National Banks and Their ures.
Thb failures of national banks wMoh from
time to time occur snow that this form of
tanking Institutions is not exempt from tlie
usual laws of finanoe, and must pay tho
penalty of reckless or fraudulent management
the same as all others. There is, however,
this great and saving difference between the
failures of national banks and all others that
the country has previously had, viz., that the
value of the circulation remains absolutely un
impaired. The noteB of a broken national
bank are Just as good and pass as current as
those of a solvent bank. Under the old sys
tem, the failure of a bank was instantly fol
lowed by a depreciation of its notes, and fre
quently their entire loss. A man received
bills in the ordinary course of business, and
perhaps the next day found them worthless
on his hands. Frequently, just before the fail
ure of a bank its entire circulation would be
put out in some distant community. In
Kansas, in the year 1859, for a few weeks
before the failure of several Illinois banks,
there was a sudden influx of their bills, which
found their way pretty well into circulation,
and were nearly a dead loss in the hands of
the people. Such instances were common
throughout the entire West. Under the Na
tional system this great evil is wholly avoided.
No matter where a National Bank bill was
issued, whether in Maine or Minnesota, the
holder knows that it is good, and thatj no
failure of the bank can discredit it. If tho
National system had taught us nothing more
than the secret of maintaining a uniform and
absolutely safe currency throughout the ooun
try, it would have conferred a great blessing
upon the poople.
But the failure of a national bank involves
its depositors in loss. It was the same under
the old system. A man who trusted the safe
keeping of his money to a bank took the risk
of the bank's failure. A depositor and a note
holder evidently do not stand. upon equal
footing, and ought not to. Depositors usually
reside in the immediate neighborhood of the
banks which they trust, aud are supposed to
have the means of knowing something of their
responsibility and trustworthiness. The bill
holders, however, are more likely to live hun
dreds or thousands of miles away, and with no
possible means of knowing the standing of the
banks whose notes they find themselves, by
the ordinary course of business, foroed to
take. It therefore seems proper that the
bill-holder should be thoroughly proteoted
by the Government under whose anthority
the banks are permitted to issue that
which takes the place of money. But
it may well be doubted whether some
modification of the banking law, which shall
secure more safety to depositors, be not justly
demanded. As a matter of fact, the publio
have but very little means of knowing any
thing concerning the solvency of our banking
institutions, or of the manner in which they
are conducted. The capital of a bank may be
wasted, and the bank itself on the point of
failure, and its depositors remain in utter
ignorance of the faot. It seems, in the case of
the Farmers' and Citizens' Bank of Williams
burg, which has just failed, that not even the
directors were aware of its condition, one of
them having deposited some twenty-six thou
sand dollars of his own funds with it only a
few days before its failure. The stockholders
were in a similar condition of ignorance.
Everything had been left to the management,
or rather mismanagement, of the President.
Such instances as this show that there is a de
fect in the system itself. Some means should
be devised whereby the depositors could be,
to a certain extent at least, guarded from loss.
J5anka are publio institutions, ana iney snouia
"be so regulated by law as to afford the highest
security to those dealing with them.
Sheridan at St. Louis.
Thb people of St. Louis gave General Sheridan
a reception last night of which he may well be
proud. They turned out by thousands, and
the enthusiasm was unbounded. Andrew
Johnson's persecution of this gallant and merl
torious officer only serves the more to endear
him to the people. He was prevented from
coming to Washington, lest the splendid re
ception he was sure to receive everywhere from
the masses should be too publio and open a
condemnation of his removal. General Grant
was right when he protested against Sheridan's
removal as contrary to the will of the people.
The Montana Election.
Thk Democrats are taking great comfort to
themselves over the election of a delegate in
Montana. The truth is, Montana was settled
mainly during the war, and was the general
rendezvous all through the war for deserters
draft-fikedaddlers, and Rebel sympathizers
generally. Thousands of these classes went
from Missouri alone. Of course, it has always
been "Democratic."
Onr State Finances.
Thb proclamation of Governor Geary shows
that our State debt has been reduced nearly
two millions of dollars during the past year
Our State finances are being admirably
managed, and the credit of the Commonwealth
atnrA hicher than it does to-day. So
IU V V ajwwv - O
much for a Republican administration.
Almost In the Maelstrom.
At the reoent National Convention of Spirit
ualists, held in Chioago, the following resolu
tions came up for consideration:
-Whetvat, In a recent numbor ofth Binnt there
wiu an address to the clilr.ni.s of the United Hlaiei hy
the Third Oonntitullonal Uonvntton of 8tlrltuiU's,
In which occurred the following langiiitire: 'Hefore
we, as Splritimllsts, will consent to have the Infalli
bility of I he Hlhle. thedeltv of Jesus, and the political
authority of these quondwm frleuds of Mod crammed
down our souls as part of the (onvtltut'oa of onr
reiiuu'lc, we will fight till hiucgardn are Korixd with,
the upon, and of this we give all timely and am pi a
notli e:' therefore
"XrjMhm, That the above declaration misrepresents
the tsplruunlisis ol the country, who are law-HOlding
citizens, and would not liiHUKurat rehf lllnn and civil
w ar because ol obnoxious amendments to the (Joustl
tutlun by the reqiitnlie two-ililrds o( the country: and
alter the experience or rebellion, blood, and suff rln
which we Lave witnessed for the laH few years It III

ness or war as a
remedy lot grievances, real or
Imaginary
After an animated debate they were adopted
by a small majority. Great heavens t How
near the ship of state was to drifting into the
maelstrom, and we not aware of the danger.
Suppose the resolution had been defeated.
Then would we have had another cruel war.
The "buzzard would have been gorged with
spoils." A new rebellion would have been
inaugurated, and we tremble to think of the
result. We would have had to fight with
chairs and tables and pomade pots. Our fur
niture would be turned against us. Truly,
every house would be divided. We would
have had a daily skirmish with a disloyal
sofa, and a nightly battle with a rebellious
bed, and our lives would have been a burden.
Yet, sleeping in innocence, we passed within
sight of Scylla and within a stone's throw of
Charybdifl, and dreamed not of our danger.
Ukobatefol and Unkind. The lash of the
Herald is laid over the shoulders of the un
happy President, and to-day a well-written
article, reaching the acme of the sarcastic, is
given by Bennett, in whioh he reiterates his
demands for Mr. Johnson to resign. If he
accedes, James Gordon says that he will rank
with Curtius, Virginius, and Regulus. But
let him speak for himself:
"One course Is left open that may not only
retrieve bis character ana save bis name In the
history of tlie remarkable events of this period.
but that may give him a present, victory over
ins opponents, mis is ni resignation, and re
tirement from office. It may suem silly absurd
even to counsel him to such a step; but it U
more likely to seem so to the small reasuuera
ol party cliques than to tho whose thoughts
take a wider range. If Mr. Jounsoii will rise
above the political accidents uud exoltemeuts
that now follow their daily round iu his life, he
has the mind to uudersloud ttiat tnis aut,
would be a pt on of deep political
sagacity and manly dignity, as far
as it touched his own personality, and a
piece of clvlo heroism as it might affect- the
position of the Southern Slates. Suppose eveu
that he became a sacritioe what then? Can he
hope to do anything nobler iu office, though he
remained a century, than be would lu going
out with the fame of another Curtius closing
tip with his person the gulf that endangered
the State? who canuol see that the stern
father Virginius, though he lost some years of
uengnt in wnai ue loved, savtU bis daughter
forever In the fame of a great act done lu the
cause of virtue? And did not KegultiB, thinking
more of his country than of his own ease or
pleasure, and counselling ogalnst the course
that would have set him free, provide infinitely
better for his own honor than he would nave
done by heedlug the fcmall advice of Iriends
who could not see beyond the morrow?"
What Do They Do With Them? It is a
curious thing in politics to notice the "little
pickings" which fall to the share of the
holders of seats in all representative bodies.
It matters not what party is in the ascendant,
the result is the same. It matter not whether
it be a national senate or a city council, the
same general peculiarities are visioie. in
view of the following report of expenditures
for 1806, found in Doc 30, U. S. S., the ques
tion is pertinent, "Do Senators intend to spend
their after lives in retail stores? Without
comment, we give a portion of the list of per
quisites:

We are not inquisitive, but we would really
like to know what a United States Senator can
do in one session with 22 pairs of scissors,
aided by! 14 shears. Probably the extracts
out from the newspapers for use wear out the
36 cutting machines, as well as the 18 knives.
If so, the Senators are dreadful hard on the
steel.
Thb Mains Election. As was anticipated,
the eleotion held yesterday in Maine shows
small Democratic gains. In this we see no
cause either for sorrow - or surprise. The
result was not doubtful. It was well known
that Governor Chamberlain would, without
question, be reelected. Hence the canvass
was conduoted with but little energy, and a
general apathy pervaded the radical ranks.
The issue of the Liquor law was also used by
the opponents of the State administration and
had its effect. A natural consequence ensued,
and we have a decreased majority. When the
national topics have no great and absorbing
interest, the party lines in a State grow ex
tremely lax, and local questions arise which,
without really altering the strength of either
party in a great oontebt, yet seem to indicate
a change. But so soon as the excitement of a
national battle arrives, we find the wanderers
returning to their accustomed plaoes, and the
old majorities are once more rolled up so
that the losses in California and Maine will
not, we anticipate, affect in the least the
status of those btates in 18U3.
The Scull Race, yesterday, for what is
termed the championship of the United States,
came off on the Hudson, aud resulted in a
decision in favor of llamill. It Is utterly
impossible for us to tell, by the reports, who
was responsible for the accident which terml
nated the race. It seems to us a mistake
liable to prove fatal to athletio sports in Ame
rica, that they must always be attended with
betting and gambling, so as to render them
almost disreputable. As with base-ball, so
with rowing and riding, and unless the evil be
remedied, all such healthful sports will be left
entirely to the hlacKieg ana me jockey.
Yebtrrpat New York city was afflioted
with a boiler explosion exactly similar to the
Sansoni street disaster in our own oity. The
engine whioh exploded was nsed In a scroll
and fanoy-work saw mill, and so was ours.
The acoident appears to have happened from a
similar cause to ours, and the disastrous
result was the same. In view of these two
accidents, following so close on each other,
and both in the same kind of faotory, it would
be well to inquire whether the safety of our
citizens does not demand that boilers subjected
to a heavy pressure Bhould be erected out of
the thickly built portion of our city. The
"boiler inspectors" should give the matter
their early attention, and report what is neoes
sary in the premises.
Wb noticb in several of the wards of the
city two tickets running, each claiming to be
Republican. Such a division as we refer to is
found in the Twenty-sixth Ward and some
others, and threatens to lose us those wards.
No right-minded Republican will hesitate for
a moment in any such contest. The regular
nominee, unless he be a remarkably bad man,
should receive the support of every member of
the party. Votes cast for an independent, are
really cast for the Democratio ticket.

The Taylor Family. Au English paper says
"Rev. Isaac Taylor, minister ot the Congre
gational Church at Ongar, was the father of a
remarkably literary family. Mr. and Mrs. Tay.
lor were both somewhat voluminous writer?
Mr. Taylor having published some twenty vol
umes, and Mrs. Taylor eight. Four of their
children addicted themselves to literature. Mrs
Taylor and her daughter Jane published con
jointly a volume of correspondence. Jane Tay
lor and Ann Taylor (tbe late Mrs. Gilbert), in
addition to the well-known 'Hymns for Infant
Minds,' published jointly seven works; Mrs,
Gilbert solely three, and Jane Taylor also three
Jeffreys Taylor, their brother, published eigh
teen volumes of tales, poems, etc.; Isaac Tay
lor, the author of 'The Natural History of
Entbubiasm,' published nearly thirty volumes,
besides innumerable separate articles and
papers. Tbe son of tbe latter, the biographer
of the family, has published three or four vol
nines. Mr. Josiah Gilbert, tbe son of Ann
Taylor, is the accomplished author of 'The
Dolomite Mountains;' so that altogether the
Taylors of Ongar and their family have given to
the world some ninety-six volumes an almost
unique instance of literary endowment and
activity, especially considering the great merit
of many of these works and the popularity they
have attained."
