WASHINGTON, D c.. May "a, 70.
Sales of $40 certificates here as
elsewhere, are extraordinary brisk.
The certificates go, in nearly all
cases, to spectators. This seems
unavoidable. The Secretary Of the
Treasury, I believe, took all possible
precautions to allow the genuine
small investor to secure a chance
for investment, but even biz best en-
deavors were made to work against
him. Postmasters, for instance.
were allowed to give bond and
then receive certificates for s.le.
After it was found that the Ger
tiicates were worth more than par
spectators in this city, as, doubt
less in other cities, induced neigh
boring small possmaters to bond
and become agents. and bought in
advance ell the certificates these
postmasters could secure. The
postmasters got the government
allowance for sale Of certificates,

New Orleans Democrat.]
The committee on taxation hav-
ing decided in favor of making the
floating debt receivable for taxes.
and it being currently reported
that the comsiittes on bonded and
floating debt favors the conversion
of the floating debt into four per
cent currency bond, it would ap-
pear that there is some danger OF
a conflict between the two commit
tees. Both committees seem to
recognize the necessity of adopting
some means calculated to retire
these warrants, as they will continue
to be an incubus upon the credit Of
the State SO long as they are hawk
ed about the streets at deprecated
prices.
We have heard the suggestion
made, and we commend it to the
convention, that the valid warrants
could be converted into four per
cent currency bonds, and the
bonds be made receivable for delin-
quent taxes, thus meeting the views
of both committees.

A Sensible Suggestion.

The excitement of the colored
people in several parishes Of this
State over the Kansas exodus
should be a sufficient warning to
the planters that they must pre-
pare to receive the shock ut some
future time, if not at present. A
population SO easily cajoled and
deceived as are the culored people
may at any time or at any moment,
and for an imaginary cause ruin
the agricultural interest Of. this
country. The advancement and
the prosperity of this country de-
rends upon the stability of the la
boring classes. The land owner
cannot calculate upon profit. or
expect q substance from those who
till his lands, unless it is done with
system and not by class Of peo-
pie who ut any moment-perhaps
in the very midst Of q costly crop
would leave the country ard aban-
don their work.
There is remedy for such state
of things. This remedy lies in the
convention now sitting in New
Orleans. Let the convention en-
courage immigration-let them
create bureau for this purpose,
let u sum Of money be appropriated
for this and We will have found the
remedy all are now seeking. The
planter can as an individual assist
in this enterprise. lie should be
open handed and liberal in his
contributions. The country needs
hardy and sturdy immigrants, and
these can easily be secured If we
ouly go at it properly. And this is
the very best time to il.augurate
such Q movement.
The above views Of the Marks
vile Bulletin meet our hearty APP
preval. Everything possible ought
to be done to get reliable laborers
in the State. Then if the negroes
want to go to Kansas, let them go.
The State will not be the looser by
it, for none but those who have
potbing-the tramps-will go. No
well-.o-do negro is going to break
himself up to 60 to Kansas, and
these are the only kind we care to
have stay-the wealth producers,
who are Of benefit to themselves
and to the State.

and the spectators the profit Of
from one to two per cent on the
certificates sold. There are I'M
numbered ways of getting ahead Of
''the people" when the speculative
class desire to do so. All the GER
ti6cates will have been sent from
the treasury by the middle of next
week.
There is much talk Of final ad-
journment of Congress by the 10th
of June, On Monday the Legisla.
tive bill goes to the President, and
it will be returned ON Tuesday
with q veto probably. Then. al.
most without debate, the two
Houses will vote on the two ap.
preparation bills, stripped of al
other provisions. Both bills will
probably pass, though influences
now being brought by their con.
stituents upon Democratic mem
bers are adverse to the passage d
any appropriation bills whatever
at this session.
The Senate yesterday passed the
contagious disease act. The ap-
preparation was cut down, and an
amendment adopted that the ac'
