Ranks and Bank Dividends.

We copy the following remarks from the
Money article Of the Portland Advertiser
published on Monday:
We have TO notice the past week The
failure OF the Ellsworth Bank, aud there
are rumoIs of Others al the Eastward sha.
king in the wind. We hope these rumo:s
have no foundation in truth. TheSe,dificul.
ties remind Us Of what we intended 10 say
in our last in relation 10 the management OF
the banking institutions OF our State. As n
general thing, we have no doubt these in
stilu,ions are properly managed, in accor-
dance with the spiri, and meaning OF their
charters; but in very many cases but little
attention is paid to the requirements Of the
law, and the corporation Ia bu, little better
than the Jstr broker OF Chatham Street, or
the worst note shaver OF Wall or State street
We are warranted in these remarks by The
facts daily occurring. Within the past two
weeks very many Of the banks in this State
have elected their board of directors and
declared their semi,annual dividends. In
many instances we find that amOsg the
Bangor, Bath and other eastern banks, TO.
ether with two Of the Portland Banks, a
dividend OF per cent. has been declared
for the last stx months. Now we pretend
10 know enough Of banking to be sure that
no bank can legitimately pay five per cent
semi.annually, aud the usual expenses of
the institution, without ,ranSgressing the
law and taking illegal rates Of interest.
Many of,nese institutions aIe 10 DO found
with no surplus OH hand, and ye, they jump
to dividend Of 5 per cent. for six months,
making 10 per cent. annually. And wha'
is the resul,t Why, ii,hey meet with a
loss OF few thousand dollars. they will
as in the case Of the Ellsworth Bank, fail
and the public suffer from the mismanage
ment. We repeat, that no bank doing
busiaess in this, state can, without viola
ting our banking laws, earn Ten per cent
on its capital, over and above the necessary
expenses 10 carry OH It's business. Wespeal
plainly on this matter. The banking credi
OF our State has heretofore ranked high
and we cannot guard it TOO carefully. lie

dence. The weak attempt 10 serve two
masters, to reconcile devotion 20 tho consti.
tntion with submission to abolitionism-an
attempt to which he was persuaded by the
suggestions Of undying ambition-has placed
him with these illustrious apostates, IN the
limbo Of lost and disbouored politicians:
Having disposed OF General Cass, the En-
quirer goes TO praise the new here OF the
South, the Illinois traitor Douglass. Hear
il: -,
TT Is refreshing, in contrast with this
spectacle of weakness and duplicity, to con-
template the manly and fearless conrse OF
Senator Douglass. IL IS his fortune, us 1t
has been before, to encounter more vehement
and yiudictive expression oil popular IN
diguation, but, with courage US rare in
, these days rs il is admirable, he stands erect
nnder the peltings OF the storm, and hurls
defiance in the teeth Of the mad and
hooting mob. He does not shrink from
the responsibility Of faithful discharge oil
duty"
When Douglass il reduced to the rind, u
the nullifers will suddenly recolect that he
too, "roared me as gently as sucking dove"
and endeavered, in his Chicago speech, to
palliate his repeal Of the missouri Cempro.
mise by saying that it was because It guar.
anteed slavery south Of SO deg. 40 min, and
doughaced Douglass when broken down the
unseryiceable to the nuillifeTs, will be told
that, "at any rate, he cannot expect the
South to recollect only the brave words
which he uttered in Washington. and to take
for naught the treacherous recantation OF
Chicago. "-N Haren CourGni.

Another year, crowned with mercy and

We arc still in the enjoyment Of civil and 70.
