no experience of a foreign war to guide us, and
f our civil war waiao peculiar la lie conditions
that It doe not aid the judgment even ot the
minority of our citizens who hare survived It.
We hare a new lesson to learn, which only new
events can teach us.
As wo said In this column, last Monday, if the
present war should terminate in a few weeks,
either through diplomatic agrnclcs, or by one
or two decisive naval engagements, tho provnll
Ingdopresslon in prices would speedily come to
an end and be followed fay a rise. Should the
'war, on the other hand, bo protracted, tho Gov
eminent will bo obliged, not only to Increase
taxation but to borrow money, and Its borrow
ing will Inevitably rnlso tho rates ot lutercst
for monoy and correspondingly depress tho
Tirlccs of securities. Capitalists having capital
to Invest will, to some extent, at least, glvo tho
preference to Government bonds, and to somo
extent, also, thoy will sell tholr present Invest
ments lu order to tnke Government bonds In ex
change. In such a esse, there can be no great
upward movemont In prices, and if tho amount
naked for by tho Government runs into the nun
' drrds ot millions, prices must inevitably toll.
Tho assumption Is mado lu certain quarters.
In vihtch tho warts deplored as a blunder nnd
oven condomned as n crime, on our part, that
wli6thct it Is to bo short or long, nnd whatever
'liria been or may bo Its effect on the stock mnrkct.
It has already caused serious Injury to trade and
H destinod to causo still more before It Is ended.
Glories are told ot a diminished volume of sales
nf goods, ot countermanded orders to factories,
nf o foiling otT In thonumberot passengers go-
IM I Ing (o Europe, nnd of a widespread hesitation to
M I litre summer residences on the sencosst, throngh
foarof bombardments by Spanish war vessels.
pMf.X for as theso stories have been Investigates
Iff ' I' they have proved to be largely exaggerations,
fF nd even if they were entirely true, they would
I I xrove, rntoertho Influence of nlarmed Imagina-
J ttlons, than ono directly duo to the war.
1 It ought alwnys to be homo In mind that nil
n trade, whether domestlo or International, Is an
V- exchnngo of commodities which nro tho fruits of
Alt' labor. It is, therefore, in reality, an exchange of
IiS I labor or services of one kind for labor or ser-
K J -fleet ot other kinds. As civilisation has ad-
IK Tnneed the occupations of the human raco have
ml I more and more multiplied, until, from the sav-
iff ftco atat0 ln 1thlcl1 every family provided for
fK ( itself all the commodities It consumed, it has
fcjvjri arrived at a condition In which each Individual
ISrrjt! has his special vocation, and for tho satisfaction
I rjjjfc of n,s wants beyond tho results of exercising
'MB that vocation hodopondB upon other Individuals,
.. ffiX who, like him, have each their part to perform in
U-lM tbo T,0rld'8 industry. The agriculturist raises
i Jig food and materials for clothing; the miner
I Isl mines fuel and ore; and the artisan takes the
p. (fljf products of bath and converts them into fabrics
I' lju of utility and beauty.
'; lm In what are called prosperous times, this ln-
IU terchangoot the fruits of labor goes on briskly.
j. B Bvory producer finds a purchaser for his prod-
81 uct, and In turn becomes a ourchasor for his frac-
f HI tlonal sharo ot tho products of his fellow
6 laborors. There is neither dearth on the ono
'' 1 bund nor scarcity on tho other. Supply equals
! Ij demand and demand equals supply. Such an
I' H equilibrium is, however, nccessnrily unstable,
V and liable to disturbance. Particular branches
i ii of industry Bnrceed, by tho improvements of
C B) xnacbinsry, or by attracting to themselves an
yS.ft undue number of participants, In supplying the
tjvsjg- world with more of a particular commodity
f s tban tho world desires. Changes ofVcustotn and
Mk freaks of fashions render commodities ot a cer-
jjf7B tain kind less marketable than they were before,
l K bo that, tho production ot them remaining tho
t j fi same, the consumption of them is lessened, and
i t their producers. In turn, are less able to consume
ft tho commodities of others. Then those branches
v of trade are sold to be bad.
S It has been a frequent subjsct of comment,
3 usually accompanied by admiration, among
thoughtful observers, that, notwithstanding
fi ' the multiplicity ot men engaged in industrial
j jit pursuits, and their want of knowledge of on
jft2. another's operations, the adjustment of produo-
JH J tton to consumption should, on tho whole, be as
Kli perfeotas it is. Ordinarily, no greater a quan
! tlty of any commodity Is produced than can
jia readily he consumed. A surplus is avoided
Rk'J either by limiting production in advance, or
ir through a reduction in price increasing con-
A sumption to moot it. When the market is
fully supplied with cotton cloth, or with pig
Iron, or with shoes, or with any other
1; -, ortlole, the makers ot them stop making them,
mT and U they And they have made them in oxcess
1 of the demand for them they try to dispose of
-' them by offering them to purchasers at lower
prices. Retailers, too, cease adding to their
stocks when they have more goods on hand than
they can soil, and thus prevent loss.
) ' This process of adjustment, however, goes on,
always, at the expense ot tholndlviduals affect
i ed, and, frequently, at one of a great Industrial
X y calamity to whole communities. The agrlcul-
I '' turiat. stimulated by a large crop and high
I prices one year, prepares to get a larger crop the
year following, and oxpecta to obtain as high a
1 prioe for it, if not a higher one. Ills neighbors
do the same, and so, besides bit nolghbors, do
'j' thousands of other agriculturists. The result,
I if the elements favor him, which is uncertain,
1 maybe the larger crop which ho expected, but
l, the prioe may be so low that ho receives less
money for it than be did for that of the year
yi before. A particular manufacture, proving to
be very profitable, entices other manufacturers
i to engage in it, and the competition thus started
ruins all ot them. Eo, the struggle for exlstcnio
, which goes on continually in tbo animal and
-.' the vegotablo worlds, oxtends also to that ot
human Industry. The same means by which
'.' the mats is benefited is destructive to ports of
,. . It Seeing this perpetual struggle and tho loss
",1 which It on tails, tho Socialists contend that all
t industry should be regulated by the Govern
ment, and that the production of no more ot
any commodity should be permitted than Is ds-
imanded by consumers. Precisely how the of
ficers ot a government could ascertain In ad
V vance the demand for each commodity, and how
,' they would enable the. producers of It to earn
"' their living when the demand for their services
, was not sufflolentto keep them busy at their
m trudes, has never been satisfactorily explained,
Urn Nor, has It been explained bow, under such
mm govemmont regulation, Industrial occupations
tT would Increaso In productivity. Progress In In-
i Vdfr vontlon would have to stop, lost workmen
I If should bo I hro wn out of work.
Ln In times of poace, therefore. It Is plain that
V trade is subject to fluctuations which are, at
present, beyond humn control, and, as we
'- know, these fluctuations aro occasionally wide-
,f' i, spread and violent. The Inequality between
i'' supply and demand, which every year occurs in
?, ; special departments of industry, and Is due to
pedal causes, sometimes manifests itself in all
i, departments at ones, and constitutes a commer-
dto, clal crisis. Klrst comes an enormous general
7 activity in production, with which consumption
Is unable to keep pace, and, then, a revulsion, in
, which both production and consumption are
J curtailed, and trado is partially paralysed.
After the crisis, consumption slowly overtakes
the reduced production, and the ordinary course
of affairs is resumed. To bring on such a crisis
1 war evidently lias no direct power. It can do It
' '' only ly suddonly reducing consumption and
' thus diminishing the volume of exchanges be
tween traders. This it may effect by diminish
I ,'. ng the number of consumers, or, their vowsr to
consume, or, rooro likely, thelrdesire to do so.
1 -' The present war will' not, probably, diminish
the number of consumers nor their power to oon-
sum, beoaute it will ead to no great mortality
among either our soldiers or our sailors, and
I these, whsrevcr they may be sent, will have to
' i be ulotlis'l an.! ttA and suppllsd with munltloos

industry. This wU bo lb wotk of Imagination
and not that of necessity. It wilt be like the
panto ot frncality which fallowed the financial
panto ot 1803, ana from which the country
has only recently begun to recover. Evi
dently, if every man sets to work; to see
how little fa can spend ot hi own labor
In employing the labor ot ht fellow men,
all business must cease, except that which sup
plies the barest necessities ot lit, ir, for the
next twMvo months, nobody buy new clothes,
or new furniture. It everybody, refrain from
consuming wine, beer, and tobacco, from enter
talnlng hi friends, and from supplying bht
family with other food than bread and potatoes,
the purveyors ot clothing furniture, butchers'
meat; wine, beer, tobaoco, fruit, and similar
luxuries; will have, thtmtslves to coma down
to an equally frugal style Ot living, and our
present edldce of Industrial activity will go to
Pisces. 8uch a calamity cannot b attributed to
war. It would proceed from pore fright, to
Which, It is ssfo to say, American citlxena have
too much good sense to succumb.
Even conceding, therefore, that the tint effect
of the war has been. In a measuro, to check the
volumo of ordinary trade, this effect cannot be
otherwls than temporary, and will speedily be
followed by renewed activity, Tho Industries
set In motion to create war material do not. In
deed, add to the permanent wealth ot the coun
try, but they supply employment to hundred of
thousands ofpcopleand furnish them with the
means ot indirectly employing hundreds of
thousands of other people. Nor nro these In
dustries any loss profltablo to the community
than many of those of psaco. Powder and
shot, when they aro consumed, leave be
hind them nothing of value, but the earn
thing te true of whlsxey and tobacco. Ship
of war aro useless for commerce, but so
ar pleasure yachts. Th uniforms and equip
ment of soldiers and sailors, also, are ot more
immediate valu than the holiday clothe of
civilians. In fact, nine tenths ot the dally ex
penditure ot the majority of us might, in an
emergency, be dispensed with, and It one of
those nine tenths should be diverted to wax
purposes, It will not ruin us.

SHORT STORIES
ABOUT
REAL ESTATE TITLES
Certain property in Brooklyn was
foreclosed in 1857, but the children
DEFENDANT of the original

COMMENCED. . , ,. .
had died some
time before the foreclosure suit
began. - The foreclosure was a nul
lity, therefore, and the Court of
Appeals awarded the property to
the children. It was taken away
from people who had bought it
years after the foreclosure. They
suffered a total loss, as did the
executors of an estate who had
loaned $15,000 upon it.
