COMPOUND INTEREST. In 1851, says the
Nevada Gazette, Ed Burton loaned SIC, 900
to W. c. Young, for which he took note
bearing interest at the rate Of ten per cent.
a month, and to compound monthly
Young died many years ago, his estate be-
ing insolvent, and nothing was ever paid on
the note. Recently Burton, who is now in
New York, wrote to Isaac Williamson, re-
questing him to calculate the interest on
that note. Williamson commenced the cal
culation, run it up until the principal and
interest exceeded the national debt, when he
concluded that further figuring was waste
of pencils and paper 1t would amount to
more than the total valuation of all the
property on the planet.

VHY NOT RESUMEP

The ". y. Herald gives the following cheer
ing intelligence:
"The bopdholdors the national banks and the foreign
holders OF United states securities aided by the Treasury
force a resumption Of Specie Payments"
We are very glad TO hear it, and only wish
it were true. We have always liked the Nation
al Banks and consider them a public blessing;
but we feared they were fond Of circulating
their notes at discretion and redeeming them
when convenient. If their managers have the
good sense and genuine conservatism to realize
that the touchstone of Specie Payment is as
bencficent to them as it is essential TO the rest
Of us, they cannot fail to do well.
AS to "the foreign holders of United States
Securities" their claims are nor payable and
paid, principal and interest, in gold. If, then,
they choose to have everybody else treated as
well as they must be, they are wiser than most
men, (the ex-Rebels who insist on keeping the
Blacks unfranchised, for example) yet they are
no wiser than every man should be. We con-
gratulate them on their generous sagacity.
AS to " the Treasury Department" we have
heard much of its efforts to force rcsump-
ton of Specie Payments" but seen no works
to correspond with such faith. Keeping Eighty
to One Hundred Millions Of coin boarded for
month after month"; when its use would proba-
bly, bring us halfway TO Specie Payments,
does MT look to us like efforts to force q re-
sumption" Had Mr.. McCulloch persistcntly
used his surplus gold in buying up whatever
species of National obligation was either
cheapest OF most in the way of resumption, he
would have saved the people several Millions
which they have paid for interest, and put the
premium on gold permanently below twenty
per cent Let him begin to-day such course
of vigorous purchase and destruction of Ma
tiOnal obligations, and continue it till his sur
plus was reduced to Ten Millions of coin and
Ten Millions of greenbacks, and he would carry
us within twenty per cent. Of resumption before
the LIST of March. Yet he is not doing, nor
likely to do, anything of the sort. What are
his efforts to force a resumption ~ We ask
the proof.
The Herald, after asserting that there are no
arguments for resumption, gives the following
reasons for opposing it:
The wealth OF the bondholders most OF whom
paid in cOn would be increased thirty cent by
resumption; the property OF all Others would be de-
lions OF every kind OF those who anything would
become much burdensOme; the means OF all
debtOrs-and these embrace the bulk OF the community
would be diminished and their debts increased general
bankruptcy would be the inevitable consequence; the
bondholders and few rich people wonld become richer
while the poor would become poorer There could Do
other result"
ALI which means-as every one who can put
two ideas together must realize--that we ought
mever to resume-that it is heaven upon earth
to issue promises ly tue hundred million. COM

The bills declaring Nebraska and Colorado
States were passed yesterday in the Senate, with
an amendment, which though not as stringent
as that proposed by Mr.. Brown and voted
down, is still sufficient to make civil or politi-
cal prescription on account of color impossible
in either State Mr.. Browns amendment,
urged by Mr.. Sumner, required that
the majority of the people of these Ter
ritories should vote in favor Of the
condition before they should be permitted to
organize State Governments; Mr. Edmund's
amendment, the third section of each bill,
makes it fundamental and perpetual condi-
" ton that within said State there shall be no
abridgcment or denial of the exercise Of the
elective franchise or Of any other right, to any
"person by reason of race or color, except
cling Indians not taxed" This is not
a condition required, but one which is imposed,
and the terms cannot be misunderstood or
evaded. The triumph is complete, and the new
States will be forever pledged to the absolute
justice between man and man. Mcssrs. John
son and DOolittle were, of course, opposed to
impartial suffrage, and the President, who at
the last session vetoed the Colorado bill and
pocketed the Nebraska bill, will refuse TO sign

SALE or PICTURES TONIGHT

Messrs Leeds and Miner viii sell this evening at
auction at the Studio Building in Tenth-st the col
lection Of pictures lately brought from Europe
by Mr. Plgeramt the agent Of the wellknown house Of
Gambart e. Co., London These pictures have
b ,en already noticed in our columns, and We can
only call the attention Of readers TO them again
In general way, They are by French, Belgian and
English artists, most of them well known to our pub
lic and the collection contains average specimens Of
the ability of such men as Baugniet Plassan, Trayer;
DE JOnghc, RuiperCZ, COOmans and others The best
pictures have been pretty well CHILLED from the
gallery by private buyers, but several remain which
will no doubt find purchasers tonight. Alma-Tade-
mas Dance in Rome, LIST Century" PeyrOl Bon
hours Sheep" De JOughe's Careful Mother" are
worth having. We have only time 70 suggest that
fhe paragraph Introductory 10 the catalogue Of the
pictures TO he sold az auction had better have been
omitted. We do not think we ought 10 let pass the
Implication that these pictures are of such extTaOr
binary merit any or all of them, that only the eX-
bsence of serious financial troubles in Europe enables
the agent to bring them here for sale The collection
ut the best was AN indifferent one, and
now that the best appear to have been taken, what
Rre left are merely respectable. The agent ought by
this time to know the New-York public better than
To make such statements, but if he pays that public
rs poor a compliment 10 suppose that it can be
made 20 believe anything and everything we shall
be Obliged 10 undeceive him, far at least as this
Journal is concerned OF course, we do not DENY his
statement in detail. It may De true that bankrupt
bankers may have been obliged to sell one or two of

The extent to which popular sympathy with
the Cretans is spreading in this country is
indicated by the Boston meeting, held this week
under the presidency of DR.. S. G.. Howe, and
addressed by the Rev. Dr. Huntington, ex-Gov.
Andrew and Wendell Phillips. We print on
the second page a full report of Mr.. Phillips's
speech, with a summary of the proceedings. The
direct purpose of this meeting was to raise
funds for the supply of food to the starving
women and children of Crete Dr. Howe's lead
in the movement is evidence enough that it is
an earnest and practical one. His early efforts
in behalf of Greece gave him European
and American fame what he would value
more is, that they gave great help to
Greece in her struggle for independence. He
took with him money and supplies amounting
to 100000 large contribution for the Amer-
ca of forty years agO-and the sincerity of his
interest was further attested by his personal
efforts in Greece itself. We do not suppose
it will be found difficult TO raise at this
day larger sum for an equally good object.
1t is of course TO be understood that those who
appeal for aid to the Cretans do not enter upon
any political crusade, nor propose to themselves
an intervention by our Government. The wives
and children of the Crctans, who are in peril
of being murdered by the Turks if they remain
at home, are in equal peril of starving on the
islands in which they seek shelter. Funds
now called for are to be used, as the
resolutions OF the meeting declare to feed these
women and children. 1t is mission of mercy,
In the discharge of which our zeal may be
kindled by remembering the cause in which the
fathers and sons aud husbands are fighting.
The movement for relief, begun at Boston,
will extend, we presume, to other cities,
and New-York will claim its share of
giving. If a Committee is not at once
raised here, money may be sent directly to the
Boston Committee, which includes some of the
wealthiest and most eminent men Of that city.
And the money ought 10 be given at once. for it

The popular discomfort in France with the
new army scheme is so great that the Govern
ment deems it the wisest policy to retrace It's
steps and make concessions. At recent sup
Elementary election for the Legislative Body
the candidate of the Liberal party based his
claims to the confidence Of the voters chief
ly on his uncomprOmising opposition to
the reorganization of the army. The eff
feet which this position produced upon the
minds of the people in a district where
the Liberal candidate at the last general cleo
ton had only polled a few hundred votes ap-
peared so dangerous that the Government can
didate was instructed to declare in favor of an
important modification of the proposed plan
Notwithstanding this retrograde movement OF
the Government, the Liberal candidate re-
ceived more than 1900 votes. No wonder that,
as we are this morning informed by the Gable
the Council of State has declared against the
plan.
