HOnbOurg Now.

This resort Is full of Americans and
English. Many people who only came
for a day to try their fortune, now
come prepared for longer STAY. and
many of the Frankfort families have
taken up their summer abode here.
Fathers and mothers, with their grown
up daughters and younger children,
now enjoy the promenade of the Casino
without having their eyes or ears
offended. Music is given three times
daily in the grounds, the theatre is
open three times week balls and re-
unions twice week, grand extra con-
certs, military concerts, illuminations.
and various Cctcs all tend TO make the
time pass merrily. There are also con-
versation, billiard, and reading rooms,
and il the gamblers have disappeared,
the bathers and drinkers of the Spa
waters (murlatic saline springs) have
increased to q remarkable extent. The
purity of the air from the Tannus
mountains, and the excellence of the
water to those who like 10 drink it,
leave nothing TO be desired.

In a recent letter addressed 10 an
English horticultural journal, DR..
Hooker takes the ground that the
formation of honey.dew may take place
independently of any insect agency.
although there seems little doubt bat
that, by the action of aphides, more
copious secretion is often obtained.
Having carefully watched the formation
of honey-dew upon the leaves of the
lime, he discovered that during hot
and sunny weather the upper surface
Of the leaves, including those on the
extreme branches, became uniformly
speckled with honey dew. and. yet, a
careful examination Of the leaves So
marked disclosed no aphides. Hence
the conclusion that its formation is n
function Of the plant itself

American indignation over the

The A. NJ. & o. r. Il.
Salaries REDUCED.


On last Wednesday the directors
Of the A. NJ. d o. R. r. held a
meeting in Lynchburg and reduced
the salaries of all the Executive
officers Of the Company and the
per diem OF the directors twenty
per cent, and the salaries OF the
minor officers and the per diem of
the other employees ten per cent.
The reduction of Gen. Mahone's
salary amounts to $4,000. In ed
dition to the reduction Gen. Ma
hone and ell Of the other executive
officers agreed TO receive the bonds
OF the Company, payable in three
years, for One-half of their reduced
salaries. The action seems to meet
the hearty appreciation of all the
employees, as the very wisest and
best possible arrangement that could
be made in view of the heavy loss
of business, consequent upon the

The Million Dollar Telescnn

There is very high authority for the
statement that the money has been
provided and all other arrangements
completed for the manufacture of
telescope which will enable the
Americans to see objects never yet
gazed upon by man. The enormous
sum of 81. 900. 900 has been raised for
the purpose and scientific observations
VIII be made in order to teste the
most suitable locality on the Sierra
Nevada mountains for the establish
ment of permanent observatory for
it. 1t is believed that twelve foot
objective With 120 foot focal distance
and an eye-piece with focal distance
of Onl y one twentieth of an inch, is
practicable. The magnifying power
will be eight hundred thousand times,
aud will reduce the apparent distance
of the object nearly 10000 times, The
surface of the moon will then be
brought within eight miles of us and
If there be men upon it they will be
visible. The rings of Saturn and the

amazing and yet it is thought that
those of US who may live five years
longer may be able to see them.

THE BANKS.
How the Notes of Broken and
suspended Banks remain
good

suspended Banks remain
good
We have been asked to furnish
list Of the broken and suspended
banks, in order to quiet the public
uneasiness as to the value Of
National bank notes in circulation.
A brief explanation VIII convince
our readers that ALL greenbacks
and National bank notes are per-
tectlY good. Of course the legal
tenders, or greenbacks proper are
good, as the government issues
them and is bound for their pay
mtnt. All national bank notes are
equally good, for the reason that
htfore any national bank commen-
rrs business it must apply to the
Treasurer, of the U. S. who issues
to it the printed notes which it de-
sires TO put in circulation, but the
officers of said bank must first de-
posite with the Treasurer bonds of
the federal government as its cap
ital and these bonds are held by
the Treasurer as security for the
payment of these notes. The
Treasurer issues to said bank, bank
bills only to the amount of $50 for
each hundred dollars of bonds so
deposited, SO that for each 800 of
notes issued by said bank the
Treasurer holds 800 of national
bonds for security for their redempN
ton. Hence when such banks shall
have failed, the TREASURER RE-
Deems THE NOTES from the proceeds
of these bonds. So that whether
broker, suspended or failed the
notes Of all the national banks are
good, but parties depositing money
for safe keeping with these banks
have no such security and must
look out for themselves. 1t is the
custom of banks to loan such de-
posts and secure to themselves
the interest arising from their use,
keeping a reasonable proportion on
hand TO meet the ordinary checks OF
he depositors, and in case they
have not enough on hand tor such
purpose, they can usually check on
each other, or borrow from other
parties enough TO meet daily de-
mands. But when a panic ensnes
aud all depositor's rush pelmel up
on the banks for their entire cred
its, 81 course immediate payment
becomes an impossibility and they
suspend payment from necessity.
This lie the whole story.

Advance in Local FreIghts.

The recent heavy loss in through
frcights has already resulted in a
sharp advance in local rates on tie
T. T. Va. e Ga. r. r. and in some
Instances on the A. NJ. & o. r. r.
also. Among the latter we note
an advance in the rates on stock
cattle, which, however, is due TO
another reason, as it has been found
TO lead, in many instances, to an
imposition on the Company
Large numbers of beef cattle were
shipped as stock cattle, in order to
secure the reduction heretofore OBJ
served on the latter. But the Chief
lesson of this advance will be found
in the demonstration of the folly
of the popular clamor for uniform
rates, per ton pei mile, which would
DRsTroY all through business and
perpetuate the advance in local rates.
