would be glad to hear any facts in relation
to transportation from the West via the
lakes, st. Lawrence river, Caughnawaga

DISCOVERY or AN IMMENSE PLUMBAGo
DEPosIT.-Perhaps the richest deposit of
plumbago eyer known in this country has
been discovered within the past few weeks
in the town of Hague, about thirty miles
from Glens Falls. Charles Wheeler, in
selling the land some years ago, took the
precaution to reserve all ''mines and min
erals" The credit of the discovery belongs
to Mr.. Samuel Alderman of Hague, who,
on reporting to the owner, received for his
trouble the very liberal gift of half inter-
est in the mine. The discovery is very
timely, as the lead works in the vicinity
had almost exhausted their supply.

LATER.
LOWELL. Mass,

The officers of the Merchants bank state
that the knowledge of the Irregularities in
the account of the cashier first became
known to them early last week. One di-
rector stated that his deficit must have
commenced while it was n state bank and
that he had successfully avoided detection
of both directors and bank examiners up to
the present time.
NO error was detected in making up ac-
counts for the October dividend. Pierce
acknowledges the impeachment. His fail
ure to fulfill a telegram promise to the Sec
ond national bank of Boston, to honor
checks, led to an examination and expos
ure. 1t is stated by one of the directors of
the Merchants bank that Pierce had money
of the bank amounting to about Sl75, 900
at one time, of which he has returned
about $4,000. The capital of the bank is
S400, 900; a surplus of about 5 per cent. is
absorbed.
The trustees of the Central sayings bank
assisted by experts, have examined the ac-
counts of treasurer j. n. Pierce, jr, who
was present, and found them infinitely
correct and the funds safe.
