jBut there are two classes of debts i-p-i maining which are exceedingly difficult ito arrive at. These are dehW hpt-n individuals, and debts on bond and ! mortgage, tut we still hav K,vm data. w e have fust the bank discouuts, and i next, in some States, the returns of mo ney at mtersst. These two will include nine tenths ol the whole induiduat debt. t)Ut we tiui"t premise that nearlv th I whole mercantile debt above mentioned J u.ui ue laKou out o. the bank discounts, b lore we pet at the private loans. For It IS Lie oanKs that sunn v nmrl-nto . - with the means of srivinsr credit. Thw. total of bank discount is about four bun. dred and tittv millions. From ihU w deduct three hundred millions, the mercantile debts of imnorters. and the do. mestie debt of the retailers. There re mains one hundred and fifty millions, as me private uebts of individuals to banks. Of money at interest and book accounts, there is in the State of Ohio. ;vbout eight per cent, of the whole amount of prop-' erty. That is. however, onlv a balance alter deducting' the debts, of the individual ::nn h s credits. It. however, we suppose in the whole United Sutes to be v'-ducu-d the private debts of individuals for :n -.chaiidise, which equals the amount of retailers credits, (one hundred and tifty millions.) and the residue of bank vi scounts of merchants. (three huntired millions.) then the total amount of individual accounts, and money. at interc. (including bonds and mortgage,) wiii be tint sum and eight per cent, on the property of the United Stntes added. The above sum (fordeo'uetion) is (our hun.

debt o'.i exists between men all over the country, and exists by the process of buyiog and scllinp. e have now approximated the agpresrate ot dtbts existing in various forms in the nation, and among ih? States, ds individuals of this country. It will be entllatthe private, individual debts among the pe p.!e are, at las'., th pre at m-iss of the whole. This will not annear strange at all to anv one w ho casts his eye aiouml society and observes the continual transfer o! prorc-vtv, most of whic :i is truiisterre a lit. itlnn the lust year, for exauiple, immense bo-o-es of real estate have been transferred, and three fourths ot t le whole purchase il'0:iey lies on credit. S also a bale of "r.v goods has been transferred on credit til! it has created a debt four times its value. It is ;!..s extension of private and coxaiercia' 01. dit which so immensely cxtt nds the dclit ol tiie country. Letus ti -;w aggregate these debts, and see m v. hat propo tion they exist. The following is a summary ot debts.

The residue, making nearly twelve hundred millions, is held anions the citizens of the country. It is obvi ous. lrom tins state ot tact, that the solvency of the country depends on the solvency ot merchants and individuals. It is private credit which at la?t sustains the whole tabric. The 250,000.000 of railroad bonds will be easi'y paid, and double as much more, ifthe individuals who have subscribed railroad stocks can make good their subscriptions in cash. It is undoubtedly true, however, that a great deal ofraifrot.d stock has been subscribed on the idea that money can be bo: row eJ, lands sold, and property realized at advanced prices. A rising market, increased supplies of gold, and a prudent conduct of business, will enable stockholders to pay their subscriptions; but it is evident that in the extension of credits nov apparent, there must be is1 prudence in the conduct of busi,;ess."

MvimnRrpatfrlhin? than Dying. BV REV. BK. HUMPHREY. We often hear the rpmark. "It U a

great thing to die'' and so it is. Death is the kino; of terrors. Wp instinrtivolf shrink back from the last mortal struo--?Ie but thousands suffer vastly more from the dread of death, than lrom the pains of dissolution, incomparably more, dur protracted mortal sickness, than in the last hour or dav that closes Sti" t is great thing; to die. Death separates us from all that we hold dear in the present world. It closes our eyes forever upon all earthly scenes. It i'rrests the current, and se'als up the fountain of life changing the once loved form into a cold marble statue; bears it away in solemn procession to the grave; shutting it up in that dark and narrow house, and ushering: the soul into a new and untried state of being All V"s 't a preat thin? to die it is j"tly so regarded and spoken of every- I whcr?Rjt now fev seriously consider how KreaU thing it is to live. And vet, in! Ule n,osl important point of view, it is a" ,nr'itely greater thing ta live than to is striking to notice how little stross the Scriptures lay upon the manncr in which men die. In this they n,a'0 no such distinction between the ""'ghteous and the wicked, as to show the heaven-wide difference between their c,'a""! - ters and final destiny. If the wicked are sometimes cut off bv a violent death, so ,-re the righteous. If the j wickcJ perish by shipwreck, or are mown down by the cholera, or die by I famine, the righteous perish with them, j It the righteous olten meet the last ene- j mv with calmness, and go down into the j valley of the shadow of death, fearing! no evil, so do sometimes the wicked. j Xay, how do the children of God some- j times tremble as death approaches, in j view of their great unworthiness, while! tae children of this world, strangers to "the plague of their own hearts,-' die with very little apparent concern lor the future. "How dieth the wise man!" "As the fool dieth." "All things come ahketoall. There is one event to the! righteous and the wicked. This is an ' evil amongali things that are done under the sun." "Wherelore. iniuires J..b. i da the wicked live, become old yea, are' mighty in power! They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their chil dren dance. They t-pend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave." So the P salmist. "I was envious of the tool.sii, when I saw the pros perity 01 tne wicked, l'or there are no ?arulf in their death, but their strength is firm. It is not the manner in which men die, that indicates their character in 'he tight of Go L and fixes th-Mr eternal destiny, but the manner in which they live. Vothing depends upon the mere eventof dying. It is impossible, in this respect, to discern between the righeous and the wicked, between loin that serveth God and him that st rveth him not. But to live, to live so as to be prepared to die and give up an account of our stewardship, is the great thing. We shall not be inquired of in the day of judgment, How did you feel when you was dying! How much pain did you suffer in passing throuurh the dark valley! What liht I -hone upon your path, or what darkness rested upon it! None of these. Buti how did you live What use did you ; make of your talents, your time, your! property, your prosperity, your influence? ; How did you discharge all the social and relative duties of lite! How many of: the widows and fatherless did you visit ; in their afflictions! What did you do for me! I was hungry, and did you feed1 me! Thirsty, and did you give me drink! j Xaked, and did ye clothe me! Sick,; and in prison, and did you minister untoj me! You knew the world was perishing for want ofthe gospel the bread of life; and what did you do to fulfil my last; command! Did you go, yourself, with the lamp of salvation, into the dark pla-j ces of the earth, or did you assist others ; to go, aceording to the ability which I gave you! "Give an account of thy ; stewardship." j You was once an impenitent sinner. ; You lived "without God and without hope in the world." This was your state by nature. You was a child of wrath, justly condemned, and I offered vour pardon, on the conditions of repentance ' . ji-i . , , ' . and faith and did you accept of the offer! lou lived so many years in the enjoymentof privileges, and with a thousand opportunities of t'oing good. Your probation is closed. You must now render up vour account, and Mie question is not how vou died, but how you lived- what v .ii ".111 . . .... . .. . "i . ou did to serve me and your generation. and to "prepare to meet your God." It will come to this, at last, in substance, it not in words. We shall all be judged out of the books, and tor all the deedo done in the body. Every one must five account of himself unto'God. i Owhat a great thing it is to live, to . .?. .. . live m Pticn au age as tnts, wnen there is i . li o much to do at home and abroad, eo ... . n ...... .

While I was in Europe my affairs here were badly managed. I had no one but myself to care for, aud was lavish, recklessly so, in my expenditure. and ou my return 1 found my income much reduced. Still, at the time of my marriage 1 supposed that by taking the management of my business into my own hauds nd giving it strict attention. I should soon make all things right again. But, instead of that, thev have been

growing worse aud worse, and yesterday Mr rZlast investment had proved au eu'.ire failure, ! and I owe more than I dare tell you. j -'wrui was nrret aim red an entire failure", dr. tMit i --luversiae must be sold to liquidate those debu.
