The Banks in the Courts,

THE Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
has just decided that any national bank
that charges rate of interest that is
usurious in the State where it is stu
ated must forfeit the entire interest,
and may be compelled to pay the per-
son overcharged a penalty Of double
the interest that has been paid, pro-
vided it be sued for within two years.
A suit brought against the Ocean bank
of New York, by depositor who had
lost some valuables by the burglary
several years ago, has been decided in
the banks favor, but a new trial has
been granted. The judge instructed
the jury that the bank was not respon-
sible il the officers employed trust
worthy servants and instructed them
properly, and on these instructions the
jury found for the bank. The judge
who granted the motion for a new
trial took the opposite ground that
"the negligence Of an employee within
the scope of his duty is the negligence
of the employer and this seems to
be the better law.

Would Lie for Two Bottles,

From the Bendigo Advertiser.
During an examination of an abort.
ginal witness in a case tried at Ingle-
wood lately, some amusement was
caused by Mr.. Lamont, who appeared
for the defence. The witness was not
thought to be a reliable one, and the
following characteristic dialogue took
place between the counsel and the
black fellow, Mickey. Mr.. Lamont {:
''You wouldn't tell lie % Mickey {:
enc; mine no tell him lie.'' MIR. La
mont: ''Not for a nobler? q Mickey {:
''No, not TO: a nobler.'' Mr.. Lamont {:
1.-Two noblers - Mickey: ssNo!"
(emphatically.) Mr.. Lamont: s*Three
noblers!'' Mickey: ''No'! nor with
great emphasis.) Mr.. Lamont: Zone
bottle? Mickey; "No," (the EN-.
phasis all gomez Mr.. Lamont: "For
two bottles? Now mind! for two bot
tles?' Mickey: Eyes, mine tink
tell him lie for two b0ttles'' Amid
considerable merriment the witness
was ordered to stand down.

Funerals as Disease Breeders.

From the London Lancet.
THERE is good reason to believe that
disease is occasionally disseminated
through the medium OF funerals. We
have at least one fair authenticated
instance in this country Of diphtheria
being diffused broadcast through the
crowd:ng incidental occasionally to
the last ceremony. In America this
question is beginning to receive much
attention, and several cases have been
reported of late where the transmits
sion of the disease from the corpse
seemed highly probable. The Suffolk
District Medical Society sent out 400
circulars to medical practitioners,
with view to ascertaining the opinion
of the profession on the alleged danger
of permitting public funerals of per.
sons who had died from diphtheria.
Two hundred and thirty-nino answers
were received. OF these, l43 writer's
expressed belief in the possible dam
ger of contaglon at such funerals {;
seventeen believe that there is danger
from funerals in the houses of the
dead, but none in churches; twenty.
nine fancy that, in the present state of
knowledge, there is no justification in
prohibiting public funerals; and eight
record circumstances which occurred
in their own experience confirmatory
Of the proposition that peril may en-
sue, but the testimony these latter ad-
vance is not quite satisfactory. The
Society, after due consideration, rec
ommend that funerals at the houses of
those who have died of diphtheria
should be private. owing to possible
exposure to the poison of the disease.

The Wheat Markets,

The Mark Lane Express says the
commencement of the week has been marked
by violent gales, which, it is feared damaged
the young cereal crops in the highlands.
However, appearances continue promising. In
Scotland agricultural operations have been
much retarded by rainy weather. Probably
large acreage OF wheat has been sown through
out the United Kingdom this year owing to
the favorable seedtime. Dampne>s has much
interieIed with the threshing and much otthe
home grown is again offered in poor condition,
but English wheat, both in London and the
country markets, has advanced nearly two
shillings per quarter. Foreign has also met
with large inquiry at the same improvement.
The fact that supplies are really short is tore
ing itself upon the minds OF buyers, who have
been deceived because there are two million
quarters on passage, not thinking it will not
all come for five or six months. The activity
in trade has been considerably due to the
marked falling off in imports of American
wheat. the arrivals being less than 900 quar-
tiers, and the stoppage of the St. Petersburg
supplies, and it was on those descriptions the
demand chiefly fell. 1t appears that increased
activity and even excitement may be felt in
trade before this year closes An increased
demand for Russian sorts will probably epeed-
lily follow the present demand tor red.

Bank Robbed of $4,000.

A most successful and daring rob-
berry was perpetrated at Somerset, Perry coun-
ty, last week. The banking house OF VIM. W.
Ream was entered by four masked men and
over SIC, 900 stolen. The hank building was
a two Story brick. situated in a prominent
part of the town, the second floor being occu-
pied as dwelling by Ream's family. About
o'clock Ream was suddenly aroused by two
masked men on either side of him selling
his wrists, while the other two stood at the
foot of the bed with revolvers. Ream was
ordered to accompany three of them to the
vault, the fourth remaining to prevent an
alarm being given by Ream's wife, On reach
Ing the vault Ream was ordered to unlock the
door, and the thieves took $4,000 theretrom,
leaving the gold and silver coin, etc. ,untouch-
ed. Ream was then gagged and bound to a
chair, and with the robber watching Mrs.
Ream the whole party fled. Ream was not
released until nearly daylight, his wife ex.
pectingto be killed if she gave the alarm. 1t is
supposed one of the robbers gained entrance
to the house early in the evening, and alter
wards admitted his associates, as no doors
were forced. Great excitement exists at
Somerset, ana bands of men secured the conn
try Tor traces OF the robbers.

Gov. Hayes Makes a Speech.


While in Dayton, Ohio, few days

Gent respect and confidence in the great ma
jority OF the opposite party to believe that they
will do the same. l am glad to see in a paper
this evening an article from The London
Times respecting the condition of this coun-
try. "Such state OF afairs,' it said, "could
not occur any where else in the world-the
entire area of the country agitated by the un-
certain issue OF the political conflict, yet not
one shot fired not one man killed no breach
es of the peace" We have seen this GEN.
tennial year of the wonders of our growth dis
played in the exhibition OF agricultural and

opportunity OF giving to the world an exam

terred, without previous thoughts, to what
must have occurred to every one OF US stand
ing here, and take my leave ofyou with most
