Another Heavy Bank Failure.

NEW York, July p.
Business opened quietly on Wall street,
this morning, but very soon the greatest
excitement prevailed on the unexpected
announcement that the well known bank
ing house of Duncan, Sherman & Co. had
suspended and closed its doors. Large
crowds of people gathered in the vicinity
of Pine and Nassau streets, and in Ia short
Zine the following letter was sent to the
Stock Exchange;
''NEw YORK, July %.
"a careful examination of our business
and affairs shows us most unexpectedly
that through losses and misfortunes our
available assets are so reduced that we
are compelled to go into liquidation. We
reached this conclusion with the deepest
regret, but the fact that up to the latest
moment our most mexampled credit hav-
ing been unimpaired would have COM
PEELED us, if we continued business, to
hazard new obligations aud receive new
condolences which we were unwilling to
assume. For the protection of our cred
itors, without distinction or preferences,
we have this day made general assign
mcnt to the Hon. William d. Shipman of
this city, whose address for all matters
connected with our affairs will be at our
late banking house, No. IL Nassau street.
(Signed) DUNCAN, SHERMAN & Co."
Mr.. William Butler Duncan returned
from Europe only few weeks since, and
n rta1 IN Ia thppp,srI fuo ION
of the affairs of his firm, and came to the
conclusion to suspend after completing
the examination. The credit of the con-
Germ stood well even up to the closing of
its doors, this morning, and only day
or two since the concern was offered
81 100000 for four months at four per
cent. on its own paper, while their bills
on London sold within one-quarter per
cent. of the very best on the market. A
multiplicity of causes led to the suspen-
sion. The firm has lost heavily through
extensive operations in cotton to say
nothing of losses by a breach of conf
dence and bad debts of agents ard others
curing the past TWO years.
The liabilities of the firm are estimated
outside at $4,000, to $6,OOO,OOO, and are
scattered throughout the U. S. and
Europe. The firm has always done a
large business in letters of credit, and, I'M
less these are protected, many Americans
travelling in Europe will be embarrassed.
The house, or at least some of its men,
bers, have been prominently identified
with unfortunate railway enterprises, such
as Erie, Atlantic and Great Western and
others of similar character. As to the
assets of the concern, no estimate can be
made at present.
The house was established in 1851, by
Alexander Duncan. ST., Watts Sherman,
and William B. Duncan. About ten years
ago, Mr. Watts Sherman died, and the
senior Duncan retired from business,
when the present firm was formed, con-
sisting of William B. Duncan, William
w. Sherman and f. w. Gram. The
leading correspondents of the firm on the
other side were the Union Bank of
London, and Barring Brothers Co. The
firm here banked at the Bank of the State
of New York, which is understood to be
fully protected.

Capillarity.



l send you, agreeably to promise, the reply re.
ceived by me from Prof. Henry, of tile Smithso-
MAN Institution in further illustration of the arti
Gle from me under the above caption in issue of
July 14th
"In reply to your letter. we have to say the ex.
pertinent of Mr.. Bartlett described by you is one
which was made at least fifty years ago, and the
results of which are due to a principle long since
recognized under the name of EndOsmOse.
To explain the phenomena we have only to adj
NIT the following facts LIST, that between sugar
and water there is great attraction, so that a
small quantity of water poured into saturated
solution of sugar and water will be rapidly diff
fused through the whole mass. I'd, membrane
such as bladder, has great attraction for pure
water, but little or none for saturated solution
of sugar and water. The vessel as described in
your letter, containing such solution, being
changed into pure water, the latter will rise by
attraction in the capillary tubes or pores of the
membrane, and attaining its upper surface will
be instantly absorbed into the sugar solution and
diffused through the whole mass--;nother por.
ton of water will be elevated and will be likewise
difIused and so OH until the sugar solution is so
diluted by the overflow at the top that the attrac.
ton will cease to become insufficient to produce
further effect. The same result may be produced
by any two liquids having an attraction for each
other, and one of which has an attraction for the
membrane or is capable of wetting the membrane
while the other has little or no such attraction.
For example, If u piece of membrane such as
bladder be immersed in water, it will soak up the
liquid and become wet but if the same membrane
be plunged into strong alcohol it will not soak up
the latter but will remain as it were, dry. Hence
IL the instrument you have described be filed en-.
tirely with strong alcohol the same result will be
produced as with the sugar. Indeed an arrange
ment of the kind may be made to concentrate al.
cohol by filling the same vessel with solution of
alcohol and water, removing, however, the lower
basin and suspending the apparatus in free air.
In this case the water will be drawn into the
bladder from the solution, and will pass through
into the lower side where 1t will accumulate and
finally be evapOrated. A new position will follow
in the same way, and so on.
The proposition to apply this principle to the
elevation of water for economical uses is an alb.
surdity not to be entertained for moment.
Yours very truly,
JOSEPH HENRY,
Secretary Smithsonian Institution.

DAILY and WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERMONT's LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.

The new year, commemorating the compile.
tion of the first century OF our independence
and witnessing the election OF a president and,
for the FIRST time In our history, an entire ma
tional house OF representatives, will be one OF
splendid possibilities both to journalism and
the country,
The GLOBE will avail itself OF the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt, fresh and full
by impartial comments on the news OF the
hour by candid, honest discussion OF the is
sues of the day by full reports OF local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports, and by selections both grave and gay.
In word, the endeayor will be to make THE
GLOBE live nepspaper, Indispensable to the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student, to the office, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly In store for 1t, we Shall on our part,
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end. we shall labor to
make II better and purer by combating its
errors and exposing the wrong.doers In its
ranks. We shall favor and strive for a real i'd
ministrative reform, a speedy return to specie
payments an honest maintenance OF the ma
tIOn's pighted faith, purer and better politics,
faithful and economical administration OF the
government, municipal, state and nationa.and
shalt support only honest, capable men for
office.
Az an earnest OF the future, we can only point
to our course In the past and assure our pat
rons that hereafter, as heretofore, we shall en-
dcavor to make THE GLOBE better and better,
aud more and more worthy or support with
each succeeding month. What THE GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF It's
existence Is well known, that 1t has been fully
appreciated It's generous support amply attests.
AS medium OF advertising, THRSjLOBE is I'M
surpassed In Vermont. The combined daily

circulation OF the daily Is equal to that of any
other daily in Vermont the circulation OF TIE
