FRIEND CLARKE Sir; Permit me through the
medium OF your paper, to cali the attention of its
readers to meeting, to be held in Van Buren,,
on Sabbath the 9TH of February, at candle-ghting
Tor the purpose of organizing County BIBLE
SOCIETY. Having been engaged for the last two
years IN the circulation of the sacred Scripture
an opportunity has been afforded me of becoming
to some extent acquainted with the wants of the
people. of this country-the great destitulion and
demand for the Word of Life the impossibiIity of
supplying this vast and needy field by individual
effort, and the importance of having deposite of
the Bible at point which like Van Buren, con.
centrates the trade Of so many counties, are con-
sideraiIons which seem to justify action upon a
subject OF so much importance. i
Copies of proposed Constitution for the Craw
ford County Bible Society can be seen by ca ling
upon Messrs. E. B. Bishop, d. c. Williams. ]. Fl.
Roberts and DR.. DbreIl at Van Buren, and Messrs.
w. A. Jackson and J. F. Wheeler at Fort Smith.
% Friends of the Bibe.-let US come together re-
gardless OF sectional feeling and by our united
efforts place on foot an Institution that will with
the blessing of God make good citizens in this
world and guide thousands Of immortal beings to
happiness in the world to come 'A7 p ,3se.o 50

IMMENSE DEFALCATION IN
THE BANK OF NILSSON RI.

"a - Ia VI NlJSco ~ III
A portion of the community were
yesterday evening, thrown into great
excitement by the discovery of an as.
founding abstraction of the funds of
the Bank of the State of Missouri.
The disclosures were made in the fol-
lowing manner, as we learn from Off
GERS of the Bank:
Some year or so ago, resolution
was passed by the Directors, TO conn,
all the funds of the Bank, and such as
was not needed for immediate use was
put in bags, sealed and marked with
the amount, and the names of the Di.
rectors who counted it. The bags
were then placed in boxes, which were
also sealed and marked with the amour,
and names of the Directors. The
counting commenced in February, and
terminated somewhere in March.
Among the funds of the Bank, was q
large amount of foreign gold, chiefly
thaIers, sovereIgns and ten guilder pie
ccs, which was counted and laid away
with view TO have il recoined.
On Friday last it became necessary
for the Paying Teller, owing TO some
temporary absence of the necessary
keys, TO resortto the gold to pay large
draft held by Mcssrs Page 81 Bacon
A box, purporting TO contain two bags,
each containing one thousand ten tha-
Ter pieces, and another box purporling
10 contain four bags of one thousand
sovereigns each were turned over in
payment. On opening the boxes, one
of the bags of ten lhaIers was missing.
and also one Of the bags Of sovereigns,
amounting in all to $l2,65O This led
TO further examination yesterday, by
the President and Directors; and in ex-
aiming the boxes of foreign gold, from
one TO thirty-,hrec, it was discovered
that there was deficiency Of one hun
dred and tDenty thousand and Seuen
hundred dollars. Ii was also discover.
cd that some of the boxes had been
opened since the date of the counting
and resealed. The wax was different
and the impression very clumsy and
apparently hastily done. AS yet nc
count has been made of the American
gold, or of the silver in the Bank, but
il is believed that the purpose of the
perpetrator was best subserved by Ia
king the foreign gold-that being a de
scription of coin which was bu, seldom
touched for any purpose.
Suspicion Immediately rested .upor
Nathaniel Childs, Jr., who until few
weeks since, held the position of Pay
ing Teller, which he then resigned
He was sent for, and went TO the banl
but could give no explanation Of TIT
deficit 1t seems that he had been en-
trusted, during the counting of tn
money by the Directors, with tn
bringing of the boxes from the vault t
the Cashiers room, and of returnin,
them to the vault, and in some case
with counting and affixing the seals
and one or both the boxes which wer
first discovered TO be deficient, had hi
private mark on them. 1t seems ;hs
there are TOO sets of keys to the vaul
one keep, by the Cashier, and the olhe
by the Paying Teller, but the Cashio

entertain the belief that the deficit is of

ment of the Bank, and that to cover nm
these deficits, the same foreign pold
was counted over several times. This
Is The only solution that can now be
gwen, but we must wait for further de.
velopments. A severe blow has been
given TO the Bank, but il is not such an
one as will effect its soIvency or credit
II has still abundant means to NEE, its
liabilities.
