The Dangers of the Credit System. That crabbed cyflie, but brilliant, incisive and quaint Virgininan, John Randolph, once declared; that the true secret of the philoso pher's stone was to tay as you gN.

Moreover, if everyone would act on this principle there would be no more ‘‘commercial failures,” now alas, so common, and better still, the prompt will not be forced any longer to pay such a tariff oil their pur chases, as will suffice to make up the loss sustained from bad customers. This is the only reliable method also by which a family can regulate and control its expenditures. Depart from it even for a single month, and bills multiply to twice what was fondly supposed to be their dimen sions, unpleasant mistakes in settlements occur, the purse is found to be empty or very low in funds, and disappointment and /chagrin are the result. But on ther other hand, when “cash on the’nail” is paid for everything, great care and circumspection are used in the premises; and a dollar is made to go twice as far.

A MAN BURN IU) TO DEATH IN A STUMP HOLE. A most awful catastrophe occurred on Wednesday night of last-week in Dooly comi ty, near the line of Worth. The unfortunate victim was Elder Samuel Wright Story, a Primitive Baptist very highly esteemed. Mr. Story had been to mill on Swift, creek, and was returning home late in the evening. He stopped to wann himself in front of the house of Mr. Stevens, on the road side ; whereanold fctump of a tree had been fired, and had burn ed into a hole. None of Mr. Stevens' family went out to where he was or pakl tarty atten tion to his being there. They rmty noticed that his cart, remained standing an unusually long time for a person merely to warm. About ten o'clock at bight, they saw his cart was still at the road side, and finally Concluded* to go and see if Anything was the matter. On arriving at the stump hole a most horrible* sight was before them. The head and shonl ders of Mr. Story's body were hung in the hole and had burned to a crisp. It seemed as if he had fallen into the burning hole head foremost. Whether lie had struck his foot against some obstacle and fallen, or whether lie had been prostrated from a fit, is unknown. In either ease, lie was unable to raise himself put of the hole, and death, in its most terrible form, put au end to his struggles. The citizens of the neighborhood were inform ed of the accident, and assembled to hold an inquest aud bury the remains. Our inform ant, Mr. S. P. Wilson, passed the place on Thursday morning, and a crowd had already collected for the objects stated.—Uanckins ville Dispatch. Trichina. FATAL EFFECTS OF PORK EATING IN INDIANA. Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 17.— Dr. Petty john, having a medical practice near West field, on the borders of Hamilton county, some ten miles north of Indianapolis, day before yesterday brought Dr. Fletcher, for micro scopical examination, a piece of pork tender loin, and some portions of human muscle, which he believed to be infested with trichina. It was learned from him that a family named Beale ate freely of pork tenderloin, and soon after the entire family had become affected, some furiously, and one, a little girl, fatally, with symptoms which he afterwards attribut ed to the presence of trichina. After the death of the little girl, he secured a portion of the gasfcricnemins muscle, also a portion of the tenderloin, and the specimens were submitted to a close microscopical examina tion by both, Doctors Fletcher and Chambers. In a piece of muscle the size of a pin head, Dr. Fletcher found twenty of the little ver mins, of mature growth, and still showing signs of active life. As yet, only the little girl has died, but others of the family are dangerously ill. 1 A negro man was lately found packed in a bale of cotton, and dead, in Fairtttd county, S.

Tweed was obtained yesterday*-, notwithstanding the continued and combined efforts of both the police authorities and the officials. That the flight of the ex-“I>oss” was most de liberately' planned and carried out with ex ceeding skill the long time that has elapsed without his being recaptured fully testifies to. He Has now been at large over seven days and the large reward already offeree! of SIO,OOO, with a promise of an increase of this amount to s.‘>o,ooo. has had no effect as yet in discovering thg authorities the actual place of Ids concealment.. . This shows that the affection felt for the fallen chieftain by his. aud former beneficiaries is still stronger,flum.the power of money. For large as is. the^re.warA.offered-for information as to his wherealiofttts, ami utjjm.r^particulars which may lead to his arrest, no one has as yet been found bold enough to come forward and im part this knowledge. It is said in this con-. necUop ; that who wercnnuleparticipant ill the plan of flight are deterred from telling what they know of the transaction by fear of the odium which would attach to their names ami persons in case they should- iui nurt the secret to the police or to the Sheriff. Then again, it is said, were any one to ‘give away” the old man, |ie would only do so at the risk of his own life, for it is no unusual thing to hear expressions among the lower class of politicians and loafers around the city to the effect that if they ever hoard of any man who was the means of a recapture being made, they would -show their loyalty, to their former patron by taking tire life of his betrayer, and thus prove their gratitude and affection for the man on whom they fat tened when he was in [rower and prosperity. —New York Jlerahi.
