The whole amount Of losses, by defalcators, bao
debts, SC. is about 3 millions, most Of which has
been charged to contingent fund and former years.
Within tho last few years, there has beer very
large addition to the resources, the operations, and
the profits Of the bank, owing chiefly to two causes;
lst the conversion Of stock loans into invest mens
Of more active character. I'd, and principally,
preventing over issues Of the State Branches, and
thus introducing its notes into circulation in
all parts of the country. To Mr.. Biddlc, the pre-
sent President Of the IT, S. Bank, the stockhol-
ders indebted for achieving their delicate and ardu-
Gus work.
One ofihc most valuable auxiliaries to the Bank
is its discount of bills ofexchange, foreign and do
nestle The amount Of domestic exchange purchas-
ed by the Bank in the year ending the LIST Of July,
1928, was $22,OS4, ,222. on which the profit was
S45l ,202 II; whilst the profit on the purchase o
domestic exchange in 1922, was S95,2i0 25, and
thus appears, that the profit Oh domestic exchange
has increased to amount SO great, as consd
rably to exceed all the expenses Of the Bank.
The stockholders were satisfied that the report
was clear, that the concerns of the Bank were Sc

ORDINATION.

On Wednesday, the Rev. Mr.. Farley,was ordained
minister of the Westminster Congregational So
ciety in this town. The services excited the most
Jevout interest in a numerous congregation. We
have never on any occasion witnessed such interest
ing performances. The Rev. Mr.. Greenwood, of
Boston, made tho introductory prayer, and read So
lections from scripture. The Rev. DIR. Edes made
the prayer ofordination. The Rev. Mr.. Parkman,
OF Boston, delivered the charge to Mr. Farley
The Rev. Mr.. Gannett, of Boston, delivered the
right hand offellow'hip. with an eloquent and ap-
propriate address, The Rev. Mr.. May, of Brook
lyn, (Con.) addressed tho Society, and the Rev,
Mr.. Walker, of Charestown, made the concluding
prayer. The performances throughout were of a
highly intellectual and religious character. OF the
sermon, by the Rev. DR.. Claiming, we can truly
say it surpassed any thing ofthc kind hoard;
it exceeded all the conceptions had formed o
that illustrious divine. The Benediction was pro-
nounccd by Mr.. Farley, in an impressive manner.
The music on the occasion was remarkably good,
evincing science and good tas;e.-Journai

HARBINGER OF PEAcE.-We have been
requested by worthy and respectable friend,
strong advocate for peace, to notice a now
work recently issued from the New York press,
| entitled the Harbinger Of Peace" perodi-
cal pamphlet edited by WILLIAM LADD, Esq.
We cheerfully comply with the request of our
friend, although we cannot agree with him in
believing that the custom of war can, or ever
will be abolished. The ambition Of man and
his propensity for gain. and TO exercise power,
will bring into collision, nations as well as in
dvduas.
Mr.. LApD, the editor. is worthy and highly
respectable citizen; most ofhs time is devoted
to the cause of Peace; he travels through all
parts Of the country establishing societies and
addressing the people, and we believe has
effected much good. He closes his Address
with the following eloquent appeal TO the peo-
plo of this country. 1--WE appeal TO the feel
ings ofthe phlanthropst, and we demonstrate
TO him, that War has broken more hearts than
he has ever bound up, and made more cripples
ana WIDOWS ana oTpnans tnal nc mas eNcI re-
lieved. We appeal to the political economist; !;
and show that war dries up the sources OF a
nations wealth, and burthens it with taxes for
many generations. We appeal to the patriot,
and particularly to the republicans patriot,
while we point to the ruins Of those republics,
that have thrown away their liberty in pursuit
of military glory. We appeal to the lover Of
tho arts and sciences, and show him how war
has swept away, as with tho besom Of destruc-
ton, the chofdpuyres Of the ancicnts, leaving
not a vcstge Of their painting, but few mu-
tlated monuments Of their sculpture, and here
and there an isolated column Of thor archi-
lecture; and tho library of the world has sup
piled fuel for the camp. We boseoch all these
to grant US their attention. their countenance,
and their assistance, while we labor in THAR
own cause. But most Of all, we appeal to the
piety ofihe Christian. while we beg his prayers,
his services, and his aims; for the causo OF his

youth Of ordinary appearance, with something
singular in his gait and eccentricaly dressed

his his head was a course straw hat, beglrt
with wide ribbon, and gathered up before
with huge bow, and TO crown all two large
brass rings dangIed in his ears!
His singular manners and sentiments had in
a good degree insulated him from the society
of the world, and he spent the principal part ol
his time in secusion, but no one was sufficient

that he had long stood tug with crazy gen.

in his discourse; and seemed to be a gentle
