Bankers View or Relief for thu
Banks.

COLUMBIA, Pa, Sept 81 1873.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
As financial relief for our country is urgent and
demanded at once, would suggest the following
as the best means of relief Tor the present financial
panic:-
would suggest to the President Of the United
States the propriety OF cOnvening Congress at
once, and that Congress pass law authorizing the
Comptroller OF the Currency to issue to each SOL
vent national bank circulation equal to the par
value of the bonds deposited with him to secure
circulation and repeal much of section 81 of the
National Bank act as refers to legal reserve on
their own circulation. Note holders want no more
security than United States bonds per. This will
give the country $50 100000 additional circulation.
The relief would be general and immediate, as all
national banks have certain amount OF crcua-
tion with the Comptroller ready Cor distribution.
All that will be required Will be the signature of
the bank officers. The distribution would COM
mence on the day it became law. If legal ten
ders are issued, what are the banks or individuals
to give the government IN return for them? and at
best it would be months before the relief would
reach the country at points remote from the. large
cities or commercial centres.

and the old state OF affairs. The rush to The Stock

The street Car Drivers story.

From the New York Post1
"Ah, sir, this is going to be a hard win
ter" said q great, burly car driver to us
the other evening; !" and ! saw yesterday
what such as you don't see very often, and
hardly believe when It's told to ye. One
Of the men that drove on this line nigh
three years sent his little gal to ask me to
come see him, and I laid of last evening
and went. as
Snow I heard how he was sick with
consumption, but l didn't know how sick
until / got there. gss .as.
"As sure as ! live, sir there was that
fellow what one year ago was as strong
and hearty young man as you ever saw,
with his legs no bigger than my wrist
and him q Iyin' on the floor and heavin'
and chokin' all the day and night.
"He told me he hadn't sent for me till
he had to, and on looking round, sir, !
saw there wasn't any furniture left; and
altho' o year ago he had his little room
fitted up comfortable like, he had sold
even the straw in his tick, and was q lyin'
on the floor. i wouldn't. care to live,
Jim,' said he (speakin' very hoarse and
troublesome like, but for my poor wife
and children; for altho' I'm only in their
way, ! like to see 'em round, and ! shan't
trouble 'em much longer And here he
looked at his wife, and smiled when she
cum up, and, takin' hold Of his hand, told
him not to talk like that, but to pluck up
hope for her sake and the little ones.
aBye and bye, after looking OF her and
then round the room at the children, his
lip commenced to tremble and the tears to
fill his eyes, in spite Of his tryin' to smile;
and altho / think I'm as hard. hearted as
any man, I couldn't stand II and just bust
out cryin'. :
"Well, It seems he hadn't bad anything
to eat that day, so ] gave him two dollars
(all had), and sent for some bread, and Q
bundle ofstraw, and, best Of all for him, ]
do believe, ] got his babies stick Of
candy and q whistle, and left 'em almost

and went to the place Of the terrible
deed. He arrived there at II o'clock
last night, and found the bodies with no
one near. They had been robbed Of their
guns, jewels, horses and equipments. The
bodies were removed to Lonake to-day,
where an inquest Is being held. "

panied by Hon. ]. P. Eagle, from Lonake,

Bold Attempt at Robbery.

WILMINGTON, DEL, Nov. 7.-Great ex.
citement was created this evening by an
alarm proceeding from the residence ol
the cashier Of the Bank of Delaware, ol
this city, caused by the attempt OF five
masked men to gag and bind the family
Of the cashier, with q view to robbing the
bank. The men gained admittance to the
house by stratagem, seized the cashier
handcuffed and threw him on the floor.
They then proceeded to the dining room,
where the ladies were at tea, and with
drawn pistols enforced silence. One oil
the ladies escaping, gave the alarm, two
policemen arriving in time to see the bur.
glars escaping. Chase was given, and
one OF the policemen gained upon the re-
treating gang. Shots were exchanged
without effect, when one OF the robbers
suddenly stopped and allowed the officer
to get near him, and then dealt htm o
murderous blow, and the officer fell sense.

The robbers have oIfar evaded arrest.
