Mayne in this cijy and on the Platte Val- ley stock farm is fresh in the memo every reader of i B, It was promised by Mr, Mayne at the time of the above named seizure that he would have his day in court and would show up Mr. Barker, Mr Corbett, and ‘the actions of the Bank of Comu officials to the public in ‘& that would not only surprise the public, but the officials themselves, Mr. Mayne, through his attor- had his day at high noon in the United s court yosterday, the title of the case being Clifton azainst the Bank of Commerc ) e and othel The for o of the chattel mortea Mayne's stock was to sati a note for £20,000. Mr, Mayne claimed that the note 18 obtained by fraud and that he never re. od the amount of money the note was n for, In his potition of the above suit he the following account and history of the note For somo time before the 6th of Novemb Mayne had been borrowing money from Cor- bett, which was furnished him by the Bank of Commerce, and for which he received interest at the rate of 10 por cent a month. At the above named date Mayire owed bott $5,000, a8 he ciaims, although Cor bett's made the amount read and was socured by & mortgaze on the Platte Valloy ranch and the stock recently seived by Corbett When this note became due Mayne's oft which had been in the Barker building and nad boen Lurned out, was in such shape that the pavers could not be gotten and Corbett, as Mayne claims in his petiti at the request of Barker and Johnson, was avout to sell the property. Johnson came to the rescue and offered Mayae £5,000 to extend the time on the note, and made out new notes for the 11,000 amounting to 30,000, payable in one, two, three, four and five months, In addition to tho $30,000 notes, under threats of the recording of the bill of sale, Mayne also gave Johnson a uote for 85,0)). Mayne further sets forth that between the dates of December, 1856, and July 13, 1857, he paid Corbett $20,000 on the above § and that it was then transferred to Johuson, who claimed that there was $15,000 yet due on it. The petition further claims that Johnson lod the orator to further balieve that unless the noto was paid atonce the bill of sale on the stock would be filed for record; that Johnson said_that Barker would advance him (Mayne) $35,000 on his note for one year for $15,000 on all the Platte and stock. This was to satisfy the 815,000 note held by Corbett, the 5,000 by Johnson and a 3,000 claim belonging to the bank. This e was to not be filed for record. The petition also states that the defendants compelled him through threats of arrest for disposing of mortgaged property to his, note secured by mortgages and chattels for £55,000, and that all he (Mavne) received for these was %7, ‘The deals between the men are related at farther length in the bill and the recent sale of the stock on the ranch.

Kuhloy om various parts of the country reports are arriving of exten- sive undations which are taking place in Germany and spreading destruction not only to crops, but to houses, facto- ries and mills.

Over-competition mong manufacturers has led to reduction of ges: over-population among the peo- ple themselves has thrown so supply of labor on the market—; far exceeding the demand cordance with the invarviable laws of natural cconomy labor has become ex- rdingly cheap. In some of the gre industrinl districts of this country, such as Chemnitz and othe the histor, manufacture during the pust year has been nothing but aseries of “more or less unfortunate crises. According to the report of the factory inspectors, the employment of juvenile workers to the detriment of older operatives who have families to suppory, and therefore re- quire higher w has incrensed ev n Saxony, the wea trict in Germany gree. The tendenc to produce—and o bring down the t of production. To attain this object the il au- thorities themselves dm some manufacturers, doubtless those whoae position is not yet vory firmly es- tablished, and who must sell” cheaply or not at all, are not quite scrupulous in the means they employ. Tt is for this reason that the factory inspectors for the kingdom of Saxony nctually suggest that child labor in the facto should be forbidden altogether, and that the hours during which youths between the age of fourteen to sixteen may be legally employed in factory work should be limited to six. Duringthe past year an enormous increase has tuken place 1n the employment of quite young boys, who receive but a trifling wage and who frequently labor ten hours out of the twenty-four. Such o system loads to a complete reversion of the modern famil, conditions, as the Saxon inspectors ver) izhtly point out.

It isto be hoped that in view of the genuine distress which will be entailed upona portion of the working population of Germany that our manufacturers and employers will show themselves ready, as the ever have been hitherto, to act in a hy mane and charitable manner toward their less fortunate and dependent brethern, and that the feverof compet tion which is so prominent a sign of the present times will not be allowed to in- terfere unduly with the practical ex- pression of those feelings - Fault of the Foundry.
