Men came in boats, and tenderly lift

whose route was between New Ca

bodies of those taken from the water,
and one body particularly attracted

There are five other men in the shop who don't
do any such thing. They spend half Of their

dissipation. This first young man by and by
cuts out from these others and gets boot and

girl. Soon he is able to take his wife out to

The annual report Of the Comptroller OF the
Currency shows that the national banks have
been OF great service to the Government IN
aiding the retirement Of Ave and six per cent.
bonds and their funding 10 four per cents,
thereby reducing the interest ON the national
debt. 'Should the national bank system con-
tinue,r he says, "there is no doubt that the
present rapid reduction IN the burden OF inter-
est will continue also. II the national bank
system is to be abolished, and an additional
amount OF United States notes is to be issued,
all hope of reducing the rats OF interest on the
public debt must be abandoned" He says
that twenty -one millions Of dollars yearly may
be saved IN interest on the public debt by fund
ing the i've and six per cent bonds In four per
cents, through the banks, while the amount
which it Is claimed could be saved by abolish
ing the banks, would be only thirteen millions
He saws that the United States has collected
over eighty -sx millions OF dollars in taxes on
the national banks up to the present time. He
thinks that additional legal tender notes cannot
be consttutonally issued also that the
abrogation OF the national bank system will
revive the old State bank systems with their
wild cat and red-dog currency. He expresses
firm confidence In the resumption OF specie
payments next January, as alike certain, safe,
and permanent. These statements are worthy
the thoughtful attention Of the country, to say
the least
