SOME INTeREeTINe FIGURES.

SOME INTERESTING FIGURES.
According to statistics recently
compiled by the New York Sun
there are now 300 national, 5000
State, and 1900 private banks in
the United States, a total of 5000,
somewhat diminished since May by
isolated suspensions and insolven-
cies, but still in excess of 7 800, sew
eral suspended banks having, after
suspension, resumed businessagain
The gross deposits in the national
banks OF the United States amount
to 81, 500,000,000, in State banks to
$650,000,000, and in private banks
to $100,000,000, a total Of $780,
100000. The gross deposits in the
American banks are so per cent.
greater than the national debt, and
equal to about 60 per cent. of all
the gold coin in the world. Com
menting on this very interesting in
formation concerning the existing
banking institutions in the United
States, the Nashville American has
this to say;
This seemingly colossal array Of banks
averaging some $50 to each State in the
Union does not by any means embrace a
surplus number. The financial business
Of the active, progressive and almost uni
versally prosperous American people
aggregating over 65,000,O00 requires
fully, if not more banks than now exist
A multiplicity of banks not greater than
the number which can operate with Q
fair profit, and the competition which
they present, operates most advantage
ously to the various business interests
of the country. Vast enterprises, which
would otherwise slumber indefinitely
spring into life under the impulse of The
advantage of the financial medium of the
bank. The interest of the people ant
the banks is mutual. In crises like tin
present mutual forbearance which ha
been, as rule, exhibited by the two i
highly commendable and gratifying
The almost inconceivable grand aggre
gate Of deposits in the banks of $3.50,
100000 is quite impressive to contem
plate in connection with the thought tina
, public loss of confidence renders it TO
the time, almost valueless to the people
and while in the midst of real plent
plunges us into the greatest distress
If our Legislators could devise som
means of creating check to an unrei
sonable suspension of circulation, the
would indeed deserve the gratitude {
the nation.

The wave of returning prosperity
has struck Nashville and confidence
is being restored. The First Ma
tional Bank, which suspended some
time ago, opened its doors again last
Monday. The deposits at the close
of the first day amounted to $780,
600 and the Withdrawals were less
than $1,000.

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.
Editor CHRONICLE:

Editor CHRONICLE:
I wish to say few words about chill
dren being regular in their attendance
at school. No trifing excuse should de-
tain them from school, both on their ac-
count and on account of the wrong that
is done to the whole class of which the
absent student is a member. Scholars
who are frequently absent from school
not only waste the money bestowed
upon themselves by the public, but that
bestowed on others, and at the same
time, do great injustice to the reputation
Of their teachers.
my child has not learned anything
this term" said a mother to teacher
near the close of the school. "Your
child has been present only one-third Of
the number of days this term, and has
usually been tardy," calmly replied the
teacher. The mother could hardly re-
alize the truth of the teachers state
ment.
Have your children attend school ev
cry day unless prevented by sickness
Irregular attendance at school is one Of
the greatest existing faults, and one Of
the most difficult to be corrected.

An Age of Pneumonia.

Slight attacks of cold often develop
into Pneumonia. Statistics show that
this disease is rapidly increasing in our
country and is generally accompanied
with fatal results. Cubeb Cough Cure
will prevent Pneumonia if taken in
time. 1t is a disease that develops sud
denly, with but little warning to the
patient, and if not fatal, leaves the sys-
tenn shattered and exhausted.
Cubeb Cough Cure prevents Pneumo-
mia, it instantly relieves the depression,
stops exhaustion by relieving the pa
tient from severe coughing spells, keeps
up the vitality, does not nauseate and
thereby aids nature to restore itself.
