amount, and when the news Of their
failure was announced our president i'm
mediAtely started for New York. The
draft was duly received, but was sent
back by the house before the president
reached the city. Had they been dis
posed they could have Kept the draft. as
It was sent to them before their failure.
In this respect" said he, their action
was III marked contrast to another bank
ing house in Wall street, which failed in
1873, owing us nearly $1,000 and
from which We never received a penny.
although now the house is rich and i'm

An Uneasy Corpse.

0swEGo, June ia ourlous but well
authenticated story comes from South
Hannibal in this county. Alexander
Scott, resident for 80 years OF the vii
la9e, died on Wednesday evening. After
tho funeral services Saturday afternoon,
The friends gathered about the coffin to
lake their last view Of the dead man,
when, to their amazement, the corpse
shook like q person having chill. The
Incident created much oommotion, but
preparations for the burial went
on. AS the coffin was being
lowered into the grave, certain
friends OF the deceased standing
by earnestly declared that they saw his
hsnds move, and insisted upon an in.
vestigation. The corpse was accordingly
taken to neishboring house to await the
arrival Of Doctors Cooley and Lse, who
we're hastily summoned. The physicians
made very careful examination, but
weis unable to find any evidence Of life.
The body was then taken back to the
graveyard and buried, not, however,
without many IHissivirss on the part OF
those who had witnessed the strange in

Ignorance of his departure for several
hours after he had gone. Hall told the
president, Henry Clayton, that he did lot
intend to leave the town, and Mr.. Clayton
knew nothing OF his disappearance until
late Monday afternoon. Several directors
and stockholders we're interviewed and
they all state that they have no inten-
tion OF screening tue defaulter from the
authorities. Their loss is quite enough
without furnishing him with means to
make good his escape.
Doubts are entertained by many cou
cerning the late cashiers losses on mar.
gins, ,eto. They believe the statement to be
false and that he has greater portion OF
his stealiugs i'll cash, which he either
has with him now or securely hidden,
whore it will be hard to detect. If such
be the fac q, 1t is useless 10 say that he
is hiding here az he would undoubtedly
be more likely to spend the summer in
safer and more comfortable parts.
Rumor has IL that he attempted suicide
on Sunday last. The way is not stated,
but that he was detected ard prevented
from carrying his intent into execution.
As to who is responsible for the def
cheney not covered by the transfer OF pro-
perty, WAC considerably discussed last
