The financial crisis in France just
now, and which threatens general
panic and crash, is full of warnings
for US i'm this country. 1t is still
doubtful whether or not univer-
sal suspension can be averted, and
whether or not the industries of
France will he forced to undergo
long period OF paralysis and depres-
sion. 1t is the old, old story of in
flated and ever initiating credit and
confidence until the bubble burst.
Frugal ard economical France had
large savings. The people had them
hidden away in security. The pros.
porous condition of the country dur
ing the past three years induced the
creation Of numbers Of banks and
other corporations. Speculation car
ried up the value Of these shares, and
buoyancy of business led to doublings
of capital stock, and still, the prices
went upward. And this, too, in spite
Of the fact that the wheat crops and
the wine crops of two years had failed
and France was importing food. The
amount of capital invested in cor
porati0ns during the year 1881 was
$557 100000. The market has been
uneasy since the LIST of January. On
last Wednesday a large offer of Suez
Canal shares struck the market like
a blow, and prices began to tumble.
Suez went down from $40 to 222, and
tended downward still; Union Cen
erale, the most audacious of the bal
looms, went down from 5000 to no;
the Bank of Lyons and Loire went
to smash, and legitimate business as
we'll rs speculation became involved.
Great efforts are making to hold up
Union Generate, for if this fails 1t
will drag down many other money
institutions in the general wreck. In
this country there are many indica-
tions of Over.speculatiye confidence,
though here we have had the adj
vantage of immense production and
enormous trade balances in our favor
to base it on. The immense amount
of capital that has been locked up in
new railroads has caused anxiety to
far.sighled men, for this was one of
the precursors to the panic of 1873.
The enormous production of the pre-
cious metals by our mines, the vast
wealth of our cotton, corn, pork, pc
trOleum and tobacco have sustained
speculation Oh this side of the ocean
but even our pr0digiOus resources
may be overtaxed. and these are
warnings and signs that level-headed
men should watch carefully.-BdIto.

that memorable night we were only
intent upon little sport and OF pay
ing our respects to our popular Bur-
CESS and his lady, land having an
eye single to the enjoyment of a few
pints of peanuts at the expense OF
the Burgess.l We were exceedingly
glad when we were requested to call
after supper; but image our chagrin
and disappointment wnen we return
ed to find posse of deputy con-
stables clothed with the majesty of
the law awaiting our arrival. But
we soon took in the situation and
passed around to see what it all
meant, when the final onslaught came
that spead CONSERVATION in the rank
and file of our little band, and most
of them sought shelter by mothers
side" One or TWO thought to stand
their ground, but they were soon
seized Ivy half dozen deputies and
choked until their efforts to breath
could have been heard fifty yards
distant. And thus the fond anticl-
patione OF an hour were totally crush-
ed and we were exceedingly sorry.
In conclusion / would say to the
reverend editor that. while he is so
anxious to have all the boys arrested,
he should include some of his num-
her, and especially the one who,
through the excitement retreated up
stairs to a certain window and there,
assuming the position of the assassin
Guiteau, drew forth a deadly weapon
and fired at random into the street,
hoping, no doubt, to put us to flight.
but nevertheless violating another of
the town ordinances. "Take the beam
out of thine own eye" and perhaps
you can see more clearly.
TO the Burgess would say we wish
him and his fair bride long and
happy life. and shall long brood over
their hospitality, hoping they will
remember that Though we are boys
to. day, we will tie men some day.

Especial to the Cumberland Daily News.I
WASHINGTON. Jan. 25, 1882.
The great Guiteau trial which has
Deen the crentre of public attention
since Monday, November 14th closed
abruptly to-day upon the conclusion
OF the argument. Judge Cox de-
llVered his charge to the jury and re-
tired them for deliberation about
1888 p. M. After an absence of about
40 minutes they returned and upon
the usual question eing put by the
clerk as to the result of their de-
liberation, they returned verdict
OF guilty as indicted"
The verdict was received with APP
plause. which was however immedi-
ately checked. Mr.. Seoyille demand
ed that the jury be polled and upon
each mans name being called he an
swered guilty"
An attempt will be made on the
part of the defence to obtain stay of
proceedings on the ground of juris-
dlctlon. but it is not probable that
sucha motion will be entertained.

PainlessneSs of Death.

Death is painless, the physicians
say, and facts seem to prove the
statement: "If l had strength to
hold pen, would write how easy
and delightful it is to die." were the
last words of the celebrated surgeon.
VIM. Hunter; and Louis XIV, is re-
corded as saying, with his last breath,
II thought dying had been more
difficult"
On the day that Lord Col)ingwood
breathed his last the Mediterranean
vas tumultuous those elements
which had been the scene of his past
glories rose and fell in swelling I'M
dulations, and seemed as if rocking
him to sleep. Captain Thomas ven-
tured toask ifhe was disturbed by the
tossing of the ship. mo, Thomas"
he answered, II am now in state
that nothing can disturb me more
/ ain dying, and 1 am sure it must
be consolatory to you and all that
love me to see how comfortably I am
coming to my end"
In the Quarterly Reyie,o there is re-
lated an instance of a criminal who
escaped death from hanging by the
breaking of the rope. Henry w. of
France sent his physicians to exam.
inc him. who reported that after a
moments suffering the man saw an
appearance like fire, across which APP
peared most beautiful avenue of
trees. When pardon was mention
ed the prisoner coolly replied that it
was not worth asking for.
Those who have been near death
from drowning, and afterward restor-
to consciousness, assert that the dying
suffer but little pain.
Captain Marryatt states that his
sensations at one time when nearly
drowned were rather pleasant than
otherwise. "The first struggle for
life once over, the water closing
around me assumed the appearance
of waving green fields. 1t is not a
feeling of pain, but seems like sink
down, overpowered by sleep, in the
long. soft grass OF the cool meadow"

Talmage Doesn't Believe the Ark
Story.

Talmage, in recent sermon, says
OF Ingersoll: "He sharpens all his
witticisms to destroy our belief In the
deluge and Noah's ark. He says it
must have rained eight hundred feet
of water a day; that the ark could
not have been big enough to contain
the animals; that the mountain on
which the ark rested must have been
seventeen thousand feet high, and he
does not believe the story. Neither
do l. There Is no such story in the
Bible. We must read the story as it
was written by Noah, who described
a scene as he saw 1t. Noah meant
that the whole earth was covered as
far as he knew them. 1t was not
necessary to submerge Europe and
North America. which were not then
inhabited. He omits all reference to
that part of the story which says that
tive foundations of the great deep
were broken up before the windows
of Heaven were opened. AS to the
size of the ark, it was the Great
Eastern of that day. After thous.
ands of years of experiment in ship
carpentering we have got at last up
to Noah's ark. Ingersoll can't I'M
derStand how the animals were all
got into the ark. But L have owned
horses, cattle. sheep, and dogs, and l
never had horse or COW or dog
that was so stupid as not to know
enough to go in when it rains"

Moody and sankey have beef

Moody and Sankey have been
crowding the Fee Assembly Hall
in Edinburgh. Mr.. Moody has en-,
listed the sympathy of the Scotch
children to a remarkable extent. He
invited them to bring on a certain
day such contributions as they could
spare from their homes of toys which
had been given them and which they
were willing To give to poor children
who were without these Iuxuries.
The result was the bringing of enough
toys to fill two large wagons.
