Incontrovertiblc Bonds.


A telegram from Washington in yes.
terday's DIspArcH says that on tues
day. in the House of Representatives,
Mr.. JOHNSON, OF Ohio, introduced his
..interconyertible" bond bill. Mr.. JOHN
soS's proposition is usually styled a
uroposition to mako bonds and green
backs "interconvertible;" but "incon-
troyertible" is better word, seeing
that, if our view OF it be correct, the
bonds will not prove to be interconverti-
BILE.
II is tho same old proposition which
ve have so often mentioned as having
been advocated for years by HORACE
GREELEY.
MIR. JOHNSON will doubtless attempt to
answer all objections TO it when he gets
an opportunity to do so.
For our part, We cannot understand
how he proposes to prevent bondhold-
err from using as currency oil the bonds
he has or had as soon as the fact Is made
known that these bonds may be con-
verified into greenbacks upon applica-
ton to the proper government officials.
If q thousand-dollar bond is known to
be convertible into currency at the OPP
ton Of the holder that fact will render
the bond itself currency, and prevent
the government from saving the inter
est which Mr.. JOHNSON desires it to save
and which he intends bis bill to provide
for saving.
There is undoubted merit in the
scheme, if the objection above pointed
out can be overcome, and it would not
be creditabe to Mr.. JoHNsoN's sagacity
for him to fail to explain how he pro-
poses to prevent bondholders from enl-
ploying their bonds as currency.
If the objections to it can be removed
his bill would certainly seem to provide
for an elastic currency, which so many
persons regard as exceedingly desirable.

Mrs. Shaun'S Case.

Whether Mrs. SHAM, of New Jersey,
was guilty or not guilty OF the murder
of her son, the jury did right to acqult
her.
There was not sufficient evidence
against her to Justify conviction. st the
same time her plea, or the theory of her
lawyers, that the insurance companies
were the parties who caused the deceas-
ed TO be disembowelled, is incredible.

How national sank. Are Organized.

Five or more persons may organize q
national bank, and receive their chaster
from the Comptroller of the currency.
Banks may be organized with mini
mum bapital OF fifty thousand dollars in
places Of less than six thousand inhaoi-
tants, one hundred thousand dollars
where the population does net exceed
fifty thousand, and with two hundred
thousand capital in all larger places.
Banks must own United States bonds
equal TO one-fOurth Of their capital
stock, il the capital does not exceed one
hundred aud fifty thousand, and in case
il does must own not less than nifty
Thousand dollars Of such bonds. Any
national bank may acquire and
assign to the United States Treasury,
bonds OF the United States not exceed
ing the amount of capital stock, upon
which security the Comptroller issues
circulating notes equal 20 ninety per
cent. OF the par Of such bonds. In 1868
Congress imposed ten per cent tax on
State bank circulation, which was in
tended 10 and did force il out OF exist
ence. Banks make five verified reports
of condition annually, in such form as
the Comptroller prescribes, upon post
dated notice, which reports are com
piled and reported TO Congress, and the
balance sheets published in the local
press. These reports are elaborate as
10 balance sheet and detail, and since
the books Of each bank must be so kept
as 20 furnish this Information, 1t has an
important and valuable influence In sys-
tematizing bookkeeping and unitying
methods of business. The compilation
OF these reports reflects the course
of trade and finance throughout
the country, and is of great practical
value 10 the public. Each bank is ex-
amined at least once a year by an ex-
pert examiner. appointed by the Comp
trOl.er OF the Currency and Secretary OF
the Treasury. The scope OF examina-
ton includes compliance with the law,
character and method Of business, Mt
ness Of officers, valuation OF assets, and
ascertalnment OF liabilities. National
banks are restricted 10 commercial
banking business, cannot loan upon
real estate security, and real estate
holdings are limited 10 banking neceSsi-
ties and property acquired 10 protect
the bank against loss; cannot loan upon
or own their stock, forbidden TO borrow
money 10 an amount exceeding paid up
capital, forbidden to certify checks, eN-
cept against money actually on deposit,
and forbidden to loan TO any one lndl-
vidual, corporation or firm an amount
exceeding ten per cent. OF their capital.
