Ellis, Bank SBuperintendent, New York, the deposits and dis- counts in Htate banks in ew York in the past fircal year have fallen short over five million dollars below that of the preceding year. In his voluminous report he submits sev- eral valuable suggestions, some of which are equally applicatle to Ne- braska. He says the laws which provide for the taxation of bank capital be made more clear in their terms, and be 80 framed that banks shsll Dot be inequitably and excess- ively taxed in comparison with oth- er property of equal value. He adds: The long-continued depres- sion of business has tended to dis- courage the formation of new banks. Capital has sought permanent in- vestments rather than active em- ployment in trade. The wants of the community for bauking facilities bave been amply supplied, and the present outlook for an increase in the number of banks in the State is Dot Oattering. Capital, ever watch- ful of its own interests, will not be wanting for banking purposes whenever & revival of trade shall ‘warraot its profitable use.” With a final settlement of the pending politieal problem, and a clearly de- fined national policy in regard to a speedy resumption of specie pay- ment, we may look for a healthy and lasting improvement in busi- ness activities. Until then, the cloud of fear and doubt which has ‘hung over the business community for the last three years will hot be ifted, and commerce, now palsied, will Jook in vain for reat and per- are trying to w out thew out of ! ler.

A few days ago the BER contain- ed in its telegrams an account of a death 1u a dentist’s chair, resulting from the administration of chloro- form.

Mauchester, N. H., Jan. 7.—The announcement than five cents ad- mission would be charged to the evening service of the Tabernaole Metbodist Chureh created some cu- riosity, aud the first experiment is said fo have exceeded the expecta- tions of the pastor. The services were held at Smythe’s opera house, on Elm street, and a large number of young people have been in the habit of stiending out of curiosity, us the services are somewhat seusa- tional, a large orchestra being in attendance. The church is sup- ported by subscriptions and con- tributions, and latterly the contri- bution box hus been nlied with gum drops, lozenges, buttons, &c. The running expenses are about $50 per saboath, and probably $20 for the evening service. Last Sabbath the »ntribuiions amounted to $4. The plan of charging an admission fee was adopted to circumvent the trifiers. Tickets were cold by ail tue druggists, aud a large uumber of o tickets are emd to have been purchased. Many siips left in tbe eats for names and amounts of con- tributions have formerly been re- turned bearing the names of prom- inent mewbers of other churcl with fabulous amounts subscribed. ‘Ihe five-cent plan will be continued. A Mother’s Leap for Life. From the Baltimore Amerioan. Last night, at about nive o’clock, the nelghborhood of Bouth Hano- ver et eet was alarmed by cries of fire from the house 402 Hanover street, occupied by several families. Michael Doyle, who occupied the titst fluor had retired and Jeit his ismp turned down, which suddenly exploded with a loud noise, and communicated fire to the carpets and surrounding woodwork. The occupant of the second floor, Mrs, John Rossiter, being awakened and finding the lower part ‘ of the house on fire, became greatly excited, and broke the tiont windows, cutting her bands severely. The lodger on the third tloor, Mrs. Michael Hernberg, hast- iry throwing her clothes about her, rau to the window, and calling to those below to be oa the alert, threw out her infant child six months old, which wes safely caught without injury. She then nungout of the window and jumped herseif a distance of thirty feet and over, and, strange to say, 8ppeats to nave received no injury of any ac- count. —— The Decatur-Barron Duel. Rochester Democrat and Chrenicle. 1 observe in one of the re‘ent issues of The Democrat and Chron- icle & long article on navy duels. U'be author, however, omits what may be called the most important attair of the kind in the history of the navy. I refer to the fatsl meet- ing between Commodore Barron and Commodore Decatur, which occurred March 20, 1820." It is s point of peculiar interest in this affair that both parties beld the office of Commodore, and that both fz1l at the tirst fire, Decatur was killed. Barron was severely wounded and only recovered after four months’ iliness. Another point of interest is the cause of the fight, which was ssmply Decatur’s oppo- sition to Barion’s appointment to service in the navy. Barron was fifty-two at the time, and Decatur wes ten vears younger. The duel made & great sensation at the time, and is the most important affair of tiie kind since the death of Hamil- ton. Barron died in 1850, bewng then in his eighty-second year, and having sttained the highest position in the American navy. ——— A Leg Gone and No Redress.

The boy asked him to stop the car, but the ariver whipped up the hor- ses. Day fell under the wheels and hisleg was crushed.

Wao Lee had long wanted & horse witk which to collect and de liver his “laundry” work about city, and during last week came t the conclusion to buy one. O Wednesday evening, while almi Iy strolling by the Kennard House, hetheard the pool-seller sbouting, “How much for Nullerton, gentle: men; how much for Fullerton? 1 am ouly offered $40 for this horse; the Maid sold for §100! Who uyl $45 for Fullerton!” Now Wan, in his travels, hed | heard something about fast hol .and knew that, Fullertap was slouch,” as the sayingis. So when he saw a_chance to buy him—as it struck his heathen intelligence— for only $45, he concluded he bad better close with the bargain at| and secure a horse which could whisk his delivery wagon around at a lively rate. With a rapid nod he conveyed the knowl- | edge to the seiler that he would give the $45, and as there were no high- er bidders the purchase wes made. | Wan edged up to the stand and | asked “When me payee, and when me gette hoss?"’ “Pay now,” smd the hurried | clerk, “and come around to-morrow | for the chance.” ! “Alle light,” said Wan, as he un- rolied his pig-tail, extracted his | hard-earned mioney, and departed | with the card which secured him | the pool as far as Fullerton was con- cerned. Thursday night he was at the Kennard at the appoioted time, and saw the pool clerk, pushed his | card forward and said: “Alle light | now—ine wantee Fullerton.” “Fullerton!” said the clerk. “He didn’t win.

A commitlee was appointed to establish an exposition of Iowa in- dustries at the State capital, and re- port t the society. ‘The Secretary’s report is a lengthy and carefully prepared document in whieh the agricultural interests of the State are fully cousidered, and much valuable information impart ed. From it the following synopsis Is made: CORN. The increase in area in 1876 is 4 | per cont, or 20,000 acre~. In many sections the rainfall in June delay- ed the necessary crifivatien, and fostered an extraord::i ry growth of weeds. In Septemb-, storms were alsodisastrous. Ou low, wet ground the crop was poor, and, 1n some cases, Dot worth barvesting; wtile, o other localities the ’hoppers did much damage. 1-om all causes the crop was lessened in_yleld and im- paired in quality. There was evi- dently great loss from & careless sys. tem of cultivation. The crop being of vast importance to the State, the object should be to get the greatest quautity from the least acres. The corn product of the entire country is estimated at 1,200,000,000 bushels. The product of lows in 1675 averaged thirty-five bushels per acre, giviug a total yield of 150, 000,000 bushefs. Taking the in- creased area planted, and allowing for decreased product from causes named, the product of 1876 will be equal to that of 1875, The compar- ative price of corn December 1, since 1872, has been: 1872, 18c; 1873, Ble; 1874, 43¢c; 1875, 7e, 1875, 3bc. For several years our exports bave not reached 4 per cent., while it has been reduced be- low 1 per cent. WHEAT. In June the wheat crop promised to be_the average yleld, but at har- vest time 1t was reduced to not ex- ceeding six bushels per acrethrough- out the state. In many places it wag a total failure. The largest yield was in eomo of the grass- hopper regions. In_quality it is generally superior to that of 1875. The crop of the United States in 1875 was 290,000,000 bushels.

They Want to Buy the Herald. Springfield Repubican. New York, January 9—Last night there was & talk at a little gather. iog of prominent men as to the fu- ture of the Herald, and whether it could not be bought and placed un- der the editorship of a real jourcal- ist like Mr. Horace White. New York wants a great daily newspa- per which 1s more than a newspa- per. It is useless tostart anew one, a8 there are too many here already; one of the gentlemen thought the Tribune could be bought, but an- other was quite sure it was not worth the buying. All agreed that it Mr. Bennett would sell the Her- ald for its sctual value the capital could be raised tor its purchase in twenty-four hours. Mr. Connery, its maaaging editor, is a quiet, in- dustrious, unassuming man. all frozen up, Mr. A Mother-in-Law. Paris Paver. She had succeeded in marrying her son, and naturally undertook the management of his household Presently the son died, but she continued to advise dheet. and wor- ry generally her daughter-in-law. 'nun thedaughter-in law married again, but stll the old lady insisted | on bossing things. A friend assayed to convince her that she could have no possible right to interfere,—that the new husband ‘was nothing to her. “‘Iothing?” she cried, “be noth- ing to mn? Why.lm Inot his step- -law on his wife's side?”” | Present crop is estimated at 250,000, 000 bushels,—a decrease of 40,000,~ 000. The area sown in lows in 1875 was 3,244,954 acres; in 1876 it was 2,984,954 acres, with a yield of 17,869,724 bushels, or a decrease of over 25,000,000 bushels from 1576, The beaviest loss is in spring wheat, it belng longest exposed to climatic influence and insects. 'I'he grass- hoppers in several counties have been disastrous, and in some local- ities distress must be the result. It is evident that the wheat crop is only moderate for the world's supply, and will be insufficient for the next two years. The outlook should encourage farmers to 1m- prove every acre, s0as to bring back our soi! to 1ts wheat-growing quali- ties, and adopt the most thorough cultivation. CATTLE. Agratitying and marked improve- ment s noted in cattle in every county in the State. ‘'he beef-pro- ducing farmer is crossing the native with the Bhort Horn, and the result is Iargely to increase the weight and value; the dairyman is partial to the Jersey and Alderneys; while Herefords, Holsteins, Guernseys and Devons are receiving attentions as their merits develop. In 1875 the sale of Short-Horns was 581, at $220,000. Tn 1876 the sales reached 1,000, at $308,000. It is safe to say that nothing in the stock department will repay better than breeding Bhort-Horns. Balesof Short-Horns have increased in the Unitea States ;:d Canada from 498, al an average r head of $343, in 1870, to 4,347, at an average per head of $423, in 1876. HORSES.

The bad season decreased the yield for 1876 about 12 per ceLt. The average yield of 1875 was 27} busaels per acre, and it was valued at $3,110,177.

Ksti- | mating the cost of keeping a dog st | 8 cents per day, the cost of keeping the dog crop is $5,767,263—a sum sutliclent to porchase an equal num- ber of hogs and fatten them to 250 pounds With a State tax of $2 on each dog, the revenue would be §395,018, or nearly enough to finish the new capitol.

It has been al- lewed that “hoss.trots” killed i For two years past these hl\e been largely tabooed, and an effort made to bring the Society back to its Jegitimate purpose. The election of Col. Spofford as_president may be taken as a collapse, as he is known to be the horseman ot the state; but he isa man of progressive and enlnrx:d views, and will make an energetic and valuable officer. *The Treasarer’s report shows the expeaditures for 1876 to have been $22,299.42, or $817 54 mote than (Fe receipts. The total debt of the So- clety is $8,000. — NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE. List of Swanding Commutteos. SENATE.
