BY Stree banking" is understood
that change IN the national banking
law, which will enable as many persons
to engage in the business as can fur
nish the required securities. Under
the present law, the volume of currency
is restricted, and the maximum amount
which can be circulated has never been
afoat. Those advocating the ''free
banking system" maintain that tho
present volume of currency is insefh-
cient to do the business of the country.
While the country might have got
along very well from 1862 or 1867 or
'68, the rapid increase of population,
at least 100000, together with n.
more than corresponding increase OF
business, leaves the country "close" in
all active business seasons. for currency.
Nor is this ALL They further main
tain that the adoption of this system
will give us specie resumption, and that
it is the only manner in which it IS
likely to occur, for the reason that COM
merce will be afraid of a greater strin-
gency, and the whole force Of the Ma
tional Banks is opposed to any resump-
ton Again, with the free banks these
annual panics and disasters to the busi-
ness interests cannot possibly take place,
and should large failure or two occur,
its results can be only local, compare
lively, for then the currency of the
country will be so widely diversified.
This matter should receive the care
full attention of the business men Of the
country, so that at the next session Of
Congress, their members may know
their wishes in relation thereto. --Eau

''She passeth hence, "a friend from liv-

A mother from her children. Time hath
shed
Its frost upon her. and the tree Of life
Glowed not in freshness gifts summer prime
And yet she passeth hence. Her work on
earth
Was done, and we'll. Hers was the active
mind
The untiring hand in duty. Firm Of soul
And pure in purpose, on the Eternal Rock
OF Christian Faith, her energies reposed,
Aud sought no tribute from a shadowy
world.
Her early hope and homage claye to God,
When the bright skies, the untroubled
founts of youth,
With all their song-birds, all their flowers
rose up
To tempt her spirit. SO, in hours Of pain
God did remember her, and on her brow
And in her heart, the doye-like messenger
Found peaceful home"
Farewell! 1t is a glorious flight for faith
To trace thy upward path above this cline
OF change aud storm. We will remember
thee"

AN ancient legend tells us that one
ST. Plat was beheaded; and that, after
he was bcheaded, he took up his own
head in his hand and walked two
leagues. We never believed the story,
nor do we think our readers do; Tut If
we could have seen him pick up the
head, and take the first step, we shonld
never have questioned his ability to
walk the six miles.
In regard to the many mysterious
things reported to have been done at
Mr.. Lynch's, many people say substan-
TALLY the same thing. If they could
only see one demonstration, they would
telieye the rest possible.
We insist that all should be cautious
about accepting theories, or statements
about unreasonable facts, without inves
tigation. Nor should we be hasty in
our conclusions, since it is often DIFF
ficult to up-root erroneous opinions
hastily conceived. Prejudice, bigotry
or superstition, not unfrequently put
reason at defiance. On the other hand +,
credulity is quite as great al evil. The
rule is, that in stunning Scyllas we
should also be careful to avoid Cha
rybdis.
In our opinion the manifestations to
which we refer will mark an important
era in science or religion, or both. Ii
the devil is let loose there, it only re.
mains for certain theolgoians to demon
strate the fact, and their theory will
be established. And, if science un-
folds this mystery, as we have no doubt
it will, the world will be far wiser than
ever before.
So far we have related no isolated
fact within our own knowledge. 1t
would be useless to 90 so, since the
statements ofwhat others have seen have
flown before us almost the wide world
over. When the reader shall have seen
the headless body of st. Plat walking
with his head in his hand, then he will
be prepared to believe that this Sain
can pursue his journey. So when he
has seen any object move through spac,
unaided by human hands, or any aE
lparant cause, he will be prepared {
believe that other bodies may be move,
Il by the same invisible force. Ocula
demonstration is the more satisfactory
evidence, though cumulative testimon,
may finally serve to convince. The
combined evidence of many witnesse
will sometimes convince the most skep
teal.

The True Republican says, 1--WE do
not concur with the River Falls Jour
nal in the opinion that the lands sold
by the West Wisconsin Railway Com
pany will never be redeemed"
But let US suppose they may be re-
deemed, what then? Does that justify
the Company in practicing such de-
ception? Would these purchasers have
invested their money, had they known
the fact? By no means. Men are not
fond of procrastination, uncertainty,
the prospect of litigation, botheration,
trepidation, and almost endless delays.
Hundreds of these men will doubtless
be IN their graves long before this mat
ter is closed up, and their estates will be
involved in perplexity, doubt and loss
in consequence of this swipdle.
But the darkest feature in this trans
action is the fact that the money paid
by the purchasers il not applied to
raise the incumbrance on the lands they
have purchased. If this had been
done, and release procured in cases
where the full amount Of the purchase
money had been paid, there would
have been some more show of honest
intentions on the part of the Company.
We certainly hope the Company will
not only be able, but that 1T will yet
manifest a disposition to pay that mort.
gage, and thus save these purchasers
harmless. And we trust that some
encouragement will be given to that
end at no distant day. This is great
wrong, an unmitigated swindle, and we
have no word of apology to make for
the Company.
While the True Republican may Of
fer word of hope TO this outraged
class Of purchasers, we trust it will
never enter upon the list of its apol-
ogists. 1t is poor consolation to men
to know that they must live in suspense
for ten years, or for an lindefnite period
beyond. There is nothing to encourage
these men. They know not whether
they are making Improvements to be en-.
joyed by themselves and their families,
or whether they are adding wealth TO
the already overaowing treasures OF
foreign capitalists. Many Of them are
ready today to sacrifice one-half they
have invested and get out Of these sham
bles. Though their flesh may not have
been literally cut to pieces aud sold BY
these land pirates, their bones and sin
ews, their strength, the labor Of their
hands, their fortunes have been wanton.
ly battered in the market place.
