Another object of the Legislature in passing the act Of

mr.. Grahan's Statement.

We publish to-day the long statement of Mr..
Graham. the Postmaster, in explanation OF his
connexion with the late North American Trust
Company 1t is perfectly satisfactory-so far as we
can see-all through, and Mr.. Graham shows very
conclusvely that including his partners. he had no
more money than what they all Justly earned so
far, therefore, he stands completely exonerated
from having anything to do with the extraordinary
losses sustained in that company
We shall now look for the rest OF the sxpostions
from the other persons implicated, and we can have
no doubt that each of them will make out as good
n case and as a strong of their innocence
as MIR. Graham has presented We don't see how
there can be any difficulty at all on the snbJect;and
vet after each of the directors, presidents, mana
gers and all have explained their case and satisfied
the public that they perfectly innocent, and
have not farthing of the money 1t Is still abso-
utely certain that the stockholders have lost Sc
veral millions and the question still recurs-
ssWhat the devil has become of the money!" No
one has got it, it seems--no one ever had it-yetit
is gone. 81 haven't got it," says one-''Nor l,
exclaims another-"Nor l." re-echoes third, and
so on; through to the foreth or fitch OF those
concerned in it, Yet still the stockholders have
lost their money.
We believe we shall have to make respectful
appl,cation TO his Satanic Majesty, and ask OF him
to inspect his vaults below, in order to ascertain
whether this lost property be not snusly slowed
awav there We don't believe II is to be found
on the face of the earth.

TRADING IN BLoop.-We find the following ar
tcle in the "Madisonian," relative to an express
which happened to leave Washington on the night
of the day on which the great explosion and catas
trophe took place.
On the evening OF the recent sad occurrence, pub
shed extra Msdsonians containing account OF it, and
directed them to all the papers published the line to DC
passed by the Express which to leave this city at
o'clock p. NJ, between Washington and Boston. When
they properly directed the person 1--WE did not learn
his name who had chartered the Express for other
purposes refused to take the slips containing the mean
ctoy intelligence TO the different cities unless permitted
make what Of them he pleased and alleged that in
he had been disappointed by the Senate in not
debating the Oregon question that day he must endeavor
to make up his losses by conveying in his own manner
and on his terms the Of the accident Our oh
ect being solely to disseminate the Intelligence, we
placed the extras in his hands He said he would have
exclusive extras printed for sale in the different cities, to
monopoize the profits Whether or not our slips were
delivered to any Of the editors 10 whom they ad
dressed, we will soon see-Madisonian.
In reply TO the interrogatory of the "Madi-
sonian," we say that no slips received at this
office. On such melancholy occasion as that Of
the Princeton, any man, or set of men of common
humanity, would never have attempted to make
money out of blood and death, as seems to have
been attempted on that occasion.

she has left under queer circumstances.
