The Tribune and Virginia.

The New York Tribune has for q year
devoted its influence with great sincerity to
the cause of the restoration of Virginia. 1t
has never changed or faltered. Its. an
nouncement of the step taken in the House
of Representatives on Friday last is so
hearty aud joyous that we copy it below :
"The House of Representatives yester-
day adopted Mr.. Bingham's substitute for
the Reconstruction Committees Virginia
admission bill-Ycas, 9S; nays, 81. This
is vote in favor of liberality and trust
(ulness in dealing with great State; and
we trust it forecloses all effort, at least all
successful effort, to make the conditions Of
restoration harsh or degrading. Each side
has done it's utmost-thc vote is the fullest
taken in the House these eight years ; and
the Republicans who voted yea had to
brave the odium of voting with the Demo-
Gratis and against the greater number Of
their own party. May We not, therefore,
reasonably trust that Virginia will now be
allowed to come in on the conditions pre-
scribed by Congress last spring, and with
out further obstruction?
"P. S.-Thc BILL as amended on motion of
Mr.. Bingham, passed the House by the de-
csive majority of ninety-tour. Yeas, l43 !;
nays, 40. The Senate is expected to net on
Monday; and We refuse to doubt its dcci-
sion. All hail restored VIRGINIA.

Virginia Bonds.

On the 3lst of December Virginia regis
tered bonds we're quoted in Baltimore at
SAL. Yesterday they were quoted in the
same city at $50 "and stiff" Whether
this rapid rise in the price of our bonds is
due to the action of Congress or not, we
cannot say; but VIC presume that that
cause combined with others to produce the
effect in question. There is no good reason
why they should not 60 up still higher.
The people of Virginia have never 80 much
as thought of repudiating their bonds; and
would have provided regularly for the
payment Of the interest upon them If the
State had been in Il condition to justify
such action. We have had no Legislature
for years, and the tax upon property has
thus been allowed to stand at low point.
West Virginia is abundantly able to pay.
her proportion of the debt, and will, we
suppose. do it. She has, however, post
poned providing for its payment until the
Supreme Court of the United States shall
have decided whether Jefferson and Berkc-
ley counties properly belong to that State
or this-doubtless for the reason TINT her
proportion of the debt will be larger or
smaller, Ms this decision shall be for or
against her title to those counties. At any
rate, the debt will all be provided for.

GOVERNOR WALKER.-The terms on which
the admission of Virginia has been vir-
tually secured, and on which admission
may be consummated to-day, are due to
Governor Walker. These terms are liberal
past all reasonable expectation. We do not
think they are just or wise; we do not think
they are calculated to advance any cause or
interest in Virginia flor there is party
here who cannot bear success); but the
terms arc most liberal, and to Governor
Walker is chiefly due the character Of
them.
The means by which Governor Walker Sc
cured such terms are readily explained:
l. His close personal relations with Sena-
tors Nye and Stewart, of Nevada-two of
the abiest and most influential Republican
members of the Senate-gave him in that
body the voice, the vote, and the weight in
the Senate and the Republican party OF
those senators. Through these gentlemen,
and through many members of Congress
with whom the Governor and his family
were acquainted, the Governor exerted q
personal influence with the Republican
party in Congress greater than was pos
sessed by everybody else from Vrginia who
were in Washington. The unconditional
admission of Virginia has thus been Sc
cured by Republicans, and is Republican
measure.
2. Governor Walker utilized this personal
influence, which he possessed with leading

PoRTANT RECOMMENDATIONS Conven-
ton of prominent postmastcrs, convened at
the request of PostmasterGeneral Cres-
we'll. concluded their deliberations Friday.
With other matters, they decided upon
recommending the following important
changes .....E :.
LIST. That agents shall be established in
various parts of large cities, where letters
can be registered and delivered by regular
mail-carriers.
I'd. That special combination locks be
provided for through mail bags between
large cities, arranged so that they can only
he opened at the points of starting and des-
tination. ...r- .. F..
Sd. That fees for money-orders be re-
duced to five cents for any amount below
ten dollars.
4tll. That there be located in all large
post offices an agent of dcad-lettcr offices,
authorized to open and forward to writer's
all letters held for postage. All unsealed
circular letters and periodicals dropped IN
for delivery in limits of the post IN
which they are dropped to be paid at one
cent. =.
5th. That all newspapers when mailed
by the publishers in bulk Mt Office of mail
ing, if prepaid, shall be taken at large re-
ductIon of rates. 49,.
9th. That publishers shall be allowed to
transmit specimen copies Of papers and
magazines with posters and prospectuses
enclosed.
eth. They condemn the patent letter box
of Strong, and urge the use of plain iron
box, and do not believe that thefts are pos
sible in street boxes where police are en-
ployed.
Sth. They urge that additional induce
ments be held out to secure more general
use of stamped envelopes with name OF
writer upon them on account OF saving
trouble when. the person addressed Is not
found.
9th. That in view of the reduction of
fees on registered letters and reduction on
money orders, the Department takes every
means to bring them into general use. !.
10th. That the present uniform pay OF
letter-carricrs be rcadjusted SO as to make
three classes of officers first, where hun
dred thousand letters are delivered an
nually, carriers shall receive eight, nine,
and ten hundred dollars ; fifty thousand or
less than one hundred thousand, second
class, and carriers shall receive seven,
eight, and nine hundred dollars per annum /;
when less than fifty thousand letters are
delivered carriers shall receive six, seven,
and eight hundred dollars per annum.
Postmasters of the first class are allowed to
employ carriers of second and third class
grades.
18th. That there shall be no removal of
letter-carriers except for specific charges of
misbehavior, incompetency, or violation OF
post-office laws.
Authors manuscripts shall be allowed to
go through the mails rated the same as
book manuscripts.

stamps, and use of better article of gum
also, that new and better envelope be
adopted for registered letters. ......

Free Banking.

There are many advocates of that sort
of free banking which imposes no restraint
upon the aggregate amount of currency ;
but only makes secure that currency by
basing it, as now, upon Government bonds
placed in the custody of the Government.
The New York TriGune earnestly sustains
this proposition. We take it for granted
that all are agreed that to make the cur
rency in the highest degree creditable, and
to put check upon fraudulent issues, the
Government shall continue to print and
issue the notes. We are in favor of this
system. Every community ought to have
as much banking capital as it is prepared
to establish upon the basis of the Govern
ment securities. it may not have all it
wants in this way; but it cannot run into
excess, danger from which itself and the
public generally cannot be too securely pro-
tected.
1t is beyond question that no system pro-
posed before the war-or rather, none that
then existed-protected the nation from in
solvent bank issues. There have been many
millions lost by worthless bank paper, from
the failures of local banks of tolerable
responsibility to those denominated "wlld'
cat," &C., gotten up for swindling, and
whose projectors employed every conceiva-
bic art of deception and fraud with sue
cess the recollection of which is amazing.
The system established by the Government
during the late civil war gave us the key
to o safe and satisfactory currency. 1t was
devised to facilitate the financial operations
of the Government in carrying on the war.
That it accomplished with wonderful sue
cess. 1t promises great advantages In
peace; and whatever modification the bank
ing system may undergo, it will be unfor-
tunate for the country if the feature which
SO beautifully maintains the security and
universal good credit Of the paper currency
should be impaired. The Government debt
promises to last long enough and be large
enough to suffice as basis for the national
paper currency for that indefinite period.
When the debt is reduced below the amount
of the circulating paper medium, the gene
ration then living may take care OF the
matter!

The sudden appearance of 100000 men
in Paris upon the occasion Of the recent
outbreak induced by the crack-brained agi-
tators was a strong demonstration of force
that was not very encouraging to reTolu-
tionists. The troops came as if summoned
by stamp of the foot, and they withdrew
as suddenly when their presence had pro-
duced the desired effect. The same day
the Emperor permitted to return to France
thcmen who were convicted and transported
in 1864 for a conspiracy against his lie.
The New York Tribune says "Paris is
quiet" "and so is Vesuvius." We tear
the Tribune would like to see Paris IN
convulsion; we would rather see Vesuvius
in that condition.

Treason I'm New YDrk-Geuera1 Lee
Applauded VociferOusly.
New YORK, January Ill went the
other night to the Grand Opera-House with
some western friends, who wished to enter
tain themselves with the medley Qmay say
the very poor medley Of performances that
have lately been carried on there by Lin
gard and Paul. One of the items of the
varied programme of the evening was the
appearance on the stage Of number OF
characteristic figures representing the nota-
bic men of the day--such as Fisk. Greeley,
Grant, Lee, and perhaps half dozen others.
The figures walked to the foreground from
behind a curtain, appearing in succession,
one at time. Most of them excited but
feeble interest in the audience, and called
forth only little laughter. When the
figure of Grant appeared, however, clad in
military costume and smoking cigar, there
were some signs of waking up in the house,
and I should say that about one-fourth of
the audience applaudcd and another quar-
ter Missed, while fully one-half of the whole
body took no part with either side, but
maintained their ordinary stiffness.
Immediately after the counterfeit pre-
sentiment of General Grant had disap-
peared, the figure Of General Lee, grave,
stately, and white-headed, stood in the
foreground, and instantly the house rang
with long-continued applause that seemed
to come from the whole body OF spectators.
There were doubtless persons present who
did not join in the acclamations; but GER
tainly one would rarely see or hear more
vigorous demonstration in any theatre than
was made on this occasion upon the appear
ance of the southern rebel leader.
do not attempt to account for this incl
dent, or for such incidents, which are now,
and always have been, frequent enough in
New York, But was glad that General
Butler and Senator Sumner were not in the
audience, for they would doubtless have
fastened back to Washington and concocted
bill for putting New York under military
government.

We do not hesitate to say Just here that
the best population for us is that which may
flow from the North, tempted hither by the
advantages to which we have referred.
From mo quarter of the globe can we re

teal industry, and inventive genius. We
can hardly believe any calm and sensible
gentleman will deny this proposition. And
VIC will add we do not believe that our PEG
pie viii repulse coldly and inhospitably an
immigration from the North, come from
what State it may. The great body of those
who may come here will become Virginians.
Even those considerably passed the period
of adolescence will in ten years become
materially liberalized and acclimated. But
should they hold on to the day Of their
death to those principles and notions
| which we have considered rs con-
tracted and uncongenial, their children
will be unquestionably Virginians,
possessed of that enlarged, comprehensive,
| and tractable disposition which makes their
| sympathy unlimited and their philosophy
universal. The representatives of no part

steal energies and wealth as the northern
people, or if you choose, " Yankees y; and,
We repeat, We believe that our people are

Let us believe in the natural elements of
Virginia, which COP has so peculiarly
blessed. Let us believe that they have
made our people great, and that they will
continue to impress upon future generations
those pcculiarities we call Virginian. And
let us trust to them, and feel assured that
they will attract, with all reasonable expe-
dition, good people from abroad.

that they have overlooked very funny
blunder which she makes in referring to
work with which she certainly ought to be
familiar-namely, the Bible. Speaking of
the pseudo autobiography of Byron pub
lished in the John Bull Magazine in 1924.
she says that if some powerful cause had
not paralyzed all feelings of honor, deli
