If a sum is deposited, repayable in foreign mo ney, the banks designate on a list, general ly posted in the banking house, a certain number of batiks whose bills they will re- ceive as “foreign money,” which money they use; and it they repay the sum depos ited in the bills of these banks, (hey .deem the contract fuifiled. If any one of these banks becomes insolvent previous to the payment, it is my opinion tliat the. bank re ceiving its bills runs the risk of the loss thence accruing. Q When a deposite is made of foreign money, or such as is not received as gen eral deposite, but subject to .be refunded to the depositor in paper of a similar kind to that, deposited; if paper of a similar kind, at the time of making the deposite, should afterwards depreciate in value, would the depositor be bound to receive it in itsdepre dated state, in payment of such deposite? A. I should say yes to a question thus specific; but I do not know whether, strict ly considered, the notes of different banks can be viewed as precisely similar. If the bank specifics beforehand in what tnioncy it will repay, it is a special contract, and the depositor must abidb by his own agree ment. Iiut^ if one of the banks in whost- E lbe deposite is agreed to be repaid. ibsequently failed, the bank receiving the deposite would no*, in my opinion, be authorised to repay the deposite in the rotes ol such bank as bad thus failed.— 'What r ue of depreciation would justify a bank ip offering to pay, or a depositor in refusing to receive, deptecialcd, notes, 1 Canmg state Q.
