The extension of Bank facilities by tho stat.
banks, was not only naturally induced by the meas
ures of the administration, but was expressly en-
Outraged dy it, as appears by the following instruc
ton of the Treasury Department TO the pet banks
Z" The deposits Of the public money aoM enable
y0u to afford INCREASED IA CILITIEs THE COM
MERcIAL AND OTHER CLASSES OF THE COMMUNITY
and the department anticipates from you the adop-
ton Of such a course respecting your accommoda-
tions as soW prOoe acceptable to the people,, and
safe to the Government.
The following letter from the pet bank at Bur-
ngton in this State, asking for deposits, dis
closes the principle on which the extension of the
bank accommodations encouraged by the Trea-
sury, and the manner in which it was carried out
by the banks;
Burlington, January IS, 1886.
s'Being located in the same place where branch
of the United States Bank was established, and as
we are deposte bank, where the branch has dis
continued its operations, the public seem to expect
that we would at once afford the same facilities and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS they enjoyed when the branch
was doing business. There has been, on the part
of our directors, desire to meet this expectation
and the consequence has been that very sensible
change has taken place, politically, in favor of the
Government and as it is our desire to strengthen
these sentiments, feel it is mporantto afford to
our farmers and mechanics, tho coming spring,
pretty e1tensiUe accommodations, and especially
about the time Of tho aoool clip"
That the Executive knew Of, and consented to,
the issues Of the deposite banks appears from
the fact that by the contracts between those banks
and the Treasury Department, it to he furnish
ed with weekly statement of their condition
Such statement was furnished, and their ruinous
career of course known TO the Executive. They
were not restrained but continued to enlarge their
operations to g strengtben the sentiments of the
people in favor of the government.
What gigantic scheme, 10 corrupt the people
with their own money How soon exploded in
universal bankruptcy.

Now mark tn commencement and progress of
speculation. The bank of the U. S. was vetoed in
July 1882 In that year the sales of the public land
amounted to about three millions. They arose the
next year to about fpe millions the next to sin
the next to fourteen and three quarters, and the
next to TWENTY-FOUR MILLIONS !!

The paper (ths ProsPec,u, ss,s) is TO be de-

and to the maintenance and propagation Of
the distinctive tenets and Institutions Of the

THIS proposition has probably grown out Of
the recent schism in that Church, the Te!e-
