POPULAR ERRORS CONCERNING
STATE BANKS.

Nothing can be more certain than that
men suffer themselves to be ruled by de-
lusiors. when very little examination and
reflection would wholly clear up the case.
The popular prejudice against tho notes
OF State banks is a popular delusion. The
majority of men now living in the United
States never saw State bank note, and
they know nothing Of State bank notes
except what they have been told. They
have heard them connected with the
terms wild cat State banks" end red
dog currency" until they have come 10
imagine that a note issued by State
bank must necessarily be noxious in its
nature and destructive in it's uses. They
wholly fail TO make the proper distinc-
tons. The State banks furnished the
entire paper currency that this nation
had prior to the war. and in many Of the
States they furnished a currency exactly
suited TO the condition and needs Of the
people and they furnished one that spread
prosperity all through the ranks and
masses Of the people Instead of concen-
the national currency inevitably does
from its uncomfortable tendency to accu-
mulate at money centres
We present the following statement Of
the condition Of state banks in four
States In 1860.

In 1850. then, these four States had no
currency but tie currency issued by
state banks but they had all the curren-
cy that there was any sort Of occasion
for and Il was good currency. and pros
perity was equitably dinused all over
each Of them. and there were no enor-
mously rich men in any Of them. This
came from banking being free, and from
banks being neighborhood banks. where
the managers knew personally the people
OF the community and afforded accommo-
70 them, many OF whom can now get no
accommodations from the national banks,
because. located at the commercial cen
tres. their managers are wholly unac-
quainted with the great bulk of the peo-
pie. What blessing It would be to vir-
ginia to-day II her people were allowed TO
establish banks wherever there is bust
ness enough TO Justify it. and they had
Out 100000 OF their notes. as existed in
1860
The pretudices against State bank notes
are memory OF what happened between
1880 and 1876 in the new Western States
Those States were being settled and hunt
up during that period. Banking being
free they abused the privilege as new ana
prospering communities inevitably win. II

In all the things that come to us there
Is ultimately a resultant effect in the
spiritual unfoldngs OF character. The
quality of that effect is the most accu-
rate DETERMINATION OF the real quality Of
the event. Sufferings and pains whose
ultimate spiritual resultant Is heavenly,
are good things. Prosperity and natural
happiness II their spiritual resultant is
OF self-love, are bad. Everything that
comes TO US may be regarded as COM
parable with an ore, within which is
concealed a precious metal whose guam

the ore. what Ia spiritual within life
Is the only source OF the real value OF
its events, no matter what may be their
outer character. And the spiritual re-
sultant is the only question that the wise
man need consider in Judging OF the
goods and Ills OF life.

DO meet the troubles Of life as they are
oomprehended In the word tribulation, we
heed both experience and grace-grace
Through experience. The foundation OF
this Is assurance; not the assurance OF
sense, that may be variable with our ex-
perience: assurance OF faith Is the work
OF the Holy Ghost that Is immovable.
because It Is based on finished and ac-
cepted righteousness of Christ The re-
suit OF this Is peace with God and JOY In
The hope Of his glory Upon the ground
OF Christ's righteousness and with It's In
Sestiture we are prepared 10 meet ana
survive all troubles. II this were all,
then we should have as result OF GODS
grace only Christian fortitude. That
might not always be distinguishable from
ordinary fortitude.
Christ introduced an entirely new power
and principle Of character with which we
meet trouble and endure trial. That
character is largely constructed through
the trials, temptations and troubles OF
life. Our Lord is said 10 be made per-
feet through suffering" that is complete
in his humanity and redeeming work.
So We are perfected by trouble. Thus
Paul expresses II as an effect OF our JUS
tiication: I'VE glory In tribuation also,
knowing that tribulation worketh patti
ence, and patience experience. and ex-
parience hope. And hone maketh not
ashamed, because the love Of Cod Is 'shed
abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost
which Is given unto US" Thus trouble
is not something 70 be patiently endured.
not only an experience for spiritual I'M
provement. not even TO enhance our eter-
nal Joy, IT is an occasion Of rejoicing
while II endures, but 1t IS more, Il Is the
opportunity Of showing the grace and
