Brewer, the Suffolk Bank defautor. is, in one
respect, like unto st. Paul--he is in bonds. The
bail was too heavy for him, and hs was held
to appear at the Municipal Court on Monday
IL is supposed to be all up with him. That the
bank has lost immensely - now understood on all
hands. 1t has reserved fund, however, of some

of Messrs. Brewer and Rand Nobody seems to care
a straw about the banks loss. 1t is an odiou5 in
sutton in the eyes Of almost every man not mmedi
atey interested in the maintenance of the system OF
which it is the body, the soul, and tho mind. 1t Is
undeniable that the bank has benefited the whole
community, through its rigorous enforcement Of its
SYSTEM but it is equally undeniable that the High

his rascality; but he was Spectator on the most
extensive scale, operating to the extent Of three
quarters of million Of dollars in one case. He
hasn't the money--that's gone. Who has it? Who
tell? 1t has been lost in desperate coups to
trieve fortune. AS well might one look for the
leaves that fell fifty years ago, as for the money
to which Rand helped himself. He no doubt, has
something handsome in his possession; but it will
be found greatly behind the summa totals of the
banks loss
During Brewers examination there was constant
squabblng going on between the Court and Mr..
Hallett, Brewers senior counsel. They snapped
and snared at one another in a most charmngly
captivating manner. Time was when both gentle

respectable magistrate, who thinks small beer Of
