BUSINESS FAILURES.

Iu proper order, alter the above disserta-
ton on church taxation, is the announce
mcnt of the failure of one of our leading
business men during the week. Although
economical in habits and attentive to bust.
ness. he was compelled to succumb 10 the
universal cry of hard times and make
an assignment. The assets will not pay
twenty-five per cent Of the liabilities.
Rumor has it that more failures will fol-
low. Our business men, generally, are
complaining of scarcity Of money. and the
difficulty they experience in making col
lections.
The announcements Of failures of leading
business houses all over the country are
becoming alarmingly frequent. 1t looks
as though we were going to have another
financial panic, The party in power have
expanded and contracted the currency,
raised and lowered the rate Of interest,
encouraged or Frustrated all legitimate
enterprise and productive industry, sus-
pended and resumed specie payments at
pleasure, making the public interest sub
servient to their cupidity, until dread
uncertainty hangs over every kind of bust
ness. threatnIng general collapse. Out of
this fearful uncertainty, can see bat one
escape, and that by the overthrow of the
Republican party. A Democratic majority
in one branch of congress has already had
avery reyivifying effect, but they can not
cure all the evils of the past instantly
The blighting effects of Radical misrule
have so permeated the body polotic, that
many of the limbs will hare to be clipped
off in order to save the firth.
