THE WALLACE BOND BILL.

The poor of the Republic, who have
been victimized by dishonest savings bank
have reason to thank Senator Wallace, oi
Pennsylvania, for bis Bond bill. The bill
authorizes Postmasters TO receive deposits,
when the several amounts reach as much
as ten dollars passed the Senate Thursday
last. Two important amendments were
made which will add to the utility of the
measure. The first raises the rate OF inter
est from 1865 to 4 per cent, and the second
authorizes the receipt of Treasury notes
for the bonds, which will thus make them
interchangeable, as another clause makes
the bonds convertible in Treasury notes.
The bonds are to run for fifty years. We
regard this as one of the best measures Of
the session; indeed, we rank it next in i'm
portance to the reconciliation of silver,
and we feel confident that it will have a
most salutary effect. The people will be
perfectly secure Of their earnings, as the
Government Of the United States will be
responsible for all sums deposited with the
Postmasters.

NOW AND tn I'm.

A unique reunion says the "Womarl
Journal, came to pass on Thursday, thu
9th ult., in Boston, in the assemblage o.
all the girls who could be found, who wen,
to school at the tUrsuline Convent, OIL
Mount Benedict, in 1884,, the year of the
destruction of the edifce in the time by q
mob Of incendiaries and bieots. Forty.
four years had passed, when Mrs. Geo. p.
Hayward Of ..Pinekney street, herself o
scholar there with her sister, thought to
assemble as many Of her fellow,scholars as
could be found who passed through the
tsrrible scene Of thatmemorable night. 1t
is remarkable and gratefulto record that Of
6fiiy-seven, the, number of young ladies
on that night, twenty-four were.gathered
together at the house Of, Mrs. Hayward.
Married and single, those convent girls
responded, blithe and gay, to their school
mates invitation, and all the terrible
images Of the awfnl night were continu-
ously recalled in those hours Of reunion.
The occasion was most interesting and de-
lishtful, and presented a remarkable con-
trast to the Boston of forty ofour years ago.
