The New York Herald says: 1.-THE
advocates Of sound currency would re-
joice to see the Bank Of California re-
vive, and give splendid example Of the
resumptive energy Of hard money in
stitution. II would be gratifying con-
trast to the great failures in the Eastern
States" The advocates Of sound cur
rency will have this qualification before
long. They would have seen the Bank
doors opened before now were it not for
difficulties almost insurmountable to be
gone through and network Of compli-
cations to be unentangled. The failure
OF the Bank has already been the text of
a good many imitation sermons by soft
money organs, but the speedy resump-
ton Of tho Bank will take away most
fruitful theme.
