Tt Is NOT cut Of order, before we conclude,
to take Che question on che preamble to the
bin. 10 il rare preamble Many gentle
men who voted for the act objected to the
preamble. II is somewhat fanciful, and not
Ibornc.ont bysacts in oil! its assertions. But
II. preamble ail'know, is not part OF the
ACT it- introduces. 1t is only available, in
legal construction, In a case where 1t assists
in the Interpretation Of the meaning OF q
clause In the law. Generally, 1t Is not more
important In law than Ia q telegram In the
records Of court, which, according to
Judge BOND, is Of no consequence, as he
declared In court one day that kilograms
were no part OF the record OF that court.
We mean no unkindness TO our friend
from Washington, the author OF the pream-
BILE, when we say that it is OF no more effect
upon the law than his drab hat with the
green rim; aud VIC are sure he will pardon
/ us for saying that while some call the bill
foul one we pronounce the preamble FoW'
LER, We felicitate him upon his happy
preambulatory dream at the close OF the
session.
We conclude by the remark that the con-
eiiatory compromise which closed the ses-
sion was happy; and we feryently trust
that it truly manifested that harmony which
will ultimately bring about happy settle
ment of that most troublesome OF ques-
tions-the public debt.

FLOR The Dispatch.l
Voluntary Taxation by Self-Denial.

The proposal OF Matron, which appear
ed in the DISPATCH a few days ago, deserves
the profound and alIectionatc consideration
OF every patriot. In the true spirit Of the
Roman mother, she would consecrate her
Jewels for the honor OF her country. She
reminds one Of the heroines who gave the
long black hairs Of their beautiful heads to
make bow-strings for the warriors that de-
tended the land. She is doubtless one of
those who few years ago illustrated their
devotion to the Confederacy by tolls and
sacrifices which can never be written.
AS matter OF fact and OF figures, the
State debt can very soon be paid, and in
the mean time the highest interest that the
contract demands can be promptly awarded
to every bondholder by little OF the SELL
denial which this lady proposes.
Each one must Judge for himself how far
the emergency requires him to go in taxing
his pleasures TO redeem his State. But
can present statistics, which no man or
woman can overthrow, to prove that the ex-
travagance Of our useless expenditures
gives wide margin for the exercise OF pa
triotism.
The Barbour bill presented 4 prospect of
annum to our creditors. It's fifteen cents
on the one hundred dollars, with Il proposed
share OF the belI-punch fund, would have
Yielded about million Of dollars to pay in
tercst on debt exceeding thirty millions.
BY no possibility could we, said its adYo-
Gates, raise another million, so as to pay six
per cent. But according to the revelations
OF the Mofiett register-a thing which [
have never seen, nor beard, nor tasted
Virginia spends at bar-rooms three millions
of dollars.
The dear old Commonwealth, over which
Mr.. Ficklen, a worthy and honorable gen.
tleman, goes into raptures, in which I
heartily sympathize, spends another three
millions in acknowledgement the debt, but
the thirst OF those sons and daughters
who drink at home. The share OF legisla-
tive readiusters and debt-payers in these
libations has not yet been ascertained, but
it Is presumed that it rises to the average OF
other citizens. II we should conclude
that it is more patriotic to give all OF what
our liquor costs to the State than to give q
small part 10 the tax, and the rest to the
vendor and to appetite, six millions OF our
debt-probabiy more-would be eXtin-
gtIished in one year. How many VIII alb
stract their donations from this traffic, and
save their strength, their time, their per-.
sonal happiness, the. peace and welfare of
their families, and the credit OF the Commons

Legislative Retrenchment.

We think that the Legislature at its late
session acted most inconsistency in passing
the rctrenchment act and failing to pass the
bill to enforce the collection OF the MOI
FETT-register tax. Inconsistency is not the
moot grievous of legislative sins; but in
this instance the Legislature intlcts serious
injury upon the State. The retrenchmentact
does not save third as much money as might
have been collected from the register with
the help Of the enforcement bill. There
was something In the undercurr ents OF
legislative scheming that was adverse to the
collection Of very large. revenue from the
MoFFETT register. Even the inventor OF
that instrument was not distinguish ed for
his wonted perseverance and parliamentary
activity in support Of the enforcement

The inhabitants of the Square.

The adopted citizens Of the Square-those
little English bull-sparrows-Whlch nave
filled all the boxes Of the Square and all the
inches about the Capitol, and all the box and
cedars, and the pockets Of JEFFERSON. the
uostrils of WAsHINGToN's horse, and so on,
are in the very hurly-burly OF domestic
cares and industries. The loves, the ma
ting, and the fighting, are rife. Such fights
as the belligerent little rascaIs get up occa.
sionally are wonderful. Conflicting claim
ants to household apartments, and also the
iayors OF the lady sparroWs, sometimes ex-
haust themselves in fighting, pause awhile
to blow, and then return with undated
yindictiveness to blows. The fights are
innumerable. An observant friend has
studied these little fellows very patiently,
and he assures us that it is a custom in the
society OF these birds to fall upon each gay
Lothario who ventures to make love to q
lady sparrow who is alreadya matron and
a housekeeper. This '"is what's the mat
ter,n he says, whenever you sec a flock Of
sparrows pursuing one and picking him
sharply, plucking his feathers, and lacera-
ting his flesh. II this be SO the example OF
these sparrows is worthy of emulation.

Federal Finance.

In the congressional report OF yesterday
1t was stated that the Currency Committee
had agreed to report bill allowing the
national banks to replace legal-tender notes
with United States bonds bearing an inter-
est of four per cent. ; these bonds to DC
held at par as the reserve fund held 5y law.
This will enable the banks to hold an inter-
cst-bearing reserve fund instead OF one that
paws no interest. Furthermore, it will add
somewhat to the floating currency. Be-
sides, the measure, if adopted, will cause
considerable demand for four-per-cent.
bonds, which will strengthen the finances
of the Federal Government.
Mr.. SHERMAN has had conversation with
the Finance Committee upon various mat
tiers. Upon the subject Of resumption he
expressed himself as decidedly opposed to
the repeal OF the resumption act. lie said
that resumption could not be maintained
permanently without retaining the legal
tender function for about S300,00O,OOO OF
United States notes. This is concession
to the views Of many tinanciers who have
censured the plan Of retiring with reckless
haste the greenback currency. We think
Mr.. SHERMAN very wise in his suggestion.
There is no necessity for curtailing the best
paper currency that the Union ever had 4
currency that will not be forced by lis
holders upon the Government for resump-
ton. There will be no public pressure on
account Of the return Of the greenbacks
upon the Government.
The grcenbacks should be left ahoat as
long IS the people need them. Ii currency
must be curtailcd let il not be the legal ten
ders. While they are circulating they di-
minish the burtlen Of taxation and afford
an entirely satisfactory currency for the
people. Ii is neither wise nor kind in Gov
ernmcnt uselessly to curtail circulation
which is so bcnefceIt for the people.
Mr.. SHERMAN is getting much wiser by
his experience. He still affrms his belief in
the help that silver will afford in the matter
OF resumption.
1t seems to us that the present is as good
a time to resume as any future day. Pre-
paration has been in progress for months.

the money world for some time past. Un-
fortunately law was passed fixing the time
for resumption. Whenever that is done it
is sure to cause great deal of anxiety and
excessive caution in the way Of getting
ready for resumption. Gold is almost down
to Oar with bank-notes, and what is to him
der resumption Resume now, and that
ends all preparation and all appreben-
sion. The financial and commercial COM
munity would know the feelings OF the
man who fell down bank on a dark
night, but broke his fall BY grasping shrub
as he went over. Thinking he might have
several hundred feet TO descend before he
reached the bottom OF the cliff, he held on
with all possible tenacity, until towards
morning, exhausted, his hands inyolunta-
rily uncasped and he fell-only about Si1
inches!
Resumption would put the nation at rest,
confidence would be Immediately restored,
and trade, enterprise, and industry be set
free.
