Egibi & Co., the Oldest Bankers.
. Nineteenth CenturY.l

,t.... nineteenth Century.]
In ancient Babylonia ard Assyria, as
in Egypt the precious metals, and es-
pecially silver, circulated as uncoined
ingots. They were readily taken indeed
but taken by weight and verified by the
balance like any other merchandise. The
excavations in Assyria and Babylon,
which have thrown so much light upon
ancient history, have afforded us some
interesting information as to commercial
arrangements of these countries and we
now possess considerable number of re-
ceips, contracts and other records relat-
ing to loans of silver on personal securi-
ties at fixed rates of interest; loans on
landed or house property; sales Of land,
in one case with plan; sales of slaves,
etc.
These were engraved on tablets of clay,
which were then burned. NJ. Lenor-
mant divides these most interesting doc
uments into five principal types: /. Sim
pie obligations. 2. Obligations with a
penal clause in case Of non-fulfillment.
One he gives which had seventy-nlne
days to run. 8. Obligations with the
guarantee of third party. 4. Obliga-
tions payable to a third party. 5. Drafts
drawn upon one place, payable in an
other. He gives the following illustra-
ton of one of these letters Of credit:
"Four minas Is shekels of silver (credit)
of Ardu-Nana, son of Yakin, upon Mar
dukabalussur, son Of Mardukbaiatirib, in
the town of Orchoe. Mardukbalatirib
will pay in the month of Tibet 4 minas
Is shekels of silver to Belabaliddin, son
of Sennaid. Our, the IA araksamna in
the second year Of Nabonidus, King of
Babylon"
Then follow the names of witnesses.
Nabonidus lived about $50 B. G. These
Assyrian drafts were negotiable, but
from the nature of things could not pass
by Endorsement, because, when the clay
was once baked, nothing new could be
added, and under these circumstances the
name Of the payee was frequently omit
ted. 1t seems to follow that they must
have been regularly advised. 1t is GER
tainly remarkable that such instruments,
anu OoPOSAahiy lctttiS VI CTtulI, SnOulO
have preceded the use of coins. The
earliest banking firm of which we have
any account of is said to be that of Egibi
& Co., for our knowledge of whom we
are indebted to Mr.. Boscawen, Mr..
Pinches and Milton Price. =
Several documents and records belong
ing to this family are in the British Mu-
scum. They are on clay tablets, and
were discovered in an earthenware lar
found in the neighborfood of Hillah, a
few miles from Babylon. The house is
said to have acted as sort of nat .onal
bank of Babylon; the founder of the
house, Egibi, probably lived in the reign
Of Sennacherib,, about 700 B. c. This
family has been traced during century
and a hal5 and through FIVE generations,
down 10 the reign Of Darius. At the
same time the tablets hitherto translated
scarcely seem to me to prove that the
firm acted as bankers, in our sense Of the
word. st

Her Cheek.

Says a Paris letter: During the very
earlist years of Sara Berhardts fame, a gen.
tleman in the audience had one night the ex-
ceedingly bad taste persistently to hiss her.
She spotted" him, found out his address,
called at his house and had an interview all
alone with him. / wonder how he liked it.
Then and there the told him it was always
it turns, pets, and fawns upon the mantle
woman's accomplice in sin, and the really
guilty one who has wrought the ruin. For
ages society has shown a disposition to con-
denim the weaker sex and condole the strong
er one. Society can show whittier soul and
truer judgment, by treating men and wo-
men with the. same measure of praise, or
shame, when men and women have committed
the same worthy or unworthy deed. We
know that society has to protect itself; and
that it has double character, showing at
times fearless bravery, and manifesting
again servile cowardice. But it should not
put on its white robes and scorn the scarlet
woman and then sing the praises of the lech-
erous man. These sins against society, the
family and humanity are to be condemned,
but condemn them together. If you sink the
woman let the man follow. His level is by
the woman's side. Do not let sex make a
difference. 1t is the part of bravery to throw
the lesser burden upon the woman, and to let
the man endure the severer stings of our
criticism.
