How the Chinese Settle Their Accounts.

The week which ushers out the chief
one of the twelve months from a finan-
ciai standpoint. for within these seven
DAYS the hooks are closed; every acs
count is collected snd indebtedness dis
charged and the new year comes in with
no balances 10 be brought forward
save in the cash and one or two
stock accounts. SO rigid is the rule
that each one shall pay every one OF his
debts on the last week of the fifty-twO
that the luckless one who fails in the
smallest account IS posted at the ex-
change, and he must furnish n reason
for nOn-payment which shall be entirely
acceptable and satisfactory TO the body
of the exchange or he might as well put
up his shutters. for hi business days
viii have come TO an end, the effect of
nOn-paymen. being that his brother mer-
chants viii combine and force him 10 go
out Of the business. and he viii not be
permitted togo into trade again until the
claim is settled in full. With the close
Of the year and the settlement Of all
accounts il is the common custom TO
destroy all papers and books. for ali the
accounts being closed ard transactions
finished. they are of no value to the
Chinaman. who cares nothing for the
past One other custom Of the Chinese
merchants may properly be considered
IN this article. and il can best be ex-
planned in the words of = prominent
merchant of the quarter. who speaks
remarkably pure English. Said he in
the course of conversation:
Take nv own store here for in
ssanee-I have two in San Francisco-I
have here n partner and bOokkeeper,
both of whom sell goods in the store.
Then we have a clerk who is known to
every one of our merchants as being
authorized to buy for the firm. and his
orders are always filed. But suppOsing
he leaves OF Is discharged-in either
case we act differently from YOUR mer-
chants. We notify every member of
the exchange that he Is no longer in our
employ. and we send around TO every
prominent merchant in our part of the
city and notify them, and don't yOu see
we are thus not cheated.-SdH francisco
