The Bank Statement to-day shows some wide va
riaious from the previous statement. TIE loans are
down yer two millions, and the dersi's over four
millions, while the specie line shows contraction OF
nearly three millions. The changes in the teposit
and specie line. are mainly the result OF The payments
iuto the Sab Treasnry; but the contraction OF the
loans is to be attributed mainly to tue continued re-
duction of mercantile loaue. The loss in specie u
larger than was anticipated in view of the large
amounts paid out daily by the Sab-rreasury, and
must be ascribed TO some extent, to trans.ers by
bankers. &c., Of their balances TO special account.

"For so much gold we license thee"
Sc say our laws, '.a draught to sell.
That bows the strong, enslaves the free,
And opens wide the gates of hell;
For public good requires that some
Should live, since many died. by rum"
Ye civil fathers! while the foes
OF this destroyer seize their swords,
And heavens own hail is in the blows
They're deaIing-will We cut the cords
That round the falling fend they draw
And Ger him hold your shield of law2
And will We give to man a bill
Divorcing him from Heavens high sway.
And while God says, "Thou shalt not kill, p.
Say We, for gold, eye may-ye may ?''
Compare the body with the soul!
Compare the bullets with the bowl
Are We not fathers? when your sons
Look TO you for their daily bread.
Dare We IN mockery. load with stones
Tho table that for them ye spread?
How can ye hope your souls viii live,
If ye for fsh a serpent give

Break fo--h more broadly from above,

Tuc perfect law Of truth and love-
For truth and love alone can save
Thy children from hopeless grave.

turning to the book keeper.
- worthless begear boy" was the mans
answer, and be scarcely looked up from his

In the meanwhile Herr Richter glanced to-

..Ah. my dear sir" replied the boy. Il
I do not know how. and am too little to thresh
or fell wood My father died three weeks

ran out IN anguish, and begged for aims. But
alas, single peasant only gave me piece
/ of bread since then I have not eaten a
morsel.'
1t is quite customary for beggars by trade
to coutrive tales like this, and this hardens
/ many a heart against the claims of genuine
