In 1873 Mr. David (J. Crolev, of New
York.toimrrlv managing editor of the
New Viirft World , and iftermrdi of the
Graphic published some predictions lw
vpum-d tu,eve*it« lor ilmt yew which af*
tcr#ard« gained great notoriety, from the
!ad 11 at h* foretold the collapse of the
Northern r»ci(ic Railroad, and the panic
id the lull of that vear, which he cer»
tuftly did. Mr. Croly ha« tried hi*head
at it again, and here are Us prediction*
as sutniourized iu the New York Graph*
ic 4,
1. The year 1879 will on the whole, be
a^ prosperous one for the United States.
There will bo a general revival of Indus*
try, la-mr will bo employed, and co«>fi«
donee in the future universally felt. Be
fore the close #>f the year there will be a
widespread interest iu precious metal
intuitu;. A dangerous specula ivo feel"
Ing iu other industries will soon show
iuelf. ..
2. Tl ere will bo a partial failure of
crops this year. Our hay crop ou the
Atlantic nlo|>o will be thort.
3. At least two important failures of
Wall stre«-l magnates will take place this
year. They will be of persons with
whose namea-every one Is tainiiiar.
4. An unsuspected weakness in opt l
national banking Astern may be develop
ed during the year.
6. The dispro|)oilion between our e*-
ports and such as we have wit*
nessed lor tlie past two years* will come
to an end before 1881. Home prices vill
go higher an* foreign goods will be sold
cheaper. We shall CJCpbrt less and im
port more. Cities* the ai>ex|*oted
enrrs, there will be a drain dTfcoJd abroad
and then resumption, as at psesent es
tablished. must be legislated upou anew
or it will fall,
6. Should the eountrv be prosperous
and resumption ataud until the national
convention meets in 1880. John .Sherman
will lie the oandidate of the sßepoblioan
party for the Presidency.
7. Resumption has not settled all our
financial difficulties. Questions afleoting
the business interests ot the eonutrf will
bo theaubjersl of manf Watin political !
contests. But the final result will be the
establishment of a national bank similar
to that ot Great Britain or Franee, but
probably called by a different name.
When that occurs the Secretary ot the
Treasury will be stripped Ot much or (he
power he now possesses.
8. A foreign war before many \-ears
are over is not improbable, doe to the
weakness ot onr navy and the unprotect
ed condition of onr rich seaport cities.
9. A new pestileuco or the revival of
an old one, which will affect the people
inhabiting the temperate sone, it among
the probabilities of the near future.
9. A new motor will soon he discover*
ed which will make air navigatiou possh
ole.
