National Hanks
Having had many inquiries made a s
to the consequence of a failure of an v
one of the National Banks, ant: eiaed
by the government, and their
some uneasiness felt at the report of
the failure of four of them in the
north, we cony the following from the
“Con.a*eroial” of the New Orleans
Crescent, which explains the whole
question:
“The failure of four National Banks
at the north redeem tfeir ein ulation
in the u'ited States treasury notes,
lias created a petty pan e an ong sums
holders of this currency . Yesterday,
we are informed, at one, at least, of
the city markets, it was refused by thr
butchers. 1 ’.der these cireumstar ces.
and in order to prevent ill-informed *
holders from selling at a di-count, (lie
First National Bank prom; t-'y gave no
tiee, throe _h the press, that it was rea
dy to redeem ALU National Hank is
sues, at its counter, at par, in Edited
States treasury note% In the mcan*
t me, some money dealers were ex
changing city treasury notes for them
a’ par, anti all the banks ami dealer*
were receiving them on dci-nsit, and
in some cases, exchanging legal tender
notes tor them to accommodate t.mil
holders.
“It is evident that the public do
not appreciate the fulness in the pros
visions of the National Hanking Law
to save the holders of the bank cireu- j
Jation from loss. In the first instance, !
the bank is compelled to deposit with
the comptroller of the currency Lr ifed j
States Bonds to the amount of at least j
one-third of its capital. The c< mp* ,
troller then issue? to the banks, in I
circulating notes, ninety per cent of,
the market value of the securities de
posited—but in no case more than par
reserving'the ten per cent as a margin
for the protection, not of the. holders
of the notes, but of the Government,
hieh, in any event, is bound to pay
the full face of the not-- in lawful
money of the United Stab that is,
if the securities deposited were sud
denly to become valueless, the Gov
ernment would ba the loser, not the
note holder.
“The proceedings in the case of a
bank failure are prompt and simple.
The hold cr of the bank’s bills presents
them at the counter for redemptiom
in lawful meney. It is refused. The
holder then protests them formally,
and the notary sends the protests to
Oontroll of the Currency. The Con
troller makes further investigation in
to the facts, and on being satisfied of
the Lilurc, is bound, within thirty
days thereafter, to declare the depos
ited securities forfeited to the Govern
ment. Thereupon the secretary of the
treasury .is required Mo direct the j
holders of the notes of the broken j
bank to present them at the United
■ States Treasury, at Washington, for
payment, w! en they will bo paid in
lawful money of the Unite 1 States.
There are other provisions in the law
to guard the government against es
sential loss, but, standing in the posi
tion of endorser of the notes., the gov
ernment is bound to pay them in law
ful money, whatever may be ttic result j
to itself.’’

In a recent message to Confess
the President expressed the following
views:
“From all tjie information in my
possession andfrom that which I have
recently derived from the most relia
ble authority, I am induced to cherish
the belief that scetional animosity i
surely and rapidly merging itself into
a spirit of nationality, and that repre.
sentation, connected with a properly
adjusted system of taxation, will result
in the harmonious restoration of the
States to the National Union.”
The President also furnishes a com
munication from General Grant, in
which that officer says:
“I had free conversation with the
people of the South during my recent
tour, and I am satisfied that the peo
pie have accepted the present situation
of offairs in good faith.”
General Grant also says. “There
is an unusual acquiescence in the au
thority of the General Government

rpilE undersigned will buy or sell lands
I located in this section, for persons in
any part of the country. Having the ad
vantage of a newspaper circulating over
the country, my facilities for purchases
and sales are much better than could oth
erwise be obtained. Persons addressing
me on the subject must comply with the
following instructions : If wishing to sell
lauds, describe them fully and truthfully,
quality, number of acres of each quality,
whether pine, hammock,'high or low lands
and the lowest? price the owner will take.
Or if the object, be to, purchase— -state what
kind of lands are wanted, the number of
acres as near as practicable, and what
price you have made up your mind to give.
•When lands are thus entrusted to me for
sale, the owner cannot himself dispose of
them without becoming responsible for the
advertising charges. L. C. BRYAN.
