Ornice Mrrcantie AGES CY, Ad wd 316 Broadway, New York, Aen Se} TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS. ‘Mo entrance of the new year induces us to presert ‘wureelvesvagain before you, glancing back at the principal eeonts of the past year in the mercantile world, and of- fering afew suggestions dictated by the interest which we feel in your welfare. "Tho “nancial revuleion through which our whole ceun- sey has just passod—the disastrous effects of which will ‘de felt for along time to come—exceeded, in intensity, the apprehensions of the most timid and cautious in eer midst. Astringent money market was looked for. ‘here bad been over trading, too much competition ‘m business, too heavy expenses, too long and large evedite, and there was still quite land speculation: in fe West. Some failures were of course expecied. ‘Mee tendency to overdo, however, you will remember, had been very much restrained by causes which have eperated every year or so for the last six years. During thet time, drouth and failure of crops both at the South end West, and two or three serious financial revuisions, sontributed to put jobbing merchants on their guard against excessive over-trading, in which’we do not believe hey indulged to any serious extent. After the hard yoars referred to, great anxiety was felt in regard to the ereps for 1857. A kind Providence gave us an abundant harvest, on the basis of which a sound and healthy trade ‘was anticipated. Our importations {were heavier, it is fwne, than they ought to have been; but our jobbers stocked up moderately and were tooking for their usual $B trade when the contraction commenced, which was foRowed by panic, and the crash came, destroying all @emand for goods, depreciating stocks, deranging our in- MORNING EDITION—TUESDAY, JANUARY 12, 1858.

The syaiem, bow- ever, of endeavoring 1 maintain firme that are rotten throughout is radically wrong, for while it cannot remedy the evii, it has only the effect of rendering it worse by keeping it alive. The only true way is to let them stand or fall as they are sound or unstable, for al! attempts om the part of government to bolater them up must in the end prove utterly useless. Reviewing the present condition of the commercial community in England, the Tondon Times, which ridiculed our predictions two months since, says ‘the tru:h came upon us Jast October like a thunder-clap. Wo had bo idea but that we were full of property, but we then found that our fancied property, instead of consisting of merchandiee, gold, or foreign debis, consisted of nething Dut accommodation bills figuring in bank assets for their nominal amount, and in some instances not worth the stamp on which they were placed.” Here, sihes, w@ have a proof of tho rottenness of the system on which business was conducted, and which, as we bad predicted, Would eventuate in @ grand (nancial crash, On the Continent the effects of the revulsion were al- most as severely felt as in England, Ip Berlin, aa We ave stated, over fifty houses failed; in Stockholm twenty two failures occurred ; a dozen in Warsaw, and alarge num- ber of failures occured in Paris, Hamburg, Vienna, Auster- dam and other cities.
