Agricultural EahibiHon,-The exhibition OF
the New Castle County Agricultural Society on
Wednesday and Thursday of last week, was quite
we'll attended and passed off very pleasantly We
learn that the receipts from members and Tor single
admission tickets, reached about $500, sum amply
efficient to pay current expenses and to consider
ably reduce the debt incurred 10 the erection Of
buildings, &c. We regret that larger number OF
farmers do not send their stock and productions to
the exhibition aud not leave two or three to furnish
all the articles IN one department Without the
Cue Durhams Of Mr.. Lobdell, and the superior
Deyons Of Mr.. Holcomb, the display of cows would
have been meagre indeed. The same may be said
In regard to sheep, the principal contribution being
from the celebrated pens of VIM. Reybold The
oxen all came from or 8 farms, and the swine from
about tho same number The display Of horses was
considerably greater, which fact is chiefly attributed
to the desire Of the younger portion of the members
to test their speed and power Of endurance Equal
apathy exists among the ladies, as the display In
the household and horticultural departments were
far behind that made Ia some of our adjoining
csuntles. We wish tie wves 1nd daughters of New
Castle could Lave been present at tho exhibition at
Chester, Pa, Ia tho SIGHT there presented would
have done their LsnHs good, and prompted them to
greater effort For their own shke as well as the
good name of our county, we hope they, a we'll Us
their husbands and brothers, will make a greater
effort next year.

The EVIL OF LONG CREpiTs.-It is now sufli-
ciently obvious that the difficulties under
which the commercial world is laboring result
more or less directly from the abuse of credit,
and that very considerable share OF that
abuse occurs IN the dry goods trade. The N i.
Y. Post says;
The usual length of credit among this class
OF merchants is eight months, while the i'm.
porter's credit never exceeds five months
and in many cases does not amount to so long
time. Therefore thore is against the impor
ter balance of three months time--a very
serious condition-which is rendered more 81
by the continual risk he undergoes in giyin.
that amount of credit, which enables the re
taller to purchase goods Tor both the fall anC
summer trade before paying for any. w,
are aware of the difficulties which beset do
termination to alter an existing state OF credit
but is it possible for any country to do a safe
business on so unsound principle. When
will better time than the present, oc
cur for our merchants tu combine for their
mutual advantage2 Why not at once take
measures to concert combined reduction of
their term Of credit to four months, and form
the nucleus of real sound business system 2
Tie railroad and telegraph have long since
removed the only excuse that ever existed for
long credits, and the merchants may MS well
profit by their past and present experience. as

HEAVY DEFALcATIoN OF AN OFFICER OF THE
SUNDAY SCHOOL UsIoN.--A deep sensation has
been created in the religious community by
the exposure of the defalcation Of Mr.. Fred
erick W. Porter, of Philadelphia, for thirty
years the Corresponding Secretary OF the
American Sunday School Union. The Board
has issued card, stating that Mr.. Porter has
issued notes and acceptances for his private
purposes, unknown to any member Of the in
stitution, to the amount of S88,SSS 90. The
Board say in their card
"We are happy to say that no part of the
funds appear to have been distracted, MOI
have any part Of the contributions to its Leney.
VIOLENT objects been lost or misapplied. AL
the obligations of the society which have bee,
legitimately incurred, have bean and will b,
promptly met. The business will not be serl
ously interrupted, though in these painful cir
cumstances We shall need, and we doubt no
shall have, the warm sympathy and liberal ait
of our numerous friends
The discovery was made about a fortnirh
since, during the illness of MIR. Porter, when {
bank notice for $1,000 was sent in, and no re-
cord Of the note falling due could be found
upon the books of the society. 1t is not knowr
how long the practise has been going on. but
1t is supposed that the extent of the outstand

OF this is secured, and the whole loss, it is be
neved, will not exceed $4,000,

Difficulty with New Grenada.

Our Government has been trying for year
to induce the Government of New Grenada
to make reparation for the destruction of the
lives and property of our citizens in the great
riot at Panama in April, 1896, and to make
some arrangement for the future security of
life and property in passing over the Isthmus.
But it seems that all efforts to this end have
failed, and our Minister Judge Bowlin, and
our special Commissioner Mr.. Morse, have
returned home. The Panama Star, of April
80 says - ts . r
.sOn the 10th the steamer Thames arrived
here with u. S. Commissioner Morse, and
full confirmation of the worst features of our
previous advces from that quarter. We learn
ed that this government had deliberately and
in the most Insolent manner rejected entierly
the propositions of the U. S. government re-
specting settlement of the difficulty between
them demanded reparation for discourtesies
on the part of the United States officials tow
ards the New Granadian officials at Panama,
denied in the strongest terms any responsible
ty for the outrages of l 9TH, 1856, at Panama :;
charged said responsibility entierly and en-
phatically upon the u So government; re-
fused peremptoriiy TO pay any damages for
the results of said outrage; demand for the
same, of the United States, one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars declared that the object
of the United States in making the claim &c,
was to get possession of the -Isthmus; that no
settlement of the question at issue and of a
protection for said transit can be made but
through concert of action and consent of the
representatives Of Great Britain and France !;
