TheHankiiiK Demoralization Its
Causes and Cure.
The forthcoming annual report of tlie Comp
troller of the Currency, treating the subject ol
interest on deposits and certification of checks,
sHvs: “The proposed action of the Cleariug
House in the cify of New York, if adopted by
the Clearing Houses of the principal c ities of the
Union, would do more to prevent the payment
of interest on deposits thau any congressional
enactments, but the evils resulting from the pay
ment of interest upon deposits are by no means
confined to the city banks. It may be safely
said that this custom, winch prevails in almost
every city and village of the Union, has done
more thau any other to demoralize the business
of banking. The king of legislation needed is
that which shall apply to nil banks and bankers
alike, whether organized under the national cur
rency act or otherwise. A law prohibiting the
payment of interest upon deposits by the na
tion banks will have but little effect, unless fol
lowed by similar legislation under authority of
the different States, and there is little hope that
such legislation can be obtained. The national
currency act, which was passed during the war,
provided for a tax of one-halt ot one per cent,
upon all deposits, and subsequent internal rev
enue legislation extended this tax to all deposits
made with Slate banks and individual bankers.
This was essentially a war ax, and should, in
my judgment, be repealed with the other sim
ilar internal revenue taxation; and I recommend
if legislation is proposed on this subject, that
the law ho so amended as to repeal this tax so
far as it applies to demand deposits, ami that an
increased rate of taxation be imposed uniformly
upon ail deposits which, directly or indirectly,
are placed with bank or bankers with tlie offer
or explanation ot receiving interest.. Such leg
islation, if rigorously enforced, will have the ef
fect not only to reduce the rate of interest
throughout the country, but will at the same
time prevent the illegitimate organization of
■savings banks, the organization of w hich should
bejillowed only upon the condition that the
savings of the people, shall be carefully and
prudently Invested, and the interest arising
therefrom, after deducting reasonable expends,
distributed from time to time to the depositors,
and to no other persons whatsoever.

The Supreme Court of California has derided,
that the taxation of a mortgage on land, or the
money secured thereby,and the taxation of the

It is expected that a deputation of German
catholics will shortly arrive at the Vatican and

The bank notes used represent the sum of fifty

The orange harvest seems to be very abun
dant in Southern California. “At Van Leuven’s
orchard, near Ran Bernardino,” says the Ga
zette of that place, “about fifty of the largest
trees will yield an average of 1,500 oranges each,
and they are breaking down under the weight
of delicious fruit Van Leuven last year pick
ed a hundred that would weigh a pound apiece.”
Important to Farmers.— By those experienc
ed in the matter, and in response to Professor
B roan's article on the causes of gin house igni
tion. it is said that tallow is the best lubrica
tor for gin machinery, especially the gudgeons
of the saw and brush. The gudgeons demand
the closest attention, from the rapidity of their
motion easily igniting particles of lint cotton.
Progress of tiie Grange Movement — The
Weekly bulletin just issued from the Secretary’s
office of the National Grange, in Washington,
states tliat the number of subordinate granges
organized during the first half of the pro <at
month was thirty-six. During the month of Oc
tober, 1,050 granges were organized. The to
tal number in the United States is now 8,262,
with a reported membership of 619,559.
Oysters are in perfection when from five to
seven years old. An oystermau can tell the age
of a bivalve by counting the successive layers or
plates overlapping each other, each of which is
termed a shoot, and indicates a j ear’s growth.
Judging from the size and thickness which some
shells attain, an oyster may be capable of ar
riving at the respectable age of three-score, and
not be the Methasaleh of his tribe then.
Self-Loading Carts. —The Conrier-Joumal
tells about some self-loading carts in use by one
of the contractors in that city for grading streets:
Each cart is drawn by three horses driven by
a man who is seated on a small seat like that of
a reaper and mower. On the front axle is hung
a gang of plows or scrapers, and when the cart
is put in motion the earth taken up by the scra
pers passes up to a revolving web, as in a bead
ing machine used on farms, and falls into the
cart which is attached behind. Each cart has
a holding capacity of one and a half cubic yards.
The driver can regulate the dip of the plows by
means of a lever. The cart is filled in an in
credibly short space of time, and for such work
as that on Broadway seems to be a perfect suc
cess. The run made is about titty yards, and
is accomplished in about two minutes and a
fraction, and the contractor is making quick
work of it
The charge for registering letters will be red

Seward and Lincoln. Ho demonstrates that
Lincoln was a man ol character, firmness, good

The Ultimatum. --It is ascertained that the
ultimatum to Spain is the restoration of tlie
Virginias, a salute to the United States flag,
the release of those a live, reparation to the fam

or the abolition ol ■ la very in Cuba does not en

A writer in the Chicago Tribune reports that
“George Eliot, whose maiden name was Marian
Evans, and who is now the wife of George lien*
ry Lewes, is very shy by nature and rendered
more so by the peculiar circumstance of her
marriage.” Wliat is the use of this sort of cov
ert false statement? The person spoken of is a
woman of great genius, and it is unworthy of
her and her friends to tell anything but the truth
respecting this subject. She is not married to
George Henry Lewes, but lives with him with
out marriage.— Ex.

ied on to satisfy a fi. hi. founded on a debt con
tracted before 1868, the husband,or on his fail
ure the wife, may apply for an exemption, un
der the law* as it stood before the debt was con
tracted,and the exemption, it obtained before ;
ihe sale under tlie levy, is a valid exemption
against the judgement so levying.”

A Profitabe Investment for
Capitaists!
A COTTON FACTORY
TO BE BUILT ON THIS
Water Site, of the Palace Mills,
Cos 1 II in li iih, fi si .
It is proposed to build on the water site of the
Palace Mills, a COTTON FACTORY for the
manufacture ot Cotton Goods. The Capital
Stock which will be $250,000, which will
include an ample flouting capital. The
building and machinery will be erected aud
arranged under the direction of J. Rhodes
Browne, Esy. The building will be a substan
tial structure, and tho machinery of the most
approved patterns.
The capital of the public is invited to this en
terprise as one promising sure, speedy and pro
fitable results. No subscription will be binding
until $200,000 is secured, when the subscribers
will be invited to convene for the purpose of or
ganizing the company, and tlie work will be
commenced.
NO TAXATION, either State, County or
Municipal, attaches to this investment for Ten
Years. The BEST water power on the rivor is
secured; the war*-houses ot cotton are at the
door; the railroads radiate from the city to every
market for goods; and operatives are seeking
employment. With such advantages is it un
reasonable to promise a profit ot 20 per cent,
per annum on the investment?
Subscriptions will be received at the Chatta
hoochee National Bank, the Merchants anil Me
chanics Bank, and the Banking Office of the
Georgia Home Insurance Company.
