McCulloeh's financial policy is wrench
ing the public prosperity of the country.
The vote Of the House in Congress the
other day against contraction, was but a
faint echo of the voice of the people
which will ere long be heard in Washing
ton like the sound of many waters. The
poor and feeble have already cried out,
but their vail has not been heard. The
stronger and deeper tones of the great
are beginning to rumble, as witness the
following from the Wheeling (va) In
telligencer of saturday the 7th instant
ave were told yesterday that all work
had been stopped at the Whitaker Iron
Works on Thursday evening. We noticed
that all the boiling furnaces mp at the
Wheeling Iron Works were dark and cold.
Only the nail machines were in operation.
We trust that these suspensions are but
temporary, as hundreds Of laborers are
thus thrown out of employment. With NO
work, and just entering upon winter, the
prospect is anything but pleasant to the
workmen, and we believe that our manu-
fActurers would very willingly continue
operations, did the circumstances iustify."

THE Press and Times speaks of the
depreciation to utter worthlessness of
greenback currency, in the event that
$2,400,000 should be issued in addition
to the amount already in existence We
have yet to hear of any proposition of
that sort. In the paragraph to which the
Press and Times is replying, we advo-
Gated the issue Of sufficient quantity
Of treasury notes in substitution of all
the national bank currency, and in re-
demption Of the bonds upon which it
was based, and Of as much more of the
bonded debt as was necessary, to supply
the business demands Of the people That
policy, by the stimulation it would inn
part to every branch of industry, and
the relief it would afford from taxation,
would appreciate the value of treasury
notes, and by such an approximation to a
uster standard of the measure of values,
would establish business upon a surer
and more satisfactory basis. This being
done, the balance of the bonded obliga-
tons and the burden they impose could
be more easily managed than at present
when even the already deprecated value
Of greenbacks is kept in precarious
condition, a universal depression exists,
general distrust prevails, and the only
thing certain-"the destiny unshunnable

MeCULLOCH HAS A "RING. ;.

The money editor of the New York Err
PreSs says:
"Ihe FIVE per cent. ten-forty bonds have
increased $6,687 500, which attracts gems
eral attention and causes considerable as
constituent. The fact that the principal
and interest of these bonds are payable in
gold, and so specified on the face, has made
them favorite with foreign investors cons
sequently the demand for them has greatly
increased since the agitation of paying the
five twenties in greenbacks set in. The
previous debt statement showed that the
Treasury Department had secretly sold
about 100000 of the bonds, which caused
a sharp demand for them at the New York
Office, as well as at other points. The
answer returned to the many inquiries was
that the Secretary had no more bonds to
sell, and that the above amount was only a
small lot left over. There was lurking
suspicion in the public mind throughout
the past month that the Department was
selling ten-forties, from the fact that large
amounts were taken for shipment toiLon-
don, when it was we'll known that no round
lots could be picked up, even in this mar
ket, which is certainly the principal mart
for government securities on this continent.
There is no little indignation expressed at
the action Of the Secretary of the Treasury
showing such favoritism in the matter.
This conduct reduces the Treasury De-
partment to the level of a brokers' shop,
and we hardly think it would be tolerated
in any other country. The people poured
out their money freely during the rebellion
to sustain the government, and, where
tavorite securities are for sale, there should
be general competition allowed, and every
one placed on the same footing. 1t is time
that this system of conducting the finances
of great country should be abolished.
The 1881 bonds have decreased 1914, 450,
while the ive-twenty bonds have increased
500, 5l4, $50, chiefly owing to the heavy
conversions Of 7>30 notes."
From these facts, and those stated by
the New York Journal Of Commerce,
which we print elsewhere, to-day, in re-
lation to the sale of gold, it would appear
that Mr.. McCulloch has an organized
ring in whose interests the Treasury
of the United States is managed. In the
multiplicity of Congressional investiga-
tons, it strikes us as highly appropriate
that there should be a thorough over
hauling of McCulloch's transactions. We
should regret that an officer of his char
acter should seem to be obnoxious to
charges of official corruption but these
and other facts, heretofore made public,
at least render an investigation proper, if
not necessary

QUALIFICATIONS OF JURORS IN
LOUISIANA--ORDER BY GENERAL

HEADQUARTERS FIFTH MILITARY DIS
TRICT, New ORLEANS, Dec. 5.-Specidl
Orders, No. 203.-Section 2: The true and
proper use of military power, besides der
| Tending the national honor against foreign
nations, is TO uphold the laws and civil
government, and to secure to every person
residing among us the enjoyment of life,
liberty and property. 1t is accordingly
made by act of Congress the duty of the
Commander ofthe District toprotectall per-
sons in these rights, TO suppress disorder
and violence, and to punish or cause to be
punished all disturbers of the public peace,
and criminals. The Commanding General
has been officially informed that the sd-
ministration of justice and especially
criminal Justice, in the courts is ciogged. If
not entirely frustrated by the enforcement
of paragraph No. of the military order
numbered Special Order 125, current series
from these headquarters, issued on the 18th
of August, A. ID. 1867, relative to the
qualifications of persons to be placed on the
Jury list of the State of Louisiana. TO
determine who shall not be Jurors pertains
to the legislative power, and until the act
in existence regulating this subject shall be
amended or changed by the department of
the civil government which the constitu-
tons Of all the States under our republican
system vest with that power, it is deemed
best to carry out the will of the people as
expressed in the last legislative act upon
this subject. The qualifications of Juror
under the laws is proper subject for the
decision of the courts. The Commanding
General, in the discharge of the trust re-
posed in him, viii maintain the Just power
of the Judiciary, and is unwilling to permit
the civil authorities and laws to be embar-
raised by military Interference, and it is an
established fact that the administration of
Justice in the ordinary tribunals is greatly
embarrassed by the operations of paras
graph No. 2, special orders No. l25, cur
rent series, from these headquarters. 1t is
ordered that said paragraph, which relates
to the qualifications of persons to be placed
on the jury lists of the State of Louisiana
be, and the same hereby is revoked, and
that the trial by jury be henceforth regu~
lated and controlled by the constitution
and civil laws, without regard to any mill
tary order heretofore issued from these
headquarters. By command of

IMMIGRATION boards and associations
are very good things, and should be en-
cOuraged in every properway, but they can
offer no argument or inducement to white
men of any nationality to reside in, or
invest capital in State where negroes

first efficient practical step that can be
taken towards promoting immigration.

Caucus of Republican Senators.

WAsHNaToN, Dec. ia caucus Of
the Republican Senators was held this
morning to consider the propriety of a
new election for officers of the Senate, and
particularly Sergeant at-Arms in place
of the present incumbent After an express
sion of their views an adjournment took
place under such circumstances as to pro-
duce the impression that the whole subject
was indefinitely postponed, there being no
disposition on the part of the majority to
make such change.
Gen. Ord has issued an order declaring
that the convention has been carried in
Mississippi and Arkansas. He orders the
conventions to assemble at Jackson and
Little Rock, respectively, on the 9TH of
January, 1868. The order says there are
such Irregularities at some Of the precincts
as to make it impossible to give a total
vote in the State for and against the Con-
vention.

day, and the following National Executive

meet at the call Of the chairman was

A resolution providing for the licensing
of distilleries in the sum of from $3.50 to
$1,000, and taxing sales of distilled spirits,
was adopted. Also, that the convention
use its efforts to promote the collection Of
the legitimate tax on spirits; also, defining
distilled spirits to be crude spirits, the pro-
duet of one distillation only and each bar
rel to be stamped, and any barrel leaving
the distillery unsramped shall be eonfs-

We give this morning the text OF
another admirable order from the new
commander at New Orleans. Its effect
is to revoke an order from his prede-
cessor requiring revision of the jury
lists in the State Of Louisiana excluding
all white citizens unqualified as voters
under the reconstruction acts, and ad-
hitting to the jury-box the registered
class without distinction of color; and
to restore the jury system as it was
established under the constitution and
laws of that State.
1t is refreshing to read such sentences
from a hand which, though directed by
law to hold the sword, yet nobly dares to
keep it sheathed in the presence of
civil authority.

There exists feeling among many
leading Republicans that the Freedmen

injury to the freedmen Throughout the

this would meet the appreciation of the

the Chairman ofthe House Committee on
Freedmen's Affair, has. been in extensiy.
correspondence with parties in the late
rebellious States, and SO far the opinion
seems TO be in favor Of continuing the Bn
reau. Many Of these letters state that the
abolition of the Bureau would do much t.
defeat reconstruction in many of the States

when the committee reports to the House
