LETTERS FROM New YoRK.-We CON-
mend the interesting letters from Mr.
RATHBoNE to the attention Of our readers.
That the operations Of banks were not
the cause of the revulsion. and therefore
we ought not to look to them for a relief
and remedy, is the true position and
what we have often repeated. Banks
have been as much the victims OF the
panic as individuals. There was moth.
ing in their course to produce it and they
did not foresee it, or # they had they
could not have prevented it. 1t had its
origin in deeper and more universal
cause than any influence exerted by our
bank currency. Banks neither produced
the evil nor can they remedy thence
the universal disappointment Of relic
which was expected from suspension o.
specie payments. Ii the banks were to
double their issues they could not fill
the void which the destruction of private
credit has made.

BUSINESS IN LouIsvILLE.-The editor of
the Cannelton Reporter spent several days
last week, in Louisville, and gives the fol-
lowing report Of the aspect of affairs in that
city:
"Never did we ever see tho city look so
dull and gloomy. The dry goods houses
look as though the head man was dead, and
all hands had gone to the funeral. The gro
Gerry men are selling little whisky, which is
necessary, we suppose, to keep up the flag
ging spirits of the country folks. Main street
wears the appearance of desertior. Gloom
overhangs the city-specie per cent. ex-
change 4@6 per cent.-banks not discount
lng-money scarce-times getting tighter
every day.
"But few Of the Louisville merchants have
as yet gone down. They stand the panic
nobly, and the most of them. it is believed
will go through, badly bent but not broke.
We shall see."

STEAMBOAT BUSINESS IN ST.. LOUIS.

STEAMBOAT BUSINESS IN ST. LOUISA
correspondent of the New Albany Ledger at
st. Louis, who is interested in what he
writes about, says the steamboat men are in
the deepest dependency. "Here now lie
moored Mt the levee some seventy-five idle
steamboats,, and the bare lcvee and the
oppressive silence there prevailing are elo-
quent monitors. The New Orleans boats are
reducing the wages of pilots, engineers, and
crews, or rather the officers are volunteering
to accept reduction, in order to keep the
boats moving. In other trades boats are re-
ducing their expenses by every justifable
means. Every day there is boat or two
hauled out from the levee and taken to the
bone yard to wait for better times. Upon
the whole, things are in bad condition for
the merchant and his clerk, the mechanic
and his employer, steamboat owners and
those depending on the river for living,
and everybody else. There is plenty of wa
ter in all the rivers, but no freight of ans
consequence"

GA Convention of Sunday School

Superintendent and Teachers, and
friends Of the cause, assembled at Indi-
annapolis on Tuesday evening, in COM
pliance with the call Of several gentle
men interested in the Sabbath School
cause. and the religious prosperity of the
State. The Convention was numerous
ly attended from all parts Of the State.
Many important questions were discuss
ed, and resolutions adopted, relative to
the working of Sunday Schools. On
Thursday night the Convention adjourn
ed sine die. During the session, several
amusing anecdotes were told. illustrating
the precocity Of Young America. One
gentleman had heard of a youngster
who knelt to say its evening prayer, and
improved the common version thus:
''Now lay me down to sleep.
pray the Lord my soul to keep,
If should die before wake,
Pop goes the weasel!'
Another asked his teacher whether
there were any "shanghais" in Capt

claimed, "Here's at you till morning."

GA million and seven hundred
thousand dollars in specie has been re-
ceived at New York from England since
the panic began. Another million is on
the way. A million and a quarter has
been received fro California, and anoth-
err million and a half will come in the
present week from the same source. Yet
these large receipts do not apparently
give any relief to the money market

The POTATO RoT IN EURoPE.-It APP
pears by private advices received by the
last steamer, and by an article in the
Mark Lane Express, that the potato dis
ease had suddenly made its appearance
in England early in October in a very
virulent form, and was spreading with
destructiveness as alarming as in 1916,
VIXEN it created the famine in Ireland.
1t is said to have made its appearance in
as destructive form on the continent as in
England; if the destruction Of the potato
on the continent be general, it will pre-
vent the expectation grain to England,
and the latter will be obliged to rely on
America for her breadstuffs. The Mark
Lane Express-the organ Of the London
Corn Dealers-says the average importa-
tons of wheat into Great Britain for the
last six years, have been 4,770,OO0
quarters or 80, 100000 bushels per an
mum.
The present wheat crop ofGreat Brit
ain does not much exceed an average and
it is estimated by the Express, that Eng

Silence equal in destructiveness to that

"and this extends not only to every par,

"and considerable part of the European
"Continent. In France, the alarm crea

Our TELEGRAPH News is highly inter-

grain market, and the rapid advance in
prices present a fattering prospect. 1t
is reported that the steamer Persia be-
