engaged in laborious efforts with bat faint hope OF
success, TO accomplish yet before al diournmeur,
some measure or measures which mas relieve the
Government from ia necessities and iuiu,c some
thing like vitality into the stagnant commerce and
industry OF the country. Midsummer has over
taken them in the midst OF their abor., and before
they are released from them the hu,bandman will

HEAVY FAILUnEs-We select the above cap.
ton, as most likely attract attention, to notice

pality had stopped payment. We were at some
trouble to inquire into the truth Of the facts. and
not single house reported to have stopped had
