In our remarks concerning the quarterly report pub
shed by the Comptroller Of this State we stated that
the New York State Stock Security Bank had not made
quarterly report although the law applied to the ndi-
vidual banker well to all the banks in this State
n few days ago. the owner of the above bank having
called at our office business, mentioned to u.s. In the
course Of that wrong In our infer
cnce to his being bound to make quarterly report
and that he did not make for the that the
law OF April 1873 in pursuance whereof quarterly re.
ports are made does not require any report what
from the Individual banker that he had argued the case
over and over again for the last eight years. that no
longer ago than last February he wrote letter to Mir
C. Flagg on the subject; that the Comptroller was no
doubt aware that the individual was not bound to
report had been otherwise it would been his
duty to point out, In special manner the authority
under which quarterly report might be required from
the individual banker The letter referred to we give
oew. 1t appears by this that tho question has been
previously disposed Of apparently to the satisfaction of
both parties The free banking law is defective upon
this point and the difficulty should be remedied at once'
as there Is every probability Of rapid increase in the
number OF individual bankers in this State. They
report quarterly with exception although IL Is op-
tional with them to do not. as tn ey please.

1t ought to be presumed that in an election
like that of last Monday all parties would bring
out their best and purest, men. All parties
probably did so. Victory must, therefore,
be more gratifying to the successful party.

test the character of each party in the contest.
