The emphasis with which the Presi-
dent vetoed the Senate finance bill, and
argued IN estenso against initiation,
naturally led to the presumption that
one point at least was definitely settled
beyond further disturbance by this
Congress. We cautioned our readers
that the veto RENTED the subject to
chaos, and that Grant might yet sign
worse bill The commercial world is
sensitive to such contingencies, and the
New York journals continue to COM
plain of the uncertainty that hangs as
a pail over the future, paralyzing all
legitimate enterprise, and encouraging
the spirit of gambling. Herein lies
the intolerable curse of Govern
ment engaging in the banking bust
ness. Under this unholy alliance. all
financial legislation affecting every
man, woman and child, is dictated &C
cording to the mere political exigencies
of the dominant party. Grant has We.
toed an imitation bill of S64, 00e, 900.
Will he approve like bill for So, OcO,-
600? The answer depends, not on his
Judgment of the interests of the coun-
try, but those of his party, as Conk-
ling representing the East, or Morton
the West. may succeed in Impressing
him. The mere reporting of this bill
by the Senate committee, indicates a
belief that the President is still an
uncertain quantity, notwithstand-
ing his strong message against in
fation. The financial policy of the
country is really as uncertain to-day
as it was on the gathering of Congress
last December. Our banks here in
Nashville hold large amounts of idle
money, much of it the savings of provi-
dent farmers, mechanics and other
producers. Let us take the case of the
humble artisan who has accumulated a
1 thousand dollars for wife and little ones
I in the rainy day. Dare he lend it out
to-day on twelve months to his enter
prising friend or school-mate, who
wants to put it in new factory
Gold is to-day 1l2. A year
hence it may be 40, by
some twist Of financial tinkering, and
his 81, 900, instead of being increased
by the interest, would be actually de-
creased and haveless purchasing power.
This is no suppositious or isolated case.
We are cognizant of many such in this
city. The uncertainty discourages
economy and thrift. 1t leads men to
spend their salary as they make 1t.
The panic OF last fall caused much ex-
travagance in this way. The security
for deposits was not sufficient, and the
lack of confidence in banks led thou
sands to keep their money in their poe
ket, from which it was expended IN
many idle ways. Men who usually lay
by $50 to $50 a month. found, when
their confidence in banks
returned, that they had
none left to deposit. The streets
of a city are a continual temptation to
men with money in their pockets. We
allude to these results among the mid.
die aud lower classes, because these
are always the most seriously affected
The merchant and the capitalist make
a study of money, aud know better
how to guard against known contin'
gencies. But Congressional Legislation
is an unknown sea, swapping the cal
culations of the shFeBdest- Any deci
1 sion that is final, would be bStter fol-
all classes than the present uncer.
tainty.

FROM all portions of the State our
advices are that the masses Of the peo-
pie were never more determined to
unite on their best men for the various
offices, and frown down all third candI-
dates, running on whatever plea.
Every question on which the Demo-
cratic majority differ can only be ad-
justed to the satisfaction of the major
ity by their keeping control of the
State and counties. No Conservative
can look for any reform from a restora-
ton of Radicaism.
