SHALL THIS THING GO ON L:

In the past four weeks there have been
reported IN the news columns OF tho daily
papers some one hundred SUSPENSIONS
and failures, the liabilities involved ag-
gregating sl5,OO0O00 TO $2o,0OO,OcO.
Startling as this record of one month is'
however, it is far from complete. The
most numerous class of failures, the small
ones, is seldom reported. Thus, during
the month of December, in New York
alone, there were one hundred failures,
with liabilities amounting to $S,O0O,OOO'
less than twenty of which were an
nounced by the Associated Press, and,
Judging from the number already re-
ported from the metropolis, January will
make even q worse showing. These
figures are alarming enough 10 them
selves, and, taken in connection with
those for the last quarter of 1877, they
show state of affairs very nearly as bad
as that which prevailed during the panic
of 1873. The losses Of that year footed
up 1927, 499, 900, sum only exceeded IN
1857, when the total amounted to $751;
10000. 1t was to be expected that the
records for the years following would
show a steadily declining proportion OF
failures, as was the case after the
panic of 81, when the figures fell
from 1921, 10000, as we have said
in that year, to $95,749,0OO IN '5s,
and S64,749,OOO in 80. On the contrary,
though there was a decrease in IA TO
$l55, 239, 900, the total rose again to $2Ol,-
100000 in rs, $l9l, l1I600 in '76, and
$3.50 669,OOO in II. Last year promised
to show decrease of at least 100000,
but. as we have already pointed out, be-
ginning with last September there has
been sudden and astounding increase
Of failures, with no sign, as yet, Of any
abatement. Well my We enquire when
this is to end?
Just so long as an impractlcable re-
sumption act is retained upon the statute
books of the nation as threat to all bust.

pect this tumbllng into bankruptcy.

PAYING THE PUBLIC DERT.

Mr.. BECK gave notice IN the Senate,
yesterday, that he would, to-day, call up
his bill declaring it inexpedient to tax
the people for the purpose OF putting
S37,OO0,0O0 into the sinking fund this
year. We haye already commented fs-
vorsbly upon this bill in the REGISTER
and we are glsd to find that our views
are in accord with those entertained by
our most careful and thoughtful fnsn-
ciers. AS we have before suggested, the
government hiss already paid 1921, 000, 900
moro Of the public debt than was required
by the Sinking Fund Act-thst is, we
have paid this much in advance; and there
seems to be no sound reason why further
psymen. should not now be stopped
until more prosperous times set in. Re.
lieve the industries of the country OF this
$87 100000 annual tax until this s22l,-
100000 Is made up-which would require
about six yesrs-snd the disenthralled
industries would not fail 10 respond to

members the conversations of NAPOLEON
at st. Helena, upon the subject OF Con-
stantinople and the Treaty OF Tilslt; and
as to Germany, the Cologne Gazette
which is the exponent OF the In
nermost thought of the German
nation, looks back upon the Cri-
mean war and ridicules the idea that II
was bootless and proftless. Had 1t not
been waged, says the Gazette, Europe tc-
day would have been subject to the In
perious domination OF Muscovy, and the
unity of Germany would have been the
mere fgment of dream unrealIzed-
perhaps never to be formed into shape.
Thinking thus, and feeling persuaded
that England is ready to fight, and Will
be strongly supported in case OF need We
can not but think that Russia, while ap-
| psrcntly saving her prctensions, willvir-
tually sbste them, and in that case peace
is but question of time.

In conversation with correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial, Governor
HENDRICKS expressed the belief that the
Resumption Act will not be repealed, al
though it "hss been the source of the
greatest calamity to the business inter-

says it WAS not passed TO subServe any
supposed interest of the country, but as

action of diplomats. The two powers
now face TO face and upon whose deci-
sion the final arbitrament of European
peace, or war the like of which the
world has not seen, depends, are Russia
and England. Turkey is now, in the
ultimate solution, but minor factor
1t is the most important to consider, not
the relative strength of the Grand Duke
at Adrianople and the forces Of GHoUR-
Ko and SKoBELEFF upon one side, and
MEHEMET Ali and SULEIMAN Pasha
upon the other, but the attitudes of the
Cabinets Of st. James and ST. Peters

ly the pretensions of the rival leaders of
the Government in their respective coun-
tries, and carefully TO examine the basis
of the support they can command at
home and abroad.
The real point at issue now is not
whether Turkey should yield, nor is 1t SO
much as TO the exact amount of the con-
cessions to be required of her. The sum
total of the argument is whether, upon
q question admitted a hundred times to
be European, upon the common chsrsct-
er of which the Treaty Of Paris of 1856,
and the Protocol of London of 1871, pro-
nounced in terms the most decided
which could possibly be employed by d.
plomscy, Russia, as victorious belliger-
ent, can impose her will upon
Turkey, and, through Turkey, up
on the whole of Europe without
its consent. This, stripped of sll dis
guises, is the question now agitsted in
every::..ehGneeilerse in the Old World
The result will be that If Russia is per-
mitted TO have her full wish, irrespective
of the interests of others In the settlement
of the Eastern question, then goodbye
once and forever TO anything like con-
certed action. The whole of Europe
feels the force of tho argument, and
hence it is not surprising that Austria

of the Russians, and that Prince Bis

for the purpose of running ten days or
