ture loses much Of its Importance from the Cir

the money paw 1t into their bankers, by whom. at
the end Of the day, it is again paid into the Bank
of England. Many merchants, in order to CRAFTY
al ignorant impulse of caution, have now at their
bankers two three times the amount they uFdi-
rariy keep. The reason they give is they do not
know what may happen" They might know, if
they would take the trouble to reason, that the
foreign drain having been almost wholly checked,
there can bs no increased demand for money, ex-
cept such as may be eccasiOned by their own tears
and by any temporary contingency like the Sc0teh
manic that, under such circumstances. whatever
i. taken from the bank must always, within few
days, return to it; and that, under any eircum

have granted even in the calmcst times.
