SCrttB INCIDENTS OF THE TBOUBLOVS TIMES IN 5EW YORK — HOW MR. m'cULLOUGH HEARD THE NEWS—THE EE- CEPTION TO CHAET.ES “ - DEAD LAUGH. « 'orrespondencc of the Louisville Courier-Journal. New York, Sept. 20, 1873. The lute Wall street panic has absorbed tbe ttention of everybody dining tbe past ten days, aad very naturally so. Though the papers have published columns of re port*?, interview.*, 4 ‘ cards,” and state ments, yet they liavo far from ex hausted the subject, br.t as is always the case, they have passed over some of the most striking features of the past week unnoticed. It seems strange that so many pictare.wpio episodes of almost every ^reat event nro thus neglected bv our great 'laities, yet such is almost invariably tho case. The cause I fancy is that reporting, which JTeory J. Raymond rightly held to be the highest kind of newspaper work, is left to the youngest, poorest paid and least capable men on the press. Hence, instead of a brilliant or graphic picture of the scene on the street during tho panic, which each of the great Uilies might have given, we had only* bold statements o ( fact, often marked by great ignorance and lack of literary skill. What a picture might have been made of the interview between Grant and Vanderbilt at tho Fifth Avenue Hotel on Sunday; or of I within tha leg%l hoars of sale, fifteen aid three-fourth J Henry Clews’ bursting into tears in his bank- I ?£ re8 -5. f part of land lot No. lw. of the | MACON ADVERTISEMENTS- between tti pinger, late of Pike fore the Court lions the FIRST TUESDAY in Octol) . .. usual hour* of sale, to the highest bidder, if not die- | posed of privately before the di7 of sal**, th - following , lot* of land, to wit: Lota Ho. 131 and 135. iu tho 9th district ol formerly .Monroe now Pike ronnty, in par- ! cels of fifty or one hundred seres, to suit purchasers.

I can only indicate what 6eems to me the salient feature of the hoar, while feeling my own entire incompe t incy to perform ihe task of describing them n detail. One or two matters, however, of which i Lad personal knowledge, I may relate. HOW MS. M’CTLLOUGH HEARD THE NEWS. First, as is generally known, ex-Secretary ilngb McCullough, who is at tho head of the f»ndon house of Jay Cooke, McCullough & Co., was on his way from England with some of his family, and arrived hero on Monday morning last. It was thought that his return to the United States was caused by tho weak state of the American branch of the firm, but such was not the case. His visit was purely • »ne to gain rest and enjoyment. The voyage J — - created by the expectation of rneeti Three Cottages for Sale ill-favored Graphic balloon.

Mr. McCullough, who is careless of wealth, but regards his rep utation more highly than C’asaio, turned deadly pale, so that those about thought he would have fainted; but neither spoke a word but hastily left the steamer as soon as possi ble, so as to reach Wall street and consult with their partners. Another episode, w hich I will next relate, is a striking illustration of tho devotion and self-sacrifice which ia often show n by persons in a dependent position.

THE DEFAULTHC OAKEETON. This is oao of the redeeming features of these troublous times. Ou the other hand, the worst thing about it nil is, that almost the beginning of the whole crisis may be traced to that too common practice of defalcation by young Carleton, of the Union Trust Company, f happen to know something about his person al history, and it is exceedingly sad, because now so hackneyed. Two years ago he began '• o be very prosperous. He had a salary of $10,000, which ought to Lave satisfied him, but his am bition was great. He soon set up Lis own car riage—a modest one—then a larger and more showy one. Presently ho had his house in I o ]| ]] town and another in the country, and so it j went on, no one accusing aud yet many sns- ' for the rem pecticg that the money to pay for all this dis play was not rightly earned. Bnt the gods having made Liar mad now began las destruc tion, which followed with terrible swiftness. A month ago, Carleton’s lovely wife, just twenty-four years of age, took cold and died suddenly, leaving two voting children with no one to care for them. She had a magnifi cent funeral. It is said that the flowers alone cost $3,000, but the husband was heart-brok en, and the poor babes wailing all day and night made the neighbors heart-sick. Then came his disgrace and flight, ana now the only thought is—happy that mother whom death had snatched away so opportunely. ist excellent neighborhood, and just »e of the Street Car liDes.
