CONCLUSION.

The ~pecuniary embarrassments and dis
tress of the past few months, will work out
a 9 great good to the country. Business of
almost every kind had been oyerdone.-
The great majority of business men were
rejoicing in an imaginary, and not real,
prosperity. Men ripe for wild speculations,
found the speculations ripe to their hands.
Every thing bore a fictitious Value
Lands, products, manufactured fabrics. all
things marketable, were valued above a
real worth. The currency was inflated by
over issues of bank notes. States were
rich in the issue and sale of evidences of
their debts. Railroad directors and agents,
were rich 10 speculations upon what they
had plundered from stockholders, and
stockholders in incorporated companies
were rich in the fictitious value of their
stocks. Sellers were rich in debts due for
property sold, and buyers were rich in that
abundance of credit which enabled them
to get into debt. Men dealt recklessly
and lived extravagautlv, and forgot their

The Next Cable.

There is little douhnbut that the next suSma.
rine telegraph will be between Havana anu Inc
Southern coast. 1t is now stated that the eermi-
mus on this side will be at Macon, Georgia.
The line projected is to be partly terrestrla, and
partly Georgia and hsy Ss eS
ernment can be obtained-otherwise the 80 or w
miles Of sea communication will be made by steam,
ers. The company was approved by the Island
government, and the charter for the American
end of the line was obtained from the Legislature
Of Georgia and Florida Application, was then
made to the Spanish Court for permission to run
the. submarine cable, and as yet no answer mas
been received from the Queen, although 1t IS ex-
pected that her c. Msswill interpose no serious
objection. >. .nS-
AT Macon the wire will connect With all the
other wires of the Union. The. estimate cost OF
the submarine cable will be $500 5000 per mile
and of the land wire 5000 $500. From Key
West to Havana will be 30 miles of cable, incin
ding the allowance Of slack Go d0e oSa SSst o,
ell included Columbia Guardian. .

Convenient Almanac. ,

Convenient Almanac.
.. friend the other day reminded US Of the lines
which the old folks, forty or fifty years ago, used
for an almanac: ,-..~
"At Dover Dwslls George Brown, Esquire, = e
Good Christian Finch and David Fryer
Almos. every thing contained in the almanac,
except the moons age, can be ascertained by the
use Of this apparent jargon.
In the first place, let the day Of the week upon
which January commences be represented by the
letter A. and the other letters in ther proper Or
der will denote the day upon which eaoh Of the
following month commences with the usual al
lowance, Of course in leap year: Bnt it can be
worked backwards as well as forwards. For in
stance, as to-day, the 18th Of August, is Friday,
we know that the month is commenced on Sunday,
which is represented by the word Christian -
The letter G, then, stands for Sunday, and will
denote Friday, the day on which the month OF
January began. ,s!x,
Suppose we wish to learn on what day OF the
week any given day of the year will fall the 2Oth
of September, for example: September is repre-
sented by the word "Fiuch," which will stand for
"Wednesday The first Of September, then, will
be Wednesday. and the Goth, Of course, Monday.
In fact with these lines, and the others, ''ThIr-
ty days hath September" Sc, one can carry his
