The AnDOUßßeellltellt last Thursday that the New York, Philadelphia, and washington Banking houses of Jay Cooties Co. had suspended' caused a rev • erisb anxiety throughout the whole country. People wondered what would co me next. Jay Cooke has been very prominently identified with all of the Gorernuient's heavy financial trausac- LlOlO5 for the last ten or twelve years,'and when his pecuniary' troubles were flashed ' along the wires on last Thursday noon, i t was believed by many that the Nation. ai Treasury was the heaviest loser, But happily the belief did not prove to be wei 1- fo an ded, for later in the day Secre tary Richardson caused it to be stated that his Department would lose little or no thing through Mr. "Cooke's mb,sfor. vines. The latter believes that hia w ags equal his liabilities, and attributes h3g present financial embarrassment to ice nnproductiveness of a large number of shares of Railroad stock which he was c arrying. On the other hand, many ixk i fere that Mr. Cooke is hopelessly gone, cancially, and that his liabilities are in e y.cst:aQ of his assets fully twenty millions of dollars._ Since tlie \above was in type we notice tcg: a great panic prevailed in Wall Street on last Friday, all resulting from tce Cuoke failures, and that no less than twenty banks suspended:on that day at sz,r,oas points througout the country, t , r,:al-e of their connegtion with either e or the other of the great banker's Lc Millinery Goods in large variety at Rochester, very cheap. sirs.

IDA ERSKINE. A Sin gular Condition of Affairs. The recent failures hi this county- La brought about a singular condition alrairs So many men lost nearly their entire possessions by endorsing for those who failed, that it is now with great difficulty that one' neighbor can be induced to go ou the bond of another Who is desirous of taking out letters of' administration on some dead man's es tate. Persons who have been selected as guardians too, have no little trouble in getting others to become sureties for them for the money that will likly fall into their hands. As to getting one man to go on another's note in bank, that is nearly out of the question. To be cau tions is commendable, but we are afraid that the general timidity now is not only i nconvenient, but is working a good deal of injurTbesides. A Large Onion.—Mr. Smith Craven, who resides in Darlington township, this county, raised from the 'iced this year a red onion which weighs .twelve ounces. We hope -to see that "tear bringer" at our 14.7 this week.. ==l —Hon A. J.

Most of our soldiers served in the Army of the Pstomee, —The failure of Jay Cooke t Co., has not only created something like a panic among the bankers of thkoountry, but business men everywhere, who are using but a small amount of capital are grow ing nervous over the situation. —The U.

We have no doubt but that a good square meal can be had at either place for the asking—and fifty cents. —They allow damages in Hancock county, West Va. for sheep killed by dogs. At the last County Court, August 25113, John Cam bell received $39.33, A. F. aid M. V. Hindman $l9, William Mc- Donald $3O, Charles Allison $2l, and Al fred Chapman $l6. We are decidedly in favor of making the owners of vicious and sheep killing canines, come down with cash enough to offset an damages sustained by anybody through the "cussedness" of their neigh b3r's brutes. —Won't tne ooys enjoy nutting this fall? There never was a time when the trees hung fuller than now of hickory nuts, walnuts, butternuts, (tc. And such is the news from all parts.

We interilewed him of the horn a few weeks ago at Pittsburgh, gave the protu- berance a twist and a pull, and aie satis fied that nature planted it there. " Au Old Patriarch Gone.—Oae of the very oldest men in the country died last week at Evansville (Ind). The Jountai of that city says: "The venera ble Isaac Sluder, better known as Old Father Sluder, who had attained the ex traordinary age of one hundred and ten years and six months, is dead. Born on the Yadkin river, in North Carolina, I March 30, 1763, he removed to Kentucky when a youth, and raised two crops of corn on the ground where Richmond now stands. Later in life he removed to In diana Territory, and where Salem now stands he made his first camp, cutting away pawpaw bushes for the purpose. With other settlers there, he built and lived in a stockade, and lived the life of a frontiersman, half soldier, half farmer, until advancing civilization drove back the savages, and in his old age, yet many years ago, he secured and enjoyed peace. -He lived in Salem and in that vicinity untii'a few years ago, when he came to this city atid made• his borne with his grandson, William Sluder, the well known private policeman.

"And yet we are not hap py." - —The Presbyterians of Roche4ter; are at present devising ways , and means to erect a church of that denomination In that town. —The reunion and banquet of the Army of the Cumberland are over and Pitts burghers have commenced to "sober up again." —A belligerent individual of the tec tonic persuasion, ; by the name of Leise, who figured as a witness in a case before 'Squire Marks, of Rochester, on last Sat urday created quite a sensation by evinc ing a disposition ,to run things to suit himself, or slaughter some nn e in the at tempt. —We think it is fair to presume That the number of fair ones who will assem ble at` Beaver this week to witness the fair, providing the weather is fair, will be fairly immense; and we hope that they will all fare well. —Through the folly of Miss Guidance, a blind man, Dv the name of Kerr, was lad astray from the narrow path and fell through the R.

The unfortu nate man hails, we believe, from North Bridgewater. —The hat trade in Rochester is in a very demoral!zed condition at present. Mrs. Ashbaugh, who lives near the hta tion, in that town, entertained some company last Friday evening and the male portion of the assemblage left their hats on the rack in the hall on entering. As they were about to depart they dis covered that the rack had been most ef fectually divested of everything in the shape of a hat. It is now considered very impolite to take off your hat in that locality, and any one who does, is brand ed as a "green 'un' by the knowing ones. —A certain boot and shoe dealer of Rochester received a call from an unusu ally early customer one morning last week, and purchased a pair of boots for seven dollars and tendered him a fifty dollar bill in payment for the same, but as the man of boots and shoes did not have enough currency in the drawer• to change the bill, and the banks not yet being open, he just, stepped across the street to the store of a fellow-merchant who accepted the bill and furnished the required amount of change %bleb, in turn was handed to the early purchaser. It was shortly afterward discovered that the fifty dollar bill was a base counterfeit and returned to the boot and shoe dealer, who was obliged to become the loser, as the man who left the bill was an entire stranger and has not since had time to The On‘servative man hearing of this transaction, supposed as a matter of course that it was .jtu3t gotten up " for it mathematical problem, and priding him:- self on his attainment in that line, he lost no time in replying through bis pa ' per last week to the effect that the boot and shoe dealer was victimized to the amount ofjust fifty dollars and the boots; but that merchant. kas counted his cash account over several times and says he fails to see it in the same light as the Con servative man does, and thinks it very ev ident that the man who furnished that - solution would do better to count "seven out." Remnants of best prints at 8 cents, at Hi bbard's Rochester. sept24-2w Beaver County Oil nen 13_ Luck.—The Messrs. Darragh, ofSharon, who have been operating among the oil wells of Butler county recently, received a telegram last Friday informing them that the workmen at one of their wells had just tapped a 600 barrel well. Of course the Messrs. D. lost no time in going hence to see their prodigy, but as they have not returned, we are unable to say whether the figures of the telegram have been verified or not.

The Geneva Award —F ar ts About the Great Saud.—The bond for $15,500,000, the amount for the Genera award is held by tha Secretary of State in that department, and is not placed for safe keeping in the Treasury, as many supposed. The bond is made payable to the order of the Secretaty of State, and of course,. no one else could procure any money on It. So far as danger of it be ing stolen is concerned, officials at Wash ington, have no fear, as it would be of no use to the thief. The bond is for the largest amount of money ever issued by any Government in a,single transaction. Photographs of,the bond and certificate of deposit were completed at the Treas ury Department last week, - and copies sent to the President and each member of the Cabinet. HERE AND THERE- BY Z. TYPO. Csraeolleatioa--Conanaeats olf she Pima—The Beayer Argus is to be uni ted with the Radical, and the consolida ted paper will be hereafter issued by the Beaver County Printing Company under the name of the Beaver ABGIIS AND RAD ICAL. Hon. J. S. ROtan will have edito rial control of the piper, and Capt. Wey and Of the Aztor;rs takes charge of the bus iness dePartrneat. The Republicans of Beaver county, as well as the .gentlemen more leomecitately concerned in the eli te:prise, are cer tainly to be congratula ted upon this arivagment; **alma& as it cannot MI to prove advantageous to both alike. Whore two political papers attempt to live on patronage that is • only equal to the edequate Support of one, they are.apt to become hindrances rather than helps to the organizatioa they pro fess to represent, for the reason that they are mostly compelled rely to a greater er less extent upon. aid furnished usually by men whdse personal interests and schemes they are in turnexpected to pro mote by every means in their power. In this way thiy generally become organs of individ u als instead of reliable expo nents of the political faith they profess to have espoused. Public journals that have no higher aim than to advance per sonal interests and aspirations are often a prolific Source of strife and dissentiou , in the ranks of the organization they profess to serve, for the reason that they are generally made thee onduits through which all the spleen of rival factions is poured upon the public to the serious detriment of the cause to which they clihn to be devoted. We by no means accuse the two tournals above named with having descended to this level, but the unseemly controversies that some times took place between them indicated but too plainly a kind of rivalry from which the common enemy was always glad to profit. The Republicans of Bea ver county have reason to rejoice, there fore, that the consolidation has been at fected. and all difficulty on this score re ino/ved. There are other counties in western Pennsylvania where a similar arrangment would prove highly benefi cial, and where we would be glad to see it adopted.— Washington Reporter. —The Beaver .Argus and Beaver Radi cal have been consolidated and will here after be published under the name if the Beaver ARGUS AND RADICAL. Hon. J. S. Ratan will assume editorial control of the paper, and Mr. Weyand, former editor of the Argus, Fin be business manager. This consolidates two papers that were, somewhat hostile during the late campaign, and will doubtless tend to consolidate and strengthen the Republi can pariy in that county. Senator Ru tan's long exderieuce in public life and thorough aoquaintance with the politi elanS of the State, phcaliarly lit him for a political editor, and the ABOUS AND RAD ICAL will certainly wield a potent influ ence, not only id its own county, but throughout the State.—Carlisle Herald.

Both of the above gentlemen were for merly Of this county, and we make no doubt they-will publish a very readable paper.— Cart oil Free Press. —The Beaver Radical and the Argus have been consolidated, with the Hon. James IS. Rutan as editor and Mr. Wey and, of the Argus as business manage . From this It would seem that a truce has been declared between the rival Republi can factious of Beaver county. Senator Ratan, wbo again returns to the editori al desk, possesses much experience in public affairs, and has always shown courtesy and moderation in the discus sion of political questions,—Harrisbvrg Patriot. —The Beaver Radical and the Argus have been consolidated.

The 'Squire came to the window and enquired what was wanting. The reply was that they wanted him to marry them. .` Wait until morning," said the 'Squire. "My'. God t no—we can't wait !" said one of the party. The 'Squire dressed, went to.the hotel, and in a few moments four persons were made two.—East Liverpool Gazette. The Monongahela Republican says: The young men of that most enterprising town of California, have formed a Li brary Association and have already funds on hand to begin a good work . A public library has special claims as an educational institution, to the moral and material support of a town. The, college - is only the first stage of educa tion; it but prepares the mind to acquire the knowledge from books which the books oontain. And the library exerts a highly moral influence, not only as a necessary incident of education, but by p l rescuing the young men fr m the haunts of idleness . We therefore ope the citi zens of California will tronize with abed purses their Library Association. But indeed this admonition is scarcely , needed to the Californians, for they have and do still exhibit a wonderful public spirit-- . -oiae which few towns in the west equal.

The winter passed without event, exoept the breaking out of the scurvy, which, however, was unattended by se vere symptoms. Plentiful supplies of walrus liver for food were obtained from the natives, and to this diet is attributed the, mildness of the disease. In the spring two boats were built of Aida- pine boards taken from the cabin of the Polar-, is. 14 these the whole party embarked as soon as the ice opened, and sailed sOuthwaxd. On the 3d of June they sighted Cape York, and on the 22d of the same month werepicked up by the Ra vens craig.
