London. Nov 1.-THE Times this morning
says In its financial article. concerning rumors OF
Irregularities in the management OF the Bank Of
England: Probably have heard the last OF
these rumors In London. but likely as not the
uneasness will remain in places remote from here.
Still we think the Bank would do well TO make
known how small comparatively. is the basis on
which the reports rested. The majority OF City
men is Of opinion. but the minority. holding
that the least said the soonest mended. is
respectable one. The minority has arguable
case its chief argument being that declara-
ton from the Bank would be precedent by which
the Bank would be bound whenever rumOrs Of losses
should arise. This is faacious First. II would
not be a sure precedent, other Institutions have
not found II so; secondly. the present case Is q
peculiar one, and could not be real precedent
for announcements OF trivial matters"
The Standard" says: 1.-The meeting Of the bank
directors yesterday was rather protracted. As the
stery went they discussed whether the resigna-
t3ous OF two directors should be accepted The
ramss were even mentioned, though entirely with
eut ofncial authority Whatever the Intentions Of
aoy members may have been. II Is certain that
none actually resigned. II would be unseemly,
evel pernlcous. II any did 80 at this juncture'

A CITY SKETCH.
Subtle influence Of a Kindly Old Man with
an Innocent Babe.

an Innocent Babe.
He entered an elevated train at Franklin
street, with a white clad, golden haired
baby girl in his thin old arms and a smile
on his gray bewhiskered face, Every man
in the car was silent behind a newspaper
or gazing glooniily out Of a window.
May sit by you?" he inquired Of an
overfed, melancholy man in black, who
was occupying three-quarters Of a double
seat in the middle of the car.
The melancholy man moved slightly,
Certainly" he said, and when he saw the
baby girl he frowned at first, and then
smiled and squeezed himself into one-halt
the seat.
Breezy, amt it," inquired the old man,
and four newspapers were lowered into as
many laps.
"Yes, It is" replied the melancholy man
with another smile. Seems to be blowing
freshly up the bay"
Shouldn't wonder If we had rain, ven
tured the old man so loudly and cheerfully
that passengers for ten seats around looked
over and smiled, and two or three began to
converse tentatively, after the manner OF
persons who learned to talk very late in
life. Told my darter this mornin before

nrnistnre in the Pores of Wood.

Microscopical investigation has proved
that the pores of wood invite the passage Of
moisture in the direction of the timber's
growth, but repel it in the opposite direc
ton, says The Lumberman. This fact aC-
counts for a phenomenon which is often no
ticed and one which puzzles good many
people-namely, why two pieces of timber
sawed from the same section Of tree
sometimes appear to possess very variable
degrees of durability. If the wood, say, Of
a gatepost is placed right end up, the
moisture in the soil will affect it, but the
rain falling on the top will do little harm
If, on the other hand, the butt end Of the
tree is put uppermost, the top or the post
will decay, because the moisture Of the at
mosphere viii penetrate the pores of the
wood more rapidly in this position. Many
people have noticed that the slaves in a
wooden tub appear to absorb moisture ir-
regularly, some getting quite sodden, while
others remain comparatively dry and ap-
parently almost imperviors to moisture.
In this case the dry slaves are in the posi-
ton in which the tree grew, while tno'sat-
urated ones are reversed.

Increase in Japan.

An English statistician has been making
n study Of the population of Japan, and he
estimates that the annual rate Of increase
in that country is thirteen in every thou
sand. On such basis the population will
double itself in iiftY=eight years. This face
Is remarkable when compared with the
srowth Of the countries Of Europe In
England the rate of increase is 1872 thou
sand. but in most Of the other countries It
is between six aud niEe, and in France and
gnaiu It is lower still. IN the case Of Japan,
zoo. the number of births is lower than il
most parts Of Europe except France, and
the number Of illegitimate birthsi is smaller
than in any European state. The writer in
question attributes the remarkable increase
to the development of wealth since the
restoration and the decrease Of the death
rate among children,
