National Banks.

A statement which has been going
the rounds Of the Democratic papers,
out of which much capital was made in
the last campaign, to the effect that
stockholders in National Banks are not
subject to taxation, is entirely false. The
stockholders of the First National Bank,
of this city, have paid au average of
nearly six thousand dollars year in
taxes on their shares or nearly six per
cent Of the whole capital stock of $780,
600. At the last session of the Legis,
lsture of Ohio, a law was passed, placing
shares of stock in National Banks in the
same list with other personal property,
to be taxed and returned accordingly.
Every stockholder, therefore, pays the
same taxes on his shares as he would
pay if his money we're invested in Ma
tional stock or any other property class
ed as personal" and has no more ex-
emptions or privileges than he would
have in that case. If the war upon the
National Banks is to be fought to the
end, by all means let them have fair
play. They have furnished Us by far
the best circulating medium this coun-
try has ever had, and if the present
banking system is to be abolished, let
it be after il has been proved radically
defective by an impartial Investigation
of the facts, and not on charges trumped
up by politicians for political purposes.

End Of the Indian War.

Col Taylor, Commissioners Of Indian
Affairs, in a communication to the gov
ernment, expresses the opinion that our
difficulties with the Western I1diap
tribes are practically at an end. He
announces that he has concluded treat
les with most of the tribes except
Cheyennes, but states that these have
signifed their willingness to make peace
after they shall have concluded certain
yearly ceremonies in which they have
been engaged during the Council re-
Gently held at Medicine Lodge Creek,
on the Upper Arkansas. This tribe is
one of the most nuneyops; warlike and
restless on the eastern side of the Rocky
Mountains, and openly boast that they
alone have been carrying on war.

ruptcy.

1t has been recently decided in New
York that any property that bankrupt
may have acquired after the fling of
his petition, and antecedent to his dis
charge, is not liable for his debts con-
tracted before the proceedings were
commenced. That is to say, John Doe
having filed his petition for adjudica-
ton in a bankruptcy yesterday, becomes
by way of legacy, or by speculation, a
rich man tomorrow; but though he
may not be discharged from his liabili-
ties for twelve months, the fruit of his
legacy or speculation cannot be touched
for his old debts. Doubtless this is the
law; and it can be defended on just the
grounds that we choose, when we de-
fend the discharge OF debtoFs at all. The
evident intention of the enactment was
TO fix some point at which the debtors
liability should cease, else the law is of
no avail. 1t is now authoritatively de-
tormiDed what that point is. II is mark
ed by the fling of the first petition, and
the accompanying schedules.
