Rervpiatios.—The “Colonist’’ of this morning states that the Bank of Montreal is refusing all torn or defaced Dominion notes, and as this statemcnt is, we believe, correct the result may be annoying to many persons. The Dominion dollar note; either from the poorness of the paper of which

they are made or from the frequency with

which they are handlcd, are usually in a

very deplorable state, being soiled or torn.

Probably one half the circulation of Do-

1ion notes is thus defaced, and if this

e of the Bank of Montreal, followed by

other Banks, is enforced, a rather serious

ilt must arise.

4s the ‘‘Colonist’’ suggests, this new

scheme of Repudiation must have been ad-

vised by the government before being ads | ed by the bank. This is not even govern. | “commercial principles ;"’ for we er heard a man refusing to pay his note the ground that it was dirty or defaced | The Government |
