I have read with pleasure the articles referring to the medal proposed to be given Capt. Knode for his humane treatment of mules placed in bis charge. I fully approve of the example being made public, that other captains may do likewise; but I think the selection tor such an example on the Chesapeake and Ohio canal is not a fair one. Knode runs a wheat boat, making on an average iis travelon the canal less than 250 miles per month, When home his mules are in the stable six or more days resting; when they arrive in Georgetown, resting again trom three to five days alter working only three days coming dow: the captains who run coal boats make an ge of 736. miles per month, only allowing two trips perimonth. Now, for the example to be a practi- cal one, and one that the boatmen would be likely to imitate, there should be a sciection from one of the regular coal boat captains—and there are quite a number of them if sought for. ‘The towing of the coal boats ts Where the mules mostly suffer, as tbe poor animals are constantly on the move (or nearly 30); and-as the mules are in many cases hired, the captains are toacareless in their tre: ment of them. Give a medal to the best team on Some prominent coal-carrying boat, and then the Object will be reached as far as the example goes, Farr PLay. Ses Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.

Mr. Hewitt’s Fin: HE EXPLAINS TO A STAR REPORTER WHAT HE PRO- POSES TO ACCOMPLISH BY THE BILL HE INTRO- | ARCHBISHOP CORRIGAN PRESIDES AT A MEETING OF DUCED MONDAY. Mr, Hewitt introduced an ingenious financial Proposition in the House Monday. The Dill pro- Vides a means of reducing the surplus in the Treasury, and gives security for national bank cir- culation, which will prevent the contraction of currency. “The bill fs the result of long and careful study, sald Mr. Hewitt, inexplanation of the measure to aSrar reporter to-day. “It 1s nota hastily con- celved plan. Its purpose 1s, first, to provide an outlet for the aecumulating Surplus in the Treas- ury, if the revenues of the government are not re- duced. It ts the part of statesmen, I think, when there fs, as now, so much division and uncertainty to provide against the contingency of the failure surplus will Continue to pile up in the Treasury. To corfect this the bill authorizes the Secretary to use this surplus to prepay the interest on the gov ernment bonds In excess of three per cent, reduc- Ing the interest of all the bonds to three per cent. Itis amere business proposition. If a business house has out interest-vearing securities, and wants to pay off all the interest at once, they ar- range with their creditors fora discount, Nov ‘want to apply the same business principies to th government. By paving at once the government will make the interest on the interest, computed at three percent. ‘The tax payers will be relieved Just this much, and the interest on the public debt will be reduced to three per cent. ‘The fact that the interest above tiuls amount ‘will be stamped across the face of the bonds, or if they are coupons they shall be cut off and coupons of the lower rate substituted. Now as a second proposition these bonds may be deposited in the treasury to secure national bank cireulation. ‘The banks can buy these bonds tn the market to replace the 3 per cents that have been called, Their interest: beng reduced they Will not command such a premium as they now do. It is probable that 3 per cents having ten Years to run, would command a sinall premtum. ‘To overcome this I propose to allow the national banks to issue to par upon these bonds. This I {think will about anake up the difference of the pre- mum, Now it may only properly be asked, “suppose the bondholders renee te accent the prepayment of the interest.” ‘This 1s provided against in the bill by the provision that the Secretary of the Treas. ury deposit the surplus in banks upon a security of an equalamount of the bonded or other imdebt- ness, I think it will be found that the Dill meets all the requirements of the case, It will prevent the contra®tion of the © \d put the surplus into circulation among the people. ‘The bill 1s In- tended as an expedient If the revenuesor tie 20v- ernment are aot reduced. It would not be of =o much vaiue if the tariif were reduced, but it would even then be serviceable. Mrs, Cleveland and the W. C. T. U.

At the meeting Monday of the New York presby- tery, Prof. A: C.
