The Funding Bill.

Congress is just now plunging about
IN the breakers and quirksn::,is Of \
huge financial scheme, Inc rctuuding
OF about six hundred lHi!lion dollars
of bonds, OF which about fourteen mil
lion wilt soon mature, and the bal
ancc, though not maturing, will be
rcdcrmablc ut the option Of the gov
crnmcnt. Two hundred million of
these bonds bear six per cent. interest,
and the balance five per cent, and as
our new four per cents command Il
premium OF from ten to twelve per
cent. ii is advisable to refund the
higlIcr interest bearing bonds as soon
~ possible. The chief question is
whether tho new bonds shall boar
three per cent. or three and half pcr
cent. Every ono agrees that II three
and half per cent. bond with rca-
sonAhle length Of time to run will
readily sell at, or above, par, and
many believe that u three per cent
bond will also command premium.
lhc best tinancicrs seem to doubt this.
Taking into account the premium ON
thc four per cent. bonds the lowest net
rate OF interest thnt has hccn secured
is about three and onc-Six;h per cent.
IL is almost incredible down hero
where money brings almost any rate
asked, tlat the issue Of six hundred
millions OF bonds at three or even
three and \ half per cent. should be
ront"mpl', with the expectation OF
foAtin:E ,hrM at par. 1t must be re-
mrmhrrcd, however, that these bonds
nr" exempt from taxation. and that
the average rate OF taxation OF all
kinlS on all property is said to be be-
tween two aud hnlf or three rrr
cent. This makes n nou-taxablr three
per cent. bond equivalent to an ordi-
nary inrrStmcnt Of five and half or
Sin per cent, a rate at which money
can readily DC obtaincdat the great cen.
tres on such security rs tho United
States offers.
St'i! another proposition is not tc
refund AZ Il long time. say from twelve
to twenty years, but to apply the sur
plus revenue amounting, it is estimate
Ell, to ninety millions n year. to the re-
dcmption Of the outstanding bonds
thus retiring them in six or scvc,
years.
Another scheme is to issue four hun
drcd millions ut three per cent, ma
turing IN thirty years, but rcdecmabl,
III ton years, and to issue two b"udrc,
and fifty million dollars in treasur,
notes at three and half per cent. t,
bc used by National Banks for rrserv,
and security purposes. And lastl,
comes the ot(-repcatcd proposition t,
pay OF the bonds in tho dollars Of on,
daddics.
or all these plans ii is thought tha
Congress will finally agree to issu,
bonds for short time Mt three and ,
half per cont. An the Democrats an(
some Republicans desire to diminisl
the debt as rapidly as possible. Al
ready tho reduction has been phcnomc
nal, and il tho present prosperity con
tinucs thHrc is no reason why all thcs,
six hundred millions should not b,
wiped out in fGw years. The United
States is the financial wonder Of III,
world.

THE OVTH LEGISLATURE.

The Legislature whose labors were
ended at noon yesterday by the gavel
of President of the Senate Hobart
will be long remembered as one OF
the ablest, fairest and cleanest bodies
ever assent lie in this state. 1t has
killed every job for robbing the
people which has been brought be-
fore it. It contained some of the
ablest minds in the state. It proved
its fairness by giving the fullest and
most careful consideration to every
measure of Importance introduced
during the session.
But the one act which will be es-
pecially remembered as indicative Of
the liberal and progressive spirit
with which its members were imbued
is its enactment of Senator Young
hoods just and equitable educational
bill.
Taken for all in all, the Legislature
of 81 was body whose acts have
done the state and its reputation in
finite good and of which every Jer-
seyman may we'll be proud.

Shall We Meet AgainS

The following is one Of the most brill
liant paragraphs ever written by the la
mented George d Prentice: The fiat
of death memorable. There is no ap-
peal for relief from the great law which
dooms US to dust. We flourish and fade
as the leaves of the forest, end the flow
ers that bloom, wither and fade in day
have no Trailer hold upon life than the
mightiest monarch that ever shock the
earth with his footsteps. Generations
of men will appear and disappear as the
grass, and the multitude that throng the
world ted y will disappear as footsteps
on the shore. Men seldom think Of the
great event of death until the shadow
fail across their own pathway, hiding
from their eyes the faces OF loved ones
whose living smile was the sunlight OF
fheir existence. Death is the aDtagOp-
ist of life, and the thought of the tomb
is the skeleton Of all fea-ts. We do not
want to go through the dark valley, al
though the dark passage may lead to
paradise; we do not want to go down
luIO odhlk SIhNCCs SfSA Wibh PtihSNo
for bed-fellows. In the beautiful
drama of lion" the hope OF Immortality,
so eoquently uttered by the death de-
voted Greek, finds deep response in
every thoughtful soul. When about to
Weld his life a sacrifice to fate, mis-
Clemanthe asks if they should meet
again, to which he responds: Il have
asked that dreadful question of the hills
that look eternal-Cf the clear streams
that flow forever-of stars among whose
fields of azure my raised spirits have
walked in glory. All are dumb. But.
as gaze upon thy living face, ! feel
that there is something in love that
NANTES through its beauty that cannot
wholly per sh. We shall meet again,
Clemanthe."

TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION is a good
thing in its way, but such enactments
as that of the Kansas Legislature,
providing that "any minister who
administers wine at the communion
table shall be punished by two years
imprisonment in the penitentiary, "
are the very height of absurdity and
will in the end produce a reaction in
public sentiment that will do the
temperance cause greater harm than
hundred such laws can do it good.

A boat shoots past, with gay, merry
party on board, singing; and the sound OF
their voices comes sweetly over the water.
Humphrey and I are very quiet. The
twilight is settling down dim and gray and
the glory has died out In the west. The
lights on shore glitter and twinkle, and
the stars are peeping out in the eternal
blue above. There Is great rest over land
and sea, and wonder II this feeling of UNI
rest will ever die out in my heart and give
place to the great contentment that reign
ed before.
The boat just then CRATES upon the shin
T, gle and my husband lifts me out.
81 am afraid you are tired" is all he
says, in his usual tone, as If half an hour
ago, we had not laid our hearts bare to
each other and showed the pain and long
ing there
81 am not tired" l answer gravely, and
let him draw my hand through his arm,
and hold it there in the hollow Of his broad
palm.
"Are we to go mackerel.fshing to-mor-
row."
| put the question with an afectation
of cheerful interest in the morrow, and
Humphrey Is deceived by the carelessness
Of my tone.
.sOf course, If You care about it," he
answers cheerfully, and stops to give di-
rections to the fisherman about lines and
bait.
Then we proceed slowly homeward; and
| laugh and talk far more than Humphrey,
and speak of the prospect of the morrow's
fishing with seemingly much enjoyment In
the anticipation thereof.
