Banks of Deposit and Discount.

On this subject, Mr.. GuLATN in his work on the
currency, page G.. says:
A monopoly embracing all the ordinary banking
operations in this State had been created in favor of
oharteredbank BY act passed IL 1904 and confirm
ed in the revised statutes Of 1927, it enacted
that no person association Of persons or body cor
porate, except such bodies corporate as are eX-
pressly authorised by law, (the chartered banks,)
shall keep an office Tor the purpose of receiving
deposits or discounting bills, issuing any
evidences Of debt to be loaned put in circulation
as money: nor shall they issue any bills promis
sorry notes as evidences of debt private bankers
for the purpose Of lOanng them or putting them in
circulation money, unless thereto specially au-
thorised by law
So much of that law as forbade any person or
association of persons to keep Offices for the pur
pose of receiving deposits discounting notes or
bills was repealed by law passed February 4th,
1887.
1t is not believed that any such prohibition on the
receipt of deposits the discount of notes has ever
existed in any OF the other States, in any other
country 1t was denounced by the writer Of this
essay more than ten years ago. It is now univer-
sally agreed that this species of banking should not
only be open to all, but requires more restriction
than any other species of commerce
But any corporation created by the laws of any
other State or country forbidden TO keep any such
sfce for discounting notes bills receiving depos
its or isSning cash notes.

"Ion," the well-informed Washington correspond

22d inst as follows:
The rumors of an invasion of our territory at
Brownsville by large Mexican force under COrti-
mas are not confirmed and hence the further move
ment of troops to that position are unnecessary.
The design imputed by rumor to this government of
Selling upon the northern States of Mexico is not
entertained. Neither is the territory of Mexico COW
eted by the United States the control Of her in
ternal affairs To undertake the government of
Mexico would be hopeless task. We want nothing
but peace and commerce in regard to Mexico.
The British subjects interested in Mexico are very
DESTROYS the United States should Mexico. and
they expressed great surprise, on late occasion,
when American gentleman informed them the
United States would not accept Mexico, were the
country, with its people, voluntarily rendered TO
The British government would have interfered ere
this for the protection of British commercial interests
in Mexico but for the hope and belief that the Uni
ted States government would take Mexican matters
in hand. That something will be done of an efficient
nature by Great Britain, France and the United
States, for forcing Mexico 10 respect trestes and
regard national rights there is reasonable doubt
A sufficient force of regulars and volunteers has,
it is believed reached Brownsville, this for the
