GHOSTS. There are strange stories a
float concerning these dwsllers in the
neither world. Our trends "John" and
"Sam" saw one Of these mysterious crea,
lures few nights since, and no mistake
1t was tallard spare-dressed in shroud
and was seen in the inevitable grave
yard. ,,.s,sf
Our friends, forgetting the stories Of The
''lame goose" and the innocent "sign
post" were frightened out Of their wits
Johns teeth chartered and Sans hail
raised up until it not only raised his hs
off his head, but actually lifled him out o
his boots. The ghost suddenly vanish
ed and SO did our friends The story
was told. The credulous old women, and
some young women are terribly alarmed
They see ghosts in every corner ard theil
dreams are full OF them.

There is no way of arriving at the standing posi-,

after week the public and the world at large are
furnished with the three above items of the bank
ing movement. At distance, the general reader
cannot form any conclusion of the position of these
banks The three items above are circulation,
exchange maturing and specie. Nothing is said Of
deposits and amount due distant banks, nor are
bills receivable or paper under discount given to
the public. As one of the items above is exchange
maturing another item ought to be introdueed-of
how much exchange matured or is on hand that
can be drawn for at once. A very low line Of coin
reserves for the seven banks of St. Louis is one of
the prominent features Of the above statement.
