Tns New Orleans l*ieaynne says: Not long ago a country storv. in dose prox imity pi the dty. had one or two lioxes of torpedoes, that are about the sixe of a wren’s egg. left ever from its holiday stock. In rsurrsngmg tho shelves one ol the little boxes was opem.l and all its .'ntents given away, except one single Usrpetic, which, reeemhling a “binl’s egg” .wiiily, as the colored folks call them, was left on the counter. A wisedooking eld negro rode up to that storo on a ma licious-looking hone about nine o’clock st night. He hitched hi, “critter.” and came into the store to got a dram. While ths clerk was pouring thisoutold grinly- h ud, thinking that where even the smslle.t things are available, opportuni ties should not be lost, slid his horny prim over that “binl'a egg candy, and hauled it in. Then he made out like he was putting a chew of tobacco in his mouth. He idled his apparent quid with his tongue back to his jaw teeth and then he niu-t have shut down upon - tight, foe the explosions of yells, and shrieks, and howls, and sulphur smoke -■•.Jtningl -d that ensue 1 was perfectly awful. The old negro tore out to his ll- howling, and. under the impression ‘a»t he had got ’oonjund.’ fled as fast as •orry bouss could fly. The next morning the clerk picked up. on the floor of a store twenty-eight miles below New Orleans, a jaw tooth that smelt of bum- mber—forty-eight—being Ridi | cals, and a majority of them the most I Hcoundrclly, venomous negroes in the le dty.

We may look to sew them thrust their .fool fingers deeper than ever into tho pockets of the property-holders of poor Charles ton, and inaugurate a saturnalia of rob- (■cry that wdl put to shame even the annual raid perpetrated at Columbia by tha brigandfi of the no-called Legi*lature.

Heaven help the poor whites who are forced to remain and endu^ the weight of this intolerable burden. They have our heartfelt sympathy. They can do nothing at present, to relieve themselves, but they have hearts and memories. Let them keep alive the fires of righteous in dignation against the accursed party that has wrought such ruin and degradation, and teach their children to remember, also. Tho whirligig of time bring* about trange revenge*, and among them there may be, in tho fntnre, full vengeance for the wronged, and st »rn retribution to the wrong-doers. Lot them bear preient ills with stout heart* and steady nerve, and nbovo all let them stand together. Tlie .Situation full of Hope. The Herald's financial article of Mon day says that, viewed :rom any stand point, the situation is full of hope. First, l>ecaiue of the thro win r upon the market of a part, at least, of t*i» anticipated No vember interest on government bonds; second, because the Bo ;on bank* will, this week, declare aemi-ann^uil dividends to tho amount of S2.1h(».0U0; thirl, be cause a tide of gold !ia* M?t. fchi.v way from England; ** fourt t. large sums of currency wt-ru put in motion on Friday and Satunlay. and money could be had at seven per cent, iut-trost; fifth, cur rency has been sent to New York from hundred* of source* for investment in docks whenever tho Stock Exchange opens and price* lieoome steady. All this capital, come from what source it may, will eventually find its way bock into the (sink-*, and so enter upon its usual round of u*efuln<«.*. Finally, our export* for the post week show a de cided increase above tlw? average, and ore not likely to encounter any more than a temporary check at tlie worst, b.»eau*e stringency will disappear with distrust, and distrust is rapidly passing away.” Wall Street on Sunday. The World, of the 20th, thus describes the hunt Lord's Day in Gotham. There could l>o no better evidence of reviving confidence .than the contrast present 'd tho preceding Sabbath: The field of tho financial lmttle of the l*at ten days was quiet enough yoster- djiy. It wa* a day of rest in fact as well a* in name. All tho brokers. tho*o that arc strong as well ns the shaky one*, seemed to have arrived at a somewhat correct understanding of their asset* and liabilities, and there was seen none of that feverish consultation of account- books and striking of balances which made the street so peculiar in appearance oi^the first Snnday of the panic. Only in thn'e or four cases were clerks found at work yesterday on their leilger*. The offices were in general handed over to the care of the janitor and charwoman who was busy scrubbing and dusting in readiness for the rush and turmoil of the coming week. Almost the only on*^ vis ible in the vicinity were the working people of the First Want, who wore en joying the fine day in the open air. At the Clearing-house, which a week l>efore jiujuntorl such an active scene, all was still. On Exchange place on open board of boy brokers had assembled; instead, however, of kicking stock* up and down, they made use of a foot-bull, which the wooden pavement allowed them to work to advantage.

Five Tiiocband Dollars in Gold in our Factories.—At one of odr fairs we hod occasion to mention specimens ex hibited by a model planter in Florida. Everything almost used in hi* household d on his plantation ore produced on bis n land. He raises horses, mules, cat tle, hogs, corn and provender, and has time to make plenty of cotton. He grinds sugar cone and manufactures hia own molasses and sugar. He is decidedly one of .the most independent men of whom we have ever read or heard. The gentle man of whom we speak is ulreody a lor; stockholder in one of onr cotton manufac tories, and on the last boat he brought five thousand dollars in gold to invest in a new factory which the company has in contemplation. The Savannah News, of Wednesday, says thirty-five hands employed in the car building department of the Central railroad were discharged on Tuesday. The general business depression rendered this reduction necessary. The Savannah Chamber of Commerce ha* passed the following resolution: Resolved, That this Chamber suggest to tho bonks the policy of issuing bills of exchange on New York of small denomi nation* to be in all cases drawn on the bonks there with which they keep their accounts, and against balances which they lm ve; that such bill* of exchange would JXW3 in all part * of the State and tlie adjoining States, and would famish a medium through which the produce of the country could be paid for und for warded to market. From the Chronicle and Sentinel, of Wednesday, we quote as follows: We havo but little change to report in tho financial condition this morning. Tho (tanks were about in the same situa tion as on Monday, the National Bank of Augusta. Georgia Railroad Bank. Com mercial Insurance Rank. Notional Ex change Bank, Planters’ Loan and Sav ings Bank, J. J- Cohen A Sons and G. P. Curry, plying us usual, and the Bank of Augusta issuing certified checks to depos itors.

Boiler Explosion—A Terrible Ac cident—Two Men Seriously 1 , and Two Slioiitlt Injured—Destruction of Property.—About nine o'clock yester day monrng people living near the Au gusta Factory were startled by a loud noise, as of an explosion, in the direction of the carpenter shop of Messrs. Clements A Finch, situated on Fenwick .street, near Marbury. It was soon ascertained that the boiler of the engine used for running the machinery in the shop had exploded, wounding several men, and considerable excitement ensued in the Tho Old Commodore Breaking 1 0own.

Shortly after the occurrence our reporter proceeded to the spot, where a scene which almost beg gars description, met his view. Tho en tire east end of the carpenter shop, a long, low building, wu.* in ruins, under neath which was buried the wreck of the boiler and engine. Fenwick street in front was covered with bricks from the frbll chimney, which had been literally scattered to the four winds. Mr. Peter Sherou’s residence, across the street, pre sented the appearance of having been bom barded, the windows and doors being bro ken, the fence down, and the whole front of the house blackened. All sorts of reports in regard to the cause of the explosion and the extent of the damage were cur rent. The following particulars were .leaned from parties who were in the hop when the catastrophe took place. About nine o'clock Mr. Thomas Prince, the engineer, was busily engaged in get ting the engine ready for work. There were in the engine room at the time five persons—the engineer, Mr. J. L. Clem ents, one of the proprietors, Mr. Thomp son Sullivan, a workman, and two colored bricklayers. Gas Youngblood and Isaac Locket^ who had just completed some re pairs on the furnace. As stated by Mr. 1 Vince and Mr. Clements, there were three gauges of water in the boiler, and the steam gauge indierted forty-fiv. hip European id in • mo Ll .

Central, Harlem and Lake Shore, have been subjected to the severities of the occasion. The “old Commodore” has so often come to the re lief of his stocks in times of difficulty; he has done so many brilliant things in the way of “bulling” them when attacked by the “bears” that there has been a sort of superstition about their keeping their hood* up in any stonn. It is doubtless true that, even in hi.* best days, the Com modore could not have kept up his stocks I under such circumstances. But I guess I that the Commodore himself has at Last I begun to feel the effects of time. Every I afternoon he takes a long drive, all alone. I in a single seat buggy, in the Central Park ; and you cannot look at him with out seeing that a marked change is taking place in his pors*iuAl:ty. ^ He still looks somewhat dlgnifiei aud jaunty, with his white necktie, his pretty good tailoring, and his nice barberiring, especially about tho whiskers ; but four score years are at larit beginning to tell the tale of age. In brit'f, old ao* is overcoming him, and the j unmistakable sign of it cannot be con i' corded. His erect figure is decidedly less straight than it was, and the facial bones j are giving solemn evidence of the order of his anatomy. His organic and in- - I telle 'tual forces are, doubtless, also losing their vigor; and he probably than two thousand pounds w. 1 feels but little disposition to indulge , covering hisbody.it* in those heavy speculative operations I bv which his colossal fortune has j been built up. His personal condition 1 lias manifested itself, very certainly, by J his course during the panic. He xiim* \\ is., took self, in fact, was largely responsible for ather dAV. 1 the panic which has caused all this de- * predation in his *t<v«ks. Ha-i he come ' to the relief of the Caion Trust Company j by laying the million and a half or two millions of dollars which he had borrow* ed from it, it would have been saved. an*i we would not have been visited by the universal want of confidence which tol- j lowed its suspension, and which has U*eiJ so disastrous to the gto<*k Exchange, and. so damaging to the banks. In none of j his movements during the crisis have hi» j ancient powers been displayed. All hi» j movements have beencharu'-terixed either by exaggeration or vacillation. I aide, a distance of over twohundred yards ! from the engine. The fence immediately I behind the shop, and through which Gus I Youngblood was blown, was demolished ; for some distance. On the north side at the em-t end, where the engine was loca ted, the destruction was great. The en tire shed was blown down and the tall I chimney, which was used as the exit for the smoke and the steam, completely de molished. A great number of the bricks were thrown into Fenwick street and :.y ]. ; r.>--l aeros* it, through the win- dows and doors of Mr. Piter Sheron’s res idence opposite# several going some dis tance beyond and falling in the yard. The front of the house was battered and blackened and the fence thrown down. Every pane of glass in the front windows w&3 smashed and the doors badly dam age* 1. The members of Mr. Sheron's family were in the house at the time, bat, fortunately, none of them were injured by the missiles. Two of his children, however, were blown from the hopse into the back yard by tho force of the concussion, and one of them, a little girl, slightly scalded about t ii ■ f*--t by t' • hot rpny from the l»oiler. Several bricks were also hurled through the windows of the lower story of Beth- e*<la Hall, used a* a school room, just ubqye Mr. Sheron's. There were only three persons in the school room at the time — Miss Holden, the teacher. Miss Mat. 'Whitehead, one of the pupils, and another young girl, also a pupil. The other scholars were out in the back yard, the teacher having just put her hand on the bell to announce the school hour when tho explosion occurred. Miss Whitehead, who is an adopted daughter of Mr. Mc- Conkle, was struck by a brick and slight ly injured. Neither of her companions was hurt. All the panes of glass in the front windows were broken. As soon as possible after the accident. Sir. Clements was extricat 'd from the debris and re moved to hi* residence, near by, and a physician summoned. It was discovered that a beam had fallen across his abdo men, inflicting internal injuries. His face was severely bruised and scalded. He was perfectly conscious, and conversed freely about the explosion. His pulse, however, was very low, and fears of his recovery were expressed. About half-past six o’clock last evening we learned that he had been sleeping, and that his condition was much better, the indications being in favor of his recovering from his injuries. Mr. Finch estimates the damage to pro perty of the firm at about $2,000. The damage to the residence of Mr. Sheron was also considerable, but wo did not learn its exact extent. Mrs. Peter Butts, of Upson county, was thrown from a buggy at Thomas ton last Saturday and seriously injured. The large merchant mill of Mr. Mason Huguely, near Stroud's Cross Roads, in Monroe county, was burned one night last week, causing a loss of several thou sand dollars. Incendiary. * Mr. Joel 'Wages, of Gwinnett county, died Lost week, aged seventy-five years. He had lived in the same neighborhood for over fifty years, and was the father of twenty-three children. BY TELEGRAPH. Trip to Dalilonegra. The Air-Line Railroad afforded a com fortable ride, a good class of coaches and small railroad towns every few miles. Gainesville is growing. A commodious brick hotel, four stores and the postoffice right at the depot, several handsome res idences, a large brick seminary, almost completed, and a brick church with its foundation laid. I went to Dahloncga by the hack line that runs daily on the arrival of the train, from Atlanta. And those who will realize the invigorating influence of the atmos phere and the beauty of the scenery on the way, must make the trip for them selves. And when you reach Dalilonega, you are in the midst of tho most beauti ful hills and spurs of mountains to be seen in any portion of the country. From thence you look upon ranges of moun tains, and yon look down upon the near valley farms, that makes tho scenery un surpassable. There is certainly as fine a climate in this section, as in any portion of the State; and it only awaits increased intelli gence and capital to demonstrate that the valleys and hill-sides of North East Georgia are equal in capacity for grain and grass crops, and the raising of stock of every description, to any portion of the Southern States. The North Georgia Agricultural College, located at Dahlone- ga, is now the great centre of attraction, for that entire section of the State. North East Georgia has always been cut off in great measure from educat : onal ad vantages—now this lack is supplied. They now have in their college a good and cheap institution of learning. The People, generally, of that section, have .imited means, and this college only cost* pupils five dollars initiation fees at the beginning of each session; and excel lent board can be had at from eight to ten dollars per month, and this brings an excellent education within the reach of thousands of young men who were prac tically shut out of the good schools and colleges by the costing of tuition and board, and the general expenditures con- D«i*t«*d therewith. This college was opened last January, and has had an average of one hundred and sixty pupils, and it continues to grow in the confidence aud esteem of its pat rons. And, surely the patrons of educa tion throughout the State ought to con gratulate themselves that there is estab lish*-1 su.-’.i an in-tit-Uion of learning in so important a region of the State. Many youth of limited means from every sec tion of the State will be educated there, and many from the debilitating climates below will have their health built up while getting a good education. G. Two Scraps of History. The Cincinnati Commercial dig3 up two scraps of history that will be .new to most people, but which are of interest even at this day. It says: Some ancient history may not be inap propriate in this connection, and we re mark that two of the prominent citizens of Ohio who narrowly escaped the presi dency were Thomas Ewing and William Allen. Thomas Ewing would have been nominated and elected vice-president in stead «>f Fillmore if Lewi? L> Campbell had not rejected, at the head of the Ohio delegation, the tender of the nomination to the Ohio man best known as the friend of Henry Clay. This, of coarse, was done in tlie moment of irritation following the nomination that Mr. Webster said was “ not fit to be made.” A* for Allen, he was offered the Demo cratic nomination by the Baltimore Con- DAY DISPATCHES.

From seventy-five to | vention, in the midst of the contest be- ninety pounds of steam was required to j tween the friends of Van Buren and Cass, run the engine. A new stetm gauge was but*was under obligations to Cass, and put in place last Wednesday, and not ! refused it.

When the gauge indicated forty- five pounds yesterday morning, Mr. Clements gave the driving wheel a turn, in order to start the engine. The steam, however, n.>t being sufficient, the ma chinery refused to move, and Mr. Clements put the wheel back on the centre. He had hardly done this when a terrific explosion occurred. Mr. Prince was lifted up and thrown across a partition into the carpen ter shop, where there were about fifteen workmen at the time. He was not injured, however. Mr. Cements was buried be neath a pile of br>;ks and timber, not less ht of the L Mr. But when the time came, Yallandigham prevented the unity of the Ohio delega tion upon him, and Franklin Pierce was, instead of William Allen, nominated and became President. The services of Mr. Yallandigham in this particular were never forgotten or forgiven, and the tri umph of Thurman for the Senate six years ago was tinged with the splendor of a personal victory on the one side, and touched with peculiar bitterness on the other, by the mutual recollections of the past. Some years s r nce Elias Howe suc ceeded, to the satisfaction of the Patent Office, in establishing his claim to have Sullivan was pro~trsted by the shock, but I invented the sewing machine.

New York Democratic Convention. Tlie Platform of the Party. Utica, October 2.—The Democratic State Convention met at 10 o’clock this morning. The committee on resolutions submit ted the platform :w follows: Wu condemn aud denounce the salary grab, and all Congressmen, Democratic or Republican, who voted for it, or who have not renounced all share in the plun der seized for service already done and paid for. We condemn and denounce the Presi dent’s signature to the bill which clinplicd this’ iniquity, and which gave $5,000 to each Congressman, while procuring $100,000 for himself, after Congress had just refused to increase his salary; and we demand it* repeal. We demand a revenue reform, so that custom-hojise revenues shall be got from low, aud therefore protective, duties on a few articles, and not from high, and therefore less productive, duties on 2,000 articles. We demap d a return to specie pay ments. We demand that the p;licy of paper inflation, protective tariff and gov ernment subsidies shall bo abandoned to the half civilized nations and ages, of which it is a relic, because it plunders the farmers of the United States, both in their incomes and -outgoes; it ham strings our manifold industries: it con verts oar foreign commerce into an un safe speculation, and our domestic trade into a game of chance; it breeds extrav agance in our homes and dishonesty in public and private trusts; it foists cor rupt combinations of sectional interests, and it is the prime cause of the late financial disasters. In the midst of these wide spread ca lamities and this general distress, we scent the President’s pill for panics— more inflation, more subsidies, and more ballooning, and we point the country to their true remedy and cure, in the tried and historical principles of the old democ racy, applicable throughout our National, State and municipal life which limit and localize (?) most jealously tho powers en trusted to public servants; which enforce honesty and frugality in public and pri vate affair.*, which prescribe equal taxa tion for all. and currency as good as gold; and we hold out to the farmers of the United Suites the right hand of hearty fellowship in their just resistance to the exactions of monopolists, and. their just demands for these great reforms. Resolved, That those who are trusted by our laws with the appropriation and expenditure of public money should be subjected to the same restrictions, rules and regulations that are imposed upon the tax-payers and collector*, and should, in like manner, be required to keep such accounts of their business affairs as are demanded of merchants and manufac turers, so that an examination of their books and transactions will show any frauds and corruption in their official busicess; that they shall take and sub scribe to official oaths, at proper periods, that they have not in any way been un lawfully benefited by their official action. Resolved, That we recoganize in the Liberal Republicans, worthy coodjuta- tore, ami we cordially invite them to unite with us in our effort* to restore pure government in our State and Fed eral administrations. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. The Convention then proceeded to nominate a State ticket. Diedrich Wil- lers, Jr., of Senica, was nominated for Secretary of State; Thomas Raines, Liberal Republican, and the present in cumbent, was nominate*! for State Treas urer ; Sylvansus N. Sweet, was nominat ed for Stat«* Engineer; A. P. Nichols, received the no .filiation for Comptroller. The nomination for Attorney-General was next in order, and Daniel Pratt was selected.

Philadelphia, October 1.—Tho ninth game of the championship series between the Boston and Philadelphia clubs, each club having won four, came off to-day at •the Atlantic grounds and attracted about 5,000 persons. Nicholas Young acted as umpire. The Bostons won the toss and sent PliiLodelphia to the bat. The friends of the White Stockings became wild si Cutlibert, Wood, Myerle and Bechtel each secureda run. The Boston* then went to the bat and tied Philadelphia. Barnes. Spalding, White and O'Rourke scoring runs. In the second inning .Wood made a run for Philadelphia and Barnes one for Boston, again ticing the scon*. In the third and fourth innings tho Phila delphians wore blanked, while the Bos tons scored two in the third and four in the fourth. Philadelphia added one to tho score ,in the fifth inning, while the Bostons made four. The Philadelphians were blanked in the next two innings, the Bostons making one, and in the sixth and seventh received their only goose eggs. In the eighth inning each side scored one. Commencing with the eighth inning the score stood: Boston 17, Phil adelphia 7. ^ Philadelphia opening the inning with spirit, had scored four, with only one out, when darkness came on and the game was called. Betting was heavy and much money was lost by the friends of the White Stockings, who anticipated a victory. Tho score was as follows: Philadelphia, 4,1,0,0.1,0,0,0,1—7; Boston, 4,1,2,4,4,1,0,1—17. The large score was mainly from errors, there being only two runs earned by the Philadelphians and one by the Bostonians. Another Livingstone Lost.

THE MONEY PANIC. The Mennonito prospectors who wore* in this country in the early part of bust summer, submitted on their return to Russiajui exhaustive report on the West ern States of the Union. Among the recommendations to their people they re port in favor of Texas for cattle raising, Kansas for tlie growing of fruit, and Minnesota for the cultivation of wheat. Some of these Mennonite agents are. still wandering about through the Northwest, looking for good lands to colonize. An Hlinoisan. who has the mammas of three of his temporary matrimonial part ners still living under his roof, heads a movement to procure an amendment to the divorco laws including mothers-in law in the process of separation.

A IPredlrtlon that Great and Fatal Mlckness will Follow. New York Correspondence Boston Journal.] It is considered an even chance whether the panic has reached its height or not. Five thousand men close tlie week in poverty who opened it in wealth and posi tion. It is said that Jay Gould is the only man on the street whose note is worth more to-day than it was ten days ago. He has male millions by the dis aster. Physicians say that fatal sickness fol lows invariably these terrible panics. The excitement and the fright is ruinous to health. Strange enough Bright’s disease follows one of these crashes. Keep, Lock- wood, Little, and other eminent bankers died shortly after their failure. A man who had lost terribly said yes terday, “ I liavo lost my money and my energy, and tho worst of it is that I am twenty years older than I was yesterday.” A dozen men rule and ruin New York. “ Dog will not eat dog,” but bull will eat ball and bear will eat bear. In Wall street the son will turn against the father and the son-in-law will ruin the father-in-law. No man trust* the honor of any man on the street, except in the mere matter of payments. A clique is formed to bull or bear a stock. The round robin is hardly signed before the parties look out for a chance to sell out. The man who betrays his associates first is the sharpest fellow. A case in point: A gentleman left the street with five millions. He took leave of his associates and started on a Euro pean tramp. He came home a short time ago, and several operators, among them two or three wealthy bank presi dents, invited him to a dinner. An inci dental reference was made to a great speculation in which the parties were in terested. There were millions in it. Heated by wine,'the guest was induced to venture once more on tho treacherous seas of speculation. Every dollar of his fortune is wiped out. He has not money enough to pay a week’s board; his sys tem is shattered so that he never will be able to do any more business, and he has to be watched closely to keep him from suicide. The whirr of the partridge, tho whistle of the quail, and the flurry of the wood cock through the bushes are sounds not unfrequently heard by pedestrians in the secluded northern p*rt of Central Park. New Alstbad, N. H., boast* that “ev ery eighth person in that vicinity is over seventy years of age;*' which simply proves that the birth-rate must have been very small this century.
