We have endeavored to exhibit two of the prominent delecto of tho national hank system. There remains that more radical defect, which in one ot structural imperfection. The basis of the Bvatoin is credit. Tho issues are founded on credit, for they constitute a credit from tho people to t he banks, whilo the issues them? selves aro based on bonds, which constitute a oredit from the bondholders to tho govern? ment. We havo frequently heard it affirmed that tho issue* of the national banks lep?se on tho same basis as the Bank of England, io wit-public securities to the amount of ?14-, OOO OOO. l>i Bide? a sum tn gold averaging ?12 OOO OOO. As some writer has exproased it, ibero is a a pile of gold b..hind their notes, there is int r ue-io value au ono of the principal supports ot British bunk CUM it. The national banka repose on an unsubstantial baeis, which a breath may destroy. Judge Cnaso is thought to havo performed a great financial aohiowinenb when he lound purchasers for .800 OOO OOO bonds, less tcu per cent., by ino rporatiug iu his s?beme of bunk? ing that leatu.o o? the New York banking law by which tho banka in tba- State were compel cd to Rive security in public stocks for their notes, fie created a demand for United States bondi nd waa enabled to soil thom al par, but his admirers forgot or omitted to state t.iat they were sold in a d'jpreoialed cur? rency. There a'o two sources of apprehension with "X^roteoY?fioW?s wu navu nomin? ated in Europe, amounting to $350,000.000. from a severo mouottuy priisauie there. 2. The loo great extension of mercantile credit by tho national banka by means of their deposits. . Th? first of these causes of apprehension may not ba d<?ve!oncd for nomo timo yet. His moat probable to occur on the' failnre of th? British harvest, f 1 ho repeal of tje Corn Laws ia no protection Against tins evil. It has occurred oa two or throe OCCPSIQUB since the repeal of those laws. Is ia a peculiar cause of disturbance. If tim? were allowed tor the ex? port of an equivalent amouot of merchandise there would bo no apprehension of derange? ment; but food mus: be had. and bullion must be exported for immediate payment o? it. All other source* of disturbance mav allow of time to countervail the action oa the foreign ox change. If gold is wanted to pay the expenses pf war, or to rectify ap unfavorable balance of Ojf tiade from overtrading, m?ana might bo found ts> avoid the large efflux of gold. Tho payment in gold for imported corn is what the Bank of England, in com? mon Witb the mercantile oiassea of Great Britain, dread. It ? i watched witb great anxio ty. What t?ikes plaed when it does occur is i?miliar to our readers who are informed on this subjoot. first, alarm takes pintie Among hose to whom it entrusted the administration of the carrenoy. Tne rate of disc mut i? r iie ?Od to arrest tho ddtia. and it may reaoh and baa reached twelve per cent. The bankers and bill-brokers then lend money with extreme oar? AQd caution, and inoressa their reserves. Stringency takes place, and becomes pressure, and pressure often leads to^ panic. Thogd who bold for? eign. Lunas onde ivor, of oouise, to realiza them. It ia 'at auch tiroes we are to apprehend the return of foreign bonds to the Un ted States to be converted at almost any sacrifice into money. Any large number of American bonds placad on om* market, under such oir eumstauoos, is certain to be attended with a great decline in t heir value. We should not be surprised that on the ocourrenoe of such ea emergency, if American bonds did not bring more than Atty cents m the dollar. Ia what position would pur national ba ks be placad if the bonds thoy have deposited with the Secre? tary of the 'Treasury should fall to,ono hali their value? On the second bead, excessive ??g% overtrading, if suob nh event should take Slace simultaneously with the return af our bads from Europe, the pecuniary difficulties and morned emonrrassmeuts would be most aggravated and intensified by the undue ex? tension of credit. The loans of the national banka are said, at present, to exoeed aix hun? dred millions of dollars. The brat of these ?anuos of apprehonsion may not be developed for some time yet. There would bo Uttie alleviation of the pres? sure from those injudicious a iran g o ra an ta which limit the issues of the national banka to throe hundred millions of dollars. Deposits are tbe source of greatest anxiety to banks on suoh occasions. They are lout out and annot be recalled on cal). It is far more usual for these institutions to su .pend pay? ment iront demands of thia oharaeter than from their notes issued in excess. Bosidea the limitation of these lannes, the national banks being required to .toop a reserve amount? ing to twenty-five pr cent, of thei issues looks up their tunda at times when they are most needed. It is well known that there are periods m tho vear when currency ia required m a larger amount than usual, both Nortn and South, to bring the crops to market, and when some degree of expansion ?? neecied. In tbs nature ot these restrictions that valuable pro Krty of bank note*-elasticity-ir not lost, is r a time at least rendered unavailing. Tho conclusions froaithe<ie vu wu are that our national banks should desire the removal of those restrictions hy which they ar? hampered Iv By tbe limitation of their issues to an ar? bitrary amount. 2. By tbat portion Of the banking laws re? quiring them to keep A reserve ot iegal teodor note? iiqu&i -to twenty-five per cent, of their issues. , ' Io these remarks we have freely discussed the fanils of organization. Wp bavo nothing to do vt tth the lautts ot administration, if there Are any snob. J. N. C. -Don Platt writes from Washington to Cincinnati Commercial: 4A good deal amusement is had over ?ho fact that ono the gentlemen who anticipated being called General Grant's Cabinet, anticipated so vi that ho hired his house and engaged A ooo and selected his carriage and engaged A coach man. And then when the Cabinet was an nounced, bis name did not appear, and he forced to give tip ntl bc** e* and ?i?rriise, a servente. Ia a word, he found that 'the cou flagrattou was not herc-H was elsewhere.' ^consider this a downright shame,, and I bt'.l an action could be sustained for damages, we file a bili : C. B.

Edward? Calhoun, a relative of John 0, Cal):?un, writes to th? Boches?sr Dstnoerat : *'I live in a seotion of country similar in all respects to the bost tea region of China, and fer many years tbe tea sorvod at my own table has neon exclusively f om my own plants." . -At the inauguration ball there was a'female in an imitation of masculine oostume. j Sb? wore a green silk coat and pantaloons, and leoked like a pict uro ot Pocahontas, or like a mermaid, grotesque and hybrid. Her basque of flowered green silk fell to her knoes, and her flowered green silk pantaloons were ruffhd around the bottom with black laoe; her hair streamed down her back below her waist. -Tho brido of Oouoral Kilpatrick is the niece ol the Archbishop and of the Secretary of War ot Chili, and was, at the time of her marriage with General Kilpatrick, tho bolle o f ganti*KO- No lady ftttiftjOtfl ?nor? attention for her extreme beau .y. Slie is a brunette, and wore at the inauguration ball a drew* of crim-i son satin, trimmed with lace and crystals, a magnificent necklace, and Uara of diamonds. -The Western proas aro rc publish i ncr Gone ral Grant's application., iu 1859, to the St. Louis County Commissioners, for a position as Cornily Engineer. Tho Application closes as follows : ''Should your hoaorable body see proper to give me tko appointment, I pledge myself to give tho office my entire attention, and shall hope to g-ve general satisfaction." The petition was rejected, aud the ' applicant lost a position worth oue hundred and sixty dollars per month. -It is quite certain that Mr. Stewart expect? ed, and equally evident that he desired, a Cabinet appointment under Grant. Of this matter the Washington correspondent of the Sunday Herald writes that Mr. Stewart evident? ly know, notwithstanding tho talk about the great secrecy with which Cabinet appointments were kepi, ti,at he was among the elect. Three days before the inauguration he carno to Wash? ington. Prior te his arrival most sumptuous apartments were prepared for him at the Eb bitt Honse. Parlors reaching the width of the house was refurnished. Carpets ot a new pat? tern were sen! on from Mr Stewart's store and put down; choice lace curtains depondad from the windows, new furniture adorned the rooms, flowers covered tbe mantels, stood ia magnifi? cent bouquets on the tables and bung in rus? tic baskets from the ceiling; a private entrance to the street ia charge of liveried servants was secured at all times from unwarranted intru? sion; a carriage stood at the door with liveried drivel aud footman ready to convoy the prince? ly ooenpant of these palatial rooms wherever and whenever be desired to go. Streamers and flags were hung from tho balconies, de? noting the pati iol ism nf the occupant. It was in these apartments that Mr. Stewart in ex? pectancy received, accepted and finally declined the office of Secreta; y of the Treasury. It is fair, at least, to boll oro iii at with all this prep? aration of ntjlo and luxury, Mr. S. was aware of what was coining. When he was appoin ted he felt HO oontidont that he would be sworn in that he indicated in general datait oertain re? forms which he would ins ituto. (liiiRhitrrrtal. Imports.
