marching organizations of San Francisco,
reinforced by uniformed organizations
from other points in the central portion OF
the state. The procession consisted of
thirteen divisions, and it is estimated that

An Address to Democrats.

New YORK. Sept. 22.-The national
Democratic committee issued an address
tonight to the people of the United
States. 1t is signed by VIM. H. Barnum,
chairman of the national Democratic COM
mittee, and Calvin S. Brice, chairman of
the campaign committee. A postscript
directs that all contributions to the ma.
tional Democratic campaign fund should
be made payable to the order of Charles
j. Cadna.
The address begins by abiding to the
evident wish of the great majority of the
Democratic party at the end of Cleve-
lands third year of office as president
that he should be nominated for a second
term and then appeals to the members of
the Democratic party for pecuniary as
sistance for the purpose of printing and
circulating campaign documents and for
other legitimate expenses. In conclusion
it appeals to that vast body of earnest
men who have learned in the toll and
struggle of daily life to estimate a good
government at its true worth, and whose
love of home and country will prompt
them to contribute each according to his
means to the expenses of a canvas of such
moment and extending oser so great a
territory

Early Bankers.

Up to late period in the reign OF
Charles 1. the London merchants de-
posted their surplus cash in the mint,
the business of which WAS carried on in
the Tower. But when Charles I. seized
the G200,08O there deposited, calling it
loan, the London goldsmiths, who
ever since 1856 had been always more
op less bankers, now monepolized the
whole banking business. Some mer-
chants, distrustful Of the goldsmiths
in these stormy times, intrusted their
money to- their clerks and apprentices.
About 1648 the citizens returned al
most entirely to the goldsn,Iths, who
now gave interest for money placed in
their care, bought coins and sold plate.
The parliament, out of plate and coin.
had coined gold and seven millions of
half crowns. The goldsmiths eulled out
the heavier pieces, melted them down.
They began, to receive rent and allow
interest for it. They gave neeeipts for
the sums received, and these receipts
were to all intents and purposes mar
ketable as banknotes. s.-London EG-
