Lid question: uImWtSfdUl0H ell
Louisiana est difficile a trailer,
ct, a vrai dire, peu de personnes
FONT f,it s6riensement iusqu'ici.
Non pas qu'on l'ignore au moins;
au contraire, une foule de gems
intelligents la connaissent a fond;
mais Ills n'osent pas parler fran
element, de peur d'avoir a dire
de dures veriteS.
Cest Ia nne erreur facheuse.
Par faiblesse pour ceux avec qni
l'on sympathise, pour cenx que
Pon aime, on manque ainsi a plus
dun de ses devOirs. On contribute
a entretenir dams lie pays DIES
idees fansses, des habitudes fn-
nestes, une routine deplorable;
les ref0rmes les plus neeessaires
ne s'operent pas, on elles s'ope-
rent NAL, ct au lien dune prospe,
rite don't il devrait jouir, le pays
reste dams la gene. Bien plus,
tandis one tout autour de lnl
progresse, lui reste Ell place. A
un moment donne, il s'apercoit
quill est distance de tons les co
tes. La rnine ct la misere lui ap
paraissent dams toute leur h0r
reur. II you.lrait lenr echapper,
mails il est trop tard, les moyens
lui manquent pour Sc reformer;
ct sill y rarvient, ce nest QUA
grand'peine ct apres ayoir ira
verse une Tongue periodic de mi

Quant a nous, nous ne vonlons
nj ne ponvons suiyre ces tristes
errements. Sill Y de tristes re
rites a dire, nous les dirons sans
hesitation; au lieu de prenslre DIES
chemins de traverse, nous irons
droit an but, sans nous inquietel
de pIaire, ct ne songeant qua
etre utile.
Et d'abord, sommes nous bien
peuples, CONNIE nous devrions
|l'etre I Evidemment non. Todt

TREMENDOUS LIABILITIES

"The liabilities of the bank of the
City of Glasgow are estimated at $50,
000, 0,000 the acceptances slightly below
SIS, 900, 900; the deposits $4,000, 900.
The unlimited liability of the share
holders may, perhaps, secure the deposi>
tors. The authorized note circulation
was only f72 900 ($360, ,000), but ac-
cording to last accounts, the issue is be-
tween f600,O00 ($3, ,00O,00O and f700,
600 (3,5O0,c0O), against nearly all OF
which the law compels the bank to have
gold. The Bank had 1873 branches. 1t
has paid progressively increasing dl-
vidend.. for several years past until,it reach
ed IL per cent. The business of the
bank had been conducted for years upon
very unsound principles, and, from the
fact OF the other Scotch banks have de-
cided to let the bank stop, it is inferred
that it is very bad case.

WASHINGTON, Oct 3.
Secretary Gorham was asked If he in
tended to print the great financial speech
of Secretary Schurz for circulation in the
campaign. He answered.: "Most EN-
phatically do not. don't know what
it is intended for. 1t is not Republican
speech, nor is it Democratic speech. 1t
says nothing in favor of the Republicans
and nothing against the Democrats. 1t is,
no doubt,a very pretty speech; reads well;
so do the letters of Junius, the articles OF
Addison in the Spectator, and the ad-
dresses of Burk, but do not intend to
print them for circulation in the cam
campaign as Republican documents"
SHOW about the speech OF President
Hayes? Have you printed his Minnesota
speech?"
No, have not printed is, nor do in
tend to print it for the reasons L have
stated"
alas Mr.. Hayes contributed to your
campaign fund yet?"
"No, he has not, and you know it."
