senator GOrdOn's scheme to Fund POr
ton of the National Debt In
similar Bonds.

Especial to the Democrat
WASHINGTON, April 21.--Gen. Gordon, who
may be called the inventor OF the financial
scheme OF currency bonds, is 50 much en-
couraged by it's success in Georgia that he fs
preparing and will soon Introduce bill pro-
vidtng for funding, in similar currency bonds,
all that portion Of the national debt which
bears more than per cent interest and
cal year of 1880. All funding operations are
necessarily at an end for the present, because
no more bonds can be called until the end of
the next fiscal year. This state of affairs Is
due to the activity Of John Sherman and the
syndicate, who have for the last six months
been taking every advantage OF the condition
Of the money market here and In Europe to
force their per cent bonds into the market,
and the last batch Of $1S9,000,0O0 exhausted
the call OF maturing bonds.
Mr.. Gordon says the lull In the funding
operations from now until 1881 will give
ample time for discussion and examination
Of his measure, and he has no doubt Of its
ultimate success. He is anxious to see the
experiment tried In Louisiana, and thinks it's
success would be as great as in Georgia. He

THE y. .. SUPREME COURT.
WASHINGTON, April Il. -- In the United
States Supreme Court to-day Judge Story
rendered the decision in the case Of Platt VS..
the Union Pacific Railroad concerning rights
OF settlers. The decree of the lower court In
favor OF the railroad was affirmed, which de-
cision reverses the decision made by the Sec
retary Of the Interior last year. Judges
Bradley, Miller and Clifford dissented.
A CALL FOR BONDS.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-The Treasury De-
partment will now redeem the called bonds
embraced In the eighty-fourtha and eighty-ffth
calls, paying interest to the date Of redemp-
ton, or 1t will redeem ut once the bonds in
cluded In said calls with interest to date OF
maturity, and apply the proceeds to the pay
ment Of any subscription for per cent con-
soils.
The following are the numbers Of bonds
called to-day, all of which are registered
bonds: $50, Nos. 1451 to 1878; 500, Nos. i, ,1O1
to II 732; $500. Nos. 7101 to 1902; $1,000, Nos.

$4,000, Nos. "a 7O1 to 27,570, all inclusive. The
bonds outstanding and represented by the
above mentioned numbers constitute the resi-
due of those issued under an act OF March 81,
1864, and are the 1910 bonds.

LONDON, April 21.-The full text of the
papers which passed between the Khedive and
the English and French commissioners and
their respective governments and the Khe-
dive and the Sultan is now at hand and clear
view Of the Egyptian crisis is thus obtained.
It tappears that the position taken at the out
set in these dispatches was correct, viz: That
neither England nor France separately, Or
either of them singly, nor the Sultan alone or
In conjunction with either England or France,
or both, would undertake to coerce the
Viceroy in his action. No sooner
was the purpose of the Khedive generally un-
derstood than manifestations of and approval,
came from all parts OF the kingdom. A pc
tition in support Of the Viceroy's plan for the
adjustment Of the finances, especially in re-
iation to the floating debt, was presented to
the Vieeroy, signed by great land owners,
members of the native parliament, the Coptic
Patriarch. the pashas, ulemas and chief rabbi.
No more thorough Egyptian alliance against
foreign interference is imaginable. All this
met with the approval Of the Sultan, notwith-
standing the rumors circulated from French
and English sources that the Porte would not
only be found in oppositin, but would prob

GERMANY.
How Rlsmarck's Protective Tariff IL lie
garded.

BERLIN, April 2i.-The political economical
situation In Germany has become highly In
.teresting. The new policy proposed by Prince
Bismarck respecting the protection OF the
agricultural Industries OF the country meets
with great opposition among some OF the
manufacturers and Is approved with equal
zeal by most OF the agricultural classes. The
working classes are violently opposed to 1t.
The bill was prepared by commission pre-
sided over by Baron Won Vambuhler. It
does not conform to Prince Bismarck's origf-
nal proposition as enunciated In his letter last
December, namely that there should be no
free list, but that all articles Of consump-
tlon and use imported into the empire
should bear their shares of impost duties. 1t
has free list although not a large one, and
1t taxes many articles very heavily. The
present duty on tea, coffee, petroleum and
wine are Increased. Iron, which has been on
the free list for two years. is to pay q duty,
and a duty Is imposed on all imported bread
stuffs and provisions, wood, tobacco, lard and
cattle. The conflict OF interests Is warm. The
municipal authorities OF Berlin and OF sea-
port towns are strongly opposed to the whole
measure as 1t stands, and the workingmen's 3
societies and Industrial associations have de-
cided that free importation OF all articles OF
prime necessity should be permitted. The
agricultural interests and certain of the man.
ufacturers are the only ones who appear to be
in favor OF the bill The discussion upon it
will begin in Rechstag on Thursday May 1.

That FRAUD.-In Europe for a King

before him in the regular way,
is considered the very height Of
impropriety, In this country Mr..
Hayes, as soon as legislation on any
subject is commenced in Congress, be.
gins TO frame veto. He does not
wait for the bill TO come before him
regularly he gets copy and then
commences to write out his objections.

questions of Legislation before thew
