Not for many years—not in the life- time of most men who read this paper—has there been so much grayve and deep apprehension; never has the future seemed so incalculable as at this time. In our own country there is universal commercial prostration and panic, and thousands of our poorest fellow citizens are turned out against the approaching winter without employment, and without the prospect of it. In France, the political caldron scethes and bubbles with uncertainty; Russia hangs, as usual, like a cloud, dark and silent, upon the horizon of Europe; while all of the energies, resources and influences of the British Empire are sorely tried, and are yet to be tried more sorely, in coping with the vast and deadly Indian insurrection, and with its disturbed relations in China. It is a solemn moment, and no ma: can feel an indifference (which, happily, no man pretends to feel) in the issue of event. Of our own troubles no man can see the end. They are, fortunately, as yet mainly commercial; and if we are only to lose money, and by painful poverty to be taught wisdom—the wisdom of honor, of faith, of sympathy and of charity—no man need seriously to despair. And yet the very haste to be rich, which is the occasion of this widespread calamity, has also tend- ed to destroy the moral forces with which we are to resist and subdue the calamity. Good friends—Ilet our conduct prove that the call comes to men who have large hearts, however narrowed their homes may be; who have open hands, however empty their purses. In time of peril we have nothing but man- kood, strong in its faith in God, to rely upon; and whoever shows him- self truly a God-fearing man, now by helping wherever and however he can, will be blessed and beloved as a great light in darkness. What you have just read above is reproduced from an editorial that appear- ed in Harper’s Weekly on October 10th, 1857! It preaches its own sermon in con- nection with the present economic situation. In July, 1857, conditions were nor- mal. September marked the beginning of the depression. Seventeen months later, in March, 1859, business was back to normal. History repeats itself. August, 1929, was normal. September saw the beginning of the present depression. Today, in spite of much that is bad, there is evidence that conditions are on the mend. Depres- sions have occurred in our history many times. Everything has looked black and seemed unending. But everything has been followed by recovery and prosperity.
