THE PROPOSED EUROPEAN MAIL STEAMERS
- Data" says:-Postmaster General Randall
has vet under advlsement the action that
should be taken by him In reference to the late
act OF Congress, providing for The establisb.
Inent of a line Of mail STEAMERS between Ney
York and Liverpool. The law does not give
the Postmaster Generai discretion absolulsIy
IN The matter, but inasmuch as the parties who
got IN The project and lobbied the bill tbron1o
are men OF limited responsibility, and soma Of
them entirely without means, the PostIn a,ter
General does not seem warranted in giving the
Governments guarantee TO S3O00,00n without
receiving some security for the faithful anpli-
cation OF this large sum to the purposes con.
templaied by the act Of Congress.
TuREEIssUR OF LEGAL TENpKRs.-Tbe s,eo-
retaIy of the Treasury has decided that he has
rover TO reissue any legal tender notes that
NAV have been redeemed but not cancelled
provided the amount outstanding does no,
txoeed four hundred millions OF doI,ars. This
will obvlate the necessity of further sales Of
bonds OF gold by the Treasury and enable tha
Secretary 10 afford substantial RELIEF to tha
money market. Although opposed TO the fnr.
,osr issue OF currency, ne feels justified N
to relieve the present critical condition of
financial affairs.
