would ask to have the bill taken up Wednes-
dsy
Senator Allison introduced bill to pre-
vide fund for the redemption of
United States bonds, and for other purposes.
1t provides that maximum reserve fund
not exceeding 100000 shall be set apart
in the treasury for the sole purpose Of re-
deemiDg United States notes, three-fourths of
which shall be in gold coin and bullion, and
the remainder in standard silver dollars.
Any holder of gold coin may deposit the
same with the treasurer Of the United States
in sums of not less than twenty dollars and
receive therefor gold certificates of not less
than twenty dollars each, corresponding with
the denominations of United States notes.
The coin deposited or representing certificates
shall be retained in the treasury for the
payment of the same on demand. The GER
ti6cates shall be receivable for customs,
taxes and all public dues, and when so re-
ceived may be reissued-such certificates
and certificates issued under authority of
the standard silver dollar act of February,
1878, may be counted as part OF the lawful
money reserve of the nation at the banks,
and may be accepted in the settlement OF
bal ances. The bill also pro-
vides that gold and silver certificates shall
not be issued when the reserve fund falls be-
low S120,0C0,000, or until it is reported to
that amount. The bill was referred to the
Finauc; Committee.
After the morning business the Senate re-
sumed the consideration of the Sherman
three per cent bill, and Senator Sherman
proceeded to close the debate. In reference
to the Vest amendment providing that three
per cent. bonds shall be the only bonds used
by the national banks as basis for their cur
rency, which is the Carlisle amendment
which was added to the funding bill passed
by the last Congress and vetoed by the presi-
dent Senator Sherman declared that the
Vest amendment was drive at the national
banks, and that it virtually confessed a want
Of confidence in the three per cent. bonds;
that it is move to compel the national
banks to take these bonds, thereby implying
on the part OF the supporters OF the amend
ment that they have no faith in the three
per cent. bond. Senator Sherman criticised
the other amendments offered to the bill, and
proceeded to show how they would operate
sadvantageously.
The vote being taken on the pending
motion to lay the funding bill on the table,
it was lost-yeas, %; nays, 45.
The Senate went into executive session and
adjourned till tomorrow.

Our Cotton Exchange very considerably
calls the attention of the banks, insurance
companies, manufacturers and merchants
generally to the fact that it is now the only
organized body existing that represents the
interests and trade of Memphis, and there
fore invites them to join the organization, so
as to increase its efficiency and strengthen its
influence. Memphis certainly needs
broader basis for expressing its views and
advocating its claims than the organization
of a single branch of its trade allows. 1t
will be most advantageous if other lines can
be represented. The present exchange is
entirely concerned in cotton interests, and
permanently TO retain other branches would
require arrangements by which other lines Of
business paying the same as the cotton trade
would receive equivalent advantages. Thus
modified we should have trade body which
collectively would be of incslculsble sdvan-
tage to the city-it is, indeed, the very thing
that Is wanted.

THE secret is out why Guiteau's counsel
made a speech so incredibly tiresome and SO
proyokingly long. The delay ho thus OBJ
tanned made it impossible to execute the
assassin until June or July, as the law re-
quires that execution OF a sentence shall not
take place until more than thirty days after
the close of the next appellate term of the
court. The long speech kept back the pos
sible time OF passing sentence, 30 as to make
"next term" begin in April, instead OF with
the close of the term then existing.

sOciatiOu.

CHICAGO, January 26.-The Woman's
Evangelical Temperance Association is
claiming public attention by scattering
broadcast circulars, and seeks to be a new
departure in the woman's temperance work.
The practical difference between the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union, an old
established society, with three thousand
local auxiliaries, and the new claimant, as
vet in embryo, seems TO be between State
rights for which the older society contends
in its work, and centralizing policy ami
mating the new venture, which rules out GER
tain lines of effort that some States prefer to
include among their varied methods.
