Comment bu The Tribnne.

Resumption by our Government would not
make one single dime of our foreign Debt pay
able in gold that is not so now. Our bonds
held in Europe are not now payable at all
and would not be after Resumption. Their
holders could send them here, sell them, and
draw the proceeds in gold; and that they can
do nO,C-cOuH have done at any moment since
they bought the bonds. Whatever we now
owe Europe is payable, when payable at all,
in coin, and. whether yet payable or not, can
be sold in our market at any time and the
proceeds drawn away TO Europe in coin. If
the European holders of our Government bonds
saw fit, they could throw them all upon our
market tomorrow, sell them, and draw on us
for the proceeds In coin. They will not do it,,
simply because they would thereby sacrifice
their bonds for good deal less than they
were worth. And that very same considera-
ton would prevent their doing the same foolish
thing after Resumption as well as before. We
feel ashamed for our country that it should
seem necessary to state so obvious a truth.

an excellent education. He early became a
Democratic politician of the Van Buren, school,
and was an active, determined champion of the
Free Soil movement in in 1878. lie migrated
TO California about 1853 and was for some time
an editor in San Francisco; then reverted to
the practice Of the law, having been admitted
to the bar of our City some years before he
left u.s. He has considerable ability, and is q
man of irreproachable character. We speak OF

SIR: You have for long time maintained
the idea that II the Government Specie Payments

that the sreenbacks would not aR be presented for pay

Is it not astonishing that you should leave out OF

consider his bond equal TO par in gold Alas Mr TRB

THE SUPERVISORS MlYDAurS


The counsel in the case of Smith Ely, jrp
against the Board Of County CanyaSscrs, ap-
peared in Court again yesterday but the mat
ter was further postponed until Monday. The
delay has been occasiOncd by the fact that the
Board of Supervisors, who act as County Can
yassers, on Tuesday last made an answer to
Mr.. Ely's application for a mandamus to com
pei them to canvass the votes for Supervisor,
in which they alleged that he had not received
the highest number of votes for that Office but
they neglected TO swear TO their answer. Two
adjournments have since been made 20 enable
their counsel TO find some ono willing TO make
the necessary affidavit; but it has not yet been
produced When we consider that each mem
Der of the Board of Supervisors, when he
assumed the office, took solemn oath that he
would discharge its duties honestly and faith
fully, it seems strange that, at this late day.
they should hesitate 10 swear that black IL
white in any matter in which their interests
are involved We presume, therefore, that
some one of them will by Monday be brought
to the sticking point OF swearing that to be
true which every one howS TO be false.

talk about ports being big enough TO hold
"the navies of world" without very clear
idea how much room ship needs to safely ride
out storm. 1t appears that on the day of the
earthquake the vessels at St. Thomas were
crowded so close together that when the bore
came rushing into the harbOr the great ships,
swaying to and fro at cables length, crushed
the smaller ones lying next them. This seems
TO prove that st. Thomas is not such COM
modious naval station as the pastoral poet of
Annapolis represents it.

The Hon. Horatio Seymour, Ex-Governor OF
our State, recently announced his determination
not to be a candidate for next President.
1t would have seemed to us in better taste to
defer this announcement; but there are
weighty authorities against us on this point.
At all events, bad taste is not insncerity, and
the Intimations which have reached US that
Gov. S. will not abide by bis published de-
cision evince ignorance of palpablc facts. Gov.
Seymour is not merely ont of the canvass, but
his intimate, devoted friends are acting as
they would never do ii it it were designed to
run him in any contingency. We know some
of those friends personally, and know that
they are in good faith supporting other candi-
dates. Gov. S. does not profess TO have re-
nounced political life and he may accept some
other position should 1t be rendered him, but
he is ont of the race for next President

With the morning reading to be given to-
day. Mr. Dickens takes leave of New-York for
the present, to return, we hope, before long and
renew the triumph of the last 40 weeks.
The completeness Of that triumph il not to
be questioned, and it has been gained by the
pure force of genius, without resort to artiiice
or clap-trap. Mr.. Dickens came among us
quietly and un0Stentat0usly he has kept HIM
self since his arrival in marked seclusiOn
and has applied himself to his business of read
ing with as much devotion as if he were just
starting out in life, with his own fortune
and that of a large family of orphan brothers
and sisters dependent on his exertiOns. We
think that in all this Mr. Dickens has showed
good taste and tact, and he has succeeded III
public attention upon his read
ings rather than upon himself, which is no
doubt. exactly what he wished to do. AS for
what we cannot help thinking the youthful
indiscrcton of his American Notes" we dare
say he has been himself little surprised to
find how entirely it is forgotten and forgiven,
and how unchanged Is our old admiration for
the genius and humanity displayed on every
page of his writings. We trust that his visit
NAV prove profitable and pleasant to the end,
and that no engagement at home may seem SO
