SOMETHING NEw.-A Christian Bank is a
new thing under the sun, yet such thing has
existed, and in Chicago. The peculiar appella-
ton of the institution, however, is the Spiritu-
al Bank, of Chicago" But they could not stand
such bundle of strange contradictions long,
not even in the prairie city: so one day last
week the legal authorities closed the vaults and
stopped redemptions, which latter, it seems to
us, was not very spiritual conduct. The result
is that the bills are now refused by the spirit
dealers and everybody else. The President of
the Bank, and divers mediums connected there
with, were arrested by the Sheriff, the progress,
of which proceeding was attended with some in
cdents which are related in the Chicago Demo-
Graf:
"When the Sheriff proceeded to arrest Seth
Paine, ESQ.,, of the Bank of Chicago, on We'd
nesday, he found him engaged in writing an ar
ticle fer the next Christian Banker. lie show
ed Mr.. p. his warrant to take his body. Seth
made novel and characteristic resistance. He
proceeded as fast as he could to reduce himself
TO the condition of our first parents, before they
sewed the fig leaves for aporns, and had actual
" commenced vigorous operations upon his
neither integuments, when Sheriff Bradley seiz-
him and put stop to further proceedings in
that direction. Paine evidently thought If he
could only reduce himself to a state of nature,
the Sheriff would not have the audacity to take
him through the public streets.
"Having refused to walk to the Jail, 1t was
found necessary TO carry him bodily, which was
very quietly DONE"
