stated:
whether the bank or it, officers

question - 70 which opinions may
differ. and which can be satisfactorily
settled only by the adjudication Of the
proper court. should q bank engage
an such transaction and, as you sug-

Warrington. June 72.-Tbe final
reports n 20 the urgency Of the demand
Of the United States ON spain for pay.
ment OF what is known a. the NOrx
claim appear TO have been overstated.
The attitude Of the United States wa
stated without any expression Of de.
mAnd on threat in q Communication
from the state department. 70 Mr.. Tsy.
ior. sent some weeks before Senoa
Aursgus. the then Spanish minister,
had left Washingtou. IL il said u
have made clear that the department .
note was due to instructions from con.
gress that it was desirable 70 have sucl,
responses ~ would permit communi.
cation 70 congress- when it recmveneo
In December. The note was couched
IN the courteous terms usual in dezling
with friendely powers, and was sucb
a. TO give full execution to the instruc.
tions 70 congress. and yet leave spain
70 take such action ~ seemed 70 be CON.
sistent.
The fact that Spain still has minis.
ter in Warrington indicates that there
have been NO threats Of possible conse-
quences, such as have been suggested,
as such expressions eiGher in the origi.
nal note or in any subsequent COM
municatiOn TO the spanish government,
would have given q cause which gov.
ernments are in the habit Of following
by the withdrawal of their minister.
SO far As the action Of the spanish gov.
eminent is concerned. it il not known
here that any action had been taken BY
the cortes. but il II doubled whether
anything has or will be done in the
brief tiT2e before the cortes adiourns-
two weeks hence.
Tho Mora claim il said to be veyy
unpopular in Spain, and the Spanish
minister Of foreign Affairs, who agreed
on q settlement. wac compelled to leave
the cabinet The only action ever taken
by the cortes was in 1885, when q oom.
mission reported that il the claim was
paid the United States should settle q,
once the same time SCI oral large claims
which Spain holds against the United
States. The report Of the commission
was never acted upon. One of spain
claims covers the damage done to
Spanish shipping during the civil war.
Ii is said that the United States has
reimbursed other foreign powers. but
thus far has failed to respond to spain.
Another claim is based ON the occupa.
ton of Florida by General jackson a,
the time when it was Spanish territory.

1t is still an article of faith, not only
in India, but in all lands where mon
keys go in packs, that they have king,
laws and language of course. Saving the
first item and duly limiting the others,
the belief is sound no doubt But Ibn
Batuta tells us, on the authority OF
"pious persons" he met in India, th:.t
the king>lives in state. Four noblemen
always attend him with rods in their
hands and cooks serve him ON their
knees.
The king has train of EARNED fol

contrives to send q message to the SOW
ereign, who forthwith dispatches an
army, and when they come to the town
they pull down the houses and beat the
people, and their armies, it is said. are
many. This is not quito SO ridiculous rs
it looks, for the sacred apes that fire.
luent IN Indian village will readily
gather to avenge IN injury, and it is q
common practice with them to destroy
the huts when angered.
They have great many children,
and when a child is unlike its father
and mother it is thrown out OF the high
road. Then they are taken by the Hin
docs, who teach them every sort Of
handicraft, or sell them at night, that
they may not find their way home.
At Shabar, which appears to have
been somewhere near Madras, people
dare not travel by night in the woods,
for fear of monkeys, which is certainly
not exact, since these creatures never
move after shutdown, but if there be a
foundation of truth in the legend it is
curious. We are not aware that any III
dian apes at this day will attack pass

there are plenty elsewhere that will.

THE ORGAN.
Its Peculiar Fitness For the FORM of Com
position known as the Fugue.

It's Peculiar Fitness For the FORM of Com
position known as the Eugue.
The organ as It existed in Bach's day.
and as iIr1nost esseutials>it exists now,
Is all instrument peculiarly suggestive
in regard to the realization of the finest
and most complete effects Of harmony,
Of meditation and of that simultaneous
progression of melodies in polyphonic
combination which is most completely
illustrated in the form of composition
known rs the fuguc. 1t is so for two CT
three reasons. In the first place it is the
only instrument in which the sounds are
sustained with the same intensity for
any required length of time after they
are first emitted. However long note
may have TO be sustained, its full value
is there till the moment the finger quits
the key, a quality which is invaluable
when we arc dealing with long srspen-
sions and chains of sound. Secondly, the
opportunity of playing the bass with the
feet on the pedals, leaving the left hand
free for the inner parts, puts within the
grasp of 4 single player full and OK
tended harmony and a freedom in manip-
'fords. Thirdly, and i'll the case especial
~ Of fugue compositions, the immense
volume and power of the pedal notes i'm
part Il grandeur to the entry of the bass
part i'll the composition such as no other
medium for producing music can give
us. In the time of Bach this splendid
source of musical effect was confined to
the great organs Of Germany.
The English organs of the day had III
general no pedal board, and it is prob
ably owing to this fact more than to any
thing else that Handel's published organ
music is so light, and even epfemerai
i'll style as compared with Bach's; thar
no treated the organ, as Spitta truly OBJ
serves, merely like larger and more
powerful harpsichord. Without the ala
of the pedal it would be rather difficult
to do otherwise, and the English organ
Of the day was in every respect much
lighter and thinner affair than tine
"lruge house of the sounds. 3" the THIN
