The demand for almost everything continues very light being restricted mainly to supplying immedi ate wants, as the policy of all business men seems to be to carry just as little stock as possible, s 6 that in case of shrinkage, in valne; the loss will not be• so heavy. Notwithstanding money is comparatively easy, there is an entire ab 7 Bence of anything like a specula:ive feeling, and many 'business men, in the absence of any other employment, have invested their money in United States bonds, feeling assured that it is the safe est and most profitable investment they can make at present.
