The CENTRAL PACIFIC RING.-The New
York Sun of Saturday, gives an account declar-
ed to be derived from authentic sources, of the
operations of the Central Pacific ring, from
which it appears that the Credit Mobilier has
been outdone. The revelation is astounding,
and if the charges made by the supervisors of
Placer County can be sustained, it is evident
that the gentlemen of the Credit Mobilier were
novices compared with the contract and finance
committee of the Central Pacific concern. The
statement published in detail, sho VS. that $211,
299, 329 was gobbled up by this committee, and
gives an astounding account of plumber and cor
ruption, and how a nations land and money
bounty was misappliei. This company seems
to be, not the twin brother, bnt the elder, and
much the bigger brother of the Credit Moblier.
That the allegations set forth by the plaintiffs
in the Placer County suit can be to a very great
extent, established by legal evd ence, there can
be but little doubt
1t is but few days since that Mr.. Hunting
ton and his associates were negotiating to sell
four-ifths of the great Central Pacific Railroad,
while the enormous wealth they have so sud-
denly and mysteriously acquired, affords other
evidence to support the charges made against
them

THE POSTAL CARDs.-The postal cards are
now being turned out at a very rapid rate, the
average number shipped daily from the manu-
factory being between seven and eight hundred
thousand, while the number will probably soon
be increased to one million day. The ratio of
the demand is far in excess of the estimates
made by the Department, and it now seems
likely that the first years consumption will
reach at least two hundred millions. 1t is
whispered we know not with how much TRUTH
that the paper used in making the cards costs
more than the price paid by the government to
the contractors. who will, in consequence, ap-
ply to Congress to be reimbursed for the loss
they will suffer. If this be the case, the COM
petition ought to be re-opened. The Morgan
Envelope Company got the contract because
they were the lowest bidders. 1t would be I'M
just to the other competitors to pay them a
price which, it is possible, may exceed that of
the highest bidders. 1t is of course proper
that the government should pay remunera-
tive price for the work, which has been on the
whole well done; but as the company made
their contract with full knowledge of the cost
of material, it ought to be held to its bargain.

The PAYMENT OF THE ALABAMA FUND
In the transmission of the Alabama Indemnity
fund of $15,O0O000 TO the United States, the
English Government avaled itself of the
American banBing-houses in London of j. S.
Morgan & Co., Martin, Rose & Co., and Jay
Cooke, Mccullough & Co. The bankers deter
mined to transmit about one-half through the
ordinary channels of exchange, and according
ly j. S. Morgan & Co. of New York, have
drawn by bills eight millions of dollars on the
London houses, and sold them, that amount
being placed to the credit of England on this
side. 1t is not the intention of the bankers to
transmit any additional sum in this way, but
the balance is to be sent over through the ship
ment of twenty-five bonds to the amount of
$7,5O0,O00, a considerable portion of which has
already been obtained. The transaction in ex-
change was managed quietly at the instance of
the chancellor of the exchequer, who was
afraid of the effect publicity might have on the

Treasurer Spinner on Back Pay.

The amiable old gentleman whose signature
is at the lower right hand corner of our cur
rency stated to Congressman, when giving
an opinion on the back-pay towering busl-
ness, that he was no lawyer. But he volun-
teers an opinion as layman that the only
sure way for Congressman to finally and
beyond revocation ''cover" his back pay into
the Treasury is to do it "by a last will and
testament, stating, as consideration, the love
and affection you bore your native land"
There may be great truth in this, but it will
bear a melancholic tinge, no matter how we
may look at it. The good Congress-
man is invited, like the ill-used good
Sunday school child, to sit down and contem-
plate his tombstone while the naughty Con-
Rressmen are gleefully eating their butchers
meat" That it must be saddled with "a con-
sjdezati0p" "a tQRchipg. The expiring Con-
