There are now 50,000 clerks in t his
city, one-tentli of whom are out of,
employment. Those who are so for
tunate as to retain their situations I
are working at reduced rates. The i
largest employer is Stewart, whose
pay-roll in both stores, contains j
nearly I,OQo names, and requires $12,-
tKtU per week. Clatlin is next in im- |
portanee, and his pay-roll is equal to j
$6,000 |>er week. Entry clerks re- j
eeive $500; salesmen, S3OO to $1,200.
Some of these, who sell on commis
sion, make from $2,000 to $3,000, the
commission being one per cent.
Book-keepers receive from SBOO to
$1,200. In every large concern there
is the head book-keeper, who is in
the eonlidence of the linn, and draws
a large salary, generally $2,500.
Stewart has 150 men who use the pen,
and this department occupies aspace
in the wholesale house thrice the
size of his lirst retail store. A half
dozen men are employed to answer
letters. Four men fill up bank
checks and attend to finances.
About thirty are at the books, stead
ily posting and drawing off accounts,
ahd ail these are under the mastery
of a chief accountant, whose salary is
said to be $4,000, Avery large part
of the wholesale domestic trade is
done in the basement, which is very
unwholesome, and vet about sixty
men are here most of the time. A
clerk is at nest a floating character.
They shift from one place to another,
and generally get broken down early
in life. It is a mystery what becomes
of that crowd of youth which every
season flock to the metropolis in
pursuit of wealth, but it may be said
that few ever reach .success, and a
very large proportion go to ruin.

New York yesterday. She anchored
outside. At about midnight site was
discovered to lie on tire. The passen
gers and crew took to open bouts
about daylight.but failed to make a
landing, a strong east wind prevail
ing, The boats were blown out to
sea and have not since been heard
from. Couriers have been sent down
the eoast in search of the missing
boats, and a steam lug and several
st.il boats have gone out cruising lor
them. The steamer will prove a total
loss, with her cargo. She was a N w
York vessel, and lately put on this
line.
No passenger list available.
Quite a gate was blowing at the
time of the fire, and the water run
ning high. Vessels out in search of
small boats return and bring no news
of them. They were blown before
the wind down the coast to westward,
rue chances are they will lie picked
up by vessels from Matagorda and
Indianpiu.
It is reported that the steamer was
struck by lightning, which set her on

THU BASKS OF YF.W YORK.
INTEItESTINO STATISTICS—THE DEMO
CRATIC OPPORTUNITY.
From the Constitutionalist.]
When Senator Bayard was in this
city he dwelt upon the fact that the
savings banks of the East held an
amount of deposits, mainly from la
boring men and women, of almost
fabulous magnitude. The coming
j winter will test these institutions to
| the utmost, for when people get out
of employment, and many thousands
! will be thus fated, they are compelled
| to encroach upon their little hoard
i in the bunk, it would be worth know
| ing, too, iiow deeply these savings
banks have invested in second mort
gages, which, ns Mr. Bayard grimly
remarked, were not now worth the
(taper upon which they were written,
t o get an idea of the entire system
audits grand aggregate of capital,
one Yieed but take New York city as
an illust ration.
The New Orleans Times has been
delving in.this rich mine, and brings
to light the subjoined interesting de
tails: "The capital ot the public
batiks of New York City is $85,0ut),-
:KM. Tnis includes the old State or
ganizations ami the later National
Banks. The one of the largest capi
tal is the (national! Bank of Com
merce, which has $10,1100,000. The
greater part of its stock is owned by
Robert Lenox Kennedy, the (’resi
dent. Tne most prosperous of them
is the City .national? Bank, of which
Moses Taylor is President and al
most entire owner. Its stock is now
won it 300, or 200 above par.
"Ttie richest bank in New York is
the Chemical. This was established
years ago by a family named Jones,
who had made a good deal of money
by the importation of English chem
icals, and when this batik was char
terer! the founders named it the
Chemical Bank.
"The par value of the shares is SIOO
each ; and they are worth $1,600 in
the stock market; that is, $1,600 is ot
ic red wuii no sellers. This institution
Keeps the deposits of the old blue
iloodcd New Yorkers, such as the
Roosevelts, the Gerards, the Van
Rensellaers, and all the rest of the
dd time magnates. Business is done
in the old-fushioned sleepy wa\, no
tioderu emotional Iltmneiering for
s hem. When the war closed the
Chemical had about $150,000 of its
notes outstanding, which were called
,u and redeemed in gold.
"But tne New York Savings Banks
tre the most powerful moneyed iu
stitutions in that city. Although
.-.hoy do not have magmlieeut offices
oid cashiers with hail* parted
in the middle, resplendent wit h din- :
ootid pills, they an possess sloo,otto,- j
(00 more money in deposits than ail 1
.'he rich men’s banks on Wall street I
would have, if they were pooler! to
re! her. There are forty-three of
these institutions, and most of them |
ue on the eastern side, or least
wealthy portion of the city, and if
hose of Brooklyn be included, there |
ire sixty-one. Nearly all of these
ire situated in the Bowery proper,
and are managed by Germans, gener
ally with the commendable thrift of
hat careful and frugal race. On the
■ ii'st of .September, the Savings Banks
had the enormous sum of $223,U9ii,0u0
on deposit and invested. This
itriount belonged to 498,099 persons.
I'lie Germans are the heaviest depos
-■,l'.. *ticii the Irish and of these,
two-thirds were women."
at, ivouet aepeur, from the above
statement., that, in New York, pre
sumably in all other localities at the
North, the most thrifty population is
hat either fori ign-boni or of alien
extraction. If this be true, and the j
vim-nee is apparently convincing, it j
will not be many years before the
immediate descendants of the Celt
itul Saxon shall possess this rich iri-1
heritance of the United Stales. They j
nise large families and save much J
money; and it would seem to be im
possible that the restless, extravn
4nnt and barren stock of "natives”
■an hope to hold their own for any
engthened period, agains t such pro- j
lifie and frugal races. It is a good j
thing materially that, a vigorous and
industrious people should supplant a
weak and spendthrift class, but
whether it is a good tiling, or not, for
air institutions, remains lobe seen.
\Ve tiust that it is, and, at any rate,
if the country is rapidly drifting into
the European or Asiatic form of gov
■rnmeiit, something fixed or definite
is better than something fraudulent
nid hypocritical.
The Times says that “the French
and Italians who save their money
are about equal in number. The ser
vant girls alone have $2,090,009 in t he
hanks, hod the sums a mussed by the
fruit sellers, and kept in the savings
banks, would surprise anyone who
believes them to be a thriftless
class.”
From the statistics thus recorded,
it may be easily understood why the
currency question is of considerable
magnitude and of prevading interest.
If financial chaos and a stoppage of
great industries should occur, this
winter; and if tiie Savings Banks I
have serious withdrawals of their de
posits: awl if their funds have been j
invested largely in second-mortgages
on real estate their future is ono of I
peril. If such contingencies have :
any foundation, and if the Savings |
Banks can not stand the apprehend
ed pressure, there will l>e,in this coun
try a social, political and monetary
earthquake never before known or
felt in its history, ft is to be hoped
that these forebodings may prove
cither unfounded or exaggerated. It
is to be hoped, too, that the next
House of Representatives, so far as
the members are able, will secure the
country at large against any fatality.
If the Democratic majority in the
House will reform in earnest, cut,
down expenses, discourage extrava
gant schemes, kill the wicked lobby
and restore confidence, their fortunes
and those of their party, are made,
more especially if they likewise keep
intact the glorious principles of their
organization which have been so
shame uliy betrayed in the past.

ion which it lias attained in all parts of the
nited States, and the signal developments which
ve taken place in every branch of science, lit
future and art, have induced the editors and
■ublishers to submit it to an exact and thorough
ovision, and to issue anew edition eutitlcd The
AMERICAN CYCLOI’JKDIA.
Within the last ten years the progress of die
overy iu every department of knowledge bus
.tude u now work of reference an imperative
•■■ant.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
itn the discoveries of science, and their lruitiu
pplicution to the industrial and useful arts and
no convenience ami roilnemeut of social life,
rreat wars and consequent revolutions have oc
urred, involving national changes of peculiar
uoumut. The civil war of our own country,
hich was at its height when the last, volume ot
lie old work appeared, has happily been ended,
nd anew course of commercial and industrial
tetivity has been commenced,
lourgn accessions to our geographical kuowl
dgo have been made by the iudofutigablc ex
•lorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of the last do
ude, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
,uve brought into public view a multitude of new
uen, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and
f whose lives every one is curious to know the
articularß. Groat battles have been fought and
mportaut sieges maintained, of which the de
ails are as yet preserved only iu the newspapers
r in the transient publications of the day, but
riiioh ought now to take their place in perma- j
lent ami authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for the press,
t has accordingly been the aim ol the editors to
•ring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish nu accurate secouut ol
Ue most recent discoveries in science, of every
resh production iu literature, utid of the newest
-ivent ions iii the practical arts, an well as to give
succinct and original record of the progress of
■olitical and historical events.
The work has beeu begun after long and care
il preliminary labor, and with the most ample
••sources tor carrying it on to a successful term
nation.
None of the original stereotype plates have
ecu used, but every page huH beeu printed on
iew type, forming in fact anew Cyclopuuiia, with
He same plan and compass as its predecessor,
>ut with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
tud with such improvements iu its composition
.s have been suggested by longer experience atid
nlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which ar<> introduced for the
irst time in the present edition have beeu added
tot for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
(raster lucidity and force to the explanations in
(he text. They embrace oil branches of science
md of natural history, and depict the most
anions and remarkable featuros ol scenery,
irchitcctnre and art, as well as tho various pro
• esses of mechanics and manufactures.
Yithough intended for Instruction rather than
•mbolishment, no pains have been spared to in
mre their artistic excellence; the cost of their
;locution- is enormous, and it is believed they
vill hud a welcome reception as an admirable
■ftture of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its
high character.
pins work is sold to Hubscribers only, payable
