ment, because IL was based on wrong principles

Jectionable, because, besides Furnishing Offenders.
IL actually takes upon iJselr the conduct OF the
marine service.
WHAT HAS BEEN DONE BY THE EXECUTIVE.
The act OF 1872 already empowers the govern
meat 10 stop unseaworthy ships. Since then 95S
vessels had been stopped, OF which 5l5 were
found to he unseaworthy.

1ectualy detain unseaworthy ships 1t also allows
a fourth part OF che crew to demand survey.
Finally it was merely an earnest OF luller legisa-
ton to be had next session.

slowing grain should be engrafted in the bill.
Mr.. Roebuck denied that the bill would satisfy
the country. de advocated continuing consdera-

A Washington dispatch of the 10th
inst, says the Committee on Banking
and Currency have had for some time
under consideration various PROPOSE.
tions to further regulate national banks,
and have virtually agreed upon q bill
which is substantially the same as that
introduced by Mr.. Maynard on the 8th
inst. The committe have the power to
report at any time, and will probably
report at an early day and press their
measure to a vote. If the committee
are unanimous, it is supposed they will
be able to pass their bill through the
House, with a chance for it to 60 through
the Senate.
The bill makes material changes in
the present banking act. In its first
section it removes the restrictions in the
present law by which banks having a
capital of over one million dollars are
limited in their circulation To so, 75 and
90 per cent. of such capital. All banks
will under the new bill be allowed a
circulation equal to 80 per cent, Of the
paid up capital.
Section 2 provides for the appoint.
ment Of receiver to wind up a bank
upon application from any Judgment
creditor whose judgment is unsatisded.
Section provides that when any as
sociation has gone into liquidation the
individual liability, of the shareholders
may be at once enforced by bill in equi.
ty by any creditor. AS the law now
stands this cannot be done until the re-.
ceiver has closed his account, and i'm
one case this has lasted four or five
years.
Section 4 provides for enforcing the
payments of assessments by delinquent
shareholders by selling their stocks at
public auction,
Section excludes liability for special
deposits in sealed packages or locked
boxes upless receipt shall be given by
the bank admitting its liability. Over
sixty suits are now pending against one
bank for such liability.
Section requires, under panalties,
Of saving banks and trust companies
organized under an act of Congress, all
the reports to the Comptroller now re.
quired OF national banks. This pro
vision is suggested by the experience of
the Freedman's Bank.
Section provides for the appoint

Great attention is being paid to the
publications issued by the leading flor
lists and horticulturists of the country.
Commencing with plain and attractive
circulars, they have risen to the rank of
periodicals., handsomely printed, and
embellished with profuse, ornate, and
faithfully drawn illustrations. This not
only insures their preservation by the
trade, but their being placed as orna-
ments on the centre-table. This
shows sound business wisdom. What
is worth doing at all is worth doing
well. The work of Briggs & Bro. IS is
a fair specimen of what has been done
in this line.
