probably 1900 shares have been picked up for Ans
terdam account. A more desperate speculation can
scarcely be imagined, and yet the shareholders in
Amsterdam, understand are buying all the stock
they can find, with the insane idea Of realizing
large sum from the assets or OF filling up the capi-
tai and putting the Bank in active operation As
have before noticed, very extensive meeting Of
observation-disclosures as well shareholders, was held
at Amsterdam, at which figured Mr. Schwab, well
known in Wall.st He gave the meeting most
flaming account of the immense value Of the Char
ter of this defuncs institution, and advised that the
capital be filled up and banking operations resumed.
| So seductive was his tloquence, that the siali
burghers Of Amsterdam were tempted to pour gaia
their guilders into that gulf which has already swl
| lowed so many millions. And when they realize
then new loss, they will, doubtless, abuse the Anne
rcans as swiIders, when, in fact the loss is but the
Iesul! of their own folly.
