THE CHICAGO MONEY MARKET.


According to the following remarks of yesterdays
Chicago tribune we may look for an interruption
and temporary cessation Of the dow Of money from
New York to that city,
The event 1.-THE elimination Of che wheat "cor-
nerD was not without its effect In financial circles.
1t weakened Eastern exchange by causing the
banks here to desire to make their home balances
as strong as possible, and this led 10 efforts to re-
duce their balances In New York. Hence large
quantities Of exchange were offered, and
some that was not sold. few sales were reported
between banks at Soc a 81 per 81 900 discount.
Over the counter sales were made at par, and pur
chases at u OF per cent discount The movement
OF currency to the country received check to-day.
A considerable proportion OF the money ordered IN
that direction was for the purpose OF forwarding
grain here during the present month to take
advantage OF the high prices ruling till yes
terday. But the extensive drop In wheat and the
minor declines In corn and oats caused several OF
these orders to be cancelled. Grain will arrive
here feely for two or three days to Gomez but that
grain has been already forwarded from first hands,
and is now on the way hther. The effect OF the
collapse viii probably be to cause the movement of
currency to the country to be much lighter than
heretofore for some time to come.

IT is probable that the recent bank rob-
berry in Baltimore will bring before the
courts there the question of the liability of
national beuks for special deposits. Nearly
five years ago the then comptroller of the
currency stated in letter to the cashier OF
the First National Bank Of Baltimore, that
sit is direct transgresson of the provis-
ions of the national currency act for ma
tional bank to assume the custody and safe
keeping of miscellaneous valuables. 1t is
dangerous to the bank, and in the nature
of fraud upon the stockholders. If the
valuables are lost through the carelessncss
or dishonesty of bank officer or clerk, the
officers are undoubtedly liable; and if the
practice has been sanctioned by the board
of directors, they will be held liable; and
as they are agents of the stockholders, the
stockholders, would in the end, be required
to make good the resulting loss" Notwith
standing this ruling, national banks have
continued to receive parcels from depositcrs
without charge. A judicial decision con-
firming the comptroller's opinion would
put an end to the practice.

New England the busy hive Of industry il
is, and that have given to all the Northern
states their supremacy-commcrcial, man
ufacturing and industrial--over the South.
A protective policy, as applied to the indus
trial interests Of our State, is the true cure
for the disease that has eaten into our
vitals, and made ignorance, vice, pauperism
and crime almost universal among us, while
the evidences of unthrift which free trade
would everywhere invite as a legitimate
result Of Democratic teachings, are equally
abundant OH every hand. ri
We are told by English emissaries in this
country that the free trade principles are
everywhere extending their benign sway"
and contain within them cure for all
the evils of which we complain. But
if this be true, why did England find it
necessary, in making her Manchesters,
Birminghams and Sheflields the operatives
paradise, to impose protective duties upon
her people for more than two hundred
years in order to govern competition and
secure to herself the control Of the markets
of the world And why do Prussia, Aus
tria, Belgium, Switzerland, and other man
ufacturing governments in Europe, still shut
their ports and markets against the blessings
of British free trade? The fact is, the doc
trines of free trade are not extending with
the rapidity alleged. On the contrary,
fa Ind cttU n
be the governing rule in all countries whose
internal polity looks to national prosperity,
grandeur, and power. The Emperor Napo-
leon fearfully weakened the strength and
stability of his empire by encouraging free
trade policy during the last few years Of
his reign.
With all the splendid resources Of our
State, the like of which may not be found
in any other section of county, hundreds
and thousands of our people are idle, be-
cause there are not adequate and profitable
industries at their command. Quicken
these by protection, and the life and activity
which they will suddenly develop, will give
us hive of incompatible industry where
all is unthrif and idleness now. With the
certainty that protection will impart all this,
what do the Conservative candidates fol-
Congress in this State propose to do in the
premises ? How does the Hon. George d.
Wise stand? Is he, like the rest of the
proposed delegation in Congress, fully COM
mitted to the doctrine of free trade? w
know how the Hon. j. Amber Smith
stands, and what his influence will be
if he is elected to q seat in Congress. Ill
is not only an earnest advocate of protec
ton, but he belongs to the party whicl
makes it a cardinal principle in their politi
cal faith-which alone commands the infiu
ence and power to make the principle ope
rative in Virginia to-day. A vote for y
Amber Smith will be vote for protectio
to Virginia--a vote for all the splendid re
suits which will come to our State from tn
system Of fostering its industries while
vote for his opponent will be one to taste
the old system of exhaustion, decay, an
death upon the agricultural and industrl'
, resources of the State.

The Dispatch was engaged this morn
ing in extracting little cold comfort"
from the Vermont aud Maine elections, but
it came hard, like pulling eye-teeth. The
Wing did not pull very hard on the !" com
fort " string, but fell back on philosophy
and rejoiced that the operation was over ;
while the Enquirer in despair of wooing
any part of New England to tho embraces
of Liberalism" bade farewell to that
benighted region, with the earnest hope, no
doubt, that it would never give birth to
any more such Democratic candidates as
Horace Greeley.

The reading of speeches has been de-
clared contrary to the rules Of the House
of Commons in England, and ambitious
orators whose productions "smell of the
lamp" have to lealn their speeches by
heart now, if they want the House to hear
them. This is as it should be. Long
speeches on any subject, no matter how
important, are bore in deliberative
assembly, and written speeches are apt to
be too long. 1t would be great blessing
to tho country if our members of Congress
would devote their Saturdays to business
instead of reading long-winded essays be-
fore the committee of the Whole on the
state of Union, which go into the Globe,
and are only made for home consump.

our suggestions as to the " sweet, luscious,

the tinted woods f" which oughtto be upon
us about these days. The fact is, our para

premature but, then, we did not expect

more influence to bear in behalf of the

of this district than probably would fall to
the ability of any other family connection

THE movement to place O'Conor and
Adams electoral tickets in the field is
alarming to the Greeleyites, who would
have it understood that the Louisville Con-
vention was "a sham" The wish is father
to the thought. The Straightouts will be
organized in majority ifnot all the States.
They are starting papers in many places,
and it is not 80 certain that O'Conor will
not compete successfully for a majority of
the Democratic vote.
