An Obvious Moral.


The little city of New Brunswick, N. j.,
i've and instructive disaster. The State Bank
there was IN institution of the highest posi-
BILE character, and for very many years its
name was the synonym for safety in invest
ment and integrity in dealing. About dozen
years ago the spirit of Young America in
vaded the Board of Directors, and some of
the members wished to make money faster by
shaving notes in Wall street. rather than &C
commodating tradesmen in their own county.
The cashier, who had been leading infu-
ence in the bank for thirty years. remon-
strated in vain. He pointed to their already
large semi-annual dividends in cash, and their
oceasionallar dividends in stock, to show that
their safe way of doing business, and accom-
modating the people for whose accommoda-
ton the bank was chartered, was profitable
enough. But Young America triumphed
drove the cashier out of the bank, and re
versed the policy of the institution. The dis
carded cashier was, in 1864, made President
of the National Bank of New Jersey, in the
same city, then weak and uncertain rival of
the State Bank. Under the rule of t'safety
first, profit secondary which he introduced,
the National Bank has steadily risen, until it
now stands in the same high position which
the State Bank once held. The State Bank
steadily declined until few weeks ago, when
it was suddenly discovered that the new
cashier and his confederates had pundered
the bank of about one million of dollars, the
capital, the surplus, and even deposits and ne
gotiable bonds on special deposit. The direc-
tors were by law personally liable, and there
fore cheaply won the credit of great and
noble generosity by stepping forward and
giving from their private fortunes toward
making up the deficit; thus inducing stock
holders, who were not liable. to make volun-
tary contributions. It is a comfort to know
'hat some OF the directors who were of the
original Young America party that reversed
the honorable policy of the bank, have been

ONE OF THE TRICKs.-Tbe New York Jour-
nal of Commerce says on Saturday last Mrs.
Clark a daughter of Commodore Vanderbilt,
went into bankruptcy. This relieved the Com
modore from protecting her 10000 shares of
Lake Shore and other stock at possibly 80 or 81.
and also warned connecting firms that he
would not assist them. 1t was supposed on the
street that Mr. Vanderbilt preferred buying
those stocks under the rule at 60 or So, and
gaining the difference of some 80 per cent,
when the stock should be forced up to 80.

And wish him rest in Heaven.
Yet he's ninny, who supposes
That every beds bed Ct roses
For idle's the conjecture.

And he finds Hymen's rather hard,
Who hears a curtain lecture,

Of scolding wife and surely win
Her love for you forever,

A POLITICAL party is not responsible for
crimes of officials it has placed in position,
except so far as it shields them from punish
mont and defends them as the Democracy OF
New York did the Tammany Ring. We
made this remark to Democrat who was
dlating upon Republican corruption as shown
by the recent stealing by the cashier OF the
New York Treasury. As some other parti-
san may be using this same case, it may be
well for him to know that Mr.. Raines, the
State Treasurer, who appointed this man
Phelps, left the Republican party last year,
and is now the Democratic candidate for that
Office. Phelps, Fentonite, was thrown out
of the Custom House by Collector Murphy
several Years since for disreputable conduct.
If the gentleman who made an arithmeti-
cal argument against foreign missions the
other evening in New York, could have read
one of our contemporaries which associated
discussion of the rather mpracticable ques-
ton of the resurrection or resurrection
of the body with "coffee and pistols for two,
he would doubtless have changed his base of
attack and urged that the evidences of igno-
rance and depravity at home demand that
effort in this direction be restricted to our
own country.
