New-York tribune., 1868-07-27

Both Houses of Congress having passed the
bill granting increased protection to American
citizens abroad it now goes to the President
for his action. After reasserting the American
doctrine of expatriation, the bill declares that
all naturaized citizens shall receive the same
protection abroad as is accorded to native-bom
citizens and that when it is made known to
the President that such naturalizcd citizen is
uniustly deprived of his liberty by any Gov
ernment, the Pres dent shall demand of said
Government the reasons therefor, and, if un-
satisfactory, he shall demand the release of
the citizen. If this is not granted within n
reasonable time, then the President is to use
such means, not amounting to acts of war, as
he shall deem proper, to effect the release, and
inform Congress of all the facts relating
thereto.

for the protection of Government officials who
were executing laws of Congress in the late
insurrectionary States A veto of the bill dis
continuing the Freedmens Bureau was re-
ceived from the President and passed, nOtwith-
standing his objections. A resolution to pay
the recently admitted Senators from the
Southern States from the commencement of
the fortieth session of Congress caused some
discussion, and an amendment was finally
adopted that they should only draw pay from
the time their States were recognized as en-
titled to representation. In this form the reso-
luton passed. The report of the Conference
Committee on the Funding bill was agreed to
last night The House disposed of great
amount of miscellaneous matter on Saturday.
-Four new members from Georgia were sworn
in. Mr. Hamilton of Texas pre-
sented new articles OF impeachment
against President johnson, which were re-
ferred to the judiciary Committee. The Senates
amendments to the bill granting greater pro-
lection to Americans abroad were cOncurred in.
The Frcedmcn's Bureau bill was passed over
the veto. Resolutions appealing 20 Turkey
in behalf of the people of Crete were
unanimously passed. The laws relating to
customs, commerce, etc, were extended to
Alaska The Committed on the treatment OF Union
prisoners in the South were allowed further
time to take testimony, and the bill reducing
the army and distributing arms to the South
was sent back to the Committee, which dis
poses of it for this session. An adjournment
was then had to nine o'clock to-day.

The first news received in London from the
German North Pole Expedition, which left Ber-
gen, Norway, on the oath of May, is favorable.
The vessel was then in latitude Y, and all on
board were we'll The important object of
this mission was referred to by us at
the time of its departure from Bergen. 1t is
to explore for the first time the eastern coast of
Greenland north of the 10Th degree, and to
penetrate as far nOrthward as possible. In the
opinion of the originator of this expedition,
the celebrated geOgrapher, DR.. Petermann Of
Gotha, Greenland extends across the Arctic Re-
gions as far as the BehTiDg Strait, and the
navigation along the eastern coast is bcset with
comparatively few difficulties. DR.. Petermann,
and with him many of the first scholars Of
Germany, expect great results from this expe-
diton. A Swedish expedition, which is first to
explore Spitzbergen, and from there advance
nOrthward as far as practicable, sailed a few
days after the German expedition.

At Chicago, in 1864, tho Democratic orators
denounced as a tyrant, usurper, and daspOt the
COmmander-in- Chief of the Army who was
fighting to save the land from destruction by
the Rebellion. At New-York, in 1868, the
Democratic orators, cheered by the personal
presence of the Rebels whom Grant was then
fighting in the field, denounce the General-in-
Chief to whom they all surrendered as
" sham hero" At Chicago, Yallandigham was
the soul of the Convention, having then just
returned from his Canadian exile. He and
Seymour framed the platform. At New York
he is again the leader and nOmnates Seymour.
At Chicago the whole course Of the Republican
party in subduing the Rebellion was denounced
as unconstitutional. At NewYorll every step
of the same party toward restoring the Union
is denounced in the same terms. At Chicago
they declared that four years of failure TO
subdue the Rebellion by war proved that the
Democratic party ought TO be restored TO power.
At New-York they declared that three years
of failure to restore the Union proved the same
thing. When they so declared at Chicago the
Rebellion was four-ffths conquered. While
they so declared in New-York seven out of the
ten seeding States have already returned to the
Union. Seymour presided over the peace plat
form at Chicago and over tho revolutionary
platform at New-York. In the former he de-
cared that the war ought to cease; in the latter
that peace ought to cease He did his utmost
then to bring the war to an ignominious end.
He will do his utmost now to convert the
peace into mere truce, and TO plunge the
country into an iSnominious war He failed
then. lie will fail again.

A Funding bill has been agreed upon by the
Conference Committee, adopted by the Senate,
and will probably pass the House to-day Two
classes of bonds, one payable in 40 years at
per cent interest. the other in so years at A.
per cent interest, are to be issued. Both prin-
cipal and interest are to be paid in gold, and
the bonds are to be free from all taxes except
the income. The amount to be issued is to be
equal to the $685. and they are to be used
exclusively in taking up the latter No COM
missions are to be paid for negotiating the
hOnds.

We print in another column the remarks of
Mr. Garfield of Ohio in the House last We'd
nesday, proving that, when the Legal Tender
act was passed and the Fiyc-Twenty bonds
authorized nobody dreamed that the principal
of the latter was payable in anything but
coin, while Mr.. Thaddeus Stevens distinctly
and repeatedly asserted that ii 1caS so payable.
So did other leading members of the Commit
tee of Ways and Means.
We urge every one interested in our pending
contest to cut Mr.. Garfeld's expose out and
keep it where he can easily refer to it. There
is much honest ignorance current respecting
the payment of our National Debt, which needs
to be dIspelled by the exhibition of dOcu-
mentary truth. We shall have no diff
Guilty on this point, if the people are
duly enlightened. But every one who
gets the notion into his head that it would be
smart to print off Two Billions of miscalled
dollars, shake them in the faces of our public
creditors, bidding them "Take these or take
nOthngw is On the high road to voting the
COpperhead ticket. The Republican who has
determined to be q scOundrel is already half
way over to the Democratic camp, as Mr.. Ste-
vens recently illustrated. Even were the Re-
publicans knavish enough to run a race with
the Democrats in population, they would surely
be beaten I; for if we should propose to cheat
the bondholders out of half their honest due,
the Democrats would cut under and beat us by
proposing not to pay at all. Honesty and policy
unite, therefore, in requiring that we should
stand firm for the Public Faith.

NJ. Henri Rochefort, French critic Of some
note, recently wrote. in the course of a criii-
cism upon picture by GerOme of the exeea-
ton of Marshal Ney, that no one ever merilsd
death more than Ney, and that in going ea
to the standard of Napoleon after tlc Em-
peror's return from Elba he acted more inu
ambition than from patriotism. For tia
he was challenged by Gen. Ney, Prince Il
Moskowa, son Of the Marshal, TO which chx
lenge ROchefort replies that if a hstora
makes a misstatement of fact he may be held
personally responsible. But if he cannot, upon
facts conceded to be true, state his own opinion
of the moral character of the public conduct
of the Generals of 1916, without fighting all
their descendants, then eve must lock up his
"tOries and put the keys in our pockets" lie
therefore, though inclined to be accommodating
in the matter of dueing, refuses to fight the
Prince of Moskowa for fear of setting bad
example

BY the last abstract of the quarterly reports
of the National Banks of New-York City,
it will be seen that, on a capital stock of
S7l S00, 700, these banks have deposits amount
ing TO $2l7GGG, tS7, or about three times their
capital, and that out of these surplus de-
posts they have loaned $l77,271, ,4G3, or more
than twice the amount of their capital. These
loans and discounts, represented by notes
and checks are in effect an imitation of our
currency to the amount of upward of one
hundred millions of dollars, or a third as much
as the entire bank note currency issued under
the National Banking system for the whole
country. Aud whereas the bank note currency
issued under the National Banking system is
secured by deposits of Government bonds, and
bears definite ratio to the capital of the banks,
this initiation through deposits and loans" Is
secured by nothing whatever, and experience
proves that, at the first sign of panic, the banks
will contract this form of the currency with an
effect which works widespread disaster among
the business community. Would it not DO well
for our legislators, who are so solicitous to reg
ulate the safety and amount of our bank note
currency and to prevent its initiation, to bear III
mind that the imitation of the currency that is
wrought through the loans of the surplus de-
posits of our banks, is greater than the whole
volume of our bank note currency, is unse-
cured, and that its contraction brings most Sc
lious loss and suffering on the public2

PHOTOGRAPHY AND NATURALIZATION


To he Editor Of The 7rt5un>
SIR: Your suggestion of detective de-
scrpOn. 10 be inserted the body of the paper" Of
every person who becomes nauralized is very good
one but far better and certain method OF pre-
venting borrowing and repeater voting would be to
have photograph of the person naturazed attached to
the papers and fastened there by the official seal Of the
Judge or Commissioner There thousands of ex-
cellent practical photographers, who would supply all
the necessary materials and take the kenesses for less
than the salary without the steang9 of tho most insg-
nincant city official" The plan entirely practicable
and would be thoroughly effective Tor the prevention OF
frauds. Yours, &c, ID. c. s.
We believe the above suggestion of our cor
respondent would be thoroughly practicable,
and an absolute preventive against the double
use of naturalization papers The photograph
could be taken on the paper itself instead Of
being attached to it. And though our demo-
cratic "friends" in Pennsylvania could photo
graph their voters on their cOllee-steeped ere
dcntials, they could at least be compelled to
manufacture a separate paper for every vote
cast. We fancy a good many of the revolving
voters would object to that little affair of
having their pictures taken, and would let
politics severely alone. If so, the above would
be the best use to which photography has ever
been put
