Almost daily announcements arc made In
the ii'-wspnpcrs, of the closing of savings
bunks and other similai institutions, either
through bail management or dishonesty on
the part of their olllcers. The mills of the
Ciols are grinding exceeding fine. A large
number A Insurance Companies hive been
swept out of existence, aud tho history of
frauds that have been cirried 011 for t.nrs
without being (inspected, has been mailo
known. Jlen like John r. Moitou,
the bite l'resideut of the I'eriuarien' Kxhibi-
tion and of tho Market street railway, tncii
honored and tiusted by their fellow citizen-,
have been flrawn into tho hopper, and their
hopes and reputations ground to powder,
The Hunslnger trial at Heading, which oc
cupied fourteen weeks.has shown how many
dstablisluneuts like Hiirisinger's bank have
been conducted, and bow tho earnings of
many ii ior depositors have been fqu.inilered

not this reckless vvnsio by person
entrusted with tho funds of otheis

have been so few prosecutions for such crimes.
Wealthy and inlhienlial friends interlete
and the coiirre af justice i blocked. Is there
no speeilio for this sort of thing? Most
assuredly there is. If pioccuting ol!icer,

Columbia County is in an agricultural dis-
trict. It is dependeut only upon itself for
country produce, and through not a large
grain growing, butter making, or (.tattle
raising section, the supply of tho;o articles
is nearly if not quite tqual to the home tie-
mand. It is more prospfrotn than many
other counties because it is not entirely de-
pendent upon tho mineral productions id"

two kinds of waves or undulations aro pro

it comes to soundings, it carries with it to the
