LITERARY CHIT. CHAT.

THE WORK WHICH more than any other is making
a sensation this season is Mr.. Dal wins book on
"The Expression OF the Emotions in Man and
Anmalsn which will soon be published here by d.
Appleton Co. Mr.. Darwins discussions of the
principles which control the actions Of animals are
really wonderful, If not always satisfactory. An
instance Is his principle OF antithesis, by which he
means the relaxation or tension OF muscles IN ex-
pressing opposite feelings. He argues that ex-
presslons in animals either result directly from
serviceabe acts OF are the indirect results of SER
viceable acts and he goes so far as to assert that
some forms of expression, at first useful, have be-
come hereditary. His work is full of striking theo-
rles ingeniously argued and it shows singular
and profound knowledge of animal life, which can
not but prove useful in the study of the expression
OF emotion.
NEW VOLUME relating to Lord Byron, edited
by Mr.. ii. s. shutters Young and published by
Bentley, Will soon be issued In London. 1t con-

character in pleasing light so far as regards his
affection for her. There also letters to
Miss -, evidently one of his LADY loves and un-
published letters from Keats, Shelley and Sir
Walter Scott. Then follow ''attrbutedn letters
from Lord Byron to many distinguished persons,
which are said to be very interesting and appar.
enIly genuine.

The Run Nearly Ended and Deposits
Being Made Yesterda y-Its Transacs
fions With tho Chatham Bank.
The course pursued by the Chatham Bang
towards the Mutual Bank, upon which was
begun on Saturday, seems to have created much
sympathy In financial circles for the Officers OF the
Mutual who were thus placed in very pcrplexing
difficulties The admission OF the Chatham Bank
officers that they believe the Mutual to be solvent
has, to great extent, restored conf
dence in the ability OF their unfortunate
victim to pay all demands against 10,
and yesterday there was but slttle excitemens
abeut the counters. About twenty small de-
lositors withdrew their deposits while a number
OF business men made deposits as usual. The
officers OF the bank report that saturday last,
having 1--WE vacancies TO fill in the Board OF Direct
ors, and business men, In and about Broadway and
Astor place having expressed Willingness to act,
meeting was being held for the purpose OF filing
these vacancies. While the deliberations were on
the action OF the Chatham Bank in declining tu
act as their clearing agent fell upon them Ike
thunder-clap and OF course they adjourned with
out filing the vacancies. wnen Mr. Hi sought an
explanation Of the cashier OF the Chatham
he reports that that official assured him he had noe
given them notice OF their purposed action, Iear-
ing that they would not 1 send aown @ tneir FRIDAY

They have deposit OF $4,000 with this Institution
tween the two institutions, he asserts, shows no
justification for the course OF the Chatham. But
once had they overdrawn their account beyond
$4,000 This was on November 30, when there
was balance OF &22,4l4 against the Mutual. This
was reduced by $4,000 be.0re the close Of the
day leaving $2,4l4 to run over to next days
account. He exhibited the account to the re-
porter, who examined 1t for the entire period,
covering several months, and the highest sum

1t is singular fact that scarcely q tragedy or

Two of the survivors OF the ill-fated Missouri sea-
