New YoRK, Novomhar l6.--Tha Times says
official permission has been given it TO announce
the discovery Of Stowart's remains and each

The principal perpe!rator is out of town, bat is
Swallowed. All the others are in New York.
Three sets Of detectives are engaged. one
under Chief Keaiy, another under Inspector
Murray. and the third under Hilton, all concen.
trated on the same clues. The parties having
the body are different set from tho robbere.
The conspiracy is arranged With great care.
Three persons hired room at 4 Stuyvesart
Place week before the robbery, and had
large leather trunk which was taken in car.
rage on the morning Of the robbery, while tho
parties strolled off. Tho body is believed to hsvo
been taken to the church portico, thence across
taken to jersey City ferry, and then sent to tho
interior Of tho State. The exact location il

eral days ago, but secrecy kept to make sure
of arresting every one and securing full punish
ment and making an example. Money is being
largely spent. a prominent Easl-Side under-
tsker is supposed to BIO implicated. Much credit
ia given the regular police.
The police authorities do not confirm the story

Richmond, Fredericksburg and Poto-
mac Railroad.
The Richmond, Fredericksburg and Po-
tomac Railroad Company, at its session OF
yesterday, determined to postpone the con-
sideration Of the scheme to reGstablish q
mixed line OF water and rail between Rich
mond aud Washingto until the 2lst OF May.
We trust that by that time it will be found
altogether unnecessary IN the opinion OF
the advocates of that scheme TO press it any
further; for there is good reason to believe
that in tile interima schedule for fast Gay
line betw cen this CITY and Washington may
be established. One Of the resolutions favor
ed BY the gentlemen who brought forward
the proposition for the mixed line indicated
their desire that there should be such all
rail day line, and it is inferred that with
that line they will be content to waive their
scheme, which has met with such general
disapprobation.
1t will be seen by the report OF the pro.
.ceedings in our local department that Mr..
BIDDLE, OF Philadelphia, dBclained any
disposition to pursue course that might
show a want OF respect for public opinion.
He dsclaimed any other object in his move
ment than that OF promoting the interests
of the company. Mr.. CONWAY ROBINSON
made similarly graceful disclaimer, and
the meeting was evidently gratifed.

DIR. William n. Rufner. Superintendent
OF Public Instruction. passed through the
city to-day to speak in one OF the adjacent
counties. He spent ON hour or so with the
classes in our High-School, and expressed
himself much pleased with the exercises
he witnessed and the advanced condition
OF the pupils.
There are some twelve cases on the Com
monwealth docket Of the Hastings Court,
which meets on the third Thursday in this
month. Fully third OF them are cases in
volving breaches OF marital relations. The
docket is composed mostly OF: misdemean-
ors, and our quarterly delegation to the
peniteptiary will be small.
Candidates and people are anxiously
awaiting the announcement OF the place
and day OF the primary election, but the
committee having the matter in charge have
made no report, and everybody is in the
dark. The only facts positively known are
that we are to hayea primary, and that all
registered white Conservative voters WITH
out reference to the payment OF the poll
taxi are to be allowed to vote.
A cold northeast. storm has prevailed here
since II O'Clock last night. Rain has fallen
without intermission, and the farmers IN
this section will have no cause to complain
OF drought for some time to come. The
rain was very badly needed.
The sales and receipts Of tobacco continue
large. On some days the offerings OF loose
are SO large that it is impossible to get
through with more than two or three OF the
warehouses. Except for really good to-
bacco, however, the prices realized are low.

The silly idea of Some Bankers.

AS we supposed would be the case, some
of the bankers recently in consultation
upon the resumption question deny thai
they are correctly reported, and disclain
the views attributed to them. Officers 0!
national banks also disclaim sympathy OF
approval with much that has been put forth
imparting the idea that national banks
might occupy the position OF antagonism
to the measures of the Administration fol-
the resumption OF specie-payments. And
we feel convinced that what has emanated
from alleged bankers going to show that
resumption might be suddenly INSTRUCTED,
and to show further the power Of the banks
to cause this obstruction, was only tenta-
tive bit OF strategy to bulIdoze Secretary
SHERMAN into paying commissions for the
help OF the Smart inanciers, who, after
producing alarm, offered TO get the Seere-
tary out Of difficulty by their strategy.
Secretary SHERMAN has the support OF
leading papers in New York. The Tribune
shows the utter absurdity of the suggestion
that the banks.might il they would defeat
ton. As the facts it states are instructive,
and SO far as the alleged financial power in
New DIRK is concerned, conclusive, we
copy the following from its editorial on the
subject:
The notion that the banks can afford to
make war on the Treasury, in order to de
feat resumption, is in the last degree pre-.
posterous. The country banks are entirely
dependent Tor necessary part of their re-
serve upon the banks OF the reserve cities.
The reserve cities are in like manner de-
pendent upon New York. The only cash
reserve In the country TO Withstand single
weeks alarm or the slightest pressure from
the Treasury is held by the New York banks.
What does it amount TO? On Saturday last.
IL was only IL IL per cent. OF the deposits
less specie OF the New York banks alone.
Bnt the United States Treasury held on the
same day, in excess Of all certificates, specie
to the amount Of 20 per cent. Of its legal
tender notes. and has full power, by issue
Of gold certificates, to increase the prepor-
tion ut any time TO nearly SO per cent. The
reserve OF the Bank Of England Is less than
383 per cent. Moreover, the Secretary has
power to sell A. or even per cent bonds,
TO any amount that NAV be necessary, in
order TO Increase his store, and there is not
q sane Banker in the country who doubts
that he could sell at any time "a, 200, 600 OF
these bonds, which, would raise his cash re-
serve 70 90 per cent. OF the demand iiabili.:
This 10 not all. The Treasury Is coining
silver at the rate Of about $4,000 eco per
month, and can have on hand ss88, 0G0, GOO
