WHEN SHALL WE SEE BoTToM. In an.
swering this question we assert, "the
stampede might be stopped in forty eight
hours. Common sense is wanted-a lit
tie forbearance--absence of frankness-a
little kindness--of debtor to creditor
more confdence--a little loosening of the
screws;-that is all that is needed. Now,
take our advice:--Creditors stay at home,
fyou don't want your money; and ifyou
do, take only as much as you need. You
who hold bank-notes, lay them by, and
keep out of brokers' shops, unless you
must convert in order 10 pay your debts
You loose more money by getting shaved,
than you would by broken Banks, if you
kept quiet. Practice on the above--stop
croaking, and have kind word about your
neighbor, the Banks, and mankind in
general y--particularly the Railroad por.
ton, and our word for it, we have seen
bottom.
This subject brings up some sober
sound thoughts so we add: Farmer, il
you have gold laid by, take it to your
merchant, or to the Bank; should all do
SO, grain will bring twenty-five cents per
bushel more than it otherwise will. Me-
chancs let the best man you know have
what specie you can spare, otherwise day
labor will fall twenty-per cent. Merchant,
as you desire good trade, and good pay
help as best you can your Bank, your
neighbor. the manufacturer, and mechan-
ic. Banks,--you are creatures of circum-
stances, bow your heads to the people,
aud be thankful for small faYors. The
panic can be stopped. - TAOmpsOn's Re

SAD INclDE MT OF THE LATE CHICAGO
FIRE.--The Cleveland Review ofThurs
day evening, relates the following sad
incident Of the late terrible cona1gra-
ton in Chicago:
A lady passed through the city last
evening from Chicago 10 her home in the
vicinity of New York, now desolale by
the sudden loss of her husband. They
we're at the fremont House in Chicago
the night of the FIRE, and he from curiosi-
ty, went into it, and when there, was
crushed under falling wall. So mutila-
ted was he, that it was only by some
remnants of his clothing that the ago
nzed wife could recognise him, who but
a moment before was in the full vigor Of
manhood. Their money was with him,
and was we understand destroyed. The
widow. almost heart broken. meets with
active kindness from all. The Railroad
men pass her free, and others are also
attentive. She came from Toledo on
Conductor Ames' train, and one Mrs.
Whitaker wife of merchant of Toledo
interesting herself in her behalf, went
through the cars with the kind Couduc-
tor, and obtained over $20tor her. The
corpse is TO be forwarded by the Express
companies.

half of them did not pay at the end fthe
year, he should give them another bush.
ell of wheat. and agree TO wait another
year for his pay, and thus 90 on year
after year? How long would such far
mer escape bsnkfupteyl-probabIy not
much longer than publishers OF newspa-
pers who follow such practices. 1t costs
the editor ofa weekly newspaper as
much to supply thousand subscribers
with it for one year, as it costs farmer
to raise a mousend bushels of wheat.
The farmer sells his grain in bulk. News
papers are iold TO thousand different
persons living in different towns in the
counties, and different counties in the
State, and he must wait until the end o.
the year before he can get his payment
and then he depends wholly upon the
honesty and responsibility of the subscri'
ber, ior it is impossible that he should
know the character Of all his subscri-
bers. It will not pay him to go around
or serl around the county or State to
collect his dues. 1t would cost more
than he collections amounted to.--Ex-

TheENatiOnal1D Democrats of Kansas
DenOuncing Wnk,r,

The Missouri Republican of the 29 inst, CON
tains the proceedings OF meeting of Democrats
in favor Of the sectional interest of Slavery, held
at Lecompton on the 10Th and Goth inst. They
passed long string of resolutions denouncing
the "high.landed and illegal usurpation of pow.
er on the part of the Governor and Secretary Of
this Territory"--that the reasons alleged for
rejecting the fraudulent vote of the Oxford pre-,
cinct "are ungrounded illogical and insulting
TO the common sense Of every citizen"--that the
"GoVernor and Secretary have been guilty OF
gross violation of law, in going behind the
Oxford returns, and of an unprecedented insult
to the honesty OF the Legislature in refusing
them the power of deciding the question offraud
ulent votes--an insult openly expressed In the
proclamation "the peaceful settlement
Of the Kansas question has heen again endanger-
ed by this wanton act Of tyranny and that
'this meeting administer to the Governor OF the
Territory an unanimous rebuxe for his failure to
bring to the aid of the Convention the United

notice of their intention to hold this unlawful
assembly. on the previous Saturday evening
and refused to cause the arrival Of tho troops
until the Tuesday morning following, when the
danger was wholly past"
Here Is a tempesti in q teapot. These Border
Rufian Bombastes are immensely indignant,
because the Governor and Secretary of the Ter
ritory would not legalize their nblushing frauds
upon the ballot box. They also resolved that
they have such On abiding faith "in the Presi-
dent of the United States and his Cabinet as to
believe firmly that they will not countenencc

be remarked that the general expectation
of shippers and carriers is that there will

In fact, to be brief Portsmouth is one of the

years ago, last August, we landed at Portsmouth
then there was less than 1000 inhabit ants;
now, we believe, the citizens claim that there
are 10000. Quite large increase in little
over twelve years. We landed there on one OF
the smallest class Boats, the only one running
in the Portsmouth and Cincinnati trade. Now
two Of the largest and most magnificent Steam

Shops, together with Boiler Yard and sundry
other Manufactures, all Of which it is impossi

Who are Ranefa0tors2

Wide-awake business men, who make
work for themselves and others, men who
make are alive TO the interests of the in
dividual, the State, and the Nation. Idle
capitalists, who withdraw and lock up
their means, are ROt benefactors; but, by
'foreclosing' and shutting downthe gates,
actually compel honest industry to go into
bankruptcy, On the other hand, Mr..
Enterprise casts about, finds an opening
where men and women may be pro6tably
and useGully employed, as well for their
own good as for that of the whole COM
munity, and ho sets the wheels, for a
whole neighborhood, in motion. This
creates demand for produce, which beno-
fits the farmer, makes a market for dry
goods, which benefits the merchant. and
thus one helps the other through the en-
tire ramificatione of society and the world.
The man who adyertises the most liberal
ly, who gives profitable employment to
the greatest number Of persons, and thus
aids in the development of our resources,
to enrich the world, is the real benefac-
tor.
