Anderson, of the Fifth Wisconsin Volunteers, who not only youches for the truth of tho Incidents of Han- cock's brutality uarrated by those gentlemen, ‘but adds othor specifications of the same char Acter which caine under his own observation, BUSINESS MEN IN FOLITICS, A_ hopeful sign for the election of Gen. Garfield isto be found in the rather exeep- tlonut Interest which the business men of the country seem to be taking inthe present campalgn. There has probably been no elec- tion since Gen. Grant was first chosen Presi- dent that has offered so many inducements to the commercial classes to exert their per- sonal Intuence, Four year’ ago there was widespread dissatisfaction with things as thoy were, and perplexing doubts as to what would be best for the country. ‘These condl- tlons persunded inany business men to yote the Democratic ticket who had uniformly voted with the Kepubticans since the begin- ning of the War. * Otherg, compromised with thelr own judgment and" consclenee by yot- ing the Greenback ticket, and thits indirectly contributed toa possible Democratic success without assuming an nctual responsibility forsuch aresult. There was avery general feeling that a change might be for the better, and this feeling naturally encouraged in- dHferenea and Jukewartmness . In the prosecution of the Republican eam- paign, ‘The present campaign, hows ever, offen on entirely different con- ditton of things. Business aetlvity and ma- terlal prosperity have supplanted the depres- sion and stagnation of four years ago. The substantial aud well-to-lo classes, consisting of capltalists, merchants, manufacturers, producers, and mechantes, are now anxious to ninintain the existing good times and fa- vorable prospects, ‘There fs 9 gencral con- vietion that the eleetlon of Garfield and the continuation of the same conservative polley that has controtled the adnutnistratton of the Governinent during the past few years will be the best means. fo assure such 9 result, There are evidenceson altsides thaga change of parties at thistime will produce sueli a revo- lution In the Civll Service and such experl- nents In Iegisintion ns shall almost inevitably work Injury to the bustness Interests of the country. itis this sentlment, more than all other Influences fn the present campalgn, which augurs Hepublican success In New York, and, with New York, In the Nation, During tho past fow days a number of Iet- ters haye appeared tn print from representa- tlve business men who have not been acting with tha Republican party during the pust elght years, but have returned to itat this thie inthe belief that its agency alone can axsure politieal peace and material prosperity during the ensuing “Presidential pertod. Some of thesv letters are worth quoting, be cause It fs almost certain that they will be found to express tho oplutons of wing out of every ten business men who read them, and such response will serve to strengthen tho convletlons that are entertained. One letter from a merchant in New York to Mr, Fred P, Rush, of Indlannpolls, ineloged a check of $50 to be handed to the Republican Campaign Committee of that State, and in It the writer proceeded to give Is reasons for this un- solicited assistance to the Republican cause, He had neted with the Republican party during the War, was a Liberal at its close and voted fur Gréeley, and algo supported ‘Tilden four yearsago on account of that gen- tlemiun’s fight upon Tammany and hls eco- nomlcal adinfulstration of the State Goyern- ment.

THE IMPORTATION OF GOLD. The largo shipments of gold to this country are creating considerablespecuiation fs to tho results that may follow them. In 1876 the foreign trade of the United States re- versed its proportlons of exports and, im- ports of merchandise. So soon us tha balance of trade was in favor of thls coun- try Great Britain and other European States made good thelr deficiency by shipping hither American securities. ‘his was rondered moreteasy beenuso of thecontinucd calls made by the Treasury for ihe 6-20 bonds,—called in to be funded in tho new Is- sues of lower-interest bonds, In ono way or the other, up to the spring of 1870, tho erent bulk of Amerienn securities, including rallrond and other bonds, found thelr way back to the United States. Up to that thne it had always been con- sidered necessary, In order to float a National bond, that an agency shoutd be opened in London for Its sale, and wo bo- Heve that during the ten or mors years pre- ceding 1890 the ‘Treasury hada force of clerks in London to push American bonds on the market, Tho experience of the Government with the 4 per cent bonds showed how great ly matters had changed. Over seven hun- dred millions of 4 percent bonds wore put on the market at home and at par, and ‘this, too, In the face of such an fimmenso sitm of other American securities which was re- turned to this country from Europe, A year ugo Secretary Sherman stated that he did not bellove that there were one hundred mill- fonsof Amorican bonds thon held outside of this country. In tho meantime, the supply of rund -bonds fulling, tho shipments of gold have continued. Along in July, 1879, thore occurred that most Irrational of all proceedings, the great Increase in tho prices of Iron and stuel, anc, as R consequence, the increase In prices of various other commodities. For atime there was n storm of supposed “ prosperity,” which Insted six months, when prices reeeded to their previous rates. During this time, however, thers had been Smported nearly one hundred:and fifty ‘millions of dollars worth of forelgn gootls In excess of what would aye been Imported had no such in- flation of prices taken place, ‘The country has had slnee then to pay for these goods, and by so doing has reduced tho balance of trade duo for the year ending In July Inst. It is possihle that all these goods have been paid for, and now the shipments of gold have been resumed tn order to meet the excess due this country on the trade tn ordl- nary merchandise, The transfer of the Amer- Jean bonds from tho hands of holders In Europe to persons in this country has re- duced also tho large sum annually sent abroni to pay futorest, Mow long will this flow of gold continuo? ‘There ara two causes stated why this ship- ment of gold canrot continue, and these are: {1).That our exports of breadstuifs must decline because of a more Iberal production in Europe, thereby reducing our sntes both in quantity and fn value; and (2) that this country, belng in a high state of prosperity, will Import. more largely than yer of costly merchandise in the way of dress guods,. jewelry, and versonal and household adornments, The first renson glyon will hardly bo sus- tained by: facts, Europeans have experl- enced the bonefils of cheap brend and meat from this country, and Europeans will not forego these comforts so long ns they may bo had, ‘The larger crops in forelgn countries will not reduce substantially tho demand for Amerlesn breadstuffs, They may have the effect of reducing tho price of both Aimor- ican and foreign breadstuils to consumers, but tho immediate and natural result of the decrease in cost.will ndd largely to tho de- mandforconsumption. ‘Tho man accustomed to one lonf of bread per day will, If he can buy two loaves for the priee ho has hereto- fore paid for one, buy the second, Food Is aomething which appeals to cyery man's purse, [t becomes a necessity, and noth- Ing short of an hnpossibility to obtain it will Induce any man to deny himself tho lnrgest use of it, It is safe to assume, then, if tho prico of brendstuffs In Europe shall decline 2) per cent be. enuso of the Increase In tho supply, that the demand for consumption will ine crease even more than 35 per cent because of tho cheapness of the article, This country at beat only exports Its surplus; that surplus will go forward and be soll, no matter what may bo the extent of the foreign crops; and the prices abroad, and the total proceeds of what we linve to sell, will both depend on the quantity of that surplus, American Dreadstuils will have to bo bought, In any case, ta supply the European deticteney; and tho prices of the American grain abroad wilt be determined by the fact whether tho Amer- fean surplus will be In excess or be less chan fa needed for, that deflelency, Abundant as our harvests may be, there ts no probability that Eyrope will be so overstecked with bread that there will not bo a customer fount there for every pound that may bo obtained from America, ‘ There is not much likelihood. of any so tious Incrense of our liportations of ordl- nary merchandise, though there 19a proba Dility that people who have grown rich dure tog tho last slx yours will Indulge their tastes and gratify their yanity by purchasing Mbver- ally of forcign-minde articles of householit and personal adornment.
