DUTIES NEGLECTED,

In regard to finance Congress may truly be
said to have done nothing that it ought to
have done. Disregarding its failures, let us
note briefly the important duties which were
not so much as even thought Of At the head
of these we place the matter of reducing the
interest on the Public Debt. The saving
which, by the adoption of some common-sense
plan of funding, it is entirely possible and not
even difficult to effect, is over nine millions a
year. For several months our five per cent
bonds have been from one and half to three
Der cent above par in the markets of the
world. All this time has been suffered to
elapse, and we have thus far the magnificent
sum of six million dollars subscribed for the new
loan during this calendar year. Four years
ago, when our bonds, both fives and SKIES,
were at a discount, Congress took great
interest in the subject of funding the
Debt. An issue of thousand three
hundred million dollars in four and four
and a-half per cent bonds was offered to
the world at par. Only two hundred millions
of fves were authorized. The world laughed
at us, and justly, too. Now, when there is a
market for our bonds at par, aud q reduction
of interest to the extent of one per cent on
over nine hundred millions of debt is
easy, Congress and the Treasury are notion
less The necessity for some additional legis-
lation will appear from this fact alone THAT
while there are over nine hundred millions of
fve-twenties subject to call, the power of the
Secretary to issue five per cents is limited to
two hundred millions.
The second subject which it was desir-
able that Congress should have taken some
notice of, was the manner of MIR. Richardson's
issue of the extra tweuty-six million dollars.
That issue was made in the months of OctO-
Der, November, December, and January, long
after the panic. 1t was wholly unnecessary,
since the Treasury held, during the whole of
that period, from forty to fifty-fve million
dollars in gold, and could have provided it
self with currency at any moment by selling
coin. With the consent il not by the order
Of the President, Mr.. Richardson stopped for
four months his sales of gold. and steadily
inflated the currency. Who will say that that
imitation was necessary 1t should have been
the last resort of the Treasury instead of the
first. In view of all that has since happened,
we cannot think of this disgraceful act with
patience. 1t has not, however, to our
knowledge, called forth solitary protest from
any one of our "a Senators and 293 Repre-.
sentives in Congress. The legal-tender circu-
lation has, for the time being, been fixed at
s3S2 100000, but no provision has been made
for supplying the Treasury with funds in the

event of q temporary deficiency Of revenue
case by no means unlikely to recur 1t is
not even improbable that in the event OF
repetition of last Falls experience, twenty
Ave or fifty millions more of greenbacks wouid
bo issued--and Congress would only be too
glad to legalize them. The suspension OF the
English Bank Charter act would be quoted as
a precedent! Who can say that we have seen
the last Of the panicsf
A third question which, though legisated
on without stint, has never received parti-
Gle of intelligent consideration from this Con-
gress. is the subject Of banking. With pos
sibly few exceptions, every Dahk In the
United States suspended payment nine months
ago. Depositors were forced to be content
with certificates that the banks owed them
money, but neither legal-tenders, bank notes,
nor fractional currency were to be had, ex-
cent that in order to avoid resort to barter,
in some cases currency was dOled out for the
navment of wages. Here was highly inter
eating and unprecedented state OF things,
worthy. ono would think, OF the atten-
lion of Congress. But to investigate
those extraordinary occurrences never entered
into Congressmans head. DO not they
know by instinct all there is to know about
banks and currencyf The vast system of the
National banks representing mass of active
credit beyond the power of imagination to
conceive tho disturbance Of which has just
been felt by every living man, woman, and
child in the land, was handled by this Con-
gress as baby handles rattle. Such igno-
rance of the subject, united with such reckless
ness of consequences we venture to say can
not be paralleled in tho annals OF Anglo
Saxon legislative bodies. And all this
without the slightest suggestion from any
one that little information from
bankers and business men, or from other per-
sons having a knowledge of the subject, might
be useful And this right after panic, at
tended by unusual and startling phenomena
in the workings of tho banking system. The
result of it all is that wo have law. first
heard of on Thursday passed by the Senate
on Friday, by the House on Saturday, and
signed by tho President on Monday, which
makes most important changes in the restric-
tions heretofore imposed on banks. Imagine
sick man rushing into an aDothecary's shop
and swallowing the contents of the first bottle
he sees. If the intention is political suicide,
there may be method in this madness. But
the professed object was relief! Relieved the
country is, but it is because Congress has dis
persed and the Capitol stands empty.

The trial of Police Commissioners Charlick
and Gardner made gratifying progress yester-
day. The ready promptness with which the
defendants counsel facilitated every step of
the trial was equally proper and expedient.

who take the opposite course have the advan-

The list of appropriations made by Con-
gress before the adjournment is published in
full upon our second and third pages. The
reductions made by the strenuous efforts of
economical members in both Houses do not
assert themselves so conspicuously upon this
list as sanguiDe reformers might desire. But,
after all, the country will look with more in
terest upon the way in which these apprOpri-
ations are expended than upon the amount
voted. Public opinion has done great deal
this year with Congress. 1t can find an ad-
mirable field of exercise during the vacation
among the office-holders of the Administration.
New-York tribune., 1874-06-25

There is at least crumb of comfort in the
refection>that Congress at Its recent session
did less than its average of lavish and cor
rupt legislation. The influences which effected
this are various. The first is, of course, the
awakening of yeasty consciences; then the
prospects of impending elections, the exer-
tions of honest committeeman, and the ma
iignant aud serious watch of the newspapers
may have had their weight. We hardly dare
to compliment our Solons upon the empty
hands with which they go away. The honest
ones will regard it as an insult, and the other
kind will feel as Reynard would have felt If
you had congratulated him upon the acidlty
of the grapes he could not reach.
