B..
TT will be remembeIe ed that about year
ago, negotiations were pending between
the United States and Germany for the con-
clusion of a treaty for the protection of
German emigrants. 1t is now officially
announced by the German papers that the
negotiations have produced no result, and
are at an end, mainly because an agree
ment about the jurisdiction and compe-
tency of the course Of the two countries
could not be arrived at. The Deutsche
Nacchrihtung, however, says there is
no reason to regret this, as the
energetic measures taken by the
German government render formal
treaty unnecessary, the appointment of a
special Imperial Emigration commissioner,
and the almost exclusive dispatch of
emigrants by large steamers, having
added much to their safety and comfort.
AT the same time, the absence of any
special treaty between The two countries
will undoubtedly be satisfactory to the
Prussian government, rs it will thereby
be better enabled to carry out its schemes
for stemming the immense tide of emf
grafton which is setting from that country
towards our shores.

A GOLD CORNER.

The most formidable clique that has ever
operated in Wall street is now threatening,
by bulling the price of gold, to seriously
disturb the entire business of the country.
1t processes to have apprehensions of moth
ing but counter combination of merchants
that may confuse its calculation of profits.
Gold is quoted stiff and in steady mercan-
tile demand. 1t is upon the basis of this
demand, of the known weakness Of the
treasury, and of the impotence Of a long
restrained speculative spirit.that the manlp-
ulators of this movement proceed. The
design is to create a pressure just when
money is most needed in business trans
actions, and make legitimate trade a
matter of but secondary Importance.
There is much eycite ment in mer-
camille circles over the prospect, and the
uncomfortable associations of war times
are revived in financial places in New
York. 1t is apprehended that not even
with the government to fight the clique
will it be possible to subdue its plan. The
business season being about TO open, it is
of all things desirable that the rates OF
money should continue easy, that the
country may have the first advantage.
But fluctuations in the gold market are
certain to precipitate doubt and distress
everywhere. All branches Of trade and
business will inevitably be affected. 1t is
the acknowledged strength Of the combi-
nation that provokes general solicitude, its
temptations not being subject to its original
designs. There is an enormous amount of
gold locked up at the present time by the
Clique, with the evident design of creating
an unprecedented pressure.
We call attention to this new conspiracy,
not because it is anything especially out
rageous under the present system of
finance. It is the natural out-growth
of it rather. and no one who supports the
present system has any business to find
fault with it. Tde the sales of gold on a
sliding scale, and give the people a cur
rency which they can control. That IS
the remedy for gold corners, and all other
diseases of the currency. The financial
quackery which now attempts to cure these
symptoms while the root of the disease
remains untouched, is amazingly stupid.
1t is the offspring of ignorance and cow
ardice. 1t knows nothing of finance, and
it is afraid of the money Rings Look
out for squalls while this bad genius
inlests the country and controls its
finances.
