THE BANKS OF 1S57. A Little Story Brought to Mind by Reeump“Yeeterday,” said a gentleman to a News reporter, "resumption began. Bj tbo way, we’re learned eomething about money in thU country during the past twenty yeara. I remember 1857 with its wild cat banks and its generally crazy ayaUm of banking. Banks were established in out of-way places, and bank paper a as as plenty stallion adrertisements in the spring. I don’t mean to say that all these banka were dishonest, but all of them calculated largely on making money by a good proportion of their issue failing to turn up for redtmption^and to encourage this thrift they sent their money to as great a distance as possible from its home for circulation, and put as many obstacles as they could, besides the out of the way.local ions of their banks, in the road of the collectors, who gathered up tha money and appeared from time to time with car-pet-s^cks full of it for redemption in

coin.

Afttthu Banka Prepared for It—Vl»«ra of Souae er the. jKanagepa, >

The late Andrew Wilson had a bank at NashyiHe, in the wilds of Brown county, more fhan twenty miles, across hills and the ruggedest roads, from any railway. One d*v Mr. Wilson casually learned that a large amount of his bills had been gob bled up in Cincinnati, and a carpet-bagger would swoop down on him in a few days for coin. The time was too brief to allow him to get gold or silver and he was in grett trouble. The dreaded visitor ap-

time

Loav- _ _ w stranger he rushed out, went up a~fl7ght of back stairs into the office of the only notary in the town, and finding that functionary out, he pocketed the notarial seal ami walked off. Hs then boldly refused payment, and the stranger took the paper out to find a notary and make the proper protest No seal, and with this important attachment to the needed legal red tape absent nothing could be done, as it would ro^quire at least a week to communicate with Indianapolis and replace the lost seal. So the carpet-bagger ambled off, and Mr. Wilson availed himself of the respite to put his aflairs in order.

The East market was frozen out entirely this morning. * A marriage license was issoed to-day to Willis Sandera and Maggie M. Hawk. Mike Bcanilin, a west end crook, was sent to the chain gang to-day for drunken-

ness.

He will hold an examination for issuing teachers’ licenses the last Saturday in-the month. Mr. J. E. Robertson, president of the Franklin lire insurance company, who has been dangerously ill with a carbuncle, is convalescing rapidly and will soon be out. An agent of the Doane malleable iron works, the largest of the kind in the United States, is in the city looking about for a location fora branch of the establishment. The Caledonian society will celebrate the anniversary of Burns’s birthday by a banquet at Moxart ball, on the evening of the 25th inst. Judge Read will deliver an address. In the circnit court Judge Adams is hearing the application of Mrs. Martin, for the removal of Thomas Cottrell as trustee of the estate of the late Samuel Ooldsberry.

Northern Prison Report.

The report of the northern state prison for the year ending October 31, 1878, has been filed with the secretary^! state. The disbursements for the month of October account of current expenses were not reported as they were not examined by the board of directors until November 8, 1878, when it was too late to have them audited, •as the money would have to be drawn out of the state treasury after the end of the fiscal year. They will be reported in the next annual report. Average monthly ^number of prisoners, 619; reported October 31,1877, in prison, 646; received during the year from courts, 219; discharged by expiration of sentence, 282; pardoned by tho governor, 40; pardoned by the president, two; remanded for new trial, 12; died, four; remaining in prison October 31, 1878, 525. Four hundred and ninety-five are employed by contracters, all but fifty being at forty-five cents a day. These fifty make for the state thirty-five cents a day each. Of these men J. K. A J. Winterbotham and Ford,Johnson A Co., contractorf, employ the greater number,the former firm employing 125 men, the latter firm 225. The recsipts and earnings of, the prison for the year are as follows: For labor, $69,047.80; from sales $2,222 69; from rent $170.74; from visitor’s fund, $378.13; from interest, $272.93; from United States, keeping convicts, $2,335.38; total receiptefand earnings,$73,427.67.

At noon to-day a News reporter made a tour of the banks to discover what effect the resumption specie payments had upon business^ and the feeling of the mercantile CQfuinunity, -as expressed ip the Uiniactions of the banks, upon tl\? wbI iect. At the Merchant’s National bank Mr. J. P. Jr - Ctohicf, said that no difference been made between gold and greenbacks for some time, and that for two or three months gold had been received on deposit in small amounts and paid out the same way. The bank had about $10,000 on band, which had accumulated, and the officers felt no apprehensions lor the rssuTt of the experiment. A difference may be established in the future between gold and greenbacks and eilver, but there is none at present. j Mr. Ingram Fletcher, of Fletcher A Sharpe, said that resumption Vas the natural thing and that it came easily. There is no demand for coin, save for the novelty of the thing. It paases over the counter in small sums, ana the accumulation in the vaults is insignificant in

amount.

The Bank of Commerce has made no preparations for resumption; the subject was not referred to by customers during the day. A few gold notes, issued by California banks, and small amounts of gold came in during the day, but they did not so much as cause a ripple on the surface

ol business.

Mr. Kadcliffe, cashier of the Meridian

national bank said that so far had resumption been from causing a business convulsion, that the subject had not been thought of until called to his attention by the reporter. The bank is provided with legal tenders for such of their depositors as want them, but no gold has been provided tor their demands. Legal tenders are just as

good and much easier to handle.

The Indiana banking company has laid in several hundreds of the “yellow boys,’* just as a n alter of accommodation for those who called for it. Only $100 had been paid out during the morning, that

being the extent of the demand. Woollen, Webb & Co.,said Mr. Woollen,

are paying ontcoin, silver, to alt who ask for it. But there is no desire to carrv it around. Mr. Woollen said that he had no doubt of the success of resumption, and in his belief the passage of the silver bill

was the beginning of it.'

No unusual demonstration was observable at the counters of the First National bank. For several weeks this bank has been receiving and payingout gold insmall sums, providing customers with pocketpieces and for presents during the holiday season. Colonel Wiles procured the gold to pay city employes at this bank. Mr. Morrison, the president, said that he could see no reason why resumption should not be considered as permanently accomplished. Hon. John C. New, ex-president of the bank and ex-treasurer of the United States, who was in the office at the time the reporter called, in response to a request for an expression of oninmn On the subject, said: I have no aoubt that. resumption is practically and permanently accomplished. All the indications point to that conclusion. The only possible obstacle is the combination of capital to force up the price of. gold. But that contingency I take to be so remote as to be scarcely worth considering. And another thing I want to say: That without the passage of the silver bill resumption would have been impossible, and Mr. Secretary Sherman will not say to the contrary now. He appreciated the help it gave his scheme to resume and took all he could get gladly. . At the citizens’ national bank, ilessrs. Mansur and Thomas were found in the director’s room. They thought the appearance of gold in the channels of trade would be considered bv the people as was that of silver- for a time it would be a novelty and pocket pieces would be in demand. When that wore off it would be exchanged for greenbacks. Mr. Thomas wassomewhat inclined to fear Jay Gould and his* 1 clique, but otherwise thought resumption an accomplished fact. A quantity of coin had been provided by the bank but it did not melt away very rapidly under the calls of depositors. At Ritzinger’s bank the teller was found busy counting a large deposit of coin and greenbacks, and without waiting to hear shat he thought of resumption, the reporter dropued into 8. A. Fletcher A Co.’s. This Dank is always busy after a holiday and the matter had not been thought of. Having no circulation to redeem no arrangements had been made for resumption. Gold, silver and greenbacks ere taken and paid without discrimination. Two prominent gentlemen were found at this bank, who joined in the conversation. One of tnem said that the strain oa

Gnatla’s Case—Motion for a Now Trial, Judge Heller having returned from Laporta, he appeared on the bench of the criminal court this morning to hear the motion for a new trial in the case of

Guctig.

The defendant was brought into court by Sheriff Pressley and Deputy Reynolds, and appeared clothed and in his right mind. Mr. Reynolds, however, kept a seat hear him for fear he might have a relapse aud need attention. The proceedings attracted quite a concourse of spectators and the little room w here the court now sits was crowded to its utmost capacity. The motion was presented by Mr. Potte, of counsel for the defense, and was based upon fifteen re:wons, the principal ones of which were given in The News of Monday, viz: That a juror named Cleaver had been a member of a qjob raised to hang Guotig and other murderers in the jail; that an editorial in a city paper urging the infliction of the death penalty had been read to the jury after they retired to make up their verdict; and' that public sentiment affected the* verdict of the jury to the prejudice of the- defendant. The other reasons alleges! were errors of the court in ruling out and admitting testimony, failure to give certain instructions, etc. The motion was supported by numerous affidavit*, newspaper articles, sermons, etc v and altogeth :r presented a most formidable appearance. The state replied this afternoon, with counter affidavits,

stockings; and the men would carry it for pocket pieces, thus keeping large amounts of it out ol circulation. The other gentleman said that a very shrewd and experienced banker in the east had told him that the real strain would not be felt till

next summer, six months hence. D. M. Taylor, cashier of the Indiana

National bank, informed a reporter that their customers had expressed no desire for coin. A gentleman living at Bloomington checked but a few dollars to “resume” with at that point, which was the extent of the gold transactions. For several months past the bank has been gathering legal tenders against any possible contingency, and all the surplus is carried in that shape. Mr. Taylor thinks resumption was anticipated by the people several weeks ago, and it has now got to

be an old story.

Colonel M iles, city treasurer, is still paying out gold but reports that none is coming in for taxes. The telegraph companies announce that greenbacks will be rtceived at par in payment for cable messages. On the whole, resumption appears to have resumed.

Regarding the present state of the thermometer, Signal Officer Wappenhan*^^ the following information: The cold wave started early yesterday nwrning from the northwest, somewhere near Leavenworth. It made alow progress on its eastward journey, until noon, when the pace was increased materially, and about midnight it galloped down u}>on us like the charge of the six hundred. At 10:40 last night the thi.-rmometer marked 26° above zero, and five hours later it had fallen to 9° below, a variation of 35°. At7o’clock this morning the mercury had climbed up to—3°, but at 9 o’clock it had fallen back in despair, and only cheeked itself at—8°. At last reports it was gradually falling, with good chances of reaching the bottom before night. Browning A Sloan’s weather indicator stood steadily at—10° at the same time that the official instrument marked —8°. But the former is hung up against the cold side of a building, and is unprotected from the

wind.

The wind is not blowing a gale, but for all practical puniosea it is stiff enough. Twelve miles an hour of wind at several degrees below zero is cold enough to sat-

isfy a Laplander.

The average mean is 52.5°, and last year it was nearly 3° above that figure. From this the weather-wise prophesy sold weather to bring down this average. JIuring the month of December the mean barometer waa 30.082. The mean temperature was 27.0. The mean humidity waa 68.9. The highest barometer 30.596. The lowest barometer 29.455. The highest temperature was 48°. The lowest waa 12°, showing a difference of 60°. The prevailing direction of the wind was southwest, and the average rate of speed was 16 miles per hour. There were seven fair, 5 clear 19 cloudy days and 25 days on which snow fell. By a comparison of the table of terqueratures for the same month, it is found that there have been only two years since 1871 when the average thermometer was lower. In 1872 it waa 24.4 and in 1876 it waa 23.6, while this last year it only

averaged 27°.

During the year there were 185 rainy days, nearly as bad as ^alla Walla. A gentleman having oonsiderabe experience in the drug,business gives the following preparation for frozen ears, hands or feet: One ounce lime water, two ounces of olive oil and one drachm of solution of sugar of lead. It is technically called* Goulard’s extract, To be shaken up well and applied locally. It gives entire relief in five minutes. Yesterday Superintendent Hamilton^ of the water works, drove in his sleigh from this taty to Broal Ripple on the canal. Thy-*fldest inhabitants of that hadrtet gave out to see him as he rounded in at the cove, his drive being the first made on the canal for fifteen rears. J. O. Kadcliff and Albert Ridenour, each froze an ear this morning. George Falkner froze both kis ears. Ear muffs are in dstnand. A dealer explains that tbe patentee of this simple covering is making an independent fortune. He calculates they cost the manufacturer $6 a gross, fifty cents a dozen and th* lowest figures given the wholesale trade is $30 a gross, giving -the manufacturer a profit of $2 on each dozen. Some genius attempted to run in a new muff last winter, its chief recom-1 mendation to favor being a small wire screen in the centre. He said this would not' interfere with the hearing as the old muff does. It was soon discovered, how ever, that the ventilation was too large for the cold d^ys, and the ear muff reformer soon fdded ont of the market. The cold wea*ther interferes with the railway time schedule. The noon trains are nearly all late to-day, the Panhandle coming in 25 minutes behind time, while the C., H. A I. was 30 minutes and the Cincinnati 45 minutes late. While driving in from Stratford this mornitg Mr. Charles W. Brouse waa badly frozen about the ears and nose.

The indictment Jn this case was found in Floyd -ounty September term, 1878. It charged that the »l pellant on May 15, 1878, In Clark county, stole a certain dcecrihcd steer, and afterward took tha same into Floyd county May 16, 1876. Held, The dberepanoy in dates rend.rs the commission of the crime ini|>o8sible. Tbe allegation of bringing tne suer into Floyd county, which could alone give the circuit court of that county jurisdiction over the ofiense, and the grand jury of that county authority to precent the indiettaent, shows that the offense is barred by tbe statute of limitations. The precise time of the commission of the offense need not be slated in the indictment, but It must tie shown to have been within the statuto of limitations. (2 R. S. 1876. 384; sec. 56 ) The lime at which it is averred that the property was brought into Floyd county as compared with the time at which it was alleged the property was stolen in Hark county being impossible, it is as though no was alleged as to the latter averment; and re-
