BIRTH.

A sources OF REVIVAL private letter from
Louisiana says that a new era of agricultural pros
of corn, cotton, cane and rice are all said to be
splendid. Old planters say that they have never
seen such crops at this season. Even the yegeta-
bles and fruits are unusually abundant. There
are 20 locusts, except the carpet-bagging tramps,
and even they do not seem able to exhaust the
vitality OF the soil.

The NEWS brought by the Mikado to the effect
that the Australian mail contract has been
awarded in London 10 a . combination, - Of which
the Pacific Mail Company is the head, is an
earnest of the final establishment of the service on
a satisfactory basis. The New South Wales and
New Zealand Legislatures have yet to assent to
the contract before it becomes operative, but
there can be scarcely n doubt of their doing so,
for the ability Of the contractors is beyond ques-
ton. Five new 6rst-class ships are to be en-
ployed, of nearly 5000 tons each. two to be
supplied by the British owners and three by the
Pacific Mail Company. Honolulu and FIJI are
stipulated in the contract as ports of call.

The PRACTICE has long prevailed in the Courts
OF this Kingdom, of poor persons when charged
with ofenses obtaining the aid of counsel by
order of the Court, free of charge. The statute
says that the Court may assign counsel in such
cases, d" who shall use every lawful e%xertion in
his 1.-THE accused's) behalf, without fee or reward,
upon pain of contempt of Court" This mode of
proceeding probably reduces considerably the
value of criminal practice to the legal profession,
for a large proportion of parties accused in Court
are poor and If they have friends able to retain
counsel, the effort to do go is not usually made,
from the expectation that counsel will be obtained
without expense. In point of fairness, however,
one can hardly see why the prosecuting officers
and counsel should be paid, and counsel required
by law to defend, 60 unpaid.

The National Gold Bank and Trust

The whole history Of the National
Gold Bank and Trust Company and Its
present condition would seem to entitls
Il 10 tho sympathy Of the community.
Its career since its beginning has been
an honorable and useful 10. We have
no scandals connected with its manage
ment and we believe its affairs have
throughout its entire existence been
conducted In a conservative aud prudent
manner. II has never been involved in
mining or other speculations, and we
havo never heard its name connected
with any doubtful enterprises. The
fact that IL departed from tho rule
Of other banks In keeping its
doors open until 4 O'Clock in the
afternoon and not closing at IL
o'clock on Saturdays. has in both in
stances Of its suspension proved dam
gerous. II upon the day Of the first run
Il had closed its doors ut 3 o'clock p. ".
and ON the following day. Saturday.
closed at noon. il is moro than probable
that II would have escaped any serious
pressure. II II had closed on last Sat
urday at tho usual hour tho second day
Of peril would have been averted.
The statement OF its present condition
places its assets at 80, SIC. 2Sl lG, and its
liabilities at l .5l5. 377 6a. leaving n
surplus Of 81. 329. 903 55. Coupling
these figures with the well.known wealth
Of its stockholders aud their individual
liabilities under our banking laws, we
cannot doubt the entire ability Of tho in
stitution to pay, and that promptly,
