THE LOSSES.


1t has been stated that the building itself is
uninsured. This is too true, and the loss will
be terrible to those propretors who hold
large number of shares. Among them may
be mentioned the Kemble family, the family,
of the late Mr.. Harris, Mr.. Surman, Mr.. Rob-
inson, Mr.. Thomas Greve, and others. The
only insurances known to exist in connection
with the building are two---one of $1,000 up
on portion of the proprietors, and another of
900, effected by Mr.. Anderson, when he
entered upon the occupation Of the theatre for
three months, which insura, ;e would have ex-
pired on Saturday next. sgszo
Among the sufferers by the calamity is Mr..
Payne, the proprietor of the refreshmentr de-
oartment of the Royal Italian Opera. He had
contracted to furnish the supper at the Bal
Masque. Everything in the shape of glass
and plate which he had in the theatre is de-
stroyed, besides large quantity of surplus
wine. Mrs P narrowly escaped with the
money taken during the evening-upwards of
e2OO. There had been a large sum received
at the doors; 9200 for admission and 600 for
balcony seats were taken. All this and other
cash was got out of the theatre early, and de-
posted in a place of safety. " @ "

AN INCIDENT.

In Princes place, the courtyard by which
Her Majesty entered the house, one attempt
at salvage was successful. The properties
appertaining to the Wizards tricks were in an
apartment very near the stage door, and these
were in great part saved. A small quantity
of furniture belonging to Mr. Costa, including
his private piano. was also rescued. While
engaging in this duty the police were surprised
at the unexpected appearance of man at one
Of the windows overlooking the court yard.
He had been asleep, and not even the raging ol
the fire in his close vicinity, nor the shouts OF
the people had sufficed to awake him, until the
room became full of smoke and breathing diff
fcult. A ladder was brought, and he was res
cued from the perilous position on which he
must have lain for an hour when the flames
broke into the apartment.

THE PROPERTY DESTROYED.

The value of the property destroyed is some
thing fabulous. An approximate estimate may
be formed from the fact that in producing the
several operas contained In the repertoire of the
theatre, when under the management of Mr..
Delafield, no less than 100000 were expended,
of which the four operas, the P'opbete the HN-
o,senotes L,ecrezia Borgia and La Dolnad del La

THE BANKING SYSTEM OF LOUISIANA.
The Bank of Louisana,--No. 8.

On the fourth of March, 1887, although there was
no telegraph to give the intelligence in an hour from
Maine to Texas, the banking house of the Josephs
in New York, failed. On the same day in this city
several heavy commercial firms suspended payment
which was followed through that month and April by
every class and kind of merchants traders, dealers,
land SPECTATORS shnplaster manufacturers until the
month of May when the banks one and all Except
ing the Merchants Bank here in this city, and the
Bank OF MOBILIZE through the union suspended pay
n,ents in "specc." Now, was this not splendid
conglomcmtion Of events? The Bank of Louisiana
went with the mass, all duly, legally, and it is sup
posed honoNbly protested. There was not bank in
the city in lS57, that could pay its circulation in
specie, let alone its deposits, excepting the MGR
chants Bank, but that suspended in 1912, to balance
accounts it is supposed.
In the month of May, 1857 thirteen years after the
organization of the Bank Of Louisiana, it was found
to be in the following condition, that is, about the
time it suspended payment.

The Dangers of .scctiOnalis1n.

late letter Of Hon. lalnccs X. paulding now far
advanced in years, conveys some wholesome truths
worthy of consideration
"Nothing appears to me more certain than that if
political contests are in future to he exclusively
sectional they must inevitably bring q dissolution
about al no distant period. Human nature is every
where the same, and the same causes everywhere
produce similar results Individuals, communities,
and States are united by the same ties Of mutual in
terest>, aud disuntcdby insult, injury and Opp0Sition
Mutual prrludiccs are propagated mutual hatred en-
gcndcrcd; both parties become hahtuattu to consider
each other enemies, Instead OF friends and country
men, and in voluntary confederation such as ours
should like to know what bonds strong enough to
keep the States together when their citizens have he
come accustomed to look upon each other rs aliens
and enemies. The idea of cOCrrinr onehulf o! the
States of this Confederation to remain in Union
thus ccmented by mutual antipathics and ill-otces,
by the exercise of force the part Of the other half
would be simply absurd and ridiculous, were it not
that the attempt would he productive Of consequences
which man who loves his country can contemplate
without shuddcrng, and none hut an nSocnt lcnla-
g3@te, such as have been engcndercd i'll the corrupt
mass Of conflicting elements now forced into tcmpo-
rary fusion in the fiery furnace Of lauaticsm, would
Decree as one has lately dared to present to the CON
temptation Of his comtlymen as even possible con-
tingcnCy. The Union Of the States was a voluntary
association and it is neither possible desirable
that it should rest on any other foundation.
The foregoing are words of truth and wisdom flow
ing from the lips of age and experience. They are
worthy the profound consideration OF the American
people, without regard to geographical distinctions
Indeed, they should be pondered with more earnest,
ness and attention in Maine and Massachusetts, and
in the other Northern States, than in any Southern
commonwealth, not even excepting South Carolina
with her extreme opinions and bitter prcudiccs.

What was the necessity of such an oath itwoud be
difficult to divine. Whether the rule has been carried
out Or not do not pretend to be qualified to answer
But it would be idle to assert that during thrtyonc
years past, under constant changes in directors and
general mutations of finance and trade that there has
not been any favor discrimination exhibited As for
affection in banking, Legislators of oden times would
require large telescope powers to discover such a
commodity i'll modern banking or trade. The very
essence of banking can be summed up i'll the follow
ing words:
:" No expectation of forbeamnce or indulgence
should be encouraged. Favor and bcnevolcnce are
not the attributes of good banking. Strict justice
and the rigid performance of contracts arc its proper
foundation, and the purity of banking is fully guar
