Mr.. Mills oaee is ono Of many. Hc did what
hundreds Of otlors arc trying to do. IIo was
mnking ovor-hasto to get rich. Ho ontored into
largo roal-estate and building operations, aud,
Us they did not turn out us ho had anticipated,
lo nodded money to save him from ruin, and ho
borrowed it of tho Company, without informing
any OF his fe}low-oflicers Of tho transaction. OF
course, ho took little ut first, and then little
moro, and 30 OIL, until ho And rendered the
amount Of Lis 1ebt formidable. He was always
hoping to DO able to put buck what he had bor-
rowod; but his expected gain canae not, though
his death and blasted namo did como, aud most
inopportunoly. If 10 had lived h few years
longer, ho would, doubtless, have gotten out
Of his trouble, aud tho record Of his miadooda

difficulty. They can take It wlero 1t will not bo

sink deeper and dooper in, and thoy despair Of
getting out. Sometimes thoy get out; oftonor
they do not. Much moro than tie average

in Wall street, and I hnyo no reason to dis

men dolirious. Thoy r1sh upon coursoa they
would shrink from in their rational hours. Like
cou1lont swimmers, thoy rovel in tho 6urf and
