New-York tribune., 1868-08-26

The excellent letter from Gen. Spinner,
Treasurer of the United States, which we pub
lish to-day, is one of the clearest expositions
of the necessity for speedy return to specie
payments, and of the ease with which that
measure can be effected, which we have vet
read Gen. Spinner sees no reason why re-
sumption should not take place almost imme-
diately and he shows how the National Banks
can aid in the movement. and why they ought to
doso. Resumption-nOt ten years hence, nor five,
but now, at once-is the true way to relieve our
national burdens, and to defeat the schemes of
the dishonest and the ignorant financers who are
trying to ruin our credit and break down our
treasury by partial or complete reputation.
The letter deserves TO be generally read, and
it is so sensiby written that everybody can
understand it,

A SECONDARY LION.

We observe that it is expected of Gen. Nc
Clcllan that Immediately upon his arrival from
Europe he will begin TO make himself useful
by eating a dinner in this city in honor OF
Blair and Seymour. "The Mcclellan Legion
has gone over, as we are informed, body
breechcs bravery and buttons, to Blair 81 Co.,
and The World frankly informs us that tho
LEGION is actively employing itself" in the
present campaign in working for the Demo-
cratic candidates, "tO which object attentions
"shown Gen. Mcclellan WiU be secondary"
This is candid, we admit; but how will the
pilgrim warrior relish 1t when no comes to read
it. or the dinner when he comes to eat
iti Secondary, indeed A very genial way
this is of greeting The coming guest "You are
"only secondary, General! but you shall have
"your dinner for all that SouD-hsh-every
"dclicacy of tho season. All tho choice vim
"tages OF which you care to taste; but in re-
"turn you will be expected to make some sac
"rifice of your personal feelings, and to forget
"what mess we made of il in 1864 We are
"ready TO show you every attention, but 1t
"must be understood that these attentions are
secondary Nominally this is the Mcclellan
LEGION still, but really it is a Blair and Sey-
"mour Club and now, General, we are glad
:" to SEQ you; and what will you take ~ We
don't know how the returning wanderer will
relish this sort of thing-but not over-much,
VIC fancy. 1t will require pretty good dinner
to stir his appetite under such very peculiar
welcome. We suppose that Gen, Mcclellan,
like most military men, has the instincts OF q
gentleman; and this is more than vo can say
for the Committee which proposes to make
him dine in public under such delicate circum-
stances. If Cen Mcclellan has friends who
desire to give him dinner, be the same pub
lie or private, we do not know that it is for
NJ or foe anybody else to object to tho festivi-
ties; bat when it is openly avowcd that the
dining is an clectiOneering scheme in behalf of
Blair and Seymour, "to which object attentions
4" shown Gen. Mcclellan will be secondary" it
Is painful to notice man who has occupied a
really high position SO shamefully insulted.
We feel perfectly safe in predicting that Gen.
Mcclellan will decline any invitation TO dinner
of which he is to be "the secondary hero.

We have received copy of the Address of
the Printers Grant and COlfsK Club of the
District of Columbia. They congratulate their
fellow craftsmen throughout the Union upon
the auspcious opening of the campaign. They
say:
who proudly count Of their number that sngarlV pure
and upright statesman who occupies the second place
ticket should unite together through love q
country and pride OF craft In support OF ths cket
altogether fitting that they who have been aDorihg iOr
the enlightenment Of mankind since fr PACK IN the n
past the glorious genius OF Faust nasned IN speh
dor a benigbted world should stll Do i0unu on tue
Of universal Intelligence without wnlcn hDery eau
not be perpetuaed made to yield the tul measure
of its rich blessings"
They present with fullness the claims Of the
Republican party upon the honest and intelli-
gent portion of the community, and partiCu-
larly upon those workingmen who are striving
for improved relations between labor and
capital and the elevation of the laborer:
"The Republican party, as we have declared, is the
recorded friend of education 1t has taken the rst steps
toward establishing a national system or education:
which national blessing Education II the great heeo
them from the thradom OF capital Let us support tha'
party which win aid us 10 educate our children"
Finally they characterize in fit terms the
aims of the party which supports Seymour and
Blair. We have no fears that class of men
with such opportunities Of informing them
selves of the true issues of the campaign as the
printers possess, will add anything to the
strength of the factions of Rebellion and Re-
pudiatiOn.

CLrBS AND CASH PAYMENTS.

The fate Of the Atheneum Club in this city,
which was recently forced to sell at auction
its furniture, pictures, wines, and other prop
erty, in order to meet its pecuniary Liabilities,
does not seem to us TO furnish so much an Or
gument against the feasibility Of clubs in gen.
eral. as a warning TO all similar associations to
keep out of debt, and TO be content with those
luxures and conveniences which the state Of
the treasury will fully warrant. The rule which
should govern private person in such matters
is clearly enough the best rule for associations
of whatever name or nature; and 1t should DO
specially kept in memory by clubs, because
their most valuable characteristic, when they
are well managed, is economy of expenditure
and because il is possible for them to obtain
credit with fatal facility. Any club, tho money
matters of which are loosely attended to, no
matter how largo may be its membership, is
on the road TO ruin and dissolution. In tho
case OF the Athcneum Club the great mistake
seems to have been that it hired instead Of
owning its house, paying an annual rent Of
nearly $4,000. Every association of the Kind
requires a capital to secure its permanence and
the Atheneum should have been content with
humble quarters until it had saved money
enough 10 build house of its own. If it had
secured this basis of real property, it would
have been much moro likely to keep its mem
bership full; and the circumstance that the
Club was getting deeper and deeper into debt
with no estate of fixed value to fall back upon,
naturally frightened away economical gentle
men. whe had no relish for an assessment. We
do not know that more money was spent upon
furniture, pictures, 60, than was necessary to
render the house agreeable; but the Club had
no right to run in debt for so much as a three
legged stool or a saucepan. The wines should
have been put into the cellars with sober
certainty that they would, within o proper
time, be called for by the members aud paid
for in cash. If tho kitchen Of club Is not
entirely selfsupporting, even at low rates, then
ii would be vastly better for the club to have
no Kitchen at ALL In short, it is not possible
for q club managed with scientific skill and
watchful economy to get into debt; and
it can secure all the comforts which
are really to be desired, by regu-
lated expenditure, with tho same cor
tainty aud safety which mark intelligent
housekeeping in private life and with
frugality which most housekeepers find it
extremely difficult to observe. But debt in all
cases IS the mortal foe of low prices and it
is morally impossible for a club in debt to go
on for q great while without an explosion.

The Express has undertaken to make political
capital out of the prOstration of the shipping
interest and attributes to the Vaccinations Of
the Radicals tho partial disappearance of our
merchant marine from the ocean. This docs
not surprise US; for the same paper. if we als
not mistaken, blamed the Republican party
for the shooting af1ray the other night at ths
Broadway Theater. But inasmuch as Admiral
Semmes, who did more than any other man or
thing to ruin our maritime commerce, is one
of the lights of The ErpreSs'S party, it seems to
us that this last argument Of our cOtemporary
is particularly unfortunate.

We print elsewhere an abstract of the
forthcoming annual report of the Board Of
Education. The statistics show an increase
of attendance in the schools Of nearly 5000.
The cost of teaching the children is ascer-
tained to be about $40 per head. The whole
amount of money expended during the year
was $s.913S1T, which leaves balance OF
$4G.0j4 from the amount deposited with tho
City Chamberlain during the year for educa-
tional purposes. Six new schOOl-houses were
completed and occupied during the year, and
eleven moro nearly completed. The report
asserts that our school system is becoming

In aboshing tho time-honored barbarism
OF public hangings, Great Britain has gone a
q step farther than we have, and set an exam
pie which we hope tho United States will be
prompt to follow. The first instance of an ex-
ecution within the prison walls under the new
Act of Parliament took place at Maidstone on
the 18th inst, and the culprit was strangled in
the presence of only the prison officers, the re-
portcrs, and three other persons II we must
have capital punishment that is the right way
to have it, The executions which we alb
surdly call private in this country, whereat
the prison yards are filed with surging swear
ing mobs, arc little better than the horrible
scenes which used TO take place in front of
the Old Bailey. But the only true measure of
reform is to abolish the butchery altogether.

whose commerce they destroyed, whose de-
Tenders they slaughtered, will mainly be cast
by immigrants from less intelligent cOmmuni-

The Richmond Enquirer and Eramirer, being
in the vein for working out syllogisms, has
gone through the following course of reason
ing: 1. The Radical party holds negroes to be
the equals of white men. 2. Equals always in
termarry. 8. Therefore, if Grant be elected,
all the negroes will marry white wives 4. But
negroes are worshipers and cannibals.
s. Therefore they will eat their wives as soon
az they have married them. 9. And as the
Radicals approve of this sort of thing " the

If anybody has forgotten Mr.. Robert Ould.
the Rebel Commissioner for the exchange OF
prisoners, it is not the fault of that gentleman
himself, for he has lost no opportunity OF
keeping his name and his former functions be-
fore the public. The mission which he seems
to have chosen since the close of the war Is
that of shifting the burden of responsibility
for the sufferiDgs of Union prisoners
in the South from the shoulders Of
the Confederate authorities where it
belongs, to the officers of our own
Government, who never relaxed their efforts
to secure tho liberation of our captive soldiers
by fair exchange. 1t will be remembered
that he was summoned as q witness on the
Wirz trial. and his testimony, had it been given
on that occasion, might have settled the ques-
tion forever; but unfortunately the Court ruled
1t irrelevant, and he was not examined Since
then he has been pOrpetually charging
the blame upon one person after an
othcT according as the fancy took him.
