The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1866-10-18

This error on the part Of the North has
now been corrected. The Fortieth Congress
will be composed OF men OF experience
who have had years of duty at Washington,
and understand thoroughly the way in which
red tape seeks how not to do It." In the
elections of October, sixty members were
chosen, Of whom over forty-five have been In
Congress before, and are well versed in all the
duties of the position. In our own State but
few changes were made, only five new MEM
bers being selected; while in our city we send
back Messrs. Randall O'Neill, and Myers for
their sixth year, and Judge Kelley for his
eighth. This is what should have been done
for years. 1t is what gives power to State.
If man comes up to the requisites set down
by Jefierson-if che be capable, if he be
honest, and true to the Constitution"-lethi him
be kept in his seat as long as he will hold it,
for every year he becomes better fitted to
fulfil The wants of those he represents.
1t is because Of the extensive denomination
of present members that we feel confident that
the Fortieth Congress will be renowned for
its ability. In addition to this, we see the
people of all the districts nominating their
best men, men of national reputation, who
would not, were not the country in danger, ac-
cept of seat in the House of Representatives.
Massachusetts will send Banks, Butler, Bout.
well, and herculean delegation; while in
New York city we notice that Greeley repre-
sents the editorial fraternity, and all those
placed in nomination by the radicals are men
of high standing. With the prospect OF
having such a Congress, we will not despair
of the republic
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1866-10-18

WHY NoT?-We have heard for some
months of the intention of the Government
to place our United States securities on the
Paris Bourse, and thus open new field for
the sale of our bonds. As yet we have no
indication that the design has been accom-
plished. Great Britain, with stupidity
truly English, declines to deal in any form of
securities except the Five-twenties. We
do not apprehend any such difficulty in
France. AS it at present stands, the Change
of London seems to have a monopoly of
United States issues. Let us have this re-
formed. What is needed emphatically is the
reduction OF all our varied loans to COM
mon basis, to funded debt. When that is
arranged there will be no confusion, and the
reign of British monopolists will be over.
