swIMMINs BATHS N THE THAMES.

The London Daily Telegraph says: cit
viii soon be possible to enjoy a swim in
tie Thames. 4 gigantic swimming bath,
composed Of iron, and shortly to be rooted
in with plate glass, has been tOWed up the
river from the East India docks and mOOred
in the shadow Of IIungerfOrd bridge.
Engiishmen whose good fortune it las
been TO visit Paris, may have
seen such a thing on the Seine, but
the present great tank is the first
Of its kind that has yet foated between
Oxford and GTaveseud. All the ingenuity
of science has been taxed to add to the
comfort and enjoyment Ofits patrons. The
water thai is admitted to il flows through
thick bank Of charcoal, and is so efectually
filtered that it sDarkles and glistens as if it
were drawn from an aTteSian we'll, Gesp
sunk below the deepest chalk. Nor
is This all, for at the lower end
Of tie pool IS an apparatus Of boil
erS aud long coils Of hot piping, by the aid
Of which the temperature can be so raised
as to make a tepid bath possible, even in
the midst Of the keeneSt December frOsts.
We need only add that the depth viii be so
graduated as to suit even the most timid
swimmer, and that the price Of admission
viii, it Is said, be reasonable, even if not
cheap. That the idea has much Units favor
can hardly be questioned. The great float
ing tank viii be open TO none Of the ohjec-
tiOus that hinder the popularity of the
already-establsLed swimming baths"

IN analyzing the public debt state
Inent, with It's claim that the debt had
been decreased S6,6S0IS3 during Feb
ruary, we showed few days since that
the net decrease was only the pitiful
sum OF S95I 37, while the remainder Of
the nominal decrease was really an IN
crease Of SG.557,O46 in the cash on
hand. This unusual accumulation was
due to two causes: first, February is
enc Of the Of months during which
little or no disbursements are made on
interest account; secondly, the impend-
ing tax bill caused heavy Withdrawals
Of liquor and foreign dry goods from
bonded warehouses, causing the pay
ment Of taxes which would not have
otherwise come in for months yet.
These large receipts during February
VIII only postpone tue evil day, and
Bristow vii not have another oppor-
tuaity this fiscal year to figure out
even an apparent decrease IN the ma
tioual debt.

DRIFTING INTO WAR; FroIn the Boston
lsasellsr.]- The writer --af the. following
communication believes that we are drifting
into another civil war, Tot because the South
will resist legislation intended to give equal
rights to the negro, net because the North
will seek to enforce such rights, but because
of restoration to specie payments. His ar.
gument Is as far from sound az Is the cur.
rency he fayors. He writes as follows y.
Philadelphia, February th.-Editor
Boston Traveller /: Sir,-By an article copied
from your paper into the Press Of this
city, am glad to see that you recognize the
existence of rocks ahead, and that you will
use your Utmost endeavors to carry US clear
Of them; but you may rest assured that
when country shows symptoms of decay
and daily growing evidences OF discord,
with prospect of civil war, that that coun-
try is the victim of economic blunders. The
history of the downfall or every nation IN
the annals of the world, properly investi'
gated, will prove the truth of this position.
"As the late war was caused by that uh'
wise legislation which prevented the diVersi'
fcation of the industries Of the South, 30 as
to enable her to throw off slavery, 80 will
the next war result from those blunders
which have prevented her from recovering
!ssssm the effects OF war, and have also pros
trated the industries and beggared the PEG.
pie Of the North. In word, both wars will
have come from the measures forced upon
the country by men who were ignorant OF
those great natural laws which underlie the
advance OF society in material and moral
we'll being. "
"The last war was due to the free-traders
and bulionists. The next will be due to the
bullionists alone. :.
81 know full we'll that such doctrines as
have here enunciated will be sneered at by
all Boston, but the day is not far distant when
even Boston will rue the honr when she set
herself against allowing the people of this
land to regulate the volume Of currency as
they do the volume fall commodities bought
by currency. In brief, Boston will see the
day when she will Recognize the fact that that
which is called 'rag money will be pre-
!erable to broken national treasury or ano-
Their civil war; and these alternatives will be
offered to the country before three years pass
round. Nothing will save US from both na-
tional bankruptcy and civil war but such a
volume of currency as will put the people to
work South as we'll as North, and no system
has ever been devised which is so admirable
as that which proposes to make national pa
per money and Government bonds inter-
chaDgeable. HENRY CAREY BAIRD.
