live in small country parish of 1914 inhab-
itants, and our parish register dates from $780,
A young American gentleman came to my
friend, the Rector, and said that it had only
come to his knowledge two days previous that
it was from this village that his fathers grand
father emigrated to America about the year
1850, and there laid the foundation for the pres
ent wealth of his descendants. The gentleman,
with party of IA, had been Is months away
from New York, visiting the chief places of the
Continent, the Holy Land, Egypt, &c., and
ending up with the principal sights in England
and Scotland; and they were to embark from
Liverpool on the following morning. He had
travelled specially to this little village. Would
the Rector be good enough to refer to the parish
registers, and see if his ancestors were therein
mentioned? The Rector did so-the ancestors
there found in regular descent, from the very
beginning of the register-and the gentleman,
in less than two hours time, was set up with a
pedigree dating back two and a half centuries,
which he said he should have drawn up in her.
aldic fashion, and which doubtless now adorns
some room in his American home. TWAS evil
dent that the ancestors were of the humblest
class, as in another book mention of "Goody"
was frequently made as being the recipi-
emit of tenpenny charity. But the surname
happens to correspond with one in the English
Baronetage, and while the Rector was trans
cribing the numerous registers the American
gentleman was busy copying from Debrett the
coat of arms of the Baronet in question, bloody
hand and all. I regret to add that the Rector
never received sixpence for his trouble,
though he might have charged heavy sum in
fees but he was restoring his church, and he
left it to the American gentleman to give some
donation for that purpose, either in money or
in the form of a stained-glass window or other
memorial to his ancestors.

The Extension of National Bank
Charters.


Mr.. Crapo's bill for the extension of ma
tional bank charters, which passed the
House on Friday, provides that by vote OF
two-thirds of the capital stock bank may
continue its charter for twenty years without
interruption of its business; stockholders in
favor of continuing the business of any bank
shall purchase, at the appraisal OF three dis
interested persons, the shares of any stock
holders who may desire to retire. Banks
are required to give ninety days notice OF an
intention to withdraw. circulation, and must
surrender called bonds within thirty days
after the the maturity of their call. Actions
against national banks may be brought in
State Courts, the same as suits by or against
State banks; and the issue of new circulat-
ing notes to take the place of the old is pro-
vided for The vote of 129 to 81 is posi-
tive defence of our national banking system
against the continued attacks of the Demo-
Gratis and their allies. 1t went before Con-
gress on its merits, and the result is more
significant from the fact that twenty-five
Democrats, like Hewitt and Flowers, sup
ported the bill. They thus accepted the logic
of events and protested against financial
revulsion and chaos. They have robbed
their party of all opportunity to claim merit
for their financial doctrines in the coming
campaign. They concede that the national
bank currency is safe; that it cannot be 9th
erwise so long it is guaranteed by the gov
eminent; that it is convenient; that it gives
a currency equally good and safe in every
State and Territory in the Union, and as
good as gold and silver. They admit that
their associates have failed to offer any bet
ter system. The business interests of the
country, which are not partizan, approve the.
bill and demand that it shall pass the Senate
without unnecessary delay, that peace and
security, which were disturbed by the heated
debate in the lower House, may be restored.

PROVIDENCE Press: The Democrats of
Florida have very effective way of carrying
elections. In 1880, in the first congressional
district, they first arbitrarily struck from the
voting lists the names of thousands of re-
publican voters. Then, on election day,
they stuffed the boxes with tissue ballots,
and finally, when the republican candidate
for Congress undertakes to make contest,
no judicial officer can be found to administer
oaths to his witnesses, and his counsel, who
has accepted retaining fee from him, re-
fuses to act or to return the papers thai
have been placed in his hands. These are
facts that have been established by compe-
tent testimony, taken by the national house
committee on elections. And this is in a
country which pretends to be governed by
the will of the majority, freely expressed.
The laws are inadequate for the proper pun
ishment of men guilty of such crimes
