thorough and efficient system of univer-
sal education. In speaking Of the pub
lie schools Of his own native city, Dos
ton, where he received in childhood his
earliest education, his feelings were ex-
cited to ardent yet tender earnestness--
and the wellmerited compliment bestow-
ed upon his .mother city and her schools,
which are confessedy the best in the
country, came warm from a generous
and grateful hear.-It was true, and
manly, and eloquent. We conclude this
hasty notice Of MIR. FARLEy's Lectures
by expressing our desire TO see them
printed, that the public may derive that
benefit from them which they are so well
calculated to impart.

| The CURRENCY.-The Washington
Globe contains an article, in which are
given some important statements Of va
rious commercial movements, and also ol
the amount Of circulation, discounts, SC
of the banks Of the country, nt different
periods, derived from reports in the
Treasury Department. The article is
Of too great length to admit of our copy
ing it at present. A part Of these state
ments have been already before the pub
lie and part are now for the first time
published Bos. Pat.
The increase Of discounts Of all the
banks Of the union from Jan. 1885, Ia
Jan. 1886, is stated at ov~r ninety mil
lions, viz. from 1865, 1863, 1884, to 457, :
506,08O. The increase Of capital in the
mean time is stated at about twenty mil
lions and Of circulation near forty mil
lions.
From Dec. 1884 to the July following,
the deposite banks embracing about Il
fifth part Of the banking capital Of the
country or from forty to fifty millions, in.
creased their discounts from S79,4 o.
1876, to lO8 ,433 ,O4l, being an increase
in about six months Of twenty nine mil
lions by the deposite banks alone, and in
all the banks about seventy millions,
making The whole discounts in July last
S5o7 100000. At this time the specie
circular was issued. Notwithstanding
this order and the deposite law, the dis
counts have increased in the deposie e
banks Of the west alone, eight millions
Of dollars, and the other deposite bank s
since November last have increased
their discounts more than seven millions
Of dollars, although compelled to pay
during the same period more than nine
millions to the States.
The whole increase Of specie in the
banks Of the West and Southwest is sta
ted to be only about two millions. The
specie in the deposite banks of the mid
die and eastern States has decreased by
the sum Of three and half millions, a
part Of which has gone into other banks,
and part into circulation in place of
small bills, besides IA greater amount
which has been brought by the govern
ment from foreign countries.

Why he would roar you like any "suck-
ing dove" lie must be polite, cautious

servant what his political father com
manded as a mnster-be knows full well
that the union of The South would be
fatal 10 him-hence his anxiety in his
inaugural to set Us at rest on the only
question that was certain TO unite US
but he had promised to follow the princi-
pies Of his predecessor, and as the great
principle Of the late Administration was
an utter contempt Of all pledges given to
the country, VIC had right to expect
that the copy would in this pant bear the
strongest resemblance to the orig nal.-
What then was the position Of South
Carolina? continued MI. Preston. The
new Administration had themselves de-
cided it--they came in as Jackson Ad-
minstration-they gIoried in being call
ed by the name and wearing the livery

Their aim was to prevent union here, to
keep awake sectional jealousies, to show

the other, while the little animal at the
centre ran off with the oyster.

OH THE BANKS!

One would suppose, if he were ignorant of
tho character and objects of the Van Buren,
party, and their tools throughout the country,
that there is nothing on the face Of the earth
they obhor so much as they do banks. Since
the reign Of the party,under which we include
the period Of Jacksonism, the number of
banks in the country has increased from 800
20 ol3, and the amount of capital from 145
millions to HS. Now ns they have had the
control Of almost all the States,lt would seem
necessarily to follow, that they are perfectly
sincere and honest in the clamor they make
about the banks. They have gone well on
towards trcblng the number of banks, and
somewhat in the same proportion in the in
crease Of bank capital. How much more
safe the country must be with 8I3 banks,
than it was with one national bank!-[ Poui-

SAVANNAH, April I, g p. NJ.


The court martial ordered for the trial of
Major William Gates. of the second rcgim, mt
of artillery, convened yesterday at the new
brick barracks in this city, at ten o'clock, A.
M. The following officers were present:
Brevet Brigadicr General VI. Brady Colon.
ell Cd infantry, and President of the Court.
Colonel w. Lindsay, Cd artillery.
Brevet Colonel J. B. Walbach, lst artillery.
Lieut.. Colonel J. Bankhead, Sd artillery.
Lieut.. Colonel A. Cummings, Cd infantry.
Brevet Major M. p. Lomax, Sd artillery.
Brevet Major J. Irving, 4th artillery.
Brevet Major y. +. Hunt, 5th infantry.
Captain G. s. Dranc. Cd artillery.
Captain p. II. Galt, 4th artillery.
Captain John Bradley, I'd infantry.
Captain p. Morrison, 4th infantry.
First Lieutenant w. c. De Hart, Cd regi-
ment of artillery, Judge Advocate.
The charge is general-of disgroceful aud
unofficer-like conduct. The specifications
are, neglecting 10 make a sortie, when at
tackled by body Of Indians on the 18th of
April, 1886, being in command Fort Barne-
well, Volusia; and not sending out party to
recover the bodies Of two men killed, on the
morning of that day, until the morning ofthe
10th, although their dying groans were dis
tinctly audible.
Major Gates pleaded not guilty.
The Savannah Georgian, having notes OF
the testimony, anticipates all honorable ac-
quttal.

SrEcIE.-The N. Y. Com. Advertiser of
Saturday says-Nearly the whole story is
told in the following paragraph from the Mer-
camille of his mornine:-
We learn from gentleman from Indiana,
that one of the branches Of The State Bank
Of that state, Of only 100000 capital, had,
the latter part of March, when our informant
lefl, rising Of SEVEN HUNDRED THOU
SAND DOLLARS IN SPECIE IN IT'S
VAULTS, mostly government money. So
large an amount OF specie is not wanted there,
the pressure for money continues.

New ORLEANS, April l.
The failures Of the 4th and 9th March
Herman, Briggs g. Co., Thomas Barrett 6,
Co., and Saml. Herman 8, Son, and all the
parties forming the firms preceding the first
such as Reynolds, Byrne & Co., Byrne, Mar.
shall s. Co., and Herman, Briggs & Co., viz
James NJ. Reynolds, l.. r. Marshall, and John
b. Byrne, are now and must unquestionably
terminate in total failures that is, all the prop
erty Of all the parties cannot, with any degree
of probability, pay all their engagements
Herman, Briggs & Co., with the debts of the
preceding firms, owe about 81 millions, and
show little or no balance. Thomas Barrett
d Co. owe 81 millions. Samuel Herman &
Son about millions, including all RESPONSE.
bitles. Samuel Herman, it now seems,
never was worth two hundred thousand dol
lars. Since these failures, Brandcr, McKen-
ma g. Wright, owing 81 millions; Shields,
Turner & Kenshaw, owing $50, 900; Buchan-
nan, Hogan a. Co. owing half mlllon; Bier
s. Stever, owing about $500, ,0O0-may be
added to the list; they are all connected with
up-country products, and principally in cot
ton; but as yet no great appearance Of pres
sure exists among any other classes in this
city; the shopkeepers and all kinds of dealers
In goods seem to be entirely disconnected
with all these unfortunate houses. No won
der that the traders are generally free from
embarrnssments, because they were not in
the enjoyment Of bank facilities, which were
all absorbed by those commission houses:
therefore the traders and shopkeepers feel no
Inconvenience at this great revolution among
bank credits; indeed, there never was n time
when the trading classes of this city were in
more wholesome condition, and considering
that the trade Of this city would support twice
the number now existing, it is not surprising
that those persons now in trade are well off
and prosperous.
Extract from another letter ofhc same date.
Mr.. John Hagan, sen., who is entirely dis
connected with any Of the late failures, and
who is in possession OF property within the
city OF immense value, has come forward TO
the assistance Of his nephews, who are in the
firms Of Buchanan, Hngan e. Co., and TIacan,
Ncvlns a. Co. His name and assistance
will. in consequence, sustain those two
houses from any injury in their business, and
place them on high ground of credit and
means.

holding a spear. 1t is believed by these
gentlemen that all three Of the bodies
may be removed from their position in
perfect state--though the dog, beiag in
a laying posture upon fiat rock, it will
undoubtedly be a difficult task to remove
il uninjured. The human bodies appe ar
TO be those Of men-probabiy hunters
Their clothing can hardly be disting uish-
ed-but still it is evident that two were
in u measure turned into stone. They
are described thus: One sitting with the
head leaned rs il were against project
ing rock, and the other standing, with a
spear balanced in his hand, as though
he was surprised, and had just started
on a quick walk. The dog lies as if
crouched in terror, or about to make n
spring-but the feature or body, are not
distinct enough to determine which posi-
tion.
This wonderful formation cannot be
accounted for in any other way than that
these persons were buried by some terri
BILE convulsion of nature. The cave in
which they were found is full l25 feet
into the mountain, and is situated about
a mile and half beyond what is called
Mammoth Grotto, in direct line. The
entrance to the place is difficult, and it
is thought that it never was before at
tempted at all. At the foot Of the en-
trance ofthe cave is considerable brook
of water, which appears to gather from
all parts Of it, There is also n valley
thence to the river. The gentlemen who
have made this interesting discovery are
making active preparations TO bring away
the bodies, which they intend TO have
forwarded to New York.
