Our Part of the Patronage.


1t is intimated that the President has
assured Congressman O'FERRALL that
the axe OF the official headsman will
soon begin to fall upon those Federal
ofice-holders in Virginia whose posi-
tons can be properly vacated.
There is no concealment Of the fact
that the Virginia Democrats want the
Offices They truly believe that they
can fill them better than the Republican
incumbents. Therefore, the sooner
they get in the better they will be salts
fed. At the same time they are not
unmindful Of the anti-spoils policy out
lined by Mr.. CLEVELAND before he was
nominated; when he was notified of
his nomination, and when he took the
oath Of Office. In every, or nearly
every, case where a change is asked for
the Democrats of Virginia can convince
the President that the man they propose
Is better fitted for the office and more
acceptable TO the people than the in
cumbent So, even under the civil
service theory that the best-qualified
men should have the Offices, the Demo-
Gratis are entitled to them.
II Congressman O'FERRALL and Gen.
eral F'ITz LEE, who, above all others
seem to have tho ear OF the President
on most questions relating to Virginia
affairs, can get him. to hurry up little
it may be all the better for us in our
forthcoming State canvass
II would be better that the appoint
ments should DO made at once than at
q time when We are arrayed against
our enemy fighting for the governorship
and the Legislature. In order that this
might be done and with becoming
leisure the DISPATCH opposed the propo-
sition for an early State Democratic con-
vention. which was urgently advocated
few months ago by some OF our con.

An Odd-Fellows' Temple.

Grand-Master STANsBUBY. head OF
the Independent Order OF Odd-Fellows,
recommends the erection in this city OF
fine temple to accommodate the Grand
Lodge, the grand secretary, the subordi-
nate lodges, and TO some extent the
public.
Within the last few years Richmond
has grown rich in fine public buildings
and in monuments, and in the various
means of perpetuating the memories Of
the war between the States. The Odd
Fellows will do well to align themselves
with their Masonic brethren and raise a
temple where it can be seen by the eye
of the traveller from every part OF the
world.
Richmond is indeed sort OF Mecca.
Nobody who has not looked into the
matter knows how many visitors come to
Richmond from almost all over the
world.
BY all means let there be an Odd
Fellows temple erected in Richmond.

nnoraries. We hear yerv lit,le abou,

| temporaries. We hear very little about
II now, and We therefore suppose that
there Ia general acquiescenco in the old
plan OF fixing convention date somc-
where between the last week in July and
the middle of August.
We may also reasonably hope to hear
from the President with respect TO such
positions outside OF the State as he may
find himself able to offer Yirginians. 1t
is understood, we believe, that we are
TO have fair share of these general APP
pointments.
The DISPATCH has no interest in any
of these appointments apart from It's
concern for the success of the Demo
cratic party and its desire for the well
fare of the country. We realize, how
ever, that the more liberal the President
is with us the easier and the greater will
be our victory in the fall, when we find
ourselves confronted not only by our old
enemy the Republicans. but by some
Democrats who, Disconnected with us,
have allied themselves with the
Third party. Our State pride inclines
us TO hope that the President will call
upon several Of his Virginia friends to
help him in prominent administration
work
1t is limited, We believe, that wo have
not heretofore been sagacious IN our
aims in this direction. Those who know
where "the kinks" are ought now to
help us to "straighten them out. "
All Of the considerations of public
policy that we have mentioned. and
others also, we doubt not will be brought
TO the Presidents attention by bis Vir-
ginia advisers, and in good time we hope
to see Virginia Democrats in numerous
places now held by Republicans.

4 Real Confederate Dinner.

We should like to see n real Confede-
rate dinner spread at the Memorial
Bazaar-rye coffee, "slap-iacks, sor-
ghum, Nassau pork, rice-soup, potato
pie, and other of the delicacies which
delighted the palates of the boys when
they got big boxes from home and made
themselves exceeding merry.
However, if these articles were priced
at Confederate figures payable in the
present currency only our millionaires
could afford to sit at the table. A fairer
way would be 10 scale down the Con-
tolerate prices fifty for one.
Those who get up this memorial dinner
Will be able to make it an entertaining
feature of the bazaar. If they wish the
aid Of soldier-cooks We doubt not that
CHARLIE EPPs, CARLTON MCCARTHY,
Polk MILLER CREED DAVIS, JIM GEN
TRY, CHARLIE GIBSON, JIMMIE GRAY, and
a score Of others whom we could men

| Profit on circulation. ........... S344 -
| Percentage sn maximum. circulation obtaina-
| bic, O.344 per cent.
The 4 per cents yield a profit on
circulation of $943 on 800. 900; the 6
per cents yield profit on circulation OF
1.642 on 100000.
The government permits the national
banks to issue circulating notes TO the
amount Of 80 per cent. of the par value
Of the bonds which they deposit in
Washington for the redemption of sal d
circulating notes, but this privilege is
granted to the banks in the interest OF
the public-thst is to say, in order to
provide for the people what President
CLEVELAND styles ga sound and stable
currency, and in order to guard against
another thing against which the Presi-
dent in his inaugural address warned
the country-nsmely, legislation intend
ed or calculated TO have the effect of de-
preciating the purchasing power Of the
money paid ont to workingmen for their
labor. And by the way. what profit
would the mechanic or other hard work
ing man derive from destroying the
present banking system and allowing
the bonds of States, cities, railroads,
&c. &C., to be employed as the basis Of
circulating notes?
The currency thus provided for might
have the doubtful merit, or rather
undoubted demerit, of refusing to
circulate away from homo and turning
its back upon the financial centres but
inasmuch as its purchasing power
would be reduced in proportion to its
non-acceptability to businessmen the
whole amount of currency in circulation
would purchase no more Of any given
commodity than would the present
amount of currency.
In word, as the President has warned
the country would be the case, you can
not make fiat currency which shall have
the purchasing power OF currency re.
deemable in gold and silver.
BY the way, it is source of infinite
satisfaction TO the business interests of
the country that there is now at the
head OF the government man who de-
clares that he will employ all the pow
ers of the executive department in the
effort to prevent rash experimenters and
wild theorizers from substituting for
the best paper currency in the world a
currency based upon municipal bonds
and the bonds OF all sorts of corpora
tons, and having nothing in the world
TO recommend it to public favor except
its chespness, its disposition to fee the
commercial centres, its non-acceptability
TO banks and bankers, and its small pur.
chasing power.
We credit the President with all these
executive virtues. and we would not be
afraid to "bet high" that he will not
allow MIR. EoKELs, the new Comptroller
OF the Currency, to do anything likely
to encourage wildcat banking. But wo
do Mr.. EcKELs injustice thus to speak OF
him for he will be found to DO the
right man in the right place.

Our Counfry'S Money.

Many persons imagine that the ma
tional banks make immense profits upon
the money which they lend out or make
much money in some mysterious way
whereas the fact is that but for the priyi'
lege which they enjoy of issuing circu-
lating notes equal in amount to 80 per
cent. of their capital most of them
would probably cease to do q banking
business at all.
Mr.. 4. p. HEPBURN, the Ropublica n
Comptroller of the Currency, furnished
last week to the New York Commercial
and Financial Chronicle a statement
throwing light upon this interesting
subject His tables show the profit on
national-bank circulation with each Of
the classes of United States bonds IS
security. Here is a specimen table
which, like all of his tables, is based on
the assumption that 6 per cent. is the
rate Of interest charged for lending
money:
