WILL aEHATou BoGY RISE AND EXPLAIN
Senator Door has introduced into the
Senate Of tho United Statos q bill which au-
thorizes the payment Of import dutios in
grccnbacks. We have some questions 10 put
to tho Senator thereon. Our columns are
open for tho reply which 1,c may vouchsafc.
Your bill, Senator, outside of its subject
mntter, demands our consideration upon two
grounds, viz: 1t is tho first Democratic meas-
,1re laid before the Forty fourth Congress.
Unloss disavoved, it will naturally be taken
us forcshadowing Of tho policy which the
Democratic party, in the Senate at least,
means to pursue on tho most important qucs-
tiou now before the country,-that Of flnanco.
In the second place, you represent tie sister
State of Missouri. bound to Illinois by
many ties Of interest and friendship
BENTON and Scnunz Rre greator names than
ToaY and CocKHrL1, but perlaa I's you and
your colleague may yet do something worthy
Of your place. At any rnte, we call upon
you, ns the Senatorial mouthpiece Of Mis-
aouri, to explain and defend your bill, to
nnswer tho questions we are about to put.
Il, az We believe, yon are treading n,arshy
land, your reply will n!forl you an oppor~
t',nity Of gracefully e1tricating Senator Boo1
from the bog.
Would not your project produce auh-
stantialIy the following results: Tho Govern
ment, instead Of receiving $1G0, ,0D0, GOO gold
ycar from customs, would get about the
sand number Of greenback "dollars." At
present the Secretary Of tho Treasury Is re-
quircd to pay from this sum, in round num-
be,1, SIRE, 1000 600 for interest on the In
tional debt and for the sinking fund, ,-3102,-
000, 900 for the forn,or aud 333, ,000, 600 for
tho Inter. He then has $25, 600, 900 In gold,
which he Gun either hoard for purposes of re-
sumption or sell for graenbacks with which to
] defrny curront a1pensea. The twoitems Of in-
tereAt and sinking fund by contract with tho
public creditors must be pnfd in gold. Tho
Secretary Of tho Treasury would therefore
have to go into the market with his $780,
00O, 900 Of greenbacka, received from duties,
and buy gold. He cannot sell bonds for the
purpose Of meeting these two items; be has

The Friars Point Delta, OF last Satur.
day, which reached us ahead Of the
mails yesterday, says: Merchants and
planters will persist in sending to Mem
phis for corn, when they can get it at
the wharf boat for one dollar per bushel,
a saving of from ten to fifteen cents per
bushel. Dryer & Carroll also keep
bran, oats and hay on hand" The
pleasure OF having patrOnized such
clever people as are running steamers
between Memphis and the bends, ought
to justify the extra expenditure for corn,
or any other article needed by the farm
ing community.
The st. Louis Republican, Of Tuesday,
says: "The w. D. Smith has angled |
her last revolution with her angle-wheel. !
That boat to-day passed into the hands
of creditors. This seems to be the usual
way, and nobody in the steamboating
traffic is astonished nowadays to wake |
up and find himself busted" Jes' so,

expired, you will find very large num- |
Der of all sorts of wheels that have an |
gled their last angle and padded their |
last paddle, and have passed under the |
marshal's hammer. And in the MAORI |

misfOrtunes by the cut-throat system OF |
doing business. Lay that up for future |
reference.

FINANCE AND TRADE.

IN FINANCIAL CIRCLES the great sub
ject Of discussion is the immense failure
OfDuncsn, Sherman & Co. The general
conclusion appeared to be that--although
there will be little direct influence
produced here, public confidence, which
was slowly recovering from the effects
OF our last panic, would receive a shock
that viii sgain tend to draw money
from general circulation, and throw it
into the banks. Such result would be
most unfortunate, but we can hardly es-
cape it. The tenor OF the news from
England, also, is OF a discouraging
character. That cotton-mi should be
closed by hundreds in Ashley, Staley
Bridge aud Oldham, is q bad indication
for the opening Of our next cotton sea-
son. There is a good deal OF
gloomy feeling. which is hap
PLY relieved by our excellent
harvest prospects. We observe that
some OF our best mercantile and finan-
cial papers are heavily "down" on the
insurance companies for so drawing up
their policies that simple, unsuspectIng,
straightforward men are "taken in and
bbue lDl utel uuECIuD ulOuslks Inc
New York Bulletin, for instance, has the
following: "a teamster brings from a
country neighbor DOCTORS prescription
to druggist in the village, and while
the medicine is being prepared you can
imagine his attempting to make out the
meaning Of the queer labels on the bot
ties, and the curious names on the nu-
merOus drawers. The bewildeTnent of the
teamster is akin to that OF common
man who tries to arrive at the real
meaning OF life insurance publication,
or the jRrgOD OF one OF their solicitors"
