Kill the Burglars.

Whether the shooting of burglars is
a perfectly legal amusement is a ques,
ton which has been submitted by one
Thomas II. Reilly to that eminent
light of the law, Charles O'Conor
Esq, of New York. Mr.. Reilly de.
sires TO know whether the law requires
that IA burglar shall be challenged be-
fore shooting him, even if he be seen
in the act of plundering, and also if it
is lawful to shoot him on simply seeing
him enter ones house at night Mr..
O'ConOr expresses the opinion that If
you shoot burglar while plying his
avocation ono one will inquire wheth-
er all the forms or ceremonies were
served which some ancient lawgiver
or modern enactment for that case
made and provided, may have dis
creetly suggested, whatever may be the
strict law applicable to the case and
whatever exact duty might enjoin, no
magistrate will commit the slayers to
prison, no grand jury will indict them,
nor will any district attorney prosecute
or petit jury convict. If, indeed, any
one in this line of official authorities
could be found TO act adversely, the
next in succession would be apt to re-
pudiate his doings or if concurrence
of the whole could be imagined, end.
ing in a conviction, il is very certain
that no Governor would hesitate an
instant in awarding to the accused u
safe deliverance by his dispensing pow

The Value of National Banks.

Gen. Garfield, in late speech in
Ohio, said:
The proposition of Ohio Democrats
to abolish National banks aud issue
$3.50, 900, 600 additional in greenbacks,
betrays remarkable ignorance of the
methods 10y which business is carried
on. IL assumes that currency is the
chief instrument of trade Money is
our measure of value, tut is by no
means our great agent of exchange
Nine-tenths of all business l. transact
ed 10y means of bank credits. In the
month OF February, 1871, an examine
ton 10y the Comptroller of the Treas
ury INTO the transactions of ffty-twu
banks during six consecutive DAYS
showed thai they received over their
counters in the six days, Slj7 600, 600
of which only $40, 600, 900 was in money.
All the rest was in forms of CONNER
cial paper. Not more than ten per
cent. of the exchanges Of this country
are in money. This il illustrated hy
the steps taken IN purchasing and
marketing our great agricultural pro-
duct, nearly every trAtieactiuu being
| 10y bill, check or draft. Money is now
only the small change of commerce. \
bank is as essential to this exchange
of values as a railroad to the transpor
| tation of merchandise.
| Our two thousand National banks
/ located all over the country are busi-
ness centers, where unimployed money
| finds its way, and into which business
men resort for loans and accommoda-
| tions. In these banks. at this season
| of the year, are about 500, 600, 600, and
! their loans and discounts reach 5000, e.
! 900 600. Business men rely on them
with confidence, because they are held
| by the strong bonds of the law to be
| faithful, and are constantly under the
| eye of the Government, They must
march abreast of the Government in
efforts to restore the currency to par
with gold. Whenever the Govern
ment makes the greenback equal to
the coin, the banks must DO the same
with their notes.
All this the Democrats propose to
overturn. The people are to he left tn
private banks, and to the tender mer.
cies of the Shylocks of the street
Where have the great failures fallen
Not upon National banks, but upon
private banks-Duncan & sherman
and the great private Bank of Califor.
mia, whose operations were not
checked and guarded by the powerful
control Of the Government.

The Nature Of Sound Currency.

On this point he said Do these gem
tlemen propose to distribute them rs "a
gift? A business man in the MahOn-
ing Valley wrote me: 1--WE want
more currency 10 carry on the business
of this valley | myself need more for
my own business | answered him
that / should be glad to aid him in any
way | could, and if he would tell me
how much currency he wanted, aud
send Inc something to buy it with, |
would buy il for him and send it by
express. 1t was not currency he lack
ed, but capital, aud all the paper print.
ed at the Treasury would not have in
creased his capital. Let US put our
selves in shape to use the one hundred
millions of currency that is to-day ly-
ing idle in the country, before we add
to the pile by printing more. No man
who has studied the subject with care
can doubt that an increase of paper
money will depreciate the value of the
whole mass, will scale down the value
of every dollar in your pockets, will
change the terms Of every dollar inyOul
pockets, will change the terms OF
every contract, of every agreement, of
every transaction between man aud
man, will della" the revival of business
by driving c Jital into retirement
Money is an Instrument of trade as a
ship is Of transportation. If there be
just enough vessels on Lake Erie t.
carry all the freight of its ports, who
does not know that if the number o
ships is then doubled each will be
worth but half as much for the LAKE
trade as before? So il is with curren
cy. Like everything else, it obeys The
law of supply and demand.-FrOn
gen. GarJietds Ohio Speech.

The United States and the Centennial

A Philadelphia correspondent of the
New York Tribune says there is dar ger
that the United States will be highly
Represented at the Centennial Exhibit
ton. Up to this time the number of
applications has not reached $500, not
one-half that will be required to fill the
assigned limit. Several States and Ter
ritories are as yet wholly unrepresen-
ted, and there are others that give no
promise Of making anything approach
ing satisfactory exhibit of their in
dustries and natural products. The
opinion is expressed that there will be
a great rush of applicants as soon as a
day is fixed for closing the books, but
that day can not be much longer post
pOned.

THE AYEEs trial at Maryville has
resulted in a mistrial, owing to the
sickness Of one of the jurors. The
defence proposed several plans by
which verdict could be had but the
representatives Of the State did not
feel authorized to make any conceSs-
ions, a gentleman residing in Mary
vile, of excellent judgment, writes to
Us that a very general change in pub.
lie sentiment has taken place there as
to the chances Of convicting Ayres
and that the cause Of it has been the
publication Of the letters purporting
to have been written by Ayres to
Webb for the purpose Of hiring him
to kill Reynolds. These letters were
published and generally supposed TO
be genuine. But on the trial they
were not offered as evidence, and no
attempt was made to prove them
genuine. Counsel for the defendant
offered to prove them forgeries, and
we are informed that Col. Baxter
made some pretty strong insinuations
as to what they would prove in refer
ence to their origin, publication, &c.
if an opportunity was afforded. We
have heard many comments on this
failure to produce the letters or ex
plain how they came TO be published
Grave suspicious have been aroused
which, if allayed, would promote tho
cause of justice. If the letters are
genuine, they ought to be produced
and 90 to the jury. If they are for
series, the public want TO know who
forged them, why they were given Il
the press to publish without their frs
being fully verified, and who is re
sponsible for it,

OUR contemporary of the Press and
Herald, in n recent issue, gives its
surmises as to the age of the editor
of this paper. We will inform our
neighbor that on the 29th of last
month we were seventy years old.
When the painful duty devolved
upon us OF writing the obituary OF the
late Ex-President johnson, we had
lived to speak kindly Of the virtues
Of the last survivor of the large
number of politicians in Tennessee
whom we encountered and fought on
our advent into public life. That the
Lord has been so merciful to us, and
so long preserved us in the midst Of
great dangers in prison and out Of it
we, in part, attribute to the fact that
we never voted the Democratic ticket
We were first Il Federalist, then ;
Wing, now a Republican, and, by thC
blessing of God, we stand ready t.
oppose anything or anybody appear
ing under the guise of States Rights
Repudiating Democracy.
