At the timo of writipg this lotter, Mr, WediNl hed not heard of tho defaleation in the City Treasurer’s ofiice.

Ho first nominated a man who was qualified in all respocts excapt in his knowl- edgs of law, Ho next nominated one who was disqulified In all reépects oxcoptin his knowle edgo of lay. . Bis third nomination, i€ he should be required to make a third, con oniy be antiei- poted with a xhuaasr, The objection urged againat Cushing is, that Lie {s not o Ropublican,—sc sll evonts not & good one. Thisis a most strange objoctions Can- 10t the Popo be trusted to select good Catholics for Cordinals? ‘The fact that tho President choso Cushiug for Chiaf-Justica is tho highest form of crodentiala known to party usago and digcipline, Oan a deepor insult bo offered to the Ohief-Magistrate of tho American poople than to say ho don’s know what Lis own party consists of 7 If Cushing, in fact, is not s Re- publican, tho regular and right thing for Joyal Senators to do ia to ewear that hois. They do- cided that Sumner was not s Ropublican when ho was, * What should binder thom from deciding that Cushing is o Republican, whollier o is or not? Itis only a quostion of names after slf, and if anybody is captious Cushing can probably provo that hio voted for Graut, Ho can provo algo that Lo stood shoulder to shoulder with Bon Butlerin the Cuarleston Couveution, and cast a8 many votes for Joff Davis s any Masea- chusotts doughfuco in the lot.

N THE OLD CUSTOM-HOUSE BITE. There bas been another talk among the city and county ofilcials concerning tho building of a Court-House, or providing better quarters for the City and County Goverument, Tho old Post- Oftico and Custom-Iouse building was ngain under dlecussion, and the inevitable Donrd of Education was thero to put in ity inovitable de- maud for rent. Tho eite and the standing walls, worlh togother about $200,000, were obtained from Congress aud the Goneral Government in tho way of trade, on the ploa that they Were wangod for a Publio Library. Tho proporty, in- stead of belng deoded to the City of Chicago for & Publie Library as it ehould have been, wascon- veyed to tho Bosrd of Educstion, aud that Board hus ayor alnge boon prating loudly about thd rent {t abould domand from the Libiary for tho uo of its properly. Tho Public Library will In n fow weoks vaeats tho presont City Hall, and its managors havo sbandoned all thought of so- curing tho old Post-Offico site, a8 tlioy cannot poy the ront domandod. Thero 14 & way, howovor, that this proporty ean bo judiciously used. Wo havo substantinlly six common-law courts, and a County Court in sosslon all tho timo, At prosont they aro hold in closo, Lud-smolling, unsightly dens, Tho to- cordor's offlos is nleo in erampod quarters, and oxposod fo flro. Wo {heroforo suggest that tho city grant the freo uso of tho old Custom-ITouss sito lo tho county (Instond of to tho rats), for tho uso of tho Recordor and tho Courts, upon condition that the county put the building In Labitablo order. As to tho domand of tho Bonrd of Education for rent, that s too Idle for notico, Tho proporty belongs to the city, and for ono of tho fuferior dopartmonts of the City Govorn- ment to bo asling rent for tho public uso of any of the public ‘property, is n rank absurdity, If tho Iaw technically requires that a ront bo paid, lot it bo complied with by voting au annual rent of §1, . Thia property is too valuablo to bo idle any longer. It will bo several years beforo tho now Court-Hougo nnd City Hall will be ready for occupancy. By putting tho buildlng into habit- ablo order, all the raom necersary for the Courta will bo obtainod at o total expondituro of $175,000 to $100,000, and thoir removal ‘from thoir pros- ont quarters would loavo room enough for tho administrative oMces of both city and county, A MODEL BANK PRESIDENT, Tho cxamination of the President of the late Frankiin Dank, Mr. Fornando Joncs, by tho As- sfgueo in Bankruptoy, was not calenlated to ne- sist tho lattor gontleman in Lia senrch for infor- mation, Furthormoro, the examination of the testimony, which wag- printed in Tux Trinuse of Sunday, is not flattering to Mr. Fornando Jones, whon ono calls to mind the philosopher ‘whoto bonign conntunanco hins beamed so bland- 1y above the bank doors upon depositors, and tought silent lessons of prudence nnd thrift upon checks and drafts of the institution of which Poor Richard and Ar, Fernando Jones have boen the dumb figurs-hoads, Whatever olso msy bo charged against thoe philosophical Benjamin, and thero have not been wanting un- charitable people who have raked up all sorts of Ppoceadilfoes in which ho was angaged, ignoranco ou the subject of dollars aud ceuts caunot be laid at his door. Comparigon in this respect shows that botween Mr. Fornsndo. Jones and tho philosopher thore 38 =, wide, im- poseable gulf. The Ansignoe in DBank- ruptcy pumped Mr, Foroando Jones vigorously and assiduously for facts, and tho rosuls wag, nil. The ignorance of Mr. jFornando Jones concorning any matter of fact conmected: with the Franklin Bank was uniquo, complete, gigantio, and touching, and the lopger the Assignce pumped, and the moro the pump whoezed, tho less Alr. Fernando Jones seemed to know. If the As- signeo had pumped a litte longer, and the pump. hiad not broken, wo huve no doubt it would have boen definitely ostablishod that Mr. Fernando Jones didn't know whethor ho was Mr. Fornando Jones, or Bopjamin Franlklin, or o native of the Gold Qonst of Africa, Wo havo no dosire; how- ever, to impugn alr, Fernamio Jones' gencral in~ telligence. Thero may be subjects concerning which ho knows s groat deal, but tho lste Feanklin Bavk is not ouo of fliose subjects, Horenftor, tho procise valuo of a nogative quantity, which hos somewhat distractod matho- maticians, may be easily establishod by rofer- enco to Alr. Fernando Jonos, This eminont fluancier Las completoly upsot ;all tho afilyma- tions of Daboll and sxioms of ‘Euclid, and has shown that nothing may be adled to nothing, subtracted from nothing, multiplied and dvided by Noting, snd that thero amy oven muitiplos aNA fracilons, sysars rouls, aud CODS TOOLS, Liypothenuses, and isoscoles trisngles of nothing. In alluding to what Mr, Fernaudo Jones doca not kuaw about the Frauldin Bauls, thero is an om- barrasament of riches at the vevy outact; but we ahall try aud cull out eome of $he choicor nega- tiva goms, wiuch must bave kopb the prudoent old philosophor 6ver the bank door in & stato of cbronic astonfshmont. 1, Mr, Fornsndo Jonos didu't know ho wag tbe Presidunt of the bank until somo time nfter tho oloction, and then didn't know that tho institution was poiug to close until somo time after it hed taken place. Thot s & good commencement for o Bank President, and between thowe two oxtromes of ignorance it is not purprising that wo find o rich crop of know- nothingism, 2, AMr, Fernando Jones was under tho improssion that thore was o Board of Trus- tees, but o didn't know whethar thoy bad any Dusinoss to trananet, or what that businoss was, 3. As it was very troublosome for the Trustces to meet togethor and kesp a record of* their pro- cecdiugs, Mr, Fernando Jouea didn’t Lnow that it was important, and’ €0 thoy didn’t hold auy. 4. Myr. Fornando Jonosmade desperate and fran- tic offorts to learn how the assets and linbilities stood, but, not halng able to understsnd the boaks, e gave it up, snd, with childlike inno- cance, placed is faith in Brigge. & Mr. For- uando Jones did not knaw whether the Commit- tao called for by tho by-laws of the Cowpany lied vegularly examined tho affairs of the bank, but My Briggs, or Mrs Tillotson, or Qen. Buweet, ar ¢, Childs,—or Tem, Dick, or Harry wight have done it. G, Mr, Fernando Jonos did uat know what tho real availstlo asscts of tho bank wero whon he beoame Prosient of it with- out knowiug it, nor how much canh thore was in thavaults,. He thought he had neen & regulnr balance-sheot of Mr, Lombard's . account in Mr, Briggs' hands, but did not knot by whom It was mado out, nor how full or regular it was, and, in short, know nothing sbout it. He did not know whothor Mr. Briggs bad any papors that would throw any light on the acoounts of tho difforont customors of tho banlk. But we havo not the spaco in & singlo issuo of ‘Tue TRIDONE to foll all that Mr. Feruaudo Jones does not kuow, and therocapitulation would only weary our roaders, 1n looking over the volumli- nous nogative tostimony, thore {a » momentary gloam of sunlight penctrating thnt gloomy buso- ment in which 3r, Fornaudo Jones held tho roing of power watont xnowing it Mr, Fornando Jonew does know that be paid $56,000 for Lis stook with & check on ‘Scnmmnn'n bavk, aod thon took a digcount immediately from the Frankiin Bani for $5,000, dopositing his note, This would bo & refroshing relief it it wore not so short- lived, Immediately tho clouds congrogato more densely than beforo, tho sun ts obscured, and darknoss, gloom, and uncertainty oneo more et tlo down {n tho basoment, and the philosopher over tho door sntles & sickly smile, o doos not know whother Lie pnid for hisstook with this note, aud ko does not know that there are three othior disoounts of 85,000 exoh standing sgainst bim o the books of tho bank, Xt it fn frue that tho doparted splxits van re. turn to thin carth aud take dognizanco of sublu- nary matlers, wo havo no doubt that the old philosopher, whose vonerable head was lopped off tho bank by the Cloaring-Houso, will long haunt tho cormer of Madison and Donrborn streots, and, travorsing tho desorted basemont with soundless troad, will spend tho most of lis timo in trying to comprohond the gigantic nosclonce of hin late nssocinlo in the banklug businoss, Mr. Fernando Jonos, THE MEXIOAN-BORDER OLATMS, Two yonrs ago, Congress approprintod §30,000 to pny the oxponecs of throo Commissionors to visit the Rio Grando and report on the cases of alloged Hopredations by Mexicans upon the property of American sottlors on tho border. Tho Commissioners liad a very géod timo of it. Thelr fame had - procoded thom, and all along the frontier thoro was an unusual demond for Iogal-cap papor, snd for Justicea of the Poace who could adminiator onths and at the samo time writo. ‘fho Oommyssionors, it was understood, wero thoro to adjust any claim which an Amori- can citizon might ‘ostablish of a loss resulting from robbories by the Moxicans on tho other sido of tho river. Old mon snd young men, widows and orphans, greoted tho Commissionors with enthuisigsm. Tho liborality of tho Govorn- mont in sonding threo such ominent citizens down there to make good the losses susteined by the burdy frontioramen was something 8o grand and overpoworing that cach and every inhinb- itant of that port of Toxas exprossod bis or hor eorrow that thore had ever been any uuplonsautness duriug the four yoars of war, Tho claims pourad fu, and though the claimonta wero a little put back whon thoy found that tho Commissionora did not propose to pay tho bills, but intended takingthom to Washington to be paid from thore, thoy Lept up during tho summer snd falln proity vigorous swearing as to losges, The Commissionors, howaver, got tired, and, when they found that thoro was just about enough of tho 30,000 left to tako them Lomo, thay loft the Rio Grando and roturned to Washington, Thoy roported an aggregato of lossss sustained by our follow-citizons amounting, it we remem-~ bor rightly, to between twonty-five and thirty millions of dollara. Thoy roported, however, that thoy hiad not bean sblo, for waut of timo, to collect all tho casos, and thoroforo nsked of 'Qongress anathor appropriation to continua tho Commigsion, 8o Congress mndo tho appropria- tion, aud in duo timo got anothor roport earrging tho claims up. several millions higher. In the monntime, Mexico had heard of tho wondorfai Commigsion on tho American side of the Rio Grando, snd fortbwith that Govornmont ap- pointed a Commission to take evidonco as to depredations on tho property of Moxioana by the wooplo of Toxas, and now wa havo tho firat bul- otin from this Commisgion. Up todate the claims proven by Moxicans excoed $100,000,000! The American Commission is distancod ont of sight. S0°far, tho Moxlcan bill oxceods ours by somothing like $70,000,000, snd if this is to go on we had bottor stop, or the belanco of trado againet us may oxtond far boyond our ability to pay. ‘Wa do not know by what process of caloulation the Mexican Commigaton hns rosched this esti- mote of dimago, but that suggested by the American Commission wss both original and conclusive. 1t was sompthing after.this fashion: Jobn Bmith had 500 hoad of cattle; cattle in hords inorease at the rato of 83 por cont per an- num. In 1859, John Smith could find but 400 of his eattlo, ergo, tbo M‘xinnus hrd stolon 400 of them, Now Johu's bill for indemnity was made out after this fashion : 1850., 100 cattle atolen, ot $10,... 180.. 43 cattlo, ineraueo, at $10.. 43 ig1.. 45 cattle, incronuo, nf 310 Lo 58 cattlo, tucreao, at $10. 50 78 cattlc, {ncrease, at 310 T80 104 cattle, incroaso, at 10! 1,010 148 cattle, increase, at $10 1,880 184 cattle, incroaso, ot $10. 4 2248 cattle, Incroaso, ot $10. 28 coltle, fucresse, at $10., 447 cuttle, increaso, at $10, 583 cattle, {gerense, ot $10. Total2,03¢ cattlo at $10.... 2,340 In some cages, the alloged original loss was 1,000 Liead of cattlo, snd tho increase compound- od at'tho rato of 83 per cont was chargea up agoinst tho Moxicans, By this remnrkablo gys- tom of bookkeoping our Commissioners wero abla to colleet bills amounting only to $80,000,- 000, whito tho Moxican Commissioners in a very briof time havo shown o loss on their sido of $100,000,000, How is this thing to bo settled ? It was originally intended to mustor up a re- apoctably-sized bill against Mexico, snd thont take territory from hor £o pay it; but it scoms 8hio bog o much largor/bill, aud how sre we to pay the differonco? Shall wo code Toxas to Moxico to square the account ? JUDGE D URELL. Notwithetanding tho socrecy with whiol the investigation of Judgo Durell, of Louisiang, has been conducted, the New Orlesns papors have gathered sufficiont of tho ovidonco to show tho very dirty character of the ormine which that fuuctionary ie wearing.

The construction account sbows, for in- stanco, €64,000,000 sot down for capital stock. The Committeo express a doubt whother there was over n dollar of this 264,000,000 paid in.

There is o pretly goneral disturbance in the affairs of all those Illinois railroads in which tho holdors of n portion of the capital stock havo paid for it in full, whilo the remainder of the stock haw beon given away or stolen. The gon- erai condition of all theso rosds may be thus stated: 1, The towns, counties, and cities subseribed and paid their bonds, taking stock thorefor at par,—these subscriptions equaling probably one-third of the nctual cost of construction and equipment. 2. Capital stock has hoen issucd to coustrue- tion companics to an amount equal to tho full cost of tho conatruction and equipment of the road. f 8. Firat and sccond miortgage bands equal to tho wholo amount of the stock hnve beon issued to the construotion company, 4. Tuo monagers for tho time being have, in some cages, leased tho road in porpetuity on condition ihat tho losseo poy tho bonds, thus spouging out the eutira valuo of tho capital stock, Tho sum of this process ia that the construction company received for an expondi- turo.on their part, eny, of $2,000,000— Afuniefpal bonds,, Capital stock, ., First-mortgugo bouds.

Can tho Boarda of Diractors, as trustoes for the bona flde stocklioldoers, give away two- thirda of tho stock without any considoration, to tho projudies of the only roal subsaribers to tho stock?
