The condition of the banks of the South
having attracted attention, we present u
statement Of their capital, circulation and
specie as they were in January last. 1t will
he observed that the proportion Of specie is
large, being nearly hnlf The amount of notes
in circulation. At this season the Southern
banks are always taxed 10 their utmost ca
pacity, to make the necessary advances on
the cotton shipped to the North and to Eu-
rope. 1t is customary ut this time OF the
year for the banks in the cotton-growing
States to withdraw from ordinary customers
the usual facilities granted to them, in order
to purchase cotton bills of exchange. While
current payments at the North remain I'M
lguidated, the proceeds of the cotton bills
applied to payment of those maturing
liabilities, and this season is always the
one at which Southern payments are made.
The refusal to discount paper lay any of the
hanks in the South must therefore not be
taken as an evidence of weakness but the
simple result of the fact above stated The
present condition OF the exchanges indicates
that the South has paid off her accrued in-
debtedness, and following the laws of trade,
we must soon expect TO ship specie to South
ern ports in moderate amounts. The acces-
sion otn few millions will soon enable the
banks to expand and resume their loans on

novel experiment of the Yale Agricultural

stituted course of practical collegiate educa-
ton, and for the benefit of the public at

Life-sized paintings of groups from
celebrated herds win be included in these

breaking horses are to be accompanied by
practical illustrations. The lecturers OF

A SEVERE CASE OF DIPTHERIA CURED
Inc following severe case of diptheria is
interesting, showing, as it docs. hat this
malignant disorder may possibly be cured
even IN its most advanced stage. 1t appears
that several days ago Felix Seully, twenty
seven years of age and q native of Canada
was conveyed 10 the City Hospital, while
suffering FROM a very violent attack Of
dlptheria. After being placed uuder the
treatment OF DR.. Cornyn, ut the City
Hospital the disease began e. yield readily
TO the local application of a strong solution
of nitrate of silver, mild mercurial catLar-
ties with quinine and blister 10 the nape
OF the neck. The case progressed favorably
until the afternoon of the 18th inst, when
the unfortunate man, under the conviction
that he was beyond danger, left his bed
iatdrsssed and walked with his bare feet on
a cold, uncarpeted foorf and so remained
for fully an hour and until forced by his
nurse to bed. During the following night
all the symptoms became intensely ag-
gravated. The tonsils were again covered
with thick coating OF greyish white ap
pearance, and the breathing very diftitnlt
The same treatment was resorted 10 as in
the beginning, and continued during the
whole of the 18th, until o'clock p. ~,
when upon visiting him, he was found TO
be on the verge of suii'ocation, and his
whole appearance gave evidence that the
respiratory function wos almost suspended
that life could not be prolonged more than
a few moments Medicine had failed, and
life was fast yielding to the terrible garoter,
diptheria. The only hope shadowy one
was to open the windpipe below the
larynx. This DR.. Cornyn did rs soon az
the instruments and appliances conld be
got ready. In the operation, he was as
sisted by Drs. Hodgen and Thompson.
When the opening was made into the wind
pipe, there was an immense gush of mucous,
mixed with shreds of the false membrane,
which twas blocking up the trachea and
larynx. a silver tube was Mt once placed
in the opening through which the mucous
and lymph continued to escape, until now
his recovery is placed beyond doubt.
