We extract from its description: What is our case, and the pressure upon us! Inthe central parte—the Blue Grass region and the Green River ecountry—the portions uf tle State, deplorable. Our system of labor is ; demoralized ; no family eknow when they ris¢ inthe morning whether they have.a-servant'to prepare breakfast for not.

The Journal states that is in the receipt @f numerous letters asking if something --gannet-he done-ia a-sherter way-than the tequired to amend the Constitution that.if_that is the only remes) must die before it cies effect. To meet the case, it proposes immediate compensated emancipation by the Legislature. The. Constitution forbids ‘the 40 re to emancipate without compenn, not with compensation. When it is remembered that the Journal’ ring aaa been a fierce opponent of theemancipation pelicy of the administration, and has clung" to slavery as the only interest to be preserved whatever else was swallowed up in the rebeflion—that it has been the organ have great significance, ‘and show the vast revolution that has taken place in the bor~. der States.

We are able tosay, for the satisfaction of all’ interested in this question, that in July last the agent of a number of German bankers did make a formal offer to Mr. Fessenden, Secretary ofthe Treasury, of a loan of one. thousand million of dollars. pe “We breve veason to believe that this offer . is still open, and we know that it caused a rise in the price of United States bonds in tlie German markets, when it became known who were the persons that made it. On the 29th of July, 1864, United Statés six per cents: were selling at 34 per -eent. in Hamburg’; on the 28th of August, ywhen the circumstances of the offer first became known upon the Exchange there, United States. six per cent. 1881-2 bonds’ “were” selling at 35 per-cent.

As mining affairs are now managed, it is almost impossible for a to-obtain any knowledge of the actual condition of the mines in which they are interested;-or to learn how or for what the assessments they pay-are expended, or to obtain any definite knowledge of their own business. A lawlike that recommended would give stockholders all facilities necessary for understanding the actual condition of the companies in which they might be interested, and enable them to apply remedies in case of oa GENi-Scorr’s PRopenty Resrecrep chanced to be temporarily in the City Bank . . of New York, for safe keeping, ‘when two thieves, in a night’s work, took from that institution $260,000.. The medal was lying-ina trunk of gold. All the coin was stolen, but the medal, though taken out of its case (marked with the owner's name) to gratify curiosity, was left. A few years later, when the robbers had served out their sentences in the State Prison, or been pardoned by the executive, Scott was, in a steamer on the Hudson, robbed of his purse by pickpockets who did not know him. The principal of the bank robbery hearing of the loss ($140), destirred himself among the fratérnity; threatened to cause the whole body to bé sent to the State Prison if the money was not returned, and added: “‘When@n the City Bank I saw the medal, but was not such a villain astorob a gallant soldier.” Ina day or two the money was . returned by Hays, the high constable, with that repert, received from a third party. To show that he did not himself pocket the . money, Hays was requited to produce Scott's written receipt for its return—which: was given, i en DUEL.—We learn that while H. C. Ben. nett, of the Union, was in this city yester‘day afternoon, John R. Ridge, of the National, went, to his offige ‘to assault him. _ Not finding Bennett-there he left and drew his pistol and told Bennett to do the same. Bennett refused to fight him on the street but told -him he would meet him: whereupon a challenge was passed and accepted. This-is all wé could learn up to the hour of our going to press. -EXAMINATION.—Joseph Dodge, Robert Dodge and another man whose namewe did not learn, willhave their examination to-day, doting Mark Hammock, at.
