THE terms granted by Sherman to
Johnston's soldiers were even O mag
unanimous than those which Grant gave
to Lees. The lately departed general OF
the armies of the nation was as tender i'll
peace as he was strong in war. The
south never had a better friend than
Sherman, never will have. We regret
such demonstrations as several Of the
southern journals have made concerning
the death of Sherman. We regret them
exceedingly. We regret all southern
dissensions from that perfect nationality
which is evidently the recognition and
enforcement Of lone law, n element
in all parts Of the country. There can,
not he two paramount policies in two
sections of the nation. That which has
been is that which shall he; the doctrine
of the widest freedom and the deepest
loyalty to the nation ultimately will pre-
vail in all the states. This was Sher.
mans creed, as it is Ours, and is the creed
of the north, though the south may not
believe SO. The south did not believe
that the creed OF the north was national,
until the dreadful voice of the sword a n
nounced it.-lInter Ocean.

II you would be as happy as a child,

Childish wonder is the FIRST step in

TO best please a child is the highest

To stimulate wholesome curiosity in

Amusement to children is like rain Ia

L. r. WIGrON, a banker Of Norfolk,
Neb., is an open advocate of first mort
gage bonds on land as the basis for ma
tional currency; the currency to he re-
doemable i'm gold and silver. He says
the results would be: Interest reduced
to a maximum az four per cent; inter
est a uniform rate throughout the
country; the revenue not less than II
hundred million dollars a year. Our
paper worth its face in gold OF silver
anywhere in the world. He suggests a
government savings bank paying small
interest, issuing certificates that could
be cashed on demand. The statesmen
bankers, it seem to the JOURNAL, could
not hut favor some such q system-a
currency based on the doubly solid
foundation of land security and the
promise of the government. Hon. L.
Gerard, OF this city, president of the
Columbus State Bank, (whose views
We published at length several months
| since, and which have attracted wide at.
tention) remarked to us at the time that
| it might seem strange to some that being
| a banker. he should favor the reduction
of interest by a system Of finance that
would give the country q greatly reduced
rate Of interest, put farmers out of con
troll of money sharks, and prevent the
cornering of the currency, but such is
the fact, and he is enthusiastically in
favor of government loans on landed
security. Craftsmanship will some day
prevail Ove cent-per-cent, and such
views as those of Bankers Gerard and

hands of legislators and the general pub
