Tho Topublican majority, proviously a vory oftoctivo one, is now substantially strengthoned, and taken in con- nection with recent disngreomenss botween the Count do Chambord aud the Count of Paris, may matorinily increnso tho distanco betwoen Limsolt and tho throno of France. e Tho only foatures of goenoral intorest at the meeting of tho Common Council, last evening, wworo tho presontations of roports. The Bride- well quarterly roport showed the recoipt of £9,098.12, and an oxpenditure of £81,914.08, The number of those who have enjoyed its hospital- ity sinco last Juno is 2,199, of whom but 805 ex~ perionced it for tho firat timo, The Board of Public Works raported a total oxpondituro for the pust six montha of £3,607,407.83, divided as follows: Water fund, £425,632.12; water-tax fund, $488,180.87; soworage, $270,419.09; eower- nge-tax fund, 801,623,653 appropriation tund, £918,008.76; Oity Bridewell fund, $18,095.03. The naval fight which took placo off Carta~ gons, on Baturday last, betweon tho insurgont and Govornment vessels, resultod in tho discom~ fiture of tho latter, owing to theirbnd mansge- mont, want of offoctive co-oporation, and poor gunnory. Tho insutgont fleot finally salled pack inte the harbor, under tho protection of tho guns of the fortross, The sequol to tho gight will now bo & geuoral bombardment of Cartagons by eoa and land, which haa been officially announced in an ordor isswed by tho QGovernment commander warniug the non-com- batants to loave.

A considorablo number of the Committeo wora in favor of once more prosonting tho is« sues of slavery and tho crushing out of the Tto- bellion ; others recognized the fact that thoro wore no ‘issuos at etake in tho noxt alootion, oxcopt loosl onos; and stilt others wore rondy to make any port mn & atorm, and, thorefore, favored conlition with any- body and everybody. A motlon to call a convon- tion woa lost, but ss the action was not flual, and tho Committoo meots again on Saturdsy next, it moy bo assumod thot thoso who oro in favor of suppressing slavery and putting duwn the Rebollion will mako & dosporate stragglo in favor of having a convention. e Commissioner Gallowsy, of tho County Toard, yostorday said that tho newspapors had exagger- atod tho assossmont of Cook County ns made by the Btato Board of Equalizatlon, The nowsna~ pors havo said that tho ngsossmont of Cook County had boon incrensod by the following rates respoctively: Personal proporty Increased.. City lota increasod 7 per cont, Laud increased.. 143 per cent.. In other words, that the porsonal property sssessmont had beon raised from $32,763,630 to ©55,076,340 ; tho city lot assossmont from 890, 447,759 to §187,220,801 ; tho londs from $18,~ + 08 por cont. 546,007 to §41,173,802; aud tho total from: 8141,777,602 to $268,476,003 ; and the tax from $1,417,770 to 2,834,700, or in that ratlo, It this is an cxaggeration, Commisaioner Gallowsy can, show whoroin it is so, and our columns are open to him for the purpose, A — The bauke in Ciocinnati resumed ourronoy poymonts yosterdsy, and eoverything worked smoothly. Ono hundred and fifty thousand dol~ lara of Cloariug-Ilouso cortificates wore volunta~ rily retired. Tho doposits at the various banks woro liboral and the checking light. Tho banks aro not genorally discounting, but somo of thom taox s littlo paper ab9 to10 por cont. Op tho strost thoro wora Bomo Oporations in first-elass paper ot 13¢. per cont &. month. Inter- viowa with loading bankecs showed that doposit- ora wero in oxcess of holdors of checks, and that tho rotirgment of cortificates bad not oroated any upusual domand for cash, The burden of tho statemonts of bankers was that they were satiafied with thelr dopositors, and thoir dopos- itors with thom, and that overything was going along safely and quiot}; ] Tho recoipts ot tho Exposition lInst ovoning, for tho bouofit of tho sufforers In Memphis, will ronch nearly $16,000. It is cstimated that thoro woro mearly 15,000 porsons in attendauce, tho discropancy botween this numbor and tho amount of money recoived being explained by tho fact that large numbors of tickets were bought by poople who did uet caro fo at- tend, and yot wero suxious to svail thom- solves of this menng of contributing to this pralsaworthy charity, Tho sbove sum is tho largest that has yet boon collected ata given timo, and, in addition to the sums proviouely donated, makes o noble roturn for the handsome contribution which Momphis sont to Ohicago afler tho firo. Such acts of common humanity end eyrpathy as theao will establish a bond of followship botween the two citica which can never bo wholly sovered. —ees fFhe rotton Board ot County Commsssionera yoaterday rejected all tho lower bida for rooms for tho Recorder's offico, and sccopted tho highor ono of tho Chicago Times. 'Tho Times' bid was firat votod on and Tojocted by 7 to 8. Subse- quently, without reconsideration of tho former vote, *Buffalo” Miller ronewed the motion, changing the torm of tho loase from threo yoars to ono year and it was car- riod,—Commisalonor Harxis haviug susplolously changed bis yiews. The membors voting for tho Times building woro Ashton, Harria, Hort- fug, Pablman, Roollo, Russoll, and Miller,—all ‘Hoslng mon oxcept one. It is to bo hoped now that tho Times will ropudiate its part of tho contract and oppoeo the Hosing ticket savagely. Buch & course would not be out of the lino of precedents in that quarter, and would sorve the rotton Board of County Commissionora right. R ——— Judgo Blatchford, of the Unitod Btates Dies- trict Court of Now York, yestordsy modified tho injunction sufficiently to allow Blako DBrothors to soll the socuritios held for money loaned to George B. Grinvell & Oo., on condition that they elinll mako & sworn statemont of tho ealos to tho Court, snd awalt such actiou a8 an Assignoe in Bankruptoy shall tako ; provided such sn As- gignoo is appointod to admiuister upon the assats of Goorge B. Grinnell & Co. In the samo Court, yosterdsy, William Beott, ot Erio, Pa,, filed o potition that Konyon Cox & Co., of which firm Daniel Drow is o part- ner, bo adjudicated bankrupt, the potition Bob- ting forth that Mr. Drow is placing incum- braucos upon his property, in tho ehape of mortguges, to defraud his creditors. Judge Blatehford issued an order requiring the firm to ghow causo why it should not be adjudicated tonkeupt. —— Tho rocont sosslon of the Evangelical Alliance In New York seoms to have oponod Pandora's box. Tho lttor of Dr. Tozer, commonting upon tho propriety of tho action of tho Doan of Oan- torbury in cowmuning with Prosbyteriana snd othor seots, lug already been published. Tho Doan of Oantorbury, however, was not singular in this respoct. Ou Bunday last, Rov.

As thore Is no general olection In Novembor, tho olections to-day hinvo little significanco ontsido tho States in which thoy are held, but they will possoss moro or less ot intoreat as showing the progross mado by local partlos opposed to monopolics and corruptions, and tho condition of public soutiment in thoso Btatos with roferouce to the lving Issucs of the day. THE BUPROSED rfig‘m&flfi_ OF DEFOS- The Natlonal Qurrency nct requires & roserve of 25 por cont of tho aggrogato amount of do- poelts aud olroulation of overy National Bank. It fa roported that Prosidont Grant, nmong othor rocommendations for financial logislation, will suggest to Congross.tho ropeal of this soction so far 88 it rolatos to deposits, and will rocommend tho roquiremont that tho reserve on tho noto clroulation shall bo gradually changod fnto gold. This is o stop in tho right diraction, and partioularly that portion of tho recommondation which suggoats that National Banks shall not bo raquired to hold a resorvo on account of dopos- | its, Tho ropeal of this requiroment was advoeated - by Tur Trioxs ood like- wiso in tho columns of tho Financier during tho monatary stringency of last sutumn and winter, and is In accord with the praotico which has alwaya existed among the soundest financial institations in Ohristondom, the Scotch banks. Thero 18 a radieal difforonco betweon the oharactor of o noto circulation and that of do- posit accounts. Itis proper and pocossary, 80 long a8 tho Govornmont provides & eystom of banking on the faith of the nntional oredit, that it should not only Eecuro, the ultimate con- vortibility of National Bank notes, s it doos by roquiring o doposit of bonds, but slso domand ronsonablo gocurity for the immediate converti- bility of such proportion of theso notes as aro likoly to bo prosonted st once. This can be dona ouly by roquiring the banks to keop on hand o cortain propor- tion of thelr oirculstion in gold or logal-tonder for the rodomption of their notes, National Banlk notes circilato all over tho country. Thoso of Chicago banks may bo found in Maino or in Florida, and vice versa. Under tho present law, thoy aroe taken every- where, without roferonco to the location of tho banks, on tho falth of tho Governmont, and ib is nccessary that they sbould be mado mbso- lutely good in the muonor indicated. It s dif- foront with a doposit [account. This is & mero ‘business transaction batwoon bankors and thelr customars, ‘Tho only way in which tho Gov- ornment could afford absolute protoction of do- posita wonld be to roquire banks to retain all tho doposits in their vaults, which, a8 a mattor of - courso, womld rendor banking uttorly iri- poseiblo 85 & businoss. On sny other basis than this, tho Govornmont cannob fully protect dopositors, and i is in tho nature of a docoption, or cortainly o delusion, to mako o protense of doing it. It is in overy way bottor that depositors should understand that they must thomsolves decide on tho security which o bank farnishes them for tho monoy con- fided to Its caro. There aro other good reasons in political oconomy, and in the practica of tho banks of all commorcial countries, why thero should bo no compulsory resorve of doposiis, Briofly stated, tho roservo helps tojprecipitato pauicsin timos’of money stringeney by locking up o portion of tho monoy which might reliove tho stringency, and is utterly insufficiont to meet the demands upon tho banks whon Lho panto comes. Itis o cast- iron barrier which opposes tho intorests of the publlo on both sides. Thero are cortain seagons of tho yoar when there is o necossity for o largor volume of curronoy than at othor sea- sons. It was estimated during tho financial stringonoy of tho fall of 1873 that, If tho Na- tonal Banks had beon pormitted to put out thoir rosourcos, they could have added $100,000,000 to vhoir loans sud discounts, which would have re- Yovod the distress of tho morchants, contributed to tho more rapid movemont of the crops, and thoroby brought tho country back to ita nor- mal condition. It 15 apparent that tho prohibi- tion put by law upon tho Notional Banks, of londlng boyond 75 per cont of thoir doposits, is calculatod to. produco o paplo b gny timo when money i tight. This would be bad onough by itself, but it bocomes worso In view of tho fact that, whon the panio comes and tharo ia a wild rushi upon tho banke, the resorvo lsworthloaa,bscnlisn it is Inndequato to pay all tho dopositors. Itis an attompt to substitute an arbitrary rule for the judgment of business mon ina mattor of purely private concorn. Wo havo said that tho practico of tho best banking communitics is opposed to the estab- lishmont by law of an infloxible reservo. The Beoteh banks, which aro unquestionably the goundest and tho best in the world, aro subject- od to no such restraint, ‘hero aro twolvo prin- clpal and 700 branch banke in Scotland, with £300,000,000 deposits, aud yob they hnve boon able to suetain themsclves during all the financlal crisos that bavo visited the United Kingdom since 1702, Even whon tho Dank of ©Eogland has beon forced to suspond, the Heotch banks lavo held up tholr heads ss proudly and fimly asin times of tho groatest cnse in finaucinl circles, Tho roagons why thoy have boen able to weathor all the financial storms aro two, viz: (1) Thoy aro good baukors, attond closely to their business, atudy tho condition of tho country, and know the characteristics of the pooplo; and (2) thoy have a capital (tho only reserve that {s tangiblo and roliablo, beonuso it belouga to tho bauk) in ade- quate proportion to tho liabilitios thoy assumo. ‘Thoso aro thoir safoguards, and thoir escapo In all financie! panies s in no wise to Lo attributed to a rosorve kopt for tho protoction of depoal- tors, excopt a8 it constitules a feature of thelr managoment varinblo acoording to circumstan- con, nud depending altogothor upon privato judg- ment, s Tho Ban Trauckioo Ohronicls cstimates that Califoruia will produco this yoor 13,000,000 gullons of winej 2,000,000 pounds of grapes for tablo uko, and 250,000 pounds of raisins. e sido thoso thoro will bo & largo product of brandy, Theso it calla infant industrics, nod domands that Congroas ehall **utimnlato and on- courngo tho viue-growing and Drandy-making intoresta of Callfornia by giving thom absoluto oxemption from tnxation” If tho tax on brandy Do takon off, why not on whisky? Audif it bo taten off wino, why not off boor? Tho tax on tmported winos nnd brandics {a vory large. Tho tax on imported brandies ranges from 121 to 400 per conit ; on wines from 60 to 90 por conty and on ralslus 74 por cont, This ought cortainly o * protection® onough to tho infant manu- faoturas of wine and brandy. e a—— ) THE EVANGELIOAL ALLIANCE, Tho Evangolieal Allianco, whioh was in session Inst wook in Now York, hns adjourncd. Tho English, Irlsh, Scoteh, Frehich, Gorman, sud Swles dologates, as woll as thoso roprosenting varlous parta of Asia and Africs, have liad their &ay, and wil go back to ihelr homes to foll tho wondrous talo how all theso people, ropresonting 5o many and varjed croads, had .detormined 'to forgot all thinga savo their common Olristianity, and live in unity and harmony . evormaro. The grand climax of unification was in tho grooting sont to Bishop Relukens, of tho Old Oatholio Church of Gormsny, who, on his parh, in his own ochurch,” dally offored high masa for tho succoss of tho ‘umion of Ohristians. It sooms, howover, that, whilo the proceodings on thelr surfaco showod no differonco of opinion, thore wag somo dissat- iafaction. No lesa than soventy membors pro- tostod ngalnet the racognition of the 014 Oatho- lics ns purt of the Ohristian fomily, and wore for loaving Poro Hysolntho end Bishop Reinkens out in tho cold. . Nor was tho discontent conflned tothis, Tho Dean of Cantorbury attonded tho ‘commuuion gorvico in & dissonting (Presbytorian). chureh, and against this ack tho Rov. Dr. Tozer, Bishop of Zanzibar, nob only protested, but complained of it in @ speoial lettor to tho Episcopal Dishop of Now York. Bishop Tozor questionod the proprioty of such ‘an act by an English Churchman in tho Diocoso of Now York, and suggested that tho offending Dosn was wanting in courage to do ¢ho samo act in bis own Cathodral Town in England. From Bishop Tozor's standpoint, ovangolical unity and concord do not oxtond to permitting an Episcopal clorgyman to commomorato tho Lord’s Supperin s Presbyterian church. “From tho standpoint of tho seventy other complain- ing dologates, whoeo protoata tho Boorotary sup- pressed, ovangolical Christianity cannot tolerate & brothorhood with tho 01d Catbolics who have rojoctod tho dogma of Papal infallibility. Though tho Evangolical Alliance did not in Eheir, public procoedinga nor in thoir spocches montion thom, we supposo Wwo are to assumo that tho largo communitics known as Unitarisus and Univerealista are still placed boyond the ‘bar of Chrlstian unity, Liko tho Jows, infidels, and Papists, tho Universalists and Unitariana will have to wait a little longer. Tho Allianco mado ono grand stride toward toleration whon thoy sdmitted tho Catholics of Gormany, Who liave drawn a lino between thomselves and Papal infallibility and supremscy. - ’.l'he‘_‘;pm’t‘_eab of tho minority cannot bo conslderod; tho notion of tho majority in » congress of peace, love, aod Christian followship must, of course, bo accoptod as tho action of tho whole body. Tho 0ld Catholics, therefore, boiug admitted ag mombors of the Evangelical Alliance, thero will Do an ond to tho rolontiess war upon the genoral principles of tho faith of thet Churel. Heving gono thus far; having wolcomed Bishop Reiokens with_his apostolic authority; baving ombraced tho Dean of Cantorbury; having al- ready admitted tho Greolk Ohureh, it is, porhaps, a8 much 28 could be oxpocted of the Allisnce ot this sossion. A yoar henco, when the fruits of this season's liborality will be visible, when the beauty and majesty of the onlarged cirole of Christian unity sholl bo conceded and sdmired of all men, and when tlie world shall bo drawn to tho Allianco by that gravity which draws smallor bodics to the groater, thore will bo room for o still furthor expansion of Christian chaity, and opportuulty for wolcoming other bodica herotofore excludod bocauso of such diversitics of opinion as have moparated tho Unitarinn from tho other Christian socts. "Tho magnanimity of tho Allisnco in taking into thoir fellowship the Lrave OId Catholics of Gormany, without roquiring them to ronounce any part of their croed,is capable of oven grontor things than that, Itsmission is to mako the wholo world Cliristian. How can this bo bot- tor doue than by admitting the wholo world to tho Alllanco? Tho harmony of OChristisng can only be attalned by their booom- ing mombers of ono family, That tliore will bo objectors is truo; but why should the objection of Bishop Tozor to partaking tho communion in a Presbyterisn church wolgh ngainst tho great result of rocognizing all Obristians, of whatovor faith, as membera - of the groat family? Biskop Tozer would in like manner object to tho communion sorvice in. Poro Hyacinthe’s churob, and also in the Mothodiet Ohurch; buf, -novertholess, Bishop Tozer can rotsln his own notions and still bo o faithful membor of tho Christian Al lianco. Tho Alliance has, as wo have esld, done much to break down strifo among Olristion pooplos.

Thoro aro many-sided indications in Now York of a concortod and formidable movoment to ovorthrow tho roform introdnced into politics thoro sgomothing moro than a year sgo, and o8-~ tonslibly reprosented in the poraons of Gov.

Tho ofher charges are, tho omployment of agouts at Albany to keop Alr. Groon in ofiico, and noglect of his dutios ns a momber of tho Board'of Aesossmont. Tho rest of tho indictment consists of an effort to preju- dico the workingmon against the carofal and coneervative polioy which has apparontly oharao- torized Mr. Groon’s ontire adminigtration.

If tho old Tammany clique should mako another raid, the public wonld 8soon take the alarm and defost it. But tho present raid is organized by # g0t of men who have boen, to all appearances, soting with the Roform party, but whoso only interost in overthrowing ono sot of plunder~ org was to mako room for themselvos. Thoy aro tho same men who organized & rald upon the meroantilo classcs of New York through o system of blackmailing. The control of tho Btate and City Government, in sddition to the practical support of tho Fedoral Administration, wonld enable thom to widon their field of oper- ation in both directions, and they would then bo ablo to colipso the old Tammany ring on their own ground. sy THE $44,000,000 ** RESERVE,” As wo statod eomo wooke ago, tho ability of tho Troasury Dopartment to mect its onrrent IHabiiitios Is in question, The Sooretary of tho Troasury has already drawn somo £8,000,000 from a sum of monoey whoso oxistenco st all is an anomaly, and tho logal use of which can hard- 1y bo inslsted on, This fund of 44,000,000 ot groonbacks has boon atyled by the Trensury De- partmont, over sinco part of it was illogally la- sued in 1873, a8 & “resorvo.” Tho law knows 10 such reservo, nor has 1t over authorized one. Tho history of thia transaction I8 & plain one. Tn April, 1806, Congress, by lnw, authorized the Boorotary of tho Treasury to fund tho green- backe thon outstanding, and the notes thus funded ho was to ‘‘rotiro and can- cel,” not to oxcood $4,000,000 o month, Tho original logal limit to tho issne of logal- tondor notes was ©400,000,000; the lnw ox- prosaly stipulated that they woro never to oxcoed. that amount. Tho act of 1806, thoreforo, in authorizivg the retiromont and cancelation of 4,000,000 & month, contomplated and intended to pormanontly reduco tho amount of logal- tonders outstanding, The Beorotary wae ro- quired to * caucel” evory note that Lo retired, just a8 bo would cancoel any bond that ho had peid. In Fobruary, 1808, Congross passed an- other aot, entitled * An act to auspond furthor roduotlon of the ourrency,” That aot suspended tho suthority of tho Boorotary *‘to make any roduction of the ourrency by rotiring aud cancoling United Btatea motes." In tho mosntime, 944,000,000 of groonbacks had boon sodeomed, &ud, according to law, had boon ‘feanceled,"—tlint is, deatroyod. Tha Saoretary of the Troasury is authorized to purohaso, rodeem, and rotiro and cancol ‘any of tho outstanding bonds of the Unitod Btatos bessing 6 por cont futorest. AMr. Boutwell lonsts largoly that Iu bia timo he **rotired and cnncolod * ovor £500,000,000°0f that form of tho public indobtednoss, Can it bo that, atter all tho honor and glory which has boon laimod for that procooding, thoso bonds have not beon retired and csnoolod,” but sro held as a “resorvo among tho assots pt tho Dopartmont, to Lo le- suod from Hmo to time, as tho Becratary mayfool it to bo to tho intoroats’of spoculators to ralso or doproes thomarket? g Tho maximum issuo of groonbacks romained whoro Congross laft it inFebruary, 1808, pro- olsoly at $856,000,000. ‘Having roducod tho vok umo of the curronoy $44,000,000 and canceled tho samo, it susponded tho powor to withdraw any moro, It did not thon, Lowevor, nor at any timo sinco, nuthorizo tho inorenso of thab amount, nor tho isena of othor fiotes in place of thoso rotired and cancolod. It was nmob until 1873 that tho spoculators in Wall stroot, fn tholr nooossitios, found somebody In-tho Trensury Doparimont who was willing to conslder thet tho greombacks ‘‘rotired, and - can- coled” in 1806-7, and for which bonda had been fesuod, were ‘‘a resorve,” upon which tho Bocrotary of tho Trossury at bis dls- orotion might fall back whonover the Govorn- yaent or its frionds wero in o tight placo. Tho Bocrotary of tho Treasury, having s fow wooks ago parted with all of Tis groenbacks to the savings banke in oxchanga for bonds, thereby looklng that much ourvency up for elsty days, it not longer, now finds himeelf unable tomoet the ourrent oxponses of the Govornment, so ho has o uso tho * rosorvo " of groonbacks rotired and cancolod six yoars sgo by Socrotary MoCulloch. In point of fack, hio I8 rolssning & part of tho publio dobt which hos already boen paid, Hav- {ng vonturod in 1872 Lo uso some portion of this monoy, and Congress baving falled to punish tho offenso furthor than by a roport of the Benate Committoo declaring it to have beon illogal, tho Becrotary now takes tho rosponal- bility of using it in such quantities aa ho may think proper. The aot may bo cordonod by pub- lio oplnion, but its illegality cannot be winked out of sight. # r— > The Dircotors of the Gilmeu, Clinton & Bpringficld Railrosd Company, in their anewer to thio complaint of the stockholdor who exposed their proceedings, state that thoy succooded in having tho towns, counties, oto,, slong tho xoad yoto bonds for over ©000,000, but that only 589,000 of theso bonds wore Jssued.
