Not many years ago there was—as there 1 has lately liceti again—a good deal of dis trust and agitation in eomniereial circles, 'chiefly arising from some very heavy fail ures. One gigantic linn had fallen, and In-ought many others down in its tumble. The alarm naturally fe.lt at this spread and the rumors which always attend, and often c ause, a panic, spread also, so that scarcely any undertaking, however well established and solvent, entirely escaped doubt and suspicion. We do not promise to enter upon the history of any commer cial panic, or even to sketch one; hut every reader can remember, and what is worse, will see again, the deliberate and organized efforts to "wreck” really sol vent houses, tiif the benefit of selfish and unscrupulous speculators; and how not only cmharrass.id and weak houses went down in the crash, hut houses whieh—had time and fair play been given them—were in fair working condition. After this preface, short as it had been, the reader will quite understand how men who hud realized by years of toil, often of exile and danger, anything like a compe tence, felt very uneasy as to their invest ments, no matter how good they had hith erto proved and Mr. Caleb Burton, who had settled comfortably down in the vicin ity of London, after many years’ labor in a distant colony', felt as uneasy as the rest. He was a tolerably rich man, and was considerably past his prime; yet having married late in life, he saw a young fami ly growing up around him, which became more expensive every day. A small por tion of his fortune was invested in hue land; nut the hulk was. and had Iwen tor some years, invested on deposit, at pretty high interest, in the Gulf of Carpentaria and Northern Australia llauk, which was in high repute among all the colonists from that part of the continent, and which did more business at its Loudon office than almost any of the colonial banks. He had lieen induced to leave his money in the colony from the fact ot his acijuain tanceship with most ot the Directors; while the manager at the chief establish ment, on the Gulf of Carpentaria, Fred Itockman by name, had been an old chum when Mr. Burton was a digger, and was believed to lie. and truly so, one ot the most honorable and straightforward of men. So Mr. Burton felt as secure as a man could feel—at first. But while a poor man may sleep soundly amid the crash of banks, discount offices, and great mercantile firms, it is nigh upon impossi ble for a rich man to do so; and the day soon came when the toppling over of first one great house, and then another, whose names had hitherto stood almost as types of soundness, alarmed even him, and lie could not refrain from paying daily visits to London, and haunting certain localities well known to all interested in financial transactions, and where—amid a thou sand false reports, it must be admitted— the first whisper of coming disaster would lie sure to circulate. Like a good husband he had tried to conceal his uneasiness from Mrs. Burton hut on her part, tike a good wife, she was not to be so deceived tnd when once his preoccupied manner and occasionally wan dering replies had attracted attention, the revelation of his su\ict\ soon followed, and she grew more anxious than himself. With n mother's anxiety, she trembled for the fate of Master Caleb and Miss Amelia, with three or four other young ladies and gentlemen whose cots she was wont to visit, and whose foreheads she was wont to kiss every night of her life. So her alarm reacted upon her husband and made him incomparably more sensitive than before. All tins, however, took but a lew days in its growth for nothing is so swift as the changes and fears of a commercial panic: and ten days had hardly passed since the fall of tiie aforesaid great house, before Mr. Burton commenced his visit to London. Tic was in the habit of taking his lunch at a particular tavern where for eign and colonial merchants greatly con gregate, and where lie saw many persons who were known to him in the davs when he lived in the city. With these lie often spoke, sometimes of the old times, but more frequently of the new. One day a man entered the coffee-room and looked round as though in search of some one. Mr. Burton hud occasionally seen and spoken to this mail in his visits to the tav ern. lie was not very intimate witli him, for his recollection of the man was not al together favorable he had been engaged in some very doubtful transactions iu the colony, and moreover borrowed money of Burton under some specious pretense, which turned out to be wholly false, and and not one penny of this hail he repaid. Mr. Burton was just sitting down to lunch when lie caught the eye of this individual, who was somew hat shinier, not to say greasier, in his lint and clothes than the majority of the guests, and he looked round with so wistful ail air, that, moved by an impulse for which he could hardly account. Mr. Burton beckoned him to his table and invited him to join him at lunch, lie was sorry for it the moment he had spoken; but the Captain—he was called the “Captain" from having once owned a coasting vessel—gave him no time to change his mind, lie accepted the invita tion with tiie greatest alacrity: and al though his appetite was clearly of the keen est. strove to make himself agreeable by communicating all the scandal with which the very atmosphere was charged, and in which he reveled. This he fortified and eked out with suc.li mysterious wink and nods that half of what lie said w as un intelligible to his hearer. At last the meal was finished ami the Captain, draining the last drop from a tumbler of cold brandy and water, to which lie was invited, shook his entertainer hv the hand as the latter rose, and, referring for the first time to padt transactions, de clared he was the best-hearted and most forgiving party he knew, and that some day lie would do him a good turn. Burton rather abruptly thanked him, and cut short his gratitude by turning away and had (Continued on Fourth Page.j

All these are as well defined in the eonstitu tion as can be done by word, (and our Ian uage is very expressive,'*) Just where the I judicial ceases and the executive begins mid ends, are borders of authority aboutw liieli men have disputed, quarrelled and fought in the past, are now disputing, and w ill to the .end of time dispute; but on the whole our system of government is admirably adapted to the grow ing and ever-changing interest of our diversified land; and though we often lose patience at particular events, every American who goes abroad especially those of the South who in disgust at the end of the w ar went to lirazil or Mexico, returns more than satisfied with their own country. I remem ber in lHtil discussing w itli Hovd and Hragg. and Dick Taylor all these questions in Loui iana and confess tluit I am surprised that this old doctrine of a soverignty belonging to a State like Louisiana, Mississippi, or South Carolina, greater than that of the nation, should he revived in our national debates, ut ter it had been settled by the great tribunal of war. Rivalry among the States and pride at the intellectual and physical development of each hy its own inhabitants is riglit«and proper, but if a State claims to lie above tin whole, and usurps siu-li power, the nation must suppress it, first hy judicial process, and if that be not sufficient, then by force and violence. It this conclusion he univer sally recognized as the law and the fact it In v er will occur. The Louisiana Senatorship At the Kellogg-Npofford investigation in Washington, l>.

Mr. ltrouett (a democrat) had told him that if he recorded his vote in the h gi luturc for Spofford that he could get vvhal money he wanted, but he refused: was ap proached on the cars on his way to Washing ton and informed that hy supporting Spofford he would be taken care of; avanae had also told him that Spofford would divide hi- salary During the further examination of witness he said he was told ftloOO would be given for go ing over to the Nieholls legislature, blithe never received the money. Senator Kellogg interrogated the witness who testified further as follows Kldcr told him that ('avanae wus getting up affidavits for Spofford to show that there was no quorum in the Packard legisla lature that elected Kellogg. Klder said lie wanted only five to break the quorum, and that that was the plan, and if they could suc ceed in breaking the quorum Kellogg would be unseated before this session was over. Murray said that by testifying for Spofford they could get all they wanted, and (avanae said that Spofford when seated, would divide bis salary among those w ho stuck to him. Cuvunuc wanted an affidav it similar to tin one witness gave to Kldcr; witness mentioned the names of four men with whom to break the quorum, including Murray and himself. Appropriate Kewoltif ions.

Crooker, assisted liv K. K. Pierce, Auburn's great master of the finances, were at tliis place Monday evening, to explain to us the cause of hard times, and give us the cure. The cause was, because the interest on the national debt was paid in coin instead of greenbacks. The cure w as “put us into office." It was interesting to notice what interest they had for the laboring man and his welfare, and told how they, as soon as the volume of the currency should he in creased, would take off their coats, roll up their sleeves and go to work and honestly earn some money, giving us to understand that they had not honestly earned much heretofore. Dr. Lancaster's great effort was the reckless um\. I false assertion that the funding ofthcGovern* I ment debt at a lower rate of interest, had in j creased the amount of interest that we yearly have to pay on the debt, and thi“ was a fair j ample of their whole line of argument, which j w as not to give the people the truth, hut to mo misstate and misplace facts as to lead astray those that are not well informed upon stieh 1 matters. Pierce's mflin purpose seemed to lie to confuse erne with a multiplicity of words, j reminding one of Daniel Pratt in some of his famous specimens of oratory. With our fac- I tories in full operation and everybody busy at work, their doleful account of hard times and of the millions that were starving for w ant of work, could only make us think of political mountebanks and aspiring dema gogues who want the votes of the people for office for which they have been seeking these many years. Nimrod. I.iiieii ending. Among tlie pleasant scaaontt which stand as milestone* in our pathway in lift*, was the happy gathering of tlu* many friends of Den eon and Mr*. #1. II. Sturtevant, at their home in Fayette, on Thursday, the loth ult.t it be ing the twentieth anniversary of their mar riage. Karlv in the afternoon, the guests began to arrive, and. although it was a busy season, before night more than one hundred and fifty of the people of Fayette and vicinity had taken possession of the Deacon’s premi se*. So completely were the inmates taken by surprise., that not a drop of blood was shed in the eneounter. Together w ith social hat, music and out door amusements for the younger portion of the company, in which some w hose heads were blossoming partici pated, the hours passed sw iftly away, and be fore the company were aware of the lateness of the hour, the call from labor to refresh ment was sounded, when one hundred ami thirty-four sat dow n to tables which were or namented as the ladies id' Fayette know how to do, and would have tempted the most fas tidious taste of an Oriental prince. Having satisfied the inner man, F. A. (’base, Esq., called for the reading of a spirited poem bv A. F. Watson, one by D. V. B. Ormsby of Farmington, one from Mrs. Erskitie. aim one written by a friend, and read by Kcv. Mr. Young of Mt. Vernon. Then came the pres entation of the presents by the Hon. E. K. French of f’hesterville. which consisted of a sewing machine, a purse containing ft 1*1, plated ware, linen bed spreads, table linen, towels. &t\, to the value of more than tflfMi.

The I leu. returned their thanks in a few well chosen remarks. Kcv. .1, W.

(Continued from First Page.) molt'd a pace or two through the crowded room oir his road to the door, when he I heard his name pronounced, ami looking j round, saw the Captain lieckoniug to hint, j Very much annoyed at thi*. he mereli waved his hand, ami would have continued his retreat, but that the other beckoned him agnin with so earnest a look, that Mr. Burton involuntarily went toward him. "Mr. Burton, one word with you,” said the Captain; he hooked his linger in the button-hole of the other’s coat as he spoke, ".lust one word.” Although it was but one word he wanted to say, he seemed to have a great deal of difficulty in giving utterance to it: at last he said, dropping his voice to a whisper far more myster ious than anvthat had preceded it: ''Meet j here in two hours' tint*. Mind I am I earnest.” He released his hold he i spoke, and putting his forefinger to lit' I lip as a sign of secrecy audeantton. which I was utterly needless, a* he had eommuni- j rated nothing, turned away, and was lost in the throng. Mr. Burton smiled at the man's maudlin impressiveness, as he deemed it. arising, as he supposed, from the tumbler of bran dr and water, ami decided on dismissing itini and his appointment from his mind. He went about for another hour, meeting more ol his acquaintance, each tresh one having soniething more gloomy to say than the last. Affairs really seemed to be growing worse, and even those who had been ho|x‘fnl before seemed to have lost heart now. So it was in a thoughtful mood he let) to go to the terminus of the railway, and on his wav he glanced down the narrow passage which led to the tav ern where lie had lunched an hour before. The recollection of the queer manner of the Captain came strongly upon him as he passed, and in his excited state it came back with a weight and force which he could not help feeling strongly, while yet he thought it ridiculous to do so. With every step lie took, the influence grew stronger, until with a "Pshaw of contempt at his weakness, he positively turned back, and resolved to keep the appointment, even I though lie was confident the Captain must have forgotten all about it, and in deed was now probably sleeping off his unusually lie,arty meal in the par lor of some less pretentious tavern. He felt this, vet lie could not help return ing, because there might be something at the bottom of the Captain's mystery, and he might really keep his appointment. So, as just said, lie turned back, dissatis fied though he was with himself, and in clined at every step to (ace round and hur ry to the railway station. However, he reached the tavern, and entered the coffee room, which was now nearly deserted. A i couple of city clerks, who were probably i working over time, were dining in one corner, and a couple of waiters were gos siping in another; but for these the place was empty. Taking up a newspaper, Mr. Burton whiled away the time ns best lie might; he j had made up his mind to wait ten minutes beyond the completion of the two hours, i and no more; and as the hand of the cof- i fee-room clock slowly approached the point, he felt glad to think how little ehiuiee there was ol the shabby Captain's appearance. The band entered the last five minutes; Mr. Burton laid down his j pajier with a sigh of relief; but as lie did so, the door creaked, the greasy hat, fid- i lowed by the somewhat soddened visage j ol the Captain, was thrust in; a glance i around the room showed that Mr. Burton was there and shutting the door behind him as carefully and cautiously as though he were Guy Fawkes, or a melodramatic bandit, he approached the ex-colonial merchant almost on tiptoe. It was not difficult to see that the Cap tain had been drinking a little more—pos sibly a good deal more, for he was well seasoned in that respect; for,, even if his bleared eyes had not told as much, his husky voice would have been sufficient. Exceedingly impressive was, or was meant to lie, his hoarse whisper, as he said: "All right Mr. Burton. I'm ago ing to clear oft' old debts now for 1 am a man who never forgets a benefit or loses sight ol a friend. Come out fur a mo ment.'’ He wrung Mr. Burton's hand as he spoke with a warmth which the latter could very well have excused, and then led the way irom the room he had but just so carefully entered. I he court in which tin* tavern was sit uated had one or two blind nooks in it, leading nowhere: and the (’aptain drawing Mr. Burton into one of these, glanced warily around, and then dropping his voice to a still hoarser and still more im pressive whisper—quite audible. In )WeVt‘r, fur his breath came hot on the side of his hearer s face—said: “You are in with the Gulf of Carpentaria anil Northern Aus tralia Bank—are you not?" “I am,” returned Burton, who shud dered at the question, in spite ol his con tempt for the sjieaker. "Then get out, if you can!” hoarsely continued the other. "They are blown on. They will be up in a tree' in two days irom this. Don’t ask me any more but if I owe you any trifle of money, 1 have paid you now. Observe! They. Are. Blown." lie pronounced these last three words as we have given them, as if each word were a sentence, and he accompanied them with three distinct taps of his forefinger upon his reddened nose.
