HI aeon Police Report. As officer Simpson, of tho Third Police Division, GENERAL AUSTELL. A Herald Reporter Interviews the Presi dent of the Atlanta National. TH: WALL STREET CRASH AS VIEWED BY A CEORGIA BANKER. Hearing that General A. Austell, President of the Atlanta National Bank, had returned from New York, a Herald reporter, in obedience to orders, called on him last night to interview him regarding the late failures in New York. After exchanging courtesies, the reporter opened in the following manner : Reporter—The information we deeiro is tho cause if you can give it, of the failures of the New York bankers? Geueial Austell—The failures were principally con fined to the railroad contractors. The primary cause, as given by New York hankers, was that these gentle men weie pressed for money by their contracts, and failing to find a market for their bonds were lorced to suspend. Reporter—Why was it they could not sell their boudfc? Why was this stringency in the money market? General Austell—The Bears had the Bulls whipped. They had full control of the currency and kept it. Mci . Jay Cooke & Co. had contracted to build the glance from her 6oul-piercing eyo excited the vital Central Pacific Railroad, and had received in payment principal of love, and sent ths red blood flowing through the tender veins of Mr. Ed D., a graceful and fascinating courtier, into whose bosom Cupid with his malicious roguiskness has cast a strong arrow, can think of no other joy than that which flashes upon him from the bright artillery of the widow’s eyes, to whom he discoursed in golden elo quence as ho entered a cozy retreat embowered with the rich foliage of the luxuriant evergreen. Love is most beautiful—the most lovely of all earthly &ff*c- oupling cars at the depot last night, his I tion. We read in the fairy tales of one who changed cauglt between the bumpers, and badly wit h her wand the briars into roses and the serpents into doves. Thou controllest the wand that can effect these miracles! Giving a sympathetic sigh, she responded: • Never wedding, ever wooing. Read you not the wrong you’re doing In my cheek's pale hue?

Calmly but beautifully he lay.” forty million dollars in bonds. Fisk k Hatch had agreed to build the Chesapeake acd Ohio Railroad for a large amouut, also payable in bonds, the Bears controlling tho money. Cooke Co. could net find a market for his bonds. Cooke ex pected Congress to endorse the bonds, so that they might ho enabled to run a second Credit Mobil- let—failing in this, and net finding a ready sale for their bonds, they were forced to suspend. The same, I apprehend is the cause of Fisk A Hatch’s failure. Reporter—How do you exp’ain the suspension of so mauy other firm-, General A—These were mostly minor firms. Their { failures resulted from the purchase of bonds, which , declined in value with such rapidity, that they were , unable to make good their margins. They thus had j their securities forced to sale at a ruinous stage ■ of the game, and were forced to give up. A LIVELY TUMBLE. | Reporter—There was a very rapid decline in bonds J and securities after the suspension of Jay Co3ke k Co.. ! was there not ? I Gen. Austell—Yes, sir; in three or four day9 after- i wards the decline in boads aud securities was csti- ■ mated at forty millions of dollars; even the most s‘a- | pie securities were lowered materially in value. Reporter—I suppose the whole of New York felt the shock ? Geu. Austell—No, the mercantile and znauufacturiDg hearts, enlightening them on the power of woman, j remains undisturbed.

Gen. Austell—Mr. George Opdyke, one of the Board of Directors of the Fourth Na tional Bank, is a large dealer in railroad bonds and securities, and as Boon ss rumors of his failure were afloat, a run was made on the Fourth National. The Bank paid all its checks promptly, and kept the doors open an hour later tban usual for the purpose of sat iating depositors of their solvency.

The crop is estimated by Northern cotton buyers at four million bales, «h;ch, at the present price, will bring $300,090,000 into the country.

It is a steam engine which has neither cylinder nor piston, nor guide bars, crank, nor valves, but only a boiler, which is at the same time the moving part. The machine works always with one and the Rarne quantity of water. The steam passes through a cycle something like that which in seen in nature—the sun evaporates tho water on tbe earth’s surface, in the upper strata this again becomes liauid, and returning to tho earth, does a large amount of mechanical labor. The machine is 0.1 horse power, needs but little attention, and is quite safe, tbe tension of the steam be ing quite low. If heated by gas, it con sumes 2.5 cubic meters per hour.
