NOTICE
Following a custom of many
years this edition is a “holiday”
issue. For this reason it car
ries no new's items and is pub
lished only to comply with the
laws regarding legal notices.
WHEN WAS IT SAID? !
A few months ago, the unpar
alleled prosperity of our coun
try was the theme of universal
gratulaition.
Such a development of re
sources, so rapid an augmenta
lion of individual and public
wealth, so great a manifestation
of oi the me soffit spirit of oi enterprise, enterprise, so su
strong and seemingly rational a
confidence in the prospect of un
limited success, were never
known before.
But how suddenly has all this
prosperity been arrested!
That confidence, which in
modern times, and especially in
our own country, .s the basis of
commercial mltercourse, is fall
ing in every quarter, and all the
financial interest? of the coun
try seem to be convulsed and
disorganized. . „
The merchant, whose business
is spread out over a wide extent
of territory, and who, regarding
all his transactions as conduct
,d oil safe principles, feared no
%S£?S*iJS? h JZJ£Z
ances and promises which he
has Sds received in tlS? exchange 5fueV for his
losing .nd
his ability to meet his engage
ments is at an end . . . and loss
succeeds to loss, till he shuts up
his manufactory and dismisses
his laborers.
The speculator who dreamed
himself rich finds his fancied
riches disappearing like an ex
halation.
Already, in mr ly a huge fab
ric that but a few days since re
sounded with the roar of engin
ery, all is silent as in a deserted
city. Already many a great
work of public improvement,
upon which multitudes were
toiling to bring it to the speediest
completion, that commerce might
rush upon its iron track with
wings of fire, is broken off, and
stands unfinished, like the work
of some great conqueror struck
down amidst his victories. Al
ready want, like an armed man,
stands at the threshold of many
a dwelling, where a few days
ago, daily industry brought the
supply of daily comforts.
What more may be before us
in the progress of God’s judg
ments—what tumults what
bloody revolutions—we need not
now imagine. It is enough to
know that this distress is hourly
becoming wider and more in
tense; and that no political or
financial foresight can as yet
discover the end.
Amid these present calamities,
and these portentous omens of
the future, it is not strange that
many minds are seeking, and all
voices ar<> debating the cause and
the remedy.
The above sounds as if eould
have been expressed within a re
cent period concerning condi
tions within the past two years,
but according to Dr. Glenn
Frank in The Atlanta Journal it
was spoken by the Rev. Leonard
Bacon from the pulpit of Center
Church in New Haven, Conn., on
May 21st, 1837.

The Scripture saith, “Woe unto

“Wo e unto you lawyers for ye

Wjiether Christmas comes
April or December, if we do not
catch the true spirit of the oc
casion, we are apt to spend
holy days in levelrv, idle gossip,
rioting with liquor and fire
