70 the Treasurer as 10 the disp )sition 70 BE-
made Of their bonds, is reduced from six
months to four. This change is necessitated by
the postponement of the bill, as the holders Of
notes which mature early next year would
hardly have time to send a letter so as TO reach
the Treasurer six months before the maturing
of the bonds. Unless CONGRESS acts on the bill
Immediately, the four months viii have to be
stlll further reduced, and the knowledge ac-
quired will then hardly be received at the De.
partment in time for provision to be made tor
liquidation.
Another amendment prescribes that after
January l. 1867, the lawful money required
to be kept by national banks as a reserve
fund shall not consist in whole or in part of
interest bearing notes or bonds. The effect
OF this proyiso will not be to withdraw from
the national banks the necessity of protect.
ing their issues by deposits, but win enable
the Government to get within it's reach
these interestbeariug notes, which, so long
as they are locked up as deposits, will be beyond
control, although the interest was required 10
be paid.
One vital change was m9de in the nature of
the bill, and then it passed the Senate. The
change struck out the provision for issuing five
per cent. bonds, and also for having them called
the consolidated debt aud substituted no amend
ment in its place; so that the bill, as adopted,
merely appropriates $780, 900 annually to
pay the interest and with the surplus TO hqui
date part of the principal With the loss of the
five per cent bond provision VIII come into
play law passed some months siacp, which
gives the Secretary Of the Treasury power to
issue funding bonds at rate of interest not
more thar six per cent.
In place. therefore, OF beinr consolidated
debt, at NOT more than tve per cent. it becomes
discretionary with the Secretary whether the
bonds given in exchange shall bear as much as
six per cent. or course, it will be to the adyan-
tage of the Government to negotiate as cheap a
loan as possible, but there seems TO us TO be
sound reason for leaving the la " in such a shape
that, il the people should not take the 8 per
cents, the Government might give them 6s
1t does not necessita'e the highest rate allowed,
but leaves 1t possible to secure the success of the
tunc1ng plan at six per cent, if il does not sue
ceed at less rate. We have sufficient confidence
in Secretary MCCULLoCH to entlust TO him ne
discretionary power awarded by the bill. The
law, as finally passed, will be found in another
column.
We urge upon the House TO proceed to take
immediate action on it as it comes from the
Senate. There is not day or an hour to spare
The opportunity is rapidly passing away; it il is
allowed to slip by unimproyed, the responsibility
OF financial confusion will rest on the members,
and will be visited on their heads. There is no
more important question that can possibly arise.

The Position OF france towards Prussia

The Position OF france towards Prussia
THOSE who expect France TO lend either moral
or physical support to Prussia in pushing her
victorious arms further south ward. are likely to
experience disappointment. 1t is not the policy
of NAPOLEON to build up a great and rival
power in Europe. We shall be surprised if he
do not attempt by diplomacy to compel Prussia
to abandon some OF the substantial fruits even
OF her present campaign. For. could Prussia
hold on to these and establish her power firmly
over the countries she has just Overrun with her
armies it would nearly double her present area
ard population, and would MAKE her a nation
superior in physical resources and q lite as for
midable in military power as France herself
Doubtless the following little extract from
La France of July s, written Just after news of
the great battle of Sudowa had reached Paris,
correctly expresses the public sentiment of the
people well as OF the ruler of France upon this
topic. 1t says:-
"The Emperor, in a noble burst of patriotism,
had declared that he detested the treaties OF
ISl5-all France detests them as much as ne
does. Well, then, the most dangerous thin for
us, created by the treaties OF 1876 is DO Eerful
Prussia. On the daY when that power, breaking
through its limits, shall extend from the North
Sea as fur as our frontiers, there would be not
only maintenance OF those treanes but even
an aggrayaion oil them in what is most menacinS
o ourselves. Prussia doubtless understands all
his, and as fortune has favored the ambitious
'nterprses she has beeI medItatng so long, the
general feeling OF Europe would keep her in

;la'ng her supremacy Tor the Federal compact
Uhich kept The German forces in equipoIse e0oud
so great danger for france that no ddninis.
trGtion could possibly accept IT,"
Here we have the direct avowal that the
supremacy of Prussia in Germany would not be
tolerated by the French Government Already
the intervention of France has practically de-
prived Prussia of her Italian ally; and should
the war still go on, it would be no surprising
thing soon to find an Austrian and French ali-
ance. The first effort of the French Govern
ment, as we haze seen, was to obtain an armis-
t1ce between the contending powers. This she
has probably secured. Her next step WILL
doubtless, be to endeayor to rearrange the dis
turoed balance of power by Diplomacy, so as to
restrict Prussia as much as possible from ag-
granOizement consequent upon the present
position. 1t may be that in all this she will
succeed; but 1t not, then look for the advent of
the French armies upon the next battle fields.
