The Bank of North Am erica of Philadelphia,
which was the first banking institution char
tered by the United States, entered upon a
new era in its remarkable history when it re-
Gently took possession OF its new home on the
site of the original building on Chestnut
street. For ia years since its foundation by
Robert Morris, this bank has continued to do
business at the same place, the only exception
being the brief periods when the building of
lSiS and the present new structure were in
process of erection. Tho institution has had
singular career. Every student OF history
will recall the fact that tho bank was started
by Robert Morris at the suggestion of Alexan-
der Hamilton for the express purpose of help
ing TO sustain the feeble credit of Congress.
This IL accomplished by loaning large sums to
the Government, and this important assistance
IL continued 20 perform from time 70 time as
the necessity of the public treasury demanded
even up 90 the late civil war, whom large sums
were again advanced 10 meet the expenses of
keeping troops in the field. In return for
these public services the only favor the bank
has asked OF Congress was TO be allowed TO
keep its original title Of "The Bank OF North
America" when ID took its national bank
charter under the act of 1854. The privilege
was granted, and il is said 20 DO the only in.
stance where a bank has been permitted TO
receive this form OF charter without inserting
the word national in its title.

The subject was ably debated by several DIR.
Reuben A. Guild spoke very forci6iy. and be-
lieved IL depended largely upon the man him
self, whether in or out Of college. Mr.. c. L.
Carpenter said he visited teacher In the
Doyle avenue school, and listened to very
line, almost faultless, reading by class, and
II was due to the teachers constant efforts,
who had been fine reader ever since she was
school girl In his sunday School. Mr.. j. Ii.
Brown read a very interesting paper, by the
great painter. Frank Carpenter, on the read
ing OF the emancipation proclamation TO the
cabinet. by Abraham Lincoln, and the de-
scription of the historical painting of the
President and the cabinet in the Capitol, and
his wonderful rise from poverty to be the
greatest ruler of modern history and self. .edu-
cateu' Mr. secretary COOK gave very elo-
quently, Secretary j. q. Blaine's beautiful
eulogy on President Garfield, and to show the
lack OF correct teaching, said no visited an
out-of'town school lately. when the teacher
asked scholar what transmigration was, and
the answer was: " Going from one section of
the country to another" And another:
" What is the Church of Englandf" and the
answer. 1t is the Catholic Church" Mr..
Munroe, who claimed to be one of the oldest
members, gave many facts and descriptions
OF events and persons, far away back for
many, many years, and said practical educa-
tion WAS needed and asked: How many high
school graduates could measure load Of wood
or give the tonnage Of bay steamers One
lady whose name we did not catch. said she
thought George Washington a good example of
the subject under discussion and gave CO.

is big nough TO write more copy In a
day than the paper will hold so that 1t
has no need of outside assistance. II is a
free and independent newspaper, and
while il has had occasion to appreciate
counsel that it has confidence in, il does
as it pleases, always. What it pleases
it tries TO make mean the same thing as
what is right, and sensible and
honest and just. without show
or fiaploodle. or speciousness, or
concealed motive. Aud it has been
gratifying thing that its opinions have
so often met with approval from its
readers.
We are moved 10 these remarks be-
cause every now and then we hear that
somebody connected with some interest
or other, toward which this news
paper happens 70 be well dis
posed, is running THE News, or
debating what it shall say, or writing
its editorials. This sort of talk is some
times personally fiattering to the editor,
because some very brainy men have been
thus accused of helping to fill its col
umns in their own interest. But as mat
ter of record, it is simply CUFF. There's
nothing in it. THE News is the most
cheerfully independent, unrestrained

in the land, full of the product of buoy
ant youth, as cocky as it is sanguine,
and as sincere as it is pertinacious in
whatever it undertakes TO do.

DO We Persecute the Jew Peddler?

To THE EDITOR OF The NEWS:
SIR-Will you kindly allow me space for
what appears to me TO be subject of public
concerns
My attention was drawn to a paragraph in
the North End news Of your issue of Monday,
OF ono Brunstein being the victim OF the
malice of two boys, who stoned him, inflicting
injury.
This Brunstein, assumed to be-to put it
bluntly-nothing more nor less than Jew
peddler. An almost lndicrous phase of the out
rage Is the fact that the perpetrators were
"colored boys" That there exists a certain
degree of antipathy Of the Irish people in this
city toward the jew is q matter frequently
demonstrated by little occurrences similar to
the one mentioned, and to the thoughtful
mind the question arises: How long must this
thing endure? Even admitting-as many Of
us in fact do-that the jew peddler is an un-
desirable addition 10 our social and economic
system, reaping oftentimes where he hath not
sown, why must he be violently suppressed or
through any means. except by public laws, the
outcome OF public sentiment One can scarcely
pass day in streets in the North End
without witnessing a new case of this dis
graceful persecution, usually by boys, but
tolerated, and so morally sustained, by their
elders.
Will not some one Of the many in this city,
whose motives and influence have been identi-
fed with the public good and higher Chris
tianity, raise his pen in behalf Of this much
abused son OF Israeli s.
