IN the report of the Comptroller Of the
Currency just issued, the profits of banking
can be plainly seen by those desiring to ex-
anime the real facts and not to rely tor their
knowledge upon ignorant stump spcuteIs
who care more for office than for the ruth.
Speaking of taxation of tie national ianks,
he says: "The rate of taxation up,n the
banks OF the city Of New York and in other
cities has averaged more than five per cent.
annually during the past four yeas, and
there is-no doubt that the annual taxes col
lected from those institutions have been
greatly in excess of the rate collected upon
the capital of other corporations, private
firms, and individuals, which cannot te as ac-
curately determined as is that of thenation-
al banks from their published statements"
The report also shows that during the year
1878 sixty-nine national banks have failed
with a capital of SIG, OILS 100, and that the
losses Of these banks were $6,415,43 These
losses fell upon the "boated bondhoders,"
who owned the banks, the people who held
the bills losing nothing, as the 5enefcent
system now in operation protects every bill
holder from loss, as all persons engaging in
banking are obliged to deposit bonds with
the government sufficient to protect every
one who holds their bills-which bills, after
the failure of the banks which Issued them,
are just as good and pass just a. well as be-
fore their failure.

would only stop their talk the business of the

on his interlocutor and peevishly exclaimed
that he did hate garrulous old man.

The Boston Jounal thus closes careful
review of the case tgainst Cashier Barron:
"We may say tina the detectives theory is
ingenious and ths it is possible, but that it
is in the highes' degree improbable. Fur
ther, it does not as the detectives claim, con-
stitute the onlydeduction' to be made from
the facts; and still further, it is very far
from being sufficient to be accepted as final
or conclusive,or ,or to be taken unsupported as
proof that tie supposed hero and martyr,
James W. yarron, was actually deprayed
criminal ant deliberate suicide"

THE FOUR STAGES.

"What is lfe?" sang maiden gay
As she tossed her golden tresses.
"Why, life is only an hour of play,
With silks and satins and dresses"

Who han walked ACROSS the lea.
"Good gracious dear, I've waited all day
For cup of strong, black tea!''
"What is life?" the all boy sang
His books hung by his side
When on the air a shrill voice rang
s'Now, boys, lel's hook ridev'

Whose age was growing ripe
"Frieuds VINO don't wish to see me dead
Will pass me tobacco and pipe''

The Boston Traveller, too, has its fling at
the detectives, thus: His girl having Tilted
him, John kowly, of Findley's Lake, N. Y.
retired to the woods, dug grave, lay down
in it, fired pistol into his heart, and was
ready for burial.-[Ex.l That's nothing. II
he had been as smart as Barron, the Dexter
Bank cashier, he would have completed the
job by filling up the grave after him and put
ting up a neat tombstone. Any expert can
show how the thing might be done.
