PrnftIess Policy.

The Republican papers assume that
there is a lack Of harmony between Mr..
Cleveland and Mr.. Hendricks and they
pretend to find a good deal of satisfaction
in this alleged condition Of affairs. Why
they should be happy on account Of a dis
agreement between the President and
Vice President-elect is not easy to under
stand. such a feeling is neither generous
nor c~ommendable. Their own party hav-
ing been beaten they hope. probably, that
the successful party will get very little
satisfaction out Of its success.
The truth is, however, that there has
been no disagreement between Mr.. Cleye-
land and Mr.. Hendricks, and there is no
probability that there will be any. The
Republican papers haven't yet got over
the habit of spreading false reports, which
thev INDUCED in so freely during the cam
paign. There is no danger now, how
ever. that their falsehOOds will do any
damage.
There Is no occasion for any ill-feeling
between Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Hen
bricks. Their respective spheres Of ac-
ton will be entirely distinct when the
Democratic party takes control Of the gov
eminent. The very general sentiment is
that Mr.. Cleveland Will not permit any
interference with his duties, and 1t is
about certain that he Will not attempt to
interfere with the duties Of any else.
All reports agree that Mr.. Cleveland
has a will Of his own, and that he will
not submit to dictatiOn from anybody.
He has a very clear and comprehensive
idea Of the responsibilities of the position
TO which he has been called, and he is not
only willing To ssum them, but is able
70 discharge them.
1t may be the policy Of the Republican
papers TO try to create the impression
that there is a want Of harmony between
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Hendricks and be-
tween Mr.. Cleveland and the leaders Of his
party, but it is a policy they will soon get
tired Of. 1t may amuse them for a little
r-hfro b,,+ ff will not DrOft them.

Report OF the Comptroller Of h
Currency.


The Comptroller Of the Currency, in his
annual report. again calls attention to the
necessity for legislation that viii prevent
further contraction Of the currency. Inc
legal tender, national bank note, gold ana
silver currency in circulation is now sum-
cient to meet business demands, u any
considerable contraction, in the opinion
OF the Comptroller, is certain 70 be fol-
lowed BY disastrous consequences.
The currency which the country now
has is the best il has ever had. There is
the most complete confidence in it, and
there are few, if any, who would care to
see a change. Whatever the fate Of the
banks which issue the national banking
currency NAV be. there is never any IN
e~asiness about the currency itself. That
is always good. This quality Of 1t Is
highly appreciated by those who remem-
Der the DAYS Of state banks, when bank
note detectOrs were a necessity and when
it was difficult often 10 pass the notes OF
the banks Of one state in another State.
The currency in those days was a great
nuisance and the source OF endlesss an
| ~noyance. II is difficult to say what such
a system Of currency would be nOw-a-
| DAYS when the number Of banks is so
much greater than it was then.
The national banking system, however,
must gradually go out of existence unless
something Is done TO prevent the payment
Of the bonds which are the basis Of it.
on Nov. 1 there were S194, 10000 ma
tured 3 per cent. bonds which will proba-

even if there is a very considerable
reduction in the tariff. In 1891 S250,OOO,-
900 Of AZ per cents. will fall due, and
by that time the surplus Of revenue will
be more than sufficient, doubtless, to pay
them.
In two months, beginning with o 1,
the corporate existence Of ia national
banks with an aggregate capital Of $780,
1880 will expire, and in 1885 the char
ters Of 30 national banks, representing
capital to the amount of SIS, 971,415 will
terminate. Many Of these banks will, OF
course. renew their charters, but there Is
quite a large per cent. of them that will
not. They contend that there is no profit
in the business.
The Comptroller makes two recommen-
dations. not for the purpose Of Initiating
circulation. but to keep it up to its pres
ent volume. He recommends that the
banks be allowed to issue circulation tc
the extent of 100 per cent. Of the par value
Of the bonds deposited instead Of 30 pei
cent, and that the law which places a
tax Of One-half of n per cent. on circu'
IatiOn be repealed. OF course, now that
the bonds command such a large premi-
UNI the profit in national banking Dusi'
ness is not nearly so large as it once a
There Is really no occasion for hurrying
the payment Of the bonds. If they are
needed as a basis for banking why not
keep them for that purpose? The people
would much rather have the tariff taxes
reduced than the bonds paid.

Readers of HawthOrne's "House Of Seven

poor Clifford Pyncheon, who had been I'M

said, after his release: ''My life is gone, and
where is my happiness? Oh! give me my

part, as CLEANS of warm sunshine occasionally

In political rights the white man and the
black man stand on a level before the law
and under the constitution. If the south had
the power to take away suffrage from the
negro. il is the very last thing that would be
attempted. If the Republican party had the
power to undo this privilege, it would be a
part Of their future platforms. The c0ndl-
lions have changed through differing in
terests. The negro is Indispensable 10 the
South for his labor, and he Is immensely
valuable as a new factor in politics. Inc
south has, therefore, the first interest in
protecting the black man, not only for the
reasons given. but because the increased the

The Secretary Of War and Gen.
HaZen.

The Secretary Of War in his annual re-
port, administered a quiet, but rather Sc
we're reproof to Gen. Hazen, Chief OF the
Signal Service, for going outside the
sphere Of his legitimate duties to criticise
the Secretary of War and the Secretary
of the Navy for their conduct in cOnnec-
ton with the Greedy relief expeditions.
Gen. Hazen appears to think that they
b~lundered, because when the Darlington
expedition returned unsuccessful, to st.
John, they did not approve of the plan
Of purchasing a whaling steamer at that
point, and Of making another attempt 10
reach the Greedy party that fall.
The Secretary Of War shows IN mis- re-
port that the plan was thoroughly can
vassed, and the conclusion reached that
il was impracticable. Even if its practi-
cability mad been doubtful, it wasn't
Gen. Hazen's business in his report to
criticise the actions Of his superior OIL
GERS.
The weight Of public opinion appears
to be that Gen. HaZen blundered in the
Greedy relief business. The investigation
Of the causes that led to the loss Of the
Iellel snip IIUltus was NtA tdAu4F d5dAASt
him. He does not appear to be satisfied,
however, to let the matter rest where that
investigation left it. He keeps stirring it
up in n way and another all the time,
and. strange as it may appear, the more
inquiry there is the worse it appears TO
be for him.
If Gen. Hazen has any facts which
would shift the blame for the failure of
Lieut.. Darlington to leave supplies at
Cape Sabine it would seem as if he would
publish them. His orders TO Lieut.. Gar
lington were to push nOrthward as rap
idly as possible if he found open water,
with the hope Of reaching Lady Franklin
Bay. and if he failed in reaching
that point to leave supplies at Littleton
Island and Cape Sabine IN his return.
The Proteus did return. She was
crushed in the ice. The failure to leave
supplies at Cape Sabine On the way north
was the occasion Of the suffering and
starvation of so many Of the Greedy party.
Now that the Secretary Of Wan and the
Chief Signal Officer have got into a squab-
bic about the Greedy matter another long
investigation Is probably inevitable.

1t probably does not make the bank

very well to know that it is proposed to
organize stockholders associations" to

posed that the detectives shadow all per-

banks and report to the stockholders the
least evidence not only Of irr~egularitY in
habits, but Of personal extravaganza.
Such a scheme might have a wonderfully

the most upright official would not relish
the idea Of being at all times under sur

The question Of mixed marriages, which
is one Of the subjects before the Plenary
Council at Baltimore, is one that excites
great interest all e the country. 1t is
understood that the council is almost
unanimously opposed to them. The pre-
lates say that the marriages between
Catholics and Protestants not only cause
domestic troubles, but take Catholics
away from their church or make them
very lukewarm in the faith. 1t is ex-
pected that the sOlemnizatiOn Of such
marriages in the Catholic churches will
be strictly forbidden in the future, while
such marriages may be prohibited alto
gether under pain Of accommodation.

IRENE, it will remain to be seen whether
love will laugh at the rules Of the church
as it does at lOcksmiths and stern parents.
