Hose, reel contests, both double and single, were won by Rescue, of Raleigh. There is much enthusiasm, and the program tomorrow is very attractive. New Berne tlremen attract much at tention and are greatly admired. What say our citizens to giving the boys a reception on their return A Grave Question. Ia a circular recently isauud by Messrs. Harvey risk & Co , under the above caption it ia intimated that a grave peril in Gnancial matters is ap prehended, and unless government aid is extended a panic may occur Xfnaflia. HurvAv Fialr Jtr flrt Bra Wall 1,.., , united States bonds of anv house in this country. They suggest to Mr. Windom, the Secretary of the Treasury, to advance the price of bonds from $129 to $183 even to 8136, intimating that if he will make the advanoe that he will be en abled to purchase at theae figures from 60 to 100 millions of dollars of bonds, or in other wordsif he will pay $1,333 to $i geo for each $1,000 bond 4 per cent that he will prevent a panio, or that he will take over 80 million! of dollars from one class thereby rendering them poorer, and giving it to another class thereby ren dering them richer; that in this single transaction one class repre senting comparatively a few in num ber are to be benefited at the expense of the great masses of the people who are taxed to pay it. They doubtless are patriotic and not in the least influenced by selfishness. I also arrogated to myself to make a suggestion to Mr. Windom, the Secre tary of tbe Treasury. Some years past there were taken from the Treasury and deposited in a number of National Banks over 60 mil lions of dollars ef government money. This amount baa been slightly reduced and ia now within a fraction of fifty millions. For this amount the Banks hypothecated U. S. bonds to the same amount. (This has no connection with the bonds deposited for bank note circu lation). On these bonds the govern meBt has paid interest to the banks and I the banks have not paid a dollar of I interest on the deposits to the govern I m8nt. The banks draw interest from 1 the government on the fiftv millions of I P . . .- njondi. and also draw interest on the I AftT millions of money deposited there I Dv making double interest to the bank?. I "- . . . i -hen the v. tbe banks, do not pay a oeni 1 0f interest to the governmeni, as long I ag the government allows the banks to iu8e tn,8 money without Interest, and at bonds hypothioated so long will the I banks refuse to sell their bonds. Com I mon sense would bo dictate. As the mon government is now over run with sur plus money, and it is important to pur chase these bonds which have been hypothecated and on whioh the govern ment has not only virtually paid for them, but has also paid yearly over two millions of dollars of interest on them, it does seem a most opportune time for the government either to call in its I money which the banks have used for years, or ceaBe w pay or cease to pay interest on this enormous amount of money by paying the bonds. Therefore, the following suggestion was made to Mr: Windom, Secretary of the Treasury: Nkwbern, N. C., July 20, 1881) Hon. William Windom, Secretary of tbe Treasury : Dear Sir : Referring to a recent circular of Messrs. Harvey, Fisk & Sons, in which it is stated that a grave peril in finances i" imminent, and unless aid is extended . th Government a panio may ensue, and BUggegtB tnat if the Government .ni advance the price which they are ..i-. a nor Mnk lunula nn tn 18 ' . . . - to 18 that they think 60 to inn jih km.ia,ia ha hnmrht if tu ,09 waBiyanoed as suggested i pj aw it MMan. BMafc ffi Hon havn nn ni, ilnalrA tn nrnvunt a nanlo than hv -.-). ftiqgn tn man tnr aanh ftlAftn lhSil fo, one .iylei tie nania come, and I believe that an im mense majority of the people will acquiesce in it. Pardon me for making you a sugges tion : Yon have near 00 millions of dollars on deposit In National banks; for years the Government has not reoeived a cent of Interest on It, but have paid interest on bonds hypothecated by the banks to the Government. The banks not only haye received the full face value of tbe bonds in money, but also received aad oontinue to receive interest oa theMU amount of the bonds. Aa long as Tne Government continues this of oowm the banks will not sell the bonds. Pardon me for suggesting that if you will give notice to the banks who have this money on deposit that on a certain day, say lstday of September, you will -call in these deposits, and that in the meantime you will buy at your prices all the bonds which are offered I doubt not every dollar of the bonds hypothecated will be sold to you. When I see the great tendency of this country towards trusts, monopolies, combina tions, etc., all of which are in the inter est of the few and against the interest of the masses of the people, I think the time has come for the people to speak out. ery respectfully, Your obedient servant.
