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.
