noticed, after a mantinee, his look Of
exhaustion and told him to stay at home
that night His father made him obey
that injunction solely against his will.
He missed the crowd. the lights, the
roaring applause, the fatal delights which
was killing him. Father and son went
to bed, and the former was soon awaken

heard him say. "Merciful God. make

GAINESVILLE, TENN, Oct. 20.-The
candidates for Congress in this district,
Col. Jno. T. House, Democrat, and Hon
II. IL. Harrison, Radical, opened the ball
last night at Franklin Hall, Col. House
opening in an hours speech and an hours
rep'y by Nh. Harrison, and a fifteen min
Utes reioinder from each. Both candidates
were listened to with marked degree of
attention seldom seen in political debate.
This being the first time the candidates
have met, the speeches, of course, were
but preliminary, but, in Col. Houses re-
joinder, the fun grew fast and furious, and
the applause was so great, as be knocked
the starch out of HarrisOn's shoddy posi-
tion, that he had to request the crowd to
desist. IN order that lle might be allowed
his full time. HarrisOn's reply was weak
and insipid, and principally aimed at the
colored people, to whom he appealed as a
fOrlOrn hope.
The Democrats are proud of their CHAM
pion, who will carry their banner gloriously
through the contest, and entail upon the
Radical candidate a most ignOminous de-
feat. 4.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The Post says
the RothSchild-Seligman syndicates have
made their settlements with the Treasury
for November and December, which means
that they have sent into the Treasury the
$40 bonds which have been called, and on
which interest ceases Nov. 1, and Dec. l,
so that the calculations that the Treasury
will have TO pay out any considerable
amount of gold for those bonds, will be al
fanlt. The amount of called bonds, ma
turing Nov. /, is S25,0OO,O0O, and on Dec.
l, $50, 100000.
One of the chief reasons for the rise in
exchange is that
securities are Coming Here
from Europe in considerable amounts. Ii
is understood that large amount OF Erie
stores are on the way from LsndOn as well
rs United States bonds from the German
markets, the latter having been ordered
