GAZRTTR, WEDNESDAY, JULY 7 of the Paris man in the description of Mr.Beecher\u2019s appearance.We are told, « Ha looked intenscly patriarchal with his long white hair and black coat, his turned down collar and his upturned eyes.\u2018Isn\u2019t he beautiful?\u2019 murmured à lady near me, fanning herself into a delicious fever.He certainly was extremely decorative.A trifle more unctuous, perhaps, than the preachers one is accustomed to in this cut and dried city, but decorative.\u201d\u201d Everyone has heard of a decorative upholsterer, but a decorat:ve patriarch is new.The statement that his collar went one way and his eyes the other suggests a kind of decorative squint, but if he looked 20 beautiful that a lady fanned herself into a delicious fever looking at him, it must have been all right.But we advise this lady to ba careful Thesermon was \u201cabout love taken from Corinthians,\u2019 wkich is rather & bald statement, but it appears that Mr.Beecher went pretty deeply into the subject, eince he dealt with the ** pale moonshine sentimentality, and the mush of love,\u201d and every now and again \u201c fired off a jake,\u201d which \u201c at first rather alarmed the congregation.\u201d Itappears that one of these j>xes turned on the familiar mosquito, aud it is quite probable that Bescher \u201ctired off\u201d a snake atory,no doubt causing alarm particularly to the lady fanning herself into a delicious fever, Not one story only, but a number, for\u201c every five minutes the church was convulsed with laughter.\u201d Gradually, we are told he dropped banter and returned to love.The correspondent seems to regard Mr.Beecher as an eminent comedian for he begins by setting him ia a mise en scene and ends up by talking about bis broad comedy\u201d and \u2018success as a humorist.\u201d\u201d To add to the attraction a young lady from New York sang/Gounod\u2019s \u2018\u201c À king of love my shepherd is\u201d-that\u2019s tte kind of shepherd hers is-and Dr.Parker did the \u201c interlocutory rhetoric\u201d whatever that may be.We are not at all surprised to find that the congregation were a little shocked at first, for it must all have been something new in the City Temple, but no doubt Mr.Beecher will grow on them, rt THE BUSINESS OUTLOJK.Thecircular issued from Dun, Wiman\u2019s Mercantile Agency on the first of the month is very hopeful in itstone.It says that the marked decrease in the number of failures, particularly in view of the recent labor troubler, indicates that the trade of the country is in a state of surprising prosperity.For the first half year the profils realized in many sections of the country have been slight, and that notwithstanding an extremely favorable opening of the season the returns ars not at all satisfactory.But for the remainder of the year the prospects are good.The promise of an abundant harvest is well assured and confidence is almost universally 1estored.The business of large corporations is on a surer footing than this time last year, as is shown by the improvement in the railway situation, and this ensures a larger and steadier income to the large class who hold this kind of security.The rates of four and five per cent.for money are now almost as universal as six and seven were five years ago, and this is likely to lead to the extension of undertakings impossible in countries with more restricted resources The circular regrets that high taxation has been allowed to remain in the United States aud laments ' the want of a bankruptcy law.The conclusions that are arrived at are based on the reports of trustworthy agents at all the business centres among which are the several Canadian capitals.The statements from these places are as follows : MONTREAL, The first half of the \u201cyear has been significant in two things, a very early season with continued good crop growing weather, failures since same period in 1884.Some drawbacks io tbe commercial situation have been encoun«ered, euch as the extraordinarily low quoted values of general merchandisz, and the consequent reduced volume of business, thea the fact that the expense ratio of such business cannot be materially reduced.It is estimated thata chmisulion of some 30 per \u20ac nt.iu general turnovers bas resulted since three years ago, end traders bave felt it imperative that they shouli push to the utlermost to secure gains worthy of tbe seacon\u2019s toil, Tue splendid manage nents of our banks in the face of reduced discounting business, and, In scme cases, of lessened circu'a- tion, has enabled them to pay very eati:- factory dividende, but all managers fully recogn:ze the fact thet to the avoidance of bad debs are these £011 results largely attributable.Our lumb-r interest opened with an advance upon last year's prices, und if Albaoy and otier distributing centres do not becowe overstocked, the interest should prove à good one.Reports from a wajsrity of our countiez quote the hay crop 4 wost provusiog one.This being a chief factor in our agricultural wealth, it 18 likely 10 uaderlie and sustain the general couuition of many sec:igas.Root crop: look well, and the manufacture of butter 18 fast mergiog into the creamery grade.In this prices sre very low, and wiil continue s0, itis thought, for the first year but ihe standard will have been elevated, and returns will finally come back in great: measure.Io is felt that tue situstion generally is one of an encouraging character.It but remains fur our merchauts to be content with moderate returns.TORONTO, There has been Bo improvement in general trade during the past season ; values in many lines have depreciated, snd particularly in goods of woollen manufacture, which are at a very low point ; the indications, however, are that the recent rise in wool will cause an advance in the near future.Ia some Jines the volume of trade has exceeded that of former years, but strong corapetition has induced auch lcw prices that, with the liberal lists of failures, profits have been cousiderably shortened.Coilections have only been fair, and A good many complain of their having fallen below the mark.The good crop of last year was neutralized by low prices, and coz- siderable gain 18 yet in firet hands through the country.Crop prospects at present are nct flattering ; fall wheat is not likely and a remarkable diminution in wholesale\u2019 to be more than half a crop, while spring grain is generally looking weil.The Jum- ber trade has been good locally, but very linle hss been done in exporting, the demand from American Jumber centres having fallen ¢ff greatly.So far business has not suffered to any appreciable extent by the labor troubles that have afflicted our neighbors, Stocks are not heavy, as a rule, among either wholesale or retail dealers, and a general feeling of conservatism scems to pervade the business community.Money is plentiful among the banks, and on gilt-edged col- laterals can be borrowed at low rates, business discounts ranging as usual.The future, while not devoid of hope, calls for careful and prudent management, a close scrutiny of credits, and a curtailing of ex- penees wherever practicable.LONDON.Trade in this section has not been affected by anything of a serious nature, such a8 labor strikes or any calamities of weather.The crops were very fair last sea-on, and indications at present promise a like result for thie, but prices being eo low have caused less money to be circulated, aud merchants have consequently found collections slower than usual.The trade, however, on the whole, has been fairly maintaived and there has been Do great cause fer cownplaint.Stccks held at present, by both whoiesale and retail merchants, are not excessive, owing to a cautiou- and economic policy for the past two or three years, and there seems no iendency to depart therefrom and bui for increased trade.On the whole, We see no cause for apprehension in this part of the Province, but expect a fairly remunerative trade in all branches.ST.JOHN, N.B.We cannot anticipate any increase in volume of our general business over that of lust year, and we bave no reason to sujp- pose that in legitimate trade there will be any great profit.Shipping and lumber still bring in very lite, and there is no appearance of any early increase in profits from these sources.Such fisheries as we have promi:e fairly well, and crop prospects sre encouraging.Shipbuilding &p- pears to be almost a thing of the past.H.wever, taken altogether, merchants are in a pretty healthy state, payments generally being met satizfactorily, failures being few and among the smaller class.From :1l the information we have, we believe that the position of our affairs will compare favorably with neighboring Provinces and States, HALIFAX, N.8, Little change is observable in the condition of trade here as compared wita a year ago.A sieady, quiet trade is being done in merchandise, but no line shows activity, and in all classes of goods profits are down 80 low that it is almost impie- sible for merchants to gain in capital.S :ipping business shows no improvement, and our large interest in wooden vessels is giving very little return, Lumber exporis will probebly bs slightly larger than last year, with eome improvement in results to producers generally, but the industry is far from prosperons.\u2018Lue output of cecal is expeced to be about equal to that of 1835\u20141,300,000\u2014a falling off is apparent at some collieries, but this is likely to be offset by an increased activity at others.The fisheries\u2014our largest int:rest since the decline of thipbuilding continue productive, but no profitable market is available; a complete demoralization ia prices prevaile, with very unsatisfactory results to suppliers and dealers.It is rather early to foreca-t with much certainty crop prospects for this section, but so far they promise well, particularly the fruit crop.Oar farmers and fruit-growers er joy greater immuuity from the prevailing depression than any other class, and an increasing interest in agriculture i3 being deveioped.Some of our country towns, particularly those in agricultural districts, shew a steady growth, and enjoy a fair measure of prosperity, While the review of our leading interests given above shows few eu- couraging features, there is on the whole rather a wore hopeful tone among business man, perhaps trom the feeling that a change must come 8005, and that any change must be for the better.One gra::- fying feature of the situation 1s the abseace of losses by bad debte, failures being few and unitaportant.WINNIPEG, MAN, From extensive inquiry and careful ot- servation, we are led to tne coocinsion that at present the business outlook for this year is encouraging.Our wholesale men report sales considerably in exsess of this date law with form irpse 0! l-fisher , estab- LWTENC

WEDNESDAY JULY 7 LICENSED VICTUALLERS AT PLAY.They Bold a Grand Picnic on 8%, Helen's Island.A Most Enjoy: ble Afternoon of Sport and Frolio, Full Report of the Sports and Games, The Licensed Victuallers Association of Montreal held their grand annual picnic and games on St.Helen's Island yesterday, and like all former events gotten up by this association, was a decided success.The weather in the morning looked threatening and at noon several showers of rain fell, but in the afternoon the sky cleared and the remainder of the day was beautiful.In the city the heat was oppressive, but amid the beautiful groves of the Island Park, a refreshing breeze was blowing aud the merrymakers did not seem to mind the heat in the least.During the entire afiernoon, the steamera Berthier and Cu'tivateur were thronged with pleas ure seekers on each trip, and during the day there could not have been many less than five thousand of our citizens who visited the Island.Among the prominent
