worthy Of notice, the number Of native
born criminals has doubled. She has
one State prison convict to every 1900
inhabitants, greater proportion than
that Of either New Hampshire, Con-
necticut, Massachusetts, or Maine, and
this in spite of a house of correction
that takes many criminals who in
other years went to the prison. The
State Reform School has an increase of
inmates Of one-fourth in ten years.
Then comes the mater of insanity.
Statistics show that the number of
insane paupers In the State Insane
Asylum had increas ed from 1876 IN 1870
to 3O5 in 1880. At the date of the last
report, of the 447 inmates OF the asy-
lum 500 were Vermonters, and the
Superintendent said the number from
other States had been steadily lessened
to make room for the increasing num-
Der of applicants from Vermont. The
larger number of those admitted were
from the laboring and agricultural
population. "...-"".

IMPORTATION OF VEGETABLEs.-
A letter from New York says Lon
don steamship arrived at that port on
Tuesday which brought a large con-
signment OF English and Irish po-
tatoes 1900 bushels and 1866 bags-for
the American market-and this, too,
on the heels of considerable importa-
tions of cabbages and beans. The
potatoes are generally of the Cham
pion and Skerries varieties, which are
grown in the North of Ireland, but
there are also some varieties that have
been raised in England, not far from
Liverpool. They can be sold here,
am informed by the importer, at
from 80 to $3.50 per barrel of 1sO
pounds, wholesale, SO that, at the
present prices of the American pro.
duct (Which have lately been as high
AZ SO per barrel) there is a fair margir
for profit.

A BANK oFFIcER's GREAT GRIM

A BANK OFFIcER's GREAT CRIME.
Great crimes appear to be the fash-
ion Of the day. The stealing of few
thousand dollars is looked upon as an
Insignificant offsnse that degrades a
man to the level of the chicken thief,
while the clerical management that
enables one to secure millions elevates
him to the dignity of bandit or a
financial pirate, drawing to his de-,
Tense some of the leading counsel of
the country. -....
The crime of Baldwin, the cashier
Of the National Bank of Newark,
from his own confession, is a most re-
markable offense. In bis confession
which is very simple statement of
what lis supposed to be the facts of the
case, like most other men who commit
great crimes, he charges his fall to his
having allowed himself to fall into the
clutches Of G. Nugent q Co., mo-
rocco manufacturers, by loaning them
money without security.
He concealed his crime, and covered
1t, and now pretends that he feared to
mako 1t known, and took further
promises from the firm, until Sunday
last he informed one of the Directors
that he had distracted about Sc, AGO.
900, the whole of the Banks capital.
He was enabled to conceal this for
sometime by the Bank Examiner trust
ing him with letter. ..
Here, apparently a very small mat
ter, shows that the Examiner erred.
But the history of Baldwin's crime is
not what we desire to give here. 1t is
only crime repeating itself.
1t has not been long since two other
banks in the same city were robbed by
their officers. In each case the crime
WAS concealed and increased from year
to year by the neglect of the Presi-
dent and Directors to examine and
zee for themselves that the accounts
were right and the money of the Bank
safe. 1t is the old officers in whom
the Directors put confidence that com.
init such deeds. In this case through
this neglect every director Is ruined,
and it may be nearly or quite all OF
the stockholders will be made poor,
while the depositsrs will still lose
enormously.
This is another caution to Directors
and stockholders. How long will the
admonition be regardedt To-day it
may be cashiers will laugh with their
directors over Baldwin's crime in
Banks that are now suffering from
embezzlements by the jokers them.
selves.
The duty of the President, anC
zach Director of National State o.
other Bank is to see and know
through his own knowledge that all il
right. No Bank President or Direc.
tor ought to be expected to take TIL
word Of the cashier; nor should
Director allow himself to rely upo
the word of the Bank President.
Nugent has been put under $500
bail, and Baldwin under $25,
