Suing States.

Several newspapers have suggested, in
The shape Of threat, that for the eleventh
amendment to the Federal Constitution
another may bc substituted which VIII
allow States to be sued and compelled to
p9y their debts. Such threats are Idle.
We said long before the Supreme Court
decision was rendered as to the constitu-
tlonality OF the RIDDLEBERGER bill that the
people OF no State i'm the Union would con-
sent to the ratification OF such a new
amendment. There are other things than
money TO be considered when changes are
nroposed to be made in the very structure
OF the Federal Government. Such a change
a. the one threatened would convert the
State governments into mere corporations.
The states would deserve no longer to be
called bodics-politic in any other sense
than that in which corporations are some
times so called.
Nobody cRn force the Federal Govern
ment to pay lis debts. II has absolute con
troll over the matter itself. SO as to th'

thcr they will pay their debts or not, cX-
eept that occasionally threat Of war, OF
actual war, induces The would-be repudia
tors to "shell out" rather than "bc shell
Cd" so there IS nothing peculiar in tn
fact that the States OF this Union cannot b,
forced to pay their debts. Yes, there 1
this peculiarly that foreign nations canno
compel them to pay by threatening to max
war upon them; because the United state
Government stands between them and sue
hostilitics. 1t protects them from foreign
enemies, but does not protect foreigner

The New NickcIs-So order 10 Stop
Their Coinage.

A Washington telegram saws: The Secrc-
tary OF the Treasury having directed that
the word "cen.s" be added to the new
iiye-cent piece, the superintendent Of the
Philadelphia mint, who produced the
original coin, is preparing a new de-
vice for the hack. No order has, how
ever, been made suspendmg the coinage
of the new fiye-cent pieces, and they are
being issued from the PhlladelphIl mint at
the rate Of neary $4,000 worth Il day. II g
demand comes exclusively from private
firms. The director OF the mint has re-
ceivcd letter from J. W. lIelilrich, for
merry cOiner at the New Orleans mint, and
now superintendent OF the mint At the City
OF Mexico, atiug that he has contract
for coming 100, 100000 pieces Of nickel coin
for the Mexican Government. The value
OF the coins is designated simply by Ro-
man numeral. The reverse side OF the
five-cent Mexican nickel is almost an exact
counterpart Of the reverse side OF the five
cent nickel now being issued from the
Philadelphia mint. II is also stated in this
connection that The French Government
has adopted the nickel coinage instead OF
bronze.

This nearly blockaded the street. Then q

she GirOnClistS.

The Boston Her0id says it becomes an
interesting question to know what Ma
roYE will do if the debt issucis abandoned,
and asks whether he will try to force it
into life by proposing another rCadiust-
ment or total reputation?
No. Such is not the usual course OF
things. The Girondists Of France would
not go a. far as the extremists desired them
to go, and so lost all. Whilst, therefore,
we do not expect General MALONE to at'
tempt to rcpudiate any more OF the public
debt OF Virginia, it would not be at all
strange thing il some OF his followers
were TO propose to rcpudiate all the re-
manning portion Of that debt.
