THE NEW ,SYNDICITES.

The Secretary of the Treasury has decided
not to offer the contract for the negotiation
of tho remaining S3O0,0OO,OOO five per cent
loan in open market. Several propositions
have been considered by the Secretary; and
several different parties have sought the con-
tract, which has finally been awarded to what we
may consider two new Syndicates. The total
amount is divided equally between Jay Cooke
g. Co. and Morton. Bliss e. Co., with Drexel,
Morgan g. Co. The first mentioned firm rep
resent the eminent banking houses Of NM.
Rothschild g. Sons, Jay Cooke, McCullOch 81
Co., and their own; the second cOmbna-
ton represent Barring Bros g. Co., j. S.
Morgan e. Co., Morton, Rose 81 Co., and
their own firm. The terms arc understood to
DO the same as those on which the old
Syndicate negotiated the former loan, with q
slight difference in favor of the Govern
ment. We are as yet without any other
details than these.
Since it has been determined to dispose of
this great contract to private applicants, we
are glad that the negotiation has fallen into
the hands of such safe and trustworthy
men. The eminent house of Barring Bros.
has long been identified with the satisfac-
tory and honorable negotiation of American
securities; the firm have peculiar claim to
American confidence aud consideration.
Another of these banking firms
has also earned the good will
and esteem of our people. Our
fellow-citzens, despite the proverbial ingrati-
tude of republics, will long remember the SER
vices which were rendered to the strained
finances of the nation, during the Rebellion,
by Jay Cooke g. Co. and if the Syndicate
was to be recreated at all, we are glad to sec
Jay Cooke at the head OF it again.
But there has been no removal of the origl-
nal objections to the contract made with the
old Syndicate. The terms paid for the negO-
tiation Of the loan have always seemed ex-
travagant. There was no warrant for the
temporary increase of the Public Debt
The negotiation of Government securities, in
huge blocks, by business firms which have so
many other interests in the money market
does not seem good thing for tho Govern
ment nor for the people. 1t strengthens
the hands of the agents in oppressive combi-
nations it does not pOpularize the loan by dis
tributing it among numerous small holders.
But, notwithstanding these objections there
will be feeling of relief throughout the
country, now that this great transaction,
SO long pending, has been finally
consummated We do not think well Of the
old Syndicate operations and we deplore the
defiance of the public judgment involved in
their renewal. But We earnestly hope that
future events may amply justify the Secretary
in the course he has chosen to pursue.

OF RESPECT EOR LILY.

We hope some Of these days that the wis
dom and the Christianity of the age will
devise some better means of Furnishing murder
than strangling the murderer. 1t is very evil
dent that this me-honored custom does not
now. and never did, effect its purpose so COM
pletely as might be wished Even where the
execution Of the law is reasonably sure
and just, it has not been found to
eradicate the murderous passions of men
from their hearts nor to restrain them
entirely from the manifestation of them.
But we are dealing at this moment with
another question, about which there can be
no shadow of doubt. Men may differ as to
the propriety or expediency of capital punish
ment. But good citizens cannot differ in re-
latiOn to the execution of the law. The pro-
priety of repeating or changing law to
which we object is always an admissible sub
ject of discussion in the press and in the
legislature. But neither juries, nor judges,
nor newspapers have the right to say
that because law might be better, therefore
it shall not be obeyed. we believe that the
sluggish and uncertain execution of criminal
Justice in this city has exercised, and still does
exercise, an unhealthy influence upon the pub
lie mind. We should be glad to see tho ex-
pertinent of some more humane and philo-
sophical dealing with murderers. But the law
as it stands demands that every man guilty of
murder shall be hanged by the neck until he
is dead. While that law remains, it ought to
be carried into effect Every time a murderer
cheats the gallows, either by the skill of his
lawyers, the caprice or venality of judges,
an tba svmnatbiea Of the Executive ia n
direct incentive to contempt Of law. 1t is
from contempt of law that all crimes, and
especially crimes against the person, proceed.
If the law was as inflexible and as certain in
its operations as it should be, it would exer.
else a much more salutary influence upon that
class which is not reached by any considera-
tions of morality or religion.
The frequency of murder in the streets of
New-York is fact requiring the most serious
thought and action. 1t will never answer to
say that hanging will not cure it. We sim
cerely believe that it will not, and we ardently
hope that something better in the way of
warning and punishment may be devised.
But in the meanwhile nothing is 80 bad az
neglect of the law, practical ignoring of the
measures designated by tho statutes as
remedy for the evil. The law must be
executed, with certainty and promptness.
There should be no room for scut,-
ment, for caprice or chicanery to milliiy
its action. The solemnity of tIial by jury
should not be destroyed by the present pro-
cess of the exclusion Of intelligence from the
box. Appeals should not be ~ easily granted.

"should amount to anything he would not
Gown the Credit Mobilier stock,-that he could
"call it mine or his, as he pleased" That
similar arrangement was at least suggested in
the case of Mr.. COlfax one is led to suspect
from question put by the Vice-President
himself:
"Did you not prefer me some small sum OF money,
and say to me- take IT, and consider it bought backf
A. do not remember"
In reply to question about the stock diyi-
dends, Mr.. Ames says:
have not given anybody any stock since July ls5S
except Mr.. Patterson. Mr. Bingham. and Mt Painter
held the rest waiting for the result Of this suit III
is due and will be accounted for but have kept II IN
my possession until know how this suit results"
This seems to explain the whole mystery.
AS soon as the Credit Mobiier got into the
Courts, and there became danger not only OF
pecuniary loss but of just that dreaded ex-
posure which has since taken place, the hold
ers of these Congress shares ran to Mr.. Ames,
and made fictitious sales, $50 that they could
"call the stock his or theirs, as they pleased"
He keeps it for them still, with all the accu-
INFLATED dividends; and he will keep it until
they can safely claim their own.

promptly considered, the wrong righted, or
the sentence executed. The execution should
not be postponed so long that it shall appear
to be rather result of the trial than OF the
crime.
Several criminals have lately been sentenced
TO death, but even while the public Is occu-
pied with this intelligence follows another
batch OF wantOn and ferociOus murders IL
is idle to attempt to connect the two classes
of events. The habit of carrying deadly
weapons. and of using them without proyoca-
ton, has nothing TO do with the verdlcts III
the Stokes and Foster cases. 1t springs from
tho Iawlcssness and rowdyism of the past
when the name Of law and government was
mockery 1t is an incident of the fallen Empire
of Tweed and his cOnSorts, OF Barnard ana Ills
ministers. The contempt of law, which found
its hi CHEST exercise in the forging OF vouchers
in the City Hall, and the stuflinS OF DaiioV-
boxes in every downtown district, doomed
out into vulgar theft and murder among the
imitators Of these powerful malefactors. III
we reform our legislation and our administra-
lion. we shall do much towards checking the
spreod of crime. If we wish ignorant and
violent men to obey the laws, the example
administer them
1t is on this ground, and this only that we
demand the rigid enforcement of the penalties
laid down for every violated law. we nave
no respect for the gallOws; but while 1t STANDS
il should be a serious fact and not a deriSlVe
scarccrow. We doubt the expedicncy OF hang-
ing for murder; but we are sure that trlfling
with the law is something far worse. The es-
sential need of tho hour is prompt and GER
tain punishment for crime. IL all lawless
men could be made sure OF that there would
be much less shooting. If Edward Stokes had
known he would be hanged il he shot
Fisk, he would have preferred to run the
risk of Fisk's shooting him. If Magruder had
been sure OF the gallowS or long imprison-
ment he would not have pistoled his
fellow boarder so coolly. If Foster had been
sure of tho consequences, he would have
deprived himself of the qualification he de-
rived from smashing Mr.. Putnam's skull. The
last and most atrOciOus murder OF all, thaC OIL
q harmless and industrious father OF famliy
in Chatham square tho other day, was
glaring instance Of this brutal and selfish law
lessness. The murderer Nixon shot this
moor man because ho did not get out his way
quickly enough, and then said, with the lying
promptne, of his class, that "he was not
" going to stand like fool and let him strike
" first" 1t must be clearly established that
wild beasts like this must not be permitted to
infest society. They must be taught that II
they follow out their brutal instincts to the
point of murder, there will be no luck no
skill, no money, and no sympathy as strong IN
their favor as the law is against them.
