The Crash in Paterson.

The Paterson banks refuse to cash checks on the
New York banks, but they will pay their own on
demand, whatever their size. This is a good deal
better than the city banks will do. The Paterson
banks are considered as solvent and substantial as
any In the country. One hundred and seventy-fve
men were discharged from the Grant Locomotive
Works In Paterson yesterday on account OF the
hard times. over 1,500 men have been discharged
from various Paterson establishments during the
past week.
In Passaic and other places great difficulty Is ex-
perienced in getting small bills, and some OF the
establishments were unable to pay of their en-
pl0yes In consequence.

been earlully thinned out by sickness and death.

the comns pushed into the nearses and drawn
rapidly to the cemetery. This Is the case even
with the most prominent citizens
The Howards have opened an orphan asylum and
are feeding about tw0thrds OF the resident popu-
lation. There are lever deaths and new cases, be-
cause there are fewer people. The physicians ap-
pointed q committee last week to investigate the
origin Of the epidemic, and evidence has already
been collected showing beyond question that the
fever was imported here from Cuba. Drs Chopin.
Bruins and Davidson, who are here from New Or
leans, are fully satisfied on this point.
The Shreveport Times of to morrow morning win
contain the following appeal, which the Howard
Association earnestly request the press OF the
country to publish:
epidemic that has already swept away more than
400 of the community. is still raging with unabated
fury IN our midst. We have now at least 100 sick
OF all ages, sexes, color and natonalities, all OF
whom, from the peculiar character OF the disease.
require constant and sklful nursing. In addition
to this there are hundreds OF people left without
cent and without employment. Among these are
many women and little children. All Of
them must, for the present, be provided for
and fed by the Howard Association 1Or there is no
work to do and no money to be had. The destltu-
tion in midst is as heartrending as the disease
itself, and there Is a fearful number OF deaths. The
drain upon the funds OF the ASSOCIATE ~ has thua
far been enormous and the liberal and sent us by
sister cities is nearly exhausted Under these
painful circumstances we are forced to make this
general appeal to the country for additional aid.
We have people among US suffering in want, ana
dying, from all sections Of the Union and from all
nations, and we feel that the great public heart
Will respond to this appeal, cxtorted by the most
dire necessity.
Our own resources are nearly exhausted Tho
wealthy are broken down; the poor are threatened
with actual starvation; the sick and dying are
about to be deprived Of the commonest comforts
humanity can offer them. We appeal not to our
fellow cOuntrymen, but to our fellow mon, tor aid.

CHICAGO, Ill, Sept 20, 1873
The financial prospects in this city this morning
are decidedly brighter. The Union National the
Cook County National and the National Bank OF
Commerce opened their doors and resumed busi-
ness at the usual hour this morning, and although
they have paid out considerable money there is
nothing that can be called run upon
either OF them, while there have been
considerable deposits made The innux
country continues TO be large not less than
81, 000, 900 having been received during Saturday
and Sunday. OF this incoming currency good
proportion goes directly into the banks and
the rest into the hands OF commits
sion merchants for the purchase OF grain by outside
parties. But it all tends to relieve the present
stringency. SO far as can be learned there IL no
urgent demand from country banks upon their cor
respondents here and IN all quarters confidence
appears to be returning. This view of the situation
Is based upon interviews with number OF prOmi-
nent bankers and business men.
