As the Wind blows.

The wind blows north tho wind blows south,
The wind blows east aud west;
No matter how the free wind blow,
Some ship W II fnd 1t hest;
SOnr one ont on the wide, wide sea
shouts with happy air,
Hol shipmates, no set all the sails,
The wind is blowing fair"
one ship sails ont into the east,
Another to the west;
One has to struggle fierce and hard,
BY winds and waves oppressed,
Under bare masts. tossed 10 and fro,
BY rain aud salt spray wet;
The other flies before the gale
With all her white sails set.
40 Wind o wind, why dost thou blow,
Aud out to ocean roar,
When would steer my little bark
Toward som pleasant shorer
What honor will IL be to thee
If down beneath the wave
Ny simple craft aud shall find
cold, forgotten gravel"
o foolish one, why wilt thou steer
Against the mighty gale?
There are ten thousand ships ahoat
Besides thy tiny sail.
II thou would float Ger pleasant seas,
Oppose my will 10 more:
When blow shorcwarl, then do thou
Sail also to the shore
"Yet II thy will with mine must strive,

Against my might set all thy skill,
Ana rslt me like u man.
Stand by the wheel steer steadily,
Keep watch above, below:
Such hearts will make the ports they seek,
No matter what winds blow"

TIE FRENCH sPOLIAT1ON CLAIMS.

Is it too much to hope that the present Con-
grcss will take the first step toward final
disposition of the French SpOation Claims
1t ought not to be- but the remarkable history
of the claims shows nothing moro fOrcibly
than that Justice which waits on Congressional
action is most uncOmmonly slow. These claims
were made first in the year $500 by American
citizens whose vessels had been cOnfiscated by
the French between 1892 and 1901. Sim
liar claims against Great Britain, Spain,
Denmark, Mexico and other nations were paid
years ago, but these, in every way as just as
the others, have been allowed to drag on from
Congress to Congress until they are nearly a
century old. Twenty-four reports on them
have been made to the Senate, all but one OF
which were favorable. Nineteen reports have
been made to the House, all but two of which
were favorable. The Senate has passed six bills
in favor of payment, and the House concurred
in two. One of these was vetoed by President
Polk, and the other by President Pierce. Senator
Sumner was profoundly interested in the claims,
and in January, 1870, presented very elab-
crate report to the Senate upon them, refut-
ing successfully all the arguments which the
yctong Presidents and others had made
ment. He brought the subject up many times,
but failed to secure action chiefly because OF
general indifference on the subject.
At the present session the question has been
brought up in new form. Heretofore the
measures proposed have provided for Com
mission to hear and determine the claims, and
to make awards not exceeding in amount
five million dollars. There are now bills
before both House and Senate which refer the
claims to the Court of Claims for decision.
All claimants must apply to the court by petit
ton within two years after the passage OF
the act, or be forever barred, and the court is
directed to report to Congress for final action,
each year in December, its conclusions in all
cases. Right is granted to the claimants of
appeal to the Supreme Court Of the United
States. This seems to us to be the most desir-
able and the quickest way of reaching decls-
ion. The claims have already Outlived several
generations of claimants, but they are as just
now as they were eighty years ago. There Is
no reason why decision should be longer
delayed while there is every reason why II
should be reached as soon as possible.

NETWORK DAILY TRIBUNE. MONDAY, MAY 15 1882

the Treasury in order to make Department OIL
Agriculture effective would enable one or two
good Journals to do ncomparably more service.
The farmers pay at least half the money that
GOES out OF the Treasury, and they get IN
bureau reports useless essays, inadequate com
pilations and inaccurate statistics. Journalists
could be found who would give them better
service for half the money.
The Bureau Of Agriculture has legitimate
and useful function, in which it ought to be
strengthened without stint or hesitation. 1t
ought to have at command much more means
for the employment of scientific men OF high
standing, so that problems OF Importance to
agriculture could be more promptly and
thoroughly investigated. 1t ought to have at
command means enough for some experiments
in culture and for intelligent examination OF
the methods OF culture in other lands. The
Government might well spend in these direc-
tons millions that are now wasted in unneces-
sary public buildings the so-called I'M
provcment of unnavigable creeks. But 1t
would not be a step in the right direction to
SET ND two organizations of officials and clerks,
instead of one, to collect statistics. 1t would
not be a step in the right direction to go into
competition with agricultural journals In the
publication of news. Nor would it make the
Department more efficient to provide that Its
head should be selected, like other Cabinet
officers, for political reasons.

February. unless Congress consents to protect
the public welfare first, and to dispute ABOUT
theories of banking afterward The violent
contraction of currency and the sale OF vast
amount of bonds at one time, would so depress
the price that banks will not choose to incur
the loss. Many of them, if they see that
proper legislation is likely to fail at tins ses-
sion, will be apt to sell bonds and surrender
circulation at once. The Democrats who are
making this bill the football of partisanship
might about as well be playing with nitro
glycerine. They know that they do not dare
to bring panic upon the country by destroy
ing the banking system. The danger IS that
that they may do so in sheer ignorance, while
striving to satisfy the Statc-rights notions
and disloyal preiudfces of their followers.

GEORGIA BOURBONISM IN PEEL.

The proposition of the Georgia Independents
to make the Hon. Alexander II. Stephens their
candidate for Governor is an admirable one.
His nomination and consent to stand would
certainly be followed by his election, and the
first fruit of that election would be the over
throw of Bourbon domination il the State.
Mr.. Stephens is peculiarly fitted Tor this great
service to his State. While he has always been
Democrat, he has never allowed his PARTISAN
ship to override his patriotic instincts. HIS
persistent and eloquent opposition to secession,
so long as opposition was possible, is remem-
bered by everyone His subsequent record in
Congress has been notable for many instances
of outspoken protest against the suicidal par
tisanship of the Democracy. His remark about
the long and disgraceful extra session night
with President Hayes, that it was certain to
end either in farce or tragedy; his previous
remarks about the absurd attempt to dispute
the validity of President Hayes's title that no
President had ever had clearer title, and his
frequent refusals TO be bound by the dctum
of the caucus, have shown him to be one of the
few Democrats in the country to-day who re-
ccgnize the right of conscience to control poitl-
cal action.
OF course in nominating Mr.. Stephens the
Indcpendents will have to sacrifice the claims
of some of their own number, but the cause is
deserving of sacrifice. Their object is success,
and they can more surely attain that with Mr..
Stephens than with anyone else. He has in
timated that while lie wonld prefer to have the
regular Democratic nomination, he would not
decline that of the Independents. Congress
man Speer, in an interview with our Washing
ton correspondent which we publish else
where, thinks it likely that the Democrats will
accept Mr.. Stephens rs their candidate if he is
first nominated Ivy the Independents at their
mass convention in June, but he Is sure Mr..
Stephens can be elected whether they accept
him or not. lie says the BOurbons do not like
him, but that he would draw the larger part of
! the white and all the colOred vote. Here are
! ample reasons for his nomination. a Den o.
crat who is dstrusted by the Bourbons and has
won the confidence of the cOlored people can
| be depended upon to administer the affairs OF
! Georgia in IA patriotic and statcsmaniike man
ner. and that would be "A death-blow to Bour-
bonism. Some interesting revelations which
Mr.. Specr makes concerning the character OF
! Georgia Bourbonism are sufficient to show any
| one that any candidate whose nomination prom
ises to stamp out that infamous institution
deserves the support of every patriotic citizen.

MONEY md BUSINESS.

The bank statement of Saturday revealed a
smaller loss of specie than had been generally
expected, partly because most people had
carelessly supposed that the full effect of the
gold exports made during the week would APP
pear in the averages. In reality, though the
amount of gold exported was SO, 40, 900, the
effect in bank averages could not have been
more than about 81, 500, 600. and the actual con-
diton at the end of the week, as respects specie,
was less favorable by about Sl,6l0,O0O than
the averages indicated. As the effect of Treas
ury operations was to add only $4,000 to
bank averages, the statement shows that nearly
500. 600 in gold went out of the city to the
interior The persstency of this drain of gold
to the country is one of the noteworthy features
of current financial history. But large receipts
of legal tenders compensated for half the loss
to the interior and by exports. The currency
average gained 1882, 800, and would have
gained 81 g., 900 more, but for the increase in
currency balances in the Treasury, so that
So, O94, 600 in currency came i'll from the inte-
rior. While opinions differ widely as to the
amount of gold that is likely to go abroad,
the fact that the Bank of England has lost
1850, 900 in bullion within two weeks shows
In Germany and France, reserves are still in
creasing
The Treasury has been discussing very freely
for bonds since May l, but its receipts have
almost exactly equalled its payments at this
point Deducting receipts from the mint,
the Treasury balances have been decreased
only $lG6, GS1 since April %. Yet the Treas
ury has paid out within that time $3.50 $50
for bonds redeemed. considerable part of
the money goes 10y draft or check directly TO
the owners of bonds in different parts OF the
country, and is felt at this point only III some
dninution of the demand for money in the
interior. During the first week of May, the
lO9th call for $5,000,000 matured and
S3.OGS, 700 of these bonds were redeemed,
besides $500. 500 of the older calls, in all
$l,OG1, 800. Last week the 110th call ma
tured, and So, 1O7. 800 of the bonds covered
thereby had been redeemed at the close of
business on Saturday, besides $743, 900 of the
1O9th call, and $G7I,300 of the older calls,
in all $I,525,250 during the week. And yet,
exclusive of transfers, the receipts of the Treas
ury here until Saturday were within about
500 900 of all payments here. The calls for
bonds therefore, barely serve to return to the
market the amount taken from 1t by taxation
in excess of public expenditures. After the
call for s., 900, 600 maturing Wednesday next
no other call Will mature until June 7, so that
the surplus revenue will be accumuating in
the Treasury during three weeks. If the ex-
ports of gold continue at the same time, severe
monetary pressure may result, especially il
surrender of bank circulation also continues
The amount surrendered by banks during last
week was nearly $l,OOO,OOO, notwithstand,
ing n small increase i'll this city.

Thurber declined in advance of being offered the
