Don't Exaggerate. .mere is always a disposition to exag Ererate misfortune, and nona mora nnl than those of a business character. For instance, wnen a nra occurs ana a roer- chant is burned out, he is either ruined or had such insurance as to justify the conclusion that the company carrying the risk is about "done for." If a storm passej over the country during the growing season of the crops, the farm ers are all ruined. Or if a gale is re- norted at sna all who hava ahinn nut nra sunnosed at onca to hava lost them.' If r I a bank fails, everybody for mites around are supposed and sometimes reported, to be bankrupt. - All such exaggerates are injurious to the body politic. It Injures credit, which is the base of all business transac tions; impairs confidence between man and man and entails through exaggera tion a damage quite equal to the real. ba it ever so great, for the greater the real damage, the greater, will be the exaggeration. . . . ; We are led to these reflections by the reports circulating through the papers in regard to the bank failure in Nor- folk, V. The stereotype phrase, "It will fall heavily on Eastern North Caro- Una," is universally heralded through the country, and everybody doing busi ness in that portion of the State desig nated on the map as Eastern North Caro lina is suspected of being one of those upon whom the loss fell so heavily, and just to that extent he is injured although he may not have known that such a bank was in existence. Tho amount of money deposited in that bank by citizens of the counties in that section of our State bordering on Virginia and inti mately connected with Norfolk by rail roads, canals, etc and does must only money on deposit and money commodity generally pretty scarce in Eastern North Carolina and generally held by men of wealth, and men of wealth are, unfortunately for us. not in a majority. Ihere are a fe w poor men wno, . to save up something, ao ae- Dosit their funds in banks, but thev are h -, m j ioa ,- ny no means numerous, and their loss is n011e the less severe because they are v r a - uiviiua aa uuidi w u a cauu bii oil luon in m.. 1 1 , ww, xub uui& oi iubbi- u uuu iuuuro Bo far as depositors are concerned, falls upon men of means who, while they suffer from it, their suffering is chiefly mental and does not attain to the physi- cal by cutting off a reasonable supply of food and raiment. ; Therefore an exag- geration of these losses makes the bur- den fall UDon man v who are not in anv way directly connected with banks or bankers by the simple process of reason- ing that because they were in the vicin- ity of those who have lost largely they muBt necessarily have also suffered.
