The Secretary replied that he did not see any great hardship in the case stated, as a bank could easily make a loan for a few days to purchase the new. bonds., and then sell their old ones if necessary. As to the market being flooded with bonds, there were only two hundred and twenty. live millions required to be exchanged lb one year, and as this was a rate consider ably less than one million per day, he thought there was no danger but what the investment would cover that amount in that time. The Secretary saw no rea son to fear a financial panic from. the proposed change in the securities of the banks, and could not, therefore accept the suggestion that the clause relating to the same in the fending bill should be changed. —Toe strikers on the government canal at Keokuk have returned, hut aro again out,of employment, the rapid rise In the riverhaving swept away the em- 1 , bankment, flooded the works and buried the engines, machinery and materials Is the yards. immanse Ices will be caused to the contractora and overone thousand ' men kept out of employment for weeks, perhaps months. —Soyeral deaths are rpported on the frontier during the groat snow storm lasting from the 11th to the 16th. 1 one cage a house was burned, and a woman and three children escaping with only a quilt to protect them, soon died In the avow.
