Financial Difficulties.

NEW ORLEANS. March 20. Owing to n run
On small banks the clearing house passed a
resolution this forenoon to suspend payment
bv other than certified check for ten DAYS
The immediate cause of the run is believed
to have been the suspension of the Southern
Bank and Mechanic and Traders Bank.
Quite panicky feeling prevails. All the
clcarin. house banks have resolved not to
pay on checks more than 5000 to any one de-
positor on any one day till the 10Th.
New loRK. March 20. The immediate
cause of the monetary panic in New Orleans
can be traced to the failure of the Southern
Bank and the Mechanics and Traders Bank,
but there are other and more important rca-
sons for the existing state of affairs in New
Orleans. The bonds of that city have great
ydcprrt lated in value Of late, in consequence
of the non payment of interest and somewhat
dcmoraIlcd condition Of the city finances.
The southern bank, which recently went un-
der, is understood have had its capital invest
cd in these bonds.
Again, the non-paymcnt of interest on the
Louisiana consols has caused large shrinkage
i'll their market value say from 81 to 40,
within the past two months. These bonds
were speculatcd in very extensively in New
Orleans. and many banks there held them
either for accounts or as collateral for loans.
The decline i'll these securities has been 50
great that parties borrowing on them could
not keep their margins good and in some
eases banks have become forced owners OF
the bonds. New Orleans banks to-day tclc-
graphcd their New York correspondents for
currency to help them out, and money will 90
forward tonight.

Comparatively Large Number of Animals

CAN ADA.
The Protective Tariff.

LONDON, March 20. The Times, in dis
cussing the question which John Brihht has
given he will ask to-day in the commons rel
alive to the new Canadian tariff, says "Since
the Canadians wish protection, they must go
their own way. The result is not the less
depl0rable."
The Times SAYS the late election in Canada
was manifestation of popular will and pop
ular will must be obeyed. 1t must rule in
Canada and we have long since abandoned
all power even if we cherished wish to in
tertere with its supremacy there. This is
practically the answer Sir Michael Hicks
Peach. colonial secretary, will make to Mr..
Bright.
Ims tariff has been demanded by the Can
adam people. We cannot approve it. We
may and must think it unwise. We are
thoroughly conv inccd that it will disappoint
the inhabitants of Canada in proving an in
Jury instead Of benefit to them. But when
all this is paid what then? We may send
Lord Lorne lecture after lecture to be read to
his advisers. brt shall do no more.
Perhaps it is true that the usual instruc-
ton was omitted requiring him to reserve for
her maicsty's approval all bills imposing diff
fercntial duties? Whatever NAV be the truth
about it. we must remember that the differ
cntnl duties now proposed differ from those
to which the instruction has been generally
understood to refer
The diffcrentisl duties which precautions
have been taken were ditferential duties
against exports from the united Kingdom
The dcierential duties now suggested are lev
cllcd against the United States. We cannot
recoil from the freedom of action. We have
conce led to our Canadian fellow subjects but
we a'c not dcbarrcd from the liberty of crit
icisrn on their policy. The tariff that has
been produced in obedience to the call of a
general election is as unwigc as it can be-
There is no branch of industry which will not
be crippled by it.
In commons thi, evening, Bright submit
ted his question previously reported regard
ing the new Canadian tariff
Sir Michael Hicks Beach, colonial secre-
tary, in replying said that only telegraphic
summary of the new Canadian tariff had
been received, therefore he vas unable to
Judge of its effect but had telcgraphcd that
the government regrets the proposed increase
in duties which are already high. He added
that the right of the government in regard to
sanction of new tariff was not effc ctcd by
the Instructions to Lord Lorne.
