"THE EXPERIMENT"

The Baltimore Gazette has the following re-
marks, induced by the the failure of the Bank
of Washington:
The Washington papers Of this morning con-
tain a notice from the directors of THE Bank
Of Washington, announcing the inability of the
institution to continue specie payments. The
Directors confidently assert" says the adver-
tsement, that the affairs of the Institution are
safe, and capable to meet all its engagements"
But "under the general distrust which prevails
the Bank is reluctantly compelled to declare its
inability longer to discharge its engagements,
for the present, in gold and silver"
The rumor, therefore, which prevailed week
or two ago. was not altogether ridiculous
though it was, and we trust will remain, without
foundation with respect to the District Banks as
a body. According to the annual statement rem
dered to Congress, in January last they were
in excellent condition, considering the state of
the times. But what strength can be sure OF
outstanding such tempest as is now raging?
The National Intelligencer, in mentioning the
failure of the Bank Of Washington, terms 1t
g another Of the inevitable consequences Of the
experiment. which is carrying disaster and de-
vastation over the whole face of the country"
Whatever it be the consequence of-whether
" the experiment." or "the monster" or mere
" distrust''--it is evident that something is car
rying disaster and devastation over the country.
Every one sees the effect-and each mani
festation of it is triumphantly appealed to by
both parties as fresh evidence of the ruinous
policy pursued by their opponents. Each party
is unwearied in defending its own views of the
causes, and in urging its own remedy, but nei-
Their will spend moment in seeking for or eX-
aiming remedy independent of any of the
ascrlbed causes.

ALEXANDRIA:
MONDAY MORNING, APRIL IA, 1884.
NEW YORK ELECTION.

We expect to be able to give the result of this
hiehly important election in Postscript to this
davis Gazette. Never was there such contest
in any city in this country Disgraceful riots
prevailed in the Sixth Ward on the last day of
the election, (Thursday) A Postscript to the
Commercial Advertiser, dated at one o'clock
P. M on Thursday, says:
At about IL O'clock it was reported at the
Sixth Ward Poll, that the model frigate Con-
sTrrurroN was passing Masonic Hall-the Head
Quarters of the Wing Committees.
Instantly a large band OF rufflans started up
Duane street towards the Hall, tearing up stones
and brickbats, and breaking down ratings for
clubs to arm those not already brandishing bud.
geons They rushed EDWARDS, bowling and
screaming in savage manner.
The little frigate had proceeded on her cruize
before the mob arrived in front of the Hall; but
in passing it, they let fly volley of stones and
missiles at the large portrait Of WASHINGTON,
which was considerably tattered, and several
of the windows broken
The report was, that their intention was to
take possession of the Hail. and the crowd soon
turned about for that purpose. Meantime the
Mayor and Sheriff, with posse of Constables,
had repaired to the scene Of action. AS they
approached, the Mayor held up his staff Of of
fee. but was answered with shower of mis-
siles.
The rabble pressed on; the Sheriff, and May
or and Marshas, were assailed-several OF
them were knocked down and severely injured;
numbers Of the rufians rushed into the Hall,
and the Wing Committees were obliged to fly
for their lives through the back doors and win
dows.
We have seen several persons who were in
the affray. There have been many persons
grievously wounded. respectable Irish gen
teman informs us that he saw man felled to
the pavement by fra ment of board. Ano
Their rioter instantly dashed q barrel upon the
fallen man, and another sprang upon him with
his feet. Our informant was compelled to fly
for his life and he came forthwith to our office
with the news He thinks the man was killed.
1t is reported that man was instantly killed
by a blow from shillelah. The mob are, a
portion of them, following the frigate tearing
up paving stones, &c.
The Mayor, we are compelled to state, has
been badly injured. There was an attempt OF
the Irishmen to gain the Arsenal; but they were
anticipated in this movement by the citizens,
and at a quarter past one O'Clock the officers
were passing out arms to the citiZens
At the moment of the rush of the rioters from
the polls to attack the frigate and the Hall, there
was cry among them of "CLUBSH'
Instantly as if by concert, large numbers OF
budgeons were handed out from certain CONT
guous groceries.
u The Jackson leaders who are urging for
ward these deluded partizans of their Chief,
have a heavy weight of guilt to answer for.
u But we must go to press We learn that
the riot is not yet quelled. The stores and shops
have been closed in Broadway, and there is
now said to be fighting at the Polls ofthe Sixth
Ward.

THE TINES.

Last week was a disastrous one to this Dis
trict. We are now experiencing the glorious
results Of the glorious Experiment." The ge~
neral prostration of credit-the loss of all conf
dence-and the stagnation of busness-have
fallen heavily uponthe people in this District, as
well as those elsewhere.
The BANK OF WASHINGTON suspended payment
on Friday last. This has been already announ-
ced.
The BANK OF ALEXANDRIA suspended payment
on Saturday morning; and the
FARMERS AND MECHANICS BANK OF GEoReE-
TOWN suspended payment on Saturday.
Three Banks in two days. Glory enough for
the Governor of the District and the President
of the United States!
We confidently hope and surely believe that
now the worst has come to the worst. We be-
lieve that the Experiment has run its course in
the District.
