of the nomination for Nicc-Prcsident on the

"would have preferred that Peter Cooper

"alone should be our battle-cry" But 'ary
does not shrink from duty. He expresses II
willingness to step into any position where ne

The decision in the Leland bankruptcy case
shows that even the shrewdness of the late
Mr. Stewart and his legal adviser was INSULT
cient to obtain sound security from an enbar-
raised debtor. The mortgages given by the
Lelands on personal property as well as Their
transfers of real estate, are now pronounced
invalid because they were then insolvent.
The Bankruptcy Court effects valuable service
by doing away with the claims of favored
creditors, which in former times used to swal-
low up estates. But on the other hand the
fees and expenses of bankruptcy are apt to
Absorb, a heavy share. so that after all there is
little left to the smaller creditors under either
system.

The experience of the country under the di-
yided rule of Republican Senate and Dem

as to what the new Congress will be, after the
Presidential campaign. With regard to the
Senate calculation is practicable; that body
is likely to be Republican, though only by
small majority.
