Reading Matter on Every Page.

The Banner is still grumbling at the opinions ex-
pressed by the Democratic meeting which assembled
in Nashville on the 22nd Vltimo. Our neighbOr hav
ing no sentiments of his own The currency ques-
ton appears from his failure to respond to the in
terrOgatores which prOpOuDded to him some weeks
since amuses himself by finding fault with other PeO
pies notions The Banner reminds US Of wicked fell
low we once heard Of who persisteny refused the So
lioitations of his friends, to connect himself with
their various churches. Chow is it" said one Of
them ''that you find fault with au the christian de-
nominations, and yet you suggest nothing in
their place! The fact is said the man, q want to
break down every kind of religion, and then well
all 20 to hell together" The Banner wishes TO place
the Democratic party in as bad a condition as its
own, and thinks if it can break down The principles
of our party the Democrats and Know Nothings will
all 90 down to perdition together, and carry the
country along with them. We prefer our faith to
the Banners in6delity.

in a minority ofsi1; Democratic gain, ten members.
This looks if The Democrats were going to be

and in other States We expect a majority Of forty
over everything in the next House of Representa-

Maine will be contested but as they have received
majority Of all the legal votes there is little doubt
but what they will be admitted, although their op-

been searching for Thurston, thinks now that "the
violent motion Of the balloon, sWaying to and fro in
the air, and its great elevation hree miles) caused
the unfortunate to resign his hold and drop to

HEAVY DKFALoATIoN. The failure Of White,
Smith & Co., Of Northampton, Mass, manufacturers
Of eunamelcd cloth, is announced. The Republican
Of that place says it wss brought about by the al
lodged defslcation of their selling agent in New
York, Mr. Damon, whose delinquencies are estimat-
ed al the way from thirty to seveniy-fve thousand
dollars. Ihsf7m possessed The confidence Of the
community, and many citizens had investd in its
notes. Some had thus put out all or nearly all of
their means, and the failure Oyertakes them with
great distress. It is calculated that the concern
swes citizens of Northampton about $4,000 for
money loaned or Tor endorsements, for which none
of them have any security. Mr.. Damon is in Jail
at Northampton.

of brief statement in our telegraphic dispatches,
we have not refe red the result of tbereeent cleo
ton in California Whatever may have been the
pectatiOn in opposition quarters, the result has
proved complete triumph for the friends of the
Administration. The msjorities are large, and the
discontinue of the opposition significant and deci-
ded
1t seems that Messrs. McKibbin and Dudley, not
withstandng the Law of the Legislature providing
for elsctiug members Of Congress next year instead
of the present, chose to for that Office sthough
no such election was ordered They ran alone and
Of course claim to be elected, but when next year
the regular election is held in conformity with law
they will have opportunity to try their strength
with Democratic competitors.
California, now as heretofore, is strongly Demo-
cratic and the detection of Broderck and MoKibbu,
does not in the least to have endangered the
Administration party in that State.

ENGLISH CoTToN MANUFAoTURERs.-Ihe London
correspondent of the Liverpool Mercury writing on
the afternoon of the l4th of September, says "The
cotton manufacture in England is stated, on good
authority be in better state than it has been, at
any time, since the year 1916. On some Of the re-
cent shipments Of twist the profit is said to be two
pence per pound"
The reports from the Liverpool Exchange, on the
afternoon of the 14th Of September were favorable
to the cotton trade. The report says: ''Ihe Mans
chester market has again advanced loNday as much
as One-fOurth to halt pence in yarns, and three
pence per piece IL cloIh and even at these prices
spinners are not very willing to enter into large
oOntraots-the very prospect Of a further rise thus
tending to check the extent of business, which,
however, continues very extensive, particularly for
India and China"

As the above charge has been circulated IN GER
,ain parts Of this Circuit against the undersigned
be supposes that 1t was intended for him; and mas
been manufactured out of the fact that he voted IN
the Legislature, session Of 1S49-5O, for bill that
gave to creditors whose judgments we're less iheh
$50 the benefit, in substance, Of Chancey proceed
ing before Justice of the Peace to discover prop
erty, money CT effects fraudulenty concealed by the
debtor II is well known that bill cannot De hleu
in Chancery, unless the claim is $50 or upwards
thought the poor man and small DEALER "uo'e
claims we're less than 500, should have an equal
remedy With the rich man and large dealer 10 as
cover effects fravdulently concealed And as II
would have been a cheap remedy, 1t was MADE 10
amply to all judgments before Justice or Circuit
Court. 1t nov is and always has been the law Of
Chnncery proceedings that defendant may be
eonpelled to answer aud discover and deliver up
effects fraudulenly concealed or be imprisoned for
contempt Of the order CT the Court Who ever heard
Of man being oppressed by this Law OF ChaneeTy
proceedings? The law voted for only gave the
same remedy before Justice of the Peace, and in
eluded money fraudulently concealed Can an
honest man object to such law?
