The semi.annual statement of the Merchants Bank
of this city is before u.s. will appear by the follow
ing abstract. The movements and operations of this
bank have been large in exchange. This important
adjunct of the mighty trade and commerce Of our
emporium must be assisted by local institutions,
and not allowed to be controlled by distant and tran
sient traders, temporary sojourners. Out OF the
many tens of millions of dollars of purchases made
by our banks of foreign and inland bills it is crafty
ing that SO few losses likely to arise. 1t will
be that this bank out of its large investments,
has very moderate amount of unpaid exchange,
and so with all our banks. There have as yet
been no losses charged up on cotton, sugar or
tobacco exchange dealings. 1t will be gladly
observed that there is not dollar of local suspended
debt-that surplus of 1888 63s is on hand after pay
ing the dividend of get on the 18th inst, which
shows the stock of the bank to be one hundred and
ten dollars % share the books, subject, however
to the contingency attending the protested item Of
exchange, with one or two other bills.

Rnchnnnn,s organ out of Tune.

The following Washington letter of the 2sth
to the n. Y Times is all about the Presidents
organ, the Washington Union, which appears
to be badly out of pocket as well as out OF
Ine That the Executive oft the United States
should be engaged in such small business as IS
related, is certainly humiliating to the Ameri-
can People if not to the Democratic party lead
ers The letter lifts the veil to Presidential dis
position of spOils by the same Sage of Wheat
land' who so Iugubriously mourned the cor
ruptions and dangers to our country from the
Fort 6uqdesns 6ss6iaaEoGi 5aaE Gi9 hiI9 9Tt29RddHs2G6G Hs2G6G
marvel:
The last link is about being broken between
President Buchanan and his organ, the Wash
ington Union. Poor Wendell has been duped
until he finds himself bankrupt. The bargain
was that the Administration should use the
Union and furnish two editors, to whom Wen
dell should pay five thousand dollars each. The
President selected Mr.. johnson, and the Cabi-
net called into their service MIR. Hughes, SON
in-law of Secretary Floyd's. In consideration,
Mr. Wendell was to receive the Executive print
ing.
Such was the contract, but Mr.. Buchanan
subsequently, insisted upon division of certain
jobs with Mr. Rice, of the Pennsylvania, prom
ising to make it up. This Wendell agreed to
stand, in order to keep peace in the family,
when other demands were made for division
of spoils, and soon the proprietor of the Union
was left with his establishment sinking him
many thousand dollars year. The books show
loss of $4,000 for the past year-while the
promised Executive jobs were either peddled out
to other papers, or given to Wendell 10 be
shared in partnership with others, who were
elamoring for the means of existence.
When the Pennsylvania was sold out, Wen
dell proceeded with the job ofPOst- Office blanks
alone, with fair prospect of recovering por.
ton of his losses; but he was sent for few
days since by Mr. Buchanan, and informed that
he must place one half of the proceeds OF this
job at the disposal of the Collector of the Port
of Philadelphia, to be distributed among the
needy papers ofPennsylvania. This mr. Wen
dell most respectfully declined to do-and the
result is now threatened blowing up of the
organ. 1t is already much out of tune, as an
employee was running around few evenings
since hunting up some one to prepare a leader
The establishment was sold some months
ago to Messrs. Appleton d Mcdowell, of Maine,
and Major Nicholson, of Tennessee, who holds
a mortgage on the whole concern, was sent for
to ratify the transfer The contracts were pre-
pared ready to be executed next morning, but
it leaked out that night that Pryor, of the South,
was going into the States, and the Union pur
chaser refused to sign. This was the origin of
the report of Mr. ApPleton's going into the Or
gan. The rumor Is that Wendell is minus about
$4,000 clear loss in the transaction.

mouths of the Zambesi river with his little screw
steamer Pearl, spending about month IN the
survey. The river is generally from 1000 to
1000 wards wide, but where it has islands 1t
spreads out two or three miles. He reports the
river navigable for 80 inch steamers ten months
in the year. At Lupata, the river was no long
er divided into many channels, and the difficult
ties in navigation ended At LuPata ton and
halfof coal was mined, the first ever taken out
in the country. DR.. L. says the eoal6eld Is i'm
mense, and many of the seams crop out. The
best iron ore is also abundant. The vessel OF
DR.. L. was the first that ever steamed to Tete,
and it was regarded as leviathan. DR.. L.
says
The country was in a state of war, and no
Portuguese burst pass but we did, our passport
being the English name This is against our
prospects, for everything stands still, or goes
back, when war RACES. We had gone from the
Portuguese to the native side, from time to time,
unmolested, being equally friendly to both par
ties Many of the officers wished to accept my
mediation, and the rebels all did, but the Cover
nor would not give in. A decisive blow is to be
struck soon, but the rebels being mostly runa
way slaves, they will hold out. Two, who act
ed as pilots on board, once wanted me to buy
them, to get out of the scrape. 1t it sad to see
SO fine country in this state. We meet some
very fine cotton growing wild wherever it has
been sown 1t is long in the staple, and has
been introduced as its name imports. The othel
has short strong staple which elIngs to the
seed, and is more like wool in the hand than cot
ton We have also lignum vite and ebony; bu
must leave all these thing to be reported on BY
nv companions. My men were still at Iete
though thirty of them had died of smallpox
and six had been killed by a neighboring chief
The poor fellows received me with great Joy
and no less glad was 1 to see them All th'
party is now well. We have had illness, but nt
coast fever think, as both we and the PeaT
escaped, it was greatly owing to pushing wit
all vigor away from the mangrOve swamPs
the mouth of the river These are the hotbed
of fever.
