The effect Of the free banking clause of
the new law has been thus far Just what
it was predicted il would be, namely, 10
increase the bank capital and circulation Of
Eastern States. II appears that from
Maine applications Nave been made for
charters for two new banks with CAPT
tai Of $3.50, 900, and for an increase Of
$500, 900 capital for old banks. Old banks
10 Vermont petition for sl50,00O more
capital. Two new banks are asked for in
Massachusetts,, with capital of $500, 900 in
the aggregate old banks ask for $3.50 900
more capital, aud other old banks ask for
81 100000 more circulation on capital
already paid in. Two new banks in Con.
necticut ask for 100000 capital; the
applications for increase Of capital from
the same State amount to 1856 900, and
old banks ask for 100000 increase Of
circulation on capital already paid in.
Here IS an aggregate increase Of 50, 105,-
600 for New England out Of total for
the whole country Of S5,531 ,000---more
than one-half In the Western and South

The Grange


The organization known es the Grange
is growing rapidly in this country. II i
intended to be purely in the farmers in
terest and for the farmers benefit. The
products Of the soil and his labor are all be
has, and his lack Of business experience
and want Of organization has always placed
him at the mercy Of the more highly
educated, shrewd BUSINESS and monied
men of the country The Grange propo.
ses to make brotherhood of farmers, tc
bring them together for discussion fol
mutual improvement, mutual benefit; to
create better society relations, and in
business aid each other The objects are
good and noble. Oranges have without a
doubt practically proven great benefit
and great gain where they have had a
fair chance to carry out their aims and
purposes. But farmers ike other people
are human and are liable to err. Mistakes
have been made, errors committed Just as
is often done in other organizations and
interests. Honest men may fail some
times they may undertake too much. So
with the Grange, no doubt at places too
much has been attempted; risks have been
taken without the experience required to
manage bad luck may have oyertakcn
them. But such has not been the rule.
Much money can be saved to the farmer

ing that there has been period of great
commercial depression, which il is hoped
is passing away in England as in the
United States. The closeness Of our com.
mercial relations, with the fact that the
depression Of business occurred simultane-
ously in the two countries, would suggest the
existence Of a eomon cause for the duh
times But whatever may have been the
cause or causes, the fact REMAINS that the
exports from Great Britain and ireland
amounted to $4,000, 900 less last year than
in 1872, while the imports increased to the
amount Of s70,0OO,0O0 Nevertheless the
exports last year were greater in value than
for any gear preceding 1872.
