REMARKABLE ScENE.-Therc is some-
thing really cat Of the common way in an in
c"icnt occurring at tho recent anniversary
meeting of the lrcshytcriaus in Chicago. On
the programme was entered the report of a
special committee intTusiGd last year with the
supcrin;cndence Of an effort to raise 1--WE mill
lion dollars us memorial fund The time
came tor the reading of the report and Rev.
DIR. EIIingwood rendered up the account of
this responsible stewardship. The report was
short, md so sustained an Interest that the
audience listened 10 il with intense attention.
With apparent purpose all figures were kept
in tho back ground till just as the report
reached its conclusion, when the efforts had
resulted in the collection of memorial fund
amounting to more then seven million pillars
III Presbyterian churches, in a single year
When. this grand total was announced, tho
vast audience broke out spontaneously into
loud applause, in the midst Of which some one
started the doxOloEy, Praise God, from " HON
all blessings how," which, after being sung,
all remained standing while Rev. DR.. Hall
of this city offered prayer. The prayer is
spoken Of by those who heard it as a most
affecting one, and ut its close there was hardly
dry eye in the housc.-Nc,C York Times.

The Funding Loan.

WASHINGTON, March 25.
The Funding bonds do not seem to &c
as last as was expected. But the Secre'
tary OF tho Treasury does not see In that
any reason to believe that the loan Is un.
popular. Every dollar OF the twenty
millions already subscribed has been
taken in the United States. This Is &C.
counted for In several ways. There arc
several governments asking for money in
the markets ol Europe. The ROths.
childs have an immense amount TO make
up at the present time. Russia and France
want fabulous sums. The troubles in
Paris may lead to worse disorders, and
England always stands still financially,
till she feels safely out Of any threatened
complication. Men high in place here
say England will not act In the money
market till 1t becomes morally certain
that she will not be drawn into any
trouble that may arise out of the tumult
in Paris. Then she will look around to
see who will pay most for money, and to
the status Of each customer.
Nonation In the world has better credit
III hJuuOu buhl hAO OultSu DhtGos 4ull
Is the statement Of a banker who has had
reason to learn the fact. The capitalists
of Europe are slow in making permanent
investments. The Secretary's foreign
arrangements were delayed. and the con.
sequence was that the forms and regula.
tions regarding the new loan were not
furnished in London till ten days ago
Mr.. Boutwell, expects some delay IN
foreign subscriptions now, but does moi
believe it will last long. He will probably
extend the limit Of time allowed for the
800 100000 8 per cent apportioned fol
sale In America. That time was twenty
days, and It will end next Sunday. /
during the extended time the amounts |!
not subscribed, it is probable that he will
offer them in Europe.
Even In the United States individual
subscriptions have been slow. Nine.tenthE
Of the subscriptions have been made by
banks. But Mr.. Boutwell, feels certain
that the capitalists Of this country vii
soon come forward and subscribe literally
As soon as good subscription list loom
up, he will commence redemption of thl
fve-twenties. 1t IS expected that he vii
be able 10 do this ina week or two.
