Oni National Finances.
To the Editor of The Tribune
Sur.: A friend has sent me a slip from
your z Weekly,containing the Tribune's re
ply to my letter on the subject of national
finances.- •
My high respecVfor the Editor; the pa
per, and its readers, - prompts me to a te-,
joinder Which may contain a little more
clearly ;fie exact itatement of the question
at issue between us.
My most earnest desire is that the gov
ernment shall fully, honestly, and exactly
meet every one of its obligations, accord
ingto the Exact and equitable condition
of every contract it has made with its
creditors. I would advocate nothing' hort
of this, and justice and good faith require
nothing more.
I asserted that the five-twenty bonds
were payable as to their principal in cur
rency, and not in gold. This the Tribune
denies, and insists that they are payable
in gold.
The whole question is, what was the
contract between the government and its
creditors? _ _ .
The first $50,0 . 00,000 loan of August,
1861, was issued at 7.30 iutere,st—princi
pal and interest payable in gold—was so
taken and so paid. When the five-twenty
loan. bill was passed, it, established the in
terest
at six per cent., payable in gold,
but. said nothing as to the currency in
which the principal was to ho paid.
When the five-twenty loan was before
Congress, Judge Spalding, of Ohio, asked
Mr. Stevens, Chairman of the Committee
on Appropriations, who reported it, if the
principal of these bonds was payable in
gold, as well as the iuterest ? To alhich
Mr. Stevens replied, that the principal was
not payable in gold.
At the same session, when the five
twenty loan bill was passed, the legal
lender act, was also passed, providing for
the issue of what , are now known as
"greenbacks." It was therein provided
and so•printetLon the back of every note
that it is legal tender for every debt pub
lic and private, except duties on imports
and the interest on the public debt. If it
was not to be received for principal of the
public debt ? why except the interest ?
Besides, the act made it receivable by
the United States , for all its loans, and
speCially convertible into five-twenty
bonds.
Again, in the following Congress, while
a portion of the five-twenty loan was yet
untaken ' another ten-forty loan was au
thorized, at five per cent. interest; both
principal and• interest of which, by the
terms of the act, were made payable in
gold.
Now, if it was the contract of the gov
ernMent that the six per cent. five-twenty
bonds were, interest and principal, pay
abe in gold, although directly the con
t rary was stated on their face, why was it
that the government offered a ten-forty
loan at Eve per cent:, interest and princi
pal both payable in gold ?
In other words, how could the govern
ment expect the five per cent. gold-pay
able and gold-bearing loan to be taken
np, when it had the six per cent, gold
payable and g old-bearing loan still before
the country?
Yon say that the Tribune was largely,
zealously instrumental, at the request of
government, through its agents, in per
suading the people to let the, government
have their money for these bonds. We
assured them„ day after day, that every,
one would be paid in full - in coin—prin°
cipal and interest.
Now, the ten-forty loan was put upon
the market by Jay Cooke, as the agent of
the Treasury , andlf you will, consult the
files of the Tribune containing the adver
tisethent of that loan, you will find that
Jay Cooke advertised the ten-forty loan
as the only loan of the government, the
principal and interest of which was pay
able in gold.
I have not seen that advertisement in
the Tribune, but it was so advertised; and
I assume Jay Cooke took advantage of so
valuable a medium of advertising as your
paper, to make known that important fact
of the desirability of the ten-forty loan, as
he
. c.ertainly did so advertise in other pa-
Pqa•
You further.say: "General Butler ut
tered no word of dissent then," e., when
the loan was,upon the market. True, be
caw there was no occasion. And still
another, and perhaps equally available
answer—General Butler at that time had
other public interests in another, branch
of the service_ to contemplate and try to
serve. ,
Again: Yon do. not deny that this five
twenty loan, in whatever it is payable, is
now due at the option of - the United
States. That is, the,five.yeara have pass
ed at the end of which, by their terms,
the United States reserved the right to
pay them; and the government has the
:right to pay them to-day in whatever cur
rencythe contract calls for—whether gold
or paper.
If these bonds are payable in gold, why
are theyselling at from 108 to 112 in cur-:
Tetley when gold is worth 143 to 145.?
thelTnited States should now choose
to exercise its right to pay them—(which
would seem to be itvise, as they are untax
able,4o that their interest is, in fact, from,
one to three per cent. higher than six per
cent., to the bolder)---in that case why
should the government be called upon to
pay them in gold or its equivalent in cur
rency,: say 143, when anybody else can
bay them-at 1121 • ' •
why should the tax-payers be 'called
tipoin to pay the holder from 30 to 40iper
cent: more in' order to redeem these ben&
than, as they now have the, right to do,
the capitalist is: now willing to_aell_them
for to any, btfdy else ? •
Assuming , that no ma,n can dOnbt, in
view of; the *legislation of pongress, and
the v i vo relp of the contract, that these
bonds 6.6 payable in currency, my next
propcisitioli is, that. the tinited States
shall tssue a new loan upon such terms as
sound finance shall show to be most ad
vantageous, and, with the proceeds, pay
its 5-20 creditors, and thus reduce the
rate of interest, while at the same time it
keeps eiaet faith in its contracts.
" I am unable to see that this is "a
dpdge,". or "repudiation," "which is a
ginger synonym for rascality," or any.
thing "irreconcilable with common hon
esty." "These be bard words, my mas
ters." As Ido not think they add any
' thing to the strength of the Tribune's
argument upon a legal question relating
I to finance, I certainly can neither reply to
nor return them.
"only propose to reply to the specific
argument of the Tribune, and, therefore,
refrain from discussing any of the collate
ral branches of this subject.
May I ask—as the question is one of
great moment to the country—you, in
justice and fairness, to give this letter the
same conspicuous insertion in the Daily,
Weekly, and Semi-Weekly Tribune, which
you gave the attack ?
"Common honesty" would seem to re
quire this. Very truly yours,
B. F. BUTLER.

the New York Herald is responsible for
the
A ronlantie little incident has just come
to my knowledge. The facts, as given to
me, are as follows : —Two years ago, Hugh
Crawford Pollok, a young gentleman then
about 20 years old, suddenly disappeared
from his home in Scotland, -much to the
dismay of his relatives and acquaintances.
It subsequently became known that he
had come to this country with £5OO in his
pocket. .He sported about New York and
oth6r cities until his funds commenced to
run short, when, in a fit of desperation,
he enlisted in the Fifth United States
Cavalry as a private soldier, and in this
humble Capacity struggled against hard
ships and, deprivations to which he had
been wholly unused. In the meantime,
his father died some four months ago,
leaving Hugh heir to a baronetcy and a
snug little income of £5OOO per annum, or
about $25,000 in gold. The young baro
net was duty sought for, and after an ex
penditure of $BOO in advertisements, it
wrs ascertained that he was stationed at
Camp Verde, Texas, discharging the du
ties of a farrier. Colonel William S. Hill
yer, of New York,who became interested
in the case, induced Sir Frederick Bruce
to procure the discharge of Pollok, which
was promptly acceded to by Gen. Grant.
The young Sir Hugh • Crawford Pollok
has, therefore, been telegraphed for, and
has given up the occupation of shoer and
curer of horses to enter upon a Scotch
baronetcy and £5OOO a year. Such is life.
Judge Nelson and Gen. Sickles.
A South Carolinian, James Eagan, over
80 years of age, and his wife, were in Sep
tember 1865, attacked at their house by a
negro, armed with a club, and Eagan shot
the negro in self defense. This occurred
after the suppression of the rebellion, and
when Vie courts of the State, which alone
bad juriidiction of the case were in full
operation.
His case was investigated by the civil
tribunal's, and after trial, he was acquitted.
Afterwards a militartcommission assum -
ed to try him again, and he was sentenced
to imprisonment for life in the Albany
penitentiary. He was confined there un
til May 16th 1866, when Judge Nelson,
after a full hearing, discharged him on a
writ'of habeas s orpus.
But the most disgraceful part of the
transaction remains to be told. The old
man, on being discharged, returned in
feeble health to hs home, only to find his
family scattered and his little property
gone. General Sickl, re-arrested -him,
and threw him into prison.
A mare inexcnSable and tyrannical act
of military despotism cannot be imagined.
It was in wicked defiance of the judgment
of the highest federal Court and of the
Constitution of the U. S. It is creditable
to the President to state that be ordered
an immediate release as soon as he heard
of the last arrest. —Albany Argus.
Gen. C. P. Stone.
It will be recollected that early in the
war General Charles P. Stone, of the fed
eral army, who held'a picket line'of some
twenty miles on the Potomac, was sud
denly seised and thrown Into prison,with
nVeharges made against him, and after a
year's close confinement, liberated with
out explanation.
It was a most atrocious exercise of tyr
anny. General Stone, in a letter to the
Boston PCBt, contradicts a report that he
"sued Senator Sumnd for pardon"—but,
on the contrary, the letter leaves as to in
fer that he was probably put in prison at
Sumner's suggestion the General - hav
ing just previously sent him a sharp note,
against meddling with orders issued to
the troops under his command.
General Stone is a Xassachusetts man,
a graduate of West Point, and a gentle
man, of high charaC,ter. He has never
been 'able to get any. clue to the reason
fur his itripcisonment, nor answers to let
terri addressed to ; Department on the
subjeet..se-was: kept in close confine
ment—letters from his; family opened and
read befde deliiired to him, and his own
in reply permitted to go forward only at
the whim of ,his ke4er. Somebody should
he made to angrier, for such au outrage.

The committee are sorry that the notice
was so limited, and that there were no
more competitors in this class, but they
hope that this will not be the case in the
future, and that all the awards will be
hotly contested, by many' competitors.
The. committee deem it worthy of note
that the successful competitor in bearing

was a man aged seventy-three years—
showing that healthful active labor is not
always laid aside among these health• pro

them carried on our line, and we consider them gond
and reliable time-keepers. Indeed. I have great ratis.

have worn and do wear much longer without repairl
than any watches we have ever had in use on this road.
Ae you are aware, we formerly trusted to those of En
glish manufacture, of acknowledged good reputation;
but as a class they never kept time ce correctly, nor
have they•done UP good service, as yours.
In these statements I am sustained by my predeces.
For, Mr. Levris, whose experience extended over a
