Their reasons for this short posponement than are con-
tanned in the above. The MANAGER would, howev-

sued few persons, if any, anticipated IN the least the
late panic in the money market which has almost para
lived every kind of business, and has caused sucn SIN
gular and unprecedented stagnatlon in trade Inc
distress of capitalists and moned institutions has nor
been confined to any single state in our confederscy
but it has been severely felt from one extremity OF he
country to the other and has been general IN OF
the Oldest and wealthiest foreign countries And
will not be considered matter OF surprise, that the
same causes which have induced so recently the post,

have similar effect on one ofmuch greater magnitude.
But il is hopea that happy change for these reverses
