The Camp Meeting.
In point Of numbers and decorum the camp
meeting held At Desplaines was great sac-
ctes. The attendance yesterday WIS estima.
ted at ten thousand peraons-more than half
Of whom come BY privste conveyance. Two
Immense trains from this city went up, con-
,eying not less than ! s,c0) people. The return
train which lett the Desplains Station at 6
O'Clock, consisted Of SO cars, each filed to
oye,1iowlrg. The police arrangements we're
most excellent. Sheriff Hesing and his Depu-
tics preserved perfect order, and prevented all
disturbance, roise, confusion and everything
else which might tend to disturb the solemni-
II Of the exercises.
The grove In which the meeting was held is
one Of the finest for such purpose we hare
ever seen. The temperature Of tho dny was
exceedingly pleasant. Bishop Simpson
preached the forenoon discourse. It
was pronounced by all to be one Of the
greatest, most eloquent and convincing
sermons which they ever had heard. The dis
conrseby Rev, DR.. Tiffany in the afternoon was
exceedingly able aud eloquent. We have not
space this morning for an extended report of
yesterdays doings.

BUSINESS FA1LrRE.-As when, among the
reports from the battlefield, come tidings Ct
the fate Of one about whose fall cluster more
than common associations of sadness, even
while general sympathy is extended to al
victims, SO in season like the present, Of fre
qucnt commercial disaster, q mora than ordi.
nary regret will be awakened in very many ol
oIr citizens by the intelligence Of the assign.
ment Of the well-known dry goods house oi
T. B. Carter.
Mr.. Carter is the Oldest merchant in his line
in Chicago. During the long period Of years
that he has been in trade here, his name has
been tcWsr Of commercial strength, I'm.
shaken even when, in former times of panic
and pressure, other merchants fell about him.
AID he has possessed such traits Of head and
heart that his prosperity was public advan-
tege. Foremost in good word and work, the
mtans that have been placed in his hands have
found him ever generous almoner. 1t must
be consolation to him at this time, that with
the urshaken security Of such deposits he has
liberal investments in generous deeds done,
where no fsilure Of banks or u stumptail' - can
reach them.
Ne are writing Of our Oldest dry goods mer-
chant, but the term is relative one, and ours
young city. The regret at the embarrass.
ment in the affairs Of G merchant held III 30
high esteem in cur community will be gen
eral ore, and equally so the hop c that the re.
turn Of better days to the commercial world
will restore Mr. Carter, who is yet In the
prime Of manhood, to his former position Of
prominence in our business community.
There is a reputation far above credit at
banks, character for social and christian
virtues whose foundations stand high and
sure above financial disaster, and such Mr.
Carter possesses. His brother, A1r. Asher
Carter, has been made his assignee, the names
g both 3 guarsntGe widely recognized that
whatever honesty and enterprise can do to
make the assets pay dollar for dollar will be
Gone.
