THE CAUSE

Following Is an editorial from the
New York Tribune Of September 18th.
In view Of the great financial crisis
which has occurred since 1t was writ
ten, and for Its Observation-Disclosures,
1t will well repay perusal
The Brooklyn Trust Company de-
parted from tho line Of Legitimate bnsi-
ness, for the transaction OF which It
was organized. to make advances to the
New Haven, Mlddletown and Willlm-
antic Railroad. 1t went down with q
crash.
The New York Warehouse and
Security Company departed from the
line Of legitimate business, for the
transaction Of which 1t WAS organized,
TO make advances to the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas, and to the New
Orleans, Mobile and Texas Railroads.
IL failed.
Kenyon Cox & Co. and Daniel Drew
departed from their legitimate line OF
business to make advances TO- the
Canada Southern Railroad. They
failed.
Who next? How many more ex-
amples will DO needed before the lesson
10 learned? K,
The great financial institutions, and
particularly the banks aud trust COM
panies Of this city, were organized 70
afford facilities for t~ransactlng the busi-
| ness OF this city,-not for making
speculative loans on wild, cat securities
In Canada, Kansas, Louisiana. or along
the frontier OF Mexico. Our business
men furnish by investment or de-
posit-the money for these institu-
lions, and they do 1t on the understand
ing that when their business needs
| help. the institutions will stand ready tc
furnish It. Instead they are wander:
ing Oh to send good money after bad
in building more railroads, when there
ia no business OF: the continent already
so overdone az railroad building.
It Is time there were an, end Of this,
before another 1857 u upoa us. The
three concerns we have named are mol
the only three among US loaded to the
waters edge with q worthless cargo
Meantime our own merchants suffer
for lack Of the legitimate accommoda.
ton they have the right to ask ; crops
Of the West walt to be moved aud the
honest commerce Of the metropolis
and Of the country Is hindered. that
speculative Presidents and Directors
OF our moneyed institutions may make
haste to be rich. after the fashion oil
the Brooklyn Life and Trust. or the
| Warehouse and Security, or. Kenyon
Cox s. Co. 1t should ut last BE- def.
nitely understood that there Is money
enough In New York to carry along
our merchants, but not money enough
to carry them and float bubbles too.
Let the public note the banks thai
discriminate against the merchants
and In favor OF the bubbles!

GENERAL ITEMS.

PRESIDENT GRANT was = regular de-
positor In the First National Bank of
Washington which recently suspended.
His deposit ut the time of suspension
Is not made public. Ex-Presitent
Andrew johnson had 100000 on de-
post with this bank, which paid him
6 per cent. per sunum, aud was his
only revenue. Should the bank fall
to discharge Its obligations he will be
LEFT almost penniless. Some of the
other depositors are the Smithsonian
Institute, $40. 900; the Chlldren's EIoi-
pltal Benevolent ln~stitution, $40, 900
Judge Macarthur OF the District Court,
$40. 900; Senator Patterson of South
Carolina, $4,000; Admiral Rowen,
%, 900; also, Major General Hunter
aud John Jay Knox. Controller OF
Currency, each had balances to their
credit with the bank.
The President yesterday issued a
proclamation abollshlng oil and after
the lst Of October all discriminating
duties OH merchandise imported into
the United States In French vessels.
This Is a reciprocal measure, France
having taken similar action in refer
encc to American vessels.
The Shah Of Persia has arrived at
reheran, Its Capital. In conformity
with the customs Of the countries which
he visited, the telegraph informs us
that he made q speech. What wo
awaits the followers Of Zoroaster IL
this custom should extensively pre-
vail.
The Bank of France has agreed to
furnish ten millions Of francs to the
Spanish Government. The Spanish
Republic Is looking up, and Republi.
canism In Europe Is demonstrating Its
cspability for the needs and Its exis-
tence In the hearts Of even the much
reviled Latin races.
A rRrvATE dispatch received In New
York yesterday states that Jay Cooke,
McCulloch & Co., are throwing out
drafts drawn BY Jay Cooke & Co.,
which have come to hand since the
news Of the suspension Of the latter
was received.
HENRY CLEwEs & Co. suspended
payment yesterday. They paid out
81, 500, 900 before giving up, and had
5000, 900 in securities on which they
were unable to get a dollar Of ad-
vnnces.

From the Reveille, September AL
In saturdays Issue we gave an ac-
count OF q man named william Price,
a herder on Bircham's ranch, who had
become insane and ran of into the
hills. Mr.. BRIGHAM instituted n search
for him, which proved successful. and
yesterday he was brought into town by
Mr.. BRIGHAM. To-day he was ex-
amined by a medical commission call
cd by Judge Mckinney, consisting Of
Drs. WiXom and lIuntsman. who
found that he was laboring under Il
monomania on tho subject of spirit
ualism. His malady Is supposed to be
su%perinduced by grief for the loss Of
his wife, whose death occurred SOME
three months ago. An order for his
commitment to the Insane Asylum was
made BY tho Judge aud lie will BE-
taken to Stockton In a lew days.
A gentleman wearing Il tall plug
hat. seated himself at one Of the tables
in tho Central saloon, last evening,
and calling for a glass Of beer was
soon deeply absorbed IN the contents
Of a newspaper. That amusing game,
der tuyfel In init dose schneiders" was
In progress ut tho time. Suddenly, a
burly Teuton gave an extra pull on
the string which propels the top,
technically known as the devil, when
out flew his Satanic Majesty, aud car
oming on the g%entleman's plug knock
cd IL "gally west" In among a lot Of
barrels. It Is not an exaggeratlon to
remark. that the gentleman was as
tonished. He felt considerably re-
