TJ*e continuity of the isothermal Hue is broken. The public have discovered that the line o: equal heat, which passes through the laLd of the orange andthjppalui, does not run through Duluth and thence westward on the liue of the Northern Pa cific railroad, and yesterday a card suddenly ap peared on the door of the tanking bouses ot Jay Cooke A Cos, announcing the suspension of the firm The three American houses of this concern, at Philadelphia, Washington and New York, are in equal financial trouble, but it is denied that the London house of Cooke, McCullough ct Cos. will be afltclcd by the disaster, that concern, managed by ex Setretaiy Hugh McCulloch, having tele era] L and !hat it wilt honor all just demands upon it. The failure or suspension ol a bouse of capi tat and cl aracter, like that of Ji-y Cooke A Cos , Inevitably produces a panic. The Wall ttreel t.a rometer, ever sensitive, showed a sudden and maikt.l depression. Btock. tumbled reckless y and uiournlully. Western Union dropped more than ten pt r cent. New York Central fell tour per cent. Wabash lowered nine per cent. North- I Western came down six and a half; Rock Island, three and a half, and Pacific Mail nearly thirteen per cent. This decline in stocks, from its sud denness, more than because of its magnitude, will carry down many brokers who handle them. Richard Schell, the large banker and broker and heavy dealer in New York Central, is already un der the weather, aud to-dsy will record many ad ditionul failures on Wall street. Moeetaiy at] irs co intertwine by the system of correspondence, checKS, dratts and depoeits, that the evils that iol low the failure of u bouse like Jay Cooke 6i Cos., whose reputation is national and wnse capital was supposed to be limitless, are to wide spread ing us Vo touch almost every considerable city iu the country, ij nearly all oi which Jay Cooke & Cos. hud liuaucial cori espondenls. The magni tude ol the disaster which has overtaken this house cunnot accurately be estimated, but it was doubtless overestimated in the late panic. It i3 not so much what has happened as what the fail ure lorcbodes that is cbitlly disastrous. The de positors were tor the most part bunks and bank vis. The creditors ot the nmortunate concern can generally rfford the loss they will suffer. The dt clino- in stocks b only temporary, and will simply afford sumo- sliaip operators wbo have courage .o make easy lot tunes on the rising of the tide. The belief ot Jay Cooke appears tube ibat the concern will resume in a tew days, but that may be a taith it A according to knowledge. It depends wholly upon now lut and Law tire concern is involved in the NoitUeru Pacific affairs. At alt events, no gctit-.al ffuuncial panic need be apprehended, ifiougii the losses cOnseq lent upou the tailure will go tar and w.de. The immediate cause at the suspension ie te- j por.c-d to be the heavy drawings ol ihc Philudci- | j bia house upon the Washington and New Y’ork ' bronchos. These were dountieea the teeaxion ol j the disastrous embarrassment widen overtook 1 those branches ot the great banking institution and the banks ct Washington, Philadelphia aLd New York in which they were heavily iuteresten; but the o-au.it is beyond It is not the Midland . railroad whose route lies liom Oswego to New Yotk. It L the beauties aud dec.itfuluess oi that isothermal line that wrought the ruin. The Phil adelphia housed Jay Cooke & Cos. were the tiscal agents of the Northern Pacific Road. The swotd ot Damocles has beeu impending over that enter- , prise lor more man a j„-.. ..use uo.t agents have made large advances to the road. The July interest must be paid, the running expenses muR be met. The cost of construction must be pro- | vido-d for. Nearly all of this bas bo-en done with ! the proceeds of ibe sale of bonds, and when the people Incan to twist the isothermal line a lew hundred miles to the southward, and to under stand the approaching bottomlessness of the' scheme, the road failed o. its resources. The Northern Pacific has been chartered tvlittie j more than nine years, mid was to be completed iu ' 1876. Government guve it the right oi way and j alternate sections ot ten square, milea ot Lnd. , The oiiginal charter oid not provide for the issue j of mortgage bonds. An amendment lu 1809, made j in tit: closing hours ot that session of Congress, 1 did so provide. Under the provision the Compa ny lias s >IJ bonds to the amount of over $2,000,L00 bearing gold intererest at the rate ot 7 3 10 per cent. The Company could only pay the annual interest, nearly $2,000,000, by selling more bonds. They have been approaching their own ruin for a year and a half. The failure ot Cooke & Cos. is the preface to a more wide spread misfortune, or to the knowledge ol it—the known worthlessness, or well nigh so, of the Northern Pacific bonds, which are held by farmers and workingmen aud meu of small capital throughout the North and East.

There is a word to be said just hero concerning that usage on which the leiormers exhaust their whole store oi invective, viz.: the banishing of immoral women from society, while immoral men suffer no such exclusion. Il what they urged was the equal reprobation of these off'cLders, well aud good ; but since it is rather their equal social ac ceptance which they contend for, the square truth must be said, thut however these parties may stand before Ileaven, such arc the facts of earth, that : it is the presence ol immoral women, not men, in j society which would instantly fetter .theie the : freedom ot every virtuous member of the sex. It ! is because the line is so strongly aud imxorably drawn between reputable female society and the disreputable, that a man o! careless life is com- j pelied to leave his careless manners behind him \ when lie enters the foimer, certain else to be i promptly kicked out ol it lor his failure in virtu ous etiquette, even by men who might think very lightly indeed of bis lapses Ire in virtuous charac ter elsewhere. Odious were that society wit .-tea j lady must bristle with the airs of a pi ude, to be ' certain ol respectful behavior from the other sex, I and into such bondage would modem womeu in evitably come, in all general ct mpanies were the meretricious of thei. own sex common and un marked there. It is idle to s.-uthneutaiizi about the ut.mi6Uikible airol innocence; it is hateful to vvomer to tie mistaken, even afar ell, in such mat ters ; they Seel sinned by the speculation ot a glance, and it is the silting ot their ov n six which saves them trom such annoyances, even in a word of unsifted men. Uuder present social rules, vir tue is not obliged to proclaim itself, litstly, be cause it is virtue, and, secondly, because it is in the place of viitue; aud th second r -ason would be imnorlant to Diana i! she went mong people who had never peisoual'y heard of Biautt, aid who were disqualified, by having lost their own purity of soul, from knowing her by instinct. It is not pleasant to expound these matters. Nothing ot our presen t subject is pleasant to ex pound ; but it is time somebody undertook to point i ut that all Ibe old wcniauly traditions are not founded iu sheer nonsense, or hardness ot hear!, and women have been especially censured for this uuiquai discrimination for their own eex. We say (hey have at least this one most logical and neceesaiy reason for su;h diseriminaiion, v : z: that free social range tor bad and good women cannot exist together. When Greek courtesans went abroad, Greek wives stayed at home, and were compelled to the ignorance, the rusticity, the meager, 1 al -developed life aud character which are the r* suit ol a c-ged existence. Tuis isati existence which no.ieof us desire, imd to which the daughters o' this republic have never beeu wonted. American womeu have bail an un exampled freedom, because American men have had, on the Krhole, an unexampled tespect for,and belief ir, women. The soil of old Puritan moral ity made the opt ii, confident ground where the women of this country have walked; and however that toundatiou mt y be sinking through the grow ing dissipations of men, our highway oi liberty,as we linve endeavored to show, wculd be far more fatally ruined by the siiiiil.tr diffusion through so ciety of corrupt worn a , Lula.

We learn that a large part of these supplies, especially ot cloih m> "il! be furnished by New York merchants. Ot course we m .ke no complaint against the offi cars for accepting the lowest bids; but the Asy lum is a Georgia institution, supported by taxa tion of the citiz-ns of this Stale, and we believe if the contracts for supplies were restricted to Georgians, exclusively, it would be a more satis facto’-y policy.” A an offset to Mr. Hill’s speech to the farmers, tie Savannah News said : “If losing $50,000 iu a few years at planting ean qualify a man for giv ing advice to agriculturists, then it is peculiarly appropriate that Farmer Hill should lecture at county fairs apd giye yeomaqry of Georgia the benefit ot his skill and experience.
