Impresfloo sftrr tho ol isinir of business
yestorday that the pa-ia. of the Illaod
-ei?iiiornge bill would result iu bringing
out Ions stocks for foreiga account and
oporutors for hiulier prices accordingly
worn inclined to be somewhat depressed.
Instead of selling, however, London bought
a little. Tho bears met another disappoint
ment when tho ennnemont of 11,300,000
gold for shipment to Londuu tomor
row failed to exorciso the slijjhtust
unfavorablo lniluonce on stock prion.
So far at tho reports that the
president will permit the illnud bill
to Ifcoinu a law are concerned it may
not be out of placo to reiterate previous
statements that tho best opinion here is
that the measure will nut receive executive
sanction. The market dragged aloii',' un
til uoar the close wbeu there wus u spread
of activity but, notwithstanding this
spurt, i he transactions for tho day were
ouly 189,000 shares. There were some
wide fluctuations m the Industrials, Cor

Week by week, says Dun, it is found
possible by un iuereasiug number of
concerns to revive production with a
general range of prices the lowest ever
known As old stock giva out, orders
for replenishment are first fur oheepsr
goods than nave before been chosen,
traders therein representing; consumers
vrlionre omn polled or desire toltve more
cheaply. Then the quantities ordered art
so much smaller than tho industries
have been accustomed tosnpply.aud so
(ar bolow the v ipacity of works that
the competition drives prices in each
grade down to or bolow nottul cost,
Miueezing out profits and forcing down
wages. Yet the proms a id the wages
are the fund from wbieli future pur
chases for consumption must be made.
1: is under ructi conditions tint more
works ure goint; into operation, many
with n doubt how long they my b"
able to operate. Thus ths measure of
restnuptnn by works or hands or hours
of labor is not a measure ot the revival
iu business, either 111 to (juintity or
valuoa of goods distributed.
Prices of commodities nre this week
on the whole the lowest of which there
is any record, having declined per
omit. In Marchandnveragi11gll.il per
cent, lower than 11 year ago. Six mors
iron furnac's have gone into blast this
month, in pitrt because pries of lin-
ished products are a shale lnwir, and"
further contracts have tbus been se
cured. Pittsburg gats the lion's share,
Hud bus mort of its work in operation
flails aro inactive and deliveries every
where arii the lowest for many years
Cheapness of material and labor stim
ulates the erection of many buildings,
both eatt nnd wear. I'ig iron does not
change In price, but sales are some
what more easy.
Th volume of business repr-scnted
by all clearings tLis week li 81 9 pf r
cent, less than a year ago, nn 1 al all
cities, outside New York, 31,4 per
Oent. less, ugaiust 17 4 per cent, last
week. Baifroad earnings nuke a bat
ter comparison, falling but 10. G per
cent, below last year's for the first
week of March against 10 7 per Ceu'..
in February; but kbagaiu is in pirt
because trunk lines have cut rates and
secured, for the first week in a long
time, a larger east-bound movement
than was recorded a year ago. Tile
west-bound movement is also largoriu
dry goods and groceries. Railway
stocks have beoa remarkably steady,
and havo slightly advanced the uast
week.
Monetary conditions have hsen grow
ing more favorable, though it is im-
powble to say now lur thev mny Le
changed by the passage ol the seig
morage bill. Ibo treasury has been
improving its condition, for while
customs revenue this month has been
l") per cent, less than last year, there
is some recent increase in internal
revenue through removal of spirits
torn bond to avoid -01 higlir tax.
There 1 is no demand for commercial
loans. Exports of products ars 40 per
cent above and imports 39 below last
years for the month t'.iui ir. railnres
for the week is 201 iu the United States
against 10!) last year, and 5 in OaUada
gainst 11) last year The absn.:e of
important embarrassment is still mod
encouraging.
A careful investigation of th op$n-
tioue of mills and gl ill ho ists In the
Pittsburg region, show ab mt 75 pir
cnt of the operatives working nnd not
many of the remaining 2) per cent, are
dependent upon public charity. Many
of the iron, std and glass workers ure
in such circumstances Knit they conld
live comrortnbly in Idlenesj for several
years without assistance from any
source. Within the past ten days there
have boen frequent notios of resump
tion of work at various industrial es
tablishments in the Put bur..' district,
and other indications are that a general
improvement has set in.
Independent coil operators tell the
Philadelphia Times that there has been
a drop In coal prices, due to the warm
weather. Ihe decline has bsen on dis
count of spring prices, which will b
fixed on th 20th instant. The demand
for broken and egg siz-i is better than
that for stove nnd chestnut, owing to
the fact that lb to is not sufficient to
meet the demand for p. a ami buck
wheat siZ'S. The trade, is in u waiting
condition and with tho olfl Mat estab-
lislim.'nt of a lower baiis considerable
business is expected to result. Priueu
at New York are nnoted as follows;

An Appeal of 11 Century Ago to
Save Your Kags."
Paper was so scarce when the American
army entered Philadelphia upon tbeevao
nation of the British troops that there wnH
n want of paper fitted for t he construction
of cartridges, it was advertised for nnd
but a small quantity procured. An order
was then tuned di niandiug its Instant
production by nil the people in tbat city
who bad it.
Tills produced but little more, very prob
ably on account of its scarcity. A file of
soldiers was then ordered to make search
for it in every place when- liny was likely
to be found. Among Other places visited
In July was n garret in the house In which
Benjamin Franklin bad previously bad his
printing office.
Hero were discovered about 500 copies
of a sermon which the Kev. (iilhert Tenant
had written printed by Franklin npon
"Defensive Wur" to arouse the colonists
during the French troubles. The were nil
tuken and used ns cases for musket car
tridges und nt once sent to the urniory.
Most of them were used nt tbo battle of
Monmouth. The requisites In cartridge
paper wore, of course, thinness, strength,
pliability and inUamuinbility, and such
paper then was necessarily scarce.
In 1781 paper was so scarce that in New
York thu journal of the second sasHlon of
the assembly was not printed, tho printer
being unable to procure the ile- ssnry pa
per. Ilorner, in his "HibliotLrcu Amer
icana" 170 informs us that "at this
tiuio the people of North America manu
factured their own paper find in sufficient
quantities for home consumption, but the
price of labor was so high as to discourago
publishing beyond their own laws, pam
phlets and nt'wspnpcra. " Some two years
after this date David Hull, postmoster of
Troy, N. Y., publlsheri the following
homily under the bead " i'lense Save Your
lings;"
"The press contributes more to tho dl fTu
sion of knowledge und Information than
any other medium. Hags are tho primary
requisite in the manufacture of paper, nnd
without paper the newspapers of our coun
try, those cheap, useful and agreeable com
panions of the citizen nnd fanner, which in
n political and moral view are of the highest
national importance, must decline and be
extingnisbed. The paper mills of the state,
would the poor nnd the opulent, tho filmi
er and the mechanic, be persuaded into the
laudable frugality of saving rags, would
turn out ample suirpilcsof American paper
to nUswer all demandi.
"The people of Massachusetts and Con
necticut, with true American zeal, have
Introduced this exemplary saving Into tho
economy of their houses. Thu lutter, by
fair calculation, makes yearly a saving ot
rags to the actual amount of 160,000, The
ladies in several large towns display an
elegant workbag aa part of the furniture of
their parlors, In Which every rag lluit is
Used lu the paper mill Is carefully pre
served. Were this example initiated this
state would not be drained of its circulat
ing cash for paper and other manufactures
which American artists can furnish.
"The poor by the mete saving of rags
may be enabled to procure paper und books
for schools Bud family Use nnd more agree
able articles of dress and consumption.
The rich w ho regard the interest of their
country will direct their children or do
mestics to place n bag or box iu some con
venient place ns a deposit for rags, that
none may lie lust by being swept into the
street or lire, the sales of which ravings
will reward the attention of tho faithful
servant nnd encourage the prosperous en
terprise of prudence nnd frugality."
The industries of tho country grew so
fast that in 1 sio the number of paper mills
in t he United States was estimated at 188,
ofwbieb Rl were in lVnusylvnuin. St.

l?ee now the ocenn red!
Very glad to meet you
And talk on tbo captain's bed.
