Mr.. Kuoxs Bank Sill.

Ii is quite generally understood, especially
among bankers, that some o-her security
! than government bonds will have to be
accepted FOR national bank circulation if
national banks are 10 continue in existence.
/ The bonds are being steadily called in and
cancelled, and as the amount of them de-
creases the price Of them increases. Ths
| consequence IS that national banks cannot
afford 70 purchase boads as a basis for CIR
culation.
Senator Sherman introduced into the
Senate. day or two ago, bill framed by
Mr.. J. J. Knox, who was, a few years ago,
controller Of the currency, which provides
a basis for national bank circulation. II
is a bill 10 which Mr. Knox has given a
good deal Of thought, and it viii command,
doubtless, very general attention. Its
merit is that the security it provides is
much less costly to the banks than the
security which the banks now deposit as a
basis for circulation. OF course the security
is not 50 good, but Mr. Knox is confident
that it is sufficient to protect the holders Of
national bank currency. 1t consists OF
government bonds, coin, or gold or silver
bullion, and the national bank safety fund.
Mr.. Knox says the workings Of the.plan he
proposes can be understood from the fol-
lowing illustration: A bank having
capital OF 100000 will be entitled TO
100000 circulation. This circulation will
be secured by $685. Of government
per cent. bonds, $l05,0J0 worth
of gold or silver bullion. aud the
national bank safety fu1d will secure
the remaining $4,000 This safety fund
arises from a tax on national bank circula-
tioa, and the amount OF it can be pretty
closely approximated. Mr.. Knox's opinion
is that if the national banks, under his plan,
should be as stable as they are under the
present system the safety fund would be
sufficient TO meet any demand that would be
likely TO be made upon it. 1t might not be,
however, because under Mr.. Knox's plan
banking might become reckless, and his
BILL therefore, provides that, in addition 10
the security already mentioned, the circulat-
ing notes of insolvent banks shall be made
good out of the assets aud liability of share
holders Of such banks in preference to all
other claims, except claims growing out of
the closing up OF the lnsolvent institutions.
OF course there will be obj sctions to Mr.
Knox's bill, and the objections may be
valid ones, or they may be intended to
secure greater freedom for bankers at the
expense of the people. There are those,
perhaps, who will Insist that there is no
need for depositing government bonds at
all, because bullion will be good enough
security and others may insist that the cir
culating notes ought to bs issued by the
government and not by the banks, 50 that
the people would have the benefit of the
loss OF circulating notes-that is, the differ
ence between the amount Of notes issued
and the amount presented for redemption.
The merits and faults of Mr. Knox's bill
will be fully shown, doubtless. when it
comes before congress for discussion.

An interesting event took place In Ply

Congressman Peters, of Kansas, is going
to Withdraw from congressional life at the
end of his present term, and he gives as his
reason that the expenses of a congressman
aretoo heavy-in other words, he is too
poor to remain in congress. Senators and
representatives sometimes assert that a
member may save money out of his salary
and still have all of the influence that his
ability entities him to, but one resignation
like that of ex-senator Chace, of Rhode
Island, or withdrawal such as Mr.. Peters
has fixed upon, seems to create widespread
doubt as to the correctness of such state
ment

Nobody hears much nowadays about the
alleged candidacy of John L. Sullivan for
congress, but it is stated that there are two
congressman who are very much interested
in the matter. They are Messrs. Andrew
and O'Neill, Of Boston, and they are inter-
ested ia 1t because. if Sullivan becomes
candidate, one or the other Of them will
have to run against him. He has never an
nounced from which district he would be a
candidate, but he is reported to have said
that he would like to defeat Mr.. Andrew
because he is mugwump.

Col. Robert G. lngersoll is very good
lawyer, and when he undertakes to cross
examine witnesses for the opposing side, he
is very likely to commit them to something
that will injure their cases, but he met his
match when he tackled Miss Cammerer, of
Philadelphia, who is suing a New Yorker
for 500, 900 for breach of promise She
entered the legal arena for a bout with the
celebrated infidel without any fear or
tripidation. 1t suited the colonel to appear
extremely gallant, but his gallant manner
is said to have been nothing as compared
with the young lady's suave, graceful and
easy way of answering his most insinuating
questions. Miss Cammerer is undoubtedly
a smart woman.

Its not surprising that republican organs
should defend the appointment of ex-Gov.
Warmotn for a federal office in Louisiana.
The President has given offices to good
many newspaper men, nearly all of whom
were connected with prominent republican
newspapers, and, as consequence, it would
be difficult for him to perform any official
act, no matter how deserving of consure.
that did not meet with the unstinted praise
of the republican press generally, By these
subsidized newspapers the appointment of
Warmoth is spoken of as a good one, and
the man himself is said to be honorable and
honest. The fact is that Warmoth was
one of the most inscriptions of the car
pet-baggers who fed upon the south soon
af ter the war.

Col. james FL. Lambert was the chief
editor of that bright but sometimes unfair
newspaper, the Philadelphia Inquirer, but
he couldn't submit to Quay's bossism, so he
was requested 10 resign. Quay's candidate
for governor Of Pennsylvania is thought to
pected that the Inquirer would support
him, but that newspaper came out fat
footed for Gen. Hastings. This act of re-
bellion was swiftly punished by Editor
Lambert's dismissal. Quay has the Penn

Light fire before she come.
Lest she find us chill at home.

history connected with il.
Mrs. w. w. Gordon and sister and Mrs.
Perkins, nee Miss Ericsson, a daughter Of
the famous inventor, and Mrs Bailey of st
Louis wore classmates in the Canda school
In New York, and last summer the class had
reunion at Rochester, where this motto,
over the alcove in Mrs. Perkins dining
room, was much admired by Mrs Bailey,
and as she said she was having handsome
residence erected she would like to have Just
such motto over her dining room mantel-

Mrs. Gordon thought that she could

Georgia HusSars were about to have bazaar
sne would have the motto painted on pol
lshed Georgia curly pine and sold to her
for thebenetit of the building fund for the
troops armory. 1t was intended to have
the motto for exhibition at the baZar, but
there was some delay in getting as perfect
a piece OF curly pine as was desired. Finally
through the kindness of Mr. Geffcken of
the Savannah, Florida and Western
car shops, and an ex-lieutenant in
the Sixty-third Georgia, commanded
by Capt. W. w. Gordon's
brother, magnificent specimen of pine s
feet long and 10 inches wide was secured,
and Mr.. Geffcllen polished it so that it is al
most as reflective as a mirror.
The motto was pain-takingly hand-painted
by Miss Weymuth in most artistic manner,
and Mrs. Gordon gilded it. 1t is an orna-
ment that will lend elegance to the most
esthetic surroundings. 1t will remain on
exhibition IN the cotton sampling room of
Gordon & Co.'s house until Monday, when
it will be sent by express to Mrs. Bailey.
1t will bring S75 to the armory fund.
