see it." "Well." said she. "do you remember who put it there?" "Yes," eaid ne. "I put it there,' and all tho past seemed to rush upon him. By the memory of that day v hen, in the presenre or men and angels, you promised to be faithful In joy and sorroi., and In sickness and in health; by the inomnry of those pleasant hours when you sat together in your new home talking of a bright future: bv the cradle and the joyful hour when one life was spared and another given; by that sick-bed, "when the little one lifted op the hands and called for help, and yon knew he must die, and he put one arm around each of your necks, and btought jou very near together in that dying kiss; by the little grave in Greenwood that you never think of without a rush of tears; by the family Bible, where, amid stories of heavenly love, is the brief butexpresMve record of births and deaths; bv the neglects of the past, and by the agonies of the future: by a judgment day, when husbands and wtvcs,parents and children, in immortal groups, will stand to be caught up in shining array, or to shrink down into dark ness; bv all that, I beg you give to home your nest aurcuuus Aft, mr lriends there is an hour coming wbc.i our past life will probably pass before us In review. It will be our last hoar. If from our death-pillow we have to look hack and see a life spen; in sinful amusement, there will be a dart that will strike through our soul sharper than the. dagger with which Virginius slew his child. The nietnoryof the past will make us quake like Macbeth. The iniquities and not ing through which we have passed will come upon us, weird and skeleton as Meg Jlernltesl Death, the old Shylock, will demand and take the remaining pound of flesh and the remain ing droo of blood: and upon our last oppor tunity for repentance and our last chance lor heaven, the curtain will drop forever.

DISSOLUTION OP BROMINE TRUST. rittslnrg's Interest In this Leading Cbem . ical Product HIDES AND CAliP SKINS ARE STEADY OFFICE OF PlTTfiBUltO DISPATCH. ( .. Saturday. March it i Cereals and Produce. The feature of the week past has been the sharp advance in cereal lines. Corn, oats and rye are 6 to 8c per bushel higher thau at the close ot last week. Government reports within the past few days have added strength to the upward movement. These reports show much ligh,ter stocks in the country than the aver age estimate. Ear corn has sold of late in carload lots at 70c per bushel. Bye has passed the dollar line, aud wheat is up to ?1 0G. Our city mills have advanced the price of fancy flour 25c per barrel this week and prospects are ior a still further advance. In grocery lines the feature of the week has been the rise of c per pound in coffee, both green and roasted. The produco trado bas developed nothing new. The looked-for rise in creamery butter failed to show up, and prices are substantially the same as a week ago. When creamery butter sells in a jobbing way atSSS3Sc per pound, as it has done the past week, it becomes a luxury and consumers di minish. The decrease of consumers has checked the upward movement. The loss in butter consumption has been great gain to the dealers in buttcrine, who are now reaping their greatest harvest. Hides and Calf Skins. The demand for light bides is scarcely as active as it was last week, but prices are practi cally the same. Steer hides are holding up well, when it is considered that quality of those of fered Is at the lowest during the months of February and March. Grubs are now getting in their best work, and the hides now coming to market are below the average in quality. Calf skins aro beginning to come in freely, and prices are steady. From now until summer is the time for the largest supplies in this line. The fact that price of calf skins remains steady at this date is taken by dealers as evidence that there will be no further decline. In an interview with a leading dealer it was developed that Irish hides are largely used in this country for the same purpose as buff hides, and that prices are firm, so that receipts from that quarter will not aid in lessening prices of buffs. From every quarter of the globe hides are brought to America to be worked up into leather. The United Ktates is now the largest leather producing country of the world, and notwithstanding that it ii the great cattle raising country of tho world, is forced to draw from the ends of the earth for tanner's sup plies.

ST0CKS AND MONET. Features of Speculation Interest In the tVestinglionse Group Subsiding. Everything connected with or relating to speculation Saturday was bearish, and tbe weather the worst of all. Sales w ere 201 shares, nearly all Electric. Snitch and Signal was the only other active stock. Sales for the week were 2,275 shares, the Bulk of which was furn ished bv Electric and Philadelphia Gas. Electric was weak on call yesterday, bnt was stronger on the street in the afternoon on the anpearanceof a few local orders. There was no outside demand for it. Philadelphia Gas was rather dumpish on re- Sorts of scarcity of fuel In all parts of the city, o ono appeared to bo hungry for the stock. Closing prices of the active interests as com pared with those of tbe previous Saturday, show gains and losses about equally divided. Switch and Signal showing most improvement and vLuster tbe heaviest loss.

SUGAR WEAKER AND" COFFEE STR0SG Office of Pittsburg Dispatch, Saturday, March 14. J Country Produce Jobbing Prices. Cold weather proved adverse to trade in this line, and the wind up of tbe week was quiet. Eggs are a sbade firmer, but 17c per dozen is the top of the market. Supply of creamery butter is light. Price is now too high for tho average pocketbook, and tbe con sumer prefers oleo, at one-halt tbe price of butter. High grade cheeso Is very firm and prospects are for higher prices. There is a con tinued good demand for good potatoes, and outside quotations rule. Apples move slowly for the reason that prices aro too high. A good apple is now about as expensive as a good orange Tropical fruits of all kinds go slow on account of cold weather. Arpi.ES ii 50E6 50 a barrel.

New York, March 14. Tho stock market to day displayed, unexpectedly, considerable ani mation, and the business of the two hours was equal to most of tne full days for tbe past week. There was a strong tond throughout the session, and material advances were made In some of tbe leading stocks, especially with tho promise of a continuance of the upward move ment into next week. The opening was generally firm, though rather irregular, but was followed by a,de cidedly strong market, in which special activity and strength were shown In Lackawanna, Bur lington, St. Paul and many specialties. There was a rush to sell Ltckawanna at the -opening, but it soon became evident that there were supporting orders in the stock, all the offers being accepted w itli considerable bidding for the stock. The hears withdrew their forces in tho face of this manipulation, and nothing was left to oppose tbe upward bent ot the marker. There was the usual dullness and stagnation in the general list, but the stocks mentioned were joined by some others, while among the specialties Rome, Watertown and Ogensburg continued to advance rapidly on slight sales, and scored a final gam of 8 per cent, closing at tbe highest price National Cordage. Colorado Coal aud others wore conspicuous for strength, which continued right up to the close, notwith standing a further loss of tbe banks' reserve, which is now brought below S10.00o,000 for the first time in some weeks. The usual realizing sales in the last few minutes bad scarcely any perceptible influence on the list, and the close was quiet and firm at tbo best figures. rhc followlnz table snows tne prices or active slocks on the Jfew York Stock Exchange yester day.

Old chronic cases that physicians declare incur able are cured in every instance where S. S. S., has had a fair trial. I honestly believe that S. S. S. saved my life. I was afflicted with the very worst type, of contagious blood poison and was almost a solid sore from head to foot. The physicians declared my case hopeless.
