The Maverick National Bank.

Boston has at least one national bank of
which she may not only be proud. but for
which very many of her citizens feel posi-
tive regard. In the first place the Maverick
National Bank is one of the most extensive
and best-known in the country. Since its
organization as a national bank 1t has pro-
crossed in its business as a receiver and custo-
dian of deposits, as dealer in government
bonds and foreign exchange, and in other de-
partments of special nature to such an extent
that its offices and rooms. located at the cor
ner of Water and Congress streets. have be-
come noted As among the busiest places in
the CITY. Almost regiment of clerks, pay
ing and receiving tellers. bookkeepers. etc,
has been formed there during the past few
wears, and during the banking hours OF the
day the throng of people transactiag business
Mt those counters do not suffer them to pass
an idle moment So much for the growth OF
an institution which has studied in every way
the convenience and accommodation of its
customers and the public
The department of special nature alluded
to are notably. the placing of money by
telegraph" and the system of domestic as
well as foreign letters of credit" The former
was. by the way, invented or originated by
the Maverick National Bank, while the bank
was also among the first to adopt the home
| s.letter of credit system. BY well-estao-
lished arrangement the Maverick Bank places
money by telegraph in upwards OF four nun,
dred cities and towns of the United States ana
Can,das. On the same plan also as the Ola
system of foreign letters of credit. the bank
now gives letters of credit in the same place
ubers II sends money bv telegraph on this
side of the Atlantic at home and in the DO
m;nion. This letter plan has been in opera
ton about one year, and has excited the I'M
Qualified admiration of the banks travelling
customers. The testimony of these travel
Tors il unanimous to the effect that they not
only obtain their funds without hesitation, on
the production of their letters. but they are
tr.oted with a kindness and consideration
