Letter from Washington.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-The tinanclers of
the Radical party. who have been managing
the finances, were not prepared for the news
from New York and other cities, OF failures of
some of the largest houses in the country
These failures are, it is feared, but tine com
mencement OF financial crisis, which may come,
and arc the consequences, in some respects, OF
the "acts Of Congress" regulating finance, and
the uncertainty in regard to the policy OF the
Secretary Of the Treasury. But the effect
general financial CONFUSION would have upon
the prospects Of the dominant party. produces
with the Radical leaders great dsquiet and
anxiety hence the news III received by them a
most unfortunate at this time, when their plans
Tor Shaving off the evil day" seemed SO well
devised, aud So sure OF contamination. The
financial "criSs" which these failures indicate,
is feared by Radical leaders principally because
the increased sufferings Of the people which
must result from it will be too great for end ur
auce, aud must arouse feeling oil Indignation
against liz authors which cannot be counter'
acted, and result in the destruction Of their
cherished hopes for retention in power.

ANOTHER MINING lloRRoR. yesterday
moralag we had to record L miniature Avon

at the end OF tunnel IN the Jersey coal nine
operated bV the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad Company. All, however,
except one victim, escaped on this OCCASION
To day We publish the shocking details Of still
another mining horror in Pennsylvania. a coal
mine at Stockton. near llaz.lton, cavcd in
early on Saturday, filling the shalt and tunnel
with huge mssses OF rock, carrying down forty
feet two double houses which the stoves set on
FIRE, and choking the entrance to the mine, in
which there were at the time several men, who
are supposed to have been instantly killed.
The inmates OF one of the double houses, warn
ed by the barking of dog, fortunately escaped,
although one person fell into the mine and
narrowly missed perishing. The inmates OF the
other double house, ten in number seven
adults and three children-were buried hope
lessly in the ruins. No bodies have yet been
discovered. -Nao York Herald.
