Our River improvements.

We are indebted to Colonel w. p. CRAIG

lating against some particular man. There
fore, il the vote was reconsidered, he
would ask the gentleman to alter the amend
ment so rs to enable the Secretary to retain
the clerk he desired. .
Mr.. HENRY expressed his surprise that
the gentleman from Shenandoah, an avoWed
friend Of public education and the great
advocate Of free schools, should character
ize the library as ga luxury" Mr.. HENRY
represented that most of the pictures in
the library did not belong to the State, but
to people who had put them there at the
invitation OF the State. He commented upon
the proposition of the SPEAKER to sell the
portraits OF distinguished Virginians, and
intimated that some gentlemen, IL not
ashamed Of their ancestors land he knew
the SPEAKER was not OF his), were at least
afraid that their ancestors would be ashamed
Of them.
Mr.. HENRY said that, il not wanted in the
library, mere resolution OF the House
would cause the removal OF the pictures in
stantly. The duty Of the librarian is not to
attend to the pictures but to the books,
which are the property OF the State.
This clerk not only is librarian, but he
keeps the executive record. After the ac-
ton OF Yesterday, il this proposition is
auOpCSu VIII bO iSAo IL NV ''hoiS
Executive Department but the Secretary OF
the Commonwealth and a copying clerk,
who will certainly be unable to do the work,
which is constantly increasing.
Mr.. HENRY said that he, however, got up
to call the attention OF the House to the
resolution providing for the appointments Of
commissioners to revise the plan Of govern
ment. We should await their report. He
moved to pass by the whole subject, to offer
resolution asking the commissioners to re-
port forthwith. Ruled out of order be-
cause he had prefaced his motion by re-
marks.
Mr. FAUNTLERoY opposed the motion to
reconsider, and made speech against the
position Of those who seemed to be OPP
posing retrenchment here In the very outset.
Mr.. FAUNTLERoY quoted Governor Kem-
per to show that there Is q redundancy Of
officers in the Capitol, and that ftWould be a
benefit to the Commonwealth to reduce them
by one half.
He said that gentlemen were very bold
retrenchers until the knife was proposed to
be applied to their man then all their OPP
position was aroused. Mr. FAuNTLER0Y
claimed that the Secretary Of the Common
wealth, by the law and inten dment, was the
librarian and the Governors secretary.
On yesterday he never witnessed a more
remarkable spectacle. A gentleman came IN

of the notice given for the repeal TO take
effect, many of the banks would secure
charters from the States on the free bank
ing principle by which they would con-
tinue to do business in the same way, the
States holding their securities, as they
did in New York and Massachusetts be-
fore the war.
Senator Saulsbury's reference to the
State Banks in former times going to the
Legislatures and paying large bonuses TO
the States for the privilege of banking,
while under the present system the gov
ernment pays the banks large sums yearly
and throws in this great and valuable
privilege, was forcible and well expressed.
The privilege of banking is great one,
and is paid for in France and other
countries. We know some of our own
National Banks would prefer to do busi-
ness on the old plan, although they paid
bonus. The banking business ought
to be done by the business men of the
country. And no hostility ought to be
shown to the United States Banks nor
do we know that any exists except in the
imagination of some would-be political
croakers. The same money the U. s..
Banks have invested now they could in
vest in other paying securities or in real
nafat n1 .ana;Ya 70 Iat
bonds were paid to them in U. S. Treas
ury notes, receivable for all purposes, as
Mr.. salisbury proposed, those notes
would be as valuable as legal tender
notes, and would command gold and sill
yer at all times. 1t is mistake to think
the Delaware Senator or the Democratic
party would do wrong to any part of the
people.
