'E'za3 Nesy National ArssaSvy.

1t appears that the location by government
OF new national armory upon Rock Island,
of which We had a report some time since, is
not yet a fixed fact" and that in the mean
time Chicago, Milwaukee and other places,
are making vigorous efforts to obtain deci
sion each in its own favor 1t would be sin
gular, indeed, if after having reserved nearly
the entire Island for so many refusing
any and every solicitation to dispose of it at
either public OF private sale, but on the con-
trary keeping it under the charge of an agent
at salary of near seven hundred dollars
year, with the avowed intention of putting it
to some public use eventualy-the whole
project should be now entirely abandoned.
We are of the opinion that the Island advo-
Gates have still the ''inside track" 1t will
come legitimately within the sphere of the
present extra session of Congress to make
final disposition of this question-now that
the Harper's Ferry armory is so completely
rmnod-and we doubt not it will be done.

u 1t is believed that should the Savannah
pirates be convicted and condemned the Ex-
ecutive clemency will commute the sentence
into lifelong Imprisonment. The reasons for
this are that the rebels taken in arms and
equally guilty have been released on taking
the oath of allegiance, and to hang these men
would look like unjust severity; again, the
death of tbese scoundrels would lead to the
immediate sacrifice of our men held in rebel
camps, and then new feature of horrible bar
barity would be introduced into our war.

OF lne S!andarQ.
Mr. EDITOR A word or two of inquiry 1t is
worse than useless to have on your Statute Book a
law unless it be the purpose of those whose duty it
is) to enforce IT, The violation of any law made for
the general good, by any one any set of men,
however humble exalted, is an injury and wrong
done to the whole community. l find in Chapter
81 of the Revised Code page 237-the following:
Sec. ). No person or corporation unless the same
be expressly allowed by law, shall issue any bill,
due 6 order, ticket certificate of deposite or pro-
miSsory note or obligation, any other Kind of Sc
curity SohHterer may be its form or name with the
intent that shall circulate pass as the rep
reSentative Of or substitute for money, on pain
of forleting and paying for each offence the of
FIFTY DOLLARS, and if the party offending be. cor
poration, of also being deemed to have violated its
charter. And every person offending against this
section, or aiding or assisting therein Shall likewise
be deemed guilty Of misdemeanOr."
The 9th section makes it penal and indctabe for
any person to pass recece any such due bills
ders &C.
Now, in the face of this law, the State is being
" shngled over" with ShinpLdsters, of both domes-
tic and foreign production issued by some Mr.. Slick
Grocery Mr.. SnOOks (Broker,) MesSrs. Cannon Dc
.StaPp, (Bankers,) or by the solemn Ordinance of
some village, peddng a corporation! They are
of various denominations from five cents to two dol
lars and most of them printed on paper that drops
to pieces almost without use! These things are
driving what little specie there out of crcua-
tion and substituting for it miserable shinplaster
currency, with hat full Of which, in short Time
you will not be able to buy breakfast The Con-
venton or Legislature refused to give the power to
our Banks, and now behold the consequence Viii
