Mr.. Eiheridge told him he should not
be hurt. But he felt like abusing one
Radical to his hearts content, and he would
practice about fifteen minutes on him. The
practice was a complete success-as never
was man more unsparingiy 'excoriated and
skinned before. |

The Crash Coming.

The metropolitan Record gives a
fearful picture Of ths present state
of the country. That well informed
Journal says:
Every man doubts his neighbor ::
the merchants complain more and
more Of accumulating stock, with no
buyers coming in from the country,
and notthe rcmotest inhcations of the
spring trade; the foreign bankers are
sending back by every steamer gov
ernment bonds by tie million; the
mechanics and laborers are going
about idle, and only living upon the
surplus earning, Of last sumner
The ship yardNare silent; most Of
the great manufactures in the coun-
try, that ordilarily employ hundreds
of operatives, have closed their
doors; there re no new buildings
going up, no :ailroads making, no
canals digging; those who have gold
hold on to it, md people who have
money are un7illing to lend it on
stocks, bonds, or railway shares, as
they know tha the only thing that
imparts valueto these promises to
pay is the stability of the govern
men that guanntees them, and as
the Radicals IRE now at work to
revolutionize that government, they
are not foos enough to part
with present something for pos
sible nothing.
Men of pro,erty and substance
stand aghast tt the anarchical and
revolutionary aspect of the future IS
viewed through the medium Of things
at Washington. Unless there be a
remarkably sudden change of policy
on the part of hose who are aiming
to subvcrt the government,
the country will experience
financial and commercial
crash, compared with which all pre-
vious collapses will seem but ripples
on the wave-burying rich and poor
alike in common ruin, and inAicting
such blow upon the material well
