New York Politics.

The newspapers are trying to appear very
nent republican politicians friendly to Sena-
tor Miller, OF New York, have visited Buffalo
and consulted there with Mr.. Warren, the
chairman of the republican state central com.
mittee. Now, to tho ordinary observer this
would seem about the right thing to have
done. The popular belief is that Mr. Warren
has no feeling of settled opposition to the
President, and that Warner Miller does not
allow his enthusiasm for the President to
throw him off of his balance. Or, to
turn it around and give the truth
little better chance, the President
has no warmer political friend than
Mr.. Warren, and Senator Miller is cautiously
feeling his way as new party leader, hoping
that no harm shall come of his proceedings
The time was approaching when the state com
mittee must fix time for holding the state
convention. Apprehensive souls feared lest
the new rule of district representation might
not be given easy play. The district organi-
cations needed adjustment, and the state com
mittee's attitude might become very i'm
portaut. If the friends Of Senator Mil
Ter, represented by Speaker sheard, ant
the friends of the President, represented by
Mr.. Warren, have been comforting together
on matters of general party interest, they
have done right, and we hope they arrived a
fair understandings as to the time and mode
of choosing national delegates. 1t is no
likely there has been anything beyond this
1t seems already to have good effect, in tina
it has convinced all sides that the state com
mittee contemplates no snap Judgment, an,
that there is to DO fair play.

Tho Mcpherson bill before the senate pro-
poses that national banks may have notes
issued to them to an amount equal TO the par
value Of the bonds deposited by them within
the amount Of paid up capital-that is to say,
that whereas only 500 can now be issued on
per cent. bond worth S125 in the market,
he would have 500 issued on such q bond
The world knows that when the amount Of
notes was limited to 90 per cent. it was to
guard against a possible fall Of our bonds
below 90 But it nevor was intended
that any more bonds should BIO re.
quired to be deposited than would
afford an unfailing fund for redemption.
If this be so, what reason can be given for
depositing $l25 as security for S10O2 Mr..
Bayard wants stability. He wants an un-
changeabe relation between issue and secur-
ity, and therefore he objects to allowing an
during tho previous year, of the bonds to be
deposited, as recommended by Secretary
Folger. Inasmuch as the market value of
our bonds is now forever welded to their in
trinsic value, the question of what they are
worth is always to be determined by the ratio
of tho interest on money. That this will vary
some is true, but the 10 per cent. margin pro-
posed by the secretary would amply secure
the government against any possible loss.
There never will be time when United
Saltes bond of any rate of interest will lose
10 per cent, Of its market Value within q
year.
Mr. Sherman wants an issue authorized
equivalent to the face of tho bond, and one
half Of the interest in excess of per cent,
which is to accumulate thereon before ma
turity.
Either of the three propositions appear TO
be entirely safe, and the question is which
will most certainly sustain tho demand for
currency which all agree is to BIO met.
Under the MCPHERSON plan the holders of
800 4 per cent. bond, worth in the market
1925, could obtain notes to the amount Of $780,
Under the Folgor plan the same bond would
entitle the holders to $11250, that being 10
per cent less than its market value.
Under the Sherman plan the holders would
receive s111.50, Thus, the bond bears in
torest at / per cent in excess of per cent.
and has twenty-three years to run. 0ne-half
Of per cent. for twenty-three years on 800
would be $ll.50 to which add the par value
of the bond and we have the amount of notes
to which the holder would be entitled.

IT is fairly evident that the Gladstone
ministry is badly frightened over the results
of its imbecile Egyptian policy. The most
conclusive evidence of this lies in the hasty
change within the last few days from the
policy of desertion to one Of active prepare
tion for the defense of lower Egypt. British
troops are being hurredly forwarded and
Sir Garnet Wolsely is at pains to ostenta-
tiously announce that the "rebels" will now
have to face English soldiers. 1t all serves
TO show that John Bulls pride has been
touched to the quick by the scathing com.
ments Of the continental journals upon
highlands weakness and selfshness. There
is one thing that may serve to help tho min
istry out OF their difficulty before their
troops can be got ready for effective service,
and that is the great influence of Gen. Gordon
with the wild tribes Of the Soudan. From
tho accounts of his reception at Berber, it
seems likely he has lost none Of the venera-
ton with which he was formerly
REGARDED among the people from Nu-
bia to Abyssinia. Ho spent several
wears among them, having supreme control.
He was invariably successful in his mill
tary operations, and invariably kept all his
compacts and promises to the various tribes
lie was magnanimous, just, and humane, and
his course, so different from the cruel, cor
rupt, aud unreliable conduct of the Egyptian
boys and pashas with whom the people were
too familiar, enabled him to retire from tho
government of tho soudan, leaving it in the
highest condition of peace and prosperity il
had ever known, and with almost unEoundeC

The New York Mail and Express yesterday
afternoon published an interview with Sena.
tor Sherman, in which he says that the best
thing for congress to do in reference to the
tariff is to let it severely alone; that the two
houses are not in harmony, and if bill were
passed the responsibility could not DO fixed
upon either party, and that q proper tariff
law could only DO made when ono party has
the power and the responsibility. The re-
publican party, he says, has been from the
beginning and is in favor of protective duties
with view to diversity our industries, and
this is shown by the laws ii has enacted for
twenty-four years past, and it is almost cer-
tain that were the democratic party in power
it would take ground against all systems Of
protection and franc laws simply with a
view to revenue. He expressed the opinion
that free trade, as advocated by Frank Hurd,
some college professors-political theorists
would be utterly destructive to the business
interests Of the country and produce the same
stagnation in trade and financial ruin that
followed the tendency to free trade in 1885,
and 1857. "What we want" said no, sis &
system of protection duties, moderate in de
gree, but stable and certain. This last is 4
great point, and one which should obtair
consideration. Then we want market
changes in our commercial laws to encourage
American shipbuilding and commerce on thu
high seas"

Some mention Of the French spoliation
claims in this column few days ago brought
forth the following criticism and gossip about
ancient statesmen who favored the claimants:
"The Man on the Avenue makes slight
mistake in saying that the claimants under
the French spoliation bill are longing to see
French gold. The French government long
ago settled with our government for those
claims, but after receiving an equivalent from
the French our government has not yet paid
its own citizens. All over our country are
those who would BIO benefited If this just
debt were paid. Both Charles Sumner and
John G. Calhoun, differing as they did on
most points, agreed in the business Of this
claim Of our citizens upon our own govern
ment. The same opinion was held by Daniel
Webster and many other distinguished states
