The Caaadiai Bank System.
So much has been said of the Can
adian bank system, its flexibility and
the safety >t secures for its circula
lion that, id view of the possible
abolition of the 10 per cento tax on
our State banks and the revival of
State banks thronghout the country,
unless some new arrangements are
made to continne the natioual t anks,
the following account of the Cana
dian law, as furnished by Mr. W. C,
Cora well of the Bank of Buffalo,
New York, to the Springfield Re; ub-
lican may lie found to be interesting;
Canadian banks, under the amend
ed law of *801, can isciie currency to
the amount of their paid up capital
They can at any time withdraw till
or any part they ohoose of that cur
rency or they can Issue currency up
to u fixed amount and can call it In
at their pleasure, In 1801 there
were thirty-eight Canadian banks,
having more than four hundred
branehei icattered all over the Da
minion. The parent banks, through
tbeir branches, give flexibility to the
system by gathering up the money
lying idle iu one locality and sending
it where it is in demand. By this
method of regnlating the distribution
of the currency the variation of rates
of interest Mr. Cornwell states to be
only 2 per cent.
The safety of the Canadian bank
circulation U secured by the law of
1801. First svery bonk note has be
bind it the Mists of the bsnk. Sec.
ond, each stockholder is made liable
for twice the amount of hil itook.
Third, a fund called a bank circula
tion redemption fund, ii held and
dietribuied by the Dominion govern
ment. This fand il ttltttle Hp from a
tax of 5 per cent, paid by each bank
on the average amount of its notes
la circulation for the twelve mouths
previous to July 1 of each year. If
their fund falls below a certain pro
portion of the total bank circulation
an additional 1 ner cent, is assessed
on that circulation, The govern
ment allows the banks 3 per cent in
terest on their contributions to this
fund. If a bank suspends its notes
draw interest at 6 per cent, until
they are redeemed. If not redeemed
by the receiver within two months
they are paid upon presentation by
the government oot of the redemp
tion fund. Mr. Cornwell estimates
the security bshind each dollar of
Canadian bank currency to be nine
dollars, judging from the visible as
sets in 1891 of the banks issuing cur*
rettcy and exclnsive of the atockhold-
ers’ liability or the redemption fund.
The Dominion government exercises
no supervision over the banks. That
is left to the banks themselves, each
bank having an inspector who ex
amines its brunches.—Baltimore

“Some queer accidents happen in this

taker, who was talking shop in the La

atrocions crime was committed In Cleve

and jailed, bnt succeeded in effecting his
escape. Nothing was heard from him
for fifteen years, though the world was

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN ASTRONOMY.
Without InttrumenU Ancient Astrono
mer* Kept Truck ef the llenreu*. ,
We find in the table at the Ramessemn
distinct references to the bull, the Hon
and the scorpion, and it is also clearly
indicated that at that time the Sirins rose
holiacallv at the beginning of the rise of
the Nile.
This word beliacully requires a little
explanation. The ancients, who had no
telescojies and had to nse their horizon
as the only scientific instminent which
they isMwessed, were very carefnl in de
termining the varions conditions in
which a star conld rise. For instance, if
a star were rising at the same time that
the snn was rising, it was said to rise
cosmically, bnt nnless certain very obvi-
ens precautions were taken the rising
star would not lie seen in consequence of
the presence of daylight.
It is quite clear that if we observe a
star rising in the dawn it will get more
and more diflicnlt to observe the nearer
the time of snnrise is approached. There
fore what the ancients did was to deter
mine a time before snnrise in the early
dawn at which the star conld be very
obviously and clearly seen to rise. The
term "heliacally rising" was coined to
represent a star rising visibly in the
dawn-therefore liefore the snn. Gener
ally tbronglwmt Egypt the snn was sup
posed to be something like 10 degs. be
low the liorixon when a star was stated
to rise heliacally.
We find then that more than 8,000
years ago the Egyptians were perfectly
familiar with these fact*, and the differ
ence lietweeti n cosmical and heliacal
rising was perfectly clear to them. Bnt
the table at Thebes tells ns, moreover,
that the snn's jonraey In relation to tome
of the Kallacal constellations woe peri
fectly familiar 8,000 years ago.
' These then are sow* of the more
general statements which may be made
with regard to the most important polnte
so far disenssed by those who hare dealt
with Egyptian astronomy, and it may
le added that all this information has

The varions apparent movements of
