HThe report Of the Comptroller
of the currency, Ito Congress, is a
very important and interesting docu-
ment, discussing, as it does at great
length, the questions connected with
banks and currency-questions just
now of great, and paramount interest
to the American people. He thinks
the banks, which pay taxes ranging
from four to seven per cent. in the
aggregate, upon their capital, bear a
full share of the public burthen, and
that they can not pay more without
Increasing the rates of interest
charged to- borrowers. He argues
strongly and at length against the
proposition to substitute greenbacks
for National Bank notes; opposes in
fiatton of the currency, and urges
gradual contraction, with view to
the resumption of specie payments
at an early day. He furnishes
figures to show that the Government
would lose $4,000, 900 a year by sub
stituting greenbacks for bank notes

W The Portsmouth Times, I!

~ The Portsmouth Times, the
democratic organ Of Scioto county,
in speaking of the election in the
first Ward of that city, says:
"The evidence indicates fraud of
some character in the First Ward,
but how, or by whom perpetrated,
has not been developed"
AS the fraud was one wholly for
the benefit of the democrats, it is
very easy to determine by whom it
was perpetrated. No further devel-
opements are needed to show that.

A New Financial Scheme.

Senator SHERMAN has prepared q
financial bill, which fe will soon offer
for the consideration of Congress.
The Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati. Gazette thus states its
provisions:
sit provides for six per cent.
bond. to run thirty years, principal
and interest payable in coin, at the
pleasure OF the Government, after
ten years. OF the interest, FIVE per
cent is to be paid to the holder, and
one per cent. retained in lieu OF
National and State taxsss The halt
of the one per cent, isto . paid u
the States in proportion to popula-
ton, and the other half to create q
sinking fund for the payment of the
principal of the loan.s The holders
of legal tender notes are to have the
right to convert them into these
bonds, and afterward convert the
bonds into legal-tender notes. as cur
rency may be needed. Holders cf
five -twenties, after the expiration OF
the first five years. are to be required
to exchange for the new bonds under
the penalty of having interest stop
ped. This measure, it is believed,
will deprive the Secretary of the
Treasury of very nearly all discre-
tionary power, and, with some
amendments putting a limit to the
balances carried in the Treasury, il
is believed it will give general salts
faction to the members of both
Houses. The provision permitting
the conversion of the bonds into
greenbachs will satisfy the expan'
sionists. who are largely in the ma
jority in the House. Buffers plan
has but few friends in the Senate.

IEssRs EDITORS: Having established our
selves at the Old Stamping Ground, We deem it
our duty to advise the public of the superior ex-
oellence Of our goods, &c. On looking over the
advertisements in your valuable paper We find
that our neighbors have in use in fact have used
up, in putting their unsightly mixture of old and
new goods. all of the words that would approx
mately express the superior inducements that we
are enabled to offer the public for reason of our
stock being entirely nen. One party advertises
that his goods are the very best possible the very
cheapest possible and the very prettiest possible
Another party advertises in the same manner,
another in the same and so on to the end of the
list Now, all our merchants being high-minded,
honorable men, their advertisements being the
same, their goods and prices must be SO likewise
But, Messrs. Editors our goods are at least two
degrees better, and as many prettier and cheaper
than those Of our neighbors; and as there is no
word now in use that will bear dramatically
the addition of two extra degrees, we offer, as a
reward to the party who will create and legalise
such word, for our special use, (the cord to be
an adjectire,) quantity of all of the following
choice and NEST desirable goods, from our o,on
stock:
