The Excftsmont I'm wall strset-First
Fruits OF nKtrsvsgsnce and Eypsn-
siOn.
The public Is terribly excited about Wall
street, and Wall street Is tremendously excited
over recent financial revelations. The flight Of
young Ketchum, with valise full Of green
backs; the suspension of the old and respecta-
BILE firm of Ketchum, Son & Co.; the failure Of
Graham 4 Co., Ketchum's brokers, and the dis
covery that several banks are holding about two
and half millions of dollars worth Of forged
certificates for gold, have come close upon the
heels Of the Windsor and Jenkins defalcations
and the robbery Of the New Haven Savings
Bank, and have caused decided panic. Men
eye their neighbos with suspicion, and know
not what institution to trust Stockholders are
rushing into the market to sell their shares.
We give in the following table list Of the
leading shares sold on Monday and yesterday,
and it will be seen that over eight times as
many shares were disposed Of under the in
duence of yesterdays panic as on the compar-
ativsly quiet Monday. This incrssssis astound.

OF course stocks have fallen under this pres
sure upon the market Many speculator who
is enjoying himself at Saratoga or Newport,
dashing about four-in-hand, drinking the richest
wines aud imagining himself rich man, will
find himself poorer than the famous turkey Of
job when he comes to look over the stock list
to-day. On Tuesday the prices of stocks
fell OF largely from Mondays quotations,
and yesterday there was further decline.
Although the decline may not seem very
heavy as yet to fnancers like ours, who
are not unaccustomed to sudden jumps up and
down of ten or twenty per cent, still 1t is
marked and general enough to show the extent
of the panic, and it will certainly breed more
financial disasters In the following table we
compare the quotations for Monday and yes
terday of the leading names on the stock list
at the first session of the Board Of Brokers, and
mark the decline:-

SPECIE PAYMENTS PRACTICABLE.-We have
been without specie circulation in this coun-
try since the LIST Of January, 1862, period Of
over three and halt years, during which time
the business of our tradespeople has been car
ried on with government shinpasters and ire
deemable paper, and the purchaser has not
only been forced to submit to all the annoy
ances incident thereto, but has been subject to
the heaviest extortions, and the most exorbi-
tant prices, which the depreciation Of the cur
rency could possibly render an excuse for.
The war being over and peace again restored
to the country, the people are beginning to
wonder when "the constitutional currency" as
they understand the term, is to be again
returned to them; but there lie nobody who
seems willing or able to give the desired infor-
nation. The government has recently been
throwing half million or more of gold daily
upon the market for the purpose OF keeping
down the premium, but II has only succeeded
in reducing the value two or three per cent,
which will be regained, and even higher rates
be established, "a soon as the Sub-Treasury sup
ply ceases. There Is but one way TO perma-
ncntly bring down the price of gold, and that
Is to reduce the volume Of paper. The govern
ment now boasts OF twenty-five 70 thirty mil
lions Of surplus cOip, which. 4 twe hundred

upon the misfortunes Of the country. They
have made the war carnival Of luxury. To
rob the government has become 90 notorious q
proceeding on the part Of officials, contractors
and agents, and has been treated so leniently,
as IL it were virtue rather than crime, that
we cannot wonder when cashiers and tellers
begin robbing their banks. Expenditures have
been so enormous that an ordinary fortune has
been squandered in year and good income
wasted in q month. The tales Of petroleum
princes have set people crazy, and
everybody has speculated more or less.
Windsor took money to mako . para
disc on Staten Island, where he could live
as well as the newly rich men he had heard 80
much about. Jenkins took money to give to
Earle to invest In stocks, and when that did
not bring him the return he expected, he took
more money to buy diamond rings for pretty
waiter girls and 6t up luxurious apartments for
courtssans, evidently imagining that these
were the pleasures in which really wealthy
people INDUCED. Townsend robbed savings
bank, and went OF to Europe to enjoy himself,
thinking 80 little Of his crime that he could
critioise the sermons delivered on the steamer.
An elegant establishment and handsome In
come were not sufficient for young Ketchum.
He speculated in order to grow richer |;
lost money, and became what he Is. These
men are but types of their classes. The present
defalcations may be forgotten, and the panic
subside and business 60 on as before; but the
cause of the evil remains, and unless our banks
and bankers are more strict, and our shoddy-
ties, gold gamblers and spectators less ram
pant, we shall have another batch of Grim
inalities and another panic TO record before
many weeks have passed.

The DARK RECORD OF One DAY.-The public
must have been struck with the record Of crime
contained in the issue Of the HERALD yester-
day, extending, as it did, to almost every class
Of society and including all kinds Of sins
against morality and law. The fearful record is
continued in to-day's paper. From the suspen-
sion Of prominent banking house, owing TO the
criminality Of one Of the firm 10 the suicide Of q
poor girl, who roamed the streets and lodged in
the ferry houses for three nights in misery and
despair, the list Is varied and alarming. The
fight of Wall street banker, after the alleged
commission Of forgeries to a fabulous amount;
the examination Of the Phenix Bank defaulter;
the murder Of policeman in Seventeenth
street by rowdy; the inquest in the case of
the slaughter on board the steamboat Arrow;
the arrest In England Of the New Haven saw
ings bank robber, and, in addition, the horrible
railroad massacre nesr Bridgeport--all these,
with minor cases Of crime, make up the dread
ful catalogue Of one days reports.
II would be difficult 10 divine the cause of
this accumulation of crime. II springs, no
doubt, from the loose morality Of the age Of
speculation and money greed in which we live;
the universal corruption which so thoroughly
pervadcs public life that IL has been commu-
nicated TO families aud individuals; and per-
haps as much as anything else to the vast ex-
pansion Of paper money circulation, which Is
leading thousands into habits Of extravaganza,
yecklessness and dissipation.

Massachusetts man in General Hooker. with his
headquarters at New York, a. commander Of
the Department Of the East, we have New
Yorker, in General Sickles, as commander OF
the military district Of Massachusetts,, with his
headquarters at Boston. We do not suppose
that either Of these fighting generals has very
arduous or perilous campaign before him but
it is still possible that the rampant disorgan-
izing abolition radicals Of Boston may furnish
some employment to General Sickles which
they little anticipate. He goes to Boston a.
the military servant and supporter Of the adj
ministration which these pestilent radicals are
evidently resolved to rule or ruin. Letthem be.
ware, therefore, in outing up their shines that
they go not too far, or otherwise they may find
themselves suddenly clapped into Fort Warren.
General Sickles is not the man to stand upon
trifles when he believes there is q necessity for
the exercise of military power in behalf Of law
and order. He is something of strict con-
structionist, and If necessary will be prompt in
bringing the military power exercised against
one set Of disturbing agitators at Richmond
pretty effectively to bear upon another set Al
Boston. "Sauce for tho goose will also do a.
sauce for the gander."
TIE KENTUCKY BoURBONs.-As Napoleon
said Of the French Bourbons, 80 1t appears to
be with the Kentucky Bourbons-"They never
forget anything, and they never learn any
thing" They cannot forget their "divine in
stituton" Of slavery, and they will not learn
that it is set aside, superseded, abolished and
defunct. According to the Congressional re-
suits Of their late election, we conclude that
they have elected Legislature opposed to tho
ratification of the constitutional amendment
abolishing slavery. They still stick to their
niggers, although the able-bodied Of them have
run away, and those who remain are not worth
having and although there is no chance Of
fighting of that inevitable amendment Such
are the Kentucky Bourbons. They were more
troublesome to President Lincoln than South
Carolina. They have been crooked and
crotchety from the beginning Of the war, and
they are stiil intractabls in their folly. Tho
leaders of The Kentucky Bourbons have, per-
haps, become oasc-hsrdened and demoralized
by Bourbon whiskey.

LITTLE RAYxosD ON ANDY JoHNsos.-I
little man Raymond, who, In conjunction VIZ
Thurlow Weed and queer lot Of confederate.<
has quite number OF axes to grind at Wash-
ington, has become exceedingly anxious IN
regard to the health Of President johnson.
Raymond thinks that the nrst duty Of the Pres
ident to himself and the county IL to take care
his health. We think so too. But the "Lit-
tie Villain" Is fearfully apprehensive that Il
President johnson should unfortunately be lost
to the country at this crisis we should be
thrown, North and South, into dreadful con-
dition of revolutionary discord and confusion
in the election Of new President. Now, it d
our hope and expectation that President John,
SON, in good health and strength, will be spared
yet for many years; but should he even now
be unexpectedly cut of, the event, although
source. of universal regret, would not throw
the country into chaos. The manifest destiny
Of this mighty people Is not dependent upon
the life of any man. It Is in their own hands.
and they will take care oft. ia Presidential
election were to become necessary even in the
interval to the regular meeting Of Congress, It
would be conducted % 6aIoIy uu0 quiouy -
the last election Of Abraham Lincoln. The Late
insurgent States, as thay now stand, would, BY
the last winters decision Of Congress respect
ing them, be left out. The loyal States would
have the election to themselves, and they, We
doubt not. regardless Of party, would find out
man as worthy to stand as the successor OF
candy johnson" as he is to stand in the shoes
of the lamented Lincoln.
We share in the general solicitude for the
health of President Johnson; but whatever may
happen to him or to any other individual, tho
country is safe enough; for it can never here
after be brought to face such fearful perils a.
those through which 1t has triumphantly passed.
The country is safe, because its destinies are
controlled by patriotic and intelligent people.
