The Future of Our National Banks.

The Future of Our National Banks.
The British mind is morbid so far as the pros
poets of the financial success of any other coun-
try but its own are concerned. team see no good
that comes out of any foreign Nazareth, and
especially out of the United States. The Lon
don Economist, in a labored article on our
National Banking system, draws a conclusion
which ought to make us all tremble, even ii it
don't. After pretending to review without
partiality the prospects of the system, it con-
cludes with this i'll. omened prophecy
UNLESS notifications are speedily intro
duced, OF which at present there is no sign
whatever, but the exact contrary, IL Is not dith.
cult 10 foresee the manner in which the National
Bank system will sooner or laLer come TO an
end. The large number OF incompetent, mex
peIienced, careless, schemlng, and specializing
people who have forced themselves or been
attracted into the control OF national banks,
will grossly mismanage the business. They
will uissipate the deposits in foolish or disre-
Iutable advances, ana the banks VIII fall.
Under the law of prior lien, the Government
will, oul of any available assets as far as pOss-
BILE. pay tseli lirst ana in full, the amount OF
It's deposits, and the ordinary creditors, as in
the recent case at New Orleans, will be left
without farthing. The notes of the failed
bank will be at least to some extent covered by
the lodgment of Federal securities, but there
will be wide field oringeuious financing in the
realization, sudden or gradual of these securi-
ties, ana In the cancelIlng' suuuen or gfauualy
OF the particular national bank notes tainted
by default. If is very possible that series OF
failures OF national banks may create panic
and bring down large part OF the organization
at once, or the d1strust and dissatisfaction may
operate more gradually, During the last TWO
years the national banks have had all In their
aVor. They have run up their circulation from
twenty-five TO sixty millions sterllng au0
prices have all been rising. They have now
reached the limit TO which they can issue
notes and the process OF reaction has set In
which, by slow stages aud after considerable
interval, will render cash payments again pos
sible. But this period OF reaction Is preclsely

The N. Y. Tribune has highly sensible
article ON the subject of oolored men holding
Officer
"Mr. Wendell Phillips. in the last number of
the Anti- Slavery STANDARD, makes a confession
OF faith, which is explicit enough at any rate
He thinks we ought to go about seeking those
colored men who are At for office, and take
sedulous care that they obtain it, In other
words, TO quote his own language, we should
laDor 10 elect men TO office merely because they
are black, Mr. Phillips might just as well in
sist tnhJ Jne honors and emoluments of Office
should be equally divided between blaok.haired
men and red-haired men. The color of a mans
SKIN is no reason either for or against his cleo
uon 10 othce. We certainly do not go about In
search Of all the proper white men, and take
pains that they all get Offices, and we can see no
reason Why such an extraordinary preference
as MI. Phillips demands should be shown to the
Dlacks. When he has proved that the oolored
people have greater natural fitness for public
employment than any other race, It will be
Time enough to ask us TO vote for them simply
on the ground that they are not white"

the kind of ordeal which host Of new banks,
hastily set up for political purposes, and largely
in the hands Of persons utterly ignorant OF
sound banking rules, are least likely TO en-
counter with success OF survive with credit"
We may be blind, but, so far as we can see,
no symptoms Of the ''reaotion' are visible to
any but foreign eyes.

New Set OfTuncs.

Democracy, for long time, ha
been the best representative of tha
highly musical instrument, the hand
organ; there being only this differ
ence: while the organ, by changing
the stops, would play several tunes
the Democratic organ played tn,
same one all the time. Its tune wa.
solely and alone "Democracy,'
Democratic principles change, new
er."
Times have changed; the Demo
cratic organ has been repaired-i.
now capable of playing any tune i'm
aginable, in any time conceivable.
BY the old organ--the unchangablt
Union soldiers were of but little ac
count, were the "scum and filth o
the North, utterly unfit for the asso
citation of good Democrats. BY The
repaired and improved organ, they
are a glorious set Of boys, who wen,
forth in time Of danger to rescue the
country from impending doom. The
change of tune was not made to get
the soldiers vote--not at all.
Old organ South. "Niggers are
beasts, and are not fit for any thing
but to do the work of their superior
Anglo Saxon masters" and they
smell strong. Now they "are our
fellow citizens worthy Of being al
lowed the ballot, and to be good
Democrats, while as to smell, new.
mown hay can't beat them
The war was failure in 1864 -
Now 1t not so much of failure and
the rebellious States are better than
ever, being purified by being whip
ped, much better than the States
that whipped them in.
Once this was exclusively q white
mans government. Now it is not to
as great an extent The Southern
organ proposes to govern it with the
help of the negro.
Connecticut, according to the old
organ, was State after the blue bel
ly order; it was settled by a set of
believing people, and
horse shoes nailed to doors were the
only protection they had from utter
destruction. Now it is ground out
in another form. 1t is the glorious
old Commonwealth, and there is
not o-mit"h- -r;,iin NnooLinu III stance
Of it.
And so on and so forth, indefinite
ly. The new organ grinds exactly
TO suit the times, and the want OF
votes felt by the Democratic party.
1t is very peculiar organ, and grinds
out the tune of the monkey nigger'
n Ohio, while in the South it charm
ngly adapts itself to the tune of
Our colored man and brother"
democratic principles never
,hange; they are the same in one and
III places"

Under the head of "Backing out
Throwing the Negro Overboard," the
Courier, of last week calls our at
tention 10 an article from the Gin
cinnati Commercial, in which the lat.
ter with its usual way Of trying to be
on all sides, at once, declares against
the Constitutional Amendment. We
fail to see any point to the article
cited, except that it is clear mis-.
representation of facts. 1t says that,
"according to the Provost Marshal's
books, there are "a 900 Ohio soldiers
still charged with descrtion, ,lwho will
be DISTINGUISHED under the amend
ment." The facts of the case are,
that by the official records of the
Adjutant Generals office, War De-
partmcnt. the total number of Ohio
deserters, after April /, 1865, is
l ,063. And of this number, the Ohio
State Journal says, two. thirds have
been restored to the rolls.
These figures and those of the
Commercial show a wide difference,
and official records show that the lat.
ter are correct.
If the Courier wishes articles from
the Commercial to carry much
weight, it must credit them to some
other paper. Politically the Com.
mercial is call things to all men,"
and is only sustained by both parties,
rom the fact that it is an enterprising
paper and furnishes large amount
of late news. In politics that paper
is rs much Democratic as Republi-
can,
