nobody can tell how much circulation Is
needed in any given country at any gwen
time.
The proposition to provide for national
banks having capital OF only $4,000 each
has not the merit possessed By the pro-
position We have just touched upon United
states bonds sell too high 10 make 1t
profitable 20 bank upon so small cum az
So. 600. The interest upon this sum az
4 per cent would be too small an amount
TO bank upon--too small TO pay the run
ming expenses But all these minor ques-
lions may be safely left 10 the men who
would make II their business TO supply
the people with whatever currency they
might need.
But do these measures look TO divorce
OF the government from the banks? NO
The ideal bank is yet TO come.
In Georgia there seems 10 be some de-
mand for the repeal OF the law taxing the
issues Of State banks; but not as much de-
mand as we had supposed existed in that
state 1t IS well that due caution should
be exercised In this matter: for nobody
can foretell the manner I'm which such a
new law would affect the natlonal-bank

THE ALLEGHANY FIEND.
His Trial Commenced nj CovinSton-
Counsel Assigned Him.

CONVICTION. VA. May 5.-(speeial)-
The grand jury this morning returned
three bills Of indictment against Henry
Magruder, the negro charged with out
rageous assault upon two women and the
murder OF one near Longdale Station last
month. At go this afternoon the prl-
sOner was brought into the courtroom
and arraigned formally. He pleaded not
guilty to the charges, and having no
counsel. J. c. King, OF Clifton Forge was
assigned to defend him. Mr.. King asking
a little time for the preparation OF the
case it was laid over until tomorrow
morning.
Magruder is a small, very black negro
with a stolid rather than vicious coun'
tenance. IL is said that he has been fully
identified, and If It so proves 1t is almost
certain that there will be a hanging m
the county a short time after the court
adjourns.

General Fitzhugh Lee should be at his
post. The increasing rumors concerning
atrocities committed upon American ciu-
Zons demand the presence In Habana OF
an American representative who is capa-
BILE Of doing something more than snub-
bling American war rrespondents.-Ihe
Philadelphia Press, Republican.
General Lee has been in Washington re-
ceiving his instructions. Notwithstanding
the fact that this is the unhealthy season
In Habana. he Is ready TO take up his resi-
dence there as soon az the authorities at
Washington are ready for him to 30.
Now and then rumors are set ahoat TO
the effect that the Madrid government
will not consent to have the General act
as Consul-General at Habana, because
they consider his appointment as the ap-
polntment Of a military commissioner in
disguise. OF course, they can refuse Lee
an exequatur, but we should be surprised
If they did so. 1t would seem TO be
good policy on the part OF Spain TO con-
ciliate rather than eXasperate this coun-
try. SO we should think that the Cuban
authorities would welcome-or at least
pretend to welcome-General Lee. And
after they get acquainted with him they
will be sure to like him The only trouble
about the matter will be that 1t will be
a year or more before Fitz can tell his
stories in Spanish. as at present he is
but imperfectly acquainted with that Ian
guage

MORE CURRENCY.

Congress could not pass q more popular
law than would be one authorizing ma
tional banks to increase their circulation
20 the par value OF the United States
bonds held or rather deposited by them as
security for that circulation. There would
be no RISK whatever IN resorting TO this
method Of increasing the amount OF cur
tency controlled by the national banks
and needed In commercial circles. There
would indeed be no risk whatever
in allowing the national banks to
issue twice as much currency as
they can issue under the law

The Richmond Dispatch suggests that
the Democrats of Virginia hold special
convention in March, 1897, to deal with
the question of calling a convention to
revise the Constitution.-The Lynchburg
Advance.
The Dispatch suggests special conven-
ton in the event that the convention of
June 4th has not the time. or is not In
the proper mood, to discuss the consti-
tutional convention question. When the
delegates get to Staunton, and not until
then, will they be able to decide whether
a special convention should be called or

The fat man swung himself aboard and

The DrN-GOOIs Market.

NEW YORK. May 5.-The Journal OF
Commerce and Commercial Bulletin. In
its weekly review of the dry-goods mar
ket, says:
In the aggregate the volume Of business
transacted at first hands during the past
week has fallen short OF the total OF the
preceding week owing chiefly TO quiet
er demand during the past few days for
brown cottons. in which recent business
has been one OF the best features in the
cott0n-goods situation. Mems wear wool
lens and worsteds show an occasional Inn
proyement in prices. where quick delive-
ries OF lightweight, medium-grade fan
cies are required but are still dull and
featureless in eaA-weights. Dress goods
have been quieter than OF late.

Speaker Reed Is out OF the race
for the Republican nomination for
President of the United States, If we
Judge from the fact that he had bout
with Mr.. Boutelle on Monday. He had
before him a poor prospect, indeed Of
securing that nomination, and, having be-
come desperate. is ready TO bite off the
head Of Boutelle. or anybody else, WHO
comes between him and the said nominal
ton. Maine is too far TO the northeast,
anyhow, and cannot but be cut Off by
the aspirants from the Middle States and
the Western and Northwestern States.
Indeed, to expect Mr.. Reed TO be norni-
mated for President is to expect a most
improbable outcome of the local battles
which have been fought in behalf Of that
nomination. Mr.. Reed is not even a
dark horse.

There are several hundred Louisiana
Confederates buried in Stonewall Gene
terry. at Winchester. and some time since
a movement was started in Louisiana TO
erect a monument I'm the cemetery to
their memory. The monument will be
dedicated Saturday, June 9th, that date
having been selected with view Of en-
abling the large contingent of Louisian-
ians who are expected to take part in the
exercises to participate also in the great
Confederate reunion in this city on the oc-
casion of the meeting Of the Grand Camp
of United Confederate Veterans and the
laying of the cornerstone of the Davis
monument. Ex-Governor Nichols of
Louisiana, who lost an arm and leg and
received other wounds in the Confederate
service, has been chosen to deliver the
dedication Grafton at Winchester. In this
connection, it may be said that North
Carolina has also raised fund with
which to mark suitably the graves Of her
gallant dead resting in Stonewall Gene
terry.
