While the financial storm has been raging
at New York, the country has scarcely been
affected at all Here in Burlington there
has been no excitement. Trade has pro-
ceeded without interruption, and the banks
have been doing as large a business a.
usual. Since the panic the deposits at the
Savings Bank have been far greater every
day than the Withdrawals, while only yes
terlay the receipts in currency Of the
Merchants National Bank exceeded its dis
bursements by more than $1,000 This
shows healthy tone of feeling and indicates
that people believe in putting their money
in safe institutions at home, instead of
.eakine Investments for it abroad.
