The Bank of Louisville has declined to
| answer the call for loan to the Military
Board. 1t the banks of this Common
wealth, created by the Legislature with
| certain valuable privileges, in a crisis like
this, withhold their quota of funds, as
means of Gripping the actions of the State,
we trust the Legislature in its wisdom will
adopt such action as will speedily ascertain
the reason why. If the sympathios of the
| directors in this bank are so completely en-
listed in the cause of the enemy that they
fail to respond to the call of the Military
| Board, il should be known at once. Or it
| may be, that through bad management the
! bank is unable to respond to the call. In
either case, a searching inquiry should be
| instituted by the Legislature, and the facts
made known.-LouisUiLJe Democrat.
