to leave his post at st. James because
his private fortune is not sufficient to
enable him to hold up the dignity of his
country by respectable style Of living
among the foreign ministers, British Of.
ticials and aristocracy. 1t is fact that
Schenck's predecessors for thirty years
have been men of large private means.
Motley, Adams, Dallas and Buchanan
are, or were, men of considerable pri-
vate wealth. Schenok is comparatively
short; and to consume what he has
while too old to recover by returning to
his profession would not be wise.
What we would say to this is that the
salary Of our 1rst-class foreign Ministers,
SIT, 800, with outfit to the same amount,
is twice as much as need be expended at
that or any other Court. Franklin served
the country there for the tenth part of
that sum, If not gratis; and his service
was Of the greatest possible Importance.
He served while the dismemberment of
the Empire was threatened, and the
birth Of our great Republic was impend-
ing. When did ever Minister need all
the respectability which Lavish expendi-
lures could afford? And yet Franklin
did not fail to command the highest pos
sible respect. He even drew to himself
the high consideration of the British Off
cials as the chief instigater of the dis
turbance in their American colonies.
With even his barley Loaf under his
arm and his lodgings in garret, he
would have been the most commanding
minister this country ever sent to that
minister, because he represented British'
colonies and not an Independent power;
but though only an agent of the colonies
his services were ministerial in the high
est sense and under circumstances of the
greatest delicacy and embarrassment.
We're he now alive, he could take
Schencks place and hold up the dignity
OF his country while receiving one-tenth
Of the sum our minister at st. James now
costs the country, and no American in
terest would suffer.
He might not have the respect OF
English snobbery, but he would be treat
ed with the distinguished consideration
of his high position by the officials, and
would secure the applause of the British
common people. With Franklins for
American Ministers and salary of
So, 900, Great Britain would have been a
republic thirty years ago. Our anti-re-
publican representatives in foreign
courts discredit popular institutions,
and awaken no popular interest in free
principles. They live like all other
aristocrats.
And yet Eastern journals are sneering
at S17,50O as beggarly salary for the
Minister of great Republic, and unless
the people make themselves felt in the
Government more than they have for the
past fifteen or twenty years, it will be
increased to $4,000. The simple truth
is that it is not necessary to junket with
the aristocracy in order to command re-
spect abroad. Our guns 'alone can dc
| that.

THE st. Louis Globe is severe on the
banks of that city. We are told that
there are eighty odd banks of all kinds
In St. Louis; that every State and Ma.
tional law is disregarded, violated or
evaded by them in one way or another;
that not twenty per cent. of the banks
OF st. Louis could survive the test OF a

that at least seyenty-fve per cent. OF

luck of a speculative adventure, on the
failure of which they are prepared to

continues:

GEORGE WASHINGTON.

The Boston Journal of Commerce
gives the following description of
George Washington's personal appear
ance: Washington was six feet two
inches in height, with very erect, ro-
bust, stalwart frame. lie had a fine
breadth of chest; long, we'll shaped,
and very strong arm; broad, large
hand, with grasp like wise; and
very straight, well-rounded lower
limbs. He had a large head, set OH
a strong, full neck, with command
ing carriage. His hair was brown, or
dark auburn; his eyes grayish blue,
set far apart, and his complexion rud-
dy or forid. Stuart, who painted
him, declares that the sockets of his
eyes we're larger than he had ever met
with before, and the upper part of his
nose broader and fuller. All of his
features were indicative of the strong
est passions, although his judgment
and great selfcommand made him
seem different in the eyes Of the
world.

Gilbert Fernside, rich Australian
cattle owner, proved, indeed, nugget
of fidelity. There was grand we'd
ding, to which Jerry was asked, but
he answered he was far too wise man
to make himself uncomfortable. In
stead, he sent the bride pretty good
bracelet as his wedding gift-a pres
ent affectionately treasured by Clare.
Years after, the young wife in hor
home at the antipodes, received the
following characteristic letter.

in the breast of bright cheerful home

was ever held in cheerful memory.
