New 9onK, Sept. 22.-The Tribune
thinks that large part of Sundays
alarm was wild and useless, and the ed
itor is especially grateful to President
Grant, tor not losing his head. He has
manfully refused to commit felony in
the interest of brokers Wild talk about
the right of Government to lend money
to brokers or bankers on collateral with
or without law, in order to relieve the
panic which was talked of by reckless
men, naddened by the result of their
own insane speculations. To hold that
the President has the right to violate
the law in the interest Of operators in
stocks, is as crazy theory as was ever
advanced by the widest Red in the
stormiest days of panics.
/ For resisting this madness, the people
owe Grant hearty thanks.
