we meet with every day; and the secret grief
which graves the lines upon the face no stran

such cases reasonably suspect that they are
to be ascribed to narrow means. Who can be
happy when his purse is lowi Who can wear
a smiling brow when his heart is heavy
and his pocket emptyi There are few such
philosophers in the world. II Is on this 40
count that we naturally call in the aid Of the
goddess Fortune. whose prime ministers are

vfLLAlNY IN NEW YORK.


II New York city were inhabited by Ma
lays and SsPoys and governed by Nena Sa-
bib himself, lie calendar Of crime would
scarcely present blacksr phase. RuHiansm
there runs rampant and murder stalks about
the streets with the boldness Of impunily.--
The following sketch from the Herald Of
Friday will afford some idea Of the present
state Of affairs 10 that great centre Of in.
guilty:
The increase Of crime In our midst IL truly
alarming, and enough TO make the stoutest
heart quail. Within the past three DAYS we
have been called upon to chronicle the muir
der Of no less than three persons, and the
mortal woundng Of four others. Where the
carnival Of blood Is going to end, we know
not. Citizens can no longer resort to the
public highways after nightfall without the
fear OF sudden death beneath the brayo's
steel. The killing Of young Hamilton In
drinking saloon In Canal street marked the
commencement Of the bloody epoch. The
following night Francis Vincent wus murder.
cd in North Williams street William Mar.
shall, the negro, was MORALLY wounded in
West Broadway, and grocery man In Sew
enteenth street, named Francet, received q
fatal stab while ejectlng fowdy from his
store. Scarcely twenty. hours had elaps-
ed when we were again Mortified by a whole
sale butchery at a dance house In Water
street. The same paper Of Sunday ndds.
Horrors continue to accumulate. Scarcely
Is the ink dry that records one bloody deed
before intelligence Of another more appalling
than the first bursts upon us. The tragedies
Of the past week were yesterday morning
brought to fearful climax by the perpetra.
iion Of double murder and the suicide Of the
wreiched homicide.

81 The whole credit system, says the
Mobi, Union, Of our country has been made
an ahomination. The retailers give credit to
customers to induce them to purchase more
Iarssiy-'o buy extravagnnt and useless .rti.
cles Of dress, by putting payday out of sight,
and when it comes, the buyer groans over
the folly and extravaganza of wife and
daughters, and when called upon cannot find
the money to meet his liabilities. But the
retailer owes the bank and must pay punctu.
ally, and, nj his customers will not or cannot
pay him, he fails and adds to the general
embarrassment. Now, If retailers did not sell
on credit, but required their customers to pay
cash down, or weekly, people would never
buy beyond their means, retailers would
never break, and tho whole machinery of
trade would stand on solid foundation. In
this respect tho American people are unlike
the English, French, German, or Chinese,
who deal for cash in all transactions for pri-
vate use. A failure of the grair harvest, or
a war, is = far less evil to those nations than
to the United States, and, in consequence OF
this unsound credit system, our industrious
laborers and our stauhchest merchants suffer
terribly every few vears.

was charged 40 cents discount on the dollar,

"SHow YouR 1'IcKET."lThe New York
Court of Appeals hns just rendered decis-
ion in relation to the right Of requiring pass
engers to show tickets. A passenger who
WINS put off from train on the Erie Rail
Road, for refusing to show his ticket to the
conductor, brought suit against the compa.
ny. The conductor had once been shown
the ticket, and on asking to see it the second
time was assured by another passenger that
the plaintiff had paid his fare. But the plain.
Lift persisting in refusing to show his ticket,
was elected from the car. The court deci-
ded in favor Of the company very distinctly,
and on several different issnes, charging that
the company had the right to make all need
full regulations for their own convenience
and the comfort of The passengers, and
among these is the right ofknowing continu-
ally who are entitled to seats; the court to
be judge OF the lawfulness of the regulation
as to how often tickets are to be shown, and
jury not to decide whether an unreasonable
frequency is required or not.

WAsHIucror NRws--The subjoined LET.

Of the Baltimore Sun, contaiss several iseus.
which cannot but be Of deep interest to the
country at large. For example. he tells no
that -four hundred millions Of dollars pili fall
far short Of the srpsnses" Of The Mormon
war:
I. II learn from authentic sources that the
free State "party" In Kansas are organizing 4
resistance, ny force, 10 the provisional gov.
eminent, or any government which NAV be
instituted under the constitution named bv
the constitutional convention, and that tbev
viii not recognize that constitution In snv
way. They will not probably vote upon tbs
question submitted-to wit, constitution with
and consultation without slavery. The CON.
stitution will nevertheless b. admitted 10
Congress, and then will commence the moat
serious agitation In that body and In the
country, on this subject, that we have ever VET
experienced. On both sides an appeal to force
in Kansas will perhaps be made. n
"The administration may take one side or
the other, u there be any side to the contro-
versy which can be recognized as the right
side. The crisis Is almost upon Us, and how
II will be evaded is the question.
II learn That II Is determined that Colonel
Johnson's command for Utah shall 70 into
winter quarters near Green river, and there
await reinforcements, which will be sent out
In the spring. The government will depend
chiefly on volunteer troops for that service,
and upon "a pile" Of money which must be-
obtained by "A resort to new loan. Four
hundred millions will fall far short of tho
expense of this war. II will coat nearly ~
much ms the estimated expenditure upon tho
military expenses Of the East lndh govern :;
ment In the suppression Of the urutiny there.
Still, this government would be accounted
as failure unless the Mormon insurreetion
be suppressed"
