The Retiring State Officers.

Next Wednesday will witness par
tlal change in the administration of our
State departments. Gov. Randall, af-
ter serving for an unusually arduous
term of four years duration, retires
from the executive chair. However di-
verse may be the opinions of the peo-
pie as to his merits, we think that if
will be admitted, sometime if not now,
by every one that he has been an able
and efficient officer.
1t. Gov. Noble quits the presidency
of the Senate with few enemies and
many friends, leaving behind him the
deserved reputation Of being a man of
large heart and mind, and one whom
the people may we'll honor with some
new evidence of their appreciation.
Mr.. Harvey exchanges the office OF
Secretary of State for that of Govern
or. That he has proved the best Sec
rotary the State has ever had, is mi
versallv conceded. We have full con
tidencc that he will quit tie Executive
chair with honor to himself and with
advantage to the State.
Bank Comptroller Van Steenwyk re.
turns to private life without any suspi
cion of having taken advantage Of his
position to advance his own interests
except in a strictly Legitimate manner
When we consider the unprecedented
difficulties which have attended the al
mihistration of that department during
his term, the encomium, "Wcll done
thou good and faithful servant" i,
justly his.
Hans G. 1eg, the State Prison Com
missioner, declined 4 sure re-elevtiol
for the purpose of leading his country
men Of this State in the war for tho
Union. He is an intelligent man, anc
mas made valuable officer. He vii

go far to prevent future desertionS.

rage. That this accumulation OF idle coin ID an
injury and not an advantage it needs no study TO
perceive. The banks are doing very little with
their increased deposits and specie fund, as the
steady decline in the loans shows, while the
country is suffering everywhere from the want OF
coin. Our banks are, in word, strong in proper
ton to the general weakness of the country; they
gain coin trade loses it; their reserve swells as
the profits oflegitmate commerce decline. Never

Of hard times as the one which we publish above
The money market continues unchanged, and
no failures are reported. On call money is very
abundant indeed, at a per cent. Good paper
ia wanted by the banks at the legal rate, but very
few names Of those heretofore current are now

Foreign exchange is dull with q downward
tendency. Mercantile bills have risen to point
which leaves little or no profit on the importation
of gold, and bankers are less anxious to buy in
consequence. They are asking 1867 l03 for
their own bills, with very little demand.
