But when the act speaks of the laws and regulations which now govern courts of inquiry, it must not be understood as confining such inquiry to the better of the brief and imperfect provisions of the statute for the government of the navy. If it were to be 0 con- Qtrued there would be no guide in matters of grave Mmtercet as to which tbo statutes are silent. The term “Iaws’’ in the act, must, therefore, be constrocd as eomprebending the common law military, as received and practised both in the army and mavy; else it would be hardly possibie to execute the act in the spirit of the Pemedial purposes manifestly contemplated by Congress its enactment. @f this class of questions not determined by statute there ts one which has to be met in liminc, and that is ‘whe'ber the proposed oourt of inquiry is to proceed pub Moly or seoretly, to sit with open or closed doors.

The brokers buy and sell oa thelr own account, just to keep up a show of business. Speculators for a rise do not appear to have any fixed Point to drive at, and are doabtiess satisfied for the time fm preventing a serious decline im price-. This ts all they can expect at the best, but wedo not believe they will .uoceed even in this. The street speculators get no aid from outsiders. The railroad stocks now operated im at the Brokers’ Board ha’ 106 the confidence of the publie, and are not touched by parties seeking invost- ments. On the contrary there is very little doubt that small lots are almost daily finding thelr way into the street from small outside holders. No man outside of the’ area of speculation can fee! casy with his capital placed in such stocks as New York Central, Erie, and ‘Michigan Southern, and as fast as the class of small hold- ers can realize without loss they are glad to dows.
