But now we are led to look at the causes which induced this reckless speculation and fraud, for which the innocent and guilty alike are made to suffer. Who will gainsay that increased habit* of expenditure, and extravagance, and the feverish desire to grow rich rapidly, are not at the bottom of all this misery and distress ? Young men, with moder ate salaries, clerks, Iwmk offirern, book keepers, etc., assume to dress and make the same display in society as their em ployers themselves. This, of course, ex haust* every dollar of their income, and there is no margin reserved for a rainy day, or provision made for the want* of a family, should they be inclined to marry. Hence, they anil usually liegin The commercial community have appa rently decided to make tho be-t of the situation and await the next development.

It is thus that so many defalca tions* theft*, and abu*4cs of public and private confidence occur. Almost every issue of the press adds to their number. But, it may bo asked, what is the remedy for all this ? We answer, it is embraced in one simple word, economy.

But it retjuires money to command these tilings, and hence the untimely fall of many in tlieir .‘(Torts to acquire it by other than strictly honest moans. And worst than all, it is this universal ex travagance which is tho parent of vice in its most repugnant forms, by actually erecting insuperable barriers to tho mar- ringo relation. Young men .hue nut marry on their slender incomes and face the exorbitant demands which will be mode npon their pockets, and the holiest and bust impulses and afTections of the heart are saerflfioed on tho altar of fashion and expediency. Never can there be a return to real virtue and prosperity in the country until these evils are abated. And now while in the Tale of adversity, is a meet time to' inaugurate tho rvfunuat-oil. Parents, guardians, husbands, wives, dAughters and sons, all should heed tho admonition, and henoeforth resolve to practice rrr.Memy. New Orleans Being Drained of Cur rency-Two Millions (lone In Ten Days. The New Orleans Herald, of Sunday, says ■ m« statement has been general upon the str.'ets, and believed by the public, that atmut ten .lays ago there were $1,(S10,U» in currency available to the kinks of this city. The fact was assuring enough at the tunc, but when it became known that onr financiers were permit ting their correspondents and bunks at the North and West to draw away a large portion of this fund, apprehensions were felt, which seemed to Uj realized when the bonks suspended payment of cur- re nev in sums over one hundred dollars per .lay to each depositor. Bat Thurs day a further decrease was made in the accommolating powers of tho banks, and it was announced that no sum above twenty-five dollars in currency would be paid upon eh. cks. After careful inquiry, we condods that upwards of two millions of dollars have been withdrawn from tho safes of this city in the past ten days. This is a f.wrful drain upon the resources of tie market, and the effects will be seen in the inability to move cotton and pro duce—the former, we learn, beingalresdy affected.

The Situation at AuGUsrx. —The Chronicle and Sentinel of Tuesday says of the financial situation in tliat city :i* it appeared on Monday: A it on o the Banks.—During the day we took a tour ainon# the banks, and as certained that affaire had brightened con siderably with several of those which suspended last week. The National Bank of jAak^uauv, >v iitx.li from the firet ha* pre sented a firm front to tue pressure hmi withstood the shock without flinch ini', was paying all check presented as in t*ae most •• flush” times. There was a grati fying evidence of confidence in the lo v ing in of deposit*, and no appearance of tho crisis could h« within the portals of thi bvuk. At the Georgia Rail road R uk cve;ything was going on in th .« must way, so also at the Commercial insurance Bank. The Planters’ Loan and Savings Bank, we found, had re sumed payment to all depositors, in full, paying over tho counter currency for ev ery check presente*!. The Merchants and Planters' National Bank was paying small depositors in cash, and effecting set tlements, when desired, with large Ones in bonds and other securities. Several large deposits were mode in tho bank during the day. It will probably, we un derstand, resume payment in full in a day or two. At tho National Exchange Bank we were informed that payment was l*e- ing made on all checks presented as usual, and that deposits were made freely. Meeting of the Georgia Railroad Directors.—Pursuant to a call, a meet ing of the directors of the Georgia rail road, to consider the plan proposed by the meeting of business men for the issue of $400,000 in short date bonds, in sums of $100 an 1 $50, and $100,000 in $1, $2 and $5 notes, was held at the Georgia Rod- read Bonk at 11 o’clock. There was a full board present, and the session was, a long and animated one. Judge King the President of the road, was absent on account of his illness. Major Geo. T* Jackson, in lieu of the plan presented by the business men, offered a resolution that the board accept the act of the Gen eral Assembly of tho State of Georgia, approved October 19,1870, to continue, extend and renew, for the term of thirty years, the banking powers and privileges granted ty the Geor gia Railroad and Banking Compaany, by an act approved December lsth, 1^35, and proceed to act under it. By the original act which that of 1870 “continues, renews and extends” for thirty years, the company is authorized to use one-half of its capital, or one million dollars, for banking purposes, providing that “the total amount of debts which the said corporation shall at any time owe, whether by bill, bond, note, or other contract, shall not exceed three times the amount of capital stock actually paid in and set apart for banking purposes.” Under this the company might issue notes to the* amount of three times its banking capi tal. The resolution led to a lengthy dis cussion. Its opponents contended that under the Federal law there would be a tax of ten per cent, on the circulation of the bank. Judge Wat M. Boos© also held that an amendment to the charter which the act of 1835, continued by that of 1879, i>—re j uires ru tifica tion by th e stock holders of the road, in convention as sembled. Maj. Jackson and Mr. W. W. Clarke, who supported the resolution, contended, on the other hand, that the amendment had already been virtually accepted by acting under it and carrying on a banking business. The resolution offered by Mr. Jackson was finally, after a long debate, rejected bv & vote of 12 nays to 2 yeas, which were called for and the vote recorded. Subsequently, Mr. George Hilly or offered a resolution that the company invite de posits and pay upon the same interest at the raw of seven per cent, per annum, on thirtv and sixty days’ tim»*, and that the finance committee be authorized to dis count cotton bills with this deposit fund. This iwmlutiisi was adopted, and the Ikourd, after the transaction of some other unimportant business, adjourned. The Eagte and Fhcnix Factory is fur nishing Columbus with currency, all the merchants and the railroads uniting in taking it* change bill* at par for goods and freights. There are less than $3»',- 000 worth of them cut, though the char- the pardon would be plead by attorney, and that if 1 desired 1 could leave the State with impunity. The Hon. B. H. Hill, who is no mean aut hority as a law yer in Georgia, reiterated the same, and in a letter from him now in my possession, he says: “Gov. Smith is of my opinion, and believes your pardon good and valid.” And the Hon. Mr. Tweeoy, in a letter to mo just after an int^view wiflrthe Governor, says: “Governor Smith requests' mo to say to you that your pardon is legal and valid.” Now, after all these assurances from the Governor of the State, from two of the former Chief Justices of the Su preme Court, from such lawyers as B. H. Hill. Gartreli, Stephens and fully a hun dred others, can it be held in equity or justice that the obligation wn ? violated; did not I believe, as did nine-tenths of the legal minds of Georgia that tho par don was good, an l therefore the,necessity of my appearing no longer existed ? In conclusion. I will say, in the language of Cardinal Wolsey, “Had I Served in God with half t::e x»*al I served Gortnwr Bullock, my friends and the State of Geor gia, He would not in mine age have left me naked to mine enemies.” Foster Blodgeit, The merchant* and business men of Rome held a large meeting ou Monday, and passed, among others, the following resolutions: Resolved, That we advise our bankers to issue to their present depositors cer tificates of indebtedness, bearing interest at ten per cent., payable in ninety days, and receivable for the dues of the holders of the same to the banks, and to be issu .*d in such sums as will enable them to dis charge their own obligations, aud at the same time afford temporary relief to the community. Reoolved, That should such certificates be issued, we pledge ourselves to sustain them by receiving them for goods and merchandise, and give to them our moral support and influence; having every con fidence in the abundant solvency, integ rity and good faith of Messrs.

New Yook, September i’3. -rday Gpald asked for his view; concerning the financial situation gave them as follows: I think the panic i < over. I cave every faith now in an a Ivam-o in pr -es, md believe the market will b * more buoyant than for a long time. Wall street will have been eleored out o: a gr mt part of the worthless sto ks and so called securi ties by the purging process of the panic, and there are comparatively few stocks now quoted except tho-e of real value. In all cases, prices are now • too low and in that of good dividend paying stocks a very large advance is necessary to bring them up to their actual worth. The reasons for an advance are: That the money market will betoma easy as soon as the stock exchange is opened, owing to the very large quantities of green backs which hare been disbursed by the government in its late bank purchases; that an immense amount of capital has been put into circulation by the action of the banks in issuing Clearing House cer tificates which displace a corresponding quantity of currency; that England is sending- over mdlions of gold which will oome into active use immediately on ar rival, and that speculation has had such a long sleep that it will be all the . more lively when it wakes up again. dischasoi.vg nxciluacs. The disturbed state of the money mar ket has made it necessary for some large firms in this city to discharge many of their hands and give others only three or four days' work a week.

Permanent organization was effected by the of Horatio Seymour, presi- dcLt. ovUij ituiv. ntion, who, on taking tb- ehauv siii i: U o meet at a time when unusmit interest i» felt in the action of nominating conventions. The disturbed state o h-iunces, a heavy burden of toxo- t on, f /equ mt ex^-osure of official corrup tions, excite t ie attention of the public to the character of those who are placed before them as candidates for officer Party ties will not hold voters to the sup port or any who are not felt to be fitted for public stations, bj their integrity and capacity. Tno real object of this convention must be to place in nomina tion men of the highest character and of undoubted capacity, to conduct oar State affairs. If this is done we‘can elect them. The gains made by tho Democratic party at the election last spring, show that the popular voice lias already set in our favor, if we give them candi date* who deserve their support. In a large number of the towns and counties of the State there are two minorities— Liberal Republibans, who cannot go with the administration, and members of the Democratic party. They find when they go together that they become the major ity. Acting upon this fact, at the spring elections they united upon local candi dates, having regard only to fitness and strength, and the result was a gain of nearly one hundred towns, and the con trol of a number of counties heretofore opposed to ns. Let ns act in the same spirit of good sense and patriotism and we shall not only carry the counties of New York, and thus gain politi al ..trengtli in sill it* se > tion*; but wo s\all also put our great State into it rig itful position. That of the stronghold oa those who seek to bring back our Government to it* ancient sim plicity, accuracy and constitutional ac tion. As this is State and local election, we are relieved from the discussion of many object*, with regard to which there are honest diffcren>*es. We must direct all our thought* to gain this end. We must put in nomination a tick et made up of' men with records clean, and characters so‘ pmv, and of capacity so undoubted that we shall feel when our work is done that it will be elected, because we shall know those who ought to be elected.
