supreme judicial Court.-Danforth J. Pre-

THURSDAY, Nov. Gar.
For reasons not publicly stated, but
deemed satisfactory to the court and the par
ties most nearly concerned, the trial of the
Furber- Winslow action was suspended at the
adjournment last evening, until Friday morn
ing. II is understood that considerable more
testimony is yet to be pu. in.
On the opening of the court to-day, it was
found that two actions set down for trial had
been settled by the parties, and there was
nothing else to occupy the juries. The Judge
spent an hour or two on a recall OF the docket,
and large number of actions marked for
trial on the first call were disposed of by de-
fault.
Adjourned till 8 4. NJ. tomorrow.

STAND BY OUR HANKS.

We entirely agree with The Dispatch
that the business men of our city, and all
others having an interest therein, should
do everything in their power to aid our
banks in weathering the financial storm
which burst upon us so suddenly near the
close of last week. Our banks are only
incidentally involved in this financial crash,
and, if not pressed beyond the necessities
of the hour, will continue, as they have
done heretofore, in carrying forward the bus
mess of our city without any serious detii-
ment to its great and growing interests. 1t
will be seen by proceedings and statements
elsewhere in our columns that our banks
were never in sounder or more healthful
condition than to-day. The men at he head
of these local institutions are those whom
our people have heretofore largely honored
and trusted, and there is no reason why
that trust should be withheld now or the pull
lie confidence in them is the least shaken.
IL their financial honor cannot be trusted,
whose can? What they say is beyond all
question true; and few days. forbearance
on the part of depositors, especially the
heavier ones, will enable them to swing
clear of all embarrassment, and com ut
of the storm with credit to themselves
and honor TO our the city.
Had all the banks of the country been
devoted, as those of Richmond have, to
the legitimate interests Of the people doing
business at their counters, no such crash
would have occurred. The faults of a
rernicious system do not lie at their doors.
They would give us sound currency
by combining their operations to
the business demands of our peo'
pie, and let everybody aid them ir
weathering this temporary storm--one
that will blow over in the next ten days, il
our business men are as sagacious as oul
banks are liberal and just in their dealings
with the public.
Let all hands ''reef sail" and weather
through the storm together.
