Last evening a gentleman Of this city
accidentally made most singular dis
coyery respecting the electrical influence
Of the ordinary morning-glory vines.
Seated near the lattice work over which
the vine was trained, his attention WAS
attracted to single little branch tipped
with growing line extending straight
out from the rest, and specialized within
himself whether the tiny hairs with
which the stem was clothed were not
placed there for the purpose of conduct
ing the electric fluid Of the atmosphere
to the plant. In order to continue his
investigation, he approached his finger
within a .r.lf an inch Of il, and was
amazed to observe Slight-almost inn
perceptible, yet unmistakable--motion
Of the stem. As he pushed his finger a
little nearer, the stem trembled very visi-
bly, and was seemingly attracted and
repealed from him. The hairs which ne
noticed before did not move, but re-
manned erect There was no wind Mt
the time, and the motion was purely an
induced one. After this interesting ex-
pertinent he placed the end Of his finger
within n short distance Of the growing
bud, and slowly moved it In a circular
direction. The stem followed the mo-
ton until il was bent i'm the shape Of =
letter G, and, when the finger was with
drawn, instantly regained it, former
straight position. This last experiment
was witnessed by several persons, all Of
whom tried il, with varying success

On the subject OF " Bcndholders and Bauk-

says: We believe that the national banks OF
the country have held about oue-sixth OF our
national debt. and have received about one
sixth of the fifteen hundred and eighty eight
millions paid cut as interest on the whole debt
since 1868. Now. if 1t was useful to make such
market and find such purchasers for the
bonds, then the banks to that extent have been
serviceable. And il IT is useful to prevent such
quantity of bonds as the banks hold from
being suddenly thrown on the market the
banks are still useful. That these banks have
supplied safe and flexible currency is. we
think, conceded. That the larI state and ma =
tional taxation on these associations keeps
their present dividends from being excessive
and fixes them at figure say of about SIX or
seven per centum annually is likewise general
IL believed. There Is no immediate prospect
OF extingushipg our whole national debt and
we do not see how the banks can be fairly said
to keep it in existence by making bonds their
basis OF business.

THE COMMUNE IN AMERICA.

Gen. VI. q. Hazen writes from Vienna to the
New York Tribune in this strain:
The real residum OF the war Is communism.
1t Is deeply rooted in human society, and ls as
ancient as humanity itself. 1t is the war OF
the poor against the rich. Our war taught the
unfortunate lesson OF the easy life Of gypsying,
which has given us the tramp, and resistance
to the decline in the stated price OF labor, as it
prices. give us the strike-and the two the
Commune. But it can get little footing and do
little harm to the United States. The people
are too intelligent and too many have . stake
in the ground. Too many know the true char
acter and sscredness OF money, no matter
whether earned yesterday or hundred years
ago. But If there are those who defy the law
d tempt TO paralyze the activities of the
country, there is scarcely doubt that they will
receive blow rightly administered, that for
one genei aior, at least, will cure the evil
While labor is respectable, it must be made as
productive as possible. 1t ia means and not
an end And while the laborer Is WORTHY,
drudgery for itself is not entitled TO protection.
Labor - a necessary sacrifice, out OF which
good comes, but mechanical contrivances which
save this sacrifice give freedom to human
hands for better thinge, and the raids upon
them because it is cheap, is opposed to human
ity.
In fairly distributed wealth. which alone can
give sufficient exemption from the exactions
OF life, necessary for the best culture, and the
most desired condition Of humanity, the United
States is advancing more rapidly and steadily
than any other country. Our homes are In
comparsbly superior IN comfort and conven-
FENCES TO those OF any other people. To our
women are given q broader life, better edo
cation; they are more respec. ed and honored
THAI any others in the world, and in return
they are truer wives and better mothers, while
our men are chivarous and generous; have
trust in their wives and love and content in
cir families. And Cur people have gained all
these advantages honorably, and are entitled
TO the consideration the world giyee.
ln making labor honorable, education uni
versA, place and social consideration free to
oil who show themselves worthy Of them, the
people have had the most powerful incentives
held out for them to do their very best, and
tue results could not fail TO be what they are.
h's probable our part in the progress of hu-
man development ia IN work ont for til O new
continent what Rome did for the old, with the
advantage OF her best experience, the later DIS
ceveries OF science. better religion, more
