The First National Bank of this place suspended pay ment this morning. The suspension caused genoral surprise all over the country, and it has been almost the sole surject of conversation to-day in business circles. Tne correspondent of the HERALD called on one of the bank officials this evening, and learned that it was caused by Mr. C. F. Sheener, ot No. 328 Walnut street, Philauelphia. Mr. Shoeper OWDE nearly twothirds of all the stock, and over $200,000 worth of his paper weat to protest on Saturday last. Five years ago he was worth about $1,500,000. He was always very encerprising and consequently invested bis money in various business pursuite. His investments lu this city are very large. He owns the Tamaqua Rothing Mill, a colliery at Beaver Meadow, a surnace at Reddington, Northampton county, and IS a twothird owner in Shoener & Alien's machine works, in this borough, and besides had a lot of bonus and stocks in Philadelphia. His failure seriously affects all these enterprises. The back was first inaugurated in 1854 as the Anthracite State Bank, and was turned into a national bank 18 1863. 1be directors are Mr. George Wiggan, Mr. E J. Fry, of Tamaqua; Mr. C. T. Succurr, Mr. George F. Wiggan, Mr. W. F. Carter, Mr. W. F. Donaldson, of Pailade.phis, and Mr. Thomas Carter, of Andenried. According to a statement made to your correspondont by one of the directore, the bank 18 able to pay depositors dollar for dollar. They have on hand $150,000 in bonds and $90,000 in individual deposits. For years past the bank has been paying ten per cent dividends and was always considered a reliable institution. To-day the Stock is quoted ou the exchange at $84, $34 above par value. The suspension, however, will nave a pa1 effect on the community, as a large number of poor people are depositors. The rolling mill and machine shop here have stopped, throwing a large number of people out of employment. This occurring at the ominencement of winter means general destisution among the poor.

Their cries were heartthem. rending, but no assistance could be given John Postoak has been sentenced in the United States Court, at Fort Smith, Ark., to be hanged on the 20th of December next. The annals of crime do not present a more diabolical and wicked sin than that for which John Postoak has been tried, convicted, and sentenced to suffer death. He is a half-breed Creek Indian. His victims were John Ingley, a white man, and his wife. In October, 1877, Postoak became incensed at Ingley for his refusal to give him tobacco. He went off, borrowed a revolver, and came back to Ingley's house, called Ingley out to the door, and shot him down. He then placed his revolver to Mrs. Ingley's breast and shot her, killing both instantly. The Inglevs had one child, only twenty months old, who was left alone with the dead bodies of his parents, and, the house being some distance off the road, the murder was not discovered until eleven days after it was perpetrated. The child was then on the very verge of the grave from starvation, and the dogs had almost completely devoured the woman, and had also eaten the flesh from the face of Ingley. Whenasked by the Judge if he had anything tosay why the sentence of the law should not be passed upon him. Postoak replied that he had nothing at all to say. He seemed perfectly stoical, taking his sentence with an air of indifference.

A special from Edinburg, Pa., to the Pittsburg Commercial-Garette gives the particulars of the destruction of that place by fire on the morning of the 12th. The fire broke out at half past three o'clock, near Wilber's livery stable, Main-street, spreading rapidly, and soon swept over an entire block. The firemen were promptly on hand, but their efforts were paralyzed by the insufficiency of water. Total loss estimated at from $350,000 to $400,000, largely insured. Two hundred and twenty-five buildings were burned, and the town almost completely destroyed. Much suffering among the losers. A relief committee was organized, and the contributions of food from adjacent towns and farmers in the vicinity was distributed to the homeless. Notes from Abroad.
