PANIC INCIDENTS IN BERLIN.

The Socialist scare still continues in
Germany. A young man travelling for q
Silecian paper house happened to be talk
ing to q customer in Berlin, when the Gus
TONER'S wife said, "My, how much you
resemble Nobilingl You might be taken
for him." "Is that 80 7" said the young
man jestingly; "then 1 must resemble a
very handsome man." Next day he was
arrested and locked up. NJ. L Rigoudaud,
Berlin correspondent of the Paris Soleit,
was arrested for "lOoking wickedly at the
Column of Victory" He was Immediately
released, of course, but the incident is sig
Herr Loewenstein, a furniture dealer who
committed suicide in prison, having been
unable to brook the disgrace of being led
manacled through the streets. He denied
emphatically having used the seditious
expressions attributed to him, and it came
out afterwards that he was innocent and
had been denounced by personal enemy.
Altogether, things in the German capital
remind us of the witty Partisan pageant
described, we think, by Lord ALTERNATELY
where, in the scene representing the Reign
of Terror, the dancers, crying STU mes
suspect marched each othar off till only
ooe was left, who se'zsd himself by the
throat and shouted "Je me Suis suspect :"
denounced himself and danced himself off
to prison. Indeed, the only sensible man
in the German Empire seems to be a Ba-
vsrian tavern keeper who, when an inebri.
ate guest began bsbbling bloodthirstily and
beerily that 'it served the Kaiser right"
took him by the collar and launched him
INTO the street with three tremendous
kicks, administered ssin the name of the
Emperor, of the King of Bavaria and of the
German people,"

STATE OF TRADE IN NEW YORK czTY
FIVE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN FAILURES
IN SIX MONTHS.
New York Sun.

There is no denying that trade is dull
throughout the country, and merchants are
in anything but good spirits. Large num-
bers of manufactures are closed, or are
working on half time, or with greatly
reduced force, and many of the finest of
them, built ten or fifteen years ago, may
now be bought for quarter of their coet.
Mr.. Edward Atkinson is of the opinion
that we have seen the worst of our business
troubles, and are about to enter on a peri
cd of prosperity. He bases his encourag-
ing prophecy on the facts that the balance
Of trade is in our favor, our manufac
lures have been SO reduced in quantity that
the stock of goods on hand is comparative
ly small, and the condition of our finances
has steadily improved. It may be added
that the crops, both North and South,
promise exceedingly we'll, and the pros
poets of Democratic euccess in the elections
for Congressman next autumn give us Ies-
son to anticipate continuance of only
modified extravaganza at Washington.
But the first six months of the year show
a remarkably large number of business
failures. In this city alone there were,
during that time, five hundred and four
teen such failures, in which the aggregate
liabilities amounted to $39, ,O30 ,795, with
the assets $ll, ,0l2, ,662. For the whole of
lSI7 the total number of failures was only
eight hundred aud forty seven, with liabil-
titles of $5l .6S7 600. The large increase
Ia the present year is, of course, chiefly
due to the desire of embarrassed merchants
to get the advantage of the Bankrupt law
In advance of its repeal. But among the

great historic houses-a learned antigua
rian-the considerate owner and judicious
guardian of such national monuments as
Trim Castle and the church of Dunsauy-
his lordship would be the best of all pos
sible presidents for the contemplated asso-
citation.
It is intended, as soon as sufficient
amount of support has been secured, to
call meeting at Trim for the purpose of
inaugurating the society, and of defining
it's objects and rules. It is expected that
the association will arrange to have
lectures delivered occasionally by eminent
aptiquariaDs on subjects possessing local
interest. Possibly, too, monthly OF
quarterly journal may be established for
the interchange of views, the record of
discoveries, and the preservation of facts
or traditions.
It may be well to answer beforehand an
objection that may perhaps be raised as to
the necessity of this movement. 1t may
be alleged that as the Board of Works is
about TO take charge of the national mon
uments of Ireland local efforts for their
preservation are no longer required. But
the fact is the Board of Works ia not
the care of more than a small
proportion of the total number of our an
cient edifices.

10 the editor Of the AlernndrM Gazette:
The Gazette of the 5th instant contained an
account OF the painful accident which bofell

of Alexandria, was sent for and nc not being
able to come mp, message was sent to Wash

been rendered and the injured parties doing as

was very natural one from the seeming cir.
cumstances at the time, and the manner 10
which you obtained il. But | wish particularly
to correct the implied slur upon myself in this
