NEW FINANCIAL SCHEME,

A correspondent; in Washington whose occa-
sional letters have given hints of coming events,
or hints which seemed to prevent certain contem-
plated acts, writes to the Philadelph a U. S. Ca
zette as follows
circulation on foot, to issue ten millions of Treas
ury notes, all of $50, all redeemable at different
banks in the large cities, which are TO be made
dePosite banks. The plan is fixed and settled, and
1t is intended as movement against United
States Bank by giving circulation to the country
In the form OF their notes. Great importance is
attached to it by the Cabinet as political move,
and it will probably be the nucleus on which to
build great political machine embracing dis.
counts and exchanges, &c.,

DEBT OF ILLINOIS.

The State of Illinois is in fair way of redu-
cling her debt by an amount which will leave the
balance easily manageable. According to a state
ment which we find in the New York Post i'm
December 1912, the obligations of Illinois were out
to the amount of fourteen and half millions OF
dollars $3,lO0,000 of this amount was for bank
stock, and this scrip was forthwith cancelled by
consent of the State Bank, and its connection
with the State dissolved. Various other acts
were passed, under the operation of which there
were surrendered, returned, and destroyed, about
S2,50O,OOO more Of bonds, and lastly, the canal
law was passed, which lift takes effect, las there
appears little doubt that it must do,) by the coop
Grafton OF the stockholders, will have diminished
the debt of the Stale by the sum of SIC. 42O. OOO
leaving but little over 81 600 900 to be provided
for by taxation. This is sort of compromise, at

BANK OF THE UNITED STATES

We mentioned some weeks ago the fact that
the Wings of Tennessee had made a bank of the
United States one Of the prominent issues in their
elections, and it seems now that they are carry
ing the people with them to that degree that the
Locos have been compelled to feign friendship to
the measure. The Knoxville Post (Whig) con.
tains the following caution to the true friends of
Bank on the subject:
A WORD TO THE UNITED STATES BANK MEN.
The great popularity Of a United States Bunk
all orer the State Of Tennessee has induced many
OF the Democratic party who are candidates for
seats in the next Legislature to auoU themselves an
lacor IF tie establishment Of such an institution.-
In many counties where there is nominal DEM
ocratlc majority, the leaders Of that party, k,o,cing
That they can only make success certain 6y faling
into tie current Of popular opinion upon Ills i'm
Portant subject now endeavor to deceive the peo-
pie by declaring that they entertain the same
views and that they will every effort in their
power, if they should be honored with the conf
dence of the people, To promote The success of This
pitai Bieasure.'

SEIZURE OF THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.

The belief is held by some that the seizure OF
the Sandwich Islands by Lord PAULET was total.
~ unauthorized By the British Government, and
that SO soon as information of the fact reaches
England, Immediate steps will be taken TO re-
store things to their original position. We shall
De OF THIS opinion too when events prove its cor
RICHNESS, but In the meantime the force of doubts
tends strongly to induce the impression that tho
occupation OF these islands is blu. one step fur
ther IN the path which England has been steadily
pursuing fer years.
letter from an American naval officer to the
editor OF the New Orleans Bulletin, after detail
Ing the particulars of the seizure SAYS that sthe
interest OF the United States will suffer chiefly
from the occupation by the English of the Islands.
Two hundred vessels under the American FLAG ar
rive here annually.-There is now upon the ISL
ands large amount of American property. In
case the canal uniting the two oceans is compile
ted, the future importance of the islands will be
immense. The Americans have civilized and
Planted The commercial interests Of the group. 1t
remains to be seen whether the United States
Government will acquiesce in usurpaiion so de-
struclve to the fruits of American industry
In various ways the possession of these Islands
would be highly advantageous to British COM
merce. 1.-THE claims Of England on Mexico are
to be llquldated by the cession Of California-if
the pretensions of England 10 the Oregon Terrific.
~ are to be enforced in despite Of our own rights
lin case OF either event or Of both, the Sand.
witch Islands would afford conveniences and ia.
cllitles OF such nature would render the pos
session of them highly important TO Great Britain
But speculation on the subject at presnt car
throw no light upon the manner in which the late
occurrence will be viewed by the British Govern
ment. Time will shortly disclose something def
mite and conclusive.
IT has been conjec,ured that the sudden return
OF the President TO Washing n,--where, it will
be seen, he arrived OH Monday, has been occasion
ed by the Sandwich Islands affair.

FROM THE EAST.

The overland mail was received at London on
the 7th Of May. bringing advices from Canton to
the 22d of February, Calcutta to the 23rd Of
March and Bombay to the LIST of April. The in
telligence is Of considerable interest.
Lord Peterborough, unable to resist the insatia-
Bile Anglo-Indian propensity to make acquisitions
of territory, has, by dash Of his pen, annexed the
whole country Of Scindesto the Auglo-lndian EN-
pire, and appointed General Napier Its Governor.
To this robbery Of coil, robbery OF gold andrew
els was added; more than million sterling hav-
ing been "toond" in the city OF Hyderabad, and
appropriated.
The annexation OF Scinde meets with little ia
vor in the English papers, although such Of them
as habitually defend Lord Peterborough in every
