Judge nond,s Decision.

We lay before our readers this morning
the text of tho decision rendered at Mar
tlnsburg by the Hon. Il. L. BOND, Judge
of The United States Circuit Court for this
Circuit, on the operation OF the enforce
ment net upon the registration and cIec-
tion laws Of this State. The document
itself is SO clear and explicit that 1t needs
no comment, and, inasmuch as It aflirms
precisely the position the INTELLIGENCER
took on this question from the first, any
elaboration Of it would be but u repcti-
ton Of what we have already repeatedly
said. The decision is, in general terms,
that the act of Congress is designed
simply to enforce the fifteenth amend
ment; that it leaves the regulation OF
suffrage wholly to State laws, except so
far as they may attempt 10 discriminate
on account Of race or color; and this dis
elimination constitutes the only offence
against the act Of Congress on the part Of
State officers Of registration and election
for which they are answcrablc in the
United States Courts. For all else they
are to answer TO the State tribunals.
So far as we are aware, there has not
been a single violation of the enforcement
act in the State, under the decision rem
dered by Judge BOND.

We have only space for brief comment
on the mornings news. From the con
tlicting reports Of varying success and
defeat in the tremendous struggles Of the
three days fighting reported, 1t appears
that the Prussians won great advantages
Tuesday and Thursday. The London
dispatch dated yesterday $50 +. NJ, fur
nishcs the only explicit statement o.
the battle Thursday, which LEFT the
French retreating on Mezieres. 1t is Ger
tain that the fighting has been terrific and
the carnage fearful on both sides, and 1t is
probable the Prussians suffered some re-
verses Wednesday.
Though the struggle does not seem to
be concluded, the latest intelligence leaves
the advantage with the Prussians.

The Sinking Fund and Reduction OF
the Debt.

Elsewhere we print letter from the
Assistant Secretary Of the Treasury, in
answer to one addressed him by the
editor of this paper, touching the dcs:ruc'
ton Of the bonds purchased by the Treas
ury with the surplus. 1t states explicitly
that all the bonds purchased, both fol
sinking fund and special fund have been
destroyed, with the coupons, and tho in
terest on them stopped; the whole
amount destroyed up to the 1st inst. being
in excess of $137,00O,0OO, and the annual
interest thereby saved rexceeding eight
millions. 1t also states exactly whatpro'
vision for sinking fund for the gradual cx'
tinctlon Of the debt was made by the recent
actof Congress. It's that one per cent ol
the debt outstanding be set aside once a
year and that to this he added a sum
equal to the annual interest on that por'
ton of tho debt paid. This provision fol
the gradual payment OF the debt Is at once
honest and wise. A fund constituted in
this way, while but light annual burden
to the country, will extinguish the debt
quite rapidly even If no extra purchases
with a surplus arc made, as perhaps few can
bcwhen thegreatteduction in the revenues
recently made takes effect. But it will be
q pledge Of good faith that will soon
make the credit Of the United States tho
best in the world-so good that VIC can
borrow all the money we want at 4 or 8
per cent and take up our 0 per cent debt
with the proceeds.
We call attention to the letter because
the facts in regard to the recent action ol
Congress on this subject have become a
matter Of dispute between candidates in
some parts Of the State, and Of course the
Secretarys statement Is conclusive, ,.,
