GOVERNMENT DEALING IN EXCHANGE
The st. Louis papers are complaining in loud
terms against the Secretary of Treasury, for
becoming a dealer in exchange, and compe-
ting with the bankers in that city by selling
Eastern bills 1t appears that the Treasury
requires the transfer of S750,OOO from New
York to st. Louis, and instead Of employing
the Express Companies to take the specie
from one city to the other as the sub-treasu.
ry law would seem 80 require, drawing the
specie from the vaults of TIE New York
banks, and locking it up in the St. Louis sub
treasury, the agents of the government, go
into the market at st. Louis and sell bills on
New York, and draw the specie from the ST..
Louis banks, and placing it beyond use in the
81. Louis subtreasury, thereby depriving the
St. Louis banks of the ability to keep up their
line of discounts to the mercantile COMMIT

OF Mr.. Sturgis, teller of the Bank of Amer
ica. n York has been dismissed from his place
for favortism in certifying checks. He has
been for some months past certifying the
checks of party in the street who had ne
funds in bank, which certified checks had
been used as collateral for loans at heavy
rate of usance. The amount is some thirty
thousand dollars, which was made good to-
day by the friends of the party, for whose
benefit the transaction was made. The affair
came to the knowledge of the Bank on Mon
day. He has been in the Bank for many
years, and has been highly thought of by the
other officers. Who next?

0EF The reasons for Gen. Scott's removing
his head quarters from Washington to New
York are said to be the arrogant attempt of
Davis to appropriate duties and functions ap-
propriately belonging to the Commander in
Chief, which induced Gen. Scott's removal to
New York shortly after the Administration
came into power, and since then his inter-
course with the Department has been strictly
formal, while consulting the best interests OF
the service.

JOHN NJ. OLA1IONS > OOMESI1C SORROWS
In his eulogy on his late colleageu, Mr.
Bayard, of Delaware, said:
In September, 1922, he married the daugh-
ter Of DR.. James Fisher, Of Delaware, an ac-
complished lady, and the object of his first
affections. After little more than two years
of domestic happiness she died in February,
1925, leaving him two sons, and to him her
loss was lifelong sorrow. He cherished
her in memory with an almost romantic de-
vot;on, and though unusually demonstrative
as to his ordinary emotions and feelings, with
his deeper affections it was otherwise. His
was grief which spoke not, and even the
observant eye of friendship could only see
from momentary glimpses, how immedicabe
was the wound which had been inflicted. OF
the two children which she left him, the
youngest, who was of great promise both in
tellectually and morally, died in January,
1919, in his twenty fourth year, and the 9TH
er two years afterwards. On the death of
his youngest and lavorite child. there was a
desoation of the heart which. though it
vainly courted relief in the excitement of
public life, could scarcely be realized by those
who have not suffered under the pressure of
similar sorrow.

The semi annual meeting of the Council
of this State will be held in this city on
Tuesday, the 18th instant, and from advices
received from different portions of the State,
we believe it will be the largest attended Of
any Council since the organization of the
American party in California. There will
be many questions Of interest that will en-
gross the attention of the Council, and one
of the most important of which will be the
adoption of a Platform, and the taking of
the initiative for the summer and fall cam
paign. If wise and prudent counsels pre-
vail-and we have no fear that other than
such will-the American party will 60 be-
fore the people with its glorious principles
inscribed upon banner, that will wave in
triumph over our cherished State at the ap-
preaching election. While the seeds of dis
union and anarchy are being sown broad
cast over the land by the Republicans, and
the constant agitation of slavery made the
main plank in the Democratic Platform, the
liberal minded, Union loving masses can find

derstald, went off in very fine style, and
was quite numerously attended. Some con-
siderable dissatisfaction was expressed, we
learn, that party should have been gotten
up in this place to come off on the same
evening, which was viewed in the light of
an opposition. Erroneous as may have been
the policy which prompted the movement
here, we can assure our friends below that
it was not so intended, and had no effect
whatever on their party, as the attempt
proved an entire failure.
