Clearing. House Certificates.

THE New York banks have adopted the
plan of settling balances with clearing.
house certificates instead of greenbacks
during the present furry. To the general
public it may be well to explain what this
action signifies. In time like the pres
ent, everything which tends to economize
the use of currency Is pro tdRt0 a relief TO
the money market. New York being the
monetary centre of the country, the place
where all other banks keep greater or less
balances, she must respond with currency
when the banks of other cities
call for their funds. But for all
her own purposes she may use
anything which her own banks may
agreesto consider good. All the banks
meet once each day at the Clearing.H House
to exchange checks. The Park Bank, for
instance, turns into the Clearing House
checks drawn on other banks for
$500, 600. The other banks perhaps turn
in checks on the Park Bank for
$550,000. The Park Bank, therefore,
owes the Clearing House $4,000.
Usually this sum would be paid to
the Clearinghouse in greenbacks In
order, however, to ecOnomize the use of
greenbacks, the Park Bank, its condition
being shown to be perfectly solvent, pass
es in its own check for $50,000 Other
banks against which there is balance do
the same. The Clearing House then issues
its certificates for an equal amount TO the
banks which have balance coming to
them from the days clearings. The sys.
TEN is perfectly business-like and in &C
cord with sound principles of finance,
though it necessitates frequent examina-
tiOn of the assets of the several debtor
banks by the Clearing House Committee

THE NEW WORLD.

A dispatch from Philadelphia of the 18th
says that ten other failures had occurred in
that city besides those of Jay Cooke II Co.,
and E. w. Clarke Il Co., reported on the day
preceding, as follows: De Haven & Brothers
GiIbough, Bond Il Co.; Geo. II. North; j. p,
& H. E. Yerlls; Charles p Bayard; John P.
Lloyd; Henry II. Douglas; IL. Heber Ball;
T. c. Knight, and H. L. Fell IL Bro. Runs
had been made upon all Of the banks, but up
to the time of closing business they
had paid every dollar demanded,
The most decided attack had been made upon
the Fidelity Trust and Safe Deposit Company,
there being prevalent impression that it had
been connected in some way with the houses
of Cooke and Clarke. The aggregate of funds
drawn out was something over 81, 100000. The
President had arrived, and it was believed
that he had come to offer the sympathy and
probably the assistance of the Government to
Jay Cooke II Co.
A New York despatch of the 10Th says the
excitement in that city had largely exceeded
that of any preceding day. Nineteen addition
al failures had been announced, among others,
those Of Fisk q Hatch; White, Defreitas u
Rathbone; Beers & Edwards; E. j. jackson;
Thomas Reed & Co.; w, II. Warren Green
leaf Norris & Co.; George Alley; Theodore
Bedell; A. NJ. Kidder; Hay s. Warner; Day
81 Morse; Fitch Il Co. E. D. Randolph Il Co,
representatives of Tom Scott, of the Pennsyl-
vania Central Railway, and w. c. Conner. The
sacrifice Of stock values had been largely in
excess of the depreciation of the preceding
day. By noon Harlem had fallen 80 per cent.
New York Central 5; Rock Island, 91S st.
Paul, o; Ohio IL Mississippi, IL; Western
Union, 10 per cent. from the opening
prices. Money brought extravagant prices,
the ruling rate being one and half per cent.
per day, even this rate being reluctantly
accetped Strong and persistent attacks
had been made against all the monied institu-
tions, notably the Fourth National Bank and
the Trust Company, of which Richard Schell
was President. Up to the close of business,
every demand presented had been paid. The
effect upon gold had been TO raise the price to
l131S early in the day, but by afternoon the
price had receded to 11l11.
Dispatches from New York ON the Goth say
that the results of that days operation "had
been disastrous only to a class of stock gamb-
lers whom everybody wished to see over
whelmed, and the suspension Of three banks,
weakened by outside considerations, uneX-
pectedly revealed by distrust consequent
on the agitation of the stock market The
Z" Bank of the Commonwealth, "The Ma
tonal Trust Company" and the "Union
Trust Company" had suspended. In the
case of the National" the disaster had re-
suited from an inability to realize instantly
on Government securities. The suspension of
the "Unlon" had resulted not from in-
ability to realize ON securities, but from the
discovery of the defaieation by Carleton, the
Secretary, for 100000, and an over-draft of
e. s. Haight for 100000. 1t was re-
ported that Vanderbilt had been involved finan-
cially in the defaleation. The Stock Exchange

longs TO those, OF Whatever politics, whose votes
enacted such q provision We do not charge this
wrong upon either party, although It was support
ed by larger relative proportion Of the opponents
than Of the friends Of the Administration, and al
though among those who promoted 1t aud those
who were conveniently absent when the votes were
recorded were several members Of small faction

travagance We commend, also, Senators and
Representatives who have refrained from appro-

efcctual mode Of restoring to the United States the
money which such members have declined to re-
ceive Is by law to cover the same into the Treasu-
ry. We therefore request the Republican Senators
from this State TO Introduce and urge at the next
session bill which shall refund 10 the Treasury all
such moneys not claimed, including all SUMS which
have been merely left untouched, and all sums
which have been, In one form OF another, publicly

Administrations both Of the Nation and state;
that the former exhibits honest purpose, the sue
cessful policy and auspicious results Of which,
together with his own practical wisdom and
patriotic services led to the triumphant reelection
of President Grant; that the latter, by bis watch
full care of every public interest has justified the
expectations Of the people, aud that with the
ticket nominated to-day we confidently pledge the
maintenance OF faithful and efficient government.

MANY of the mill girls at Chicopee,
Mass, are becoming inveterate snuitdip,,
pers, and on any pleasant incoming
groups of girls can be seen on the canal
bridges, each supplied with a box OF
snuff and bunch of cotton waste, rub
bing their gums with infinite satisfaction.
The mill girls at Lowell have long been
addicted TO this habit, but its advent In
Chicopee is quite recent.

l.
Know the splendid jessamlnes can nh
The air with perfume, and the breeze that brings
Ihe magic odor has a power TO thrill
The senses Of the little bird that sings
IN yonder thcket, and to give tone
Of sorrow 10 his sweet, melOdious moan.
l know the soft reflection Of the stars
Is tremulous along the mighty stream;
know thst naught above deters or mars
The beanty Of the mourning moons faint CLEAN;
And yet my spirit strangely seems TO wear
ven through which nor earth nor heaven is fair.
know blessing cometh with q curse;
know waking cometh with dreami
| know better follOweth n worse;
know an ocean lies beyond the stream;
I know the perfume hath power TO bless;
think the bird once sang of happiness;-
Yet all h dust and ashcsnow: the light
Is bloody, and the air Is filed with FIRE;
And nothing but the swift Overwhelming night
Can keep me from a vision grim aud dire;
For night l. pitiful, and hides the face
Which cannot tighten with repentant grace
III
know a soul who lost a treasure fair;
Poor SOUL u nurscd wild, consuming paint
Yet sOulfully 1t struggled, though in vain.
