The opinions of John Law, before he en-
tered on his career as grand master of the cur
rency and finances of France, bear striking
resemblance to those held by Mr. Henry C..
Carey previously to our own experiences with
the greenback. The opinions of Law, when
his system was in the hight of it, activity,
and those Of Mr. Carey at the present day, are
also identical. Both men underwent COM
plete change of creed, and the views of noi-
Their at any time were sound, though to quote
the words of Adam Smith, uttered century
ago, their "splenlid but visionary ideas still
" continue to make an impression upon many
"pcoplc."
The characteristic of the earlier opinions of
Law and Mr.. Carey is the exaggerated impor-
lance which they attach to money. in their
view the only salvation for nation was to
keep its stock of gold and silver always aug
menting. Both were partisans OF the balance
of trade, or mercantile system, which, 10y the
wav, is not identical with Protection to native
manufactures, as we often hear asserted. I'm
onestionably the most wealthy and prosperous
European nations wear the best coats, but an
appropriation of 100000, 900 out of the taxes
to put brOadclOth on the backs of all the voters
would not increase the National wealth, how
ever welcome the measure might be to most OF
the advocates of imitation. So likewise gold
much less, paper-in the pockets of the people
is not the cause of the prosperity of any
nation, but the effect. 1t was in constantly
considering the pos session of gold and silver
as the cause of wealth, instead Of the con-
sequence, that the early errors of Messls. Law
and Carey consisted. In the formers Money
"and Trade Considered" published in 1905,
occurs the following passage, which we are
forced to retranslate from the French edition
of Laws works:

THE END.

They have new State Treasurer in New
Jersey; and we believe good one. At any
rate, should he turn out dishonest and steal
the State money during his term, it will as
tonish the community; whereas, when the late
Treasurer was arraigned as defaulter TO such
a high pitched tune, nobody was in the least
astonished. The gentleman who now lam
cuisines in prison in Trenton, for want Of bail,
was the last person in the world to be IN
trusted with the public funds. lie had
trouble when he held the Office of
County Collector, and settled up his accounts
with some difficulty. He was, however, an ex-
cellcnt party man. Nobody paid more liber-
ally toward the expenses of brisk campaign.
Nobody gave better dinners and suppers to
hungry and thirsty members of the Legisla-
ture. lie understood perfectly well the extent
to which men carry their political principles in
their pocket-books and their stOmachs. He
was good fellow and so they made HIM
Treasurer. They might almost as well have
made him Bishop of the Diocese.
1t is to be further noticed that what this
festive oflice-holder could MT spend upon others
he found no difficulty in spending upon him

seemed most original in the scheme The en-
dOwment was to cover expenses completely; 80
that all the. advantages and accommodations
could be given free. Nevertheless moderate
charge-one that they could afford to pay
was to be made to the workingmen who be-
came members. Our friend had the exact
figure for this determined; but perhaos, in
thai, he was q little premature. Tho
weekly subscription was to DO Vigorously
collected on pain Of suspension from the privi-
leges of tho club. But the whole of the money
thus collected was to go to the credit OF tho
individuals paying it. IL would be applied ~
each man might choose for himself, TO a saw
ings bank account, on q policy Of life or OF
accident insurance, or perhaps in reputable
building association. II savings bank ac-
count was preferred by the member his money
paid in should draw interest Immediately, and
be turned into bank only at dates when it
would draw interest there. A similar rule
should apply to all pending investments. To
facilitate life insurance. the agent and examn-
ing physician of some safe company should DO
at the clubhouse every evening. Il would DO
part of the system that competent clerk.
whose salary like other expenses must he paid
ont of the endowment fund, should keep all
accounts between individual members and the
banks or companies with which the subscfip-
ton moneys were invested.
Thus, then, said orr friend, rubbing his hands
with pleasure at his own fancies, there would
be place for the workingmln to spend his
evenings, to meet his friends, and to enjoy
himself. He would be Obliged to acquire what
he most needs, the habit Of saving part of
his wages. Consequently he would soon be
come better citizen, a man Of property, not
half SO easily moved to folly by asitators and
dcmagogues. Was the scheme az baseless IS

AMERICAN ART AT THE CENTENNIAL
We called attention q few weeks ago to the
lack of system in the arrangements made up
to that date for American exhibitors OF every
kind at the coming Centennial. With regard,
however, to the department OF pictures ana
statuary, there appears to be no arrangement
made at ALL American artists abroad and at
home are beginning to complain loudly, that
while every European country has made care
full preparation to be represented by
her best painters and sculptors, NO
step whatever has been taken by the
Commissioners to give our own artists
place. no information offered which would
lead them to infer that if they send picture
or statue there will be competent authority
To accept, reject, or even receive 1t, or any
space for Its exhibition if received In short,
in this Exposition of American Art and Sci
ences, they appear to think that American Art
is totally and designedly ignored. Both the
artists and the press are emphatic in their
condemnation of the apathy of the managers,
who have appointed no comm tie, no super
"intcndent, have settled nothing as to the
"terms on which the artists are to contribute,
"nor invited nor encouraged a single artist to
"become contributor"
Now there can be no doubt that the man
ayers have erred in so far ignoring American
Art in their arrangements but there Is WORD
to be said on their behalf. They are, in PLAN
fact, just now hard-worked, long-sufferinS
set of men, badgercd to the last point Of en-
drrance by fault finders and sOrely pressed to
raise the money absolutely needful for the
bara completion of their work. American
artists and American academies have the rep
utation of being very sensitive, not to say
Jealous class and while it is doubtless a
grieyous error to shove them aside I'M
til the eleventh hour, we can readily
comprehend the weakness of human nature
in the managers which has led them to do it.
Already, although they shave not been al
"lowed hearing" they have been uneasy
and querulous: the National Academy of De-
sign of this city having its supporters who
urge it as the proper source from which should
come the Committee of Arrangements and
the final critical authority; while on the other
hand it is inveighed against bitterly by artists
outs;.fc and others, who hold that committee
of artists would lie most unfit judges OF
pictures. If this premonition OF storm wakes
so heavy when 10 arrangements are begun,
what may be expected when they are madei
The managers, however, can delay no longer.
it will be totally useless for them to try in
this matter of Art to satisfy everybody. They
may as well take heart O grace, appoint their
committee according to their best judgment
and accept the subsequent inevitable fault
finding with whatever resignation Providence
may give them. There certainly will be
space set aside for American Art. and the
danger is now that it will be crowded by a
display from nameless daubers, while our few
worthy artists will be but nomnally repre-

throughout that class, and that the men who
are now held up to public execration As Con-
nolly's murderers were not the only persons
who werc brutal to convicts. Unless the
methods of punishment in tho Penitentiary
have been improved under the present admin
istrsiion, they include barbarities which should
be checked. 1t was not long ago that prison
ers were confined in the hideous "dark cell"
so long that the infection became torment
and a crime rather than just penalty and
warming

The friendly relations between the white
and the colored people in the South rest upon
too delicate basis to encounter such shocks
as that caused by the Middle Georgia con-
spiracy without risk of serious cons quenccs
either immediate or remote. Respect for law
and order has avcrted the blOodshed which
seemed imminent in the disturbed region, but
evil effects remain in mutual dstru5t where
the people Of both races had begun to learn
how to live together in peace. The letter from
Sandersvillc which VIC print to-day is care
full presentation of the dangers of the present
situation. The position of either race il easily
understood, but we fail to sec assurance of
peace and prosperity for Georgia in any policy
other than that of moderation and forbear-
ance which has been followed during the last
two weeks. The whites will gam nothing by
treating The negroes SO harshly that they will
be compelled to seek homes in other States I;
and as for the negroes, they may rest assured
that they will be nowhere more comfortable
than on Southern soil and among Southern
people.

before the Consular Conference takes place.
News from other sources, however, represents
the insurgents to be intent on having Chris

the reported revolt in the southeast of Bosnia
render it doultful whether Server Pashas an

Not even the usual relaxatiOns of the season
seem to have checked the bitter war which
Insurance Commissioner Stedman OF Con-
necticut has been waging against the Aneri-
can National Life and Trust Company of
New-Havcn. TO the vigorous attack in his
Report last Spring, in which he called the
subscriptions to the Company's capital, Grub
"bish," he has added a series of cocrcve
measures designed to force the concern into
bankruptcy, which are very fully described i'll
a letter on third page. The question
whether the Company is really insolyent is
one for the courts to decide. Till that is
ascertancd it may be doubted how far the
labors Of the Commissioner for its ruin arc
iustiGa5le. IF a company that is in a weak
condition can be resuscitated by the efforts
and sacrifices OF its directors, tho result is in
every way better than to infiict n widespread
loss by its failure In weighing Commissioner
Stcdman's acts in this affair, it will not be

the entire management of life insurance last

THE BLACK HILLS ELDO-

Gold Fields Forty Miles Long and Twenty Wide---Prof.
 Jenney's Report.
From New York Sun.l

From New York Sum-
 CHEYENNE, Oct. 17.-Prof Wal ter P. Jenney, chief of the geolo- gist expedition of the Black Hills, and his assistants returned here yesterday, having spent five months in the hills. He made a thorough examination of the whole country, and mapped it from Bellefourche to the south fork of the Cheyenne river. He reports gold fields extending forty miles north from Harvey's Peak, and twenty miles wide, that con. tain gold in quantities that will pay from $3 to $5 per day to the man, and that there are bars on numbers of streams that will pay much more than that. The water supplies are ample for working purposes. and fully sufficient to carry water from the top of most of the bars and allow the tailings to be readily disposed or. The gold is coarse, good, and easily separated from the gravel and sand. The professor has with him an ounce of coarse gold that two men obtained on Spring Creek with ten hours labor. An assay of this gold shows it to be $40 fine, worth $l9.43, coin, to the ounce. Prof. Jenney corroborates Gen. Custar's report.of the hills, and says they will support thous- ands of miners when the Govern ment opens them to settlement. The valleys are all adapted to az riculture, and the hills and the canons to stock raising. Rain fall is plentiful and timber album dant. His official report will be made rom New York probably before Congress meets,
