A VICTIM OF MISPLACED CONF
DENCE-Axiom Lundy, a colored man
residing with Col Lundy, about ten miles

morning and brought a dOu~ble-baFreIied
gun to have repaired, and somehow con
traeted the acquaintance Of a couple of
freedmen. Who manifested the greatest
possible friendship for an interest Ia the
sey-erida7f Mr.. LundT. Together the
party repaired 10 a guusmita's shop, and
Axiom explained that he wished q tube
replaced, and promised 10 call for 10 in
one hour. When about half the time
had expired, one Of his newly acquired
comrades returned 70 the store, and hay
ing heard from himself the name OF the
man leaving the weapon, called for it,
and paying the triding charge walked or
with his prize. The smith, not suspect
ing any foul play, until Axiom returned
and asked for the gun, already delivered
go one Of the men who had accompanied
him on his first visit 20 the shop. Axiom
Wsnt off 10 consult a friend, resident
in the city, and somewhat more wide
awake than the country gentleman and
whilst talking 10 him CA Front street,
espied one Of his treschsrous friends
whom he promptly eollared, and insisted
on restitution. The party thus arrested
stoutly denied all knowledge Of the mat
ter, but was compelled 10y Axiom 10 re-
turn with him 10 the ~guHsmith's, who
identified him IS the person to whom
the gun had been delivered. The police
opportunely being on the spot, the fellow
was handed over for confinement but -
yet Axiom has not recovered his gun, or

FINANCIAL.

The general feeling OF uueaslness that has
pervaded monetary circles for some days past
continues to increase, and the rapid decline o.
Gold, and the probabilities OF a return TO d
specie basis, seems TO have taken every one by
surprise, and created a "panickyp feeling In
the minds OF many OF the bankers, which, we
fear, viii have n bad effect upon business gen.
orally.
Exchange remains very firm at former quo
iauons, and viii continue so until there rs a
move IN Cotton.
Gold has not touched Cotton yet, and the
hopes entertained by holders OF a reaction, and
very little Encouragement in the present condi-
lion OF the market. The few transactions that
we heard of Yesterday were at the following
rates: buying. 27aes, aud selling at SO8S05.
Currency Is daily becoming scarcer, aud the
bankers are holding on TO 1t with a tenaeliy
that certainly porieuds a worse state OF things
ahead; and some of them do not hesitate in
predicting a panic, at an early day, should the
present state OF affairs continue.
The feeling ln the Uncurrent Money market
is improving, and rates are looking up.
