SYSTEM3TIC RELJEF.

Our neighbOrs in Philadelphia began on
Tuesday last to organize permanent Relief
Associations for the Winter, similar to those
adopted in 1857 to which we adverted the
other day. We ought never to be ashamed
to borrow good idea, and this ia thoroughly
practical and efficient. Az soon az the cold
weather sets in, the need for relief will be
urgent among unemployed workmen, while
the largo class whose trade il beggary will az
usual thrust themselves foremost and receive the
largest relief. No matter what the stringency
of the times, the sum bestowed in charity in
New-YOrk during the next three months will
be enormous, and common prudence dictates
that some system be adopted at once by which
tho relief may reach with certainty the needy
objects. The Quaker plan Of Philadelphia is
briefly az follows: Each ward forms Branch
Relief Association under control Of an official
board the precincts of the ward are divided
int "blocks," for each of which is appointed
by the bOard,a committee of two gentlemen
of established character to solicit donations of
money, goods. cast-off clothing, bedding. ETC.;
and two ladies, whose business it is to visit
every house and examine strictly into cases
requiring relief. All donations are sent to
central room or hall, and receipts given to the
contributors. No order for relief is honored
unless signed by one of the visiting commit
toe. "All transactions of the association, 80
"far as they relate to delivery of relief, must
abe regarded as strictly confidential" While
snch system would not and}ought not to do
away with individual charity, it would be pru-
dent and eff cient where tho latter "a too
often impulsive and temporary. An i'm
.provcment could be effected in this plan by
adopting q svstem in use in several cburches,

not necessarily enter. Our business is to sus
tain the immunity Of our flag upon the high
seas, and not to assist Spain or Cuba in their
municipal struggle. 1t is for this reason
that we especially deprecate the appeals
addressed to Gen. Grant to take charge OF
this matter himself. The President is prob
ably one Of the worst men in the Government
to be intrusted with matter so delicate anu
so momentous. Neither by education, by tenn
permanent, nor by habit of mind is he fitted 10
decide, in an affair involving such tremendous
consequences, upon points of law or consider,
atoms of expediency. We have often had
occasion to differ from the Secretary OF STATE,
but his position opposing the recognition OF
the Cuban Republic is the only one consistent
with international law and the best interests
of tho United States. 1t would not IN the
least assist the cause Of Cuban independence
and would lead to useless and injurious com
plications. 1t could only become advisable
when we resolve TO begin active hostiiitleS
against Spain or to annex the island. We
take it that majority of the people OF 'he
United States would not at present approve
either of these enterprises.

will be found very instructive:

In 1857, owing to the Hardness and weak
ness of the Bank, general panic was pro-
duced, and the act of 1874 was suspended. In
1873 after seven weeks of pressure and after
raising the discount rate to nine per
cent, the Bank is not only strong, but
growing in strength and there is almost a
total absence of the feeling which generates
panics. The business classes Of England are
getting more than ever convinced mat 1t
pays. even at the expense of considerable
temporary inconvenience, to maintain
the money of England at an equality
with the value of gold throughout the
commercial world. UnfavOrable exchanges
and heavy expectations of specie are re-
garded as sufficient evidence that gold is worth
moro elsewhere than it is in Great Britain.
The Act of 1914 causes the note circulation
of the Bank to contract equally with
the stock of gold against which
bank notes are issued. The Bank, in self
defense, turns the drain for export from its
own reserve to the money in active use
among the people, 1t effects this by adj
vancing the price at which it will
lend Hence the money in circulation is
affected precisely as it would be if there were
no bank notes in existence. and only gold
and silver circulated. For twenty mine years
no English bank has had the power to gener-
ate false security by issuing notes which cir
cumstances might easily render it impossible
to redeem. No such dilutiOn of the currency
is permitted, even TO the Bank of England.
And it is because Of the inheXibility with
which England maintains the value of her
money that the international exchange bust
ness of the whole world has been attracted to
London. 1t is not the fashion there to cheat
creditors by diminishing the value of the
legal tender, which necessarily involves
either a perpetual reign of inconVertible paper
of fuctuating value, or great losses to the pro-
ducing classes while the deprecated money is
brought back to the gold standard. Imitation
necessarily involves one Of these three evils
contraction, reputation, or perpetual nom
ful6llment of the promise to pay. 1t begins
with injustice to the creditor classes; as long
as it continues all business is LOTTERY, and
it can only end in injustice to debtors and
producers. Indeed, it rarely happens that
the nation which has once entered on
the fatal path is 80 fortunate as to escape
complete bankruptcy.

SoUND RANKING IN LONDON

T. NAV now be considered quite certain
that 10 difficulties worse than those al
ready successfully encountered threaten the
stability of commercial credit in En-
gland. Nothing bat some tremendous
and unexpected calamity can now prevent, as
il seems to us, the machinery of British trade
and manufactures from operating as usual.
The volume of trade will probably for some
time be diminishing, but there will be no
convulson such as temporarily afiiicts the
United States.
We base these hopeful anticpations on the
last weekly return of the Bank of England,
of which the particulars have been received
in a private dispatch TO the Editor of The
TRIBUNE. The gain in the reserve of notes
and coin in the banking department has
been 81 100000 and the proportion Of reserve
to liabilities is more than thirty -four per cent.
During the week the private deposits have in
creased $S,O5OOOO; the public deposits, $62O,OOO,
and the loans on private securities SIOOO,OOO.
The demand for discount yesterday was only
moderate The Bank gained nearly half
million dollars in bullion, and the exchanges
appear everywhere to have turned IN favor OF
England. The following table of the changes
in the Bank of Englsnd's reserve in 1851 and
1878 will be found very instructive:

Fascinating indeed must journalism seem TO the
youth of America. for if may credit the sugges-
tions of The Amateur Journalists Companion the
first thing the small boys of this country do when they
find they have some brains is to shoot mady from
their spheres into the editing and publication of
some amateur book paper. We are gravely told
that there are one hundred and fiftyeight amateur
journals published and sold in this country besides
about thirty amateur books and there are over
three hundred " Amateurs Of America" mostly boys
of every age from ID to 10. Then there youthful
amateur press associations-fifteen of them-haying
conventions and banquets and speeches. after the
fashion of the elderly fraternities. In short, they
seem to be striving to attain the nights pictured by
the editor and publisher of the said Companion,
aged "A, who says Let US all hope for future in
amateur journalism, brilliant and splcndrous beyond
comparison" We may, perhaps be permitted TO
doubt whether this sort of work, however well DONE
gives the best mental discipline. the most thorough
and solid training to these bright young boys.
