NH. HOOPRR,s BILL.

Let us all look once more, and closely, at the
bill which Mr.. Hooper Of Boston-a protested
friend of Resumption and of Secretary MeCul-
loch's photographers as a substitute for the
measure reported by Mr.. Morrill, from the Com
mittee of Ways and Means. Here is the Hooper
continuance:
BE il enacted &C.. That the act entitled An Act to
provide ways and means to support the Government,
approved March .. 1855 shall be extended and con-
srued TO empower the Secretary of the Treasury to
sell any description OF bonds authorized by said act
such rates not less than par he may think advisable
for lawful money OF the United States to receive in
payment any Treasury notes Compound Interest notes.
Certificates OF Indebtedness or of Deposit with the
interest accrued thereon, which have BEEN or which
may be issued under any act Of Congress IL shall be
the duty the Secretary of tho Treasury to retire and
cancel an amount of the Treasury notes certificates or
other obligations bearing interest equal In amount to the
bonds disposed Of; and the public debt Shall not here.
after be increased by authority OF this or any previous
acts of Congress and from and after the LIST day Of
July next the interest on certificates OF deposit Tor
temporary loans shall not exceed the annual rate Of five
per centum.
The former part OF this bill would seem to
allow the Secretary to sell any description OF
bonds :" for lawful money of the United States"
that is, to fund the Greenbacks-but the latter
part nullifies this, by requiring him to cancel
obligations BEARING interest equal an amount TO
the bonds disposed of"--which is a clear prohibit
ton of any funding Of Greenbacks. We are thus
to keep in circulation -Four Hundred and odd
Millions of National promises to pay dollars
which are not TO be paid in dollars, and Three
Hundred Millions of National Bank Notes which
are only payable in these deliberately, persistent
ly falsiied promises. This may be Resumption,

is it at all astonishing that We can I see 1t

Death Of Professor Beck.

Charles Beck, Phi. d., formerly professor Of
the Latin language and literature in Harvard College.
died Oh Monday at his residence in Cambridge OF
apoplexy. He was born in Germany, and came TO this
country about 80 years ago. As classical scholar no

California under Mexican rule must have been
wholly lovely to the British Free Traders. The
wealth and industry of the entire State were
occupied in producing single article Of export.
She raised cattle for their hides, and threw
away the meat. And properly so, for there was
no market for it. But, on the other hand, see
what careful and persistent protection of manu-
features does for agriculture. The measure OF
its prosperity is the quantity of manure which
it can purchase to increase the fruitfulness OF
the soil. Mcqueen says, in his statistics, that
the market value Of the manure used in En'

1t is regarded as certain that at the next Papal
Consistory one Of the Bishops of the United
States will be created a Cardinal. According
to the prevalent opinion in Rome, this diStinc-
ton is to be conferred not upon any of the
Bishops who during the war showed a warm
sympathy with the cause of the Union, nor
upon one of those who kept a profound silence
on the National question, nor upon any OF the
seven Archbishops, but upon the special envoy
from Jefferson Davis to Rome-Bishop Lynch
of Charleston. OF course, this opinion rests
only on rumors, and may yet turn out to be
without foundation.
We see it also stated as probable that one OF
the Mexican Bishops will be raised to the dig
nitv of Cardinal.
