Duelling I'm Germany.

No one seems to expect much good
result from the recent order issued by
the German Emperor on the subject OF
duelling. The provisions OF this YER
bose and pretentious, but indefinite and
unsatisfactory edct are arranged under
nine different heads, and may be sum-
married. as follows; In the case OF all
private quarrels Between officers and all
insults which do not admit OF a speedy
settlement. the parties are TO abstain
from all further action. and at once TO
inform tho Council OF Honor, under
whose jurisdiction they fall. The Coun-
ell OF Honor must forthwith investigate
the case, and may adopt one OF three
courses: (a) IL may propose settlement
Of the differences; or % IL may declare
that the circumstances preclude the
proposal OF n settlement and that tho
matter must be referred 90 a court Of
honor; or (c) II may find that the honor
OF the parties cannot be considered TO
have been affected. and that, consequent
ly, there is no reason either for proposing
compromise or for resorting TO
the action OF court OF honor.
at so far as in any way COM
patible with the laws OF professional cons

ing the decisions OF the Council OF Honor
Is reserved, according 10 the status OF the
parties, for regimental commanders, briga-
dlers, generals, or the commander OF an
army district in the case Of Landwehr

saws: The statement Of the Clearing

ending February 9th was OF an unusual
" favorable character, showing. as IT
did. an unexpected increase Of sS7f7, 900
in loans, after several weeks steady de-
crease In this item. On January "a the
loans OF the New York banks were $751;
S75. 800. which represented a gain OF about
$40 10000 from tho low point recorded
November TIN. The loan total, accor;,~
ing 10 the current statement, is $497, 3d.
COO The gain of sS747, 800 for the week.
therefore. seems all the more surprising.
The only reason for IL seems TO be the
endowment Of the large volume OF money
being used in the reorganization and trans
fors If several OF the northwestern and
