Tho firzt week of the year is not one tn which ibe eigns of the coming business of the year 20 ordinarily bo judged. The dullnesa that is ske characteristic of the winter has been decp- ned by the interrupiions of the holidaya.

At sucha time very lew new transections aro consummated. The transfer that will attract most stteation among thicse of the present week is that of the fino five- #iory brown-stoue frout store on the northeast er of Madison and State strests. The pur- : was Marshall Field, and the price pud 100,000, The eala was made by A.J. Averell. Mr. Leiter, befoie his departare for Lcrope, offered $230,000 for the #ame property, bac l:s cfer was not accepted.

This purchase is one of au impostast geries that have been made in this ary within tho 1ast two years, almost all of them b res:cest Lusiness-men or capitalists. As we bave said, tlus is tho class that from this time torward will coustitute the heaviest and most tiopgrtant class. of customers in_this market, Tihe ** outzije cari'alist,” thoagh bis movements bavo always sttracted the most sttention, is not vea:ly so large & factor in our prosperity 23 tha home aricle. Cuor real-estate interests wiil pits mcre aod more under the control of tbe men who have made Chicago and know wiat its capabilities are, and can forecast its fu- tiare. Purchases at this time, like those made bin & ebort period bv Field, Leiter, King, Farwell, Kobn, Fisher, Hutchinson, and other leadiog merchzois aud Board-of-Trade men, have a most wholesowe influence on the real- es ate merket. Their business sagacity is proved Ur the success which Lias attended their private wcerests, end thowr investments in realiy at this tuno sre a precedent that could be fol- lowed with great proit. There is money to be made by buying Chicago real estats at this time, wid thosa who foilow the example which has Lsew set by the most successfal Lusinees-men in tt:c Wess will bave reasoa to congratulate them- suives.

A comparison with former years does not show this increase in such a bright light 8 it appears whon the number of vecant houses in April last and the gevoral depression in basi- ness are considered. la 1878, 6,654 permits wore, iesuod by the Building Inapectors; in 1374 it de- creased 50 from the preceding year, whils in 1875 theve bas been an increase to 6,733, Permissioa was agkod for the erection of 5222 pew build- iogs, 464 back buildings, aud 1,043 additions snd alterations to builzings.

The year opens with a decided falling off in the lize of borrowing. The demand is good, bat itismctof ths quslity favorably rogardsd by loan agents, who are inclined to scratinize names aad property with groater closeness than evar. Parments are being made promptly, and the pumber of releasos shows that the Chicago prop- erty-owners are devoting consideraole atizntion to the clearing off of insumbraacea.

CHICAGO BEAL ESTATE. 7o the Editor of T'he Chicago Tribune: Cmicago, Jan. 8.—Having been a good desl employed for somo months i valuing property in the West Division for loads and for trades, I can, I think, say & word that may interest in- tending purchassrs. Tho sale-boards are being gradually removed, and can now only be founa on vacant lots, aad not on nearly 8o many of theee as formerly, Tue indication is very decid~ od from this and other informstion that there is either o great deal less property for sale, or that a large amount has been withdrawn from the market. Prices for both improved ana vacaat property aro much firmer than thras mouths 230,—in fact, vervfirm,—and thers are bot few bouses to let. The process of moving from in- forior to good houses is hkely to increasa and become very acuive iu April and May this year, 80 that the houses now Lemng finished will no doubt all be wanted. As rezards loaus, it is no longer easy to obtain borrowers on satirfactory improved property at presaot rates, and if monsy-lenders do not lower their rates they will not find an oatles for much money duriag tho present year.—in the WestjDi- vision, at all events, Yours respectlully, VALUEN — Love’s Young Dream in o Railroad car. Xne Orieans Timen, They got =board the traia at a little town be- tween Cauton acd New Orleacs, and took a seat in the frout end of the car. He wzs a young man vith an independent *big enough to take care of myself" eait of an awr,and she was a young woman apperently big enough to " help him do i1t. He pseemed en- tirely to overlook the fact that there were any passengers on the train, and especially that several distinzuished St. Louis and Chica- o drummers were aboard. He was full to burst- ing with eomething to say, and the movementa of a race-horse 2re tams in comparison wita tha ‘way he proceaded to say it. During the firet half boor, with bead =and arms extended until thoy uearly touched the person of the fair damrel at e side, and utterly unconscious that a dozen pair of eyes were watching him, he poured forth sach a 00 of worda s must cer- taivly have overwhelwed any one unable to swim in the liquid language of love. Once daring the Lalf bour she seomed to rebuke him for some startling expression, aud he fell back discomfit- ©od to lus own end of the eeat. It was only fora moment. Long enough. howaver, for some rash individual to offer s Let that the maid woutd ‘win, which was at onca accepted by all parties within hearing. At the end of the first half hour ehe exbibited etrong symptoms of wiltiug, and Chucago bet ten to oze on the young man, whica was taken by St. Lous. Things were now mivg in- tensely iuteresting to all parties, and when at length the young man ventured to pass Lis arm aronod the maid, with po sizn of disapproval from her, sigpificant glances passed zmong the crowd, a bundred to ouo was offered with no takers, and all further bot- tiug was cot off by the maid paesing her arm around the young man, and dropping her head oa his bosom. Thev hsd gone farenough. The climax was reached, the goal gained,the dear objoct won, sud they xot off at the noxt sta- tion. They got out quietly aud lovingly, not knowing that the blessiugs of an entire car- load of passengers followed them. Amid the goueral enthusiasm which followed their exit, t. Louis, with a loog-drawn sigh, was beard to remark: It is aloug time since I have eeen anything of the kiud.” And Clucago did not forget himaclf as be rephed: *‘Pabaw! We bave them every day with us.” A Child’s Fancy. I knaw = dutlo girl who speat a winter with two mn.a<n ladies, and who bad beea prasentsd by one or them with s paper dotl, porgeously errayed. They namedit the Marquia, aond at ouce assigned to that nobleman the beart and baud of ter younger hostess, Ho was thence- furth alwais treated witn the respect dua to the heed of the bouse; & chair and plate wers as- sigued him at table, though, for ressons ot prac- tic'e couvevtenco, be usually eatin the piate. *+Good-moroing” must always be said to him., Tho bestof everything must be firstoffared to him, or eise Lizzie waa much hurt, and the family wera cbargod with discourteous neglect, Indeed, ahe always choee to taka the tons tlat bedid not receive quite the conaigeration to which lus rank and eervices entitled him; and 2, she would mive reproving lectures to his supposed se. ‘‘Ho does evorvthing for you," the cnild wonld say to this ladv; *he earns moner, and buya vou all you have; ho sioveis your path for you'—tlis being pethapaona enowy mornicg when that prociss was audible—* and yet vou do mot remember all his kindvess.” The whole assumed relationehup was treated as an absolute reality, aod the Lvely farco lasted, with uudiminishea epint, during the whole of a New England winter.—Col.

Tho local applications for loans ars not exhaustive. The packers from the begioning of the season have borrowed less than ususl; in fact, the evident t:ndency of their business is more and more to distribute itself uniformly through tho year, Mer- cantile needs aro ot pressing at this scason.
