This is an age of financial discussion,
and one of the leading questions witch
agitates the public mind is not so much
how to make money as how to invest it
after il is made. Monied men eagerly
buy up mortgages, using the comfort
ing argument that houses and lands
cannot run away, and should the hou-
SEES take fire and burn down the land at
least will be left, but they forget that
property depreciates, interest fails and
foreclosure is loss. Government
four per cent. bonds are popular Just
now, and are largely patronized. They
are safe, no doubt, but they return
very small profits, which are available
only to rich men. While the larger
capitalists are thus disposing of their
surplus funds, many persons in our
city, Of smaller means, but with a dis
position to save what they have, are,
from their earnings, depositing small
amounts at a time in the savings banks
Of our city, receiving FIVE and FIVE and
a half per cent, compromising every
six months. If there is anything that
Wilmington more than another should
be proud of, it is in the soundness of
her two Savings Banks. These two in
situations, the wilmington Saving
Fund Society" at Eighth and Market
streets, and the "Artizans Savings
Bank" in the Clayton House Building
Fifth and Market streets, have proved
worthy of the confidence of the commu-
nifty, having stood the test of these
troublous times, the former for nearly
fifty years, and the latter for eighteen
years. In their usefulness and disin-
terested accommodations to the public
for so long time, they have been an
honor to our city and credit to the
managers, who are all citizens OF ac-
knowledged integrity and business ca
pacity, and who have conducted their
affairs So safely. In conversation with
some of the officers of these associations
We learn that no depOstor has ever
lost dollar in connection with these
banks. This speaks volumes in favor
Of the strict integrity and honesty
which have characterized the action o.
the managers, and it is really refresh
Ing to know that there are two Savings
Bank institutions which have been
honestly operated, and those two loca
ted right here in Wilmington. Thest
two banks have always paid good divi.
dends, regularly, besides the accumu-
lation Of considerable surplus. When
these facts, and the social and business
stant ing of the managers, atfording
such reliable guarantee for future Sc
curity are taken into consideration, il
is not surprising that these Banks
should become every day more popular
and their business largely and contill-
ually increase.
