From tho Richmond South.
How England came by the Indian EN-.

]
From time immemorial the East has
been reputed the abode of fabulous rich>
es. To its imaginary mountains of di.
almonds. its Pactolian rivers and its cities
Of Unreasonable wealth and splendor, our
early literature owes its most vivid ina
ges of felicity and glory. In its widest
dreams. the fancy of the poet could con-
jure up no more gorgeous visions than
were associated with Ormus, Golconda
and Arsby the Blest. The desire OF Yea
lining something Of this ideal wealth and
luxury impaired the earliest impulse to
modern navigation. COLUMBUS was in
search Of a direct route to the Indies,
when he discovered new world. 1t
was the trade of the East that enriched
the Venetians; and such were the advan>
tages Of their situation, that NO other ma
ton could contend with them for the
prize. SO long as the wealth of the Indies
was conducted only through The interior
OF Asia or across the 1sthmus of Suez.-
VAsco DE CANA destroyed their monopo-
ly when he doubled the Cape of Good
Hope; and for century from the date Of
that wonderful achievement, the Portu.
guese controlled the commerce of the
East. To Lisbon the Merchants of Eu>
rope repaired for a supply of the precious
commodities of India. Portugal was abb
sorbed into the Empire of Spain, and
Philip II. being at war with England and
the United Provinces, prohibited all COM
mercial intercourse between those hereti.
cal countries and his own dominions. The
only effect of this foolish measure was to
compel the Dutch and English to open
direct trade with the Indies. Holland
too the le2d in the venture. The Porta-
guese set,,,sments in the East, reared
with SO much ditf1cSs;!lty by the genius of
Albuquerque and Francis 4ccyier, fell in
to decay. and upon their ruins Dutci: en-
terprise and energy erected prosperous
colonial and commercial interest. Am.
sterdam became the mart TO which the
merchants of Europe repaired for a SUD-
ply OF Indian commodities.
1t was near the close Of Queen Eliza.
oeth's glorious reign-in 1900, perbaps
that few English adventures obtain
ed royal charter for an East India Com.
pany. The enterprise was awarded with
abundant success. The Dutch were soon
distanced in the competition, and En-
glish influence achieved an indisputed as.
cendancy in the East.
The interests of the Company necessi-
lated the establishment of agencies on the
coast OF Hindostan, with warehouses for
the safekeeping of goods, and a sufficient
force to protect the factories from Vic.
ienee and pillage. These privileges were
obtained without difficulty from The ma.

The Banks.

As will be seen bJ our columns to-day.
there has been general suspension Of
the banks throughout the country. The
.tcrisis" that has for long time been
growing in the distance like an impend-
ing storm. has at length burst upon us.
The Ohio Trust Company. agigantic in
stitution, went first. some months ago.
dragging along with i. several private
bankers and brokers. and affording q
number Of mercantile men theopportuni-
y Of "suspending.
These failures. suspensions. &C.. were
principally confined to New York. The
other cities and business communities Of
the country were but little affected, and
as long as the reyulsions were confined
to that Sodom and Gomorrah of mann
mon. no particular uneasiness was felt,
as but little that isigood is expected of
those people. But last week run was
made upon the Pennsylvania Bank, at
Philadelphia, supposed to be one of the
most solvent institutions in the country,
and it was compelled to suspend" the
redemption OF its notes in specie. The
Girard Bank, and two or three others.
refused to redeem any Of their notes of a
larger denomination than FIVE and ten
dollars. The disability of these banks
to meet their obligations created a gen
eral panic among all the bankers of the
country. Meetings were held of the off.
GERS of the banks in different cities, al
which it was resolved to suspend specie
payments at once to, prevent the drain
upon their vaults that would necessarily
follow the suspension of the other banks
And so stands the whole business commu
nifty Of the country. waiting to see if"the
thunder will strike any body else"
What the end will be we must Gle
time and chance determine" but the
probability is that after considerable flut
tering among the birds and breaking
among the bears. that business vii
move on as regularly and more heal
thy than before. This revulslon has
been threatening for long time ant
now the comet has struck, it will soon bt
ascertained who is hit and Tho is missed
and the information will have tendency
to restore alike confidence and business
So we would advise all our friends t.
keep cool and "wait for the wagon" W.
"don't believe there will be much of
shower"
In the mean time. if any of our friend
who are owing for their subscriptions. ad
vertisements or jobbing, dislike keeping
their money on hand. we shall be yer.
happy to receipt for portion of it. AL
is fish that comes to our net. as our cred
itors are nightly glad to get anything.
