Nothing more surely marks gentleman
than his public manners. 1t Is, for in
stance, impossible not to feel that a man
who arrives at . hotel at night and goes
noisily, talking and laughing, along the
corridor to his room, fiinging his boots
down heavily and slamming the door,
though an upright and excellent person,
yet lacks the finer qualities OF the gentle
man, The essence OF courtesy Is moral.
II Is sympathetic regard for the feelings
Of others which spares them unnecessary
ANNOYANCE. When II Is instructive It Is
called tact. But It Is, at bottom, humani-
ty. So when public man yituperates
another, however "smart" tho abuse may
/ be, there is an instant perception oil
the want OF true gentlemanly feeling.
However polished the invectiye, It
Is nothing more than the style Of
the slows. When Lord Beaconsfield
spoke Of Mr.. Gladstone in the strain
that we quoted last month, i was instant
ly felt that he had made q mistake: anda
though he might be, as his admirers assert,
the last unmingled representative OF the
Sephardim, or those Hebrews who can

ways ofgentle blood, he was not yet quite
a gentleman. When member OF q pub
lie assembly had been berated by an .op.
ponent with every kind ofofensire epithet,
and was asked to reply, he said: but
there is no reply to q slop pail" Haguest
disturbed from sleep by the noisy comert that
we mentioned should open his door, and
by way OF reprisal, "shy his boot-iack" at
the door Of his noisy neighbor when he
had fallen asleep, 1t might be what was call.

stance, customer came into the bank and
desired TO raise money on 365 bonds. He
would offer. say $1,000. and ask for loan Of
% cents on the dollar on their face value. It is
alleged that Offiey would loan the money, an /
sell the cOllateralS at the market value which
at the time might range at 81 or So cen 8

BAD BREAK
1t is estimated that the accounts of depOsi-
tors will aggregate between twenty and twen-
ty-fve thousand dollars, and that the assets of
the concern will not meet the liabilities, or
even nearly so. If this be true the failure is a
total one, and the moneys of the depoSitors
will prove an absolute loss.
Up to 2H O'Clock Otfiey had not been near
the bank: at least 1t was so stated, and there IS
great deal OF guess work about the firms
affairs.
The failure caused but little excitement,
from the fact probably that it was not gener-
