Current Notes.

1t is the opinion of the ST. Louis RepubIi-
eGn-the leading Democratic paper of Mis-
souri-that if the Democratic party, after
fifteen years Of political seryitude, can find
no more potent rallying cry than "hard
times" no nobler standard than paper dol
lar, then its hostility to the Republican party
rests upon an exceedingly fimsy foundation.
The Chicago Tribune predicts splendid
Republican triumph this fall in Wisconsin.
The nominations made, most of them by ac-
clamation, by the Republican State Conven-
ton, are all of excellent character and calcu-
lated to inspire confidence in the peopie.
Hon. Harrison Luddfngton, the nominee for
Governor, is one of the most popular men in
the state, and was so conspicuously fit for tine
position that he was placed at the head of
the ticket by acclamation.
The Washington Republican has always
been thought of, if not spoken of, as the Ma
tional idiot; and hence the palpable hit in
Mr.. Charles Nordhoff's letter. But the Re-
publican is not the organ of anybody or any
thing, except its own stupidity.

THE WAY TO BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT.
The Chicago Tribune devotes leading article
to the speedy recovery of that city from the
panic, and gives the annexed details of the
process:
The period since the panic has been devoted
to settlement The nsolvent have divided their
assets among their creditors and have stepped
down and out The holders of the mortgages
on real estate have exchanged their evidences
of debt taking up one with another, and re-
leasing contracts that could not be filed. In
dividuals have settled their balances, collected
all that was due them, and paid off what they
owed New debts, unsecured by available Sc
curity, have not been contracted. Credits are
short, prices low, and payments frequent.
Business is done nearer cash basis than ever,
to the great advantage ard profit of all con-
cerned. Money is abundant and the rates OF
interest low Production is constantly en-
largiug, and il wages are not SO nigh, prices
of commodities are prOroruonately less, ana
| there are more persons employed The depos-
| its of the savings banks have largely increased.
An over the city, even TO the extreme districts,
| improvements are going on, aud there is a gem
eral activity-all indicating that, while the ex-
| travagant expenditure of 1878 no longer exists,
| there is better, because more substantial and
permanent, business now doing; that, while tue
short cuts to fortune have been abandoned,
there are more persons .pushing onward along
the slower high roads to comfort and compe-
tenCV

A PROPOSITION is made to perpetuate the
memory of the notable commencement at
Bowdoin last week and pay merted honor
to distinguished son Of the college by en-
dowing Longfellow professorshp of modern
languages. As Portland is-th birthplace of
the poet the movers of the matter are inclined
to look to this city for leadership, and 4
strong hope is expressed that subscription
papers will be started so that contributions
of all dimensions according to the wishes or
ability of each giver may be received. AS a
further Indictment to liberal giving it may be
stated that about 100000 have been sub
scribed to the general fund of the college, OF
which only about $4,000 have been paid
The payment of the greater part Of :he bal
ance is conditional upon the raising of $10,-
600 more before July 20, so that whatever is
done must be accomplished within week,
and contributions to the Longfellow professor
ship will be counted as a part OF the $4,000.
There seems in this situation abundant in.
ducement for the friends of Bowdoin in this
city. TO bestir themselves.

THE Democratic shouters are always telling
their readers about the amount of money
which the Government loses by defalca-
tions. From these reports one would con-
clude that the greater part of the public funds
went into the pockets of thieving officials.
Actual reports of the Treasury department
show that the per cent of the losses in the
collection of the internal revenue since March
3, 1869, is less than one-fftieth of one per
cent of the amount collected or less than two
dollars on ten thousand. In the collection OF
customs, the loss has been one hundredth of
one per cent of the amount collected, or five
and fve-eights dollars on every one hundred
thousand.
