Tho Company does not protond that the mouoy was not justly duo, or that, striotly spoaling, it ought In any ovent to have boon withbeld, but o viisls seomed at hand, and many othor cousidorations dopended on that singlo pay-day which do not enter {uto ordinary caloulntions, THE AMOUNT WITHDRAWN FROM THE TREASURY, for monthly pay, is bolwoen 500,000 and §600,~ 000, and oa the gronter part of tho money goos. out of Chicago, the sonding but of the pay-car on tho usunl day might have Iuvolved tho Com- pany fu very sorious dififoulty. Tho ovent proved tho wisdom of delny, Only o day or two after pny-day the crash camo, and tho supply of eurroncy ovorywhero consed, By tho delay of o fow days the Company, the public, the employas thomeelves, woro eaved great inconvenionco ; the trossury wns ablo to make disbursomonts in surroucy, and keop tho volumo of trade pouring through ita torritory, and to receive thie cheoks of our business men, instead of throwing thom out and IuslsuuF on currency, a8 many othor lurge eatablishmonts havo dono, Thus, tommorce was not chiecked §_the flow of currenoy through all the channols affected by the roads wans not intorfered with ; employment continued lo be given to tho men, and timo was obtained tor ealmly roviowing tho situationand socuring prosent aud future pay-rolls. IT WAS 500N DEGIDED that, undor the now condition of affalrs, the Oompauy could not reusonably hopo to continue tho omployment of so manymen, and thata large numbor must bo paid off ; but further Invostigation eatisfied the manngement that this uummnr{\proguudmg might bo obviated by ro- ducing tha timo and pay from7 to 8 por cent, accordiug to the naturoof the work. If tho men awsented quictly to this, it would obviate the nnlgaaslt_\' of parting with any of thom, +,, Lhursday was tho duy choson for aunouncing Yhis reduction, and arrangemonts woro mado to start tho pay-car the following doy, s soon na thoy hiad deetdad whether to refutio or accopt. " TUE RESULT WAH thet part of the mon omployed on one section of tho rond bogan to grumblo, and finaily loft off work, Thoso mon yestorday recoived ‘their pay aud dischorgo togother, and tho pay-car went its ususl rounds. Nearlyall of the discharged mon are alrendy anxious to get back, claiming that thoy woro misied ; that they had not mado Allowance for tho fact that ihe Uom[mny hiad beon husbanding its currency for their own I(l;)od, in common with the genoral public ; and nt ‘thoy had beon irritaed into their action by tho reprosontations of n fow unquict spirits that thoy wore not going to got any moro monoy, and ntories of that sork, A VISIT TO THE SHOPS ronflrmed thoso roprosontations, as far as tho Oompany’s condugt toward the men i8 in_gues- tion. There was hardly any chauge to be no- Liced, ovorybody being busy and cheerful, and ‘worle golng on ‘with &s much briskness as is genorally the case on pay-dny ; and thore sesmod no fear of anything unplénsant occurring, un- loss, ns n uai;mnn jromarked, “some of tho b'hoys take a littlo drop too mueh, when thoy find tho money in their pockots,” CHECKS IECLIVED, Much inconveuionce Las beou caused by the ailway compauies refusing to accopt other than turrency in paymont of freight-bills, So general and uotlceablo bns tho cmbarrassmont become s to crente tho impression hat all the compa~ nies pursuo this course, We are glad to bo able So inatauce one notable oxcoption. The Chicago % Northwostern Railway, throughout the crisis, bes unhesitalingly received checks upon auy or a1 the eolvent city banks; and, probably, the bast comment upon Lheir action is, the assurance that it has not thus far lost one cent upon any check takon. A natural vesult of this liboral souc,v has boen, that the Comnpnny's bueiness, espito tho {inaucial depression, lus continued largely in excess of the corresponding poriod of lagt yonr, NO CUANGE. Thore was but little chango in the situntion of affairs at the railrond oflices in the city yestor- dsy. While the Westorn_ lines are slowly ana ateadily (y:pro\'lng, the Eastern lines roport a slight falling off of thoir frolght business. This must bo attributed to the fact that the Eastern ronda have boen doing a large business up to the proaent time, becausc thoro was n large quantity of grain in this city, which was shipped Enst in pite of the panic. "The Western linies were the Brat suflorers, aud consequantly it is ouly natu- tal that thoy sha!l bo tho firat ones to rocover trom the oftects of tho crisis. MR, . M. GRAY, the General Froight Agent of the Michigan Southorn Railroad, stated to a roporter that their business was lighter yestorday than at any pre- vious time sitice the commoncement of the panic. Whila they lad beon short of cars all along, yestorday they hnd forty or fifty to sparo, Mr. Gray says ho expeeted this, as panies would always affoct Wostern lines 3ooner than the Eastern lines, M0, LOUIS VIELE, of the Chicago & Rock Island, roported business on their rond rapidly pickii\; up, and unloss something should happen to renowthe Enuln titoy would soon be again _in thel usual {amaporoua condition. Ho Loped that his orisis had taught o lesson to the Gravgors, who had done very much toward bringing sbout thisstate of affairs, Farmershad no better frionds thun the railroads, and while it was truo that tho railroadn, ospociaily the Western links, woro in o great measure depond- ent upon the farmers, tho farmors were depeud- Ing upou tho railroads in the same ratio, 3. 0. M'MULLEN, of tho Chicago, Alton & 8t. Lonis Road, hoped that tho worst of trouble had been passed, and that after this thoy would got along swimming- ly. Their business has been improving rapidly during the last three days, and they had put on sgoin several of tho extra froight trains that bad been taken off, and ro-ougaged mnny of tho discharged mon. Thoy bad stol)pnd nono of their new improvements, and all their contemplated now additions to their road were carried forward with the same energy nud haste a8 before the panic. They yesterday closed their Inst contract for the now double track be- tween Summit ond Dlonmix:{;tou, and the work would be completed in a fow days, E, It WADSWORTIL, of the Chiengo, Burlington & Quinoy, reported their road in a botter condition, They have not dischiarged any mon, and they don't ‘intend to, Ho wns in hopos that in o fow days they would bove fully as much to do as they had before the prosent trouble.

'I'heso have boen drawn to this locality by tho oxistence in tho vicinity of two varioly shows, both of which hava nfforded rich flolds for tho oporations of plolpockels, foot-pads, and mon of that typo.

Accordingly {cutnrdny aftornoon tho Buperintondent of Polico and Capt, Lull held o consultation in roferenco to the matter, and it was rosolved that a raid should bo made upon Emmott’s Varioty rooms and c?nrk'a Varioty Bhow, both of which oro located in tho vicinity nbovo reforred to.
