Mr. F. W. Edmonds, late Cashier of the Mechanics
Bank, has published pamphlet, defending himself
from the charges brought against him by Mr.. Burke,
the Assistant Cashier and which produced his resigoa
ton as Cashier. We have not spsce to-day for full
abstract of this defense Mr.. Edmonds in general
tern denies the. truth Of all the charges brought
sgaps him. and attributes his removal from the Bank
to the jealousy of Mr. Knapp and the desire of Mr..
Burke TO obtain the Cashenhip. In regard 10 the
charge of using Bank funds for his own advantage,
such the small pay ments for interest," commissions,
&C.. which came into his drawer, Mr.. EdmoDds says:
"My babit every once in awhile TO pass the ag-
gregate Of those payments 10 me 10 the interest ac-
count and thus for the first time, would they appear
in the books of the bank. Meantime, while tlese
sums collecting in my drawer, the President and
mys self in the habit of paying from tha. money
various little expenses of the bank, which we must
lay, and which II was nerer expected 20 be brou5h.
before the Board. Thus, those email expenses never
appeared upon the books OF The bank at ALL Tor no
account was ever kept OF them. 10 have kept an
account of them and of the various small which
were paid into my drawer, would have rendered the
employ ment OF additional clerk necessary, at an
experse reary great the aggregate Of those sums

btrlain's Office"
He Gays the Bank had frequently o., 600, 600 on de-
posi,e from the City without interet, for several
months and ad6s:
Hith the appreciation Of your PresideHt, l made
contributors TO various political parties, and paid
them of that drawer. The Office of Cbambv bvriain,
like all he other City offices, was from time 70 time
assessed by the dominant party for expenses OF cleo
tops and paid the assessments out of that drawer.
1--WE did Lot want to bring those matters before the
Il ard because we thought it most advisable that
they should have it in their power 20 say they had not
sanci Toned il and knew not of IL And for the same
reason did not deem il best to keep an aecoun. OF
those payments. was aware the danger there was
10 me from this course, but / relied upon the Presi-
dent 10 protect me in measures which were adopted
with tis sanction.
Therefore it is that cannot now give a particu-
lar account Of thoee payments, and therefore II was
that when the charges we're preferred against by
The Assistant Cashier and found that be was setting

determined upon, and saw no escape and became
alarmed.
