Large Notes not to be Refssued.
The recent theft of $47, 500 in $500 notes
from the cash room of the Treasury Depart
ment at Washington will, it is said result in
an order by the Secretary disseminating the
practice of reissuing any note above the de-
nomination of $40, and directing that the
number be taken of every note Of large de-
nomination issued from the Department Had
this practice prevailed heretofore, the money
in the stolen package would be of no use, as
the numbers would be known, and the public
could soon be notified of them. Gen. Spinner
has always favored the plan Of cancelling
every note Of any denomination over sou
whenever it should return to the Treasury In
the course of business, but his recommended
ton on that subject has not been agreed to ~
the several Secretaries, on the ground that
the constant manufacture Of new notes would
involve an extravagant expenditure.

The Financial situation.

The New York Financial Chronicle, Of the
10th inst, says: The absorbing topics of the
past week have been the financial difficulties
in London and the adjustment here of the
railroad strife between the Pennsylvania and
Baltimore and Ohio Companies. Failures of
q number of firms in London and several
in Manchester have been reported, some of
them with liabilities of large amount, and
nearly all houses in the East India trade, iron
trade. or else bill brokers. 1t has been a
matter of much surprise here that, on the
occurrence of failures aggregating SO large an
amount, there has been SO little disturbance
in the tone of financial affairs in London, as
there is not the slightest appearance Of
panic there.
The Bank of England is increasing its bull
lion lively, showing gain Of e912. 600 for the
week ending Thursday, while the discount
rate remains unchanged at 81 per cent and
money in the open market is lower. This
absence of excitement and the slight decline
in consols is very significant feature, and is
is only to be accounted for on the theory that
the failures have not caused in London any
serious apprehension of wide spread disaster.
and must b regarded g. likely to be confined
in their effects to comparatively marrow cir
Gle. Whatever the results may prove to be,
it is fortunate that there has been 80 little
sign of panic, as nothing else could do 30
much to check the spread Of actual trouble q

From the above statement it appears that
the decline has been 12a per cent from the
level of 1873. It would be rash to predict
that this progressive rate of decrease will con-
tinue, yet the obvious tendency Of the fnan-
cial disturbances in Brazil, Peru and other
South American countries, OF the exisung
state Of trade in the United States and Cana
an. and Of the failures which have just taken
place in England, is to intensity the universal
staRnation. Political economy sbounds IN
theories which have been brought forward to
explain such q condition Of sluggishness IN
ali branches Of industry as we have been ex-
periencing for the last eighteen months.
Trials Of this kind are unfortunately no new
thing in the world The seat Of the disorder
Is apparently the human mind. Confidence
is shaken, consumption is interrupted, pro
ducers find the markets glutted, and the
community seems powerless to relieve itself
from the incubus which Expresses it.

Amusemenrs.

The performance at the st. Charles Thea
tire last night commenced with the farce OF
the Spectre Bridegroom" in which Mr.. W..
j. Cogswell played Diggory This was fol-
10 wed by an old.time patriotic and military
drama. called the Battle of Buena Vista, :"
which .iDtroduced Yankee Robinson as
Pennyroyal Plummer. The stage Yankee
and stage Irishman of twenty years ago
were but caricatures. The Gumption Cutes,
razor strop men with bell-crowned hats,
striped pants, blue coats and brass buttons,
have given way for the more quiet and less
exaggerated Asa Trenchards, and the wild
Irishmen, who with single sticks defied and
beat regiments of British soldiers, have
been superseded by possible Shauns and
Myles-na Coppaleens, as dramatists have
succeeded in holding the mirror up nearer
to nature. Mr.. Robinson is a good actor of
in St. Louis many years ago, and he has
since led the eventful life of Snowman,
making and losing fortunes. acting fre-
quently, doing great moral dramas under
canvas, running panoramic, managing cir
cuses and putting big shows on the road.
He is at present interested in the Two
Orphans" and they are just now giving
him more trouble than troupe of acrobats
or whole menagerie of wild animals.
At the Academy of Music, "Humpty
Dumpty" is still up to tricks. The benefit
of Leona Dare will occur Friday night.
On Saturday evening the performance will
be for the benefit of the Mechanics and
Workingmen's Cooperative Association.
