SHELBYYILLE, Tenn. April 9, rs.
Our community was shocked on
yesterday. at the taking ofan over.
dose of laudanum by Samuel G.
Crozier. which resulted in his death
this morning atg4 o'clock ~xw
Mr.Crozier, a native of East Ten.
nessee, served in the Confederate
army, aud after the war made his
home at Dalton. Georgia. where lie
made a successful merchant. Dur
ing last year, however. he became
dissatisfied and removed to Edge
field, Tennessee. There he did not
succeed as he anticipated, and after
q few months he removed to Shelby
willie. Here he built up good trade
but this spring had been dissatisfied,
and had packed up his goods to re-
turn to Dalton On yesterday morn
ling, while the worknena were packing
goods. he remained up stairs, lying
on cot. This conduct was not
surprising, as he had complained of
nervousness for some days. and did
not seem inclined to be in company.
After u, as the last of the goods
were being sent 10 the depot, he
came down, and his brother flor some
weeks past in his store) asked him
if he had not drank whisky, observ-
ing strangeness. in his appearance
and conduct. He replied in the
negative, but exhibited two-onee
laudanum bottle. saying he drank it
to stop his existence; that he be
lieved he was going aderanged-as
he was before the war-and that it
would be better for his family if he
were dead. Every effort was prompt
ly made. but they proved futile

1t is remarkable with what silence
the news from Connecticut has been
received by the truly loir' organs.
The fact is. they have got a mortal
sickness on 'em. It was a medicine
they little anticipated, as respects
either its quality or its quantity, and
they are unhappy. And well they
may be. The significance of the note
which has gone up from the Nutmeg
State is not to be mistaken or dis
guised. In plain English, twas The
death knell of Third Termism. The
people of that State have recorded
their stern protest against the revolu-

vital importance which they attach

they operated with a more unscru-
pulous vigor and activity; and the
grareyards of the late war were
everywhere invaded for material with
which to work out the vile ends Of
partisan ambition. But happily in

The people have heard the familiar
cry Of "wolf" until it has lost its
olden spell, and it dies out UNDECIDED

be gulled with the thin, stale and un-
profitable fiction. They are not un-
willing to believe that their brethren
of the South are ripe for another re-

with pent-up wrath During thelast
ten years the suspicious regularity
with which this discovery has been
made by politicians upon the eve Of
elections. has proven too much for

The Louisville Ledger, of the Both

various localities in regard to the
prospects of the growing wheat.
Though there aIe complaints of dam
age in some localities, the reports
are on the whole favorable for a good
crop, a result which is, of course,
pleasant to every body, as every one
is, interested in having cheap
bread. And as these letters to the

they have no inducement to misrep-

The Baltimore 4 Ohio Railroad has
pursued policy in the matter Of granting
railroad passes that many people have
thought too close for the best interests Of
the company. Indeed, it has not been an
unusual circumstance to hear the compa.
ny's policy in this regard spoken of as
penny wise and pound foolish" But,
after all, it may we'll be doubted. whether
il i not. an error on virtues side for
railroad company to take the position
that 1t has no right to curtaiI the reven.
ues Of its stockholders by the promi'cu.
Gus issue Of free passes. All railroad
companies, almost without exception,
are inclined to issue too many rath.
er than too few free passes. Com
modore Vanderbilt has set an exam
pie that railroad Presidents the country
aver may well initiate. lie early took the
ground that no person who did not rem
der valuable quid pro quo to his road
had any right to ride on It without pay
ing. Hence on his accession to office he
made fearful havoc among the dead heads.
The policy Of Mr.. Garrett Of the Balti.
more & Ohio is the same AZ the CCmmo.
dore's. lie believes that every dollar his
road can earn belongs to its stockholders,
and he has demonstrated that they are
pretty sure to get Il IN some shape or
other.
We led to these remarks by noticing
the revelations lately made in the man.
agement Of the Boston 4 Eastern railroad,
US they came out in court. II seems that
free passes over ii, rails had been issued
10 such an extent as TO account for quite
peroeptible per cent Of the diminished
earnings Of the road. II was shown that
there had been issued this year 2,lOO an.
nual passes, and from $50 to 400 per day
passes good for one trip. In the case Of
another road, the Central Vermont, II was
shown before the Masters in Chancery at
81. Adams, that every newspaper, every
lawyer, and every prominent man along
the line Of the railroad and in the
Legislature had a pass, and even
the Judges before whom the ease was then
being tried had them in their pockets.
The attorney for the bond.holdets made
a very delicate and judicions use Of this
evidence, presenting II not to prove or
even impute corruption, but to question
the right Of the trustees to give away the
services Of the road. The ground taken
in Conheclicutby leading lawyer il that
road has no right to carry one man
free and charge his neighbor full fare.
Without doubt il Is within the province
Of the courts to do away with a vicious
practice. But the giving Of free passes
il to be maintained a. within the powers
oil directors and railroad trustees, ii IL
evidently one Of those privileges, the ex.
etcise Of which should be a matter Of
record in the annual and official reports.
The people want to know what proper.
lion Of each roads passengers travel free
and why they have that favor.

Our dispatches this morning announce
the suspension Of the Bank OF America at
New Orleans. The directors have re-
solved to put the bank in liquidation.
The cause Of this necessity is not stated,
but no doubt 1t is the old, old story with
which the public are made daily tamil.
lar, viz: reckless management fayOrit'
ism to unsafe borrowers, and perhaps the
payment Of large interest to depositors.
This is the story that we are hearing now
in regard to certain Savings Banks in
New York, a number Of which have
been examined lately and found want
ing. -Four OF these banks are now in
the hands OF Receivers, the Security, the
Mutual Benefit, the Central Park, and
the Manufacturers and Builders, The
New York Herald gives currency to the
rumor that Supt. Ellis; OF the Bank De-
partment, is about to close up eight or
ten more. There is no general alarm in
the city, and the credit Of none OF the
larger banks has yet been attacked. The
columns of the New York papers are full
Of the most unpleasant disclosures. The
officers Of the Central Park Bank, in
order to make a good showing, were in
the habit of putting in their own checks
to the aggregate OF 100000 before max
ing their quarterly reports. After the
reports were made the deposits were
withdrawn. The trustees Of the bank
began the erection OF an elegant brown.
stone building, although they had but
$4,000 deposits, One Of the Trustees
took the contract to build the bank, and
another to paint it, The deposits are all
gone, The building stands incomplete, and
is mortgaged to the Trustees for $4,000.
Could Credit MObilier further go? In
the Mutual Benefit Savings Bank there
is deficiency Of at least $4,000 in the
