Below We copy the financial article
Of the New York Mercantile Journal
becau use Of its correctness in general;
but in this instance because it COM
pletely dispels delusion that APP
pears to be universally entertained
by the people. 1t says: -g."9
Congress is beginning to consider
the financial affairs of the country,
and il present appearances indicate
that which is to result thercfrom, it
would he much better if the laws re-
lative thereto. were to remain un.
changed. We do not complain 80
much against the laws. as they now
stand. as against the violators Of The
laws. To us it seems exceedingly
strange that Mr.. Boutwell, is allowed
to disregard all law in the mansge-
ment of the national finances. The
law is very explicit and it seems to
us that "tho wayfaring man, though
fool, need not err therein. " In
this connection We cannot refrain from
quoting those portions Of the Legal
tender Act and National Bank Act
which condemn the purchase Of Gov
eminent 500 Bonds ut premium.
Section one Of the Legal-tender
Act, reads as follows
SECTION ! Be it enacted by the
Senate and House Of Representatives
Of tue United States OF America in
Congress assembled, That the Score
tary Of the Treasury is hereby au-
thorizcd to issue III addition to the
amounts heretofore authorized, on
tho credit Of the United States, one
bundled and City millions Of dollars
Of United States notes, hot bsarir:
interest. payable to bearer at the
treasury Of the United States. and Of
such denominations A. he may deem
expedient: Provided, that no note
shall he issued for the. fractional part
OF dollar, and not more than thirty
five millions shall be of lower demon
nations than Eve dollars; and such
notes shall be receivable in payment
of all loans made to the United
States. and Of all taxes. internal du-
ties. excises. debts. and demands Of
every kind due to the United States,
except duties on imports and iutercst
and Of all cluims and demands
against tho United States except for
interest upon bonds. notes, and GER.
ti6cates OF debt, or deposit. and thsll
also be lawful money and legal
tender in payment Of all debts. pub.
&c and.Pri0ate, within the Uuited
States. except duties on imports and
interest as aforesaid.
Section twenty-thrce. Of the Ma
tional Bank Act. Is very plain. and
light to the point. We quote:
And DO It further enacted. That
Ifter any such association shall have
caused its promise to pay such notes
n demand to DO signed by the presi-
lent or vice-president and cashier
hereof. in such manner as to make
lem obligatory ,promisAory notes,

The Rev. Samuel Clawson, a Me-
thodist preacher of eccentric manners
sometimes called the wild man,
was very popular in Western Virgin,
la, some twenty years ago. He was
cross-eyed and wiry made, and very
dark-skinned for a white man. AT
times he was surprisingly eloquent
always excitable, and occasionally
extravagant. He once accompanied
a brother minister, Rev. Mr.. R., a pro
minent pastor, to colored church
Mr.. R. gave the colored preacher the
hint, and Of course, Clawson was in.
vited to preach. He did so, and dur
ing the sermon, set the impulsiye
Africans to shouting all over the
house. This in turn, set Clawson tc
extravagant words and actions, and
he leaped out Of the pulpit like deer
and began to Shake the hands of the
colored brethren, and mix in quite
happily. He wept for JOY. Ther
pressing through the crowd, he found
brother R., and sitting down beside
him, he threw his arms around his
neck, and with tears streaming dowr
his cheeks, he said Brother R.,
almost wish l had been born niger
These folks have more religion thai
we have We'll, well, said brother
R., you came so near it that you
needn't cry about it.
