Boston Advertiser has been alarmed in consequence
ola loan of the school, aud the sinking funds OF the
State, 10 the city of Portland to the amount OF 1917
600. and the Worcester Transcript is absolutely
horrrfed, aud all because the money is invested
away down East, where Massachusetts hunkers
cannot hire it six per shave notes for at
two per cent month";
The Boston Post contains the following correct
statement in regaad to the loan.
We have made some inquiry, and find that the
treasurer has invested, under the direction OF the
governor and council since July last, Sf272,OOO, as
(ollows:-$l67, 900 in bonds of the city oPortand,
running twenty years, with coupons OF interest at
tached semiannudlly at per cent and $l05,O0O
in the scrip of our state, authorized by acts OF
the legislature for different purposes.
Now it is well known to the Advertiser, and eve-
nv one else, that iu the Investment of the different
funds amounting to nearly two and half muittanS,
the proper course is TO invest where there is no
question to the security, where you can get your
six per cent, semiannualy, and without loss Of
interest, MneIe tile Investment may De peT1ld-
nent.
We understand that an order has been on file in
the treasurers Office from the governor and council
tor long time, authorizing him to loan these funds
OF any city, town, county in the commonwealth,
for not less than two years, six per cent, aud it
is generally known that these funds TO be loaned
this kind of security: but there has been but one
application during thepast gear, and that application
was made last week, for only S3500. Why is it?
We answer, because towns and cities in this
monweah hire their money for less than six per
cent; they obtain all the money they want at
f'e pera cent generally, and aohen the nUestme Of
last August ,oas made in Poland scrip, the ely Of
Boston cas getting all che money II lcanted its
scrip running ten gears at tioe per cent We think it
will be plainly enough seen why the government have
invested in this scrip at sir per cent, instead of in
vesng in similar class Of security at fge per
The yearly difference it makes to the income of
these funds is Sl670, and this is no small item, as

GROWTH OF THEEsUNITED SrATEs.-The
Kolnische Zatupg al Sept. 81, has a leader on the
progress of this country, in which the utmost adm.
ration is expressed for the enterprise, energy and
activity of the Yankee who for those Qualities are
admitted to be unequalled in history. 'Nowherc in
the word,'' says the writer, ''does the blood so
swiftly rush through the veins, nowhere does lie
flow in full "A stream, among the citizens Of
the United States. 1t is true that this great natural
power exhibits here and there a wdness and alb

denee is Joined with the youthful eXnberance Of the
American. John Bull, whose most cunning locks he
opens whose swiitest vessels he out sails regards

The article then reviews the progress of the Uuited
States in population, imports and exports, post roads
cauals, libraries, railroads, &c, using the tables
given by Mr. Webrler in his late Fourth of July
= Grafton at Washington. After commenting ON these
at some length he says; 'the gigantic develops

first it devoted iseftl the establishment OF polti-
cal constitutions, and in this displayed a wonder

which it entered was that of exchanges and com
merce and the acquisition of material power.
Whoever with the jaundiced Thomas Carlyle
should insist on Regarding the Americans with
contempt or pity, because they have not pro-
duced so.called heroes of soul, poets, pbiloso-
pliers, artists, &c, would be greatly in the wrong
They have not had time for it. But the day will
come when they will also gather laurels on the
noble paths of human activity.
The editor does not add that the great energy
and force for which he gives US credit would be
manifested by other nations had they only as free
chance. 1t is liberty and political equality
which have done such things for America, and
would do the same for Germans if it were only
permitted But the good lime will come even for
them.--.N Y Sua.

RAILWAY TRAVELINGc AND RAILWAY Or
FIcIALs.-The following is from the New York
Times, and refers to subject quite interesting to
the trvceling community. The evil complained of
is not unknown even here. Within "A not very ex-
tended circle OF railway travelling, taking this city as
the centre, we have met with conductors-one or
two only,-whose boorsh demeanor was altogether
unlike that which should characterize the behavior
of railway officials towards their passengers. The
Times says:
'In one very important particular, Railway man
agement in this country is sadly deficient: mean
in the personal demeanor of conductors. These Of
fcials, as general thing, so far observation

tien Kind of insult, to be resented by churlish
replies or by none at ALL We could narrate good
many occurrences which have come to our knoyl-
edge, and which would once illustrate and prove
what say--but il is not necessary, and would
moreover, involve personal reference.
But certainly it is for the interest, and ought to
bas the pleasure of Railway Companies, to enioin
and enforce ample courtesy the part OF those
in their employ, TO all who made ride upon their
roads. 1t may involve some trouble, and OCCASION
ally some annoyance--but it should be done, never
theless. 1t is done abroad, and this single feature,
the readiness of railway officers to aid the traveller
in any way they cam does much to make travelling
there more agreeable than in the United States.

with scarcely hint at their flight from the land of
their fathers, to the country of which he is the rep

The Times rays further:
