'Lost or Unreae 2 emed Bank

The Comptroller of the Currency in
the concluding portion of his annual re-
port, just completed, says, in regard to
lost or unredeemed bank notes:
"The belief is very generally enter
tanned that considerable portion OF, the
circnlating notes of sach natiohat bank
will ultimately be lost or destroyed, and
will therefore never he. presented Tor req
redemption. 1t is also frequently stated
that the loss of such notes mures to the
benefit of the banks, Neither supposi.i ion
is correct. Section 5,222 Of the Revised
Statutes requires that all national banks
which 60 into voluntary liquidation shall,
within six months thereafter, deposit in
the Treasury an amount Of lawful money
equal to the amount of their circulating
notes outstanding. The law also requires
that full provision shall be made for the
redemption OF the circulating notes OF
| any insolyent bank before any dividend
is made To creditors. Thus it will be
seen that no association can close up its
business without first providing for the
payment of all of its circulating notes,
and that the amount deposited must re-
main In the Treasury until the last out
standing note shall have been presented.
1t is therefore plain that the goverern-
ment ond not the bank receives all the
benefit arising from lost or unredeemed
| circulating notes"

PHILADELPHIA is to have new line
of ocean steamships, to be known as the
Blue S'ar Line. The first vessel will
leave that port next week, and hereafter,
until March, two vessels weekly will
leave for Liverpool, and rice rersd. In
March the line will be increased by six
vessels, making feet of thirteen. AZ
ter that month the steamers will leave
the port tri-weekly. They are intended
entirely for freight service, and it is an
ticipated that the line will give great
impetus to the export trade not only o.
Philadelphia, but of Western cities.

WE think it win % befound. when the
negro Jones statenents are all examined
critically, that they are entirely too mum
erous and romantic to be true. The
Dodson family must have been very low
in morals and far from the respectable
people they were at first reported, or Jim
would not have been made such a'pet of.
Had they iivcd- some-cf the sections
north of US where the negro is claimed TO
be "an equal and brother,"iwe should
not have been surprised at his familiari-
ty. His remarks to the negro woman
Eliza, about Mrs. Dodson's leaving her
husband to come to him, was enough to
make an innocent and honest wife put a
dozen balls through him. But then we
think an innocent and honest wife would
have stood her ground and shot him in
open day. 1t is bad case in any view.
His story about burying the dead babies
looks doubtful and willful also. For IL
would seem that country girls could have
used spade for this purpose themselves,
or secured the services Of Vincent, and
thus tried to avoid the exposure of their
shame TO the negro.

IN ONE WEEK from to-day, Congress
will assemble. Both Houses being Or
ganized, they will proceed to work a,
once. There will not be much actual
work done before the Christmas and
New Year holidays are over; i; but great
deal of work will be laid out; and no
doubt questions will be put before the
Houses to test political sentiment and to
show how parties stand on several of the
main issues that will be discussed.
Should the Resumption law be repeal
ed this session, and resumption take
place, nevertheless, the country will feel
at rest on the currency question, and it
will soon pass out Of the political arena
1t Will, however, occupy a place in dis
cussion until gold and silver are coinet
on the same terms. A bill to effect thi,
will no doubt be put before the Hous,
soon after it meets; and will probabl,
be passed, unless the friends Of silve
differ. Already some of the silver adyo
Gates propose to have silver coined free a
gold is now coined. We think, however
they may change little, and favor tn
purchasing Of gold bullion and its coiI
age, as silver is now coined.
seems no more than right that the labo
OF turning gold bullion into coine
money, should be paid for and not give
away. When the mint ceases to col
gold bullion for nothing a greenbac
dollar will be able to buy enough gold
make gold dollar for about IS cent
This would put both metels on lev,
and restore just equality to silver miner

REPUDIATIoN IN MASSACHUSETTS,

repudiators. This charge was very fire.
quently and earnestly made in the Mas
sachusetts campaign against General
Benjamin F. Butler and his supporters.
This charge was either true or false. If
true, it is a little remarkable that repudi-
alton should have emanated and made
such remarkable progress in the State
from which the war on the South (that
caused the debt) emanated. Butler and
his allies were beaten by about 25,00C
majority. But Butler says he got more
votes than were cast for the present Gov.
ernor of Massachusetts,, and boasts Of the
zeal and energy of his party. 1t woult
he well for those who are opposed to re
pudiation to be careful how they max,
such charges. In fact the gold gambler
nave hurled the same charge at the grea
bulk of the Democratic party in th
Western States also. This was it'll
rough but we presume it was lie de
liperately made for the purpose OF pei
sonal gain, the sole controlling inhuenc

THE PART THAT LEGAL TENDERS WILL

WAsHINGToN, Nov. 4.-In an inter.
view with delegation uf Baltimore IL
ndnciers yesterday, Secretary Sherman
IN answer TO several leading question
gave the following answer:
The United States Will MAINTAIN its
notes at par in coin in all pats of the
United States, and will do SO by the re-
demption of such notes as are presented
to the Assistant Treas urer of New York.
and by the receipts of United States for
both customs duties and bonds. 1 think
this can De done without change of
the law, but as to this, Congress must be
the Judge. The Treasury will treat
Cnited States notes ana coin as an exact
equivalent in all transactions with tbs
Government, and then all business every
Where IN the United States will adap,
| Itself to he same standard.
