The letter was clear cuongh to indi
cate ths indefinite position Mr. Cashing
occupied- It gave him a foothold in

Government, the letter was louud, but
'
was not revealed to the public until Mr.
1
loshing came ut:der nomination ot
President Grant before the Senate for
confirmation for Chief Justice. Its
publicity could only point out one rule
of action for tbe Sennto, nsmcly, that
of rejection ef the unmiuce. The plea
santer course was, however, pursued,
and Mr. Cubbing's same wa withdrawn '
by tho President, who bad not been in
formed, previous to the nomination, of
the existence of the letter indicating
Mr. Cushing's iidefiuite position on
uational affairs.
The Republican party and the people
of the United States do not desire to
have & partisan occupy the seat of t hief
Justice of the Republic. They are
clear and definite on that poiut. They
are also clear and definite in their de
sire that the man for that position shall
be one who is unmistakably committed
to the system of Northern ci i llation
as distinguished from that of Southern
civilization.
Jefferson Davis ex president of the
rebel government has had bis mind ex
ercised abuut the Credit Mobilicr Case.
That wss au ugly case, disgusting to
people of correct busi tess habits, aud
moral training, but it is supremely lu
dicrous for an abort-on like Mr. Davis
to become a critic on frauds
who while drawing his pay as a United
States Senator was plotting the over
throw of tbe government, and preparing
for war sgainst tbe authority he bad
taken a solemn oath U support.
Credit Mobilier was corrupt enough,
but it was not so corrupt as to besmear
its manipulators with blood. To use
a figure, Credit Mabilier was the com
mon thief while Mr. Davis was tbe
sneak thief and murderer. lie was
taking money as pay out of the United
States Ticasury, as a friend in the ser
vice of the government, so far as out
ward appearances indicated, and ex
preasions of fealty went, but the real
fsct of the case is, he was aneakingly
undermining the government as much
as he knew how, aud building up a new
government for himself. When protest
was ea'ered by the government, be left
tbe Senate in a defiant way, aud when
he rsacLed bis friends he scut the Sen
ate word if yen iuteifere "we'll make
you smell Southern powder, and feel
Southern steel," a half million graves
testify bow well the threat was kept.
Gory critic! Mr. Da r is should not
play the role of critiu on the bad
conduct of other men, the effect is like
that of a sci man preached by Satan.

have always entertained serious doubts
a to thr? propriety of bsnks of discount
paving interest on deposits, and am now
convlHeed that this pernicious practice

should be prohibited. Monev will al-

Withiu a few years aiany State banks
have been chartered, with tbe captiva

to attract deposits. These banks and

fur the benefit of these classes of de-
pnsitcrs. Men in charge of savings
j funds should have no personal end s to
serre; should be above teuiptatiou,
and receive their highest reward in the
good accomplished by iuJucing a sav
ing habit, which, ouce fixed, leads to
prosperity.
The objects of trust companies should
be equally specific and well defined.
Some of these cocpauies aro invested
with very extensive powurs, are the
depositories of immense sums of uuney
and charged with the keeping and man
agement of vast and important trusts.
It should te the duty of the State to
6ee that their affairs are administered
with fidelity, uot only to the individu
als who confide ia their management,
bnt to the public who are interested in
the security and stability of these com
panies as barriers to wild speculation
and its consequent financial anics.
Allow luc to suggest, therefore, that
all State banks, savings funds and
trust companies be made sul j"ct to the
examination of a committee appointed
by proper authority ; that these insti
tutions be required to publish quarter
ly statements. Under oath, cf the
amount of their assets an t liabilities
aud the names of their officers; that
by a goii-ral law their stockholders be
made personally liable for double the
auioaut of block held by them ; and
that they be compelled to have con
stantly iu their vaults a cash reserve of
teu por cent, of their uet liabilities.
These examinations, reports and re
strictions cauuot be hurtful to institu
tions of established credit and Ligh
character, while they will disclose the
unsoundness or mismanagement of those
that ought not lo exist.
THE EXEMPTION LAW.
The act of ISl'J exempting a certain
amount of the property of a debtor
from levy and sale, on execution or dis
tress for rent, was intended for the wise
and humane purpose of protecting his
family from sudden and absolute want.
This benevolent design is, however,
often defeated, and the law practically
nullified, by the harrasscd debtor wav
ing the benefits of the act to meet the
exactions of his creditor. Do not
siund policy and humanity demand a
supplement to this law that will forbid
a debtor having a family waving ths
btuefic of the exemption, so that a
househoIJ may not be ahorn, in an in
stant, of all the necessaries of life by
reason of the weakness, recklessness or
misfortune of its Land, or ti satisfy the
greed ef a grasping creditor ?
