WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov, 2:I.-The
second chapter of Comptroller knox's
report shows that 252 national banks
were organized in the year ending No
vember 1, the largest number organized
in any year SINCE 1860. OF these 1872
were in the western states, 40 in the
middle states, 4G in the southern states,

Chicago Tribune.
PHILADELPHIA, March Harry
Seybert's will was made public yester.
day. and, although 1t had been ex.
pected that 1t would abound in pro.
visions for charitable institutions, the
grand generosity of Its gifts and the
practical manner of It's provisions we're
universally regarded with admiration.
He lett to the university of Pennsyl-
vania for the endowment Of q chair of
mental and moral philosophy $6O,-
eco, and for the endowment
Of ward In the wing
for chronic diseases $50, 600; the
city tf Philadelphia Ssybert fund for
fuel and bread and the Educational
Home, 500 each; the society for
the prevention of cruelty to animals,
home missionary society, and chill.
dren's hospital, $1,000 each; to over
seventy other institutions sums
amounting to about $3.50, 00O. These
requests are, according to the will, to
be paid out Of the income of the estate,
and the residue of tn estate, which
will amount to over 81, 900, COO, is left
Ia trust to the executors, to be nsed by
them In two similar institutions for
the care and education of boy 9
and girls, respectively. For %
number of years before his death,
Mr.. Seybert was interested in the
subject of sp~iritualism, and, while
recognizing the great amount Of i'm.
posture mixed up with the subject,
held that it merited investigation, Ia
order to determine the falsity or truth
of it's pretensions. In giving to the
university of Pennsylvania the sum OF
$780, 600 for the endowment of the
chair of mental and moral philosophy,
he stipulated, there fore, that an i'm.
partial investigation should be made
of modern s%piritualism, az we'll az of
other systems assuming to represent
the truth. The will was made in 1873.
and in 1t Mr.. Seybert expresses the
wish that his body be cremated, as

RE-0NIrED AFTER MANY YEARS
An Enoch Arden Story from Troy
How Frank Lee Found His
Wife.

Troy, N. Y. March 5.-In 1864
Frank Lee and Ella Bussey were mar
ried in this city, and a year later a
daughter was born to them. In 1868
Lee went to Nav York In search of
employment, and while under the in.
huence of liquor enlisted in the regu-
lar army, and was sent to the western
frontier. He 500 regretted his &C.
ton, and wrote to his wife, who i'm.
mediately procured employment In Ide
Brothers collar factory. Lee oorres-
pended wsth his wife, but suddenly
the correspondence ceased. He had
been taken prisoner by q tribe Of In.
dams, but his companians supposed
he had been KILLED and wrote to Mrs
Lee, when she requested information
from the men at the fort at which her
husband has been stationed.
Believing Lee to be dead, Mrs. Leo
married Merritt Csdy, of West Troy,
but they did not live happily together.
About q year after the second mar.
risge Lee regained his liberty, and
Don afterward learned that his wife
had married again, but determined
not to disturb her. BE drifted to
California, where he made consider.
able money. But o desire to see his
aged mother induced him to come
east, and he reached this Vicinity last
week. Upon his arrival he learned
that his wife was badly treated by
Cady, and that she was living with her
daughter, who has married William
Buckingham, q dry goods clerk.
Representing himself % q sewing
msosine agent, Lee called upon his
daughter, and In the course of the
conversation, told her that he had
been we'll acquainted with her father.
The same evening he called at the
house again and made his identity
known. Mrs. Lee has determined to
return to her frat husband, despite
Cady's threats to have her arrested
for bigsmy IL che does 10. Lee says
that he will take his wife to California

Condition OF Colorado Cattle.

The state inspectors recently visited
every district in Colorado, and have
just returned to Denver with o book
full of figures to prove that unless
some terrible storm shall occnr before
the winter ends, the loss among cattle
will not be more than J of / per cent.
They cay that the loss from starvation
has been so slight, occurring only In o
few sporadic cases, that they have not
thought 1t worth while to make reports
on the numbers that have died from
this cause. The reports which have
been spread through the east have
been accurate, and have had the effect
Of keeping considerable capital away
from Colorado and Wyoming that
would have otherwise been invested In
cattle.
A Wyoming cattle man says that
the territory on the nor.h has no com.
plant to make of the effect of the past
winter on stock, and that the loss
would not be much more than J OF l
per cent. 81 saw 40, 900 head of cat,

"and there were not forty dead ones

other M like that Of 1881, but the
one just past has far eclipHed 1t. The
cattle men haze made more money
than any other class OF investors. The
