We hope that the Senate, before following tho
hoaa1ong courso Of tho Houao in repealing tho
Bankrupt law, will aobef1y inquire how mitch
benefit will accrue to dobtors thereby. We can
conceive Of nothing mote lilkely to sturt new
panic Than to pass bili which will put evory
cloditor GU the chase aftor ovcry debtor in order
to get his own debt paid or secured before tho
property is ali gouo. Tho Bankrupt Inv puts
all creditors oil the Bamo footing aB to tho
estate Of an insolvent debtor. Tho common
law knows nothing but the "tace Of diligcnce."
Each ono for himaolf aud dovll take tho
hlndmost, is tho rule to which it is proposed to
remit tho mercantile community. OF courao It
is unpleasant to be obliged to pay dobts In a
time Of general stsingency, but how does tho
1cpoal Of tile Bankrupt law rcleaso anybody
from paymcnt?

nal that tho Auditor Of Illinois s and always las
been opposed to tho grab law Of 1869; also, that
thu journal itself ia opposed to 1t; also. that
there is no ling OF iailroad-al bon1holdars In

favor Of the grab law, because lie was 80 efficient
in itH execution, and also because 1t gayo him

not yet como to All ond, wo bolieve.
