THE GREAT FAILURE.

The crucial fact, in this epoch of commercial catastrophes, is not the stoppage of Smith, Jones, and Robinson, nor the suspension of specie payments by a greater or less number of banks, but the paralysis of the trade of the civilized globe. We have had presented to us, within the last quarter, the remarkable, though by no means novel, spectacle of a sudden overthrow of business, in the United States, in England, in France, and over the greater part of the Continent.
