In the money article of the Jour-
nal of Commerce, bearing date of the
15th inst., we find an intelligentto-
sponse to an inquiring mind. The
answer is, in the main, eo good that
we reproduce it entire, although we
desire enly to ask special considera-
tion to tho statements made relative
to failures and ultimate losses, sus-
tained eveu hy those who gain a
fortune:
" An ' old subscriber' wishes to
know what proportion of those
who succeed iu acquiring a
tencyin business pursuits ultimate-
ly retain it. This problem has been
worked at by many statisticians,
with about tho same results. Of
those who engage in business on
their own account, only three out of
a hundred escape failure, and only
five out of a hundred succeed in
avoiding an entire collapse of thoir
tirsteffort. Ofthoso who at somo time
or other have in hand a reasonable
competence and may be said to have
succeeded in business, ninety per
cent, are stilt the subjects of after re-
verses of some sort, so that only ten
per cent, of the successful ones
keep their fortune unshaken. Two
things ought to be strongly im-
pressed upon the young people of
our country: the insecurity of
riches even when acquired, and their
unsatisfying character. There is'rio
fallacy so universally cherished as
the notion that wealth is surely tho
means of happiness. Tho caro of a
largo property is one of the most
burdensome of earth's trusts. Tho
only material good which comes
of any estate is to be made out of a
moderate income far more easily
than from a large ono, and with
fewer attendant disadvantages. Pew
thoughtful men would undertake the
entire stewardship of a largo estate
on a positive bargain that they
should receive no more for taking
caro of it than ordinarily falls into
the cup ofita owner. The Scramble
after wealth is due to a wrong es-
timate of the good to be acquired
from it when it is gained. We speak
not now ot the immense sacrifices
made in the pursuit, such as the
waste 6f health, character, peaco
of mind, and even life ftnolf; but
of t.he little to corn o from it in the
way of reward even should tbe pur-
suer be successful. And the corrod-
ing care which each large addition
brings cannot be escaped by the
wisest uso of it. The more consci-
entious tho possessor may be, the
more ho is likely to feel the burden
of his stewardship. The sweetest
«njoyment in tho useof raonoy is to
the dispensation of bouuty, bat
this is sadly marred by the judi-
cious care required in tho selection
of recipients. - Tiro man who is
earning a good living, with some-
thing to apare annually for the
sweet uaes of charity, is far loss
tried in this respect, He relieves
as far as he can tho cases of distress
that appeal most strongly to him, or
touch his heart most deeply, and is
not overpreSsed in this direction.
But whan onoohe has the repute of
wealth, the applications ¿ome in like
a flood. Tbem is not; a woaltnv mWi
id
mon misapprehension on this point
among thosa whoso sympathies are
not thus tested. If They belicvo
a rich man ought to answor every
logitimato call on bis bounty, and if
they know ot any genuino case of
sufferiüg brought to his notice whieb
he has tailed to reiieve they lay up
tho refusal to his di&crodit, The
truth is, however, that tho widest
possible channel of bonevolonce can-
not irrigate all q( earth's barren
wastes over which it might bo made
to flow. Each steward of a largo
property, however ehaiitably dis
posed, can select but a few of the
ohjeqts presented to his pity, and if
his Urge resources are publicly
known, must reject a large pari of
tho applications made to him. The
seUotioft <>( those to be helped by
him, and the rejection of ao mapy
th#t ong()t to bo helped by some-
body, is a groat drawback on the
luxury of doing gftod. Most
thoughtful mon^of large income ap-
propriat® a certain sum to cover
suoh disbursement?. They often
disitfiminalo unwi-oly, and some-
time are governed by mere whim
or caprice in the distribution, for it
is Jiuman* to err even with the best
intentions ; but there is no possible
way in which the largest sum they
can set apart for charity could be
mado to cover, all the cases of real
suffering that come boforo them.
Every ouo k^ows something of the
anxiety apd vexation attendant on
the caro of' property whero it is to
bo hold securely in trust; we hare
only just hinted at the burden which
even a wise distribution of charity
imposes, to show that on its motft
favorod side tho trusteeship is not
a position to be bo eagerly coveted."
Admitting, as wo must, tho truth
of tho assertion that "of thoso who
engage in business on their own ac-
count, only three out of a hundred
escape failure, and only five out of a
hundred succeed iu avoiding an en-
tire collapse of their first effort,"
we aro led to search for tlie cause.
We have not far to seek, for it lic-s
in the fact that tho massos are igno-
rant of the great truths bf political
economy# The development of the
difficulties attending such ignorarle
is mainly through thó credit system;
based Upon onr present laws for the
collection of dobts and au imperfect
currency.
S<^ soou as, and not until, ail laws
tot tjm, soluto * .ftLdcbt*
represented by mortgage on roa! or
personal estato, duly filed or record*
ed) shall bo repealed, andan issue of
national paper money (interchange-
able with Government bonds boar^
ing a fixed rate of intorost) bo made

will business men be fully relieved
from the embarrassments above set
forth.

There is a negro regiment in

oloseiy into any man's motives.

those who lovo liberty, truth and
justice. Ho should not vote for a
man moroly for what be bad. dono
in the past, but for what
he was now doino.
Tho colored peoplo muBt be men ;

the time would come when thoro
would be no more colored regi-

black and white would be sandwiched
together, as the black and white
keys ot tho piano-forte, when the
