THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.

The panic which struck New
York City last week when a
number of banks failed on ac-
count of having their securities
principally in worthless stocks,
was confined only to the metrop-
oils. The panic came as a result
of stock gambling, and it is well
for the country at large that
this character of speculation is
almost entirely confined to Wall
street and other banking institu-
tons of New York City. Here
the stock gambler very naturally
drifts because of the wider
range for his trading than found
anywhere else. The country at
large has suffered, it is true, by
the decline l., prices, but there
has been no failures in either the
South or the West. At one time
New York carried nearly all the
deposit accounts for the cities
aud country banks because eX-
change there was always in de-
mand. For the past ten years
there has been a shift of bust
ness to other cities and the de-
post accounts have been divi-
ded between these cities to meet
trade demands. For this reason
few of the western and South
ern banks. had large accounts in
New York and were therefore
not caught by any of the failures,
The people in beth the South
and West have shown their ut
most confidence in their banking
institutions. There has been no
cause for alarm and they have
shown none. The business of
the South was never on a better
footing, and while our principal
ENTHUSIASTICALLY suffer a
decline in price for a time, we
have only to exercise patience
and prices will be restored. The
world must have our cotton and
it is a question Of only a few
months when the demand for it
will be pressing.

When | gets a old as you?
An a do re fings you do?
Hope l won't be NEAR and bad.
But do zactly like you, dad"
All, the sweet idolatry
In that childish speech l see!
Though it sends a joyous thrill
Through my spirit, darling, still,
When that loving speech l hear
Wakes within my heart a fear.
What if everything l do
Should be copied, dear, by you?
Would have your tongue to say
What mine utters day by day?
Would have your baby feet
Always follow mine, my sweet?
What if you should some day be
Just a counterpart of me?
From so many deeds I've done
would Aua,d thee, little one.
Aye. the path I'd choose as mine
| would have thee as a man
Builded on a better plan.
Fewer things in after years
To regret with bitter tears.
Surely. darling, from this day
l must choose a better way
Be more gentle in my speech,
Strive a truer life to teach
Try in every way l can
To make you a noble man,
Finding when the years have passet
And you are a man at last,
All that's best of me and true
Mirrowed in the heart of you.

The market is bare of oil, and
seed will be in great demand
