J. G.. BENNETT, ESQ.,
There were several heavy failures here at the
close of last week. We thought we had got over
such accidents, and that, though business was not
very good, we should slip along without further dis
asters. The affairs of the two heaviest concerns
which suspended--the one engaged in navigation,
and the other in manufactures-are supposed 10 be
tainted with that poisonous and fatal malady, the
speculations of 1896. II seems as if health would
not be restored to the mercantile community until
the last bubble of that paper initiation had exploded
Money has not been quite easily obtained for
a few days past. Why, know not, unless large
remittances were made by the stea amer. The de-
mand for money, however, is not great, and the
banks, lbelIeve, discount literally regular business
paper Payments at this time are generally light.
Mr.. Clapp, of the Evening Gazette, went out IN
the Columbia with his two beautiful daughters
They will have the prayers of their many admirers
here for the safety and pleasantness of their visit to
the old world. t ,t4.r su
Brother Kinks young church have hired the Ma
sonic Temple for temporary place of worship
They have cushioned the seats, and brushed up the
room, so that they made very pretty appearance
there yesterday The place is too small; but few of
the many admirers of the eloquent divine can be
accommodated And then it is directly by the side
of 81. Paul's Church, and with the windows open,
as they must necessarily BE in warm weather. the
eloquence of DR.. Vinton, not surpassed by that OF
his accomplished neighbor, and the music of his
choir, mingle in with the services of Mr.. Kirk.
1t is said, and believe truly, that Mr. X. is en-
gagged to young lady of Albany-a descendant OF
one of the most ancient and distinguished Dutch ia
miles OF that place; so that the many expectants
here may hang their " harps upon the willows"
