FROM ALL that we can gather. it would appear
that the immediate cause Of the suspension of
the Bank Of California was the scarcity Of coin
on the Coast at the time. Since January last.
1T rs stated that more than twenty millions in
coin had been sent East about four millions
had been sent into the interior to paw for the
purchase and moving Of crops and several mil
lions were stored up in reserve, of which the new
and powerfulbanking House of Flood and O'Brien
(who by the sudden enhancement in value of
their mines have become immensely wealthy
admitted to having two millions. When heavy
houses like that hoard coin, of course Others
must do the same i'm order to save themselves
from n sudden emergency. The Bank of Cal
iiornia, WITH two millions in it's vaults, was no
doubt thought to be safe. But with thirteen
millions of deposits and with enemies able 10
concentrate the press 1.-TWO papers were %untiring
in their efforts TO destroy the credit of the Bank)
1t was impossible TO resist the torrent. A heavy
blow was given to the prosperity of the State :
but the blow will be only transitory, for it's mines
and its grainfields are vast resources. q

Portraits of the Lifting.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. 16.-On a
question submitted by Secretary Bris-
tow, as to whether in placing portraits OF
living persons on International Revenue
Stamps, there has been an infraction OF
that portion of the law which declares
that no portrait shall he placed OIL any
iOf the bonds, securities, notes, fraction
ial or postal currency of the United
States, while the original of such por-
trait is living.
I He says prior to the enactment Of the
revised statutes it was held by the in
ternal revenue to be lawful to ornament
with the efegies of living persons the
stamps, and by the. government in col
lecting its internal revenue these stamps
are not bonds, notes OF United States
currency Of any kind, nor yet are they
IN ordinary, in or any just sense, United
States securities.
Congress, however, in Section !, 5,413 of
the revised statutes, has declared that
the form Of words, obligation, or other
security of the United States, shall be
held to include all representatives OF
value issued OF to be issued by the Gov
ernment, and In the enumeration of par
ticulars which by the statutes are en-
braced by those words stamps are ex-
pressly included.
While am OF opinion that the exclu-
sion OF the portraits of living persons
from revenue stamps is consOnant to and
furtherance Of the spirit OF said sectiin
3,576, can not hold that said section re-
Quires such exclusion or makes illegal
stamps with the portraits OF living per-
sons.
