When banks issue notes. receive their inter.
est. and pay out specie Cor their noles, when
demanded, according TO their charters, We call
il legitimate banking. This is the kind of
banking that the people are interested in, AZ sit
adds 10 the amount Of the circulating medium.
There is, however. another branch Of business
done by banks. which, though not 'illeglimale,'
would more properly come under the head OF
brokerage. This is the buying and selling Of
dral's on the eastern cities. or wherever ihey
viii bring premium. This is a convenience
TO business men, but il adds nothing 10 tho
general currency. When We speak Of the
banks ioindiRg up, We speak with reference 10
their loanlng out their notes, or. in other words.
continuing as banks Of issue. To suppose they
will continue 10 issue notes. with The amount Of
TAX they will have TO pay on such issues, is To-
suppose they are incapable Of managing their
own iunds 10 the best advantage. As we have
repeatedly said, we should regret the Banks
Withdrawing their notes from circulation, be.
cause we think money is not now loo plenty for
the fair transaction Of The business Of the S.ate.

making il that much more difficult 10 get good
prices for labor and the produce OF the country.

Retirement Of Major DsneIson.

From the following card, which appeared in
Yesterdays Union, it will be seen that Majo,
DoNELsoN has retired from the editorial chair OF
that paper. No announcement has yet been
made of his successor in that perilous post.
We have had sharp public controversies with
the late editor of the Union, but they cease with
his withdrawal, and We trust that he may find
his private pursuits more pleasant and profita.
BILE than his public have proven. Editorial
trials and troubles can only be fully appreciated
by the fraternity.
The future course of the Union will be re-
garded with interest. We predicted the conse.
quences of its persistence in the line Of policy
it adopted on the Compromise measures. and
towards the Southern Rights party In the
short space of year, it has killed off two Of
its conductors. We trust that the third may
profit by these examples
To THE PUBLIc.-Perceiving that there are
obstacles 10 the harmony of the Democratic
party, growing in some degree out of alleged
differences of opinion respecting the politica
views which hlv been maintained by the Wash
ington Union under the editorship Of the under
signed, he feels it his duty to do what HI
can, consis emily and properly, to remove them
He has, therefore, determined to transfer his en-
tire interest in the establishment to bis partne,
General Armstrong. and to retire from the ed
torial chair to his private pursuits in Tennessee
In taking leave of the subscribers to tn
Washington Union, the undersigned only use
the occasion to assure them that he has endea
vored faithfully to maintain the old and settled
principles Of the Democratic party, which h
trusts are destined to survive the occasional in
terruptions of their just influence, arising frou
the differences among individuals, or from tn
more dangerous conflicts of sectional prejudice
