Merchants aro doubtless pay- Ing for their spring purchases, or buying for cash for tho fall trade, : COMMENOIAL ORISES. Thero {8 an old-time maxim that ‘‘History re- poats iteolf.” Without inquiring as to tho truth of the senlimont, or attompting to give oxamples to confirm or to disprove it, wo propose to iuquire whothor the supposed Iaw can be applied to commercinl crisos. Of courso oach roador should apply tho tost of his own knowledge and ‘exporionco to the subjoct, and act upon the sug- gostions horoln submittod nccording to his bost judgmont, Tho Listory of this country scoms to have do- voloped o law that a goneral commorcial orash niay bo expacted every twenty yoars, Tho fimt oocurred in 1707, the soccond in 1817, the third In 1837,—many of our readora can romomber that, w-nnd tho fourth in 1857, whoso lossons Yowr of our business men have forgotton. Tho causos which produced the first two can bofound in the condition of tha country at tho timo thoy occurred. Aftor tho close of tho !hnrol\xtiom'wil War, and up to tho time of the adoption of the Fedoral Constitution, the busi- noss affairs of tho nation wore atsoa. Each Hiato adopted trade regulations with its noigh- Lors or with foroign natlous according (to ite ©own notions of what duty ot intorest might dic- tato, Thore was no conildence among tho buai~ 2086 mon of tho poriod, Tho value of tho our- ronoy issued by the States and by tho old Conti- mental Congress was virtually regulated by tho ypaok, and not by the denominations printed on the faco of tho bills, and confusion worse con~ founded reigned ovorywhers, Thia atate of things could not bo ondured. tion of the United Btates, adopted in 1787, in which it was provided that Con- gross showld havo power ‘‘to rogulate commoerce with_forelga nations and among the soveral Btates,” gradually inspired contldence. Commorcial troatios were mado with foroign na- tions; all restrictions upon traflle betweon tho Btatos wero abolished, and the country bogan to rospor. As time rollod on and that prospority incroased, it turned tho heads of the old Royo- lutionary patriots. Thoy bogau to spooulats prices of everything approciatod ; importations of foreign luxuries wero mado far beyond the valuo of theoxports thecountry could make to pay for them ; nnd, at tho cud of ton years, the Whole business public was forced into liquida- tion, Thero was no monoy to bo had ; no coufl- denco nuy\vhnm‘ and very little busiuess could Do done t1ll tho * hard pan” bad boon roachod. After tho close of the speculative poriod, aud the people found themselves stauding upon the common plane of poyerty, mnocessity forced oll to work aund to practice economy. Wealth ugain began glowly to nccmnulnto, and the domaud for our products was stimulated by the wars of Napoloon, Eug- land was hard pressed ; tho old hatreds of tho Tovolution bad not passed nwny. A quarrel aroso, and the War of 1812-'15 was the result. During the war the country was prosporous to n uufinnnhy oxtent, and strnggled along after it closed till 1817, when a terriblo financial orash again iovolved the country iu utter and gouoral ruin, As before, mioney soomed to Bavo entirely forssken tho channels of trade. What littlo thore was in the country was hid away in_old stooking-logs, 10 reappenr only when confidenco was in somo measuro restorod. Gradually liquidation did its work. Caroful, porsovering toil snd closo economy began to develop the rezources of the comntry oud prospority o bloss tho laud. By 1826, DeWitt Clinton and his far- soolug compeers had comploted the Lrio Cawal ; the vast teemin, West was opened to tho outerprise of the coun- try, sud for the noxt ten yoars tho progress in fiio population and tho woalth of tho nution waa truly amozing, ‘Tho rapid risein the nominal valis of lauds everywhere, and especially at the West, enticed thousands oven of the most pru- dent busincss mon to invest in them. _ Wild-cat bauks almost without number were establishod in Michigon and almost ovorywhers west of the ‘Alioghouy Mountuine. Lvorybody's pookets were full of bunk-bills ; aud 8o genorally did poople talio to spuculation to get rich, instond of attonding to tho duties of the farm and the workehop, that potatoss woro {mported into New York from Treland in 1836, and wheat from tho Baltic, Importations of u?lmru, 6%-gaws, and foroign luxurios rose to frighful figures. Of course this state of things could not last, nnd tho crash of 1637-'8 was tho bitter remedy for the moral and commercial inganity that had preceded ib, The first two financial crises, as we have seen, —viz.: that of 1797 sud of 1817,~were due to the wars and the condition of the country that re- eulted from thoso ware. ‘Che period of twonty yoors Liayving once been established, it is propor_ to inquire, right oro, what woro flio_causos that produced the third and the fourth, the conditions that may pro- duco othors nt the racurreuce of every fwonty cars, and the menns by which the country may ope to avoid them. uring the time botween one “Anancial crash and nuother, it may Do statod gonerally that nearly tho entiro property of the nation changoes Lands. The woalthy men die, snd with them tho economy, industrfl, and prudent foresight by the oxercise of which their estates were acou- mulated. Their sons and sons-in-law get pos- session of their property, Commenciug whero thoir fathers left off, they launch out into foolish extravagance, The promoters of wild speculative schomes flatter ‘them by parading thisic names as tho patrous of this and that great enterprito, and visions of untold yoalih lead thom to plunge into dobt without limit. Tho fact is, thoy did not earn tho wonlth in which they rovel, and they don't know Low to take caro of it. Not to divido the business publio too closely, wo montion but one other clasa who, if wo mistake not, contribute largely to those con- ditions which aro sure to produce & orash in the finrncinl affairs of the country. Theao are tho men who commence life ontirely poor immo- diately nftor & financial rovolution. ~Choy begin to accumulate by the most caroful economy and the most onergetio toil. That first thousand dollars, of which all have hoard, require the sweat of moany a bhard day's work to earn. DBut they earn it. 'Che ring of thoir hammers late and oarly—no eight-hour daya for thom—has been hoard by the merchant and capi- tolist. They descrve and bave good credit. Business and profits steadily inorease, and at tho out, suy, of filteen yonrs from the last crash, they aro worth ton, twonty, perchance, heroand there one, o hundred thousaud doliars, or more. Bpeculntion gets in, and many around them are ‘becoming millionaires. Why should they not ehare intho golden harvest?
