| MI Iresldent courteOusly clasped the
hand of Mr.. Clark, who reel procated. Seats
were now taken, and the first general chat
of s1ch meetings ensued. At last something
like the following took place
:" Mr.. President, am broker, and have
some Of your notes for which want the
specie
" Certainly, MIR. Clark What amount
have You ?''
. Wei, perhaps have more than you an
ticipate.' -
" Why, what is it,
- Very much larger than you usually have
presented, | presume.
| This catches the ear Of the President. who
recalls e Old Nick's'' letter Of instructions.
Mr.. President, with a bland smile, re-
marks
- We shall be mos! happy to give you the
specie, whatever the amount, Mr.. Clark"
1t l. Mr.. Clark's turn. now, to indulge in
a soft inward smile. How little does the
President dream of the crushing bundle Of
Savannah notes now impending over his
doomed bank With 4 noachoidHce which
only broker can put on. Mr.. Clark finally
replies to Mr.. President inquiry
- One hundred and seventy-three thou
sand dollars"
Strange to Mr.. Clark, the President never
WINGED With look of some surprise. he
said
