One evening during the carly days Of
our Tate Unpleasantness' there was to be
an exhibition Of Grammar School No A
In New York City. I arrived late at the
school building, and found several dis
tingnished looking visitors on the plat
form of the hall. Among them was one
whom I at once recognized by the por-
traits / had seen of hint was Major
General Scott, the hero Of the Mexican
war He was In full regimentals, and
sat Ia an arm chair little 10 the right of
the center Of the stage-a very grand,
large man, with snowy hair and Shis-
kers. He gave the most fattering, the
most rant attention to the reading Of
every composition, to all the singing,
declaratiOn-every exhibition Of &,ill,
however perfectly or imperfectly done.
The presence Of so distinguished avisi-
tor stimulated some to do their BEST,
while it scared others into doing their
very worst. It was on the whole, how
ever, a brilliant success.
After the exercises the president Of our
local board Of school officers approached
the Generals chair and said sorleino
to him. We knew ne was asked teAnake
a ''few remarks" and wondered ST he
would consent. To our great delight.
there were evident signs OF compliance;
the old hero commenced to rise. One of
the school officers approaching his chair
on the opposite side offered to assist him.

Panic PrenIcfed.

Mr.. Jno. W. Bookwalter, late Democratic
candidate for Governor of Ohio, and one
Of the largest and most successful manu-
factnrers in that State, predicts that there
will be panic in this country inside OF
eighteen months. He says: 'There is not
u business in this country to-day that is
not out of joint The price of prod action
of labor and materials is increasing and
will increase, while the price Of products
stand still. No man can look ahead six
months and say with safety the price of
any manufactures. Mr.. Bookwalter say
this is an unnatural and an unhealthy
state of affairs, and declares that 1--WE are
surely travelling the circle that leads TO
periodical panics.
The Louisville Comiey-.IourRal takes a
more hopeful and We trust, rational view
of the business prospect. IL says: 'It
may be that there will be a reaction to-
ward lower prices as far as stocks are
concerned, and some of the purely specu
lafive ones may entirely disappear. There
will probably also he more difficulty in
