TI,E lfILK IN THE cocoANrr

In the single state Of New York there are
l27 savings.banks, and on the 1st of July
they hadin their keeping nearly s400 900, 600.
Twenty-Five Of these banks are in the city of
New York, and held s2l9, ,000,000 of the
above amount, an increase for them during
six months Of more than eight millions. An
idea of their operations may be gained from
the Bank for Savings in Bleecker street. 1t
had on the lst Of July the vast number Of
l03, ,254 depositors, an increase during the
six months since January of 1880 accounts.
It's total resources, putting its stock invest
ments at market value, were over forty y.two
millions of dollars, of which sum about
thirty.six millions were due depositors,
leaving a surplus of more than six millions.
1t received deposits of over four and a half
millions during the six months, and about
three and three-quarter millions were with
drawn from it. Besides, 1t paid and credited
in interest on deposits, at the rate of four
per cent, over a million and three.quarters.
The sum of the deposits exceeded the sum
drawn out by s7sl, ,22l IS, and the amount
due depositors increased by 81 ,435, ,09s.A,
showing that a very large share of the interest
paid in July was not taken out, but left to
swell the principal. The average of each
account was $3.50. All this is in the face Of
not very good times, prolonged strikes among
many of the working classes, high prices for
provisions, and very general dstrust of
such institutions bred ofscandalous exposures
of their mismanagement, especially in and
around New York. From it may be gained
some idea of the advsability OF postal saw
ings-banks, and the success which they
would instantly attain. The whole national
debt now available for funding we believe
would be ahsoi bed by them, and either at
much lower rates than at present or with the
satisfaction of knowing that the millions of
interest were going TO poor and humble de
positors, and not to the Vanderbilts, Sages.
and Astors, whose money ought to be driven
into the channels of trade and~entelprise II
is difficult to understand why Congress has
not given attention TO this subject before
now, or passed some of the numerous bills
pending for action and it is TO be hoped it
will not he put of longer than next session.

DE LONG AND HIS MEN.

No one regrets that the remains of De
Long and the gallant men who persisted with
him are to be brought home at Government
expense. But why the privilege is granted
in this instance and denied the remains of
other officers and men who have died in for
duty is not so apparent.
The enterprise upon which the Jeanette
sailed was purely private one, entirely out
side of the official duty of an officer or sailor
of the Navy. While ostensbly in the in
terest of science, it was in reality for the
sole interest and benefit of powerful news
paper corporation. The men who embarked
in the expedition did so for the purpose of
that acquired by Signor Blondin, when he
danced on a slack wire over Niagara S yawn-
ing chasm. Neither of these performances
were of any use to science Science has not
been, nor is it likely to be, advanced by ex-
peditions in search of the bones of other
naval, Blondins, or for the purpose of finding
the dead sea-fruits of foreign sea-of no
possible use when found. man has no
more right to murder himself or uselesslv
jeopardize the life intrusted to. his care by
the Creator than he has to take the life of
his fellow-man; and at the narrowing tale
| of the suffering and death OF De Long and
bis men Science may well cry out {" Let no
"more murders of this kind he committed
GO in my name"
While, then, we make no objection to the
act appropriating public funds for the ex-
| pense of removing the remains of these men
to their homes, we still claim that there is
equal, not to say more, proprety in bring
| ing home at Government expense the re-
| mains of the gallant officer or sailor who,
! while in the strict line ofhis duty, under the
orders of his proper superior, is stricken
| down at his post in distant land, or whose
body is washed up upon the lonely shores OF
South Sea sand-bar, as far from home, as
desolate and pitiless, as are the frigid shores
| of an Arctic sea.

NEW MILITARY DEPARTMENTS.


A Encouragement of cur military geo
graphical departments is necessity appar-
ent to the most casual observer. The rail
way system of the great West has within
the past few years made such wonderful
progress, doing away with old and estab.
fishing new lines of communication, that
the reorganization cannot much longer be
layed.
The recent changes in department COM
manders, with those already indicated soon
to be made, are evidently the outlines Of
coming events casting the shadows of greater
changes yet to come.
Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and possi-
bly, Utah, it is rumored. are likely to con-
stitute a new department, second in impor-
tance to none now established in the coun-
try. 1t is also said that in the new deal
the Department of Cincinnati, sometimes
called the Department Of the South, will
probably be snutIed out by General Sher-
man 5 military scissors, The importance of
having the headquarters of a department
near the city of Cincinnati is undoubtedly
oyer-estmated by the denizens of that en-
terprsing four corners; and certainly it does
not warrant the keeping up of such a mill
tary establishment as is now supported
there. At these headquarters there are on
duty some of the most efficient officers, line
and stan. in the Army, who are well aware
that the whole thing-feld, stan, band, and
baggage-is not unlike fancy footman on
the back seat of village cart-very pretty
to look at, but, as Mr.. Toots would say,
Of no consequence so far as any practi-
cal use is concerned.

A NOTABLE figure has vanished from the
Senate, where they were all too few, in the
person Of the eloquent BENJAMIN Harvey
Hill, of Georgia. His career has already
been SO extensively discussed by busy pens
as to leave little in the way of analysis or
eulogy until the gooerer verdict Of history
comes to be entered, Then IL will probably
be adjudged of "Ben." Hill as of other
Southern statesmen, that the great oppor-
tunlty of life was lost as we'll as the cruelest
wrench to the feelings experienced, when
they did not at critical time adhere to the
Union sentiments they allowed to be over
ruled by mistaken notion of duty to sec
tion. This error of judgment Senator Hill
nobly retrieved by subsequent services to his
State and country, and his brave and patient
death, ftly crowning an heroic life, showed
that courage and moral grandeur are con
fined to no one man or part of our country.
The whispered "A,m3st Home 4" from tue
tortured and wasted organs of Speech is
worthy to rank in lsconio pathos with the
"Adsum" which has brought tears to the
eyes Of so many readers Of q great master Of
the human heart

one might imagine, from the difficulty of
imposing taxation, that taking it off would be
one the easiest of tasks. Soft might be, lift
were undertaken in good fairh and without
regard to private, personal, or partisan ends.
We have got past the point of expecting any
thing of this kind from the Republican party.
The reduction of taxation and expenditure
can only properly belong to the Opposition,
not to party which has been in power dur
ing an era of imitation and extravagance, and
is still entangled with the alliances then
formed. But really it is almost comical to
note the outcry raised when any item Of the
present revenue is threatened with repeal
second only to that which arose against its
imposition twenty years or so ago, or when
one of the pillars of the Constitution is
touched. First of all we have the taritf-for-
protection-only people, who want all the
internal taxes repealed, rather than penny
should be taken from the customs which
make them rich. They have even proposed
such wild schemes as that the surplus
revenue should be divided among the States

Government is still in debt. They are met
on the other side by the Temperance and
anti-tobacco people, who claim that vicious
"indulgences " should be taxed even more
heavily, fpossible, than at present Between
the two the Republicans are driven to repeal
the taxes which we can best afford to keep,
those which bear only upon the rich, viz,
the bankers and their depositors, as exempli-
fed in Judge Kelley's bill This raises,
with Justice, the most indignant outcry Of all.
