Tito Condition of Trade. Tlie New York Times, in noticing tho remarks of a Western journal, that "tho entiro Northwest is overrun by drummers for Eastern houses, whoso only dosiro seems to be to got orders and fill thom, regardless of tho ability of those who order to pay their bills at maturity," remarks, that "twelve months ago a similar warning carno from tho South. Eastern houses that sought opportunity for expansion sold freely on credit, and a very large proportion of tho goods remain unpaid for to this day. Weak traders suffer in consequence, and other inconveniences are aggravated by thc unpromising aspect of Southern indebtedness." It cautions against crediting the West any more than tho South, alleging that reports from tho West prove the necessity of extreme caution, and quote? the Chicago Tribuno aa a witnoBs. That paper &ays: "From every quarter there is but ono response-'dull.' In the country busiuess is very slow. The interior dealers are selling little; tho farmers aro not paying up, and in numerous parts of the country we hear of failures. Merchants in arrears and unable to pay are making assignments and in Borne instances-fraudulent transfers of proporty have been made." On which the Times remarks : "What more ominous state of things could wo havo? Tho farmors not settling their store accounts, tho store? keepers selling little and paying something near to nothing, are the incipient symptoms of the trickery and fraud which in the Wost presage the coming of tight times. Surely these aro circumstances not favorable to the future of tho Eastern mer? chants who now open Western credits." Of the South it observes : "Tho general condi? tion ot affairs there precludes the possibility of re? mittances for goods supplied from tho North, or tho growth of a demand for further Buppliea. Wes ward and Southward everything points to tho necessity of more than common prudence on the part of Eastern merchants and manufacturers. The times are dull here undoubtedly. The flush usually incident to the season has not shown itself this year. Manufacturers discover that, tho de? mand on which thoy calculated hos suddenly sub Bided, and that tho enormous profits to which they have become accustomed will not be realized dur? ing the passing period. Tho presence in our cities of a large amount of unemployed, or only partially employed labor, must tell upon goner?l business as certainly as it reveals stagnation in certain branches of industry. Turn which way you will, then, facts exist which establish the paramount importance of avoiding risky ventures, and -refusing absolutely to extend tho credit system." The New York Journal of Commorce remarles : "The market is less reassured than waa expected, and advices from tho interior aro less favorable than anticipated. Tho West has not sold its pro? ducts as largely as usual, or at as satisfactory prices, and country merchants aro making very poor returns upon the credits granted them, while many who bought for cash havo a large portion of their stock on hand unsold." After a further survey of the field that paper concludes thus : "It was perfectly natural for Western farmers and dealers to look for tuen prices for their pro? duce as would offset, in some measure, the enor? mous advance in all othor goods. They wero told that tho protective tariff would give them such an equivalent, and some of them believed it. In the end tb ey must be tm dc ce i ved; and wo shall not bo surprised if this season should bring them to that bitter experience." Pias the Ninth at Christmas-Address to the Sacred College. . At tho reception of tho cardinals and pontifical authorities at tho Vatican on Christmas clay, Pius ?X improvised an energetic reply to an address of devotedncss read to him. First of all ho thanked tho cardinals for their congratulations aud the constant attachment which they had shown for him personal!v. Ho said that in tho timos in which ho found himself, ho derived a powerful en? couragement from seeing himself surrounded by the affection and counsels of the Sacred College. Replying to tho observations of Cardinal Patrizi, who had been spokesman, he added that ho was tranquil, because he know that in tho present strugglo ho defended the cause of God and of the Church, and thoroforo ho robed on tho assistance of the Lord. Ho said, with tho prophetic David, "Tho Lord is my light, the protector of my life; whom shall I f?ar?" His Holiness afterwards said that it was necessary to bo prepared for all to endure avery persecution. Ho also observed that a few days before he had received letters from the Corea relative to the deaths which several missionaries have suffered in that country. Only two of them were successful in escaping from the ferocity of their persecutors, and it was they who forwarded to Rome tho narrative of tho mar? tyrdom of their colleagues. The Pope expressod the opinion that it was necessary to bo ready to suffer everything lor the Church, which now-a-days is persecuted in Europe by deceptions, seductions, lying promises, and by unjust demands aud exac? tions. Certain persons, by Ike aid of rare diplo* mafic skill, and putting forward groat assurances to induce tho Holy Soo to make concessions. These people act as Uie Devil did when he templed Christ on the momUain, showing him all the king? doms of the world, and saying bc would give him them if he would foll down and worship him. AB lor us, said his Holiness, wo Khali not allow our? selves to be soduced by such proceedings. Others come with tho olivo branch of peace, but requiro that their will should be submitted to. Wolli we shall always continue to reject false offers, and repel everything that is contrary to tho principles of justice, to the good of tho Church, and tho dig? nity of tho Holy See. We desire peace, but a peace that should not be offensivo to the honor ot God and of His religion. Such is a summary of thc allocution doh vcr ed with great vivacity by the Holy Father. SAFEGUARD FOB STREET RAILROAD CARS.-An im? portant invention for tho protection of lifo and limb against tho frequent accidents that occur from street railroad cars, waa tested iu Philadel? phia on Friday. With a view ol demonstrating the entire security which tho "safeguard" affords, the inventor, Mr. Thomas Gillen, at different Slaces and at different times, threw himself im cil? iately under thc forward whoel of tho car pro? tected by lr guard, and was in every instance pushed aside from thc track without being hurt in anv way. His safeguard appeared to bu ontircly success? ful, but a curior.a circumstance connected with his experiments waa that a number of persons who witnessed them, Booing him throwing himself mi dcr the wheels of a moving car, thought he was crazy and trying to commit suicide. Sonic of them made very activo efforts to restrain him. but were much astonished on both occasions to seo him thrown out from under tho wheels unharmed. The device is very simple, consisting-of a plate of metal called a "shoe," auothcr called a "shield," an iron lever rod, and a spiral Bpriug; tho whole of which, it is said, will coBt but three dollars for each wheel it is applied to. The contrivance is aelf-adjueting, and while it will throw off tho track a human be? ing, or an animal, or any movablo thing, it will fass over any fixed obstruction, such as ahreakiri he rail or an unevenly laid joiut. It is well wor? thy tho attention of the Passenger Railway Com? panies of ihia city and others in the State. Trenton (N. J.) Gazette. THE CRYSTAL PALACE FIRE IN LONDON.-London, journals received yesterday bring full particulars of tho disastrous fire at tho Crystal Palace in that city on the 30th ultimo, which was only briefly announced by Cable dispatch. Tho damage is estimated at a million dollars, Thc tropical de? partment was dostroyod, including the Indian, Egyptian Alliambra, Assyrian and Art Courts, with nearly all their contenta. Tho progresa of the fiamos waa arrested by tearing up ?loora and de? molishing the wood work. So great was thc body of flame when thc north part of tho roof fell in that but for tho fortunato direction of the wind nothing could have been saved. Few of the birds and animals were rescued. A groat many rare and precious works o? art were destroyed. [Providence Journal. The little piccaninnies of Athens, Ga., say that :ho two Yankee school-marms of that placo havo invented a whipping machino which holds a cow lude and "just whips itself." They declare they "wan't gwino back no moro nurthor." Georgia Items. STEAM FTEE ENGINE.-Yesterday afternoon, with several members of the Augusta Fire Department, including Chief Engineer Platt, and members of the City Council, we witnessed tho trial of the steam uro eugine Niagara, recently received at the United States Arsenal, near this city. The Niagara was made by L. Button, Waterford, New York, on the style and plan of the patent granted Button & Blake May, 1864. In workman? ship and finish tho Niagara is a beautiful mashene, and, with one exception, performed to the admira? tion of all who witnessed the trial. From somo cause it could not sustain a pressure of steam, or in other words, did not make steam as fast as it expended it. The day waB very unfavorable to properly test tho Niagara's qualities for throwing wafer, os the wind was blowing very strong; yet she (or it) threw a stream through a 1? inch nozzle a distance of 185 feet; had thore been no wind blowing, the diatanco would have been much greater. Tho day, as we have said, wad very unfavorable, and we think another trial should bo given tho machino before a verdict is rendered. [Augusta Constitutionalist. ACCIDENT.-On Tuesday afternoon last, about five o'clock, Captain Luke Christie wa? engaged in overseeing the hauling of some lumber across two scows, lying on tho opposite sido of the river. Taking a handspike for tho purpose of prying a log oft', ho slipped, and ono of his legs catching betweon two of thc logs, he was precipitated into the river. He swum ashore, when it was found that he had broken his ankle and sustained a com? pound fracture of the leg, making necessary the amputation of tho limb at the knee-joint, wh'ch was peiformed by DTB. Ring, Schley and Schurzer. A.t last accounts the Captain was doing well. Wo sincerely sympathize with Captain Christie, who is favorably known and highly respected in tho community, and trust that ne may speedily recover.- Savannah, Republican. A DELICATE HINT.-The Atlanta New Era gives tho following very delicate hint to the military stationed at that place. It says : "We are in? formed that a portion of tho mon comprising the garrison at tins point are becoming quite intole? rable, and if they aro not put under a more rigid liscipline, wo shall take the liberty of reporting tho fact to a gentleman in Washington, known as Seneral Grant, who bas the happy faculty of set? tling mattera of like character, without tho ordi? nary delay known in business circles." Tile Coming Senator from Pennsylvania. Tho New York World publisbos a letter written n August, 18G5, in which Mr. KELLY, Rep res ont a .ivo in Congress from Pennsylvania, skotcheB lometbing of tho life and public services of his ?rother Republican, SIMON CAMERON, whom the | Legislature bf that Stato ha? just pronounced a j letter man than STEVENS or FOBNEY, by olecting ? um to the Senate over both of thom, by six or i light to one. We give a few extracts: ! I was but a youth when I first heard tho namo of 1 iimon Cameron, and it was as tho perpetrator of a * jroat crime. Ho had becu made tho agent of the < iovernment to carry a large amount of money due . bern to tho Winnebago Indians, and had taken .elvan tage of their ignoranco and helplessness to f mrich himself. Those of you who had thon at ained manhood, though you may not, after the apse of so many yeard, revive the burning iudig- < lation with which you regarded the infamous windier of tbe poor Indians, will doubtless rc ncmbcr that, instead of paying thom tho specie , vhich tho Government confided to him for that ' impose, he retained it and gave them thc notos of ho Middletown Bank, of which ho wis an owner. - it their' encampment in tho remo ie wilderness, lieso notes were uttorly wort1: less. Tho Indian lould not use thora for any purpose there, nor car- ' y thom to Middletown for redemption. But what ras that to Simon Cameron? Was not their loss y us gain, and WOB he not BO much the richer hy j ivery note that failed to como homo for redomp ion, though they did suffer and starve? And 1 Lose of you who are not old enough to remember ill this now know why this bold bad man is somo imes spoken ot' by your seniors as the "Great Win tebftgo," and sometimes as "Old Kickapoo." For mofb than thirty years I havo watcbeel tho ortuous career of this man, and havo never seen nason to abandon my first impression of his char- { icter. * ****** ? need not recite the disgraceful facts attending tis several eauvassos for tho United States Sonate, .'heh' nauseous odor lingera in your nostrils to this tour. In tho first ho bought the votes of the bree Democratic merni: ors. and in tho last bid 20,000 for tho ono vote which would haye elected tim. * * ***** Tho evil report of his deeds pervades tho coun ry as a reproach to our State. Yes, unhappy for Pennsylvania and her groat interests, the buzzard vinged fume of Simon Cameton is national. By , nonth8 of abject solicitation and corrupt bargain- 1 ng, he procured'a moss of letters, certificates and ?ecantationa that imposed him upon President Lin ?oin as the representative man of the Keystone ' State. That was an evil hour for Pennsylvania. * ****** As I have said, ho bogged and bargained for the 1 nflnenco which induced Mr. Lincoln to invito him :o a Beat in his Cabinet. It was now fondly hoped >y those who had not souuded tho depth of Iiis lepravity, that, being old and rich, he would take idvantage of so distinguished an opportunity to | irove that he could bo honost, and could adrainiB ;cr trust without turning it to his profit, or hand- i ng tho fund over to his creatures. tc*-bo used on i ?drat account. How sadly these hopes wore dis- ' ?ppointed is attostod by the brevity of his term of 1 JUICO, and tho circus tances under which it clos ed. 1 lu less than ono year from the day on which Si- , mon Cameron was" installed as Secretory of War, Congress, though at that early day it had before it but partial evidence of his crimes, indignantly Irove him from that high office. Two-thirds of tho members of the lower House wore friends of the Administration, and would gladly have tus tained each member of it os they did its distin? guished head. * * * *? j3Ufc it became inevitable; for this rfd mao, notwithstanding his boasted and reputed millions, believes that ono of his namo is nevor rich enough until he has a little more, and, to save their party and tho country, tho friends of the Ad? ministration in the HOUBO had to proclaim his in? famy and denounce his crimes. Nor was the voto by which they did it a moagro one. His friends, md those who would most gladly havo averted this iisgracc from our Stato, could rally but about ono- * third of tho House against tho resolution of con .lf.nutation. Tho vote was about two to one against bim. Mining in Upper Georgia, Thero is groat activity in tho mining interest of aorthorn and northeastern Georgia. A writer in the Journal and Messenger refers to a number of quartz vein* oponed near Ackworth, on the State road. One is owned by Dr. Hamilton, another by Major Latimor, of Ai aeon. BeBides those aro tho "Paino," ' Grantham,'- "Baldwin," and "Cox" mines, all within four miles rf Ackworth. In Cherokee county several mines have been opened by O'Neil, Foster ? Co., and one by Brolly & Cow in, on which nuggets weighing two ounces have been found. Near this is tho "Boll mino," and uevoral others of promise, opened by Major Gold? smith. All those aro within seven miles of Ac worth. Tho AthonB Watchman refere to rich discoveries in White and Lumpkin counties. Dahlonega is crowded with miners, and every night presents very much the appearance of a mining town in Cal? ifornia. The Yaboola mining company aro pre? paring, with groat energy, to wash down a moun? tain close by, which promisos fino results. At Loudsvillo the Lewis gold mine is worked upon a large scale, under the direction of Cant. R. R. Asbury, a Eiining engineer, who has hau long experienco there and in California, and very exten? sivo machinery for crushing tho qnartz has boon brought out by Now York and Boston companies. Work is going'on at a number of other points. Ono of thc most extensivo is at Naucoochoo,- in Whito countv, on lands of Mr. Richardson aud others, leased by tho "Noucoocheo Hydraulic Company." They have brought water eight miles, and with heavy lioso pines aro washing down the high hill called Hanby Mountain at several points, with very encouraging" success. This is a Boston company, under Mri Dean, who carno to' "Whito from the mines in North Carolina several years before the war, and found tho largest nugget of puro gold over soon in the Stato, weighing 387 dwts., and auothor over half a pound. One minor put into Iiis hands nearly two pounds of gold which ho had procured at oiic washing ! Is there anything in California or Australia much richer than thia ?

Tho New York numismatics havo had a grave discussion to decide whether thia resulted from design or was au intentional piece of satire on tho part of tho artist. Thc Mexicans are lucky, however, to have even donkey-marked silver in circulation, for our coins have been so long out of sight tint the public generally havo forgotten whether eagles or donkeys have moat to do in or? namenting them.

Whoa General Butler was in Louisiana, "it was intimated to him from Washington that it would be destraillo to select two m ci nbers of Congress from New Orleans and the contiguous parishos;" to cany out this sug? gestion he sent General Weitzel with an army through the Lafourche country, to clear the coun? try of "rebels," and thus make it "loyal" enough to vote for a Republican Congressman.

The straining oyes, the ghastly look, the clammy brow, the clutched hands, tho wild, agonizing gaze of the wrecked and rained soul, aro evidences of hopeless misery aud forerunners of that "deathless death," whose burning thirst shall know no quenching. But to the aged saint, who can say to the Recording Angel, "I pray thee then Write me aa one Who loved his fallow-men," and who, tortured with pain and excruciating agony, Death's summons are but the portalB through which to pass into an endless glory-thus died, without a groan or sich, and amid relatives weeping around his couch, our beloved Grandfather. A peaceful smile upon his nice, a tear of ecstatic joy upon his furrowed cheek, a look breathing blessings upon all mankind, and the last struggle Is over, the fight ls fought, the last victory over life's temptations gained; and with the frosts and mows of many winters settled upon that dear old head, he a consigned to that rest whero the wicked cease from troubling, and where suffering cannot reach. "May our last end bo like his." * * * 83* The Relatives, Friends and Acquit In tan COR of Mr. and Mrs. D. LILIENTHAX, of Mr. F. OSTEB HOLTZ, ot Mr. and Mrs. D. OSTEBHOLTZ, of Mr. and Mrs. C.
