On the day prel : , Ws, he had.called in'a few of his creditors and asked of then:tan extension. If this were nit I given, it would be impossible for him to keel:. on longer. than a few weeks. The spirit which moXt . of his creditors.-had received the unexpected announcement that he was in dti t &ohms, gave him little to hope. He was fp I have 'another interview with them during the day. ' From that, as it would exhibit the suit of a night's reflection upnn the minds of his creditors, he would be able to see clea t , his chances- of being sustained' in busitteis. 7 rl I He awaited the hour with neryous'ansiety.-11- When it arrived, and the few creditors called! is had assembled, he saw little in their faeo Ito give him hope. The first who spLke oft plainly was Elder. "I gentlemen," he said, firmly, "am tit posed to all extensions. If a mart cannot 1, as heCgoes, I think he bad better wind up.' 1,1 "If all do not agree in this matter, it will be no use to attempt extending Mr: Carlton' time," remarked one of .the creditors, wht I thought and felt as did Elder, but was not wil ling to Come out so plainly. That is verytrue," said a third. "e, 3. partial eftension will be of no' use." 0 The heart of poor Carlton almost, L . ceased I ;-; beat. "Have you any objection to retiring for few minutes 7" said_N.r. Highland to the debi or. " withdraw, certainly," returned Mi. Carltoneeltd - left the room. " My own view, gentlemen," said Mr. High land; " is, that we ought to grant all thatis asked. Mr. Carlton's business is good; and lie will get over his present difficulties easily,* we only assist him a little. We should lie just, as man towards man ; and this I do nit think we shall be in this vase, unless we colt sider Carlton as well as ourselves. Ile is in honc4 man, and an houest man in 'difficulties is always entitled to consideration." " That is all very well. But when a min gives his note payable at a certain day, lie ought to be very sure that he will be able (o !take it up. • Creditors arc entitled to-sonde consideration as well. as debtors. The cry poor debtor' is soon raised, but who, I wow der,' thinks of the poor creditor ? I, for otti, am not prepiired to extend." This was said by-Elder.` " for me," spoke up another, "I never take but one view of 'matters, like this. JO think I will do better by renewing, I am ready !to do so ; if by winding up the party now I. On do better, I go for winding up. • I have co:0- fidenet in Carltoe's integrity. I believe he means well. But can he get through? thatias the question." " i believe he can," said Mr. highland. " And I doubt it," returned Elder. . 4 " Ought we not to- consider him as well is 'ourselves ?" .urged Mr. Highland. -He lt,es 'worked very hard for the last ten years, Os hard as any one of us, and has been as anxioits to secure a conneterice for his family as ir e bare been. We should feel for him al well Ats for, ourselves. It would be but a trifle fir ps to lose ail our claims, in comparison to the'4- teir ruin, to him that would follow out ate . prosecution of them. We could bear ii.o l lose ten thousand:dollars apiece, but could bear the loss of all he has. I hope every ri4ii here will suffer his better feelings to beeo*te active in - this matter. Let us think of dus family. If that will not influence us, lets think of our own families, and imagine thn threatened with the same evil that now threet en the family of Mr. Carlton. It is no 'Hitt thine gentlemen, , let me tell you, to bre4k down a man who is struggling to sustain MM. self for the sake of those who are dear to It is no light tfdiag to extinguish the briiirt hearth fire, and scatter those who have gather ed for years around it." In the eager pursuit of wealth men's heaths become incrusted over, and they seem to Itise lall regard for each other's personal conditifin. It requires, something more than usual to brit& up the inerustatioh. The word ! of Mr. H' land had the effect to do this with more t n one of Canton's creditors ; even Elder did Oot reply to what be said, but this was more ftm shame than any other feeling. • It ivrather a hard cue, , you must yoitr self confeis," remarked one. of those preso, to lave money thai ; you fully expected to #e - ceivii_and cut use tb advantage, locked upiTor two or three Yam. • ‘, 71 grant 211044 hut 'would it not be a mita hiider case for .'Oarltotrto be broken up tot and branch?

" I never make bad, shipments," he nould sometimes say. " I never consign to doubtful ) agents.'l A man like Mi. Elder is rarely permitted to go throtigh life without a practicable conviction that he is in the hand of We' who governs all ,events. It is rarely that such -a -one does not become painfully consuiting in the end that hu man prudence is as nothing. The first thing that j occurred to check the' confident spirit or' Mr. Elder, was the-loss of a ship and cargo under circumstances that gave the under-writers! a fad plea for not paying the risk. He sued. and was east. The loss was twenty-tive thousand,dollars. A few weeks after, tiews-eame that a slitp ment to 'the South American coast had result ed in a loss. From that time every thing; seemed to go wrong. His -adventures foued-al glutted market, and his return cargoes a de pression of prices. If lie held on to a thing-in the hope of better rates, - prices would go down, until, in a desperate mnod, tie would Bed ; then they would go up steadily. The time was when he confined himself strictly to legitimate trade,, But a mania t 4 speculation now took hold of hineand urged him ou to ruin. Ile even ventured into the bewildering precincts of the stock markets, lured by the hope 'of splen- . did results. Here he stood upon ground that soon erninbled beneath! -his feet.. A loss of twenty or thirty thousand dollars cured him of his folly?, and he turned with a sigh to his counting room, to digest, with care and prudent forethought, some sate operation in Lis regular kbusine.ss. I \•But the true balance of his mind was lost. He could not consider krith ealradeEs the basi -1 ness in hand. A false 1:110110:wati the eonse sequence. Loss instead of profit was the un fortunate result. Seven years from teat day Mr. Elder op psed an arrangement with Mr. Carlton, Which should regard the debtpr as well as the credit or, ho himself found it impossible to prociie for all . bis - heaarayments. For some time he had kei&his above water by making sac rifices, put the end of this came. After; a sleepless night the merchant started one motining for his store, oppressed with the sad conViction that before the day closed his fair fame would be tarnished. As ho walked 1 along Broadway Mr. Carlton chine to his side with a 4heerful salutation. Mr. C. was now a large creditor instead of a debtor.. On that very day, bills in his Ifavor had matured to the amount of five thbutand dollars ; and these Elder could not pay.; The recollection of this made it almost impossible for him to reply•to the pleasant observations of his companion. Vividly., as is it had occurred yesterday, came up before his mind the circumstance that had transpired a few yea* pre i. usly. lie remem bered how eagerly !Le had sought, from the !merest selfish inotiveS, to break down Mr. Carl ton and throw him helpless upon the world, Land. how near he was to aecomplis.hing the merchant's total overthrow. Suet recollections !drove from his xait:l the hope that for a mo !meut had pre.sentediitself of enlisting Mr. Call , ton's good feelings, and securing him as a friend in the trial through which 'ho was about . to pass.. Several times during-the walk towards Pearl street he was on the point of, breaking the mat ter to-Mr. C. ; 'but either his heart failed him, or his companion ,Made some remark to which he was compelled 0 reply. At length they separaied without any allusion by Mr. Elder to the subject, on . lribich he was so desirous of speaking. He had not the courage to utter a word. - But this was only postponing. for a very brief period, the evil day. Several remittances were anxiously looked for that morning. He l i broke the sealin , letter after letter, with tremb;ing anxiety Alas ! the mail brought him no aid. • His list hope was gone. Noth ing now remained or him but to turn his face bravely to the threatening storm • and bear up agaii.st its fury. Fur houruhe debated the question as to what , course it wag for him to pursue. At one 1 1 time he thought 4 leaving all in ignorance of his condition, until the notary's protest should startle them fronii their ignorance. Then he thought it would' be best to .noti.y the holders of papers due on that day that it would not be i taken up. • It.wa.l one o clock be'ore be could I calmly resolve on What course to take.. Then! it seemed to him best to give notice of his con-1 dition. He prepaied brief notes to all, but Mr. Carlton first. His heart failed him when - he attempted to write his name. Vividly, as if I it had occurred hilt the day previous, came up before his mind all the circumstances. attend ant .upon that geUtleman's appeal to his Bred- , ' itors. His cheekibunted when be remembered the position he bad assumed in that affair. II But, even though such were his feelings,• when be came to! - de.spatch the notes he bad prepared, he could only find coura g e to send the one w ri tten to Mr. Carlton.

Elder turned slowly to his desk and took therefrom sundry notes of hand in his favor at Various dates from six to twelve months, and endorsed them payable to Carlton, who intim ately gave him a check fur eight thousand dol lars and left the store. A clerk was instantly despatched to ; the bank, and then Mr. Elder sunk into a chair, halt Btu pified. Re could hardly believe his senses un til the cancelled notes were placed in his bands. Rebuked and humble in spirit, the anxious merchant retired from his counting room and „cought his home. Ills heart felt lighter time it had been for many days, mid yet' hei could feel its weight ip him bosom. .1n his extremity aid had come, but from a quarter least dream ed of—from one who, in a like extremity, had asked him for consideration, but asked in vatn. Ou the next morning, Mr. Elder Went to his place of business with feelings ,but little less troubled, Can they hid been on the day before. ;His paymehts were lighter, but his means were, for the first time exhausted. ' The best he could do would be to borrow; but he already Oved heavily for borrowed money, and was ru.t pertain that to go farther was practieable. He thought of Mr. Garton: but, every, feeling of ;his heart forbade him to seek further aid from. - I deserve no consideration thCre, and I cannot ask it," he murmured as hepursued his way towards his stOre. The f i rst thing that met his eye on entering his counting room, was a pile of-ship letter. There had been an ar rival from alparaiso. He broke, the seal of the tirst one he took .up, with 'eagerness.— Thank God!" was- his almost immediate ex e'aination. It was from one of his captains, and contained drafts for fifteen thousand dol lars.. It also informe4 hiin that the ship t.. 4 arah, commanded by said ; captain, would sail for home in a week, with - a return cargo of bides and specie attiountiOg to thirty thousand dol lars. The voyage had been profitable beyond expeetati n. Elder had just finished re.adlng the letter, when Mr.;Carkon came in. ISeizing the kind hearted merchant by the hand, sand prossing it hard,. he said, with einotion4- " Mr. Carlton, you have sated me ! Ah! sir —this would be to me a farpeppier moment, if, sevea years ago, when yogi *ere in trouble, I I had as generously 'ailed you." " Let the past sleep in peke," returned Mr. Carlton.
