The United States deposlts which were separately stated in the re- turn for the purpose of making compuld- tions on the new basis showed decrease of s135, 300 It seems quite possible that this decrease was due to the transior ol government deposits from New forK 10 some of the interior depository banks. Taken as a whole the statement was almost featureless. It does not appear that the banks generally took advantage of the release of reserve against deposits of public funds to expand their credits at least to any great extent If at all ana the statement indicated that very con servative policy had been pursued py those institutions.

New York, Oct. 1.-The Fnancier says: The official statement of the New York associated banks was last week made up on two bases of computation In one from the deposits were reported plus those of United States funds. which amounted to $4O 633, 400; in the other form the latter were deducted from the net deposits. The computation made upon the first named basis showed q decrease of $29l. $50 in surplus reserve, carrying this item to $l,- 527, $50: the computation upon the basis of United States deposits deducted from the net deposits showed a decrease In re- serve of SI25, ,525 to $ll.6S5, 700 this reserve the previous week having been $l2,Oll, 525
 The loans of the banks were increased g. 344 200, probably the result in part of syn dicate operations during the week. The cash showed a net decrease of S25o,70O specie having been augmented $l,O6S. 300, while legal tenders fell off Sl l,3l9.O O00 This not loss O. cash notwithstanding the large traceable receipts during the week can scarcely be accounted for on the theory of averages and therefore the loss is somewhat inexplicabe It seems almost certain, however. that considering the fact that receipts were largest after the middle of the week the banks were better supplied with cash than appeared by the statement.

Important Land Decision.

Astoria, October l3.--Judge Mcbride
convened an adjourned session of the
circuit court this afternoon and handed
down a number of formal orders. The
most important OF these was in the case
of G. L. Houston and j. +. Ferguson VS.,
George Kaboth, in which a judgment
was given the plaintiff, and the defend
ant was allowed go days in which to file
bill of exceptions. This suit was
brought to set aside deed to lot in
the business portion of the city, given
by the county to the defendant, who had
purchased it at the recent sale of prop
erty held by the county for taxes. In
giving his decision the court said that
no affidavit was on file showing that the
sheriff had made any attempt to levy on
the personal property owned by the
holder OF the real estate in question, as
is required by law, before selling the lot
for taxes, and therefore the original sale
OF the property to the county was void.
The court also held that while the sale
to the defendant had been made under a
special act of the legislature, he did not
believe the legislature had authority to
pass law correcting errors of this kind,
and as the first sale of the property was
void the second sale was also void. This
decision is of considerable interest to
the public, as it will invalidate large
number of deeds secured at what
is known as the dead horse" tax sale.

new carrier,is certainly entitled to much
credit for this enterprise. He has in
vested at least $50 more than was neces
sary to deliver the mail, but not in al
good shape as it now comes. And
it seems to me that subscription paper
should be circulated among his patrons
along the route, to reimburse him in q
small way, now that the mail comes to
the reader in first-class shape. The
writer will start it with 81.
Davenport Bros. for several days, have
