NEW YORK, Nov. 12.--The suspension
Of the tea house of s. NJ. Beard & Co.
formerly Beard 81 Cunningham, was an
nounced yesterday afternoon. Liabili
ties are placed at about $30O,0 The
house got into difficulties about two
years ago, since which time it has been
crippled. The assets are not known. A
meeting Of the creditors will be held in
day or two.
Several hundred laborers employed on
the public works in this city have been
discharged by General FitzJohn Porter,
owing TO the appropriation being nearly
exhausted.
The violent storm of rain and wind,
which prevailed all day yesterday and
last night, included in its course large
section OF country, and proved espe-
clally disastrous along the coast. The
wind blew here at the rate of thirty-two
miles an hour. Telegraph wires are
down in several places, and oonsidera-
BILE damage done to shipping has al
ready been reported, but thus lar with
L
clear and cold, with brisk wind
blowing.
George e. Way, the tea merchant, who
failed, few days ago. with $4,000 liza
bilities, will pay 80 cents on the dollar.
A Herald London special says the crew
of the British ship Lennie mutinied and
murdered the officers on the thirty first
OF October, killing Captain Hatfield and
mate, and the b0atswain, when off New
Bri; ain. The Lennie was bound from
Antwerp for New York.
A Washington special says DR.. Baxter
is now confident that Vice President
Wilson win be as well as usual in few
days. He is now comparatively easy,
and much more cheerful. Postmaster
General Jewell, DR.. Baxter, MIR. Il. v.
Murphy and MIR. French remained with
him by turns last night.
pected that reports Of the Cabinet MIN
listers will be ready for the President
next Monday, and that he will begin
writing his message to Congress not
later than the 10th inst.
He Will leave the question of finances
to be discussed at length in Secretary
Brist0w's review and report, as the lat
ter is completing an exhaustive and
very able paper on the subject.
The President will most probably de-
vote large portion OF his message to a
presentation of our duties as Nation
In the matter of the war in Cuba.
Should Cushings efforts at settling
the troubles in Cuba by urging Spain to
cede it to the United States be sfutiie,
the policy OF recognition of the Cuban
Republic will be recommended to Con-
gress. It is quite probable that the Pres
ldent and Mr.. Fish will differ, however,
on the subject Of recognizing Cuba. Ali
this looks like piece Of strategy on the
part of Chandler and Edmunds to SECURE
the President one more element oil
strength towards securing the nominal
ton Tor third term.
THE HERALD ON THE POLITICAL sITUA
TIoN.
NEW YORK, Nov. 12.--The Herald, ed.
itorially speaking OF the political pros
pect, says il Grant forces his own nomi-
nation, which he has the power to do, he
could not be elected, whereas any other
candidate possessing the confidence OF
himself and the party might easily carry
off the prize. II Grant should be the
Republican nominee, there would be D
bolt, and an opposition Republican can
didate.
The lnflationists would also put for,
ward candidate, and scrub race
would be the result. With two Repub-
lican and two Democratic candidates
in the field, the Herald deprecates such
an event on various grounds, and says
the result would undoubtedly be the
election of a. Democratic President,
Gram can tie up all this storm by q
J frank renunciation Of all personal sspl.
