POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS.

The project to establish postal savings
banks does not meet with unqualified in
dorsement in all parts of the country.
The objection which the American
Banker has raised against the esta blishing
of system of postal savings banks, that
the effect of such a system would be to
divest many communities of portion of
their banking capital which is now EN-.
ployed locally is substantially reafirmed
by the Home and Farm, an agricultural
journal published at Louisville. That
paper we'll says: "A national savings
hank that drains the email savings of half
q continent into our Federal reservoir
will do more harm than good. savings
bank system should be local in it's char.
acter and be under state and not under
national supervision. Deposits in saw.
ings banks should be loaned 10 the com
munity from which these deposits are
drained. Bank deposits constitute q
most important part of the loan fund of
every community, and any law or regula-
tion which takes these deposits from the
section of the country whore money is
scarce 20 another section where money IL

OCTOBER 10, 1881.

Ever memorable, ever blessed day on
which the defeated British surrendered at
discretion to the allied armies of gallant
France and eetAmerca. Losing says;
"All were eager to look upon Corn
wallis, the terror of the south, IN
the hour of his adversity.n The
his march of over 1900 miles through the
southern states was in keeping with the
conduct of England's "civilized" warfare.
He suffered dwelling houses to be plum
dered of everything that could be carried
off; and 1T was we'll known that his lord
ships table was furnished with plate thus
obtained from private families. "His
march was more frequently that of a
marauder than of an honorable general.
1t was estimated at the time, from the
best information that could be obtained,
that during the six months previous to
the surrender of Yorktown the devasta
tions of his army amounted in value to
about $15,00O,OOO. They were disap-
pointed; he had given himself up to
vexation and despair, and feigning i'll
ness refused to appear and no wonder
indeed. This British sprig of nobility
conducted his campaigns, more like
common thief than soldier, and carried
away the plate he had stolen to decorate
his tables in England. Between him and
the bloody tiger, Tarleton, they made a
desert of the south. They were brave in
the presence of women and children, but
when Marion and Sumter, with their hard
riders from the swamps of the Pedee and
the Congaree swooped with yells of
vengeance upon their camps, they showed
their heels with such celebrity as to dis
lance Marion's swiftest squadrons. By
that would have been credit
able to Napoleon, Washington drew Corn
wallis into the skillfully prepared trap
at Yorktown, where hemmed III by the
French on one side and Washington and
Rochambeau on the other, he was COM
PEELED to surrender Englapd's last army,
leaving our glorious America free and in
dependent forever.

CLOTH COSTUME.

house painters and interior decorators with
the necessities of their trade-have pig
ments of all kinds in the form of powder,
in which form they may be mixed with
either oil or water, as occasion demands.
Wall paper designers combine these pow
dered colors with gum or size and water
for printing their designs or for fresco
work, while painters mix them with an
oily medium. Unprofessionals are often
unaware of such simple secrets of repair
and regeneration and hire tradesmen to
do work which might equally well be done
by amateur hands.
The illustration given today shows a
costume of dull red CLOTH The skirt is
ornamented around the hips by bias bands
of black velvet. The close bodice is sim
ilarly trimmed with black velvet bands
which in part give a corselet effect, while
they are carried around to the back and
up to the neck in point The upper part
of the bodice is cut to form bolero, deco
rated with black velvet bands, and tho
chemisette is of yellow srlrah Tho close
sleeves, slightly full at the top, have epau-
let's which form coquilles and are trimmed

THE HON. Mr.. LAKE.

The people of Arizona should call Hon.
VIM. H. Lake home and bury him deep in
the sands of the desert in that territory.
Mr.. Lake went to New York few days
ago, and for fear he would not attract the
attention man of his i'm portance should,
succeeded in getting the following notice
in few of the papers in that city:
Hon. VIM. II. Lake, prominent min.
ing man of Arizona, is stopping at the
Broadway Central hotel. Mr. Lake is not
on his way to the Klondike gold fields, as
he is already the largest owner of gold
and copper mines in Arizona. When Mr..
Lake is not actively engaged in mining,
he spends the time framing laws for his
territory, having been member of the
Eighteenth and is now member of the
council (senate) of the Nineteenth legis-
lature. Before serving his district az
legislator, Mr.. Lake was elected twice to
the sheriff's office of his county, and was
one of the active kind who freed the
western country of 'hold-ups' and bad
oharscters.'

The complaint is made by tom perauce
societies that the drink habit is on the
increase, and these same societies are
casting about for the cause. The cause
is not hard TO find; it is the demands that
are made by society upon men already
overworked. There is limit to human
endurance, and when men reach that linn
it and are not allowed needed rest, they
resort to stimulants as an aid in carrying
their burdens, and the result is a COM
plete breakdown, physically, mentally
and morally. From the moment child
enters this world until the time the vital
spark is extinguished, life ia lived under
high pressure. One day is like another.
In school it is rush from one study to
another; in business life it is rush from
one duty to another-hurry through one
money-makipg scheme and take up one
of greater extent. Genuine enjoyment
is unknown, and what little recreation is
taken is of hysterical character and lie
even more exhaustive than work. This
manner Of life fastens itself upon the
women, and they are slaves to the de-
mands of fashion and society just as
much as the men are ground to death by
the wheels of mammon. Is the flame
worth the candle? Is such life worth
the living?
A return to simpler life is the only
escape for the impending general smash
up, but the ambitions of men and women
will not permit any Stacking of the speed,
and some day in the future there will be a
display of pyrothechnics in the civilized
world that will compel a readjustmeut
of life.
