Why America May Expect Good Times.

1. Our population was never so large as it i* now. __ 2. There was never, before so much land under cultivation in these United States, nor such a large aggregate ot produce raised. 3. There were never greater facilities for tranportation. 4. Our wheat, corn, provisions, butler, clieeHe, petroleum, cotton, silver and other products have been bringing cash at fair prices. 5. There is plenty of money to be had at a moderate interest, as <*oon as the owners oomdder it safe to lend. 6. The hard tiraeß have bt"i the best times we have had for revivals of religion and temperance. 7. The whole nation has been practicing economy. 8. The state of exchange with other countries is such as enable us to restore specie payment now if we choose. 9. Our political troubles are over, and an era of good feeling is returning to this* long divided and distracted country. All these reasons combined lead uh to anticipate the return "f good business generally, and a gradual vise in values of nearly all kinds of property. — '-N. Y. Witness.
