National Rank..

The evils connected with the National
Banks are beginning to receive the atten.
ton of the Eastern press. The Cincinnati
Gazette speaks of them as follows:
The country has suffered but little thus
far from National Banks, but it is plain
enough to see that the foundations have
been laid for bubble of the most extra
ordinary dimensions, and the superstrue-
ture is going up rapidly. National Banks
are running into the widest kind OF
wildcat system. There is no doubt at all
about this. We need not say that we do
not refer here to the banks based upon
bonafide capital, and organized for legIt-
innate purposes; but it is known that the
ropes are being arranged for operations
that will, 80 far as regards the imitation OF
the currency, throw the old, broken down
system OF Indiana and Illinois into the
shade. What else can be expected: Never
was such an opportunity for making mo-
ney presented. Let us look att A bank
is organized with nominal capital of
100000. The sum of 800, 600 is sub
scribed and paid in. This is invested IN
United States bonds, which is deposited
with the Comptroller, and $4,000 IN cur
rency issued. This is used indirectly for
purchase of other bonds, and further IN
stalment Of $Sl 1000 is obtained in curren-
cy. This is again used. and another in
stalment Of $4,000 in currency is re-
ceived. Thus the bank has, on bona
fide capital of 100000, secured and de-
posted bonds to the amount OF $27 l,OOo,
and has in circulation notes to the amount
of $244,0OO. Put these together, and we
have $4,000 standing on $1,000 OO'
This is almost equal to anything the lndl-
ana and Illinois sharpers ever got up In
their palmiest days. Now let us look at
the profits:
Interest on bonds, equal in cur
rency to............ .....$37 $40 w
Interest on circulation at 8 per
cent. l4,64U w
Total interest. S52, $50 w
We have deducted from the currency
% per cent, which banks are required to
keep on hand. But the managers who
60 into this kind of business will do better
than that. How this may be done, we
need not stop to explain. 1t is very easy
to make an average, BY having large
amounts of currency two or three times in
month, to swear by. 1t thus seen that
on capital of 100000 company of
gentlemen may realize profit of $52, $50
per annum from the circulation alone. If
gold should 60 higher than $40, the profits
would be still larger. 1t would be in the
direct line of interest with those bankers
to initiate the currency and enhance the
price of gold. But about redemptions.
Isn't bank required to redeems Yes, in
greenbacks but they are not asked to
redeem in anything. There would be no
object in it. If we had specie payments,
there could be 10 such banking as this we
describe; but there being no payments OF
any kind, notes are set ahoat, and do not
return to annoy their makers.
