FINANCIAL DISTRESS AT THE FAR WEST.
From gentlemen who have recently re-
turned from the West, we receive melancho-
" accounts of the state of financial matters
in that region. The effect of inflated, ex-
tended, extravaganza speculations in wild
lands and town lots has recoiled with great
force upon not only the capitalists who have
invested their money, but upon the enter
prising pioneers who, while building up the
material interests of the country, used their
spare money and their credit in purchasing
new lands and estates. The crash of '57
brought down judgments numberless upon
the devoted heads of thousands of individ-
uals of this class in Iowa and Minnesota,
and ruined men who would have been rich
had they sold out before the crisis.
More than one of the men who were the
first to plant civilization in the bowling
wilderness, who have built up cities and
towns, were offered extravagant prices for
their property and refused them. Instead
of selling out and securing competency Of
real capital, they involved themselves in
debt, and when the crisis came, which swept
away the weak banks and bankers of that
region, their property was patched over
with judgments, and large proportion OF
it will have to be sacrificed for less than q
quarter of its real value
We have heard of many individual cases
of peculiar hardship. One man from New
Orleans invested 80, 900 in st. Paul a few
years since, and few months ago he de-
termined to "realize" upon it. He sold it
for eighteen hundred dollars!
A gentleman who lives in Minnesota in
forms US that a few days since he was pass
ing through the streets of st. Paul and saw
one of the citizens, who had been large
dealer in real estate, chopping down his well
the reason of proceeding so cratic and
apparently so rash. "Come into the yard
and I'll tell you, said the chopper, and he
proceeded to state that he had been unable
to collect a cent of moneys due him, foI
some time, and borrowing was out of the
question. He had not stick of wood in
his house to cook his dinner with, and as be
objected to starving and freezing, he was
sacrificing the well curb to his absolute ne
cessities.
In Davenport, Iowa, gentleman who
with a partner, transacted the heaviest grain
and lumber business done in that section OF
the. country, is now earning his bread by
driving an express wagon. The city Of
Davenport is dead broke. No watchmen
no gas, no money in the city treasury &c
pay for anything. Iowa is, in fact, worse
off than Minnesota, where good crop OF
wheat was raised for expectation last year
Two good crops will restore the North-west
to something like prosperity. But the pres
sure it isnow undergoing will ruin thousand:
of individuals, and check the general growth
of that region for several years-BostOn

Our Position.


The position of the Opposition of Wander
burgh county is set forth in the resolutions
adopted on Saturday last. That position,
we believe to be a true expression of the
political opinions of majority of the voters
of this county, as applied to the state of af-
fairs to be acted upon in 1860.
The resolutionsareth the work of committee
of five gentlemen who represent the various
branches of the Opposition as composed
here. The committee adopted them unani-
mously, after full and free discussion; and
the meeting to which they were submitted,
ratified the work of the committee without
the expression of a word of dissent.
The Opposition of the First District, and
of the State at large, now have the position
of Vanderburgh county before them. We
are confident that it will be pronounced just
and reasonable-not fanatical on the one
hand, nor yet cowardly or evasive on the
other. 1t is such platform as the State
can be carried upon, with candidates to
suit.
The presentation of the name of James
G. Jones, Esq, for the Attorney General
ship, was made for various reasons--1. His
eminent qualifications for the office. 2. His
popularity in this part of the State. 3.
The fact that his nomination by the Conven-
ton of the 22d, on a platform approxima-
ting in spirit to that adopted here, will give
the large body of old line Wings and
Americans in Southern Indiana assurance
of the good faith which doubtless actuates
the more extreme portions of the proposed
coalition, in the formation of a party COM
posed of all the elements of opposition to
the Administration.
The instructions in favor of Hon A LANCE,
of Vigo county. for the nomination as Aud
itor of State, were called for by the general
sentiment in his favor, not only on the part
of the foreign-born, but also among native
citizens. Mr.. LANCE is known over the
whole State to be well qualified, and a
worthy man in every respect for the place.
He possesses the affections of his fellow
eountrymen, and at the same time is an old
citizen of this country and State, with thor.
oughly Americanized feelings and interests
We wish TO remark on our own RESPONSE
bility, that the large majority of the com,
mittee and meeting were in favor of ar
expression for Hon. Edward Bates for the
Presidency, and we are confident that nint
Out of ten of the Oppositionistso of the County
are of the same mind But inasmuch a!
one gentleman on the committee was favor
able to another prominent gentleman spoken
of for that Office, but opposed to any ex-
preston whatever in favor of anybody, even
for the man of his choice-it was thought
best not to instruct at all for that office
The committee desired the action to be al
