monsrated but the first threat OF .gellstOn has acted

Il remains for the Common Council to complete the

THE BANKERS CLEARING HoUsE-The functions did
charged by the Bankers Clearing house in Lombard
street in tho abstract so simple and obvious that
they are probably familiar to most persons engaged in
extensive business. In London, and Of course on
much smaller scale in other towns each banker receives
from bis customers daily large number of cheques,
bills warrants coupons de- payable ct the counters OF
other bankers and 10 way other to be collected
at the several places at which they payable. For
every banker to present all these "arclesn Ito the
technical phrase in detail to every other banker would
with the present extent of the business Of the country
be practically impossible within the time AVAILABLE for
the task The work is shortened ghtened, and freed
from risk by establishing central Office called Clear
ing house. at which the clerks of the associated banks
meet at stated hours in each day and set off severaly
oue agaiost the other the articles be coected-pay-
ing only the balance which may appear upon the aggre
gate stitsment Formerly these balances paid in
bank and coin but of late years the arrangements
of the Clearing house have been good deal simpli6ed
and all balances discharged by transfers from
one account to another at the Bank of England The
latest hour up which articles be sent to the Clear

allowed to the several banks 10 return as not payable

Exeeutive Responsibility

The Enquirer reasOrs that s,nce in opposition to the
wishes of the army aud the Judgment OF the country
the President retains General Bragg in command of the
Army of Tennessee, he (the Presidency is to be held

that may result. The conclusion cannot be contro-

A Cantinn

The President is reported have used the following
language in brief address to some Missouri troops at
DemopOlis Ala, the l2:h instant; MAY you live to
the dag of our infant Republic the ensign of great
Nation, )atng proudly among the national cOlors Of
the world" We do not think the President could have
used the language here attributed to him; but if he
did feel that il escaped him inadvertently. The
people Of these States protesting now with all the
energy and all the they possess with life and for
tune and sacred honor saked on the ISSUE against the
Yankee theory that the Union of which they were late
y members WAS an ASiOa." Their belief is that that
Union was and still clearly and ndisputably this
Oonfederacy is an aoo alton of Nations, partnership
Of Republics, and they RECOGNIZES such word tina
ton" and national when applied to that association
L. is to be hoped that public will employ more
particularly Of expression than they have been accus
toned TO in speaking of Confederate affairs It is only
in this way that impress upon mankind a correct
understanding Of the character of the Confederate
Government and fortify the minds of our own people
against the nrOad5 OF error. The ates are Nations
but the confederation Of Safes is not Nation.
