The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1878-01-21

They seem to have q fancy in Cincinnati
that five million dollars could be raised in
Wall street to pay for the assassination
of that fine type of the Jabberwock states
man whom the Western people love to call
the ''Tall Sycamore of the Wah-bosh"--a
comparison perhaps derived from the fact
that the sycamore is tree of no special
value for any useful purpose, but that saws
the air with its long arms only to attract
attention to its somewhat scabious aspect.
Their opinion of the way in which Wall
street would like to spend it's money
is an apt illustration of how little they
understand points of this nature. Indeed,
the Western people seem to part company
with their wits when they undertake to
reason upon the expenditure or use of
money in any connection, and we can as
sure the relations of the man from Wah-bosh
that he is in no danger. As long as the
West will consent to be represented in great
discussions on finance or kindred subjects
by men like the sycamore orator Wall street
can better afford to spend its millions in
paying special policemen to sacredly guard
the lives Of such persons, for the re-
suit is simply to deprive the West
Of its proper influence in the ma
tional councils and to permit legislation
to be conducted as If the West were absent
Mr.. Voorhees, speech has already had the
effect in the Senate of destroying the small
chance the silver scaling process had Of get
ting through that body. There was just
enough reasonable argument in the silver
project to impose upon many well meaning
men, who regarded oil the opposition to
it as inspired by money interests only, and
who did not deem 1t o practical theft. But
when an advocate of the measure argues,
with an incalculable amount of eloquence
to the square inch, that its greatest glory is
that it is theta step toward establishing
the equilibrium of Communistic fancies-the
measure needs to be saved from its friends
Oh, no let the sycamore continue. No
body this WY wants to kill him.

Iunux or Gold.

The Cunard steamer Abyssinia, which
left Liverpool on Saturday, carries two hun
dred thousand pounds, or one million dol
lars, in gold eagles, which had been drawn
from the Bank of England for shipment to
this city. The London Times of the same
day, in its financial article, which is excel
lent authority, stated that similar amount
would be Withdrawn from the bank on that
day for transmission to New York; and the
Economist. also reliable source of informa-
ton, anticipates further drain for the same
destination during the present week. This
heavy shipment of gold indicates that large
purchases are expected to be made here for
expectation to England, and excites the be-
lief that the English government may DO in
the market as buyer, probably, of bread
stuffs and other supplies, and possibly Of war
materials. Fortunately we have supplies OF
grain, -four. hogs and beef on hand ample
to meet the demands Of our foreign GUS
toners without cnmping our home market
or materially affecting prices, and IN active
shipping trade this winter will be Of wide-
spread advantage to the country. 1t will
benefit the Western States and the trunk
railroad lines MS well as our own city, will
give employment to labor and will lay the
foundation for good spring trade for our
dry goods, grocery and other Wholesale

A New Site for tho Naval Observ-
atOry.

atOtys
The unsuitable and unhealthy site at
present occupied by the Naval Observatory
at Washington suggests to every visitor to
the capital the question, Why was such
building ever placed on swamp? Probably
the desire to have the Observatory within
the city limits and near the other chief gov
eminent buildings prompted the adoption
of the site, but certainly no recommen-
dation ns to suitability could have influenced
it's selection for such purpose. We are
glad to notice that an effort is being made
to remedy at this late day the original
blunder and to secure for this important
institution proper location. This should
be done for three imperative reasons--the
efficiency of the Observatory for the pur-
poses for which it was founded, the safety
of the valuable instruments that it contains
and the health Of the able scientists who
are attached to it officially, and who have
contributed so much to give it worldwide
reputation. The value Of the Observatory
to the interests of science and material prog
ress cannot be questioned, and 1t should
be matter of national pride to place it and
equip it so that its highest efficiency may
be developed. We hope that Congress will
at once make provision for the removal of
the Naval Observatory to new and suit
able site.
