The failure of this eminent firm, whose repnta
tatlon was national, has sent, a shiver through Bnan
clal circle! here anil In Europe.
It is said the-. London house stands flfnVT So
much the Oetter. It Is understood In banking cir
cle that tlir lalli ro Involves a hundred millions
more or leas. Wo fear it Is but the forerunner ;0t a
flnaneial Hurry that will Carry rnia to every com
mercial centre! and depression to every marketable
commodity In the country.
It Is not so mnoh the collapao of hanks and bank.
Ing houses, aa well aa of leading firms In every
branch of trade caused hy leises incarred through
mis house, that will bring lh Is about as tho loss of
confidence by the maaaea In moneyed Institutions
all over the land, and the withdrawal of surplus and
deposited captUI, which, If left intact, always In a
crisis like the present, preserves the equilibrium.
All firms of In vestment will suffer heavily for
some time to come Hallway enterprises that are
unfinished will romatn so for years, and even
necessary repairs on finished and running made bo
deferred and thus Jeopardize the safety of tho trav
elling pnblio.
The Inevitable depression in stocks of all kinds,
the high price of gold, the exorbitant ratea of Inter
est. Will without a drmht diminish priviHv th nT.
ume bustnees transacted and leave hevy stccka of
mercnaBdlae unsold to be carried' over tojanotlw
caaoD.
Crude, our product already lying preetrnte, wt'.l
suffer yet more from the present pressure, and
what with lourth aand aud money tight, will have
a hard run to live the oomlna tali and winter.
Let us live la hopes that the flnaneial horrors o '
'67 ale not to be repeated. '

The Great Failure Yesterday.
Jay Cooke has gone down. Tbe news ol
tbe suspension of bis tbree great banking
bouses located respectively at New York,
Philadelphia and Washington was carried J
to tbe country over tbe wires yesterday of
terooon, and tbe excitement consequent
therefrom lo beyond description. Tbe fail-
are of Jay Cooke fc Co., causes of course
others to suspend. Reports of tbe fsuspen-
sion of the First National Bank ol Washing
ton, also of 2. W. Clark & Co., Pbiladel
pble, and Itlcbard Schell and Robinson &
Snydell come to band. Wbat will be Ibe
extent of the effects of tbls terrible disaster
uo one oaa ut tbls ties estimate. Previous
to yesterday Jay Cooke almoct might have
been called tbe nation's backer. Tbe con.
slernation all over tbe country caused by
Ibe failure can be imagined. While we are
not an alarmist, tbe statement of Jay Cooke
tbat tbe company is ab!o to take cara of all
its liabilities, Is precissly wbat is dona
whea tbe great falluro Is drat onnounoed.
It is pleaiant to nopo tbr.t Jay Ccoke ?iil
come out all right. Cut wo .'car the worst
bas not yet been dlc3i03ed. Tbs North
Puclf 3 Railway Stock and bis speculations
In good, we have no doubt, have brought
him to bis presernt condition.
Tbo worst misfortune named In our dis
patches tbis morning iu coceequence of tbe
failure, is tbe probable suspension of tbe
Lile Insurance Companies wHb v.'bicS CocUo
is connected. Tbe National .'nsurano
Company, ot which be was tbo founder, lb
probably tbe most severely hurt.
But the failure of Jay CooLe&Co., we
believe, ubould bo attributed to specula
tlon.
An extraordinary thing happened to a
gentleman in Dubuque tbe other day. He
was walking on tbe plattorra behind tbe
eating house at tbe I. C. R depot enjoy.
Ing tbe gentle evening twilight. Before
blm was a green, scum-covered slough,
which tbe gentleman mistook for a verdant
meadow. Be stepped on it for the purpose
ol taking a little Broil, and found himsoif in
eight foe', of water He was fisbeil out the
wettast and ellailoat of man, andlt'ij sup
posed will boreatter bold ''fresh fields atH
pastures new'' In natural abhorrence.
JSyOyotera served up In every style at
tbe Pe trsluiim Exchange Hotel.
The failure of Ja7 Cooks & Co. will be
likely to influence tbe oil market to some
exleot, aa well as every other branch ol
trade.
Aa an Illustration ot tbe widespread use
of a certain popular title, It is related that
a gentleman recently steppad lalo a saloon
In Denver, and cried out in a loud, cheery
tone, "Hello! come, Professor, take a
drink." Sis men sitting in tbo saloon at
once arosa and oame forward, while a boot
block, vboee stand was just outside tbe door
and a passing corn doctor smilingly accept
ed tbe Invitation, and stepped in.
Tbat -'honesty lo tho best policy" may
be exemplified by tbo following little Inci
dent: A man at Bolmor.t, Mo., sold to b
mill owner a saw log, which proved to bo
hollow. Aj be sold it tot a eoyod log bo
voluntarily went and gavo baok tbe price,
and houlirg It to bij cwo yard chopped It
up for flrcv.'ood. In this operation bo found
ten Cvo dollar gold places which somebody
bad te oro ted It.
A religious contemporary tells bow sys
tematic penny-giving recently saved a
church In Wisconsin which was embarrass
ed with n dent of $10,000 tbat it would
have been Impossible to pay in tlie ordinary
way. Tho psalor divided tbo debt 'into
the penny shares to be paid daily for five
hundred days and it was liflsd forthwith.
