Norrs.-Mr. Gallatin held that this power was
clearly vested In Congress. In his Considers.
lions on the Currency and Banking System Of
the United States" page IS, edition Oflsi3, hO
says:
Congress has the power to lay stump duties
on notes, on bank notes, aad on any description
of bank notes. That power has alreedy been
exercised; and the duties may be laid 10 sseh an
amount, and in such manner as may be ueeess
sary to effect the object intended. This object il
not merely TO provide generally for the general
welfare, but to carry into effect, in conformity
with the last paragraph Of the eighth section Of
the first article, those several and express proyi-
sions Of the CONSTITUTION which vest In Congress
exclusively the control over the monetary sys-
TEN of the United States, and more particularly
those which imply the necessity of uniform
currency. The exercise Of the power for that
object is free ofsny constitutional objection, pro-
vided the duties thus laid shall be uniform, and
applied to the Bank Of the United States a. usiii
as to the State banks. The act Of laying and
collecting the duties, which is expressly granted,
is alone sufficient TO effect the object"

If the following statement ofthe Washington
correspondent of the Tribune be true, there can
be little doubt that Presidential patronage and
the enormous corruption fund will force the
Calhoun Constitution through Congress:
Il Is estimated that the pecuniary interests Of
the little pro-slavery faction in the Territory
headed BY Calhoun and the two judges, Lee
eompte and Cato, dependent upon the adoption
of their project Of Constitution, exceed sixty
millions Of dollars. Those interests are vest-
ed in the sites Of the capital and country toWns,
Bank Charters, rail-road and turnpike acts, and
the contingent War Debt. or course the small
er the party the larger the dividend; and this 70
the reason why no Constitution was formed
which could be submitted to the people with
hope Of success. Congress can be managed, iE
was supposed, more easily than the psople.-
Gov. Walker could have made colossal for
tune by entering into the plans Of the Lecomp1
ton confederatss, and lending TO them the weight
Of his Official influence. The Northern Demo-

popular rights in the Territories, are not 10 be

Coon STORIES OF THE PREsIDENT.-The Wash
ington letter writer of the New York Post tells
the following good 'uns of the President:
There is a story told here too good to be lost,
about the Presidents troubles.
He invited the Cabinet together, and submit
ted to them the question between Walker and
the Border Ruffians.
No one said q word.
"why, damn it," exclaimed our somewhat
irritated Chief Magistrate, al believe you are
looking for the succession just ike Walker"
Here is another:
The President, after pretty hard days work,
sat him down, and rubbing his still undated
calf up and down gently, observed to friend
or two with him

man Wood, Of New York, and the Kansasques-

DEATH OF GEORGE 2. eLIpDoH.

George R. Gliddon, the well known Egyp-
tian archeologist, died at Panama on the 18Th Of
November. He was born in England about the
year 1897, and at an early age went to Egypt,
where his father was the American counsul-an
Office which Mr.. GiiddOn himself Afterwards
held. When Mehemet Ali was projecting those
national enterprises which have done much to
improve Egypt, Mr.. Gliddon succeeded in i'm;
pressing the Pacha with the idea that American
machinery would best subserve bis purposes,
and thereby opened a market for the produe-
tons Of American ingenuity and skill. He be-
came an enthusiastic member Of the Egyptian
Society of Alexandra, and valued correspon-
dent of DR.. Morton, the eminent craniologist,
whom he furnished with several hundred skulls
o2all parts of the valley of the Nile, at con-
siderable expense and personal risk. The results
of DR.. Morton's examinations were published in
4 book dedicated to Mr.. Gliddon, and threw
much light on the difficult questions which had
been agitated with regard to the ancient Egyp-
tians.
At one period of Mr.. Gibbons residence in
Egypt, he became interested in the success Of
the projected ship canal across the Isthmus Of
Suez, and made journey to England to advO-
cate that measure. Soon after, Mr.. Gliddon
transferred his residence to the United States.
His long sojourn in Egypt and extensive re-
searches into its antiquities, procured for him
many invitations to lecture on subjects connect
ed with that country. A course Of lectures de-
livered BY him before the Lowell Institute Of
Boston, repeated in New York and Philadel-
phia, and afterwards published, did much to
disseminate knowledge Of Egyptian research
es and awaken fresh interests in them. In 1854,
in connection with DR.. ]. C. Mott, of Mobile,
Mr.. GliddOn published "Types of Mankind
It contained papers by several distinguished
men Of science, and being addressed to the pop
ular taste, had an extensive sale. A supplement
to this work issued from the press in the spring
ofthe present year under the title of "Indige.
nous Races ofthe Earth
In April last, Mr.. Gliddon sailed for Hon
duras, having become connected with the in
teroceanic railway scheme. He was on his re-
turn to the United States when he died. His
disease was pulmonary congestion, his age hfty
years.-N. Y. Post.
