SAVINGS BANKS AND SKvRNs
TH9RTIEa.

A correspondent writes Us complaining note
to know why il is that the City Savings Banks
will not receive Government securities OF
deposit. He represents himself a. mechanic
who, having saved $780, put it in 7.3Os to
obtain Government interest. Wishing to have
for his bonds more security than trunk or stock
ing could afford, he took them to his Savings
Bank, and found, first, that the Bank would
not receive bonds Oh deposit, nor even take
them at par value rs deposit Of money. With
this statement of facts. lie asks us to decide
whether or not these Savings Banks are " dis
loyal" Upon which we say:
|. Savings Banks are mercenary-not in the
offensive sense but just as all people are
mercenary who deal in money. Most Of then
make large profit by paying four per cent
interest. When the Government offers 81 81
interest and better security. they become rival
to the Banks.
II. Savings Banks put their deposits in Coy
ernment securities. Thus bank with a MIL
lion dollars in deposits will buy a million dol
lars of 1905. The depositors will receive :
q year Oh every hundred, thus leaving a profit
Of 50 30 to the Banh--a nice, safe, easy profit.
Of course this is not dsloyalty," but simply
accepting commercial advantage.
III. The remedy for this is simple. If Say
iugs Banks will discredit Government securi-
ties. the Government or some of it, agents must
find q way 10 bring Banks to their senses. We
admit that there is a necessity for a security %
possession to holders of Government securities
in small sums. What better way than in q
National Savings Bank, where a poor man can
deposit his fifty or hundred dollar bond, have
!, registered. borrow money on it, receive III
terest every six months a. the coupon becomes
due--a bank whcro tho bond would find a home
and resting-place, and would always be kept
at par.
We make this suggestion to our Ncw-York
people a. an answer 70 our correspondent. Mr.
Jay Cooke is the proper person to think over
this idea and carry it out, and we trust he will
do it,

need of her assistance. In tho adjustment OF
these great controversies there is no honest, re-
spectacle influence which We can afford to dis
regard. Believing Slavery to be great imnior-
atty We would have every protested teacher
of morality arrayed against it. Believing the
civilization of this age to be eminenly Christian
in its character, we ask that the servants OF
Christianity should be upon the side of civilza-
ton. Believing that the emancipated Blacks
may DO treated with gross injustice, We would
find for them a protector and advocate in
every religious publication-and those publica-
tons, whatever their professions, which neglect
such plain and simple duty, We denounce in
advance as simply irreligious and dangerous to
the peace Of society.

Holders of real estate around the City Hall
Park may congratulate themselves upon the
value of their property if recent sale may be
taken as criterion Of its worth. Mr.. Bennett
of The Herald has bought the lot on which the
Museum stood for the handsome sum OF $685.
OOO The lot measures So feet by 100, and the
fee simple was in Mrs III. W. Sargent OF New
burgh, we believe, to whom the purchaser pays
$3.50, 900 in twelve years time. Mr. Barnum,
however, had lease with nearly twelve years
to run, and for this he received S20O,O 600, or
nearly one half the whole value of tho prop
erty. 1t enabled him TO reflect with
some equanimity upon the loss of his Museum
Ms he quietly walked down to Wall-st. and IN
vested the whole sum in 7.30 bonds.
The site is an excellent one for newspaper
Office, and if such building is put up as the
proprietor OF large daily journal knows from
experience it should have, an additional sum OF
$500, 900 for building will be added to the cost
of the land The whole outlay, therefore, will
be $3.50, OOO We have no doubt Mr.. Bennett
will erect a building suitable for bis purpose
and an ornament to that section of the city.

Two davs later reports on the issue OF the
| English elections acquaint US with the COM
plcxion Of about two-thirds of the new House OF
Commons. The result thus far does not ma
telally differ from the previous adviccS received
by the Peruvian. The party Of tho Government,
which lays q claim to the name Of Liberal,
has thus far gained from eight to ten members
But this loss does not affect the opposite party
very deeply, for they assert that many o.
these self-styled Liberals do not dineI
much from themselves in principle, and
that 81 in about half dozen instances the mem
bers returned, though classed among the
Liberals, are in reality Conservatives" That
this view is not entirely without foundation
may be easily Seen from the fact that many OF
! the leaders of the Government party are care
! fully retaining from making any pledges in be-
! half of reform, that many leading Tories
do not hesitate TO declare in IA
yor of partial extension OF the
suffrage law, and that the list OF Liberal
members is so "liberally" comprehensive as
even to exclude Mr.. Rocbuck who, having
failed to achieve notoriety in any other way.
now seeks it by the violence of his abuse OF de-
mocraoy in general, and the institutions OF the
United States in particular
The party of the Government was feeling san
guine that the returns from tho counties IN
which the elections had not yet been completed
would considerably add to their gains; for the
counties have been heretofore the stronghold OF
the Tories, and there were many Tory seats but
only a few Of the opposite party to be contested.
Whether those expectations will be realized OF
not few days will disclose. But more dam
ring TO the prospects OF the Tories as party
than the loss of ten or twenty seats is the fact
that nearly all their successes lie with small
constituencies. while the large cities arc now
ranging themselves on the side OF the party o.
progress.
In London the Liberal candidates polled some
1000 votes against 4, 200 given to the Conserya'
tyes. Birmingham returns John Bright To
Parliament without opposition. In Manchester
the contest lay between the friends of the Min
istry and the Radicals, no Conservative having
come forward, and so it was in most OF the
large cities II il impossible 10 obtain the COM
plete statistics Of the aggregate vote by which
the House of Common, is elected, as in many
places no poll is demanded, but that the aggre-
gate Tory vote would be dispropor'ionaiely
small in comparison with the Liberal vote adj
mits OF no doubt.
The Radical Party has gained great triumph
| by the election of sruar, MIL and Thomas
Hughes. Jacob Bright was, unfortunately.
defeated in Manchester by less advanced
Liberal yet be poIled 5,562 votes against G,69S
which were given 10 his opponent. Edwin

NAVAL VESSELS.

We presume we may say without mourning
the charge of attacking the Navy Department
that errors have been made, during the last foui
year in some Of our naval vessels Consider
ing the number Of ships that have been
built and the necessary haste Of construc.
ton, this, perhaps, was inevitable. The
complaints that have been made were
not so much, therefore, FOR the errors, but The
disposition there has been shown to persist in
them when pointed out and tho indispositon
TO profit either by experience or the counsels Of
practical men. A case in point is pre- 'entod
in the steamer Algonquin and her engine
in relation 70 which we print in another column
letter from Edward n. Dickerson. Between
Mr.. Dickerson and Mr.. sherwood Of the
Engineering Bureau there is long-standing
difference upon the subject Of cut-ohs. Mr..
Dickerson holds to one theory, in accordance
with which his engines are made, and
in which, he holds, they have grea,
superiority. Mr.. sherwood holds another
theory, and if Mr.. Dckerson is right,
Mr. sherwood is very seriously in the
wrong. The latter gentleman certainly labor-
under one great disadvantage; some of the en-.
gines Of our naval vessels have been sad mis-.
takes.
Now which is wrong and which right
is n question Of practical Importance to
the naval service, and if Mr.. Diokerson'.
assertions be correct, that the superior
ity of his engines has been proved
in merchant steamers, it would seem proper
for the sake of the Navy, that they
should have fair trial in naval vessels
Mr.. Paul Forbes, well-known and eminent
ship.owner of this city, takes this view Of the
question, and believing in the Dickerson engine,
made contract with the Government to give il
for the good of the Navy. But accord
ing to Mr.. Dickerson's statement the
question is to be decided, not upon the merits
of the case, but by mere arbitrary authority.
Before the engine could possibly be tested, it
was condemned to go upon the scrap-heap'
by the chief of the Engineering Bureau. II
Mr.. Dckerson is charlatan and his engine a
failure, the better way would be to prove both
by fair trial. The machinery will find its
way to the scrap-heap fast enough if the trial is
a failure, and if it is not, nobody should wei.
come its success more heartily than q Govern.
ment official whose business is with facts, not
theories, and who should seek for tho fastest
ships, let who will make the cut-offs.
Mr.. Dickerson's letter is q readable docu'
ment and contains, under the circumstances, q
very sensible proposition. Lot us SEQ these
rival ships, try their speed and endurance in
our waters and whichever tows the other into
port will settle knotty and sorely-yeXed
question.

And, as he is no Presidential stop-gap, but
regularly elected by the loyal people Of Arkan-
sas, his Judgment is entitled TO great weight.
We have instanced only the States wherein
there was large party Of open, determined
Unonists prior to the collapse of the Rebellion.
OF course, the others evince loyalty still more
dubious and feverish. Nobody doubts, we pre-.
sumo, that if Gen. Lee and Gen. Thomas were

be chosen by at least three votes to one. Take

slowly, and the exclusion of the Blacks from
all voice in public matters renders the South far
more disloyal in aspect than she is in reality.
