There is no city in tbe country, we are very sure, where a more unselfish interest is taken in matters of public consequence, and every effort made to bring out for popular approval and admiration any notable enterprise is uniform ly crowned with success. During the war there were no more noble women than those in this city who devoted tbemseivce early and late to tbe cause of the soldier and the coun try and aside from their ouiet and etlicient work in tueir own bouies and by tlie organised efforts ol tbe aid society, they arou-l tbe community at times to the liberal snptiort of some grand entertalument which gave sub stantial encouragement to the great work In which they were engaged. 1-eb-r these Indies, with others who have caught tbe inspiration of their examine, conducted a Latlv lVahihg ton tea; party, which was confessedly unsur passed in ail tue essential sdeinent of success.

Persons wbo had att snded similar entertain ments in lew York, Washington and other cities freely admitted that ilarttora. In the value ol the articles shown and toe eit-gsnce ot the entire alfair as to decoraUons and dress, had fairly won the lead. And now the lad.es wbo bave so frequently displayed their enter prise, and bave educe test themselves in work of a public nature so thoroughly and well that failure as impossible, bave enlLsted in aunt to be the greatest enterprise of the century tne centennial ceieoratton of it is known that there is to be a woman i building at Philadelphia, the furnishing of wuli-b will depend oiwn tbe active efforts of tbe women ol tbe Couutrv. 1 he nrst move bare ia tbe Loan l.xbibitiou, wluch has been in preparation for tvo or three weeAs peat, and which is located in the spaeuaia, well lighted and convenient rooms of tue new Phusmx bank building, the officers of the lank with commendable gouerosity. permitting tbe laiiee to occupy these spiertdid apartment free ofexpeuse.

The whole collection is attractively arranged, and is so large that repeated visits will be necessary to get a fair apomciation of the value of tbe display, which fyin all respects a notable one.

In the first Jay Gould was reported to bave sold a Urge amount of "puts" at 40, and tbe different parties purchasing went long against them, expecting a rise, but when It broke and turned on 40, showing that Jay Gould was not sus talnlng the price, the same parties, seeing some gotai? ror it, pitched over their stock to get tt back lower. This with reports that the Panama railroad director bad given thirty days notice to cbe Pacific Malt of a cancellation of their contracts, carried the prioe down to 37, since there has bean a rally to Union Pacific broke from 66 to and the rest ot the list declined slightly in sympathy.

Friday afternoon a tarn ooinmenoed and there was an ad vance all along the line. PaoiHo Hail went to 89, a rain of l4 per and Union Pacific to 65, aa advance of 3 per sent. the last being predicated on favorable reports in regard to the government suit before the supreme eourt at Washington. It is cot expected, however, that any decision will be arrived at for some time. The market to-day generally has shown a strong front, but at the close went eff a little, causel by realizations of holders who did not wish to carry their holdings over Sunday.

So there comes about a universal cramping. The way out is to bur.

Buy whatever you need, so you do not have to buy on credit, and as one buys another buys, and where two or buyers are gathered together there trade takes life. These are no times to hoard money In. Ordinarily a dollar hid away is useless; now It Is doubly so, for dollars already Invested are suffering because people are afraid to pay out the dollars they have -and so to mnto labor active and ln.estmsnt pro- fllabla. The fright on the inflation question has Lad much to do with this backwardness as people were afraid to do anything but wait, in view of the involved uncertainties, but now that that fear is set aside, if not dismissed, there ought to be a greater readiness to go in sod buy what one wants and can aiTord to get. This is the wuy to avoid such terrible pinch ing as that of last winter and as the coming; winter will also develop unless people consume more.

he man who wants something and is able to buy it but refrains because somebody else cau't buy it, Is doing precisely the wrong thing, and the "reckless" and "spendthrift" clans who keep ther money moving are the benefactors to-dny.

There was a little excitement and consider able fun at the stock exchange on Saturday over the sale of Connecticut Western railroad bonds. Mr. John A.

Butler to take the bonds. It is said that there have beau thr heavy ope. rators in these bon is, and that the large amount on the market is accounted for by the fact that two of these parties have unloaded, leaving the third to carry the burden alone.

At this tune a "bull" stejis into the market aud buys bonanza largely, thus forcing price up and also compelling tie shorts to rover. The large purchases sent the prloe up every day, some days a rise of dire, per cent, above the previous day's transactions: still tbd bull cried for more, maiuug bids for larue blocks, offering to b.t they would go to and ho lad niada 'em sick" (tue shorts) Is no doubt but that sms of the shorts wore "twisted."

It I larolwble, unless congress Interferes vilbttie policy of Secretary Bristow, that Ivjr small chanR will come Into general cir ulntion before long. To this end the mints lre kopt busy, aud as the treasury department lias ceased to print new scrip, the tractionat rurrvney Is being constantly contracted. It is intimated that a contraction of one fifth has taken plnce during tho past twelve months, swmply by not replacing that which has become defaced or worn out. The American Public Health association will bold its annual meeting at Baltimore th -week, beginning Tuesday and cloning Friday ni.bL The programme include about fifty pupers by leading scientist of the country and will be an exceedingly Interesting ana srtmion. All sorts of health topic's are included in the subjects for discussion and ventral diffusion of sense ought to result.

The rnuntry certuinly needs it. There la a prospect tiiat the next meeting may be held here in Hartford, where it would be sure of a generous welcome. The "balance of trade" against England for the past Ave vears has amounted to tl.iO.Otx), tKl, and yot England tins not been growing verv uoor during these same years. It is a matter worth the consideration of those econ-1 omists who preach largely from the "balance I t)t trude" text regarding our national nuances. The individual who tukes in more than he pays out Is on tlie way to prosperity, but it is argued that the people who take to more than they imv cut are In a distressing plight.

There hi alight Inconsistency that needs rectifying in audi logic. The sensational report of the indictment of Orville Grant and General Babeock was sent from rit. Louis by sjieciul correspondent of the Cincinnati nufrer, and this is as yet the only authority for it. It lielieved to bean attumpt at "bluff" by the whisky thieves whom Hecretary Bristow. with the cordial approbation of the President, Is pushing so effectu'dly to the wall.

The report will not be credited. I But if iu these days of unexpected develtp-1 m-uts it should prove to be true, we do not lie-1 Jiefe that the President would interfere to I i h. -niitv Ha I 1. i an OTwunaw uu, t- ,..,1.1 rt. rnul I friendship or relationship to stand in the way of iuitic The vigor with which the whisky ring hus been prosecuted, hitherto, is a gnar Buty that there will be no temporizing at this latediy.

Secretory Bristow stands preiimi- sunt as the champion ring smasher, auu bis ucce is largely due to tb support given him bv tlie President. The Women's Loan Exhibition, which is to be formally opened by a reception in the Phoenix bank, building this evening, is a meri torious affair, both aa to the extent aud rich ness of the display of works of art and curious ami the object for which it is designed The hnlics of Hartford who have inaugurated the enterprise, have received the cord'ul co operation oC many citizens who weie in a way to make valuable contributions, and they have succeeded in furnishing an exhibition which cannot fail to receive public couimcudttion. The several aartmeuts allotted to the display, gild freely aligned to the ladies without cost by the officers of the PlKBnix baiik, have been arranged so thut visitors will at admire the good tante displaved. The collection of works of art Is very extensive and xc.clingly valuable, while the department of relics is filled with hundreds of curknit'es which cannot fail to excite speciul interest. We need hardly urge the people, of Hartford and vicinity to give this exhibition their most generous support, and thus encourage the euterurising and patriotic ladies who have jgiven their time without stmt to make it a auccess for the sake of the great centennial xhibition next year.

O-ie of the most remarkable proportions of all the various Centennial suggestions is made by a correMpondeut of the Philadelphia iVrsn, who advlnes having Washington and Lincoln preteul at the celebration. He is not a Spirit ualist, aud does not advocate simply the employment of some skillful medium at a fair salary to draw them out there, but bo is for a bodily presence. His Idea is to have the gravei of thc two great national heroes opened aud have their bodies bronght to the Centen nial ground and exhibited there. The writer says: "What a grsut pleasure and satisfaction it Wuuld lie U) every one to behold the real, genuine, honest face of the immortal Washing. ton!" and thinks hundreds of thousands of people would go there to sue him who otherwise would not go to the exhibition.

To most people, however, such a proceeding would be eminently shocking, and the Philadelphia Fr(K, in alluding to the letter, gives it the only turn that would be tolerable, in offering projiosition for a national cemetery of great nifiu sort of American Westminster Ablwy and offering Falrmount park for the place. For the prewut the American people are not likely to favor even this Idea, but will prefer to have each locality retain undiaturlied the sacred dust thet bekings to it. I bM Lh lil t.ll.tll UK. The correspondents of Tub Coi Rart who have recently discussed the subject of juvenile literatUie tiooks that will interest and benefit the boys aud girls have touched on a theme which ought to Interest all parents and if Htructors. Parents, as a rule, are too negligent in g.ving direction to the budding ta-Htes of their children.

It is as easy to cultivate a tame for gontf writers as for the trashy and sensational, if thos-e trho are responsible will but take the trouble. Thre la, for instance, as wide a difference between that charming peri odteal, M. Au-Aolui, aud the abominable Jluy and HrW Wrrhly as tiotween Robinson Crusoe and IHek Turpln, and yet there are prububly Jlf of the WtMy in circulation to one of the A icWus. 'Die latter is not ouly entertain ing, natural, and true to life, but written in choice lunguage and Is cultured and refining iu its influence, lbe other is trashy, senw tioual, dUirtcd, untrue to life, vulgar iu tone uud pernicious. Yet how many parents are there that have taken the trouble to in Vest i gate the two works, approve the one and to condemn the other as it should be condemned: The world is full of good book for the chil dren, and the children only need to be started ariitht to lose relish for the trashy and demoralizing style of liter aiui-e.

It is a duty not only to commend tlie tiue aud good, but to discountenance in every way the bad aud false. Teach. cr and parent have a duty to perform in this matter, which is one of the most important parts of a child's education. The appetite, wlucu, if left uiikUiiled, may resort to the iliiiie novels, or the liny and UtrU fVrtkly, should be nven a taite of the belter things. The stones of the best writers, Scott, Pickens, Thackeray, Aldricb, Arnold, Must Alcott, and the boet of other improving as well as enter taming writers, should be furnished them, it- iod judgiueul being exercised in making selection adapted to the taat.es and intelinctual capacity of the reader.

In the properly regulated household tb young man's happiest recol ject ions in after years are of the evenings at ho. vie when a boy, with tlie comjianionship of good L'H5 and the family disrunsuins over the variou cuVBCters. and the delightful feeling of sympathy la tie tastes and aspirations. Much of the crime of the day is dinctiy traceable to the bad books aud Papon whico are so easily t.bUind Jad. on the other hau many an honorable and usvful life ba been moukied and directed aright Lj the judicious choice of improving books.

A greet! accountability In this matter rest upon the par-entt, while upon thoae who publish and sell for gain the demoralizing style of literature which la so prevalent, there rest a fearful weight ol responsibility, which ought to produce remorst and penitence. There is do viler character In the world than the eomiptnr of ihe young. ui asi1 'o tr. Buy whaiiever you can afford to buy and you will ilo very niUv'h more to keep men at work and keep buin! In Kti than you can by putting your savings iutrt old bods, or old stockings, or into bank Taulte, or slmj.le un produ- uve speculation. 5obodr is going to be made very rich by having everybody deny biniself the half of hie wsnts; for occupation comve by supplying the wants of other people.
