raF RISE ARD FAIL OF A GREAT
FIRM.

From the Troy IN. T. fines
10 1874 the great grocery house of Dem
ison Belden, of New York, failed. This
WAS q most unexpected misfortune, for
they we're an old and extensive concern,
and were supposed to be rich. They num-
bered among their clerks two brothers of
fine personal appearance, easy manners,
and of established honesty. They were
popular statesmen, and being very ambi-
tious they determined at once to commence
a small jobbing trade on their own account.
Accordingly the new firm of j. K. & E. B.
Place appeared among the merchants of
New York. The efforts Of these young
men we're first to live and pay expenses,
which they did and more than that, they
got good name for promptness and bust
ness ability, and their trade increased until
they began to make money. Things ran
on for ten years, and the firm got rich, and
at the commencement of the war they were
to be found il Broad street, among the
heavy operators. All dealers in groceries
now made enormous profts. Some men
made more money ia one year than during
all their previous lives. Among others
the Places operated heavily aud made
enormous SUNS, enough, indeed, to have
turned the heads of two plain North river
men as they had BEEN. At any rate they
now moved into Front street, the grand
center of the trade, the grocers' mart,
where goods are handled by the cargo, and
here their success still continued They pur-
chased real estate, they commenced a sugar
refinery and they moved invoices of tea,
coffee, and similar goods with as much ease
in faVuaar Aaus Kill
for country merchants. In 1866 the Pla-
ces were at their highest point of sue
cess. They owned houses in the Fifth
avenue; they had cash in the bank in
heavy deposits; they had enormous guam
titles of goods, and though not Fifty years
old they were worth 100000; all of
which had been made ia less than twenty
years. il was a time of expansion, when
wise men were predicting storm, and
were taking in their canvas; hut the lucky
merchants thought they bore charmed
life, aud so they held their Onward way.
Suddenly came collapse Sugar fell at
a fearful rate for holders, If not for con-
SINNERS, aud they held great quantities.
Coffee also fell tea fell and in this way
splendid fortune wasted away. The Places
were not men to publish their losses, and
no one knew the extent of their misfoI-
tunes. Their credit was as yet unimpaired,
and they made use of it with the hope of
reproducing their losses. This effort was
in vain, the worst of their fears were real
lied, and in the fall of 1867 the CONNER
cal world was astounded by the failure of
this once eminent house. They met their
creditors with the assurance that their as
sets were sufficient to meet their debts, but as
is common in such great failures the losses
increased, and the result is general ruin.

hundred names of white voters had been
recently stricken from the list, among
whom we're almost the entire list of chsl-

is giving his supporters good deal
of trouble. 1t was an official promul-
CATION of gross and injurious calum-
ny. 1t was the attempt of one entrust-
ed with share of the governing pow
er, to draw invidious distinctions
among the white citizens of the coun
try, and to set apart one ella s for per-
secution, on account of their religion
and their race. AS a crime, therefore.
against the forms and principles of
republican equality, it is obnoxious to
the rebuke of every freeman's vote,
whether lew or Gentle tits not sur
prising, then, that the Radical press
feel keenly the importance of relieving
their candidate from the odium of his
order; but, we must say, that the way
in which they go about it is very sur
prising indeed. Some of them impu-
IDENTIFY pretend that the order itself
was inoffensive and proper. Others.
with equal effrontry, deny that Gener-
al Grant had anything to do with it, or
was in any way responsible for its ap
pearance. Both of these pretenses are
destitute alike Of truth and plausibility.
