THE Capital question continues to oc-
cnpy the attention of the Legislature.
The House of Delegates as well
As the Senate consumed the great
er part of their sessions yesterday
in balloting for a location, but without
result. Ii they do not agree very soon,
we think the members should turn their
attention to something more practiea-
bic in the way of legislation. Under
the direction Of their Accomplished
leader, they ought to dispatch great
deal of public business, and they will
disappoint the general expectation
ii they do not avail them
selves of the advantages his experience
affords them. Speaking of "the leader
of the House" reminds US of police

changes. ~ chap was arraigned for

In former times the revenues from
banking were considered the property
Of the States: now they flow into the
national treasury. Congress, in divert
ing them from their rightful channel,
has left. but little, else, and even that
little Mr.. RASpALL,s bill would take
away. ~ -.,is .iDrr. "l !
-'e A co-tcmporary makes some CON- com
ments upon this subject which may be
worthy Of consideration:
Is it not true that Government exer-
cises power enough, financially as well
as otherwise, without. absorbing die
local right settled certainly by pre-
scription Of bankingf The States
yielded their old bank system promptly,
believing that it was required by, the
national interests. But they did not
suppose they were giving up everything
with it. They did not think that the
needs Of local trade were to be directly
provided for by Congress, at best q
changeable and irresponsible body lot
this purpose, or that crude Congress
ional laws were to supplant the
established and accepted laws OF
business. There is o sort Of presump-
ton In this proposal to make the Gov
ernment the great banking agentof the
country, before the request has even
been preferred by the hanks OF the lpeo-
pie, which is reconcilable with nothing
but ignorance of the public welfare OF

local banks of the country should suffer
no disturbance. Let us have some sort
Of system long enough to prove its ner-

to specie payments with as iittfe delay
as is consistent with the demands OF
business and the welfare of the coun-

RIVER NEWS.

The RIVER wasfailins last night, with
about twenty feet water.
The steamer Eagle was hard aground
a short distance below the
city. Two small boats were endeavor-
ing last evening to pull her off,. "
2" A telegram received yesterday stated
that the steamer New State had been
caught and tied up at West Columbia,
some distance above Point Pleasant.
She was badly damaged. The wharf
boat of Messrs. Booth, Battelie 81 Co.
was caught and tied mp at Grenupsbnrg,
KY, where she lay in rathera dilapida-
ted condition. The Hillmar was lying
at Pomcroy, being seriously disabled.
The tow-boat Sam Brown and four

: Playing Cards.

Cards were invented in 1881 by Jacquem-
in Grugenmour, to amuse King Henry W.,
of France, who ut that time was mad.
The ace was made the best card in the
pack, being derived from the French
word ""4rgeat,, signifying the money,
and to show that king could not get
along without il, IS q meniaf card back
ed by the ace would triumph over o
king. The kings were called David,
Alexander, Cesar and Charlamagne; the
queens were named Argine, ,Rachel, Pailes,
Judith; the varlets or knaves represent
ed the squires to the kings and were
named Launcelot, 0gler, Renard and
Hector; tens, mines, &c, represented the
foot soldiers. The ace of clubs was 90
named and formed to represent clover
leaf, and to signify to the king that .
good general would encGlnp his army
where pasturage was plenty. The acc
of spades represented the halberts car
riej by the foot soldiers; the ace Of dia-
monds represented the heads Of the Ar
rows used by cross-bovmen, and the ace
of hearts represented the courage Of the
knights and soldiers.

four short webbed feet, with five toes
behind and four in front, has cost the
city Of Cincinnati some $500. The pipes
in the locality where it was found have
again and again been stopped and
broken in vain, until they succeeded in
