! THH FINANCIAL, CRASH.

When the news of the failure of Jay
Cooke s 20. first reached us. we thought,
did the press and the. people throushou. the
country that the story was nothing more than
o wild sensational fabrication. We would al
NEST as soon have expected the suspension of
the United States Treasury, SO strong in pub
lie confidence had grown the great central
New York house of the Cookies. as we'll as
its Philadelphia, Washington and London
branches. But the news was true. The ex
element in Wall street during Thursday,
Friday and Saturday of last week was unpre
cedented. "The whole stree. is gone" was
the cry of distress heard on all sides. Friday
has ever known. and the wreck ruin and des.
pair which doomed up in quarters thought
the soundest and the best, surpassed even the
similar scenes of the BLACK Friday" of 1869.
The First National Bank of Washington, as
we'll as the houses of the Cookies in Washine>
ton aud Philadelphia. also suspended The
London house of Cooke, Mccullough & TO:
did not suspend and claims tina. it is a dis
tinct and entirely solvent institution. The
effect on the great specializing brokers in New
York was disastrous in the extreme. One
after another of them went down in rapid suc-
cession until confusion worse COMPOUNDED
reisned everywhere. The papers have in
formed us that the failure of Jay Cooke &
Go with all its dire consequences. was owing
to the enormous amount of Pacific Railroad
bonds which they were carrying. This is
undoubtedly true. But there is another cause
for the crash, which none of the papers we
have seen have alluded to; aud that is the
power which the Grangers of the West have
come to WELD. The election in California in
which the great speculative railroad interests
arrayed themselves in solid line of battle
against the people and in which the people
gave the railroads of this class their Waterloo
defeat is, 10 our opinion. the urdoubted cause
of the terrible fall Of the mighty house of the
Cookies. Henceforth the Changers are
power in the land.

THE SCHOOL ELECTION ON SAT-
URDAY.

The voters of Charlestown District cannot
be too forcibly reminded of the election to be
held on
Saturday merit, the 9Th instant,
on the question of continuing the schools Of
said district for ten months. as provided by
law. That the question will be carried in
the affirmative almost unanimously can scarce
ly be doubted, yet it behooves every friend of
popular education in the District to 60 to the
scho"l-house of this sub-district on that day
and cast his ballot s'for ten months school -
The additional tax imposed will be SO light it
is scarcely worth while to go iuto details :
therefore we simply remind the voters of the
election, and feel satisfied of the result.
