Banks are easier and strengthening, and both present indications and future out look hopeful and better. Insurance men report that their business is keeping pace with other branches of business, and agents in the field in North Carolina report as their observation among the people that money matters are im proving. Sheriffs are settling their taxes with the State, and the Treasurer has resumed payments under advice that the order of the Federal Judge was a notice, merely, instead of an injunction. This alone has given great relief in Raleigh, and the money thus paid out will soon find its way to the people over the State. All in all the financial crisis in North Carolina, under the good management of our proverbially honest people has not not been nearly so bad as it might have been. As the financial centre of the State the example of Raleigh has had a good effect on the whole of our people, and for the rescue of our State, and the' business Northern, MEAL, per bu., CORN, per bu., 56 lbs BACON Bulk Smoked, HAMS, N.

The illustrations of The Aldine have won a world-wide reputation, and in the art centres of Europe it is an ad mitted fact that its woodcuts are exam ples of the highest perfection ever at tained. The common prejudice in favor of "steel plates," is rapidly yielding to a more educated and discriminating taste which recognizes the advantages of superior artistic quality with greater facility of production. The wood cuts of The Aldine possess all the delicacy and elaborate finish of the most costly steel plate, while they afford a better rendering of the artist's original. To fully realize the wonderful work which The Aldine is doing for the cause of art culture in America, it is only necessary to consider the cost to the S15 00 I people of any other decent representa- " I ." .f 11 1 . 25 00 I "ns oi me prouueuons oi great pain ters.

They are wonderfully successful representa tions by mechanical process of the original paintings. Very respectfully, (Signed,) Thos. Moran. These chromos are in every sense American. They are by an original American process, with material of American manufacture, from designs of American scenery by an American painter, and presented to subscribers to the first successful American Art .jour nal. If no better because of all this, they will certainly possess an interest no foreign production can inspire, and neither are they any the worse if by reason of peculiar facilities of produc tion they cost the publishers only a trine, while equal in every respect to other chromos that are sold singly for double the subscription price of The Aldine. Persons of taste will prize these pictures for themselves not for the price they did or did not cost, and will appreciate the enterprise that ren ders ther distribution possible.
