TIE BANK IND Tx BILLS.

To-day has been set for the consideration by
the House Of the bill to extend National bank
charters The declared wish of the House
ought in this case to be strictly carried out
the measure should have precedence of all
other business until the House is ready TO de-
eide for or against it. 1t is understood that Mr..
Hiscock very properly declines to bring for
ward the remaining appropriation bills until
this measure and the bill to reduce internal
revenue have been acted upon. In this course
he not only has support in the expressed de-
sire IF the Republican caucus but, what is
more important, in due regard for the public
interests. Members of Congress, of whom
many are absent already, cannot be counted
upon to remain at Washington for the COM
pletion of important public business after the
appropriation bills have passed. 1t is neces-
sary to deal with men as they are, not as they
ought to be, and experience teaches that a
quorum cannot be held at the capital, after hot
weather comes, with Congressional elections
approaching.
The two measures above named are pecu-
liarly important to the industrial and CONNER
cal interests of the country. Failure to act
upon them might bring about great pr0stration
of business, and that, too, in the fall, at the
very time when members will be asking reelec-
ton from their constituents. When thousands
of workmen are looking i'll vain for work, and
charge it to the neglect of lawmakers that
they lack bread for their wives and children,
Representatives who seek reelection are apt to
have a hard time of it. The danger of imam
cial disturbance next fall, in consequence of
sudden contraction of circulation, would be by
no means remote or small, if Congress should
fail to prevent liquidation of banks whose
charters expire soon, or to reduce taxation.
The expiration of many charters the accumu-
lation OF surplus revenue, the disturbance of
the extended five per cents held by banks the
consequent surrender of circulation, and the
demand for money to move the crops, are
likely to come together next fall, just at the
wrong time for many members if the House
does not sustain the policy proposed by the
Republicans.

rs Lr 4 GRINDING MONOPOLYf

If Anti MOnopolsts and Changers could be
impressed by any facts adverse to their pre-
conceived theories, it would be well for them
to study the report of the Lake Shore Railroad
Company. This is one of the great trunk lines
in which Mr. Vanderbilt takes the greatest in
terest. 1t has the advantage of his skill in
management 1t has profted as much AS any
other road by the combination OF trunk lines to
advance or maintain rates. 1t has sought
through traffic at least as persistently as any
other road in the country, and has enjoyed at
least as complete d monopoly as to u large pro

The new rules which the Court of Appeals
has adopted to govern admissions to the bar
are more satisfactory than those which have
been spasmodically in force in this State for
some years. One examination, after three
years study, will now admit the candidate as
attorney and counsellor heretofore two years
after being admitted as attorney he has been
expected to stand another inquiry as to his
ability to act as counsel Tor. Many eminent
lawyers have thought it hardly worth while in
this country to try to keep up the distinctions
as to the grades of the profession which prevail
in England. The allowance of one year
for a college education, in the term of study
required before applying for admission, is not
too liberal. Another excellent provision is the
one requiring those persons who have not re-
ceyed academic training to pass an examina-
ton before entering on a clerkship in an office.
This is to show that they have sufficient edu
cation to prevent their legal papers from being
a disgrace to the profession. AS the rules have
stood heretofore, except when relaxed by
special legislation, the person who spent four
years in a lawyers Office, if only as door boy,
had a decided advantage over the young man
who passed the same period within college
walls.

state of mind touching the new Capitol
There has been the annual discovery OF
cracks and seams and sundry other III
projections in the building, although
as yet the superb rumor of last year thaV
there was every prospect of the entire concern
speedily sliding down the hill and bringing
up in the Hudson has not been revived ana
improve upon. 1t certainly does look as ii the
Assembly Chamber was not altogether safe,
and a knowledge of that solemn fact fur
nishes an additional reason why the sine die
adjournment should take place with as little
DELAY as possible. Ordinarily "he that
buideth the house has more honor than
the house." But if the present rumors are
confirmed the new Capitol will come III for
very few honors, and the builders for even
fewer.
Lit le has yet be en- accomplished toward
unraveing the mystery surrounding the
crime at Dublin. The English and Irish po-
lice are bending all their energies to find some
traces that will lead to the assassins but so
far as the public knows, with no great sue
cess. Descriptions of suspected persons have
been given out, and a man who arrived from
America on Friday has been arrested. This is a
which the assassins rode III was public We
hicle, and was registered, all the drivers VIII
have to give an account of their movements on
Saturday afternoon, and i'll this way some clew
NAV be found. The theory that Lord Frederick
Cavendish was an unexpected victim does not
now seem to be borne out by the facts. some
rumOrs of plot to take the lives OF other OIL
ficials are circulated. The political consequence
es of the crime develop slowly. Both Houses
of Parliament adjourned yesterday after short
sessions. Mr. Gladstone, in the Commons,
spoke with much emotion, and said that so far
as the Government were concerned the recent
events would cause all previous arrangements
to be recast The Irish members in the House
of Commons were clad in deep mourning.
VIII the relatives Of the wretchcd assassin at
Washington never settle down into obscurity
and let people forget them 7 They are con-
stantly rising into unpleasant nOtoriety, moved
to it by their own vanity or their evil destiny
it is hard to tell which. Decent people were
shocked when Guiteau's sister some time ago
announced her determination to lecture, and
her appearance drew few people to hear her

unfortunate husband, Mr.. ScOville, feels COM
PEELED TO call public attention to his family
troubles 10y obtaining writ Of habeas corpus
directed to John w. Guiteau, ordering him to
produce Mrs. ScOvile IN Court to-day. The
unfortunate husband declares that his wife has
lost her mind, and that she is being improperly
used by certain persons who are allowing her
to lecture in public. Mr.. Scoville's wish to
prevent these exhibitions, which certainly
shock good taste and propriety, will excite
sympathy; but if he thought it was decent to
lecture about Guiteau, it is hardly to be won
dered at that his wife, the assassin's sister,
should demand her share of publicity, and fol-
low his bad example.

The letter which Dr. Lamson wrote to a
friend Just before he was hanged for the muir
der of his brOther-in-law, Percy Nj. John, is a
rather Indirect confession of guilt, bat still it
u equivalent to an acknowledgements his crime.
It is said, however, that he made a more direct
confession to the authorities. Plainly, the man
did not consider himself responsible for the
crime. Considering the reflections which med

sea uences must have given rise to, this is not
