Ex-SEcRErARY McCULLoCu, in his
last letter to the Tribune, discusses our
national credit abroad, and the causes
that have lowered it in the eyes Of foreign
nations, BE finds these causes almost en-
tirely in the default Of the regulating
States. 1t Is true, be says, that American
credit has suffered by the failure Of SO
many Of our railroad companies as have
within the last two years "gone by the
board, !" entailing immense losses upon the
holders Of their bonds; but these failures
have had altogether less influence in Shak-
ing the confidence Of men who look be-
yond the mere question Of pecuniaFy loss
in American credit and American char
actSr than the default Of the States, This
arises from the inability Of foreigners to
understand the complex features of our
State and General Governments, That q
State should have the power to contract
debts, 10 able to shield itself against pros
ecution for the non.fulRllment Of It's obi.
cations by its sovereignty, and at the same
time DO so situated as to avoid the respon,

when the States that compose it have
shown themselves to be untrustworthyT
aWhat assurances have we that your

that, IL is certain to result sooner or later in

CATION by those vested with IT is therefore as
much open 10 criticism as its abuse. The
appointment Of all officials should be kept
In the hands Of the government, which is

iigid accountability to the public on the
other. Besides, while preachers and relig-
ious organizations are well enough in their
way, and capable OF accomplishing great
good so long as they keep strictly within the
line OF their proper functions it is notorious
that whenever they undertake the manage

less men on Pennsylvania avenue at the
decrease oftTalle on this thOroughfare, causei
by the miserable condition of the wooden
pavement. which deters persons from driving
over IL. II Will be recollected that the Dis
trict Commissioners had the subject of paw
ing this avenue under favorable coasidera-
ton carly the present season, with fair
prospect OF devising measures To this end,
when a remOnstrance, signed By several
property hoderS on the line. was laid before
them, which had the effect to deter them
from any further action in this direction.
a movement has, however, been recently
started by some Of the business men to have
this necessary work done the present season.
The kind OF pavement they advocate is the
same as that used on the Ave1ue over the
Tiber creek arch at ID street, known as the
'vulcanized concrete pavement" The sam
pie referred 10 has been in use for nearly
five years. and is still hard and durable.
In fact, Is nearly as good as when first laid
down. The plan proposed by them is TO lay
this concrete six inches deep in the center OF
the street, and taper down to about four
inches at the curb, the material to be laid on
a hard foundation OF coarse gravel placed on
The present bed Of sand and gravel, the whole
TO cost 81 80 per square yard. A petition is
in circulation with the view OF obtaining an
expression of all the property holders in
favor of this plan, to lay before the District
Commissioners, asking that they take the
matter in hand and push it TO compile
ton at once. 1t should be stated that the
remonstrance against repairing the Avenue,
referred TO above, was not signed by bust
ness men generally, but by a few pro-
perty Now that they have seen the
ill-efects of the bad condition of the car
riage-way, in driving business TO other thor
oughfares, by which the value of their pro-
rerfy is deprecated, with threatened ma
terial reduction OF the income from il, 1t is
TO be presumed they will withdraw their pro-
test and join with the other parties interested
in their efforts to have the work done with
out delay.

Ii is safe 10 say that there never was Pre-
sidential aspirant in more embarrassing
Predicament than Senator Thurman finds
himself in just at this time. He is an orfgi-
nal hard money man, and opposed To infia-
ton, as are unquestiOnably the majority OF
his party throughout the country. The DEM
Ocrats of Ohio, however, it will be remem-
bered, adopted rampant paper money and
Imitation platform at their convention last
month. And here Is where the pinch comes
in If the Senator endorses the Ohio plat
form, the rest OF the states will slaughter
him without benefit OF clergy in the national
convention next year. IT, on the other hand :,
he opposes the imitation platform, he Will go
into the convention without the support of
lis own state, or with a divided delegation,
9 best, and therefore can stand no chance of
getting the nomination.
MaEifestly the best thing Mr.. Thurman
could do, under these circumstances would
be TO say nothing. But this course he will
not be allowed TO take. Like the boys, when
lightning struck the tree under which they
were fishing, and none OF them could pray,
something's got 10 be done, ani that
almighty quick, or therell be big trouble"
Accordingly, he will make the best OF bad
scrape, and take the stump on the 3Ist, at
Mansfield, where he Will announce his dis
agreement with the financial features OF the
platform, but at the same time urge the re-
election OF Governor Allen, who stands
quarely upon it. The one he considers only
local issue, and the other he regards as ne
Cessary for the success OF the democratic
party. Hence, &c, &c.
Riding two horses at once, or even half a
dozen, isn't counted a very difficult feat in a
clrcus,-that is, when they are all going
the same way but riding at the same time
two horses that are going in opposite dlrec-
tons is quite another thing. And that is
precisely what the ambitious Senator pro-
poses To DO. Ifhe persists in il he will be the
worst split-Up man this country ever saw.
