ucuiar he opinion of every publisher at
all acquainted with his business would he "a
the same effect. With the insertion of hi.
letter we shall close this subject with the fol-
lowing query; and all we have to request Of
the Advocate is, that he will give prompt
and decisive answer. Has the state sustain
ed any damage by reason of our failing to
complete the contractor printing the Revised
Laws-It so, in what manner? An answer
10 this, with the Information we have furnish
ed, will put to rest all further discussion IN
on the subject.
ST.. LOUIS, Oct. 2, 1888.
Gentlemen-Your note of Yesterday is be-
liore US In repk, we have to state that, las
we have always nnderstood> contracts tor
printing book work are considered fulfilled
when the sheets have been delivered to the
ohder' This is the understanding OF the
trade. II does sometimes happen, from in
ATTENTION Oh the pressman, or of the fore,
man. who counts the paper, that sufficient
number OF copies of each form are not prin-
ted. As the publisher could have NO
adequate motive for thus failing in his
contract, 1t is generally regarded rather as
his misfortune than his fault-inasmuch as
he is at the trouble aud expense of setting
up he type for such form, and printing the
requisite number of copies. m
Respectfully, your obt seryt's! 8

Public DEposIrs The Globe of 2lst ult.
states, "upon authority" that the deposits
of the public money will be changed from
the Bank Of the United States to the State
Banks as soon as the necessary arrange
ments can be made for that purpose. Such
the Globe believes, can be
effected in Baltimore, Philadelphia, New
York and Boston by the LIST of October; and
accordingly that day was named for CONS
mencing the transfer. Preparatory to this
measure, Mr.. Duane, secretary of the treas
ury, who, with secretaries Cass and McLane.
Is understood to have opposed the removal.
has been removed Tor has resigned-the
Globe does not say which) and Mr.. Taney.
the attorney general, put in his place. The
reasons which Influenced the mind of the
president in directing the transfer, are given
at large in an article commencing on the frs.
page OF this paper. Those reasons are found.
principally, in the conduct of,he Bank in ,e-
ia'ion to the payment of the three per CENTS
the treasury draft on the French government.
and the use it has made of the funds Of tho
Bank to influence public opinion, corrupt the
press and control elections.
The manner in which the transfer is to be
effected is given in the Globe as follows,
1t is contemplated, we understand, NOT to-
remove, at once, the whole of the public mo-.
ney, now on deposit in the Bank Of the Uni-
ted States, but to suffer it to remain there I'M.
til it shall be gradually withdrawn, by the
usual operations of the government. And
this plan is adopted in ordes to prevent any
necessity, on the part of the Bank Of thes
United States, for pressing upon the CONNER
cial community; and to enable it to aHosd, IS
1T think proper, the usual facilities to
merchants. 1t is believed, that by this
means the change need not produce any in
convenience to the commercial community,
and that circumstances viii not require a
sudden and heavy call on the Bank Of tho
United States SO as to occasion embarrass-

The Hon. ia. ADAMS has been nomina.
ted candidate for governor Of Matsachu-
se,ts by the antimasonic party, and has ac-
cepted the nomination. Many OF Mr.. AIS
friends regret that he has taken such
course. The antimasonic party are not
strong enough to elect him; and unless the
influence of his personal character and tai
