BANKING REFORM.

Chairman Walker, of the House Com
mlttee on Banking and Currency, says
that committee has in its posses
bank system prior to 1860, and the ma
tional banking system since that time.
Also that the object OF the committee
will be to frame a national system that
will be as liberal as that of the old
state banks, and yet secure the note
holder as thoroughly as he is now Sc
cured. From this we are led to infer
that Mr. Walker is still welded to a
national banking system, and that any
reform bill the committee may report
will be based upon that system.
Here the committee will find them
who contend that the government should
be entirely divorced from banking. How
ever, if Mr.. Walker and his committee
can succeed in giving us a system with
The features he has indicated, and at
the same time. safeguard the currency
issue from sudden contraction. the coun-
try would doubtless be willing to COM
promise on it.
Reform embracing the liberality OF the
old State bank system, including its
elastic currency feature, and the pro-
lection to the note-holder of the national
bank system. is what both the business
and agricultural interests Of the coun-
try demands. However, strong may be
the argument against having national
string attached TO a system OF this cha
racter; and, however sound may be as a
general financial principle the conten-
ton that government and banking
should be absolutely ASSOCIATED. the
proposed change. reform, or remodelling
would be an Infinite Improvement upon
the present system.

Norfolk and Richmond.
Observation-Disclosures Herald)

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS lch1iNJ
It is surprisingly strange that the cities
OF Norfolk and Richmond do not make
some special effort TO get a poruon OF
the immense freights that are constantly
being shipped from the prosperous ana
productive Rappahannock valley. baiti'
more has for years been the metropolis
into which these large freights have been
emptied. There is no reason subastrai
why those two cities should not receive
great benefit fIom this prosperous sec
ton OF Virginia.
1t cannot DO that they are ignorant
of the large volume OF traffic furnished
annually by this section of Tidewater
Virginia--then. why Is 1t that they are
so utterly Indifferent 10 their own inte-
rests?
Norfolk and Richmond should arouse
from their lethargy.

copied by the Cubans. According, how

Is n case of the wish being father to
the thought. Acceptance of the reforms
would mean a loss Of prestige and large
salaries to the insurgents representa-
tives here, who have been literally sup
ported by contributions from Cuban sym

OF the members OF the junta anent this
matter do not amount TO much, seeing
that the only men that will be treated
with touching the reforms are the Cuban
leaders in the field. The junta, IL is
asserted. has no authority TO say what
the insurgents would or would not do.
