The wing press rather amused al the idea that
the present Secretary OF the Treasury has determined
carry out the law 10 the letter. He transfers the specie
literally, when transfer is TO be made instead of trans
ierrng by draft has been the practice heretofore
They aege that the law requires the specie itself TO be
transferred and that Mr. Guthrie is carrying out the law
but the practice is inconvenen and therefore, it has
not been observed by previous Secretaries II
right funny TO some Of these wings TO think that
should be green enough TO observe an inconvenen
law.
They affect TO be pleased however and prognos,icate
that The law will changed soon It's practical
Inconvenience is made manifest by experiment
Now, not surprised al this at all We expected
that the present administration would undertake go
cordng TO law. The present Secretaries are not smart
enough TO make the law suit them the wings did on
the contrary, they will try 10 make themselves conform
to the law
II was not expected that the wings would observe laws
much They had but little TO do with making laws, and
why should they observe what they didn't make, and
don't like, is the case with the present treasury law
This actual transfer OF specie is alleged 10 be very in
convenient-so much that the law will be altered. Per-
haps il may but we doubt il; and wing opinions
financial matters not worth much II II turns out 10
be lust AZ convenient transfer the specie ITSELF and
cheap, then the law will not be altered, and this may be
The case. This shalt when it is honestly tried
Transferring by drafts is convenient and profitable
rotary OF the Treasury, and therefore is quite popular
way in some quarters IL would doubt be popular TO
give banker some seventeen hundred thousand dollars
TO buy up United States stocka very happy contrvance
10 give friend lft in the OF a large OF
money; bat the legality OF il is another question.
The truth is, We apprehend we should have had no
treasury law all after while, had the wings remained
npower except for The convenience OF the Secretary and
his friends.
This law-and-order party is a great party They 20

however, be carried out, and glad 10 tina,
wing editors amused and even pleased TO see the
thing done They have given Guthrie the soubrque, Of
the Prairie Plow" because he goes straight ahead after
the law dsresarding the nice arrangements and profit
able customs and happy expectations OF all the Gal
phins.
The editor OF the Tribune thinks he will come TO terms
after while, and do as others have done. Ia this, we
reckon he is quite mistaken. The present Secretary is
one OF the last to come TO terms in such clfcum.
Stances He will go ahead depend on that lrs fash
