He secured a loan of $)00 from the Kimball Champ Investment company, giving a mort- gageon a lot of cattle and sheep. The greater part of this property he has disposed of, and the loan agents caused Parker's ar- rest on the charge above stated. Parker was defended by L. T.

DELUSION OF A NAME, THE How ths Word “Nitionnl” May be Used for Swindlers to Hide Behind—he Duty of Congress. National Bank Circulation. WASHINGTON, Jan, 23.—[Spicial to Tne BEk. | —There is no question before congress at this time of greater importance to the country than that reiating to national banks. [n point of fact this question involves the silver, the gold, the nutional debt und every other issue affecting finunce, and relates one of the most important planks in the re- publican platform, The success or failure of any one of the various branches of the quostion—the 1s suance of new bonds for . basis of vircala tou, the increase of circulation upon bonds deposited with the treasurer, the authoriza- tion of bullion as a sccurity for circulation, the decrease of the tax on circulation—may bring success or defeat o any one of the other financial prob. lems before congress. The greatest of whe questions involved is, of course, shall the national banking system be maintatned by providing a new ‘basis for circutation, or shall 1t be permitted to die a natural death, in permitting the maturity of outstanding bonds without providing another basis for circulationt Viewed in any light the borrower has to the penalty of inaction. Money, like v other commercial commodity, finds its If plenty, interest is low ree, discounts are proportionately high; the bur den falls upon the pesson who horrows. ‘' proposition to decrease from £50,000 to £10,000 the winunim of capital stock for na. tional bunks in small places ruises an iuter esting question. Thero is before the house imittecon banking and currenc nd - the senate commit tee on finance a measure in duplicate mauking this suggestion. Upon this question and the entire national bank problem Mr. Fletcher S, Heath a well-known and expe- rienced private and national banker at Humil ton, O., bas submitted to the nouse commit tee on banking and currency a most interest- inzargument. Mr, Heath in the course of his observation savs: “‘Should the bill providing for the orcani- zation of national bauks with a leas capital than $50,000 become a law it ean but prove un wcentive for the organization of nutional banks for purposss bordering upon fraud. And further, it will induce men who character, either fiancially or mor: engage 1 banking in villag 3 of the national rovernment secure the good faith and credit of the people, be under the sume laws and enjoy the same privileges given banks doing business for legitimate purposes, aud who have, and rightly, too, the confidence of their patrons. *“I'ne caief objection to this banks may be organizzd in villages of from 1,000 to 2,000 popalation where the people are v of banks that do not bear the national rd ‘national’ amoug country ana village toiks is often magic, and espe- cially through those séctions where banks do not prevail. There are many wen who to my personal knowledee would tuke advan- tage of this bill, wero it to become a law, for the purpose of estab selves crodit ana to procure tunds to carry on their spacu- Iations. ‘Lhe deposit of such banks with a pital of say §10,000 in the average town of 1,500 population in Ohio or Indiana would probably azgregate an average of §100,000. If there are men who wish to embark in the banking business they should be made to establish their character, and their credit should be, beyond suspicion. ) I am sbeaxing wiolly of country banks and bankers. It is uunecessary to have na- tional banks in villuzes uimed at in this bill to ufford proper banking facilitics. Private banks in such places are safe auxiliarics to national bauks, stand in the community according to the various responsibilitics of the persons operating them. It would be better to increase rather than dimicish the minimum capital of national banks. “T'here must be some legislation to revive natiousl bank interests if the system and cir- sulation ane maintained, While the number of national banks and their relation have greatly increased during the past few years their basis, circulation, whicn is the connect- ing link to the federal government, has rapily diminished. The approaching ma- turity of the 41¢ per cent bands and the very high premiumn on the 4s, the fluctuating market for both, muake the circulation of banks unprofitable,unreliable and wholly un- desirable. No better vroof of this assertion is wanted than the fuct that during the past decada the circulating medium of national bunks has d sed about one-balf. Tne banks throughout the ¢ountry are reduciag their ¢reulation 10 the mmimum, and all pew bauks being orzanizad uccept the mini- mum, “I se2 by the report of Comptroller Lacoy thut the minimum deposit of bonds required of the 2,20) national bauks in_operation on Septewber 30, 1839, was §5, upon which only §35,76 of national bauk circn- Istion could be i 1; thav on this date thase banks held § 71,700 of bonds and wereresponsible for §42,653,045 of circulation moro than the miniwum. This circulation instaad of being $55,000,000 could have been, were the muximum tion taken out, &350, , or #4005, more than the present circulation, ‘National banks are notalone interested in this demand for relief. Every person compelled to borrow or submit to discounts is nterested, A stringency fu the circulat- g medium means, of course, an increase of iuterest to borrowers. The discounts in New York and the great flnaucial centers gener- ally bave beer high auring the past year, and the circulation of banks has increased wore than av any time 1n the history of the country since the war, ‘“Leogislation intended to provide a better basis for national bank circulation is a relief w the people as a body. I am fully aware that there is a prejudice entertained by a large class of honest-minded people ugainst any action by congress wnich will even indi- rectly ussist national buuks, yet the same people are constantly clamoring for more money. ‘They seem to foreet that there are only certain ways in which the government can increase the supply of money.

CLEANLINESS, An Essontial Factor in the Preservas tion of Good Health, One of the greatest factors to serve heulth is opan_ air exercise, and another essential to beauty is cleanli- ne which is indeed next to godiiness, writes Bmma Howard Wight in Hall's Journa of Health, Some one will per- haps exclaim in regard to the latter point: “Oh, that cannot be. Look at the gypsies and some uncivilized s WO pay no attention whatever to clean- liness, and yetnmong them you will find splendid specimens of beauty.” Ve true, but is it not a beauty to which “distance lends enchantment?” It quite n charming picture to stand off and look at # gypsy encampment, the splendid forms of the men, the rich, dark beauty of the women, the bright, picturesque costum the dark, dimpled, half-clad little chil- dren tumbling ubout on the grass. But approach nearer, and if you are fairly fastidious the charm vanishes. You lose sight of the fact that the man are splen- didly formed, the women darkly beauti- ful, the costumes picturesque, and the babies dark-skinned cupids, when you see the uncloanhiness which pervades all. The homeliest milkmaid, going for her cattle, in her spotless cilico dress, with her fresh, clear skin, would be a far loveliersight,and one to which you would turn with relief and pleasure. As cleanliness is a promoter of benuty it would be well to speak of the subject of bathing. T know to advoeate frequent bathing is to go agaiust the prineiple: of nova few physicians, also againsy the practice of our grandmochers, who would never have dreamed of breaking their fixed rule of a weekly Saturday night bath, and, perhups sugeestions of one during the weeic. But, though we have been irequently. told that the world has degenerated since thei young day, and that they never this thing nor that thing which do nowadays (which is very true doubt) nevertheless, in these days of more frequent bathing I tt we have, in this respect, improv on them. In the first place, the body is constantly throwing off poisonous mat- ter, especially during sleep, which accumulates on the eutisvera, or outer <in, and without frequent bathing the tem re-absorts this poisonous matter, Ml‘ certainly connot be conducive to 1t icians maintain thing is bad for persons with weak stitutions; but can it improve the poor health of these persons for the system to re-hosorh the poisonous matter thrown off by the body, proba- pre- girls that frequent bly more poisonous be of their weak or diseased conaition? The frequent sponging of the body in a solution of alcohol and ter is most beneficial. A quick cold spouge bath and an energetic vubbing of the body with a flesh brush or coarse towel are most invigorating to & weuk constitu- if taken daily and systematically, thus bringing all the muscies into play and sending the blood tingling through the veins. “A warm bath taken before retiring, cleansing the skin of the poi onous matter thrown oft, as well as of the dust and dirt accumulated dur- ing the day, is soothing and resting to the tired nerves and indvces sleep. The Turkish bath has become quite the fashion. It is a luxury in itself, and most bencficial to the complexion. Some physicians pre- seribe it for certain kinds of diseases, but others are eloquent in their denun- ciations of it. A celebrated dermatolo- gist of England says that the reason that some physicians oppose it is vhat the Turkish™ bath will both cure ana prevent disease by simple and natural means. A cold plunge in the morning, on arising, is also of great benefit to the complexion. Sick headnche, billious nausea, cos tiveness, are promptly and agreeabi, banished by Dr, H.

Fayal Maidens Flirt De iperately from Balconies of Taeir Housvs, Balconies in the Azores ureas umi- versal in Havana, Lisbon or Madrid, Some project from supports of carved stone; others rest with an airy insecur- ity upon fancifully wrought® timbers; and still others may be seen in the dain- tiest patteros into which 1ron und brass may be wrought. All are latticed; and in this lattice work are odd litte slides and gates. From these, as you pass, you will cateh glances from fair eyes, and often see smiles and coquetting looks from lovely roguish faces, The Fayal maidens must not iook upon you in the street, but so- cial custom gives them the bless2d right to flirt with you desperately from the lofty and safe outposts of their balco- nied alcobas, The court-vards or sagaos have an in- viting look torough these carelessly kept entradas.
