Mr.. SHERMAN Qtop., Ohio said that tho bill pre-
sented two main propositions; l. The partial cquali
zition OF distribution OF the banking currency
among the States, and 2. Free banking on 4 coin
basis. The present distribution Of bank crcu-
lation, he bald, grossly aud palpably unfair.
Three States, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and
Connecticut, Containing In population less than
fifteenth OF our population have thus onethrd OF all
the bank circulation. The rapidly growing Western
States, where credit Is most needed, have scarcely
90 70 an inhabtant while all the late rebel States
are practically without any ban king circulation.
MIR. Sherm0n said that In no event during suspen-
sion OF specie payments would be favor proposition
ing the circulation in some other form TO avoid
expansion of the currency. Two measures had been
proposed first, the Withdrawal Of the greenbacks
but this plan would not receive the sanction OF the
House. The other plan was the one adopted By the
Senate Committee-the withdrawal OF tho per
cent certificates now held by the banks as part OF
their reserves IN place Of legal tender notes.

WHY THE WAR DID NOT BEGIN
IN 1885,

The RheiniSche Zeituag gives mar
ration, showing that shortly after the bat
tie of Sadowa, when Louis Napoleon's
demand for q rectifcation of the Rheinish
frontier had just been rejected, and the
Luxembourg question was up, a council
of the French Ministers resolved on war,
and separated with that understanding;
but that when next morning Marshal
Neil had an audience with the Emperor,
he perceived a change of manner, and at
length, when Neil himself brought up the
subject, the Emperor said, cit is impos-
sible We are not sufficiently prepared,
we have neither men nor means enough
for the present" The narrative goes on
to say:
On hearing this quiet reversal of a resO-
luton to which he himself, together with
Neil, had mainly contributed, the minister
could not repress his establishment, and
reminded Louis Napoleon of the discus
sions which had taken place on all these
objections, and how, in the end, they had
been overruled SIT is impossiblel" the
Emperor once more quietly repeated, and
the minister had to make his bow. Great
was the revulsion of feeling and uproar
which followed in the circle of the initia-
ted ''The Emperor is very Il" some
said sneeringly. Others broke out into
the exclamation: ''That man dishOnOrs
usl" But there was no appeal from Caesar
sobered down; the war party had for the
once to subside. The minister who, from
Chauvinist indignation at the nonfulfll-
ment of the resolution above alluded to,
had exclaimed: sect homme nous des-
hOnorei" is M. Drouyn de L'huys.
