The present condition Of our leading ON
mercial houses Is calculated to alarm the
minds Of the most careless and reckless. and
make people reflect seriously on the causes Of
such state of affairs. Everywhere the same
complaints Of utter stagnation OF trade are
heard, and the largest establishments are con-
Quoting their business on scale equal only to
some small retailer, or one-tenth OF their usual
requirements. As a consequence Of this gene
raj dulness In trade, hundreds are thrown out
OF employment, and the city IL filed with
clerks, statesmen, sesmstresses and others
unable to procure the means Of daily subsist
ence. Aglance at the advertising columns of the
HERALD, will be sufficient to convince any one
Of the immense increase Of " situations wanted
Is has been estimated that there are no less
than ten thousand women in this city seeking
employment in any capacity by which food
and shelter may be procured. The list Of COM
merciaI failures this year is almost sufficient TO
cause strong feeling of distrust aud suspicion
among all circles and auction sales are extern
sively resorted TO by some Of the largest firms
to keep up their business.
Now, this Is a very serious state OF things.
and the causes should be made known 10 the
entire country. Some OF our oldest and
most discerning merchants ascribe The stag
nation OF trade to the unsettled state OF
the country, owing TO the persistent exclusion
by Congress Of ten important States from com.
mercial rs well as political rights and privi-
leges; TO the ruinous financial policy OF the
government in the contraction Of the currency.
and the pesiilential national banks: to the too
frequent and needlessly long sessions Of Con-
gfess, and the constant meddling with the tariff,
and to the gigantic frauds which are daily per-
pssrated with immunity by iIlegitimase traders.
The Southern trade, which has always been Of
vital importance TO the commercial interests Of
the nation, Is now Frustrated by the suicidal
fanatcism Of the radicals in Congress. Not
content with iuJuring trade In this particular
they paralyze il completely by constantly
holding over our merchants heads threat, Of
legislation OF the most pernicious and Contra
dicsory kind. Then, to finish the woGk, we

DR.. Livingstone. tho African Explorer.
The telegraphic despatch which we published
yesterday, contradicting the reports of the
death Of DIR. Livingstone, and announcing that
this bold and enterprising traveller was safe
and well in April last, at which date be was
exploring the wastes Of Africa hundreds OF
miles from the sea coast, gave universal plea
sure. We have already minated that Sir Rod
erick Aurchison and the other members Of the
Royal Geographical Society were probably
right In their convictions that the testimony in
reference to bis death was unreliable. There
is 30 deep and general an interest not only in
the personal welfare Of DR.. Livingstone, but
also in the important results which both Africa
and the civilized world are likely to reap from
his explorations, that we earnestly hope the
latest reports Of his safety may be confirmed.
The suspense and anxiety regarding the fate OF
the great African explorer have been a. pain
full, but, happily, less prolonged than in the
melancholy case Of Sir John Franklin.

The Evening Telcgrnm and O'Germaa.
There is strutty, pompous, loud-voiced
bantam Of paper called the Evening Tele-
gram, which might more properly be called the
Evening Balderdash. This self-conceited sheet
assumes to discuss city politics quite in the vein
and tone of its bigger brothers, the morning
dailies. And this lofty style from such small
source has very ridiculous effect Among
the more notable Of these attempts in the
Telegram ia its late effort to defend O'Gor-
man in the case made against that worthy by
our venerable silverstick in waiting, Peter
Cooper. Peters honesty not only makes him
terror to oil chaps who cannot keep their &C
counts straight, but his delicious civilities to
the Prince OF Wales, on the occasion Of that
worthy visit, make him horror and disgust
to all Irishmen. Therefore nobody can de-
fend any member Of our city government
without speaking a. disrespectfully OF Peter as
Sidney Smiths grandmother did of the equa-
tor. For our own part, we would not say a
word against O'Gormap. He is fine, even
superfne, specimen Of the real old Irish gentle
man who lived in the days before that beggarly
Euclid-bad cess to him Invented mathsma-
tics, and trouble and accounts, and stuff Of that
sort, and brought into the world the mean
minded idea that people should have things Of
their own. He is fine relic Of those days. A
sweet, frolicsome, exuberant, bubblng nature
is O'Gorman, that never could do dishonest
act, and therefore never dreamed that any one
else could-and never looked out for il, 70
see-and so became the dupe Of the dirty ras-
Gals Of native born rogues that are constantly
robbing the treasury--tbe blackguards But
why could not the Telegram defend and save
O'Gorman without pitching into worthy old

Three Of the mon convicted of participation
In the riot at Manchester, in England, during
which tho Fenian prisoner Kelly and Deasy
were rescued from the custody Of the police,
and one Of the policemen, Brett, was murdered
by the mob, suffered death upon the scafF0ld
yesterday, all the efforts to obtain commuta-
ton Of the extreme sentence Of the law having
failed. Extensive preparations had been
made by the authorities to meet and
quell any disturbance; but the Tears or an
outbreak proved groundless, and the cable
dispatches inform US that the city Of Manches-
ter, where the executions took place, was quiet
during the day and evening. Five persons in
oil were tried and convicted of the crime, one
of whom was pardoned after sentence, and
another respited. The three who suffered
death were all young men, and seem to have
borne good characters previous 20 the unfortu-
nate affair ia which they became implicated.
The death Of these men will create : pro-
found sensation throughout the civilized world,
while the reckless and hopeless attempts of
the Fenians to excite . rebellion against the
British government are to be deplored as only
tending to destroy human life and to increase
the suferings Of the oppressed Irish people.
England win meet with little sympathy
from other nations in her domestic
troubles. When the position she took during
our own rebellion IL remembered, the United
States might well be justified in con-
demning her severity towards her own
political offenders as barbarous and brutal.
Hundreds Of thousands Of lives have been sac
rifced by the acts of the traitors with whom
England sympathized on this side Of the
Atlantic, and not one has suffered an ignomin-
ious death, except for the crime Of wilful MUIR
der or revolving inhumanity to prisoners Of
war. But the rescue of two prisoners and the
shooting Of one officer during riot on British
soil has cost three Of the participants their
lives upon the scafFold.
Whether the triple execution will lay the
terrible Fenian ghost in Ireland and England
remains to be seen. 1t may check any more
outbreaks for awhile, bat it Is not ct all impro-
bable that it may rankle in the minds Of the
masses, and in the end bring forth even more
bitter fruit than the tree Of Fenianism has yet
produced.
