The Corn Exchange National Bank Of Chi
cago has informed the Comptroller Of the Cur
rency Of It's withdrawal from the national
banking system. The formalities Of the law
will be complied with in about sixty days, and
thereafter the institution will do business I'M
der the State law as the Corn Exchange Bank.
The reasons for the change are the heav-
mess of the taxation Of national banks, the lack
of profit In the circulation, and the supervis-
Ion OF national banks by examiners.

Apparently the damage to adjoining prop
erty inflicted by the elevated railways In New
York is more imaginary than real. At any
rate there was very successful sale Of Sixth
Avenue real estate last week, which the New
York papers say upset the oft repeated pro-
phecles OF evil results from the new order Of
locomotion. 1t Is simply a new order OF things
and that Is all that has come about, the ele-
waited roads having brought such crowds OF
people to the streets they run on that they
have done quite as much good as harm, IL not
q little more OF the former

to anything OF the kind. On the contrary,

they were by the other. Mr.. Reed Immediately
objected, and amid great laughter, in which Nj.

question out OF order.
This ended Mr.. Tildcn's examination.
During the cross-e1amination Of Smith, Til

The Abbevllle Medium Is very anxious
TO have tho next Democratic State Con-
vention held in Greenville, and in advo-
cacy Of Its views says:
"The central executive committee have
the power TO fix the time and place for
holding the convention. The Democratic
members OF the General Assembly should
hold caucus and consider tho wisdom OF
sh,,5 sii0tiof, and, having cohsidpred IL In
all Its bearings upon the luture strength
of tho party, should advise the committee
tc order the convention in Greenville.
We call for 1t in the interest or tho party
Its harmony and unity, and It's greater
strength aud efficiency In the perilous
struggle just before it,"
AS far as we are concerned, we are per-
fectiy willing t.at tho aext Convention
bo held in Greenville, though we must
acknowledge that we cannot SEQ why IL
ls 80 very important or necessary 20 the
future harmony snd unity" Of the par
ty as our Abbeville contemporary claims
It to be. We believe that tho men whom
the Convention dominates for State Off
ceTs, let 1t be held wherever it may, will
be supported by the people OF South Car
olina with as much zeal and unanirnity
as wero those nominated by tho last two
Conventions. We do not think tho party
In this State Is in such great danger of
going to pieces, nor do we consider the
holding of the Convention in some other
place than Columbia necessary to success
next year.
