What ID Costs 10 be a Senator.
Disgusting DeadhPadfsnl.

Wash. Letter in Brooklyn Union-Argus.l
| can not save any of my salary"
said Senator Lamar to your CORE
spondent to-day. at is impossible.
| never paid a cent beyond livery hire
and a few little kindred items of cleo
ton expenses, in my life, and | have
been in politics a long time. / could
save a thcrsand dollars a year if /
would do certain things, but | do not
think my conscience would be salts
fed if | did. For instance. l pay
about $500 a year for newspapers. |
like to read them. | have passes over
railroads. | could travel all over the
United States free. But | pay my
fare. 1t costs me $57 apiece for my
family every time / come and 90 be-
tween here and home. | have tele-
graph passes. | never use them. |
do not think it would be right. | can
send anything | please over the ex-
press lines, yet | pay my express bills.
| spend my salary and never have
any money. Some senators use all
these privileges of deadheading, and
they say it is right. l think other
wise. But there is one thing [ think
should be done, and | shall propose it
as soon as | can get a chance. Every
senator should have a private secre-
tary. lie has more correspondence,
committee work, etc. than he can do.
And each senator should be allowed a
private secretary. The senator gets
$4,000 a year, and can not support his
family in keeping with his position
and employ a private secretary ON that
sum-" The conscience of this senator
should be embalmed. If you were
here and saw a carload Of deadheads
in the street cars when congress ad-
%journs you would be disguised. They
haul out cards and give their names
each time to a Y FIVE cents. / paid
my fare one day, and the conductor
told me it was the only fare he got.
though the car was crowded and |
was standing on the rear platform.
The car was full of congressman.
This incident is a fact that the people
should know.

COMMERCIAL.
PgBLIo LEDGER 0FFIcE,
MEMPHIS, January %, 1879

In banking circles a fair activity pre-
walls. The leading business is in
Eastern exchange, there being a very
slack demand for discounts, In fact,
the mercantile paper offering is next to
nothing. Currency is in good supply
and the banks would be happy to put
out a portion of their surplus at fair
rates. Prime commercial paper can
be readily placed at 8 per cent, none
ranging higher than 10 per cent. Ex-
%ceptional paper or choice securities
would secure loans as low as 6 per
cent.
Eastern cotton bills offer freely,
while a moderate demand prevails
for checks on New York. Rates are
steady as follows: Demand bills
On New York and sight on New Eng
land are taken by the banks at &c dis
count, or So 70 per thousand, and lc
discount on points beyond New York.
Checks on the latter point are sold at
par. New Orleans rates are lc dis
count buying and par selling. Time
drafts Of from three to eight days sight
are at s@4c discount.
Nearly $4,000 was taken in at the
tax collectors office yesterday. But
two days remain after the present to
settle tax accounts minus a penalty of
4 per cent. and 80 cents added to pay
collection fees; hence an active bust
mess is carried on at the State, county
and city tax Office. Scrips suitable
for settling tax bills are in request.
These and other local securities are
quoted at the following prices, values
being mainly nominal, aside from tax
scrips, for want Of transactions
