LETTER FROM THE CAPITAL.

APRIL LIST. 1848.
The House, yesterday, passed the Bill extend
ing the charter of the F. M. Bank of Michigan
for ten years. The old charter expires Dec '49
The Bill has extraordinary guards thrown round
it. 1t limits the issues to the amount of CAPT
tai stock, paid in cash, and requires two humid
red thousand dollars of additional capital to be
paid in, which will make Its capital stock in all
six-hundred thousand dollars. All the Bills
which the Bank is allowed to issue after Dec.
1919, are to pass through the hands ofthe State
Treasurer, and be countersigned and register
ed by that officer. The directors and stock
holders of the Bank are mace individually la
BILE and responsible for the payment of their
bills and if the Bank fails, the assets are to be
used first to pay the bili-holders. All bills not
countersigned and registered, are to be Destroy
ed in the presence of the State Treasurer
The Treasurer is to examine the Bank semi
yearly, and as much oftener as he pleases.-
The condition of the Bank is to be published
A penalty of fine and Imprisonment is imposed
upon the officers of the Band for false reports.
It pays tax of one per cent, on its capital stock,
to the State. The charter is repealable at any
time by majority of the Legislature. Ilwo'd
seem that the Legislature bad done its duty in
regard to protecting the public in this matter.
If the Bank should fail, and the bill holders SUI
fer loss, j for one, would say, let Judge Lynch
take exclusive and unrestraiued jurisdiction of
the case.
The Bill for funding the outstanding Internal
Improvement warrants of tee State has become
law. An amendatory act has just passed the
House, making all Internal Improvement war
rants receivable for primary School Lands
This will make such warrants at par, or nearly

"This is the last of Earth-I am content"
"The old man eloquent" closed his long and
eventful life, with perhaps the most eloquent
expression he ever uttered. These were the
last words of John Quincy Adams "This is
the last of earth-I am content" For mo-
n,ept after he was stricken in the midst OF MS
nnblic Iabors, the veil was removed from his
eves and for tic ..,ae ne looked upon the
world Ia, sad filled with his name. 1t was fa-
d.sg from his vision, it was receding from his
touch with all its splendors, with its pageants
its palaces and its splendid rewards; 1t was
nothing. He saw darkness brooding over it
enfoid it in its eternal gloom, and it was gone
forever. 1t was the last of Earth.-Nor did
this great man stretch forth his hand to brush
away the thickning dimness from his brow -
neither sought he to detain the pageant, nor
chung he to the raiments offleeting nature. He
was content. He bad seen all of earth with
his own eyes. He had seen the joys of an in
noornt boy hood, the glories of great manhood
and the splendors of a brilliant and revered old
age. And when darkness like curtain came
down from the skies, he was content. There
was nothing left in the fulness of time to tempt
him to remain longer. nor anything in eternity
to make him dread going thither.
Well may it be exclaimed, in contemplating
an end like this, 6: Let me die the death of the
righteous, and let my last end be like his

FIRE AND DEATH in NEW YORK.

New York, April 8, 1888.
The extensive Sugar Refinery Of Dennis and
Harris was entirely consumed by fire this NOR
ming.
In the progress of the fire some kind of gas
was generated from the various ingredients

At this time the fire was sixty feet in rear
of the wall
Two men, Gen. Keer. Asst. Engineer, and
Henry Furgiss Asst. Foreman of Engine Co.
