4THE railroads in order to scalp

the scalpers, have bit upon a plan ofspecial rates to conventions and otherbodies during the coming season whichwill, probably, in a great measureblock their busineas in its most profit-able season. The plan is the requir-ing of full fare from delegations goingto the conventions, ami one-quarterfare on their return, on the prcaenta-tion of attostcd certificate at the Com-panies' offices.

LAST week excitement ran high infinancial circles in New York, by thefailure of the Marine National Rank.This created a distrust that soonbrought its fruits, and the firtn of

A Ward, bankers, were forcedto suspend, and have since assigned.Gen. Grant is the head of the firm,and is greatly worried over the affair,

jSt business manager. The shortage ofaccounts, it is said, will reach

Morrison flatly ami squarley refusedto allow amendments to be mado en
