BANKING.-The Puget Sound Banking
Company was incorporated i'll May last
10y a number Of New York gentlemen to
do business i'll our city. Samuel z.
Warren and o. S. Warren were sent out
to manage tie affairs for the first six
months, and as will be seen by our
advertisement in this issue, there will
be an election on the 4th inst. of Trus-
tees and officers for thsf coming six
months, and We understand that the
management has been perfectly salts
factory to the stock holders and that S.
z. Warren, Esq, Cashier, will be re-
tanned as manager for the coming six
months.
This Bank has given to the residents
Of Puget Sound better and more bank
ing facilities than they ever have had
before. They have drawn Exchange on
Portland, San Francisco, New York and
London at as low rate as the banks of
Victoria and San Francisco, and reduced
the rates of discount for mill drafts and
Eastern exchange, and by so coing have
helped to bring business to our city.
In establishing the Savings Department
they offer a safe and profitable place for
the savings of our young men and pay
them a liberal interest for the same,
and every dollar saved adds that much
to the wealth of our Territory.
We understand that the business has
rapidly increased. and that during the
mouth of September they did as much
business as in June, July and August
combined, and that the business thus
far for October makes even better
showing. A bank under the manage
ment OF experienced and practical bank
ers cannot but receive its portion of the
business and confidence Of our commu-
nifty, and We have no hesitancy i'll
recommending this company to the
general public as long as it remains
nder the management of Major War
ren.

Money in Portland, outside the banks,
has been as high as per cent. per
month. We hear of loans here at
three.
The steady increase of population
makes large demand for money for
building purposes and it is a daily
inquiry 80 Are there any houses that can
be rented in the place Our people
are prosperous. Every month shows
an increase in our wealth. Real Estate
has improved; the high rents make
steady inquiry from our property
holders for loans, even at high rates for
building purpose, keeping the demand
above the supply.
Trude during the week has been good.
Cur merchants report steady increase
from outside buyers; parties that here
tofore have ordered from San Francisco
and Portland are now buying their full
supplies here; our increase of trade
enables our merchants TO sell on small
profits. Seattle which g year ago was a
rival for the Sound trade, now controls
it all, and we hear that number of the
larger houses at Port Townsend and
Olympia contemplate moving here
where trade is, instead of waiting for it
to come to them. We hope they will
do so for there Is room enough for all.

The Late Decision.

In the suit of j. r. Reese against the city
WATERFOWL, in the United 5 ;tes Circuit
Court at Madison, last week. Tor The pay
ment of railroad Bonds important action
kins. 4 bill was filled in court stating that
the city of Watertown had neglected to levy
a tax to pay judgment sgainst the city, and
that the Aldermen had resigned to evade it,
and asked that the court, through its Of.
fcers, ascertain the amuunt and proportion
that each piece of property should pay, and
if not paid in time TO be specified, direct
the sale of it by its officers, to pay the judg-
ment.
Judge Drummond delivered quite alengthy
opinion, in which he stated that be was not
prepared to admit that, N such case as
presented by the bill, the creditor was rene
diless, but on the contrary he thought that a
Court of Equity had power to frame a de-
cree to meet the eXigencies of the case; that
where the officers resigned for the purpose OF
evadng the levy of tax account, a court of
equity had the power to provide and frame
a remedy to meet the demands Of the case.
analogous, it might be, to the proceedings
provided for the assessment and collection
of taxes, and by its officers to assess the
amount of judgment upon the taxable prop
erty of city as the officers were required
to do as fund pledged to the payment OF
the debt, and collect it by sale of property
by its own officers, either as provided by
the statues for the collection of taxes, or
some other appropriate manner. Judge
Hopkins said he concurred with the Circuit
Judge, except as to the right of the Courts
to lay its hands upon the tax laws of the
state, and through its own officers to assess
and collect tax upon the property of the
city to pay the judgment, which, in his
opinion, was the question in the case. He
did not think Court of Equity could exer.
else the taxing power of the state in that
way without express authority to do so by
the Legislature That the only way to
raise the money for the payment of the judg
ment was by a tax, and the usual modes of
taxation would necessarily have to be
adopted and followed by the officer of the
Court, which he thought impracticable.as
well as unlawfu full

recommendations the New York circus has

cious taste succeeded in elevating his estab-
lishment to the position of n fashionable
amusement, aud the entertainments given
by his superior troupe of artists are not
only attractive, but unexceptionableI in every
respect. This excellent reputation is so
firmly established that families who cannot
be induced to visit other travelling exhibit
sions, freely attend those given by the New
York circus company and derive unal Logged
pleasure in witnessing the marvellous feat5
of the artistic equestrians, acrobats and 9TH
er persons comprised in its organic Ition.

tertainments will be more novel, diversified
and interesting than ever, and in order to

sumed he does not exaggerate the merits of
his troupe now.

The United States takes the lead of all ma
tons in enterprise and competition, and
New York is the first, generally, to offer
the greatest advantages. Almost every
month brings forth new advertisements, as
liberal in their terms as they are sparkling
in their originality.
In another column of this paper the
Grand Opera Co, l29 Fulton Street, New
York, advertise to give performances
throughout the United States and distribute
100000 among purchasers Of tickets.
Ticket holders receive handsome present
at the time of purchase; admission to one
opera and chance of prize at the final
presentation.
We do not endorse gift enterprises but
this does not appear to class as such, but
rather Stock Company giving bona Jfde
Operas and then returning to their patrons
a great share OF the profits. This is indeed
competition, and certainly guarantees to
every one the value of his money.
