NEARLY AN EVEN THING.

The United States Treasury, on the Sd
day Of August, 1873, held in its vaults
$348, 50n,700 in United States bonds to
secure national bank circulation, and
on which it pays the banks the usual
interest. At per cent. this would
amount to S520,910,042 per annum; but,
as the bonds bear different rates Of in
tereSt down to 4 per cent, say the ay-
erage is 5 per cent, which amounts to
$17,425,03s q year. Now, while the
banks thus receive about seventeen
and a half million dollars annually in
interest, they pay out in taxes to the
Federal and State Governments from
eighteen to twenty-five million dollars
every year. IF, therefore, the banks
receive a certain amount Of the peoples
money in interest on United States
bonds, they pay back the amount and
a million or two more to the people in
taxes.

The Grand Canal of China is likely
to share the fate Of the Great Wall
This waterway was constructed by
kubal-Khan and his successors Of the
Yuen race, and is 600 miles in length.
There are 10000 flat bottomed boats
on this canal, and these are used in
the transportation of grain. The Echo
states that this great waterway is an
enormous ''White elephant" as it costs
an enormous amount every year for re-
pairs, the appropriations there,as else
where, not being entirely devoted to
the purpose for which they are meant.
Junks are delayed every month while
channels are being dug for their pas
sage. This year, for the first time
since the construction Of the canal
the grain from Nankin, with the con-

off in the receipts at Chicago and small gain Al
Milwaukee from the receipts of the weeks immedi.
ately preceding. The shipments from CHICAGO
were 3O0,OOO bushels less than for the previous

Compared with the corresponding week Of 1877.
the receipts at Chicago this year were 100000
bushels greater, and at Milwaukee 12s 900 bushels
less than last year but it should be remembered
that at this season last year the wagon.
roads of The West were rendered almost i'm.
passable by rainy weather, so that the re.
ceipts at the country railroad depots wero
unusually light. At Buffalo, the receipts by lake
continued to be about the average, while those by
railroad were little less than for the two preceding
weeks although 100. 900 bushels more than for the
corresponding week Of 1877. At the Allan tic ports
