This com- paay, commonly known as the Freedmen's Bank, Was chartered Dy a act of Congress approved Mareh 3 1865, for the benefit of the most liliterate and Impoverisned class of citizeas possible, the freed slaves, There was a large number of incor- orators, among them being many of the Govern- ment’s highest oMicials, The avowed object of the undertaking was to organize and maintain a savings Dank to recelve the small deposits of negroes, with the Idea of encouraging them to industry and thrift. In order to give the scheme as far-reaching effect as possibie the bank Nas owasized ons multiple plan, the central OMce “veg stationed at Washington, with branches located in thirty-three other cities, ali Dut two Detag in the South. These cities were as New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Al- Nortoik, Richmond, and Lyncuburg,Va.; Raleigh, and Wilmington, N. C.; Bead- fort and ‘Charleston, $.

Each "pank had a separate organization with different ocers, Dut ali were bound by the same rules and forming & part of the generai company. ‘A RUSH OF DEFOSITORS. Organized as it was, under an act of Congress, and officered by Governmens ofticiais, confidence tm the new concern came quickly and with it a flood Of depositors, eager to put thelr paltry scrapt iba place that was more secure than the stoc iug-hevi or the fireplace. As Une money fowed in Xt Was placed In investments that Were calculated to draw sufficient Income to pay the enormous expenses of the great organization. These lovestinents were all directed by the central Dank. f them Were wisely placed in established Schemes that gaVe sure profits on the tuvested capiial, while otuers were foolishly put into new Schemes with golden promises and no foundatioy, ‘These latter investments did not burt the bank at Hirst, out their effect became apparent a few years later, when money became a little tight and tunes Degais to grow harder and harder. Then there ‘Were occasional Tuns om the bank; now at this city, then at that, and st became necessary, tu order to get the cash to pay the calling deposilors, Sell Out some of the Investments, In many in- ances at ru.nous sacrifices, In fact, the money c of IST4 Was at 108 height, Dankagwere failing Jonerory dercetion, gotug down. like bricks tac mand ou edge imu ulne.

The assets were turned into available cash as possible, and on the 1st day of Novem. the irst dividend of 20 per cent was declared In favor oi the depositors.

To Judge by the edivorial approval te plan has received from the leading Journals of all classes and shades of opin- jon, from Boston to San Francisco, it would seem that tne bill for the national “zoo” 1s one which {t considered wholly non-partisan, and destined to receive the hearty support of both par- ues, Thus far the prospects of Senator Beck’s plan are highly gratifying to the public. People Who for twenty years have earnestly desired to see a great zoological garden established in the national capital are now saying toeach other with pleased surprise, “Well, I believe we are really go- ing to have a ‘z00" after all!” LOCATION OF THE Z00. Above is presented a map of a purtion of north- west Washlogton and the Rock Creek region, on which the location of the proposed park fs clearly indicated. ‘The tract of land enciosed tu the small paralleiogram 1s not intended to represent the size or shape of the park, but merely the area in which the site of the park is to be selected. While tt ts Impossible to say at present Just where the Doundaries of the tract will be marked out in case the amendment passes, It has been ascertained that Senator Beck hus’ devoted a great deal of careful study vo the locality, and bas devertuined, in his own mind, the exact ‘form and location ot the tract watch suouid be devoted to the pur- poses of the park ia order to make the institution Of the greatest possible DeneNt vo the public. It is believed by Senator Beck and others who are Interested in the plan, that the colored cemetery on the Adain’s Mill road should form one corner of the park. Starting at the south st corner of the cemetery, just on the north line of Cuiffeourne Place, the” proposed boundary runs almost due north, passing in tront of tue old quarry, but along the eust bank of the creek, and after describing an angle toward the norLuwest, In Ji> ey NAL ZOOLOGICAL PARK.

From thence the southern boundary descends along the bed of a little ravine to the level of the creek valley, trends southeast, crosses the creek on a line with'the southern wall of the colored cemetery, which from thence east- ward forms the southern boundary of the park, THE AREA THUS RXCLOSED contains 121 acres, and since so much of 1t ites in the valley, and 1s for other reasons unsuited for residence purposes, it 18 the opinton of competent: Judges that the tract can be purchased within the ‘sum bamed in the bill, $200," and still leave a satisfactory balance for improvements.
