I said to my fonr-jear-o'.d,
“Pray vrhat shall b* done to the bad, bad

Who will not do t* she's told? a
Too well yon love yonr own wee way,
While little yon lore to mind:
But mama kno\«s what is be*t for you;

So I told her of “Casablanca,”
And tbo fearful burning ship.
“Do you think,” said I, “such a child
His mothor would havo to whip?”'
And my heart went out with the story sad
Of this boy so nobly brave,
Who would not dare to disobey,
Even his life to save.
. Then her eyes gtw* bright ns the moniing,
And they seemed to look me through,
“Ah! ohl” thought I, “you understand
The lesson I have in view.
“Now, what do yon think of this lad, my

Tell all that is in yonr heart.”
“I fink," she said, “ho was dreffnl good,

THE GEORGIA FHESS.
We quoto the following in reference to
tbo collapse of the Citizen's Bank of At
lanta, from the Constitution, of Wednes
day night:
THE CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.
The immediate cause of the “run” on
the bank was, as we are Informed, that its
exchange checks were thrown out by the
Mercantile Bank, its New York corre
spondent, on day before yesterday. The
first intimation that came of this a lion on
the part or the Mercantile Bank was a tel
egram received at about!) o’clock on Tues
day night by Mr. Irwin Bird, who had
sent on $02 exchange puicliased from the
Ultizens’ bank. He at once sent the dis
patch out to Mr. Patterson’s house, and
thus gave him the first knowledge lie had
of the course of li.s New York correspon
dent. Some other dispatches were re
ceived, and from this there was alarm
among those who knew it. Mr. Leonard,
the teller, stood at his pest and paid the
checks as they came in, until he had re
duced ills cash to about $l,r>00. lie then
had a short rest, when the drawing com
xnenced again. From this poiut he paid
until, we believe, there was less than
$50 in the bank. A check for $300
being presented, he was then forced to al
low it to be dishonored, and he retired
from his desk, with as heavy a heart, per
haps, os ever beat in a human breast. The
getminal causes of the trouble are mani
fold and hard to get at—but the follow
ing are tho points as w e get them: In the
first place, the bauk has been handicapped
for a long time with heavy accounts on
which it could not realize and for which
it has had to take property instead of cash.
One of these is the Atlanta rolling irlll,
which, while prosperous under its present
mansgeut, was unfortunate before its or
ganization. The bauk bad been obliged
to take a quantity of the bonds of tbc old
rolling will company, and could not real
ize ou them promptly. The new rolling
mill company is highly prosperous, and
owes the bank nothing. T hese and other
old matters which the bank had leen car
rying, crippled it to a certain extent.
Added to this, Mr. Speer, the State treasn-
rer, has steadily reduced the deposits of tho
State in the bank, from about $-170,000 to
about $100,000. This reduction has Leen
made since the 1st of January, and it has
of course kept the bauk pressed to meet
the State’s cheeks. The recent failure of
the cotton factory locked up for the bank
about $10,000. All these facts besides
shortening the bank’s resources had gone
to Us New York correspondent, with
which it had had relations fur but a week
or two, and on Tuesday the Mercantile
bank threw out its checks, holding the
cash on band to meet the liabilities that
the Citizens’ bad created with it since its
connection. The account of tbo State
with the Citizens bank has been large,
and the baiauce in the bank at the time or
the suspension was $103,000. The State
bolds that it has a first lien on the assets
of the bank, but some of the other credit
ors may coutest this claim. In the case
of the Bank of Rome the State stepped iu
for the first assets. The other creditors
employed counsel and fought the right of
the State to a preferred creditorship. 'After
argument Judge Underwood decided that
the State had a prior claim. Judge
Uuderwood is quoted as saying that lus
own opinion was that the State had uo
such right, but that after looking into tbe
decisions of tbe Supreme Court on the
subject be became satisfied that tlio law
had settled the case and that the State’s
right was indisputable. This seems to be
the drift of legal opinion in the city. If
this is settled the State will get its
$103,000 before any other creditor gets a
dollar. The bond of $50,000 that tbe
Slate has taken to secure its deposit, in con
formity with her law, is signed as follows,
the figures opposite the names being the
amount of taxable property reported tothu
comptroller:
B.B. Crew $17,915
W. H. Patterson 10,925
V. B. Tommoy unknown
Pcrino Brown <5,800
H. C. Leonard 4,100
L C. Jones 3,400
It is said that Mr. Tommey Is worth the
amount of the bond himself, and them
no question that the bond is good. If tbe
Slate's priority of claim is settled, tbe
money dne the State can certainly be col
lected from tbe assets of tbe bank with
out recourse on tho bondsmen.
TBEABUBBIt SPEER'S STATEMENT.
Treasurer Speer said, when asked what
the State’s relations with the banks were:
“In my dealing with tbe bauk I have al
ways tound them accurate, prompt and
business like, aud my relations Lave been
kind and pleasant.” “You have reduced
the State’s balance with them very heavi
ly ?” “Yes. When I went Into ollico the
Citizens’ had $334,000 of the total $000,-
000 of tbe money then in tho treasury.
It had Ibis money legitimately and I make
no point in that. But as there were elev
en depositories designated by law I thought
it best to equalize the deposits somewhat,
and not leave over hair of tho entire
amount in one bank. But I did not draw
out a cent of tbe money except as the
State needed it, and only for the use of
the State. I have reduced tbe balance
held by tbe bank about $230,000 since
took bold. But I havo not drawn a check
since the filh of April, when I gave a check
for $815, and have only drawn out r.bout
fifteen thousand since the 5th of April.
At tbe time the bank closed it had about
twenty-five thousand dollars more ot the
State's money than any other bank’in the
Stale.” Mr. Speer expresses no opinion
as to what course the State will pursue.

Thomas A. Scott, of Pennsylvania, 125

An UxtiAPrY Maiiiiiaoe.—In the up
per part of this county, a sixleen-.vear-old
young man by tlio name oi William
Reeves, courted a twelve-year-old girl by
.the name of Emily Foster. She nwoM
to marry him, and her parents gave their
consent. Last Sunday night was tip* time
set for the marriage. It appears that tbe
young ladv ami horpareuts, with the
concurrence of some friends, had decided
to p'.ay a joke on young Reeves. Od the
night set apart, Reeves appeared dressed
in his best, happy In the thought of uni
ting his destiny with one so pure and
lovely as Miss Emily, little dreaming that
there is a “many a sl ! p between tlio cup
aud the lip.” A young man named Clias.
France robed himself in bridal attire, and
a snowy veil bid his face. An uncle agreed
to have a marriage licence and lm provided
one in the shape of an old guano note,
which he placed in an envelope and hand
ed to Thmnas TTiaxton, who appeared in
solemn dignity to make the twain one.
Young Reeves, still unconscious of the
plan to victimize 1dm, with confused mo
tions escorted bis prospecti vo bride to a po
sition in front of Mr. Thaxton, who
quickly performed the ceremony. Im
mediately Miss Emily Foster stepped
from a place of seclusion and congratu
lated the groom. Young Reeves looked
at her in astonishment, and he turned and
looked at Ids bride. Some one had lifted
the veil from Prance’s face by this time,
and when Reeves saw to
whom he was married, -he
looked the very picture of despair, and
exclaimed, “My dollarand a half Is gone.’
The ludicrous affair was witneiwd by
about sixty persons. The young man at
last accounts was quite wratiiy and says
ho intends to have the young lady yet.
The Albany News says there is a

We find the following in the Columbus
Enquirer-Sun, of Wednesday:
A SiNOUr.AB Case.—Yesterday a gen
tleman, well known in this city, made an
attack upon a little girl about thirteen
years of age, which indicates that he is
laboring under mental derangement. lie
was in a hack, and calling tbe little girl
to him liauded out a package of letters as
titough lie would give them to her. She
thought it was a friend of her father whom
site knew, and did uot hesitate to run up
to the hack. On discovering her mistake
she turned aud fled, when he jumped
from the hack and pursued her until she
was protected by some negroes, who
stopped him. They guarded her to '.he
residence of her fattier, who Is one of our
prominent aud best citizens. When the
facts reached the ears of the girl’s father
than personal bondsmen. The Governor
talked as though lie wanted to make the
chauge, and I then told him that If he was
determined to do as Mr. Patter
son suggested, that I thought tho^best
plan to follow would bo to make the
bank pay into the State treasury every
dollar that it had belonging to the State,
aud theu ho coaid make another bond.
After saying this, I again advised him not
to make the change. After this happened
.1 told Mr. Speer of the interview, and
suggested that he get out the money as
fast as possible; that I did not like the
looks of things. At the time that Mr.
Patterson, Governor Colquitt and myself
had this interview, tho State had about
thrce-liundred thousand dollars In the
bank. This amount Mr. Speer continued
to reduce by checking it out frequently.
A short time after tUis Governor Colquitt
and my sell had another conversation
ou the same line. Mr. Patterson
had been to see him again and
reuewed the request. I again
advised Governor Colquitt not to re
lease tbo bonds given as security and as 1
was going out of tbo city ou a business
trip, wrolo out my opinion and filed it
with the Governor. I heard nothing
more of tho matter until about ten days
ago, when I was Informed by Bob. Harde
man Ibat the Governor had changed the
bond. Upon inquiry I was told
that Mr. Speer had reduced the indeoted-
ue&s of the bauk to about ninety thou
sand dollars by checking it out, aud that
when he got the deposit the bank In some
way raised the ninety thousand and paid
the State off. The bonds were the ren-
leased and new security givou by the di
rectors. The bank was then continued
as a depository. The change took place
about one month ago while 1 was out
of the city, and I did not know auythiug
about it until Bob Hardeman told me of
it.” “How do you intend to proceed to
recover the Slate’s money?” asked the
Phonograph. “1 shall have an attach
ment issued and levy on the property of
the sureties, in the same way that I am
doing at Koine. By the time that the
State is satisfied, I think that there will be
very little Ieil for the creditors. As I
have alreaily said, I will consider tbe
State quite lucky if she does not lore
$39,000 by the failure. Not more than
teu minutes before I heard of the failure
to-day, I was talking to Treasurer Speer
and told him that he would have to be
very careful about tho deposits of the
State, and was discussing tlio status of the
State’s deposits iu the Citizens’ Bauk.”
The Attorney General is aka of the
opiuion that the debts due the State by
the two bauks which havo recently failed
will be pronounced preferred debts, and
collected as such.
The Atlanta Post-Appeal has received
from Treasurer Speer the following state
ment of the condition of the State finances
up to March 31,1881, the date of his last
quaiter:

Almost a Cvclone.—The Thomas-
vllle Enterprise reports as follows; From
wliat we can gather from various sources,
llte section of this county lying just along
the Jefferson county line, and a portion of
Jefferson county, Florida, suffered from a
heavy gale or tornado last Thursday
night, it rained, blew and thundered
heavily here, but ths wind did no damage
Friday morning tbe road this side of Mon
ticello, for three or four miles, was block
ed up with fallen trees so that it was al
most impossible to get along. Several
houses were reported as unroofed and
some blown flat on places near :own. The
heaviest of the gale, so far as we
can learn, was seven or eight mill*
northeast of Monliceilo. Three cabins on
the place owned by Dr. T. M. McIntosh,
in Florida, were blown down and some
parties hurt, but none of them seriously.
Go the Linton place of II. J. <t A. T. Mc
Intyre, about a mile of fencing was blown
dowu, but the cyclone passed soutb of the
buildings. On Col. McIntyre’s place, iu
Brooks, near the Florida line, several
miles of fencing were blown down ami
one house mashed in by a falling tree.
We have no doubt much damage was
done, but we have been unable to learn
particulars. A heavy hail storm accom
panied the wind and rain.
Mb. Patterson, cashier of the defunct
Citizens’ Bank of Atlanta, says there is
not one word of truth iu the statement
that the bank held a note of Gov. Col
quitt for $4,200, endorsed by Col. Avery.
Tbe Atlanta Constitution has the follow
ing in reference to the bank and Gov. Col
quitt:
Mr. Clifford Anderson wishes the report
that he represented the Governor as act
ing in opposition to his advice iu tbe mat
ter of the bank’s bond, contradicted in
the fullest terms. Ho did not advise
against the change iuthe securities and
did not file a protest or utter a verbal one,
He advised the Governor that the bank
might substitute a personal bond for the
$50,900 city bonds, after the bauk had
paid up iu full its indebtedness to the
•State, and opened a new account. The
law creating tbc depositories contemplated
only a personal security bond, and it was
held that if there was any trouble the
$50,000 city bonds belonging to the bank
aud held by tbe State as security, might
be claimed-os part of the assets ot the bauk
and subject to the claims of all the credi
tors. Ot course no such claim can be set
up against the bond, which is admittedly
good for the $50,000. Under this view of
tbe case Gov. Colquitt instructed Mr. Pat
terson to settle up liis account with the
State in full, which he did. This being
done the securities weie surrendered, a
new account was opened and a new bond
tiled. Ail this was done in strict accord
ance with tlio opinion of tho Attorney-
General. Tho Attorney General after ex
amining the law carefully, decided that it
contemplated the filing of a personal se
curity and not the deposit of bonds or
stocks

Attobnhy General Anderson’s
VrEWS.—The Atlanta Phonograph prints
the following points of an interview with
the Attorney General on Thursday morn
ing, in reference to the recent failure oi
tbe Citizens’ Bank, of Atlanta:
Meeting Attorney-General Aulerson at
tbe Markham last evening, a reporter of
the Phonograph asked him how he
thought tbe state would come out in the
bank failure. “I hope,” said be, “that
the Slate will gel all that is due her. but
am fearful that abe will not. If the
Elate gels out with a loss not greater than
$30,000,1 will be thankful. From what
I can understand, the bank is a kind of
wild-cat concern, and has been doing bus
iness on the Slate’s money. I hare been
feeling quite anxious about tbe State’s
money in this depository for some time
past, and at my suggestion Mr. Speer, the
treasurer, has been drawing out tbe
funds gradually, with the view of
getting even with tbe bank. 'A little Inci
dent which occurred in December last,
made me ieel shaky about the State's
money. In that month Governor Colquitt
called me into bis office where I found
Mr. Patterson, the cashier of the bank,
and informed me that tbe security given
the State when this bank was made a de-
Attorney General Anderson hi re- jwsltoiy, wee $50,000 in the bonds of the
city of Atlanta. He told me that Mr.
Patterson wanted him to release the
bonds, and in lieu of that bond the bonds
men would give personal security. He
■aid that Mr. Patterson wanted to tell the
bonds. I told tbe Governor iu the pres
ence of Mr. Patterson, that I disapproved
of the change, as I believed that tbe city
boudt of Atlanta were better security
the disbursements. Two hundred tliou-
saml dollars in bonds have been called in,
half for February 1,1881, and tlie other
half April 1,1881. Much of this lias been
paid, but by no means all of it, many per
sons seeming to prefer holding the bonds
to having tlie cash. The amount of in
terest paid since November 11th last is
$203,495.90 less a small amount of princi
pal, ard the Treasurer is being daily
called upon to meet past duo coupons.
When Mr. Speer went into office on
November 11, 18S0, the Citizen’s Bauk, of
Atlanta, had $134,000 of tlie States money,
which amounted, in all, to $005,954. The
Southern Bank, of Savauuah, bad the next
largest deposit—$54,000—and the Georgia
railroad $42,000.
Mbs. Susan Bowers’house, near New-
nan, was burned last Tuesday moniing,
causing a loss of $1,500, with no insur
ance.

2,512 bales of cottou last Thursday.

“Marian” writes as follows from At
lanta to the Savannah aVews: Tho Su
preme Court is having a great deal of
trouble ill getting judges to preside when
any of the court are disqualified. Under
the new constitution a judge of the Supe
rior Court is to be substituted. But no
provision was made for paying tbe ex
penses of such judge. At first it was easy
to get a conscript judge, on account of the
novelty of tbe tiling, and the honor of pre
siding on the Supreme bench, anil appear
ing in the papers and reports as a Supreme
Court judge. But after the novelty wore
off these gentlemen were very sensibly
unwilling to pay twenty-five or thirty dol
lars for a barren honor worn out by usage.
And so it is a hard thing to get gentlemen
to preside in vacancies. Tlie only remedy
is for the July session of tlie Legislature
to authorize the payment of the traveling
expenses of such conscripted judges, and
then it will be plain sailing. The matter
is ail important one and needs some rem
edy.
Says the Albany News: Money is in
great demand in Aibauy. Capitalists
consider that they are granting a favor to
the borrower when they only get 12 per
cent, for loans on gilt-edge paper, and
some of them have the audacity to charge
25 per cent. Then, we say, Albany needs
a bank.

modation of their largely increasing trade
is completed, which will be about tbe
2Cth ot this month, their shipments will
roach fully 8,000 barrels monthly. In
addition to their lime works, they have an
extensive grist mill, the shipments from
which average twenty-fivo cars loads of

Attorney General Anderson Las
a card in the Atlanta Phonograph cor
recting that paper’s account of an icier-
terriew with him in regard to tho sus
pension of the Citizens’ Bank. As wo
published that interview wo cheerfully
give place to the correction as follows:
< Without going into all the details of
the conversation, allow me to state that
my retercnce to the substitution of the
bond or the bank with personal security
for tlie city of Atlanta bonds, which it had
originally deoosited, was by way of ex
planation of the advice I gave the treasur
er to reduce tlie amount of the State's
money on deposit in tiie bank. I allud
ed to tbe anxiety of Mr. Patterson to
withdraw the Atlanta bonds as exciting a
suspicion in my mind, that the bank was
pressed for money, which induced me to
caution the treasurer as stated. I did not
intend to reflect on tbe conduct of
the Governor in allowing the sub
stitution. White I stated that lie
seemed disposed to accommodate Mr. Pat
terson about tbe matter, if it could be
done with propriety and safety to the
State, I did not state that “he seemed
determined to do as Mr. Patterson sug
gested." I referred to Mr. Pattcrson’j
applying twice and the Governor’s con-
dence of Mr. Patterson’s anxiety to with- ter tli6 line hail been selected the work of

state that I legaided the Atlanta bonds as
belter security tliau any personal security
which could bo given. 1 think, too, your
reporter is mistaken in slatingthatlspoke
of the bauk as a “wild-cat” concern. I
expressed my surprise that, having more
than $100,000 or tlie State’s money, it
should have suspended, aud spoke of that
fact as furnishing evidence that it was a
weak bauk, having little capital of its
own.

was rather a hindrance to the bank than
a help. Six mouths cut oi the year the
road overchecked its deposits. Theu
there was the liability of -accidents to
trains, floods aud other damage, which
would have ealied for the paying out of
money. Now there is none of that.” Re
porter—“Haven’t you some money on
hand in the bank ? ” Mr. Phinizy—“Yes:
we have $705,000, but out of this $190,-
000, in round numbers, will have to be
paid by the 1st. of June for steel rails al
ready contracted for. This will leave
$115,000, which can either be paid out to
the stockholders as an extra dividend or
kept as a sinking fund. I am in favor of the
latter, but tlie directois may decide to
pay it out iu dividends.” Reporter—
“What will be tiie banking capital of the
bank ?” Mr. Phinizy—“It will be as
much as it ever was, and depositors will
have just as much security. Tiie road
will be responsible for its liabilities, as
tlie law does not recoguize the lessees as
tiie owners of tiie road, but the Georgia
Railroad and Banking Company. Tlie
$000,000 paid annually by tiie lessees will
also be security.” Reporter—“I suppose
tlie lessees will not deposit here, nut iu
Savannah?” Mr. Phinizy—“Why in Sa
vannah? Savannah has nothing to do
with it. Tlie lessees will deposit money
here beyond a doubt. They will have to
pay all rnuning expenses, salaries, pay of
employes, etc., right here, ami they will,
as a matter of course, deposit money
earned by the road, in this bank, to do it
with.” Reporter—“Will the bank con
tinue the State depository?” Mr.JPbinizy
—“Oil, yes!” Reporter—“Didn’t the bank
make $41,000 during the last year?”
Mr. Phinizy—“It made $41,700, and it
will make more hereafter. What it makes
will be added to the $1300,000 rental, to be
paid iu dividends to tlie stockholders.”
Reporter—“Did the Richmond and Dan
vilie railroad make any proposition to the
Georgia railroad?'' Mr. Phiuizy—“If it
did I never heard of it. It made no prop
osition ot any kind. Ail the talk about
tbat road offering ns 12 per cent., is utter
ly without foundation.” Reporter—“It is
reported that tlie owners of the South Car
olina railroad have leased the Central
railroad.” Mr. Phinizy—“That is non
sense. The Central railroad cannot be
leased, neither can its stock be watered.
The attorney of the Central railroad gave
that as his opinion to the directors of tlie
Ceutral some time ago.”

“A little after four o’clock In tbe afternoon
Frain, who had been In the city, stopped
at Quinlan’s and went in. Soon after he
stopped Quinlan came across from
lielinke’s store. His wife induced him to
go in the bed room, back of the store, and
lie down. Mrs. Quinlan, from whom we
obtained our information, says that after
he went into the room, Frain, who was
very drunk, asked for a drink.
She declined to glvo it, telling
him that he had taken too much al
ready. Frain then began a row with a
negro woman iu the store and Quinlan,
hearing the noise, started out of his room
to see what was the matter. Mrs. Quin
lan went to him, told him there was no
trouble aud put her arm around him to
help him back to tbe bed. While in Ibis
position Frain rushed in, and, when close
to Quinlau, fired at him with a revolver,
the ball striking Quinlan near the mouth
and ranging upwards. With his blood
and brains oozing out Quinlan exclaimed,
“Gli, my God, Susie, I am doue for,” and
sank back dead.
Frain made his escape, but was after

“I war passing through the car in Atlan

conductors to a reporter yesterday, “and I
came to a pleas ant-faced gentlemanly-look
ing man. In response to my application
for a ticket, he held out both hands and
smiled. They were locked together with
hand-caffs. I was surprised, for they seem
ed so much out of of place on tbo fellow’s
wrists. He did not look like a criminal at
all, bat was by his his own acknowledg
ment a horse thief on his way to Tennessee
for trial aud in chargo of an officer.”
“He got a long ways from Tennessee
with his horse.”
Yes. I sat down by him aud ho told me
all about it. It seems there is in Chatta
nooga a gentleman by the name of James
McMillan,who had sent a fine horse to his fi
ance as a present. Tiie prisoner whose name
was Levi Anderson stole this horse and one
other and struck out for Alabama. Had he
stolen an ordinary horse, or even a fino
horse with no romance snrronnding him
doubtless ho would now have boon at liber
ty, but he took McMillan's present to his
sweetheart, and Mae swore he would regain
tho animal if ho had to follow Anderson
around tho world. He procured a photo of
tbe criminal and had four hundred copies
mado. These ho placed in the hands of
officers right and loft, and on tho 15th inst.
one of the officials ruked in Levi at Enfaula.
“Tbe inoral is, therefore,” murmured the

Captuln *V. G. Baoul as an Inventor.
Captain \V. G. Raonl, while discharging
tho arduous duties of vice president of tho
Control railroad, has found time to make
some valuable additions to the list of rail
road inventions. His patent platform and
coupler has been fully described in these
columns, and is daily in nso upon tho cars
of tho Central road. Wo notice that tho
elegant passenger coaches being turned oat
of tlie Savannah shops are thus provided,
and the two palace sleepers now nearly
completed in tlio Macon shops aro likewise
fitted up. Captain Raonl’s latest invention,
howevor, is likely to be of much more gen
eral importance. It is a car box and axio
to supersede tho old style. Tho old plan
was to torn down tlie axle
bearing, say half an inch, leaving a pro
jecting button at tho onter end of the orig
inal diameter of the axle, to provent tbo
lateral motion or the end thrust of the
nxle3 as the cars swayed from side to side.
This cutting away the axle so redaces the
Hizo as to greatly lessen the life of it. The
invention of Captain Raoul stops the end
thrust by a new devico in tlio bor, applying
the stop to the end of the axle and entirely
does away with the necessity for catting it
down. The invention has other points of
merit, and it is the opinion of experienced
railroad men that it will come into each
general use as to pnt a large amount of
money in the inventor’s pocket. If tbo in
vention is all that is claimed for it, we shall
hear of uo more broken axles and loss of
life from such upon roads using it.

Belter Try the “Railroad Banka-”
A so us ta Chronicle.
Two of the banks of this State, one at
Rome and tho other at Atlanta, have re
cently collapsed. They were banks of de
posit of tho funds of tlie commonwealth.
The Treasurer deserves credit for saving
much from the general wreck, but it is a
pity that any of the State money should
havo been placed with them. These bro
ken institutions are not national banks.
It is to be regretted, perhaps, that the treas
ure of tho commonwealth had not been de
posited in national banks. Of course, a
national bank can break, if badly man
aged, but it is not so insecure os a State
bank. Tho national bank system, though
not perfect, is the best this country inis ever
had, and, with some amendments, tho best
it is ever likely to get. The State has got
two financial black eyes in n few weeks.
It is to be hoped that the end of snch ca
lamity has been reached. It occurs to ns to
suggest, meanwhile, that if there is any ob*
jection to national institutions the Treasu
rer had better try the “Railroad Banks.”

A Lady Correspondent.
Mr. Editor: In a recent issue of your
paper, “Daisy B.” writes what to do when
she lias the “b.ucs.” Now, I have been
troubled with that very unpleasant and
essentially feminine complaint in tiie past,
and l am quite sure my experience will
help her. 1 don’t believe those iudigo
feelings come because tilings don’t go right
around us, but because matters don’t go
right within us. Every lady understands
this and knows the cause. For years I
suffered terribly, ami I now see that I
might have avoided it all had I known
what I do to-day. I tried taking Warner’s
Safo Kidm y and Liver Cure as an experi
ment, and it did for me more than I could
ever havo dreamed it possible to do for
ftny woman. I would not be without it
for tho world, and I earnestly advise
“Daisy B.’? or any lady troubled as she
was, to use tlie means which I did, and I
am sure it will have the same effect.
