SEpTEMBER.-The 10th, 18th and
10Th days of September are proud
epochs IN the history of our republic
1t was on the first named of these days
that, in the year 1912, the battle of
Lake Erie was fought. In which victo-
ry perched upon our national standard
and gave to Immortality the name Of
a Perry, than whom we cannot figure
a more beautiful Illustration of the
character of a naval hero. On the
nth day of September, 1914, it was
that the British squadron on Lake
Champlain, bearing force of95 guns,
attacked and conquered by that Of
the Americans under Commodore
McDonough, in the harbor of Platts-
burg, Notwithstanding the great inferi-
ority on the par of the latterln point OF
metal, their force being only Sc guns.
On the 18th day of September, 1914,
also Sir George Provost with $4,000
men was repulsed by Gen Macomb
with 1900 American regulars and 5000
militia, in assault upon the forts at

JUSTICE.

Justice is one Of the immutable princi-
plies of moral government and guidance.
In all our intercourse with the world il is
an infalible rule by which we may square
our actions, and prove their correctness
by which we may Judge Of the conduct of
others, and decide on its merits, If we be
just we are sure to be honest, love truth,
and act tighteously, The reputation of
others will be safe in our hands, and the
envenomed shafts of slander will be caught
and hurled back against the fiend who
sends them, with redoubled force. In es-
tlmating the character of men and things,
we will discard selfshness, and be ready
to make due allowance for the defects Of
nature, and the influence which adverse
circumstances may have produced. The
just man is alwaysa good man. In apub-
lie capacity he never swerves from duty.
however painful nor forsakes his post for
pleasure; however aIluring. By the exer4
else of this noble attribute, of moral and
mental nature, he feels the proper mea
sure of his own and others duty the real
merit Of his own and others actions. II
teaches him when to be benevolent, how
to be kind. and where to be charitable, il
teaches him to be truly anxious. and assi-
duously careful to avoid wounding the fee
lings of his fellow, beings on every occa-
sion; and it teaches him to exercise the
most scrupulous attention respecting eve
ry statement which he receives as true,
and not to receive it as such until he is
thoroughly satisfied it Is so. Justice will
not deny TO ehemies the praise to which
they are entitled, NOR to friends the Gen.
sure which their conducts merit. 1t
guards with no less tenacity the rights of
others than our own. 1t is the golden rule
of our SAVIOR, s'do unto others as you
would that they should do unto you.

QUESTION l. What equivalent do the
Banks giDe for the privileges and cmolu-
mcnts they receite?
ANSWER. According to Besancon's An
banks in Mississippi is twenty-four. The
nominal capital of which is $j2,5l2, 700,
but the actual capital paid in is not near
that much. Supposihg the banks to issue
only $s3 to 81, the amount would be $322.-
100000. The interest on this amount of
money at 5 per cent per annum, is $l6,-
l2S,000 The male population of this
state, over twenty-one, is about $4,000;
of this number it is estimated that about
1000 are engaged in mixing liquor, $50 in
making paper money, and about 1000 en-
gagged in the laudable occupation Of plead
ing law, expounding the scriptures, max
ing pills, and teaching the "young idea how
to Shoot" to say nothing about those en-
gagged in the mercantile business. The
aggregate amount of idlers then may be
set down at 3,640 souls, which, subtracted
from the $4,000 will leave 3l,360 who
are supposed to be engaged in agriculture
and the mechanic arts. Now, the inter-
est of sixteen millions must be paid. Who
pays it? Why, the 81 800 persons, inclu-
ding the merchants, whose number Is very
respectable. If this be a fact, which none
can gansay, each individual is taxed near
$3.50 per annum as his share of the inte-
rest. (srThe people then give the banks
upwards of sixteen millions of dollars
yearly for the "privleges and emoluments
they receive"
Ifany mistake in the above estimate
has been, made, it is hoped that some
sharpsighted politician will discover the
error, and correct it, and show that the
conclusion is false that ono must arrive at
who views the subject in that light. II is
believed, however, that rigid scrutiny
into the matter will develope facts still
more astonishing, and that the amount
; ;extorted, yearly, from the people, by the
banks, really double that given above
One half the evils that follow IN their
train, have not been told "Much yet re-
mains unsung.'
QUESTION 2. DO the Banks make mo
ncy?
ANSWER. They make money like the
faro banks. DO they benefit The people?
Let the ycomanry Of the country, from
the Sherifr's hands aud prison doors an
swer this question. 1t can be said with
strict regard for truth, that 9communlty
oflaboring people have never been bene-
fitted by the policy Of banking. They
have. on the contrary, been compelled to
support the persons engaged in managing
them. and, at the same time, hthey touch
cd their vic deception, been compelled to
pay an oncrous amount o. money I:@n.Sf,T, sCr inc
