Interesting Sights at the Federal
Treasury.

One of the most interesting parts of
the hideous old Treasury building is the
vault In which are stored the bonds held
to secure the circulation of the national
banks. The vault is about ten feet
square and fourteen feet high; it now
contains about 1915, 600. 600 IN registered
bonds, larger amount of wealth than
is stored in one place in any other build
ing in the world The cash vault, in
which the money used in daily transac
tions is kept, contained about 81 ,0O0. 900
in gold, silver and paper, but it looked
poor and insignificant after the vast
affluence of the bond vault.
The bureau for the redemption of
worn and mutilated currency is quite in
teresting to visitors. When | went
through it a number of young ladies
were engaged in an effort to count the
notes burned to a crisp by the burning
of an express car and mail car in New
York one night last week. The curren-
cy looked like pile of black ashes, but
somehow the keen eyes and def fingers
of the experts could make out its de-
nomination and reckon its amount
without much seeming difficulty. In
this connection it may not be amiss
to dispel q popular delusion regard
ing the Treasury girls so fire.

Pensions for Southern Soldiers and
SeAmen.


Editor Morning NesoS: AS one of the
veterans of the Mexican war, thank
you for the patriotic view of our case
taken by you in your article headed "A
Laudable Proposition" in this mornings
News; and hope the Pennsylvania Legis-
lature will carry out its intentions to
pension the Mexican veterans from that
State. hope, too, to hear that one Of
the Southern Legislatures is considering
an act to pension. with half pay at least,
the officers of the army and navy of the
United States who resigned from them
to cast their lots in with their native
State in the late civil war.
These men had, with few exceptions,
nothing but their swords and their COM
missions, which they unhesitatingly laid
upon the altar of patriotism, giving up
rank, position and income, at the call of
their States. When the war ended they
had 20 places or previous civil employ
ments to fall back upon. Othello's Cccu-
patton was gone, and they were left out
in the cold to shiver and starve by them
selves. A few had friends to help them,
but the most had not, and their strug
giles and sufferings have been fearful.
Yet have they never complained. For
few years the Southern States and
people were in no condition to
do much, if anything, for these
unfortunates, but for some years there
has been no excuse for further neglect
OF them, and the only reason that can be
offered for it at all is forgetfulness.
The Pennsylvania Legislature in adj
ministering to the United States ''sting-
ing reproach" reminds us of our duty
to our officers. The annual cost to each
Southern State will be trife, not more
than on an average of $25, 900 to $50, 900
in all, and as time advances this amount
will decrease year by year. The
Northern people have taken care
Of their soldiers and sailors, and
why should we be outdone by
them in the obligations of gratitude
and duty? The condition of the naval
officers was of peculiar hardship, as the
underwriters of the Northern CONNER
cial cities passed a resolution to under
write no vessel commanded by naval
officer who had resigned to take part in
1.-The rebellion" they styled
the civil war. Within our knowledge,
the naval officers who had been promised
vessels by Northern mercantile friends,
were sorrowfully turned adrift again, by
their refusal to underwrite them under
their command. Justice requires that
something should be done for these I'M
selfish sons of the Southern States.

Preaching the tIOspel with a CrapE


A Methodist minister in New York
has gone into the business of preaching
the gospel of peace so as by crank. Ar
illustrated sermon he calls his combina-
ton of text and picture, and as humanity
has not lost its taste for the pictorial,
even the unartistic pictorial, he il
likely to draw quite as well
as an itinerant panorama. The modus
operandi is this: The divine blessing
having been invoked, the preacher turns
the crank of his machine, and where there
was nothing but white sheet in black
frame there appears Lazarus sitting at TIE
steps of Dives palace. The dogs are there,
and Dives, and Dives supercilious ser
wants. The minister points them all out
with long wooden stick, and then ex.
plains the parable. This having been done
effectively, turn goes the crank.
Exit Lazarus and his sores.
Enter somebody else named in
the good book. The last scene
of all was, not appropriately, if the
orthodox idea may be followed, the
burning of the world. Under the
picture were the words: "The End
of the World. " Across the globe were
streaks of cloud. Yellow puffs of
flame seemed to be bursting from the
globe at irregular intervals, and
beneath it burned a great fire as
though beneath a gigantic kettle. ''The
atmosphere around this globe when it
burns up" said the preacher, twill be as
infammable as the gas we burn. The
ocean by slight chemical change will
seethe and roar in combustion, and
everything shall be consumed. When
the earth is burned" he asked, would
any of the congregation like to be the
tares that then shall be burned p As a
great moral show this certainly exceeds
Barnum.

An Unfortunate Issue.

Hayes veto of the refunding bill which
proposed to save the country from twelve
to fifteen million dollars per annum IN
the way Of taxes, TO pay the interest on
the national debt, undoubtedly makes
the direct issue whether the public SHAH
submit to the dictation of the national
hanks. or whether they shall rule the
hanks. The vetoed measure was one
which had been exhaustively discussed
in both houses of Congress, was mus
putably wise, necessary ana oene
fetal TO the entire country, ana
had been strongly recommended
by the Treasury Department. IL "oulu'
therefore. have been the part OF WISDOM
in Mr. HAYES to have at least alio"eu
the law TO be tested, especially as us
failure would have proven fatai DO"
to the Democratic party. to which he is
so bitterly opposed. Yet he ignored all
the benefits. political and economical,
which the law would have conferred,
and listened only to the threats and
clamors of the banks.
Our St. Louis contemporary, the Re
publican, thinks that it is deeply to be
regretted that a silly executive has thus
flung the national bank system in the
face of the people. There was not the
shadow of occasion for it. The country
does not desire the issue. The system
possesses many recognized and admitted
virtues, and Notwithstanding the repeat
ed intermeddlings of the New York
banks with legislation in Congress-in-
termeddlings which the banks outside of
the metropolis rarely take part in-the
people were inclined to let them alone.
But Mr.. Hayes has forced the undesired
and unwelcome issue on the coun-
try. He has made the national
banks the solitary obstruction to a
refunding of one-third the national debt
at saving of fifteen millions year. The
national. bank system, which no one in
or out of Congress was assailing, is the
beginning, middle and end of the veto
message. 1t defends the banks before
they were attacked, and compels the
country against its consent to hold them
responsible for the defeat of timely,
necessary and well-considered legisla-
ton. There is no intelligent national
banker who will not deplore this wanton
precipitation of quarrel which the
banks themselves have most reason for
desiring to avoid; for in the laundering
way in which the veto message presents
the issue it is not the supporters of the
nstional banking system against its OPP
ponents, but the national banks against
the country.
