held in each city, perhaps under the
auspices Of the Chambers of Com

4 The great West can spare some OF
its bounties as we'll as not, and the
people there have generous hearts
and willing hands to help save dying
women and children ID Now what is
only wanted in each Western city is
for some one to staff the thing, by
calling a meeting, getting the proper
persons to speak, and have the sub
Iject properly presented, and a re-
Spouse can hardly fail. We may thus
encourage in a legitimate manner
these Spartan soldiers to throw back
their oppressors, and restore that
classic island to Liberty ltoI civiliza
ton, to- her mother Greece. We
merely undertake, however, the Sa-
marian office of saving the women
and children from starving-at least
such of them as shall have been saved
from the Turkish saber.

Governor wells. Message.

The message of Governor Wells of
Louisiana, is straight forward bust
ness like document. He laments the
misfortunes which have oyertaken
the people in the overflow of their
lands, the destruction of crops by
worms, and the arrangements of la
Dor, but thinks the time will soon
come when immigration will pour
into the State, making it in capital,
enterprise and intelligence, rival Of
the Northwestern States. Sr n, .'.-. se,.
Concerning the Constitutional
amendment and the question of re-
construction, he says:
In view of the diverse opinions well
known to exist between the members
of theGeneral Assembly and myself.
oa-allmatters connected with the re-
construction of the State, Z shall not
take up your time by entering into an
extended discussion of the features of

Our Financial Evils.

The regular Financial dad COmB,ercidF
department of the Crisis" of the 26th De-
cember, affords us the following lucid ar
sument on the present financial evils Of the
country, which every reader should can
didly consider:
Since the convenlng OF what claims to be
Congress, indications OF their line of finan-
cial policy have been manifesting them
selves, and not generally in harmony with
that Of the Secretary of the Treasury, who
sscrlbes pretty much all the ills of the
country to the excessive issue of paper cur
Fency that it is the chiefcause of the COM
mercial tremor that quickens the pulse and
shorter the breath of all sections, and that
portends frightful future to every kind
OF business; his remedy is the conversion
Of the greenbacks into government bonds
Sn which the interest as well as the princi-
pal is to be payable In gold thereby add
ing the modest additional sum of $25,0O0,-
600 year ia gold To the taxes of the cOun-
try!
That this rulnous. flood of some $1,000,
OOO,OO0 OF paper money has been at the bot
tom of our Vicious financial system, that
now threatens universal deluge, we have
always said; and we predicted long ago
what the Secretary now warns the country
Is likely ere long to occur. But that his
plan for dispasing of II, however honest his
purpose, Is a statesmanlike one we do not
believe. If the currency Is to be dimin-
ished we again repeat, let the National
Banks be wiped out, and the bonds on
which they are based be Withdrawn and
caneelled-thus saving annually TO tht
country from twenty 10 ntty millions oi
taxation on the bonds, and N interest OF
the circulation of these banks, aad leave
the gpeenbacks, on which the people pay
no taxes, 10 be the last 10 be Withdrawn.
Nor do we believe with the Secretary
who looks 70 this as the chief cause Of tn
present embarrassed condition OF the eouh
trv. In this stage OF the vicious game o
finance, that has been played by the collu
sion OF rogues for the heneflt OF "classes
of Bankers and Fund Mongers--lt'
mors especially due TO excessive taxation
The Daily empire. (Dayton, Ohio) 1865-1867, 1867-01-03

fate Of Dr. Dorscy, who undertook 10 save
this Interest TO the State, no Treasurer
Whatever be may desire 10 do, will trans
grcss the lcttor 81 the law. The State oft
Gers generally agree that the law ought 70
be iuodiflcd
The thrifl aud progress of tho State are
exhibited In the large increase OF new
buildings during the year, nearly doubling
the number erected IN 1860 and also In the
increase OF marriages, the number exceed
lng. by at least 5000, the figures of 1863.
There are also shown IN the valuation OF
property over S36,500,0O0, having been
added 20 the amount the past year. There
has been a considerable increase also IN
mortgages for money loaned, as also IN the
number OF certificates issued for incorpo-
ration Of manufacturing companics, all in
dleating confidence in the stability of bus
iness IN the future.
The benevolent institutions Of the State
appear to be economically and successfully
managed. The capacity of the institutions
ior the insane need to be largely increased
to accommodate those who should be within
thcir walls. Tho expenses Of the peniten-
tiary still exceed The receipts from convict
labor by over sixteen thousand dollars
lowing, the Governor naively adds, to the
fact that the contracts for the labor were
made WHOM the value Of labor was much
lower and the expenses Of living also. The
| Legislature would do q wise thing to do
away Sith the contract business entirely,
or at least limit contracts to short periods.
Three-fourths Of the cOnvicts are under
thirty years OF age, and the Governor sug-
gests whether IL Is not advisable 10 separate
! young offenders from the old and modify
the discipline for them
] A considerable portion Of the message Is
devoted to the military affairs Of the State.
The State agents for collecting the claims
Of discharged soldiers and of their families,
free Of charge, strange to say, do the least
portion Of the work-the applicants prefer
/ ring to employ private attorneys and claim
agents, possibly. as the Governor suggests,
from ignorance of the provision made by
the state for collecting the claims.
