Dehaney.
They met by accident, and now they
fought, not with sword and riflo, but with
long and deadly hunting knives, they
tripling, twining and twisting on the
greensward.
At last the Tory is down down on the
turf, (vith the knee of the Continental up
on his breast the upraised knifo flashed
death in has face!
'Quarter 1 1 yield !' gasped the Tory, as
theknee was pressed upon his breast 'spare

'My brother.' said the patriot, in a tone
of deadly hate, 'my brother cried forquar.
leron the night of Paoli, and even as he
clung to jour knees, you struck that
knife into his heart. 0,1 will give you

rised for the blow, and his teeth were
clenched with deadly hate, he paused for
moment, then pinioned the Tory's arms,
od with a rapid stride, dragged him to
uw veree of the rock, and held him quiv
ering over the abyss.
'Mercy !' gasped the Tory, turning ashy
lle by turn.-, as that awful gulf Yawned

erious earnest by the terror-stricken To

etious thought, the patriot consented.
Iebouudthe Tory's arm still tighter,
rlnced him on the rock again, and led him
otjie uoods. A qu:et cottage, embossed
"mong tree, broke on their eyes They
wtered the cottage. There, beside the
leio'.ate hearth-stone, sat the widow and
ber children. 1
She sat there, a matronly woman of
'lout thirty. thr.eo years, with a face sha-
Why care, a deep, dark eye, and long
Mck hair, hanging in a disheveled state
taut her shoulder. On one side was s
Jarkhaired boy of some six years, on the
other side a cirl one year younger, with
ijht blue eyes. The lhble an old and
'werable volume lay open upon the
mother's lap. And now the pale-faced To

The city of Mongomery, the capital of
Alabam.i, has assumed such a sudden im
portance as the capital of the Southern
Confederacy snd the seat of the federal
operations of the new government, that
we give below a brief sketch of its locality
and surroundings. It is situated on the
left bank of the Alabama river, 331 miles
by water from Mobile, and is 839 miles
from Washington, D. C. It is the second
c'ty in the State in respect to trade and
population, and is one of the most flour
ishing inland towns of the Southern
States, possessing great facilities for com
munication, with the surrounding country .
For steamboat navigation the Alabama
river is one of the beet in the Union, the
largest steamers ascending to this point
from Mobile. The city is also the wes
tern termintlion of the Montgomery and
West Toint Railroad. It contains several
extensive iron foundries, mills, factories,
large warehouses, numerous elegant stores
and private residences. The cotton whip
ped at this place annually amounts to
about one hundred thousand bales. The
public record were removed from Tusca
loosa to Montgomery in November, 1847.
The Stale House was destroyed by fire in
18-19, and another wae erected on the
same sito in 1851. The present popula
tion of the city is not far from 10,000, and
it is probable that with all its natural
advantages, and of its present selection
as the Southern cppital, it will soon place
it in the first rank of Southern cities.

BANKING.
From the Solentiflo American (Now York.)
There is nothing simpler than a bank.
A number of persons who have tnonev to
iena on interest tind several advantages in
clubbing together and putting their moaty
into a common fund; they constantly
form an association with this aim, and
such an association is called a bank. The
management of the fund is intrusted to
experienced buiiness men who ar ac
quainted, or who can make themselves
quainieu, wun the wealth or poverty of
persons applying for the use of any part of
the lund, in order that it may be loaned
to those who are able to repay it again with
the interest agreed upon for its use.
Theseaspociations generally have money
coming in and going out daily, and it is
necessary to provide iron boxes or strong
stone closets for its safe keeping, and
when these are provided, any person in
the community who has a sum of money
which ho does not want immediately, is
apt to ask tho favor of having it placed in
the bank vaults till he wants it. The
number of persons who thus huve money
which the do not require for immediate
use, and the sums which are constantly
left with the various banks for safe keep
ing is surprisingly hirge. The matagers
soon find by experience that as a portion
of these doposits are withdrawn others are
brought, in, and there is thus a Wee
amount constantly on hand. As business
men of property, who can make safe notes,
are constantly calling for more money
than the capital of the bank amounts to,
the directors loan a portion of these de
posits, taking care always to keep enough
money on hand to pay any depositors who
are likely to call for it. As the bank pays
nothing to the depositors for the use of
their nicney, and as they get interest from
those to whom they loan it, thev are gen
erally ablo to make a profit in this way
more than enough to pay the expenses of
rent, cleik hire, ic.
Besides the inlerehtobtainod for money
which is left with thert- for tafe kccpini?.
lhS.J'n.H.i.!1Jl.2.?.noi!,!:.?.,?r,, of in
tain banking companies became thor
oughly established, the discovery was marie
that they could buy gold and silver, or
other articles of value' with their notes,
and if they mado these notes in small
amoi;r.ls, they would pass from hand to
hand in exchange for merchandise, the
same as coin, and that a certain amount of
them would remain constantly in circuit!?

notes not on interest with merchants and

profit. Of course the banks must kcpp
some sjiecie on hand to pay any ot these 1
notes that may bo presented for payment,
as they are all constantly due, being pay-
able on demand. As the bank obtains r.o
interett for the specie which is in its
vault', there is a constant temptation to
diuiish this below a safe sum, and the
numerous failures of banks to pay their
notes when th y were presented, prompted
the Legislature of this Stnto to riuire
overy bank issuing notes to deposit secu
rity for their payment with an oTicer of
the Ptate. As the security required con
sists of State stocks, mortgage, &.C, which
draw interest, and as the bank notes draw
no interest, tha banks make the profit on
their circulation in the same way that they
did before the passage of this useiul law.
When a banking company loam money
to a merchant, it is customary to take out
the intorest at the time of making th'
loan, ciwiiitir.g out the interest, or ilitcounl
ing it as ii is called ; hence the term dis
counting has ionic to be applied t the,
transaction of making (he loan, and the
whole amount of money out at interest il
embraced in bank returns umlor the term
of discounts. The banks of this State are
required to publish a statement weekly of
their average deposits, circulation, dis
counti and specie, for the week. The
statement for the weak ending February
23, of the condition of the banks of this
city, is as follows :

ConfeiionofaHnrdeter-An Innocent
, man nung1.
On Monday night"o7las. week, a negro
ueorge urem, died at hie home, in
Baltimore. , Previous to his death he made
a confession acknowledging that he was a
murderer, fljui stated that an Innoceut
man had ln hung for his crine. He
confessed that he murdered tho negro
King, and that the negro Cyphus, who was
hung as Ihe guilty parto, was entirely in
nocent of the crime. Oram was ntfnrL,i
with eicknws'Wie few weeks ,ince, and
continued to grow worso until Monday
night when it became evident that he
must die.
I'tiring his illness he appeared much
digressed in mind, and when he found
that he wculd surely die, ho called some
friends near him and made his confession.
At the time the murder took place Orem
was engaged in selling Oysters through the
cuy, anu Aing was in his employ. The
day
previous Oitin had a quarrel with
King, and the former then determined to
tike tho hitter's life. Orem was also en
gaged in butchering, and was in the habit
of carrying his butcher knife in his pocket
on mo back part or his pantaloons. On
the night of the murder he placed his
knife in this pocket and Marled for the
house in Wagon alley, where the tragedy
was enacted. When the dilliculty com
menced, Orem feized the first opportunity
to plunge the butcher knifo into Kin"
Killing Inm instantly. JIe then made his
escape. The negro Cyphus ws arrested
on the charge of committing the murder.
