1t is a favorite cry of the Green
hackers that because the national
banks receive interest upon the bonds
they deposit to secure their circula-
ton the bank note currency is to this
extent burden npon the people. AS
matter of fact, the creation of the
national bank system, besides its
services to the people in supplying
perfectly secure notes of universal
currency, was great help to the
Government by making a market
for the bonds. If the banks should
all be suppressed by law, the Gov
eminent would have to pay interest
on the bOnds just the same, so that
not cent would be saved by the OPP
Grafton. The Greenbackers endeavor
to evade this difficulty by saying
that enough greenbacks will be is
sued to take up the bonds deposited
by the banks, the amount so issued
taking the place Of the bank note cir
i'culation. AS q matter of fact, even
this, if it were possible, would not
effect aAy saving, as the loss of the
annual taxes paid by the national
banks would equal the saving Of in
terest by the cancellation of that
much debt. The annual interest now
paiG BY the Government on the bonds
of the banks is Slz,676 ,391, and the
annual taxes paid by them are about
the same surs. The banks, however,
COULD not be paid off in greenbacks,
even should the solemn pledge made
by the public credit act of 1863 be re-
pealed. AS will be seen by the
statement of the Comptroller, con-.
tanned in our Geographic adypes from
Washington this morning, the bulk
of the funds deposited by the banks
are payable, principal and interest,
in coin by the original terms of the
contract. - B0itin1o%e 4Aneeric0n.

A Twelve Per Cent, Shave.

In the last years OF Democratic
rule the credit of the Government
was so reduced that of the S10,010,90O
notes Of $500 issued, S4,84O, 900 were
placed at a discount eqmirolent to y
per cent. interest,", the rest of the loan
at various rates from 6 to IL per
centum. Now, in the face Of an i'm
mense debt and heavy taxation, the
direct result of the Democratic re-
bellion, the Republican administra-
ton has ready demand for Govern
ment bonds at par and only per
cent. interest. In the one case we
have the highest, in the other the
lowest rates ever paid since the
organization of the Government.

Mr.. SclIurz sees plentiful signs of
reviYing business, of quick ening en-
ergy and vitality ininduStry, and all
that is now neeted, in his opinion,
to furnish a sound foundation upon
which business may build itself up
anew is, first, good national and in
dividual credit, based upon national
and individual honesty second, a
sound currency, of real and staple
value; third, a safe and reliable bank-
ing system. Mr.. Srhurz Celebrates
the need for a restoration of credit at
great length. He considers it the first
and most necessary thing to initiate
a business revival. and in this view
of the case the attacks of the green
back party upon the government Sc
curities and their holders he regards
as being most disastrous to the bust
ness hopes of the country. "Disturb
that credit by any act or attempt
weakening the confidence Of the
world at home and abroad in our
ability to pay or in our honest pur-
pose, and the funding process will
cease, and with it the benificent re-
suits flowing from it. Thus you see
in this, as in other things, it is not
only most honorable, but it pays best
to be honest The most expensive
thing a nation can do is to attempt
to get rid of its obligations without
honestly discharging them. The next
expensive thing is to bubble about
them"
The immediate embarrassments of
the State of Virginia furnish the best
possible commentary upon this text
it is rarely that the moral and the
application run so closely together.
The financial condition of this fine
old Commonwealth, which in years
past had unlimited credit, is deplor-
able. What with "scaIers," "forci-

ference, at which it is said the Gov
ernor made most earnest appeal
for means to meet the extraordinary
exigency. Ii is reported, however,
that the bank presidents returned
only an evasive answer. The secur-
ity was not adequate. These bank

WASHINGTON, d. c.. Oct. /, 1873.
1t will be remembered that Eugene
Hale, NJ. G.. from the 18th Maine dis
trict and Chairman of the Republic
can Congressional Committee, was
defeated by one Murch, stone cutter,
strike organizer and, it is said, an
avowed sympathizer with the tramp
nuisance and with the reorganization
of society on a communistic basis.
Murch seems to have secured his
nomination by the ;nongrel conyen-
ton that put him forward as its rep
Feaentative over one or more intelll-
gent competitors, by boast after the
first unsuccessful ballot that he had
never seen the inside of school
house since of a very tender age and
that he was not worth a dollal.
From the fact that Hale is the lead
er of the recognized Republican side
of the House, his commanding posi-
ton in the party generally, the pecu-
liar nature Of the last campaign in
his district, and from the notorious
lack of his successful opponent in the
