TEEMS OF THE EEPUBIIC.
Jackson,Websterand Calhoun
In Iheir Palmy Iuyg.
The Great IS unification Debate in the
Senate? in January- 1S30.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SCENE BY
AN EYE-WITNESS.
Speecn of Calhoun on the "Force BUI"
in 1833 Pleo. for Soutli Carolina.
The
Words und Deeds Wlticu Have
Made these Men Immortal.
Col. Forney, in the last of his series
of " Anecdotes of Public Men," gives
the following brilliant sketch :
Three figures Andrew Jacksont
Daniel Webster, John C. Calhoun
dominated the historic period when
nullification reared its brazen head in
1S30, and cowered before the Presi
dent's proclamation in 1833. Many
other luminaries shone in that bril
liant interval, but they were the sate
lites of these supetior Ktars. Calhoun
was the cold philosopher of the fatal
theory of secession, Jackson its fierce
antagonist, and Webster the ponder
ous chuunion of the truth that the
constitution was the best conservator
of the Union. Above all the subor
dinate combatants, these three nnnie
live in supreme splendor. John
Qirnoy Adams had been overwhelm
ingly defended by Jackson in!S2S,and
Henry Clay, his Secretary of tState,
ha I feft Washington city with him
after the inauguration of Jackson, in
the spring of 1S20 ; so that neither was
in Congress when the great debate be
iruti on Foore'fl resolution, offered Dec.
29, JS29. Both, however, re-entered
the public service in 1831 Adams to
remain till his death. Feb. 23, 1S4S,
and Clay except an interval of seven
years, from 1S42 to 1S49, when he was
re-elected for six years till he died,
June, 1S52. Poole's innocent resolu
tion, the cause of bo much excitement
and such grave results, was as follows:
Resolved That the committee on
public lands be instructed to enquire
Into the expedienci of limiting, for a
Certain period, the sales of the public
lands to such lands only as have here
tofore been offered for sale, and are
subject to entry at the minimum price.
Also, whether the office of Surveyor
iensrB! may not be abolished with
out di.tr ment to tl e public service.
Mr. Webster had been a most effici
ent advocate of Adams in the previ
ous presidential election, and this
harmless resolution was made the
: pretext fora violent assault upon New
' England, and upon himself, .by the
' partisans of Calhoun, who was then
Vice President, and of President Jack
son, but, a3 the result proved, not
with the General's sympathy. The
resolution was introduced without the
knowledge of Mr. Webster, and yet
he saw no harm in its terms or pur
pose. But Mr. Benton, who opened
the debate, declared It to be an attack
upon the west, and said, "the west
must still look to the solid phalanx of
the south for succor." He also de
nounced the policy of New England
toward the west as most illiberal and,!
unjust. Col. P.obert Y. Hayne, one
of the Senators from South Carolina,
and Mr. Calhoun's confidential friend
rnir.xi.0, Ttrr
JOllOV eu lJ.r.
Benton in a speech 01
great bitterness against New England
beginning with a complimentary sal
utation to the Missouri semuor, biiu
adding that "The south would al
ways sympathise with the west." On
a previous occasion, Col. Hayne had
tried to get into a controversy with
Mr. Webster, but the suddenness of
this new assault on New England
' fiT SmT -SZ5-
warmth. One passage of this reply.
not often quoted, may be published
for its prophetic truth. It was spoken
on Jan. IS. 1830, and reads strangely,
in view of the astounding aggregate
of the succeeding forty-three years:
" And here, sir, at the epoch of 1794,
let us pause and Burvey the scene. It
is now thirty-five years since that
scene actually existed. Let us, sir.
look back and behold it. Over all
that is now Ohio there then stretched
one vast wilderness, unbroken except
b two small spots of civilized cul
tr the 0110 at Marietta, the other at
Cincinnati. At these little openings,
bardlv a pin's point upon the map.the
arm of the frontiersman had leveled
the forest and let in the sun. These
little patches of earth, themselves, al
most shadowed by the overhanging
boughs of thai H-ilderness. which had
stood and perpetuated itself from cen
tury to century, ever since me crea
tion, wore all that had been rendered
verdant by the hand of man. In an
extent of hundreds and thousands of
square miles, no other surface of smil
ing green -attested the presence of civ
ilization. The hunter's path crossed
mighty rivers, flowing in solitary
grandeur, whose sources lay in remote
and unknown regions of wilderness.
It struck upon the north, on a vast
Inland sea, over which the wintry
tamnaata rnrrrt nts on the OCeaU ; all a-
round was bare creation. It was a
fresh, untouched, unbounded, mag
nificent -wilderness. And, sir, what
is it now ? Is it imagination, only, or
can it possioiy ue laui-, ..-m.-w...
such a change as surprises and aston
ishes uswhen we turn our eyes to
what Ohio now is ? Is it reality, or a
dream, that in so short a period as ev
en thirty-five years, there has sprung
upon the same surface an independ
ent State, with a million of people?
A million of inhabitants! An a
mouut of population greater than all
the cantons of Switzerland ; equal to
one-third of all the people of the TJ
nlted States when they undertook to
accomplish their Independence! If,
air, we may jude of measures by
their results, what lessons do these
facts read us upon the policy of the
government? What inferences do
they not authorize upon the general
question of kindness or unkindneas?
What convictions do they enforce as
to the wisdom and ability on the one
hand, or the fojly and incapacity on
the other, of our general management
of western affairs? For my own part,
while I am struck with wonder at
their success, I also look with admi
ration at the wisdom and foresight
which originally arranged and pres
cribed the systeuj for the settlement
01 tue puDUo domain."
The real debato opened Jan. 21, 1830
Mr. Webster had an important case
in the Supreme Court, and one of his
fxlends (Senator Chambers, of Mary
land,) asked to postpone the discus
sion till Monday, when Col. Hayne
resisted with much vehemence. He
saw the Senator from Massachusetts
in his seat, and he could not consent
to a postponement till he had replied
to some of the observations of the
gentleman the day before. Putting
his hand on his head, he said : I have
something here which I want to get
rid of. The gentleman had discharg
ed his flre in the face 01 the Senate,
and I demand an opportunity of re
turning the shot."
"Then it was" to use the words of
a distinguished Southern"member of
Congress who witnessed the "scene
" that Webster beemed to grow taller
and larger. Folding his arms in his
own majestic manner, he said : " Let
the discussion proceed ; I am ready
I am ready now to receive the gentle
man's fire." Col. Hayne's speech,
able as it was, has been made memor
able by Webster's immortal reply.
JJe was violent and personal, Belf-eon-
nuent and arrogant, and was openly
encouraged by Vice-President Cal
houn, who sent bim notes and sugges
tions repeatedly while he was speak
ing. All the Jackson leaders stood by
applauding him Benton, Grundy,
Woodbury, Duff Greene, of the
Washington Telegraph, (Jackson's
organ), and many more. The Senate
adjourned over till Monday, Jan. 25.
1S30, when he resumed in a tone still
more belligerent and offensive. He
left nothing unsaid against Mr. WTeb
8ter. A fine person, fluent elocution,
and a melodious voice, gave point to
his invective. He laid great stress
upon Mr. Webster's change of posi
tion on the tarijr. Speakiug cf his
free trade speech in the House in 1824
he said: On that, the proudest day of
i,jsijfei Hke a mighty giunt,
he bore
away on his shouiders, the pillars of
the temple of error and delusion, es
caping himself unhurt, and leaving
his adversaries overwhelmed in ite
ruins. Then it was that he erected to
free trade a beautiful and enduring
monument, and inscribed the marble
with his name."
Tuesday, Jan. 23, 1S30 the next day
Mr. Webster rote tb replj'. So much
has been written of this historic effort
that little more need be written of it.
Never shall I forget its impression up
on my youthful mind, n r its lasting
effect upon parties. Webster must
have felt as Cineas felt after his mis
sion to ltome, when asked by his mas
ter, Pyrrhus, how the Roman Senate
appeared, wheu he said : " Like an
assembly of kings." Ho made little
preparation. He needed little, for he
was full of his subject. On the even
ing before, while reclining on his sofa,
he said, in answer to a friend, who
heard him laughing: "I have been
thinking of what Col. Hayne said a
bout Banquo's ghost, and I will get
up and make a note of it." One more
authority (his friend Charles W.
March) says his brief did not occupy
half a sheet of paper. Hayne accused
him of sleeping on his Hayne's
first speech before he replied to it.
"Yes," said Webster, "I did sleep
ou the gentleman's speech, and I slept
well ; and I slept equally as well on
the speech to which I am now reply
ing." On the morning of the 26th he
said to Senator Samuel Bell, of New
Hampshire: "You know, Mr. Bell,
my constitutional opinions. There
are among my friends in the Senate.
some whbmay not concur with them."
Bell urged him to epeak cut boldly,
adding, "It is a critical moment;
and it is time, high time, that the
people should know what this const!
tutiou is. " Then," said Webster.
4 by the blessing of heaven, they
shall learn this day, before the sun
goes down, what I think it is,"
The morning of that day will al
ways be remembered by those who
live to talk about it. As early as 9
o'clock crowds poured to the capitol ;
at 12 the Senate Chamber, galleries,
floor and lobbies were suffocatim-ly
filled ; the very stairways ware dark
with people. The hotels were over
flowing. The House was deserted.
The giant, Dison H. Lewis, then a
member from Alabama, the largeBt
man of his day, got jammed in be
hind the chair of the Vice-President,
where he could hardly see or hear;
but resolved not to miss the scene, he
broke one of the panes of glass, and
so contrived to listen to the great ef
fort. Webster was a few days over forty
eight when he replied to Hayne, who
was not quite forty. He surveyed the
scene before and around him with the
calmness of approaching victory, and
seemed tofeelthat ' Alexander lights
when he has kings for his competi
tors." His spiri s rose with the oc
casion, while his adversaries must
have felt, with Mr. Iredeil, the col
league of Col. Hayne from south Car
olina, after the latter had spoken :
"He has started the lion; but wait
till we hear his roar or feel his claws"
Time had not thinned or bleached
his hair; it was dark as a raven's
wing. " It was such a countenance,"
said a spectator, "as Salvator Rosa
delighted to paint."
Ho was an orator without being an
actor. Hisdreas was a picture ; a blue
coat and buff vest the revolutionary
colors with a wide cravat, suiting his
broad brows, caverned eyes, and olive
complexion. His first deep, mellow
tones were almost dramatic, as he ut
tered that sentence as familiar to the
American as the opening lines of the
Declaration of Independence:
" Mr. President: When the mann
er has been tossed for many days in
thick weather, and on an unknown
sea, he naturally avails himself of the
first pause in the storm, the earliest
glance of the sun, to take his latitude
aud ascertain how far the elements
have driven him from his true course.
Let us imitate this prudence, and be
fore we float further on the waves of
this debate, refer to the point from
whioh we departed, that we at least
be able to form some conjecture where
we now are. I ask for the reading of
the resolution."
As the Secretary of the State read
Senator Footcd resolution, quoted in
the first paragraph In this sketch, ev
ery head was turned to Webster, eve
ry eye was fixed upon, bira., every
heart beat with sympathy or, dread.
Theajator beheld his thoughts as- in
a mirror, and he said afterward he had
only to select them at his will. Once
Vice President Calhoun interrupted
him, and only once, for all sides were
spell-bound. He was the Prospero of
the occasion. His voice commanded,
and the multitude obeyed. Joseph
Gales, the famous editor Of The Na
tional Intelligencer, and the best re
porter of his time, took down the
speech, and Mrs. Gales wrote it out in
a large hand ; it was revised by Web
ster, arid returned the same evening.
The Intelligencer could not immedi
ately supply the demand, and soon it
appeared in other editions in different
quarters.
It was answered by senators on
both sides ; Woodbury, of New Hamp
shire; Barton, of Missouri, who bit
terly criticised his colleague, Colonel
Benton ; Clayton, of Delaware ; Rob
bins, of Rhode Island ; but the speech
of Webster satisfied the country nnd
settled nullification for the-time. The
debate closed May 21, 1830, but it left
many wounds. When Webster spoke.
the Jackson party was a unit the
democracy as powerful as the republi
can party is to-uay. It had conquer
ed everj'thing, and had really no or
ganized opposition. Mr. Webster's
speech made him a favorite with the
president. In one year Gen. Jack
son and Mr. Calhoun were malignant
enemies. Up to 1S25 Jackson was a
strict constructionist, and Calhoun for
the liberal exercise of the powers of
the federal government, including a
protective tariff. In 1831 they chang
ed positions, Calhoun declaring for
nullification, and Jackson for a strong
government. TJie conflict grew se
vere ; for Gen Jackson tolerated no
half-way support, and Mr. Calhoun
soon found himself outside the dem
ocratic lines. Jackson was re-elected
in 1832, without the vote of South
Carolina. Immediately after the re
sult was known South Carolina rais
ed the flag of nullification, and refus
ed to allow" the collection of any na
tional revenue within her borders.
Armed preparations were made in the
State. Hayne resigned his seat in the
Senate, aiid Calhoun his Vice-Presidency
three months before the expir
ation of his term. Jackson determ
ined to enforce the law. He did not
wait. Re-elected in November, he is
sued his proclamation againstthe nul
lifies on the 10th of Beeotnbsr of 1832
a paper permeated b3 his own will
and the logic of Webster. The scene
that preceded the late rebellion were
enacted, the same threats, the same
secession, very nearly the same resig
nations from the army and the navy.
Calhoun took his seat as a Senator
from his State January 4,, 1833, and on
the 21st of January Senator William
Wilkins. of Pennsylvania, introduced
the celebrated force bill, investing the
President with full powers to enforce
thelaw-j. There is no doubt that if
General Jackson had not been with
held by wi-e counsels he would have
executed summary vengeance upon
Mr. Ca'houu,,-
And now we saw the fruits of Web
ster's great speech" of January. 1830.
The example of Jackson terrified his
enemies. Many who had led the at
tack ou "Webster three years before
now advocated Webster's doctrine
dictated by Jackson. Clay was just
coming iuto the Senate after his de
feat for the Presidency the year be
fore. Webster was still there. But
they remained In the background and
allowed the war to rage in the demo
cratic ranks. Clay was maturing his
"American system." and waiting his
opportunity, and Webster was quiet
ly watching the operation of the doc
trines. His relations at this time
were more friendly with President
Jackson. The fierce contention be
tween Calhoun and Jackson natural
ly attracted thb' latter to llio Massa
chusetts patriot. The force bill was a
terror td the old States-rights leaders,
aud yet they feared the iron will of
the 'President more. Most of them
fioalh took ground for the bill. But
they needed help, and they longed for
Webster, the very man whom they
had so assailed three years before.
His apparent neutrality alarmed
them. His business in the Supreme
Court kept him most of the time out
of the Senate ; and yet he was not an
Indifferent, though 6ilent, observer of
the scene. Like the hero of the Gre
cian epic, he might have turned a
deaf ear to the importunities of his
enemies ; aud for a long time he stood
aloof, though beseiged by the friends
of the President, and, if the truth
could be known, exhorted by General
Jackson himself to come to the res
cue. The debate on the force bill pro
gressed. Calhoun was indomitable,
and was eagerly eollectiug all his re
sources. Wilkius opened the debate
followed by Bibb, of Kentucky ;
Poindexter, of Mississippi ; Frellng
huysen, of New Jersey; Brown, of
North Carolina: Holmes, of Maine ;
Tyler, of Virginia ; Clayton, of Dela-
ware; Mangum, of North Carolina;
KiuK, of Alabama; Dallas, of Penn
sylvania; W7ebster taking little part,
aud Calhoun biding his time. After
a speech from Mr. Rives, of Virginia.
Mr. Calhoun, on the 14th of Febru
ary, 1833, moved an adjournment, and
the next day (Feb. 15) began his
great effort. He spoke for the best
part of two days with extraordinary
power. Never had he appeared more
like himself. As described 03 a spec-
tator: "Tall, gaunt, of somewhat
stooped figure, with a brow full, well
formed, and receding ; hair, not re
posing on the head, but starting from
it like the Gorgon's ; a countenance
of unqualified intellect ; an eye that
watched everything and revealed
nothing: to an audience already em
bittered he seemed to realize the full
idea of a conspirator." But no purer
mau ever lived ; none more unselfish,
or lofty, or hostile to indirection or
meanness. Hated by his foe3 for his
politics as for himself. He reasoned
und philosophized, he held up to
Bcorn his foe.s he asserted the inno
cence of South Carolina, and he al
most deified his dream of State inde
pendence. Never was he more effec
tive or more dangerous.
At 2 o'clock of the same day (Feb.
15, 1833.) Dauiel Webster took the
1 floor in reply to John C. Calhoun.
Like his great speech of January 20,
1S30, this effort is historical. It was
not so dramatic or so sympathetic,
but it was a magnificent argument on
the right side, and It did the work. A
lone debate ensued, but the interest
flagged after this splendid mental du
el : and at last, before the final vote
was reached. Mr. Calhoun aud his
friends left the Senate. The bill pass
ed 23 yeaa to 2 nay John Tyler, of
Virginia; Benton, Clay and Calhoun
absent.

last effort, like his first, endeared him
to the democratic party of the free
States. Jackson's proclamation and
Webster's speech in support of it were
pinned to the democratic banners of
Pennsylvania, and when ,the gieat
statesman journeyed to the west, after
great struggle, the people of alL par
ties greeted him as their idol. At
Pittsburg, Pa., he spoke of General
Jaokson, as Follows:
"Gentlemen: The President of the
United States was, as its'eemed to me,
at this eveiltful crisis, true to his du
ty. He comprehended and under
stood the case, and met it as it was
proper to meet It. While I am as
willing as others to admit that the
President has on other occasions Ten
dered important service to the coun
try, and especially on that occasion
which has given him so much milita
ry renown, I yet think the ability
and decision with which he resisted
the disorganizing doctrines of nullifi
cation created a clairr. than which he
has none higher, to tue gratitude of
the country aud the respect of poster
ity. The issuing of the proclamation
on the 10th of December inspired me,
I confess, With new hopes fcr the du
ration 01 me repuunc. wouiu not
be understood to speak of particular
clauses and phrases in the proclama
tion, hut its great aud leading doc
trines I regard as the true and only
true doctrines of the constitution.
They constitute the sole ground on
which dismemberment can be resist
ed. Nothing else, in my opinion,
can hold us together. While those
opinions are entertained the union
will last; when they shall be gener
ally rejected and abandoned that un
ion will be at the mercy of a tempo
rary majority in aiiy one of the
States. "
The dream, was dissolved in a few
months. In September of 1S33 the
deposits were removed from the bank
of the United States by order of Pres
ident Jackson, and Henry Clay took
tho field as the whig leadt-r to resist
this daring act. To Henry Clay must
be conceded the palm of prosecuting
the war against President Jackson's
administration on the bank question.
It was a Splendid campaign. In some
respects he was the equal of his in
domitable antagonist. Like Jackson,
he feared nothing and dared every
thing. He Interposed no screen, no
evasion, but advanced to the front of
the battle. Aided by Calhoun, who
was panting for revenge for the defeat
of nullification, he changed the Jack
son majority of tho Senate into a mi
nority, and founded the whig party
upon the animosities of that exciting
period. Ripfd in attack, fertile of re
sources, witty, eloquent, and unwav
ering, he would have peen the con
querer but for the failure of the bank,
and even in the face of that calamity.

he taid, of one of the most remarka
ble characters which our species has
produced: "When Oliver Cromwell
was contending fdr the mastery in
Great Britain or Ireland, 1 1 do not re
member which j, he besieged a certain
Catholic town. The place made a
brave resistence ; but at leugth. being
likel3 to be taken, the poor Catholics

ining them, cried out, 'Oh, yes, grain

But Cla3 will not be cherished or
read in after ages as Webster is read
and cherished. His speeches have
none of that golden glory, Increasing
in value with years; none of that Mil
tcnic resonance, none of that spiritu
al aroma, which constitute the endur
ing web and woof of Daniel Web
ster's productions. We heard Clay as
we read the brilliant novel of to-day
as we devour Charles Readeor Geo.
Elliott. We turn to Webster as we
turn to Shakspeare. as a well-spring
of inspiration as the great original
from which the proudest are not
ashamed to cop3.
The recollection of the glorious
campaign against nullification re
strained Webster all through this ex
citing period. He participated in lit
tle of the heat aud auger of the Ken
tucky statesman. He believed Presi
dent Jackson to have transcended h-li
powers, and he so voted in the Sea
ate, L'Ut to the last he spoke of him
with respect. Kad the war on the
bank of the United Slates not inter
vened, I have alwa3'3 believed that
Daniel Webster would have been a
leader, if not the leader, of the demo
cratic part3, precisely as Stephen A.
Douglas would have been prominent
in the republican party, If he had not
died Juue 3, 1SG1.
Never before was the current
phrase that "Histo repeats Itself
more strikingly illustrated than- in
the parallel between Calhoun's course
in 1832-33. and that of Jefferson Da
vis in 1SG0-G1. The one was, in fact,
a copy of the other. .And not less
striking is the resemblance between
the attack of the Democratic leaders
upon Webster in 1830, and thei-r con
version or overthrow In 1833, and the
bitter assault of the secession leaders
upon Douglas in 1553, and their defeat
in 1SCU.
Jackson, Webster and Calhoun !
They will never be forgotten. Dlfler-
leut in character, in capacity, and in
ambition, the statue of each occupies
a separate and conspicuous niche iu
the historic temple. We remember
Jackson for his heroic patriotism, and
for these words, from his appeal to
South Carolina, in his proclamation
of Dec 10, iSCO, bo effective in the
past and so weighty in the present:
"Snatch from the archives of your
State the disorganizing edicts of its
convention, bid its members reassem

pression of your wiH, toit-ninin the

vour country shall float over you:
that you will not be stigmatized when
dead, and dishonored ana scorned
while you live, as $h,e uthora of the
who first caused the disorder."
We remember Webster as the cham
pion of constitutional liberty, endur
Ingly illustrated in the following pas
sage from his speech in the Senate,
April, 1S34, on Jaokson's protest:
"It was against the recital of an act
of parliament, rather than any suffer
ings under its enactments, that the
colonists took up arms. They went
to war against a preamble." Thej
fought seven years against a declara
tion. They poured out their treasures
and their blood like water, in a con
test In opposition to an assertion
whioh those less sagacious and not so
well schooled in the pridcipies of civ
il liberty would have regarded as bar
ren phraseology or mere parade of
words. Thej- saw in the claim of the
British parliament a seminal princi
ple of mischief, the germ of unjust
power; they detected it, dragged, it
forth from underneath its plausable
disguise, struck at it; nor did it elude
their stead 3' e3'e or their well directed
blow, till they had extirpated and de
stroyed it to the smallest fibre. On
this question of principle, while ac
tual suffering was 3'et afar off, Up
raised their flag against a power to
which, for purpose of foreign con
quest and subjugation, Rome, in the
height of her glory, was not to be

over the surface of the whole globe
with her possessions and military
posts, whose morning drum-beat, fol
lowing the sun and keeping company
with the hours, circles the earth dai
ly with one continuous and unbroken
strain of the martial airs of England."
And we remember Calhoun for the
purit3'ofhis private and public life,
not as the advocate of a good doctrine
perverted to bad uses, but as the apos
tle of science in statesmanship, so well
s3'rubolized in the senate when he
tried in vain to justify nullification,

WUnta. Clearing Honscls, ad.so
Its Business Is Cunductcil!
From the Kansas City Journal.
The "clearinghouse" has been often,
spoken of during the panic, and our
readers may not fully understand
what it Is and it is much more easily
uuaerstooo than described.
It is an association of banks, or a.
bank composed of all the banks. A
merchant ofKansas Cit3 does his bus
iness with the First National, A GU37
tomer pa3 him a debt bj- a draft on
the Mastin bank. The merchant
don't go to the latter and draw the.
money, but deposits the check with
the First National, and gets credit for
it, and the check is collected from the
Mastin bj- the First National. And
so of all the banks in the cit3 they
receive checks on each other as cash,
and tbus,save the enstomer the trouble
of running from bank to bank. Be;
this wa3' it will be seen that in a
day each bank receives numerous
checks and drafts on the others. It
would be an infinite trouble for each
bank to send its messenger for the
11101163 to evtri other bank on eveay
check, for while the messenger of the
Commercial National may bepreseat-.
ing a thousand duHur check at the
Kansas Ci.3' National, its clerk may
be receiving the cash on a twej.nq.
hundred dollar draft at the other. Altd
the messengers of Smarts' and Wat
kins' bank might pass each other half
a dozen times a da3 with collections.
The clearing house saves all thig,
trouble. At an hour fixed by ihe
rules the clerks of all the tanks meet
at the board of trade rooms, having
with them all the checks and drafts
in their banks agatt st every other
bank in thecit3. Each clerk then de
livers to the manager of the clearing
house a statement of how much each
bank must pa3' his own, and these
footed up show how much he ninst re
ceive from all.
The several amounts are entered ort
a blank, aud show how much all
should receive. And thus the sums
to be paid and received b3 eaeh,
and the aggtegate for all are ascer
tained. Then. each c!e-K delivers to the oth
ers the checks and drafts going to
make up the sums he claims to be due
him, and receives the same held'
against his bank in return. By thse
statements the manager ascertains at
a glance what is due from each bank
and the gros3 amount due from all :
also, the amount due to each, and all.
And these duplicate anionuts.Lhus as
certained must be setthtd and balan
ces made good before any clerk leaves
the room, or the bank bo failing is
"broke."
Bj this mssns all-mistakes are pre-,
vented gstting into the baiks,
the trouble and risk of messengers

and the condition of ever bank in

The convenience of such aiupMem,
