DEBTS OF NATIoNs.--It is moderate
estimate in Europe that the world is in debt
nationally to the extent of 20,925, 000, 900
Of our dollars. The average rate Of in.
terest is four and half per cent, and hence
these nations pay nearly S942 900. AS a
general rule, the nation which owes the
most money is the best trsated. Great
Britain owes in pounds sterling, 100000
900; France 74S, 100000; United States
100000, 900; Italy $50, 000. 900; Russia
355, 100000; Austria SOC, 100000; Spain
PSI 100000; and Turkey 124, 900, 900. The
greatest borrower Of all these-viz: Great
Britain, is certainly the best trusted, and
only has to pay at the rate Of three or four
per cent. interest, while two of the borrow
ers, who borrow least are the least to be
depened upon, and have to pay their eight
or nine per cent.

1T Is stated as an excellent feature in The
conduct of insane asylums in Belgium that
if patients have any complaints to make
they are at liberty to put them in writing
and deposit them in letter boxes, which are
opened weekly and their contents examin-
ed by the local authorities. If the latter
deem the complaints or appeals worthy of
attention, experts are sent to examine the
patient, and if he has been wrongfully treat
ed or illegally confined his case is attended to
at once. This plan may work very well,
provided the local authorities are the only
persons who unlock the boxes. 1t would
hardly be the thing. however, in private
lunatic asylums, where all attempts to Sc
cure the release OF persons wrongfnlly re-
strained of their liberty are generally futile,
so long as their board bills are paid by in
terested parties outside Of the asylum.

The above order was served upon the
Mayor by one of King Menus esquires.
1t was delivered to him this morning on
the point.of sword, and was read by
our Mayor, who promised to surrender
the keys in order to save the city from
being sacked tomorrow by the armies of
the despotic Lord of the Carnival. At
first the Mayor called upon Chief Athy
to muster his force and throw up breast
works outside the city in order to engage
the horde of maskers, but the Chief wisely
replied, by our knightly halidom, we
will do no such thing; in fact we
can't. The only thing we can do is to
surrender and join the invading forces.
While doing this we can catch few of
them tomorrow committing evil deeds,
and lock them up where bolts and bars
are numerous in our Adams street castle,
and we pledge you our knightly word
that not one of the brawlers shall get out
for twenty.four hours, as no torfeits IofH
be taken"
At three and half o'clock this after
noon King Menus and his mysterious
suit will halt in front of the 0verton
and receive the keys of the city from the
Mayor. We recommend that our citi-
zens, regardless Of class, sex or age, be
in attendance in order to witness the hu-
initiating surrender.

Humors of tho stage.

Occasionally the stage manager finds
it necessary to call in assistance from
the pages and ushers who are seen at
our places of amusement. This is done
when, by some unforeseen calamity,
some supernumerary is. taken sick and
is unable to appear on the stage for the
purpose of removing furniture, carrying
off the dead heroes killed during the acts
or as soldiers or police officers whose
duty it is to arrest the heavy villain of
the piece just when he is about to sue
coed in his nefarious designs against the
peace or dignity of the fair heroine of
the drama. At last Saturday matinee,
during the performance at the Grand
Opera House, an officer " was wanted
on the stage, and good-looking youth
named Jim " was selected in hot haste
to enact the part. He had never before
appeared on the stage, and was in trouble
as to his debut. Many anxious inquiries
did he make as to the manner in which
he should perform the part. As he was
about to go on f" some prompter whis-
pered few words in his ear. Jim shook
his head and boldly stalked out before
the foot-lights. He approached the vii
lain who had just been unmarked; glar-
ring at him for an instant, he seized him
roughly and Kissed out Villain and
destroyer of my family, I've ketched you
at lastW Mr.. Joseph Proctor and those
on the stage engaging in the thrilling
tableau stood aghast, and as the debutant
dragged his man from the stage the ac-
tors burst into we'll defined and audible
peal of laughter, at which the excited
and interested audience was dumb
founded, they not discovering the emen-
dation of the new star" When the
play was over, the manager commenced
an investigation as to who had prompted
the new man and had added so unex-
pectedly to the text of the Red Pocket
Book, but the investigation closed with
a lecture on stage proprieties.

The money market during the week
has undergone but little change. The
demand continues fair, and the banks

month. Exchange has been. in good
supply, and cotton bills have been rather
scarce, but the increased sales during
the latter part of the week, and an
anticipated heavy business this week
will relieve some Of the banks Of
their New York deposits, so that the i'm
portation of currency will not have to
be resorted to, as was the case on Thurs
day and Friday last. Discount rates to-
day are s694c on New Y ork, and on New
Orleans it is 4@94c, the latter being the
general rate. Bankers checks on all
points are sold at par. Gold is ll49 in
New York to-day, and is bought by deal.
ers at ll34 Local securities are hardly
thought Of to-day, the preparations for
the grand carnival tomorrow occupying
the attention of all those generally in
terested in them. In this connection we
might add that the street brokers will OBJ
serve tomorrow as national holiday,
and the bank clerks will do likewise, pro-
vided the business community adopt the
suggestion of the LEDGER and transact
their bank business at or before one
