BUSINESS.
fUE WENERA.L 0U f-LOOK AS REPORTED BY DUN'S MER04NT1LEAUEXCY.
Statistics of the Trade of the Ceuutry.
The yearly circular issued by Dun & Co., commercial agency, has made its appearance. Among other statistical iu formation is a table giving a comparative statement of the number of failures and amounts for several years past. It says: "Statistics show a much larger increase in the number of failures than during any twelve months since 1870, while the average amount of liabilities for each failure is less than at any similar previous period in that time."
In comparing the number of failures in Indiana, with thos9 of other States, for the past five years we find the following:
No. Failures, 1871 CO. 1872. i" 187 3 134. 187 4 167. 1875 332.
Liabilities. 860,-000 991,000 2.266,000 2,397,000 4,804,052
The circular also adds a table showing the.time of year at which most failures occur, in dividing the year into four quarters, and taking the State of Indiana we. find the following: 1875. No. Failures. First Quarter 80. Second 05. Third' 91. Foiirth 96.
Liabilities. ...$1,615,349 .... 361,534 .... 1,667,129 .... 1,140,000
Total for year 332 $4,804,052 No general expression will entirely photograph the condition of business at the close of tbe year. While depression, lack of profit, and want of confidence prevails in many quarters, especially in the Eastern section of the country, there has been considerable activity, a large absorption of goods, and increased purchasing and debt-pay-ing power in the West and portions of the South. The amount of money realized by producers since the 1st of August in all the latter sections, for. cotton, tobacco, grain and pork, etc., is estimated at over $250,000.000—a sum f-quivalent to two-thirds of tbe entire issues of all the National Banks of the country. The circulation- of so large an amount of currency in these locations has rendered fairly active the jobbing and retail trades in many quarters. Stocks of morchaddise have been moved, and manufacturers of staples have been kept partially, if net lully employed. This favorable feature in the general retrospect is undoubted *nd is likely to be still further aug mented, for, though the deliveries of •gricultural products have been liberal, "»t thnrn remains fully two-thirds of the wealth garnared da ring the sua tuer and autumn.
Aside, however, from the sectional improvement thus noticed, the. general results of the year have not been satisfactory. The number of those actively engaged in trade who have added to their surplus, are exceptionally few those who have held th'eir own are .not numerous, while a larger number than both of these combined would have to admit a shrinkage, if their assets were valued at realizable figures. There is, however, one consideration which has been very apparent in the year just closed, and from which some comfort may be derived—namely, that the: active surplus *r capital employed in the mercantile trade of the country has been «holrn to be in larger proportion to the «xtenc of business done, and to the amount of existing liabilities, than at any time in our previous history, and is, we believe, in excess of that of any other country in the woTld having a proportionate extent of internal trade. That thiB la the case is made obvious by the absence of any thing like general disaster among the traders, in numerous branches,- notwithstanding they have suffered intensely for so long a time from the depression and inertise of the period. It ia true, tbat the failures of the year are numerous, important, and, many eases significant, but uuey have been confined to no distinctive» trades they bear a very small proportion to the. number in each branch of business and above all,.in many caseaaome circumstances are noticeable involving departure from legitimate business principles, which would result sooner or later, in rain, .even in the beat times. Failures reeulting frorirrindividual indiscretions in business, and fraudulent attempts to make tSoney by oompromiaing when legitimate business is doll, should not be regarded as indications of a want of capital in trade generally,nor a lack of ability to stand tbe press-
ure of tbe times, long continued and severe though the strain may .be. Indeed, considering all the circumstances of tbe past two years, ana all tbat has occurred to depress values, destroy confidence, and generally to embarras business operations, tbe failures in many leading lines have been astonishingly few, indicating previous accumulations of capital, limited internal indebtedness, and a sounder condition of things generally than it was supposed could exist after all tbe waste of war, excessive taxation, a vastly increased currency, and the necessary expansion which followed. So that, though the year has resulted very rarely in profit, and irifcre frequently in loss, there] is much in its history to encourage confidence in the ability of the rank and tile of the commercial "community to wait for better times.
There seems no nearer approach to a solution' of the difficulties under which trade is suffering than at this time last year. The pressure of the period, instead of being relieved, appears to be augmented. The inspiriting national event of tbe centennial year will, it is believed, for a time in fuse considerable activity iu some localities. A great influx of visitors l'rom abroad, and the necessary circulation of money which is implied in the movement of large numbers of our own population, can hardly fail to vitalize some drooping interests. This temporary impulse may be taken advantage of in the progress towards prosperity, but tbe hopes oi a future sound business superstructure must rest on'the basis of honest thrift and economy, less fixed and more floating capital,* and a closer adjustment of values to a reduced cost of production. Prudence iu extent of trade, reduction of living and business expenses, lessened indebtedness, and close scrutiny of credits, are tbe elements that will most help to restore coufidence and beget, a return to a condition of business in which money cau be made, tbe resources ot the country developed and success achieved.
TI1E GOVERNORSHIP.
Bon. Jease Is. Williams iDedlnvs the Use of His Name m» a Vanidate. Editor of the Fort Wayne Gazette:
My name having been mentioned in connection with the office of Governor, and the meeting of tbe State Convention approaching, it is proper to say that I am not a candidate for the nomination. At the same time I cannot forbear toexpress, sincerely, my thanks to the Gazette and tb my neighbors for marked expressions of confidence. The convention will readily find a standard bearer, better fitted to lead in the coming canvass —a canvass of the highest importance to the State and the conntiy.
You remark truly, that I have ever acted with tbe Republican party since its organization, though, I trust, without personal unkindness to any. And now, on review of the great and far reaching events of the last fifteen years—the momentous problems of public policy, pressing for solution and settlement, periling the existence of the Union, through which perils the country was »o wisely guided, this steady support oftho Republican policy, has still the approval of my judgment and conscience. Within no like period has there been so great advancement iu all that gives stability to national interests, or in the strength, grandeur and influence of the United States among the Governments of the wor!d.
It would scarcely be creditible but for the record that, ou the 12 ih of December, I860, fifteen years ago, an honored Democratic member of Congress from Ohio gravely proposed inthat body the division of the Republic into four seperate National Governments,—the North, the South, the West and the Pacific slope. Better counsels prevailed. Ninety days later Lincoln, the Republican President was inaugurated. Troops were called out for defence and to enforce the laws and instead of four petty Governments, ever in conflict over ^border interests, we have still the old Union of glorious memory, with thirty-seven States, covering the whole area* from ocean to ocean. The civil war overthrew, as we nlay hope extreme theories of State sovereignty. By sound construction we are a nation—a nation, too without a slave.
The idea that the Republican party has fullfilled its mission is a notable fallacy. The wisdom and prudence that saved in the storm, may be trusted to guide the ship in the succeeding calm.

BABC«CK TRIAL.
preparations for tbe Forheomlnff Trial of tbe president'
Or* Private Secretary Washington Special to-the New York Her aid.
The apparent lull in the Babcock case must not be construed as indicating alack of activity on the part of either the prosecution or defence. It is but the calm before the storm, the preliminary disposing and alignment of batalions prepatory to the charge of battle. Each party is busily engaged huntnig tip and arranging tbe evidence upon which tbe guilt or in* nocence of the President's private secretary and confidential is to be established. The array of council retained by Babcock embraces some of the most eminent of the legal frater nity, culled from various portions of the United States. The full list is not positivly -knowB, but, in addition to the crumbs, of St. Louis, father and eon. J. K. Porter, of New York City, well known as one of the counsel in the Beecher scandal and Emory Storrs, one of the legal luminaries of Chicago, and distinguished as a criminal lawyer of unusual ability, have been retained^ It is not generally known but nevertheless true that when Bibcock first saw tbe crooked whisky troubles ahead Ben. Butler was engaged as leading counsel in the case, and it was entirely owing to the delicate condition of Butler's health at that time, and the injunctions of his physician forbidding the step, that the Essex statesman did not proceed to St. Louis when Babeock's name was first mentioned in connection with an iiidietment. Butler lis reported to have said, after examining the ease from Babcoek's standpoint, that he felt confident': that if he could have been permitted by his physician to go to St. Louis at the commencement of Babcock'sdifficulty, he
ucould"—imitating
the Ian*
guageof Sam Wilkeson when testifying in the Beechsr case—"have knocked the indictment higher than a kite.'I It is unfortunate, terhap9, for Babeok that his is not to have tbe benefit of Butler as his senior counsel. The prosecution,'ho donbt, congratulate themselves on their escape, and can repeat without j&stinR the well worn play on the bottled hero's name:

JUDGE A. B. CAALT0X.
What tlia Papers Say or His Cande* dacy for Jndge of the Supreme Court.
From the Seymour Deraociat. We understand that Jndge A.. B. Carlton's name will be presented to the next Democratic State Convention for judge of the Supreme Court for the Terre Haute district. Judge Carlton i9 so well known in this part of the State, that any remarks we might make in his favor, would be regarded as superfluous, yet we will venture to say that a better man for the position will be hard to find, and Judge C. will have a host of frienus in these parts to aid his nomination.
From the Bedford Binner.
Wo understand.from reliable authority, that our distinguished friend and former fellow-citizen, Judge Carleton, has at last yielded to the earnest importunities ot his many friends throughout the State, and has consented that his name may be presented to the next Democratic State convention, as a candidate for the office of Supreme Judge. This will not only meet with tbe approbation of the psople of this and surrounding counties, but will extend to the entire southern partion of tha State, whore Judge Carlton has spent the groater portion if bis professional life. It he should be chosen by the convention and elected to tbat important office, we would congratulate not only ourselves, but the people of tbe Stntp, tfiat they will not only have selected a

THE SPIRIT OF '76
Yiz.—Crooked Whisky. AT INDIANAPOLIS.
Indiauapolis, Jan. 19.—The entire session of the United States court today was occnpied in the hearing of witnesses in the Brownlee case. Harrison Miller, testified to Brownlee having visited the Patoka distillery and afterward reported irregularities in the book9 of the supervisor of the district, Christopher Cochenour, distiller at Patoka, testified that in March. 1875, Brownlee. accompnied by Bingham, visited the mash floor and ferment room where there was one extra mash on the floor. The witness gave as his opinion tbat two-thirds. of the whisky manufactured by the Bingham's was crooked. John W. Bingham testified that he and his brother Gordon ..yron Bingham, had paid Brownlee $1,000, the last live-huudred wa^ paid to Brownlee at his room in St. George hotel, Evangvile, about the 22d of March in 1875.

AN OIi O BISHOP.
ALong Life of taefnlnesa From the Vinconnes Scin. On the 14th of January, 1849, Maurice de St. Palias, then a priest of the dio cese, was consecrated Bishop of the diocese of Vincennes. For twentyseven years the Right Rev. Bishop has been one of the foremost primates in the Catholic Church in the West He has seen bis diocease increase in numbers and wealth, and in that time,what is much more flattering to tbe christian lite of our beloved and worthy Bishop, be has gained for himself the highest respect and love, not only of his own laiety -and clergy, but ha» made himself beloved by the Protestant world. -His has been a long life of usefulness spent in tba service of the "meek and lowly Master." His children pray that he may be spared many years, and we sincerely hope tbat the next quarter oi a century of his Fpiscopacy may be as prolific of aB much happiness to him and beneficial to bie people as the first has been.
Amen.

AT ST. LOUIS/
St. Loyis, Jan. 10.—In the United States Circuit Court to-day, Judges Sellon and Trent being on the bench, Judge Jno. M. Krum, one of tbe counsel for Wm. McKee, asked leave to withdraw the plea of not guilty, and file the demurer to the indictments.. Permission was granted, and the demurer was filed after reciting the points of the indictments. The demurer states that the indictment is not «ufficient in the law that Mc Kee is not bound by the law of the land, to answer the same, that he prays the judgment of the said indictment,, and asks to be dismissed and discharged, and that the indictment be quashed. The demurrer will be argued to-morrow.

London* Jan. 19.—A special dispatch from Rome says the Italian Government h^s closed tho Episcopal seminary at Como for its refusal to admit the Government inspector. This is a most important act, being the strongest step taken in tbe States dealing with tbe church, and will doubtless produce great results.

London, Jan. 19.—A Paris correspondent says the Republicans claim they will certainly elect their candidate* for the Senate in twenty-nine departments.
Paris, Jan. 20.—The Moniteur gives the following estimate of the result of the elections for Senatorial delegates: Sevonteen departments aro doubtful thirty-three are decidedly conservative six Bonapartist and sixteen Republican. M. Buffet's election in Vosges appears to be certain. Militant Bonapartists will probably only obtain thirty seats in the Senate.
The Great Revivalists.
Philadelphia, Jan. 19.—This morniDg tbe first session of the Christian convention called by tbe Evangelists, began at the Depot Tabernacle. The entire enclosure was filled. After prayer, Moody announced the first subject to be Evangelistic services, and how to conduct them.

Tho next subject was, how to conduct prayer meetings. He said, the minister should take a seat down with the congregation, and induce them to speak, and take part in the meeting. After the third subject, "The water of lifo," had been discussed, Rev. Dr. Muohinore addressed the convention, and brought the morning session to a close.
The convention reassembled at 3. M., and took up tbe subject of inquiry meetings, which was discussed one hour. Tb© last sut^ct discussed was the training of young converts. closed the session for the day.

I will be a faithful public servant in the high position of Senator. I hope not to disappoint the confidence so generally reposed in me.. I would like to say more, but will close, returning ray sincere thanks.
That Everlasting Beechcr Business. New York, Jan. 19.—At a meeting of examining committee of Plymouth church to night, S. N. White, .one of the members, stated his grievances aSainst H. C. Bowen, which so far as can be ascertained.to-night foom Bowen, for reporters were not admitted, consisted in the fact that White .called on' Bowen in, November, and asked him to tell all he knew about Beecher, and that Bowen refused to talk on tho scandal. Bowen charged that some member of the church bad given information to tbe press,wbich!several of them denied,but Shearman admitted that he had spoken of tbe matter. Bowen then called for the advice they intended to give him, but they replied that they wanted first to hear from him. The committee finally agreed to give him a written copy of tne grievances in a few days but he will not attend any more meet ings unless allowed a stenographer, which was refused to-night.
Don't Like Oar Money.
London, Jan. 20.—The Times speaking of the proposition of Sena* tor Sherman for common unit, for money and accounts for the Ubited States and Great Britain says: The idea finds no fayos here. It might suit Americans, as most of. their gold is locked up in some treasuries, while English sovereign circulates in mil lions throughout the world. The disturbance arising from the change would be indescribable, particularly in the absence of specie payments in the American liabilities of Jos. Gourey & Co., will not exceed .£50,000. The liabilities of Samuel Radford & Son, grain merchants, Liverpool, are about £136,000, and their assets £154,000. Their creditors took acceptance in full, payable in three, six and nine months. \.
