The greatest liquidation of the national debt, which will call in the government bonds, will of course necessitate the replacing of some other securities for the na tional banks. This fact, coupled with a growing demand from the people to be relieved from the bur densome expense of the national hanking system, demands someac tion from congress upon the sub ject. A bili has been offered by Wilkins, of Ohio, and an amend ment by Dunn, of Arkansas, that seems to have merit in it. The Chronicle says : "The amendment permits any national banking association to de posit gold and silver bullion with the .treasurer or assistant treasurer of the United States, in amounts of not less than $10,000, and to re ceive therefor certificates in de nominations of $o, $10,20. 50,100 or $500, receivable in all parts of the United States for customs, tax es and all public dues, and legal tender for all debts except where coin is expressly stipulated. The amendment also includes the stop page of the monthly coinage of sil ver dollars under the Bland bill, and authorizes the secretary of the treasury to cause coinage from time to time of standard silver dollars and gold coins, from bullion depos ited under this act, in amounts sufficient to supply any demand that may arise for coin circulation or to pay coin obligations of the government. It cannot be said with certainty from a mere telegraphic summary of such a bill what its precise ob ject or ultimate purpose may be : but it seems to be the result of an amicable an angenient between the national bank men and the silver men. ,The national banking sys tern appears ta have gained a firm foothold in the east,and it does not seem practical at this time, even were it wholly desirable, to dis lodge it. On the other hand, it i seems to be universally accepted in the United States that it is best for the nation that silver shall not be demonetized; and so a middle ground appears to have been sought whie i shall afford standing-ground f- both interests, the silver inter est and the national bank inter est." The feature of the amendment that Trill commend itself, is that there will be no tax upon the peo ple to pay the interest that the se curity bonds now on deposit draw. The bullion not being subject to in terest. The legislatures find some means to relieve the people from the burdens of the present banking system, but still retain the present secure plan of redeeming the circu lation. The people want the se cure bank circulation but they do not want to have to pay too high for it. The Chronicle thinks the inter, national exposition, which will be held in Washington in 1892 to com memorate the four-hundredth anni versary of the discovery oi Ameri ca, should surpass that of 187r, which was by all odds the most effective affair of the kind ever held up to that time. - The people of the United States should be able to to show that thev have made a great deal of progress in the inter val between 1876 a...! 1S92. Which is certainly the case, for the centen nial exposition gave a great impe tus to the mechanical arts ot our country. Perhaps as deserving an object as appeals to Congress for aid may be found in the one mentioned in disDatches from Albuquerque, New i Mexico, which states that work on the preliminary survey for the Me- 6a canal will be begun at once, j This canal is to be thirty feet wide at the top and eighteen feet at the ; bottom, with, a depth of six f :eV and to run a distance of 142 miles, tapping the Rio Grande at a point north Ot the Jornada aei iUeeilO, and reioinillg the river at a point ' J below El Paso, Texas. Immense storage reservoirs are to be built along the line of this gigantic irri gating ditch, and the supply of water will be practically without limit. It is estimated that at least 1,500,000 acres of land now wholly useless will be reclaimed and brought under cultivation by means of the water supplied from this canal. Works of this kind certain ly deserve a recognition at the hands of congress, and promise more actual benefit than building navies or erecting immense fortifi cations. The actions of our public servants in the capital is a subject of inter est, but whether the Alta 1 a? truly photographed them or not is a question. Probably its machine took them ' a little away when it says that the attitudes and occupa tions of U. S. senators, while en gaged in intellectual incubation make an interesting study. One sits in his chair on his shoulder blades and rolls paper in his finger. Another chews a string, probably to prove the pudding. A third twhl.s his senatorial thumbs, and a fourth uses the most distant spittoon as a target. Of Sandwich Islanders the Alta says : The Maoris of Kew Zealand are believed to be the finest of abo riginal races. They are rapidly civilizing. They are now Maori members of the colonial parlia ment. They are natural orators, and addreas the body in their own language, the government furnish ing interpreters. The Maoris are very industrious, and get rich by practicing the arts and following the callings of civilizatian. iRrsii wants to reform the youth of our country and gets at it thus ly : The youth of this country ,long ago, committed to memory a great historical fact in this form : "Humpsy duuipsy. col. Johnson Ki'led Tecumseh " But now it is shown by some digger in old records that Col. Whitely helped do it. Therefore, we must add : ".Uiithtly, lii'htly, Col. White'v Ki led him sliijntlv." iiki.
