graphical opinions. His is the prairie standard OF
national credit, probably in its highest form. The
national standard must range somewhere between
hts or yet lower level and the standard of perfect
Justice. Such, at least, is fair inference. AS we
come East from the Great Valley toward the AIega-
MES. we reach Ohio. and here we have yet mllder
symptom of national unsoundness in Mr.. sherman
The standard has risen. We pass on and reacn the
great commercial cities of the seaboard, and here we
find an elevated financial morality. Ihe
standard rises to its highest point. We con-
clude tho national credit is to be graded
according to this recognition of elevations this
moral survey of the nights and depths of the national
perceptions of honesty. As we have said, the Wall
ST. view and the European view of the situation
gives net elevation of 75-l0O being the standard of
absolute integrity We accept it fair average.
Should the Republicans prevail in the coming PTesi
dental election, the figure is too ow-we hope much
too low. Should the Rebels and their Northern allies
succeed the figure too high Indeed in that event
the situation would be vibratOry and panicky in the
extreme, and we might look for a repetition of the
fluctuations and losses the deep shadows and dismal
prognostications of the war. The Rebels who would
be brought into power by such anomalous and un-
toward event. we may be sure, would cheaper the
debt damage the credit, and enlarge the obligations
of the nation to formidable and, perhaps runous
extent. J. 5. r.
