WIL3IINTON, N. C. Saturday September 20th, 1873. Wk return our thanks to our friends for their many kind words of encour agement received the past month, and for so many new subscribers. We axe always happy to receive either. The Post is steadily growing, and if it con tinues increasing in patronage in the same ratio for the next sixty days as it lias in the past sixty days, we expect to enlarge it. We shall not do this, how ever, merely to make a show, but to ac commodate our increasing business. Until a change is absolutely needed, it will not be made. The people arc ac customed to sec our little Evening Dai ly come to them every afternoon, and we hope it comes a welcome guest. It certainly goes out from the press, v.ith kindly feelings to all, even to those who read it without paying for it. On this point we differ from many of our breth ren of the press. Although we of course prefer to sec all jmen who read the paper subscribe for it, yet if they feci they cannot afford to pay for it, we are always glad to have them read it. They will thus find much that is beneficial to them, and may gain information by which they can increase their worldly store, and be, in time, able to pay for .their paper. Who knows?. Jay Cooke & Co. The suspension of this firm has caus ed a thrill of excitement through the money market of the world, because of the high character of the gentlemen composing the same, and the immense business transacted. When we saw the announcement of papers remote from the financial centres, that the failure was caused by gold speculations, we were convinced the statement was erro neous, but preferred to wait for official intelligence. We print the National Republican 'if remarks on the failure, be lieving them to be nearer correct than any wc have seen. It will be seen that the attempt of the firm to carry the .Northern Pacific has been their ruin. They are not the first banking house ruined by other railroad speculations. The Republican, editorially, says : The failure was, it seems, caused by immense transac tions in the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, and in other companies con nected with it. Notwithstanding the immense gianto and concessions it ob tained from the (iovernment, the enter- nnsc has been lrom the beginning a 1 v. failure. Its bonds have never obtained even a foothold in the money market; but the firm, with its immense resources and a justifiable pride in its own strength and nowcr. determined to carrv it to success. The result is told in our dis patches this morning. The house has failed, and its failure is a very great misfortune. At the present writing it is not possible to estimate the losses of the firm : but there is reason to believe that they arc not so large as is popular ly believed. Wall street is the best and surest commercial index of the feeling of the moneyed classes, and, as will be seen by our reports from New York, there has been no substantial variation in the quotations of the leading stocks. The fluctuation in gold, not withstand ing the efforts to "bull" the market, was comparatively trifling not more than the average fluctuation almost ev ery day in the week for years past.- Scvcral of the fancy stocks are " off' but the decline is attributable to causes entirely outside of the suspension. All these facts go to show that while the failure created a temporary panic in New York and in other cities among the speculative classes, it did not touch the solid business and commercial com munity ; that there is no reason what ever why public confidence should be shaken in the stability of our bauking institutions. lhc wild rumors of the street prove, when investigated, to be without the least foundation in fact. If the losses arc no larger than eight or ten millions of dollars and there is no reason to suppose that they arc it is compara- 4? 1 ' A It ? A A -v iiveiy a inning matter, uniy a year ago wc saw eighty millions of dollars swept away in a single night in the Boston fire, bo far as the business of the country is concerned it had no per ceptible influence. The moral effect of the failure is the worst aspect of it. It scans strange that a house so old, so well established, so atroag in all its re lations, should suspend ; but when the immense obligations which it undertook to carry arc taken into consideration, it pan hardly bo a mutter of urpric. During the last few years there has been entirely too much speculation, es pecially. on the part of some! of ur leading bankers. Jay Cooke & Co. un fortunately yielded to the temptation, and they have been swept away in the current. They were so strong and so confident that they undertook of them selves and by themselves to carry out the most gigantic enterprises, enter prises which would tax the strength of a Government even as strong as our own. But in their fall it is to their honor that they alone are the sufferers. The Northern Pacific disaster does net involve any material, loss to anybody excepting to themselves, i Their sus pension is one for which they need not blush. The latest information on the subject is to the effect that the pending trouble is only temporary, and that the firm will resume business in a few days an expectation which it is to be hoped will be realized. Jay Cooke & Co. History of the firm Foundation of the Different Hou ses. The firm of Jay Cooke & Co. consists of Jay Cooke, Henry D. Cooke, W. G. Moorehead, H. C. Fahnestock, Pitt Cooke and J. H. Garland. There are four banking houses under he control of the firm the present bank, which was established at Philadelphia in 1858 by Jay Cooke and AV. G. Moore- head; tne Washington orancn, wmcn was founded in 1862: the New York branch, organized in 1S66, and the Lon don house, established in 1871, under the immediate supervision oi Hon. Hugh McCulloch. formerly Secretary of the Treasury, and Col. J. II. Puleston. 7 Pitt, Jay and Henry D. Cooke are the sons of the late Hon. Eleutheros Cooke who represented the Sandusky or Huron district in the House of Representative in 1833 '34. Pitt Uooke. the oldest brother, was engaged in commercial business in San dusky, and subsequently was connected witn tne rnnaueipnia DanKing uouse, as it agent lor the location or land war rants in the West, in which the firm were largre dealers. He afterwards be came connected wTith the New York house, of which he is still a member. Jay Cooke, the senior partner oi the firm, left Sandusky in 1840, when about eighteen years of aire, and entered as a clerk in the broker's office of E. W. Clark & Co., of Philadelphia, of 'which he afterwards became a member, and retired therefrom with capital of about $250,000, then considered quite a large fortune. Henry D. Cooke was educated at the college in Meadville, Pa., and in 1845 went with his brother-in-law, W. G. Moorehead, who, was appointed consul to Valparaiso, Chili, speculating Largely in flour for the San Francisco market in 1849. and subsequent years.: While in San Francisco, and largely engaged in business, he was a heavy depositor with Palmer, Cook & Co., bankers, and lost all his accumulated wealth by their failure. In 1853 he edited and publish ed the Sandusky Register, and in 1858 he went to Columbus and purchased a controlling interest in the Ohio Male Journal, conducting both papers with marked ability until the election of Mr. Chase to the Senate of the United States. In 1861 he came to Washington with Mr. Chase, and when that distin guished statesman was appointed" Sec retary of the Treasury ho designated the firm of Jay Cooke & Co. to place the seven -thirty bonds--a patriotic task which was successfully fulfilled by Hen ry D. Cooke, as agent of the firm, which was largely instrumental in maintaining the credit of the country-in its darkest and most trying days. Probably no banking firm in the Uni ted States was better known or more confided in, both at home and abroad, than that of Jay Cooke & Co. Their credit, their honor and integrity were never impaired or impeached ; land hence the present suspension, although it is hoped and believed to be only tem porary, will startle the wholo country and fijl all hearts with regret.

The Raleigh Sentinel has the folio wil?S: It appears that of 317 Senators and Rep resentatives only about 87 are graduates of Colleges. As to States, savs the Nation " the most notable is North Caro lina, for six of her "nine members arc college men, which is the highest pro-j portion to be found in Congress), and all of them are graduates of her State University. New York has nine out of thirty-three: Pennsylvania, six out of twenty-six; Ohio five out of twenty-one, New England is not much better having less than half; and tcnStates, extending in age from Maryland and Delaware to Texas and Nevada, have not a single graduate. As between the North and South and the East and West, not much can be said, for North Carolina and Ne braska arc the only States which come up to the proportion of two-thirds."
