The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1877-11-21

Representative GARFIELD, IN his
speech in Congress on Friday, made two
points which are we'll worth considering.
One was that the commercial distress in
England at the time Of resumption there
was not regarded as due to that process,
but TO other causes, and especially to the
unrepealed Corn laws; the other was that
the amount Of legal tender currency IN
France ia no guido to the amount re.
quired in this country, because business
there is done by very different methods,
and almost entirely by the actual transfer
Of cash, while in England % per cent and
in this country 80 per cent Of nominaIIy
cash transactions are Effected by means Of
checks, bills and similar representatives
Of money. Nothing Is more misleading
Ihan the theory that i! ia the quantity o.
money rather than it, quality on which
depends the prosperity Of trade.

The third week Of November opens
with fair auspices for the continuation Of
The moderately active buGlness which hRs
characterized the month 90 far. True
there are, a. there have been all along,
some dull spots In trade; but on tie
whole the aspect Of Affairs both In manu-.
featuring and mercantile circles IL quite
encouraging. The requirements Of buSi.
meas for bank aecomodationA to-day were
moderate In volume, bat the offerings Of
paper were good in character. The banks
are pretty well satisfied with the situG.

willing to extend their discount lines 4

be Eaid that the moderate earnings now

afford more satislAcloty results than II

ARRoPos Of personal temperance, a
New York paper prints an interesting &C.
count Of the system Of bank restaur.
ants which has grown up in that city.
OF the IS banks connected with the New
York clearinghouse, 80 furnish their
clerks with luncheon inside their own es.
tablishmeuls. This il done either by
having man to run the cuisine or by haV-
ing a neighbOring restaurant send in the
food. The advantage Of this system is
that It reduces the cost ofliViug to the
bank service, it removes the temptation
incident to strolliDg around for a glass Of
beer, and gives a more regular and whole
some diet, and, finally, it keeps their men
within call, 60 that If a certain clerk ia
wanted, as often happens in banking, he
can be had. Where the service amounts
TO 40 or 50 clerks, they have to be divi.
ded into messel, which necessiIates some
variation 10 the hour OF luncheon. The
Equitable insurance Company has a pri.
vate entrance to Delmonicos for its
clerks, and contracts for reduced prices;
the Western Union telegraph dines IRON
300 to 400 people. The prices, too, are
very low. The Herald compositors have
roast beef and potatoes or raw oysters for
10 cents, beef stew Tor 10 cents, pie or
tea or coffee 5 cents. The Western I'm.
ion card contains the following prices,
from which 80 per cent discount is made:
Potato soup 10 cents, raw oysters ID
centA, roast beef or cold tongue 95 cents,
mush and milk, crackers and milk, pud.
ding or pies, 10 cents.

before his death, the old Commodore
suffered physical tortures sufficient 10
kill an ordinary man long before he sue

aides had rooted themselves in his system
and his internal organs were partially
destroyed or eaten through with disease.
Whilst thus suffering agonies that at
times made him writhe and shrek with
pain he was at war with his own chill
dren, who were eagerly watching for his
death and quarreling among themselves
in anticipation Of the spells. Whilst on
his death bed he refused to see some Of
his children, and the favored son who
inherited the immen,e wealth the
old Commodore had spent his Life
10 accumulstiDg, had to put up with
degrading insults from his irascible
iAther in order 10 retain his Chance Of
securing 1t. That wealth does not always
bring happiness was never more clearly
shown than by the revelations 80 far
made in the Vanderbilt case. The old
Commodore went through life without
the affection or respect Of any Of his own
family. He had gathered fortune Of
one hundred millions, but could not buy

that satisfied the nearer he meant it to be
