The Dakota newspapers say that Dakota will raise about 40,000.000 bushels of wheat this year. The crop last year amounted to 18100,000. There is at leat a "core of states men who are petting: ready to loudly respond "here,'' when the call fcr a dark horse is made at Chicago. The colored delegates to the Re publican National Convention will, it is said, present the name of ex Senator Iiruce as a candidate for Vice President Gov. L'LEViLANn, of New York, has declared in furor of Free-trade. This is evidence that h'.s Excellency has discovered that his boom for President has busted. The Philadelphia JVme thinks that "the Democrats who threaten to read others out ol the party don't know how to read." Many a true word is gpoken in jest. Miss Anna liuskbee, Superintend ent of schools for the laat three years in Potter county, has been unani mously re-elected for a second term. This is a feather in the cap of the champions of the sex. Senator Camp.kox, who has been in Europe since last summer, is ex pected to arrive at home this week. Of course some of the nervous poli ticians are dreadfully afraid that the sole object of his return is to run the Chicago Convention. It looks very much as if the Dem ocratic leaders had concluded to take Watterson's advice "Iet Penn sylvania go to the Devil and kick Randall and his protection followers out of the party. They must have revenge for the defeat of Morrison's Free-trade bill. The moral of the Kilkenny cats, who foupht until there was nothing but a couple of tails as mementos of the scrimmage, should just now possess a deep interest for the De mocracy who are rending each other in the battle between the Free-traders and Protectionist. Tee Cincinnati Inquirer, (Dein.) heads an article from Washington, -Loud call for the fool-killer," If that journal's call is answered, and the fool-killer gets started in the Democratic party, there will not be much of a crowd left to vote for Free-trado in November. Convention will formulate a free trade platform, and that the Ran dalliets will have to do one of two things : They will have to swallow it or secede. The till to erect a territorial gov ernment in Alaska has passed both Houses, and will probably be signed by the President We shall there fore learo before long whether the resource? of this far off portion of our possessions are as well worth the attention of capitalists as has of late been represented. The New York buinss men have called a mass meeting in favor of the nomination of President Arthur. There is no doubt that Mr. Arthur is very strong amoag the business men of New York and other cities, but in the rural districts of his own and other States, he lacks the warm snpport of the people. Trade is dull, and manufacturers are not coining money rapidly, but there is no danger of a panic. Th country is too full of produce, goods 'and money to get up a genuine rTM ........ .1 i V r. l. scare, me situation cj v um ent from what it was when the fail ure of Jay Cook entailed wide spread ruin on the entire country. The objurgations poured out on the head of Congressman Randall, ofthis State, by tho tax-reduction (Free-trade) journals of his own party, prove how deeply they take to Iip.irt the defeat of the Morrison bill. They are determined to make J him and his friends eat crow or drive j them out of the party. "Threatened men live long," eays the adage. The only refuge of the Democra cy appears to be Mr. Tilden. No other candidate ferns to be regarded with positive favor. Meanwhile, the sly old fox plays coy, but steadily keeps his weather eye on the coin ing Republican Canveution. When it has made its nomination, and the old gentleman has scanned the field, his answer will be yea, or nay, ac cording to the outlook. Captaiu Chauncey F. Mitchell, so well known in this county, and formerly editor of the Democratic journal of this place, lias severed his connection with the Westmoreland Democrat, and is now devoting his energies to canvassing that county as a candidate for the Legislature. As editor, publisher and compositor Captain Mitchell has devoted the best years of his life to furthering the interest of the Democracy in est- ern Pennsylvania, and has richly earued recognition at their hands. He would make a creditable repre sentative of the rock-ribbed Democ racy of Westmoreland, and he has our best wishes for his success. As it daily becomes clearer that the main contest in the National Convention is to be between Blaine and Arthur, it also becomes evident that there are a great many strong dark horses being held in reserve, in case a break comes. In a number of States much attention is being be stowed on second-choice candidates, and attempts are being made to cul tivate ?uthusiasm for them. There is no evidence, however, of any one of these dark horses having any par ticular strength outside of his own locality, and no present probability of any one of them falling heir to the strength of either of the leading candidates. Convention, which meets in Chicago on the 3d of June, can not do better for the party, nor for the peace and dignity of this Nation, than to give the voters of this country for Presi dential candidates tho names of Ben jamin Harrison, of Indiana, and Jo seph lw Hawley, ot uonneciicuu Dayton (Ohio) Journal (Rep.): We have held and do hold that John Shermian is the man who can most certainly cover the point9 of success in New York and in Ohio. There is no factional fight against him in New York, and the Inde pendents will support him. And he is several thousand votes stronger in Ohio than any man who has been named for the Presidency. Minnesota Tribune (Rep.): As all Republicans have settled down on Robert Lincoln for the second place on the ticket, would it not be bunch ing matters to some extent to take Harrison, ef Indiana, for the first place? Still, Grant and Colfax, who represented the same States, only in inverse order, made a tolerably suc cessful run in lGS, and the geo graphical question was never raised against them.

TROUBLE AMONG NEV "VOKK FI-XAXCIEUS. Over Half a Dozen Brokerage Firms and the Metropolitan Bank Compelled to Suspend Operations. New York, May 14. Since the memorable "Black Friday" Wall street has scarcely experienced such a series of financial disasters as to day. The reverberation of the crash caused by the fall of the Marine Bank and the firm of Grant & Ward had not died away an the financial air when yesterday the cloud of another storm began to lower in the shape of trouble at the Second Na tional Bank, but late last night this passed away. A second cloud of disaster, however, broke oyer the city this morning, and thick and fast came the announcements of suspensions. The scene at the Stock Exchange was one of intense excitement. There was a rush to sell stocks, partly for the account of brokers who soon an nounced their inability to meet their engagements. Before 10:15 a. m., Nelson Robinson fc Co., and Goffe fc Randall announced their suspension. The suspension ol the Metropolitan National Bank capped the climax. Them followed the sus pensions of O. M. Begart & Co., J. C. Williams & Co., Hatch & Foote and Donnell, Lawson & Simpson. The failure of Hotchkiss, Burnham & Co., was also announced during the afternoon.

A New England Fratricide. While the financial storm was raging with such fury in New York last week, business elsewhere throughout the country was not in the least disturbed. This speaks well for the soundness of our banks and banking system, and proves the confidence of the public in them. Senator McPhersos, of New Jer sey, it is reported, has declined to permit his friends to urge his nomi nation as tho Democratic candidate for President, because, as he frankly says, he thinks a Democrat cannot be elected this year. The shrewd Senator does not care for empty Lon rs. The Cincinnati Time Star says that the man who goes to Chicago thinking he has the vote of Ohio in his pocket, will gel the conceit knocked out of him on the first From the days when Washington was a candidate down to the pres ent time, personal vilification has been the weapon resorted to by pol iticians against prominent Presiden tial candidates, and yet, in no one single instance has it effected its ob ject. Still, politicians apparently will not profit by experience. Men not far past middle age will recall the denunciation and ridicule of Boston, May 13. At an early hour this morning Walter Bradshaw fatally shot his father Thomas C. Bradshaw at their home, No. 108 Pleasant street, Cambridge. The father until recently lived away from his family and for seveu or eight years has not contributed to their support. A few weeks ago he return ed to them and has been living with them since, having good employ ment. This morning Walter, who is twenty-three years old, went to his father's room while the latter was asleep, awakened him and told hiu his mother wanted some money for groceries. The father jumped from his bed and pushed young Bradshaw towards the door. WaU ter drew his pistol and warned his father to keen away from him. His father, Walter claims, again, started toward him, when a sudden move ment of his hand caused the pistol to go off without his intention. The ball passed through his fathers left lung and is imbedded near the spine His condition is very critical. Wal ter gave himself up and was com mitted to jail without bail. Walter had been supporting the family while his father was away, but it was not known that there had been any strong ill feeling between them. Hold KobWkry and Murder. New York, May 15. At noon to day Edward Jewel, a school boy, coing to his home in a ilat in Har lem, found two men in a hallway standing over a third, whom they said was drunk.

Mr. i Blaine is strong in the poDular heart; the men. He took them to the sta tion house, where they were recog nized as Jim Grady and Mike Hearn notorious characters. While they were standing before the desk a THK lhiladelphia Lecord thinks ; ,ike M inent he has dead man was brought in The there is no statesman ol proved j inn. nnt., -s mftMMnn. prisoners turned pale, and Grady Amos R. Eno, the father of Jehn C Eno, the late president of the bank, contributed the lion's share. In or der to accommodate the rush that was expected the bank wa3 opened at9J o'clock. Insmediately a stream of several hundred people began to pour in over half of them being la dies. Some of them came to depos it, but could not on account of the crowd which was there to draw out their deposits. All those who wished to draw their deposits were given them. Secretary of the Treasury Folger came to the bank in the morning and congratulated Mr. Eno and the President on the successful termina tion of the bank's troubles. William Walter Phelps, one of the Directors, said that the bank was opened early in the morning to prevent a panic. In regard to to the supension of the Metropolitan National Bank, it is known that the President, George I Seney has been one of the most prominent speculators on the Stock Exchange. A prominent Director of the Me tropolitan Bank says emphatically that the depositors will be paid in full. He says that the Directors have.gone through all the securities ol the institution, and, throwing out all that may be classed as in any way doubtful have more than suffi cient to p;y the depositors. He says further that the suspension is solely due to the fact that the depoi itors throughout the country having become scared through the attacks on the President of the hank. Mr. Senev, had inaugurated a general withdrawal of the deposits. This fact, coupled with the general dis trust engendered lrono the cntica. situation in speculative circles caus ed the bank to suspend. The bank is a debtor at the clearing House for 8500,000. O. M. Bogart fc Co. have assigned to John Wheeler; preferences, SSG, 000. Their failures is considered most important, as thev have been large dealers in commercial paper. They dealt somewhat in privileges and were considered a solid house All stocks guaranteed by Nelson Robinson & Co. are a good delivery The firm cansisted of Nelson Rob inson, son-in-law of George I. Senev Robert Seney, George I. Seney, Jr, (his two sons ), and Robertson Rod gers. Three members of the firm own seats in the Stock Exchange George I. Seney, Jr., being the only exception. It is reported that Nel son Robinson had disappeared from the city. Hatch & Foote" state that their suspension was caused wholly by the exhaustion of margins, the re fusal of customers to redeem them and their inability to sell stocks' without further sacrifice. The fail ure of Hatch & Foote is likely to involve some country firms, as they held accounts of many private bankers outside of New York, as well as of individuals in the West and South. Donnell, Lawson & Simpson, were large dealers in county, water and city bonds. The firm in their notice of the failure, say: "Owing to the general panic prevailing, we deem it hest to suspend until we can see where we stand." Folger telegraphed to Washington to take up bonds of the 127th call on presentation. The bonds are not due until June 20. The Secretary further promises that such steps shall be taken as will relieve the present situation. The Commercial-Advertiser says : "It is roported on excellent authori ty that a serious rupture took place yesterday between Jay Gould and Russel Sage. In consequence ofthis of deposit bearing interest at N. Y., ' per annum, not excess of 75 percent j ot the security on bills receivable deposited, except in case . of United States bonds, aad said certificates shall be received and paid in settle ment of balances at the Clearing House. The members of the committee present and the Clearing House de clined to express any opinion what ever in regard to the failure or the financial condition of the Metropoli tan Bank. At 2.45 P. M. money was loaning at 1 per cent, per day. At 4 o'clock this afternoon it was estimated at the Second National Bank that over $500,000 had been paid-out during the rush. A rumor prevails now that the deficit amounts to $4,000,000, and that Amos R. Eno, the father of the President, John C. Eno, paid S3,5()0,0OO, while the Directors made good 500,000 Julian T. Davies, Receiver of Grant & Ward, yesterday stated, before a Court Examiner, that he believed General Grant and his sons were ruined and that they had no part of the firm's property in their posses sion, from nis investigation inus far he believed that the firm owed about 512,449,537 borrowed money due depositors, according to the led ger account ; 227,273 balances of stock transactions, aud S534JG2 due general creditors, including the Ma rine Bank, making a total ot 5lo,- 501,531.

New iork, May lo. lhe Metrop olitan Bank posted a notice on its doors saying that the Bank Exam iners having made an investigation of its aflairs, the bank will resume business at twelve o'clock to-dav. At 9:30 Mr. Scriba stepped outside of the Metropolitan Bank building and directed that the many notices from correspondents informing hold ers of their paper where to have it cashed should be taken down. "I'll take the responsibility," lie 6uid. "I don't want this crowd around here. The bank is all right now and will resume at twelve o'clock.

The Clearing House Committee went into session eariy this morning as soon as it could convene after the announcement of the panie in the street Ihey remained in session until half-past o'clock, when it was announced that it had been de cided net to expel the Metropoli tan Bank from the association. It was ascertained that the shortage of the bank at the Clearing House was in the rjeighborhood of $500,000,and this amount was made good by the day. The following resolution was also passed, which Mr. Camp, the Superintendent, stated was similar to the measure adopted in 1S73, and saved the bauks frem ruin : Resolved, By the banks in this organization that in view ofthe pres ent crisis, for the purpose of sus taining each other and the business community, a committee of five be appointed by the Chair to reeeive Altoosa, May 14.

Five others in the buil ding were wounded, but the extent ol their injuries is not known. The entire building, 75 by 2O0 feet was totally destroyed, and the windows in the shop immediately opposite, where hundreds of men were working were broken. Geo.

The most attractive word in the business vocabula. ryis CHEAP, because the price tells, and everybody tells the price. The merchant whose superior advan tages in trade enables him to otfer a better article, or as good an article for less money than his neighbor has the inside track in the race for business , and as long as the people believe his is " the cheapest store In town," just so long will he lead every other trades man in his line. Famous lor Ldtv Prices, means suc. cess ; notorious for High Prices, means failure. Ak a man more than he thinks a thing is worth and he re. volts, and with many it is an insult. But otfer a man a Bargain, and straightway the purse-strings relax, and you will have a customer on the spot. He leaves the store and tells the first acquaintance he meets of " the Cheapest Store in Town." The best advertis ing medium is a pleased customer. The small profit plan, under intelligent management, never fails. The masses must be attracted, if a large trade is ever to I it realized. The merchant must impress the people with the fact that he can and will serve them best. The man who does the most for the community re ceives the largest share of favors from every member of it. CHEAP is the word, because the price tells, and everybody tells the price. l. m:. woolf, The One-Price CI(tiery Hatter, Furmhr.
