A variable but rather sluggish market, with ouly spasms of activity, is gen- erally iooked for on the Stock Exchange pending the Presidential election. The meocting of national bank representatives from * various parts of the country, which was held at the Astor House yesterday, closed its proceedings last night after appointing a permanent committee to protect na- (onal bank interests, or, in other words, to do nothing. Daring their conference these ill-used gentiomen stuted their grievances, and thinking the advantages which Vegisiacion has conferred upon them fewer than they de- werve, they, like so many Oliver Twists, ‘‘ask for more.’ They complain of having to pay taxes to the govern- meat, and they not only want to be shielded still more than they are by act of Congress, but they desire all opposing banking interests to be removed. The State Dank system is, in their eyes, an iniquity which ought to be abolished. ‘They regard themselves as the pets of the administration, and, presuming upon past favors, they week to become still more than they alrcady are favorites of the Treasury. Edmund Barke, in the course ef some remedial suggostions to Parliament relating to the wattonal finances of Great Britain in 1780, made are- mark which is mot inappropriate to these deposi- tories of government funds in our own coun- try. He onid ‘‘tbas all subordinate treasuries, es the nureeriee of mismanagement, and as ‘esturally drawing to themselves as much money @s they can, keeping i¢ as long as they can, and account- ing for it as late as they can, ought to be dissolved. ‘They bave a tendency to perplex and distract the public accounts, and to excite a suspicion of government even ‘Beyond the extent of their abuse.”’ Many of the national vanks are virtually sub-treasu- Ties, and as such we can see in them only an element of weakness to the government. Ail the public funds in ‘heir possession isso mueh lost to the Treasury for the Mme being /and, apart fromfother objections te the sys- % gives to the Treasury Department the power ‘@f extending boevefits to one bavk which it can re- fuse 40 another, The door being thus opencd to favoritism, thore is no telling how far undue privileges may be oxtended or bow little security the government may bave for the funds thus deposited. But, without goteg deeper into an examiuation of the Chase bankiug aystom, we think that at the preseat time shis meeting of bank representatives was siugularly uocailed for and in- judicious. If similar action had been adopted in the case of @ private individual under like oire:mstanoes it would have been simple imypertinence. As it was it proved to we little better than a farce, and, endivg in nothing, is apay be accepted as & failure, The demand or loans from the Stock Exchange is light and easily met at seven per cent, The discount line continues inactive and rates are un- obanged, first class signaturez being taken at from nine Wtweive per cent aad ordinary at twelve to Aiteen. ‘There is very !istle commercial paper offering, owing to tee duinesssio trade and (be curtailmentof credits.
