L Magician Outwitted.

Vox.-Prof. Valentine Vox, the
Fentriloquist and Magician, exhibi-
ted without charge en- Wednesday
evening last in Reynolds Hall. Re
garding the tax imposed by the laws
of Tennessee rs cxhorbitant. he de-
clined the exaction Of a fee at the
door, but in the midst of his perfor-
nance, he announced that those who
chose to make a voluntary contribu-
ton could do so. and then proceeded
to carry around the la; in person, and
received snug little sum Of money.
This was deemed a violation Of the
law, and on next morning his effects
were attached, in the name of the
Clerk of Sullivan County Court for
the amount of his tax, which he sub
sequently paid, admitting that the
For Popui was greater than the Vo1
Pale,ttiii. and that the rennes-
seeans could practice a little slight Of
hand as deity as himself. His exhi-
bition was very good, though in moth
ing. very new. As Ventriloquist he

The Season. The ground hog was
due from his hole on the 10th
day Of March, but we are not advised
whether he was guilty Of the stupid
itv of coming time. If instead Of a
six weeks withdrawal from the gaze
CT cisilization, he had remained
twelve weeks IN his hole, emerging
therefrom on Sunday the 27th OF
April. he would have found the peach
crop myth, and the other fruits more
scarce, than good days in this anom-
alous season. We are at a loss
whether to attribute all this abomin-
able weather to the stupidity of the
a5ominable ground hog, or to the
a5onlinable Interference ofthe wealth
or bureau. Certain il is the signal
service finds the elements in sort of
tangle, which is sufficient TO wreck
the nervous system of any common
mortal. When it is unknown to the
ground hog. the signal service, and the

THE RESULT IN THE STATE.

Although we are without very full
returns from the state sufficient news
has been received to make it Ger tain
that the Democratic Liberal State tick
ct has been elected by majority of
about 5000. The Senate and Assem-
bly, is in doubt with the oh ances in fa-
vor of a Republican majority.
In the canvass just passed the Re
publicans have had many obstacles to
contend against, and a diversity Of in
terests had to be met, which proved
fatal to the party. But in having to
surrender this time We must recollect
Eat this is the "of year" with the Re.
puplicans, and to recover the lost
ground all that is necessary is the
proper kind of Congressional action
this winter. We must profit by this
defeat, and the lesson of the disaster
sho not be lost on .'''e Republican
party. We do not believe that the
party that succeeded yesterday is in
accord with the people of the State
nor do We believe it can long maintain
its ascendency.

NEW YORK, November 3.-The ba-
siness firm Of Fl. B. Clafin & Co. is
going on as quietly as usual, and they
are generally believed to be sound to
the core. Since the circulation of the
first stories impeaching the stability
of Clafin &Co. rumors of like danag-
ing character have cen started con-
corning the Central National Bank,
one Of the repositories Of the firm above
referred to-. With the intention of
arriving at the truth of the matter, the
Clearing. House Committee have made
an investigation into the affairs of the
bank, which was concluded this even
ing.
The committe reports that the de-
posts in the bank are amply secured
aud that the banks capital of $1,000
900 is, in their opinion, impaired to
the extent of $4,000.
/ One Of the employees of the bank
said to- day that this impairment had
its origin in the depreciation of securi-
ties held a. collateral on loans to men,
bers of the firm Of Hoyt, Sprague &c
Co., and their employees are engaged
in getting the accounts of the firm in
tc order, preparatory to their negotia-
tons with their creditors.
PROVIDENCE, R. I November s.
The prospect to-day is cheering. The
general opinion is that the worst is
over, and that the Sprague Company
will be able to discharge their obliga-
tons if their creditors are not too press
ing.
The Franklin Savings Bank will
probably resume business soon. The
few Directors will command public
confidence. The Cranton Savings
Bank has not so cheering a prospect,
the value of deposits depending main
| y on the issue of the Spragues affairs.
The bank will pay in full, undoubted-
y, if the Spragues obligations are met
within a reasonable time. All the
mills of the Spragues are running half
time, as during the past week.
A call for meeting of the Sprague
creditors was issued this afternoon.
Whether the A. 4 w. Sprague Manu-
featuring Company stands or falls large
ly depends on the action of the oredi.
tors at that meeting.
