EUROPE.-ln view Of the certain results to the
commercial and money interests of this country
arising out of the late war and the present peace
it behooves the bank managers to hold tight
rein, or there will be financial trouble next fall
column yesterday, that many Of the banks in this
city are falling into the same error from which
all the mischief Of 1867 eventuated. The termi
nation Of the Crimean war found our banks com
paratively contracted; but the necessities of Ed
rope demanding large exports Of goods to this
market, By the sale of which to provide for the
expenses Of the war, our banks Immediately ex-
panded, until, like the frog in the fable, they
burst, ard disaster widespread and destructive
fell upon the commercial community. The des-
perate attempt they made to contract when the
coming storm was visible only increased the
trouble ard fastened it on.
Now, we perceive, the news of peace In Ed
rope finds many OF our banks expanded to unsafe
proportions. Let these rash institutions take
warning in time. The experience of two year
ago should teach them something. Are we going
to have another such revulsion as that Of 1857?
He Is WRITING ANOTHER MANrFEsro.-We are
positively assured by the Chevalier Forney, who
speaks upon the subject like q man having
authority, that at Washington Judge Douglas is
preparing, has nearly finished, and will shortly
publish to the world, another manifesto on
"squatter sovereignty" We have no objection.
Peace having been concluded between the late
belligerent Powers in Italy, we are prepared
either for an armistice or declaration of war
from Mr.. Douglas The Northern States are,
their delegates to Charleston; and in this view,
we dare say, the friends Of Mr.. Douglas may feel
the need Of his assistance

IF these athletic exercises are persevered in
our young men will all become gymnasts, and
we shall have material in this country for such a
volunteer army as the world never saw before.
The games of cricket and base ball may be said
to be the rival games Of England and America,
the latter being peculiar to this country; and Oh
the two we think it is the better game for deve-
Looping the muscles and improving the conforma
ton of the chest and body generally, for the rea
son that while cricket is played good deal on
the stoop, and with the head downwards in base
ball the head is mostly erect, the face turned up
wards and the stroke made with uplifted arms
and consequent expansion of the chest Next
to swimming, which is the finest exercise in the
world-all the muscles being brought into full
play, while the body is extended with a graceful
curve, and the head elevated to its natural posi-
tion-we think base ball is the best exercise Row
ing, too, has the peculiar advantage Of bringing
every muscle into action, from the fingers to the
very toes, at the same time that the motion of
the arms is an exercise for the chest, like that OF
the dumb bell.
A great cricket match is to come off at Hobo
ken during the first or second week in Septem.
Der, between eleven English and twenty-five
American players. In abiding to this game,
our Canadian neighbor, the Montreal Advertiser,
remarks that the American players are English
by BIRTH" and, in the same spirit which evoked
the comment of the English journal referred to-
complacently adds" Nobody supposes that
native Americans can play cricket, or any other
game requiring muscular force, agility and en-
dmance." We were under the impression that
some games requiring all these qualities were
pretty well played at Bunker Hill and Chippewa
and if our neighbor would pay visit to the
Central Park when its ball ground is in good
order, we promise him that he will see a little
more of it there among our base ball clubs.
Another manly and healthful exercise we are
glad to perceive, is becoming very popular-that
is horse riding. Most of our young men who
can afford it keep good riding horses, and In
spirtiDg exercise in the saddle is fast supersedng
the less useful one in the wagon or the sulkey
In year or two we shall have a display Of horse
flesh and borsemanship in the Central Park that
no city in the world need blus for.
Let Us 60 ahead with our athletic sports, for
when we have tough muscles and broad chests
we will want no doctors.

Mr.. BRECKENRIDGE AND THE KENTUCKY DE-
MoCRACY.-There is an active faction of the de.
mocracy Of Kentucky opposed to the Presiden.
tial or Senatorial aspirations of Vice President
Breckenridge. The Paducah Herald, prominent
democratic paper of said State, says there is
suspicion afoat that the friends of Mr.. Breckin.
ridge are ''manGuvring to give the vote of Ken
lucky in the Charleston Convention in favor of
the odious heresles of Douglas" and even "for
Judge Douglas himself as the nominee for the
Presidency, If found that the Vice President can
not get the nomination" And, accordingly, Mr..
Breckenridge is warned that he can never get
from the Kentucky democracy q hearty support
while this aforesaid suspicion continues to exis.
in their minds. But the truth is that the special
difficulty with the Vice President is a Kentucky
rival In the person Of Mr.. Guthrie, poor Pierce's
Secretary of the Treasury. And so, in all pro
liability, Kentucky, between these two men, like
Virginia between Wise and Hunter, or New York
between Dickinson and Seymour, or Georgia be-
tween Cobb and Stephens Or Mississippi between
Davis and Brown, will fail to get the Charleston
nomination. New York, either upon Marcy or
Dickinson, might have secured the Baltimore no
mination of 1852 had either consented to give
way to the other. But the celebration Of New
York were stubbornly divided between Marcy
ard Dickinson, and SO the Convention finally
settled down upon Pierre VIII this not be the
game at Charleston If Wise and Dopglas can be
shaken OK Very likely; aad ii loy cant be

The "Whigs' Of Lexington, Missouri,
have recently nominated Judge Bates as
a Presidential candidate. The Missouri
Democrat thinks the Opposition Conven-
ton of the State will endorse his nominal
ton. But Aadds:
"Yet we feel assured that his candida
would be altogether contingent on the
Union Of the Opposition. He would in
stanily retire from the position in which
the Wings and Free. soiIers Of Missouri
will probably place him, unless their ac-
ton should receive the sanction of the
Republican party. His name win not be
lent to those, if such there be. who con-
template keeping a third party in the
field, or who refuse to admit that the ex-
pulsion Of the National Democracy from
power is the paramount duty Of all good
citizens IN the present critical situation of
affairs. He may consent TO lead a united
host, but never a disafected division"

Horrible Accident.

A terrible accident occurred at Te-
kamah on Monday last, which is likely
to result in the death of Mr.. Augustus
Macon, an attorney living in this city. II
appears that Mr.. Macon had visited Te-
kama for the purpose of attending Court
which was in Session at that place, and
in attempting to take from his buggy a
loaded shot gun, the weapon was accident
ly discharged, the load takiag effect in
Mr.. Macon's face, tearing away the
whole of the lower jaw and a part Of the
upper, and otherwise horribly m~utilating
him. Physicians from this city immedi-
ately repaired to the scene of the acct
dent, and have been in attendance upon
the unfortunate man all the week, with
however no hopes of his recovery. A
report prevailed in the city last nightthat
Mr.. Macon had died; whether true or
not, II is not possible that he can survive
many days.-0mdhd Nebraskaan.

Kicked again.

The correspondent of the St. Louis
Republican, the leading Democratic jour
nal Of Missouri, writing from Washing
ton, thus speaks of the Washington, Con-
stitution :
"The editor Of the Constitution, Brig
adier-G General George Washington Bow
man; is rendering himself the butt Of the
community here by his silly attacks upon
Washington orrespondents.' OF course,
every one a perceive tile motive which
prompts the impotent blow, but there is
10 one who has sufficient respect for the
'orgaR-grindeP to pity his mbecility.-
Poor old man! The fable Of the frog at
tempting the proportions of the OK is Wv
idly brought to mind. The editor Of a
little one-horse Pennsylvania paper at
tempting ~jOurnalisrnat Washington The
result is, the organ is read by only a few
hundred persons, and they are regarded
as below contempt. Bowman's ignorance
is only equalled by his Impotence and
disregard for TRUTH

From the Mines.

IL
Returning miners are now constantly
arriving at almost all the points along The
river. Many have reached here within
a few weeks past, all Of whom have met
with such encouragement, as to determines
them to return again in the Spring.
The past week, the brothers oliver and
Madison CoTToN, who, with Mr.. Fields
.WenffromthIs place last Spring have re-
turned. They have been working in
what is known as Russell's Diggings, in
the mountains. Mr.. Oliver Cotton, with
whom we have ~conversed, informs us
their wages-the three men--have va
RED from twenty to Two hundred and thir-
ty dollars per day. He says all men in
the mountains are doing well. One
quartz crushing machine is now in oper-
alton in that portion of the mines where
they were at work, and a number more
are being put up for Spring work. With
out crushing mills the miners are unable
to get more than one-half the gold they
dig out. The Indians are quiet towards
the whites ; their only difficulties being
among themselves.
