OUR SAVINGS BANK.

Elsewhere VIC publish an article
from "7Te SdringS Bank" a news
par err published in New York and
devoted to the interests of the Insti-
tuition. In connexion with the
general statement OF the origin, the
objects and the value of the Freed
mems Savings Bank, we submit a
few remarks of the operations of
our New Orleans Branch, under the
control of G. d. Sturteyant Esq.
1t is gratifying to notice the increas-
ing appreciation of and confidence
in the Bank, 10y our laboring, thrift
ty people. Since January, there
has been an increase of over 900
new depositors, aggregating an
amount of several thousand dollars.
There is at present due depositors
over two hundred and forty thou
sand dollars, again of over $4,000,
since January l, 1871 and the bust
ness of the Bank steadily increasing.
In this connexion we take much
pleasure in noticing that Mr.. A.
Pallet, late book-keeper has been
appointed Assistant Cashier in the
New Orleans branch.
MIR. Pallets business qualifica-
tons doubtless entitled him to this
preferment, while his well-known
urbane and courteous manners can
not but render him a desirable &C
QUESTION to such an establishment.
The appointment is decidedly a jul
dicious one, and We congratulate
Mr.. Pallet on the recognition thus
showed him.

inquiry as to whether those causes

we think satisfy the lovers of peace
and order that the Board are acting
wisely in permitting their men to
carry revolvers still. Besides, look
at so many other cities where the
same "strapping to the rump" is
adopted and compare our police
condition with theirs and see where

they, and then demand the disarm-
