BANxRUPT Law.

There is a strong sentiment in favor
of Congress, at its next session, adopt
ing fair and practical national bank
rupt law; a subcommittee Of that body
are at present engaged upon the sub
ject. The west and south arc repre-
sented on this committee by members
from Arkansas, Minnesota and Kan
sas. The English parliament is en-
gagged also on the.same subject. Prom
inent IN the British scheme of improve
ment il the abolition of the alternative
process of liquidation and composition,
and the substitution Of a single pro-
cess of bankruptcy. In every instance
n public official is 10 make mvestiga-
lion, there will also be official control
of the creditors and treasurcrs elected
by the creditors. or, if the creditors
desire it, the officials themselves will
wind up affairs. In this country the
operation of the statute law does not
generally prove acceptable; it is found
that the dishonest bankrupt has too
many facilities at HE disposal, That
Justice should be tempered with mercy,
and that the unfortunate bankrupt
should receive consideration, is evil
dent, but encouragement for fraud or
facility for acting dishonesty must not
be permitted. To allow the cunning
to perpetrate their thefts under cover
of the law is to vitiates the morals Of
commerce, and to substitute trickery
for fair dealing, which is a premium
upon crime and encouragement and
obstruction to fair dealing and integ
rity. The influence of bankrupt
law on the morals of the commercial
world Is very great, and every citizen
who desires justice to prevail and the
good character of the country to be
preserved, will give his support to a
Just and equitable bankrupt law,
which shall favor neither the grasping,
morcilcss creditor, nor the unprinci
pied debtor who "fails for the purpose
of making his fortune - En-.

COMPARISONS have been instituted be-
tween Parnell and Daniel O'Connell. 1t
appears that the great Daniel was the
greater in oratory, since Parnell is no
orator at all. But Parnell is the better
statesman and organizer. His organi-
zation Of the land league is an almost
perfect system. 1t is not one great
body, such as they had in O'Connell's
time. but il is rather a federation Of
local clubs working harmoniously TO q
common end. In old days the British
government broke up Irish movements
by arresting the leaders and capturing
their books and papers. Now the ar
rest of Parnell, nor the arrest Of Healy,
Sexton and Dillon, will break up the
land league; it will live as long as the
local clubs survive. The English gov
eminent realizes this and hence the re-
markable efforts now being put forth
to crush the movement.
