Miscellaneous.

The arrivals of boats on Saturday were
unusually scarce the Robt. Burns being
the only hull at the landing outside the
81 1 regular local packets, up to late hour
els Saturday evening. The Burns had 480 bales
$50 of cotton for Cincinnati....... The Armada
3 , had rather light trips both ways.......T The
Myrtle had good trip out of Green River,
ses but returned light.......... The Tarascon and
hHe Mary Ament went out with light trips......
% The Tarascon, backing down opposite the
zsslDry Dock, gave our people specimen of
.aEls fine running. She passed the city in gall
reliant style, with all her coIors flying, and
ei ran to a point half mile above the wreck
of the Missouri where she landed, in II
$50 minutes. She is one of the trimmest
b and rleatest crafts these waters. 49,.
re AS the Curlew returns from Henderson
late every Saturday evening, it would be a
good opportunity for pleasant excursions
for recreation to those who have been pent
up in business houses and at home all
week. They can leave here az four o'clock,
visit Henderson, and return here by eight
- O'Clock, enjoying pleasant ride and lit

THE NATIONAL CURRENCY

Among the dispatches from Washington on the
oath inst to the associated Press we find the follow.
ing:
The Secretary of the Treasury has written letter
TO the Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee
on the appointment of the national currency. He
says that Senate BILL 256, is seemingly general in its
provisions but in effect it sends out Massachusetts,,
Connecticut and Rhode Island, and reduces their
circulation to certain arbitrary standard. prac-
ticay asserts that the circulation of the National
Banks in Massachusetts, shall be diminished sixty
per cent that the circulation of the National Banks
in Connecticut shall be diminished forty-two per
cent? and that the circulation of the National Banks
in Rhode Island shall be diminished seventyfour per
cent This principle on which the reduction is based
is not correct one One hundred and seventy
five thousand of the rural population OF Ohio or Hi
nos do not need tenth part of the circulation re-
quired by the manufacturing and commercial CON-
munities of Rhode Island. This bill is an amend
ment to section 81 of the present National Currency
act, and proposes to withdraw crcuato from banks
by reducing the ratio which it shall bear to their
capital. 1t will affect banks in all the States more
or less. By certain fixed rule this reduction is to
be effected gradually. As the circulation becomes
worn mutilated it is to be returned for redemp-
ton The amount by which the circulation Is to be
thus diminished approximates S2oOOOOOO, and 1t Is
proposed in anticipation of this reduction to author
lie the issue of circulation to banks in States that
have secured the least prOportonate amount oil cir
culation, as il may be needed.
The Secretary thinks it is important that solvent
State banks should have opportunity to become
National banks-otherwise, by the operation OF law
of the United States they viii be compelled to wind
up after the lst day Of July next and that it is
matter of great importance that provision should be
made to meet the wants of those States which have
been in rebellion.
BANKING FACILITIES SOUTH.
Banking facilities are necessary to develop the in
dustral interests Of the South and to stimulate the
urOtactiO0 of those glltDlaa uhia Iar0RlV
into the financial interests Of the country At the
same time, it would be wise policy to afford the peo
pie of that section an opportunity to become pc
cunary interested in the successful maintenance Of
