FINANCIAL CRIsIs.-The New York Herald
says in relation to the recent heavy failure OF
Simeon Draper of New York:
At the present day, it is said that Mr.. Dra-
per intends to resume payment Tomorrow.
We do not believe that such Il thing will come
to pass. Indeed, we are rather inclined to
think, from the appearance of the financial
horizon, that we are not very far from the
commencement Of one of the most trcmen-
dOus convuI sions that has Overtaken the credit
system Ofthc country, and we believe that
this CONFUSION has been prccipitatcd on us,
without warning and without notice, by the
strange and extraordinary management of
the surplus revenue and financial affairs Of
the government, under the present ignorant
and incompetent Secretary of the Treasury
at Washington.
There is every reason to believe that the
credits Of the country have been forced be-
yond their natural boundaries. even in the
face Of all the receipts Of gold from Califor-
MIA and Australia. The Issue of bonds of
all descriptions, from under the guarantee of
States down to the smallest city in the North
west, has been Of the most enormous magni-
tude. mounting up TO millions after millions
and resembling in Il particular degree the
condition Of things in England pryious to the
great railroad CONFUSION of that country II
few years ago. Every symptom of the present
day resembles. in Il most marked and striking
manner, the symptoms Of that CONFUSION,
which took place in 1897. The high prices
Of all commodities, the rise in the value of
estate, the extraordinary energy displayed in
all sorts OF improvements, the spread of social
extravaganza, the corruption and prolli"acy
of political men, and the grasping cupidity
and extravaganza of spectators, are all Of the
same character, though Of greater macn-
tude now than they were in that disastrous
period.
In the midst of this unhealthy and extra
ordinary enlargement Of commercial and all
sorts OF credits, we see the Secretary of the
Treasury, in his ignorance and presumption,
usn" the surplus revenue under his control
in II mode that will add tightness to tightncss
and screw to screw till the collapse come up
on rs like II thunder burst in a summer sky.
.isa specimen Of this ignorance and want of
knowledge, the Secretary Of the Treasury is
just now buyin" up the bonds of the govern
mcnt not due and sending the very specie to
Europe, without any necessity for doing 50,
in payment OF those evidences OF debt held in
that quarter Of the world.

~ Mr.. John Lea, of Cincinnati, in long

fact, that "cholcra never becomes epidemic
in any district or city where rain or pure soft

by many important facts. He also states
that during five years past, not one well au-

where rain water was exclusively used.

IIoGs.--The Cincinnati Price Current OF
October 9th, SAYS:

IIoGs-Thc Cincinnati Price Current of
October 9Th, says:
The prospect of heavy demand from Flu
rope, as might be expected. imparts buoy.
ant feeling to the market for hogs, and with
in two weeks prices have advanced only 75c
per 100 pounds and now S. is being paid,
and is obtanablc for hogs deliverable in this
month and November: in addition to which,
saughtcrcrs are contracting for the killing at
30c per head premium. It's now reduced to
certainty, that the market will open at or
over 80 per 100 pounds net; which will be
fully up to the opening price Of last ycar.-
We do not know of Il packer, however, who
would think Of paying this price with view
of going through the season with the pro-
duets. We may therefore, conclude, that the
opening price will not be an indication of the
price that will be paid during or at the full
commencement of the regular packing season.
But still, it cannot be denied that prospects
are decidedly more favorable to the interests
of farmers than they We're three weeks ago.
while with reference to packers, they are the
reverse.

THE OTHER Substituting copied several
articles from prominent Northen Journals, the
points to which indicated the approach of
crisis in the monetary affairs of the country,
we copy the following from the New York
Tribune, painting Il more favorable picture:
The advance in brcadstuils is doubtless in
Il great degree, as heretofore, owing to the
spcculalions growing out of the unsettled
state of the Eastern question. 49,
Looking at home, there is certainly but
few grounds for serious apprehension, much
less for panic. The whole country has been
enriched by the prosperity and thrift of the
past five years. The banks of the country
hold more coin now than they did one year
since. California continues to yield abun.
dainty, and with all the regularity of the solar
system. The crops throughout are good and
bring great prices Every one of the railroads
in operation are yielding more than ever be-
fore, while those Of the West are receiving
rcvcnucs positively enormous. Each one of
these works. as it is opened to traffic, at once
becomes Il productive property. Such Il state
Of things is not likely to result in panic and
disaster, and vet for Il few days past there has
been manifest disposition in some quarters
TO take the very opposite view of all these
facts; and the croakings of Il portion of the
press, and other kindred parties, has gone so
far rs TO even deny the whole fabric of our
prosperity and to assert that the days of '37
were again upon us. This we do not believe.
We may. and no doubt have, gone somewhat
too fast, but this has now been met and
measurabIy remedied by II corresponding cur
tamcnt and caution, and there is reason to
believe that within few weeks the appear
anccs Of the future will brighten, and that
with reasonable prudence things will 90 for.
ward prospcrously as heretofore.
