It is wonderful how soon in this country we forget our great men. Five years ago no man in the nation commanded a wider influence or stood out more prominently as a representative man than Stepiikx A Dora las. Saddenly cut down in the midst or his career, he has already passed as com pletely out of the public mind as though he belonged to another age and generation. Amidst the stupendous events which have occurred since his death the momentous changes, the vast prepress in ideas both his name and his career have faded iuto compara tive obscurity. The proposed laying of the coraer-stone of a monument to be erected to Mr. Douglas memory in Chicago has been made the occa sion of a somewhat prolonged tour by the President, and will probably recall for the moment men's minds to the illustrious Indivi dual in whose behalf these proceedings are ostensibly made. It is the fashion of the times to deal in extravagant laudation of the distinguished dead. The maxim, "Be mortuLs nil nisi bonum" is almost literally followed out. Men who were fiercely denounced all their lives are as indiscriminately praised after they are dead, the denunciation and the praise often coming from the same parties. This is signally illustrated in the case ot Mra Douolab. No man was more fiercely de nounced while living none has been more highly commended since death. '1 his style of dealing with public men is demoralizing in many ways. It tends to break down that distinction between good men and bad men, between good actions and bad actions, which it is the highest interest of virtu to have maintained. Moreover, it tends to remove from the minds of public men that sense of responsibility to the judgment of the future, which in most cases is a restrain ing and elevating influence. The man who feels that he is amenable not only to the opinions of his fellows, but also to the calmer and more discriminating: voice of those who shall come after him, has in that very fact an Impulse towards the right and a restraint from the wrong. But how can this Influence be maintained, if after death no discrimination as to the acta and characters of public men is to be made, and all are to be alike the subjects of commendation 1 The closing acts in the drama of Mr. Douglas' eventful life were so errand, so unselfish, so full of all the best elements of heroism and patriotism, that it would be an ungrateful task now to review his earlier and less worthy political career. The pen of the Impartial histoiian, h jwever, will not tail to point out his Instrumentality ay, his leader shipin the overthrow of the Missouri Com promise and the passage of the Kansas Nebraska act, as one of the chief proximate causes of that fearful agitation which finally culminated in our recent terrible war. Nor can the true lover of liberty ever forget that utter Indifference to the moral character of slavery which formed the key-note of his actions through life. These, however, are the more discriminating views which history will take of the man, when the events of our times shall have fallen into their proper order and rank. For the present, we may be allowed to dwell upon that magnificent burst of patri otic feeling and action with which the illus trious Illlnoislan illumined the close of his public career, throwing into comparative -shade and f'orgetfulness all that he done and said before. Hungary and Francis Joseph. Simultaneously with the telegram from Prague announcing that peace Is regarded as a certainty (which has, however, since been consummated), another telegram from Pesth, the capital of Uuneary, brings us the Informa tion that, after the conclusion of that peace, the Emperor Francis Joskpii of Austria intends to appoint a Hungarian responsible ministry, and that the Hungarian Diet is to be formally reopened in Pesth some time during the month of September. If this in tention Is carried out,IIungary will be restored to her lull rights under a constitution, of a thousand years' standing. There is a pecu liar significance in this double announce ment. To the thouehtt'ul it reveals at once the Becret of Austria's vulnerability, and points unmistakably 10 an easy solution of the problem how a flrst-rate power like her could collapse within such a short period of lime. ! The seriea of defeats on the battle-field suffered by Austria, were owing as much to the disintegrating tlnents at work within her own limits as to the superior military ability of her enemy. At the outbreak of the war she presented the anomaly of a natlou without a nationality. Uer provinces differed widely In race, lan guage, historical tradition, and political aspl rations. The Germanic, Italian, Hungarian, and Sclavonic tendencies ware represented by these provinces respectively, and at times several nationalities were struggling In one and the same province. Since the formation 4)t that Empire, "Divide et imperd" had been the ruling maxim of the Hapsburj dy nasty to sedulously foment dimensions amongst those different nationalities the chief study of her statesmen. They were used as a check upon each other, and in cases of internal danger, artfully turned towards the oppression of the less submissive portions, of that country. A policy of doubtful honesty in Itself, it became the source of Irremediable weaknes whenever Austria was called upon to cope openly with aa enemy strong in the enthusiasm produced by a common tongue, a common history, however brief, and unity of interests. In the course of her disastrous policy.sbe succeeded in estranging every one of the provinces from the dynasty at her head. Yenetla longed for the embrace of a sister people beyond the Quadrilateral; Galicla sighed for a united Poland; Panslavia ttc tendencies gained ground more and more amongst the Sclavonic races; Hungary stood ftrmiy and unflinchingly upon the time honored Constitution which secured to her people nationality and independence. Op posed to each other, these provinces had at the same time their distinct prievances to lay at the door of the ill-fated dynasty. Bismabic was not slow to perceive th's state of affairs. He sounded the tocin of war, and success rewarded his efforts. Bui the successful ter mination of the thirty days' drama was owing quite as much to minor dramas that were being acted quietly and without ostentation within the heart of Austria itself., It is in this sense that we call attention to-day to the radical reform, or rather, restoration in Hun gory which gives that people all they con tended tor during the revolution of 1843-9. Feisdlnand abdicated in favor of Fbancis JosKPn, to evade the oath given In support of their Constitution. After a lapse of eighteen years, Fbahcis Josepu, in the day of his humiliation, by an act of tardy justice, con fesses himself a usurper, and his rule in Hun gary an illegal one. The peace of Prague is a cup ot bitterness, prepared for him by the hands of hi3 right royal brothers ; but the Diet of Pesth is a cup of humiliation which the wickedness ot the House of Hapsburg has filled for iteelt by centuries of byetemaUc misrule. j The National Credit. We have no tears that the. Government or people of the United States will ever be tempted to repudiate their financial obliga tions. The high premium which our bond command In the market is a suuicientsocurity against such a contingency, setting aside the question of our national resources as com paied with our liabilities. The world has realized the fact that tnere is no better or more desirable class of securities in which the poor and the rich alike can invest their means ; let it likewise be understood that the nation will never break faith with those who1 have reposed in its bincerity such unlimited con fidence, i Notwithstanding these commonplace truths, which are upon the lips of every one, there is and has been a persistent effort on the part of a certain class of men to lose no possible op portunity for decrying our national credit, and thereby Involving us even more inextri cably in the quagmire ct financial distress. For example, the steamer Java, which sailed from New York a few days since, carried to Europe copies of a circul ir over the signa ture of a well-known firm of brokers, in which we find the following remarkable pas sage : "These proceedings of Congress and the sub sequent action of 'Je Treasury can only be in terpreted as eonU .plating the payment in a greatly depreciated currency ot ttie 5-20 bouis of 1802. tailing due next May, which 6w exist ma laws are not payable in gold, nsr ewn in legal- lender tmenoacka, out omy in notes oj me national banks.'" I This statement bears on its face the evi dence of its utter and absolute falsity. At the time the bonds in question were issued the ational Banking system was not in exist ence. These bonds, as is the case , with nearly all of our other securities, are, by express legislation, made payable in gold. The only question now in, Shall the Secre tary of the Treasury purchase coin at a high premium, to redeem the bonds as they fall due on the first option ; or shall he wait until we have reached specie payments, as he is permitted to do, and then pay off our obliga tions without a ruinous loss to the Govern ment? The New York Iribune of, this morning has the following sensible comments on this subject : j "For atiy American banker to say to Eurooean bankers that it Is intended to redeem the issue of 1BC2 1u May next, with currency, is to assert an untrue sad mischievous statement, which will seriously injure our national credit if un contradicted. We now boo tUat if ConsrresB had pupfc'd the proper legislation, and not re-iricte1 the Treasury to the amount of reduction of cur rency, we should have been back to spoclo py nieut'' on the 1st of April next, ind after May we should at any time have bad the riuhttopay the $614,000,000 Five-twenties ot lMb'J iu com. and bave pold tbe funded loan to furnish the coin to do it with. I "Our duty is to wait, and not exercise the option ot l aying the issue of 1SC2, until ws can do it without being compelled to pay a large premium for gold, until, in fibo.t, we leacb. specie payments. Above all things, our bankers slio' lu not go abroad with danders upon the national credit, and especially with bints of national repudiation. The American securities now bid fa'r to rule foreiim markets. Every dispatch tells us of the largely-increasing de mand lor lorclpn securities. The Five-twenty s ihe favorite investment in Hamburg, and Paris, and London. We should be proud of this recognition, and think tbe men who have kept our credit so eteady and unavailable."

The New York lribune this morning says: "Money on call is abundant at 4(W)5 per cent, but the borrower is in many cases expected to take National bank notes, which are plenty on the street, and cannot bo had readily, under i C or cent, discount. In paper little doing. Many u.yers are disposed lor the moment to keep funds idle, and wait the cll'ect ot moving the crops, expecting better rates. The payments from the Treasury are large to-day, and there is a general desire not to take the National cur rency by bunks in the Clearing House, where it is loi settlements unavailable. "The payment of the temporary loan, except Clearing Iloune certltica'.es, wnich are redeem able In legal-tender, places the Treasury in a stronger position tnau it has held for a long tunc, but it may uot leave, permanently the money market to the public. Having nothing oi temporary debt to pay for some t me, there is every reason to esoect that the Treasury will, liom its excess of receipts over ex peises, accumulate cunrncy in its vaults, and iu that, way bave a conservative effect upon speculators. Gold and currency promise to accumulate to an extent to be lelt bv borrowers, and the Secretary will be tn a position to take acive though indirect t-teps in funding the cur rency. He will be atle lo holl the funded debt at a price when conversions of currency debts into it will be constant, anil in nuc!i amounts a-" to make it certain that all the 7'30 ;ll lake that oirecUonsspeedil. The Secretary has now power to dabble in Government Mucks, and bteadily net short into long debt, and can make at wul an easy or tieat money market by his manipulation ot the debt.
