THE FINANCIAL CRISIS. ^ The all-absorbing topic at present, as well in the public journals as in the business circles, is the fip nancial crisis, which, beginning with the suspension of the great % banking house of Jay, Cooke & Co. of New York, and involving some of the leading business houses ot the North, like some dread epidemic, is making progress South, and threatens to paralyze the commercial interests of the whole country. To what extent the evil is to exist, and how long it is to continue, aiford material for various speculations. There is 110 doubt that the crisis is much more serious than was at first anticipated, and has involved in its reach much wider interests. It was supposed at first to be confined to reckless speculators, and to be outside and apart from the legitimate channels ot business. It doubtless originated there, and from the causes assigned, but it seems not to be confined to that class. Credit is so delicate a thing that the least occasion of distrust blasts it like the mildew, and so intimate are the connections of business, that a shock felt in one part ol the commercial system afl'ects its remotest ramifications. It was thought that we of the South would cscape, but the suspension of the banks in Augusta, Petersburg, and other Southern cities shows the wide-reaching extent of the evil. The public journals of the country have generally taken a hopeful vie.v of the crisis, and have argued that with the present prosperous condition of trade, with the balance in our favor, and with our grain and cotton coming to market, anything more than temporary embarrassment is out of the question. They have attributed the crash to over trading in worthless railroad onrl nanfvinll ir tr> +lif> reek less speculations of Wall street brokers. On this point Lear the New York Herald: "The country has long dcprccated the wild and reckless spirit which has characterized the transactions in Wall street. But these things wcro only looked upon as disgraceful to the persons engaged in them, and it was not thought tluit their speculations could affect the general prosperity. It is now seen, however, that the panic of the past few days was entirely due to them, and that if a crash comes it will be because of their machinations. I To some extent the contest is between legitimate business and reek less speculation. Either tho commercial and financial supremacy of Wall street must be overturned or our true business interests succumb to tho whims and selfishness of tho gamblers in stocks and gold. If a crisis is averted at this time when such strenuous efforts aro made to excite it, forcing tttocks and gold up and down will noj longer bo regarded with fear, audi when a speculative banking house fails in the future it will be on!}' an episode like the defalcations of the cashier of a trust company or the abstractions of a paying teller in a banlc. This will be in itself a triumph in favor of the stability of legitimate enterprise and a further security for the national credit." But whatever be the cause, the cffect remains, and the whole business operations of the country are for the time being prostrated. The lack of currency stops all exchange. 111U UUVCI IllllVlit op <4? mva^ui V> \JA relief has sold some $10,000,000 of bonds, and the bankers of Xew York have issued a like amount of loan certificates to take the place of currency among themselves. But these are only temporary measures, and indeed it is to be hopedi that the evil against which they provide is only temporary. If the condition of the business houses of the country is as solvent as represented, and the general interests of the land so prosperous, it is difficult to couceive how any material '"disaster can grow out of the present embarrassment, or how it can be otherwise than a temporary one. Say8 the Herald: 4>\Yc must not forget, however, that! thero is sufficient ??ravitv in the doubts of the future to require united and unselfish action. The prosperity of every branch of business depends upon the preservation of the national credit. If United States bonds are forced below their actual value it can only bo to serve tho purposo of un scrupulous speculator?. It' the Treasury reserve is illegally encroached upon, or the government is as utterly stripped of currency as the speculative brokers, it must bring evil consequences to the country. If tho banks fail to hold together, or even bend before tho storm, it involves the ruin I of every interest and industry, from ono end of the land to the other.! This, then, is the time to disregard the predictions of alarmists and to .....I n?n....Anu llvr? tiiivnriunu nf IlH'Ul* illlU DUJ>jM Will buu JMII|>V..VU ?. unscrupulous speculators. The battle is now become tbe battle of the people. Moderation is the truest policy of the hour. Nothing is to bo gained by devising doubtful measures of rolidf. On the othci* band victory is to he gained by doing nothing. A? yet the panic has been entirely artificial. Not a single legitimate enterprise has; failed. Business mori have experienced no extraordinary embarrassment, and can experience none unless extraneous causes entiee people from doing ordinary business in tho ordinary fray. The banks might not be| ?b!o to withstand the shocks ui uih-1 versal madness and folly, but, for tliej moment, they are the bulwarks of the} national prosperity. Harm to them means serious hurt to everybody?: pj>t*ali!c). of; ! ! I lllll WffimiYl ljfT'7 WfllMBM gMMlMlrfi I |their duty faithfully to pursue, till the end, the wiso policy they adopted in the beginning. Wo havo every faith that business men and the people generally will support them if they earnestly endeavor to maintain themselves; and, when tho victory is gained, it will bo one of tho noblest in history." The Apfroacuixg November Fair at Columbia.?From all we can gathor, tho officers, and tho Columbia peo plo generally, are making a splendid ! effort to have tho approaching Fair, to be held in Columbia from the lOlh to the 14th November, the grandest gathering and scene ever witnessed in Columbia. The premium list has . becu enlarged, the grounds enlarged and put in tine fix, the hotel accommodations are improved, and the houses of the citizens will be thrown open during the week; besides, the Auxiliary Joint Stock Company are adding largely to the attractions by giving some ?5,000 in speed and horse premiums. Wo look for a general re union of our best peoplo lrom all over the State at Columbia during the Fair week. : 4^4 IKaT' The Columbia Board of Trade has passed resolutions expressive of unimpaired confidence in the stability of the city banks, and also the following, embodying their opinion as to the temporary character of the present financial crisis: Resolved, That in the opinion of this Board this universal crisis should not excite any undue apprehension at the South, occurring, as it has, with all of our cotton crop in the hands of our farmers In a few weeks this cotton must. hrin<r a voi v larcc amount of O * J gold or currency to the South, and this will necessarily remove the present stringency of the money market. White Ekotiiers.?Mr. L.TT. Whit? of this well known linn, has just laid in a largo and superior Fall and Winter stock, which the}' arc now offering to the farmer in exchange for his cotton. The goods have been bought low, and will be sold at low rales, whilst the highest rates will be paid by them for cotton in exchange, llere is an inducement to our farmers to bring on their cotton and purchase their supplies. They offer a varied assortment of choice goods, to which they invite attention. Give them an early call. Sickness in Anderson.?Our Andersen exchanges publish a letterj from the members oi'the Bar of' that town, addressed to Judgo Cooke, in which they state that there is nothing in the reported sickness of that county to warrant a postponement f| the court;* but should that step be deemed advisable, they request that an extra court be held at some time! between tho Abbeville and W'alhalla sessions. (^" President Gricr and Professors Young and Hood, of Erskine College,! were in Abbeville on Saturday. They report that the exercises of the Col| lege have been resumed with flattering prospects, that some nineteen I new students have arrived, and others are expected. The College merits all the patronage it may receive, ar d we I I * ~ I. - P ! A. are jHuuseu 10 near 01 ns success. gST Mr. Edward F. Stokes, ofj (Jreenville, is again in trouble. 111 seems that at the late session of the! court in Greenville, ho refused to an-! swer certain interrogatories as to' property which wore j)ropountled un-' dcrthe Code of Procedure, and was committed to jail by Judge Cooko for j contempt. He sues now for release under Habeas Corpus before Judge Willard, and the case is still pending. Sad Accident.?We regret to learn that .Robert, a von of Mr. J. S. Rich, of the neighborhood of Little Mountain, was smothered under a cotton heap, a few days since. The children had made a hole in the cotton, in which tin!}' wcro playing, when iti fell in, burying the child, with the above fatal result, lie was buried at Bethia church on Thursday last. Photography.?Wedirectattcntion i to the card elsewhere of Mr. J. M. Dodson, our well known and popular photographer, lie has returned thoroughly equipped for work, and is prepared lo exeeute pictures in the highest style of his art. Now is the time, in the mild, clear Fall weather, to have your pictures taken, and we can recommend our artist to the patronage of our people.

Ho is the worthy scion of an esteemed family, and has a brijrht future before him. o Religious.?A large and interesting meeting, continuing for three days, was held during the past week at Turkey Creek Baptist Church, under the superintendence of the pastor I the Rev. Jl. R. Burts, and the Rev. V. Young assisting. On Sunday especially was there a large attendence, and some seventeen persons were immersed.

The program mo of exercises was of tho most varied character and the several pieccs were most successfully rendered, eliciting frequent plaudits from the sympathizing and appreciative audience. The Cha rades, "Domestic," "Phantom,"'.'Purse Proud," and ".Mistake," and tho closing farce, "Tho Dead Shot," wore all well rendered and kept alive tho interest of the audience to a li te hour The success of the entertainment, we trust, will lead to a repetition of the ~ T.. i 1 ? 1.. .1 T .. periormances. jui luu kick u* iiiuuov;mcnts. they furnish au entertainment bath innocent and instructive.
