Among the numerous topics of financial interest in the Congressional proceedings of the past week there are two or three which stand prominently forward and challenge the public attention. And chief of all in importance is the Loan Bill. This act was passed by the Senate in the form in which it came from the House, and received on Thursday the signature of the President. In two points of view it is the most noteworthy law that has emanated from Congress since the outbreak ot the war. For first it affirms the principle of publicity; and requires that all negotiations made by virtue of the powers entrusted to the Secretary of the Treasury, shall he reported to Congress at the next session : and, sec¬ ondly, it claims for Congress the power which is obviously conferred on it by the Constitution, section 8, paragraph 5, to regulate the value of the circulating moneyof the country. to he entrusted to any ex¬ his ability and integrity may be. Accordingly the new law prescribes certain limits to the exercise of the functions of contracting the currency, and gives specific directions to the Secretary of the Treasury by which he is required to guide his operations. One ©f the objections urged against the hills, for which the measure before us has been substituted, was that they con¬ ferred too much power on the Executive, and detracted from the just prerogatives of the legislative branch of the Govern¬ ment. These objections were urged in many quarters; and, as we have said, the attempt has been made with some sucress to meet and to remove them. That the problem is completely solved of keeping up, in this direction, the equili¬ brium and harmony of our governmental institutions, few persons, we presume, will he hold enough to affirm. But the country will cheerfully accept the present measure as an effort in the right direction, an instalment of what is hereafter to he more completely and maturely realized. And, mean¬ while, we are fortunate in having at the head of the Treasury Department a man in whose capacity, integrity, and ex¬ perience general confidence is expressed. Moreover very little positive use is absolutely necessary to be made of the funding power prior to the next meeting of Congress, as no serious amount of our national obligations falls due for more than year to come. The friends of a sound currency will, however, the chief feature of the bill the implied declaration a the volume of Neat Files for NO. 42. our paper money regard as that while must not be suddenly and mischievously depleted, that volume shall under no circum¬ stances whatever receive any increase. The passage indeed of Mr. Alley’s resolution in the early part of the session principle. Mr. McCulloch’s celebrated Fort Wayne speech had previously enunciated it, and all the pro¬ ceedings of Congress during the present session have been in conformity with it. We are glad, therefore, to notice that in the new loan hill this policy of not increasing the currency has obtained an implicit recognition, and that the advocates of inflation have failed to obtain any practical ad¬ vantage in their efforts to impair the hold which this policy has obtained in Congress and throughout the country. Another illustration of this point is found in the reception by the Senate of Mr. Sherman’s proposition, last Monday, relative3 to the increase of the National Bank Currency. It will he remembered that complaints have been made that many of the Southern States [cannot he supplied with Na¬ tional Banks, inasmuch as the three hundred millions of notes. established this THE [April 14, 1866.

It is obvious, therefore, that by no reasonable con¬ authorized have been all struction of the law can any of the States be deprived of of French equitable share of national banks and bank notes. If any inequitable distribution has been made, it has been done without the authority of the law, and the surplus notes so issued should be withdrawn that they may be distributed where they are wanted. Mr. Sherman’s resolution on this subject will be found elsewhere. It has been referred to the Finance Committee of the Senate and will no doubt elicit considerable discussion and may finally result in the applica¬ tion of the proper remedy. The only remaining Congressional topic which we have space to notice is the question of taxation, which was yester¬ day referred to in the House by Mr. Morrill. It is much to be regretted that questions of such vast moment should have been so long deferred. At a late period of the session, espe¬ cially when cholera is supposed to be approaching, we much fear that, as has happened informer sessions, the tax measures will be pushed through their several stfgps and will become laws, without that thorough preliminary exhaustive examina¬ tion both by individual members and by tne public, which is one of the best safeguards against mischievous tax legis¬ lation. Next week it is supposed the country will know more definitely than at present the precise nature of the chief fiscal changes which are to be proposed by the Committee ly make for the adoption of Congress. their . capital sought investment in the United States than at any other period; and soon after the outbreak of hostilities in the Southern States, large amounts of capi tal were sent to Europe for supposed safer employment, facts showing the tendency of capital to seek foreign investments pending a condition of war. Should the occurring of war between Austria and Prussia call forth this usual tendency, the capitalists of Germany seeking a sound and stable se¬ curity into which they may change their investment have at hand just what they desire, in the Five-twenty bonds. Hith¬ erto, they have shown a remarkable confidence in our se¬ curities. They have taken them in preference to the bonds of their own governments; which, even in times of peace, have been driven to negotiate their loans in London or Paris. It would be difficult to conceive why, in the prospect of a de¬ structive war, they should sell our. securities to invest in those of their own governments. It is true that, in time of war, there is always a el ass whose financial judgment is in¬ fluenced by their political zeal; and it is quite probable that some German capitalists may be induced even to sell out Five twenties and take up national securities; nor is it im¬ possible that some bankers, from motives of loyalty or po¬ litical advantage, may use their influence to induce others to take that course.

Rather than tax her citizens beyond onefourth of one percent, her creditors must go unpaid, and her own financial honor suffer the reproach of bad faith. The practical question for creditors to determine is whether they will accept this scheme of compromise, in lieu of the satisfaction of their claims according to the present contract? The question which naturally arises as preliminary to de¬ ciding this, is—what will the State do if they do not accept it? We certainly cannot lightly come to a conclusion so dishonorable to the State, as to assume that she will do noth¬ ing.

How greater demoralization of a nice sense of honor in the discharge of financial obligations would be required on the part of a party who now thinks it consistent with honor to offer his creditor three per cent.in discharge of his contract much six; to conclude it not inconsistent with honorable obligation bye-and-bye to refuse to respond to a contract to pay eight and nine per cent, if it should happen to pinch ? In short, if the State of Missouri now repudiates her contract with creditors to pay six per cent., what assurance have they that she will bye-and-bye respond to her contract to pay eight or nine per cent? f No, no ; this will not quite do! This is not quite the material of which financial honor is made. It don’t quite come up to the professions of the Governor and General Assembly of their “ fixed and unalterable purpose that the faith of the State shall be preserved with all her creditors to the fullest extent.” If the ability of the State to meet in full its financial ob¬ ligations was at all in doubt, the creditors would doubtless be ready to consider terms of compromise. But the Leg¬ islative Committee from which this scheme so disgraceful to the State originated, dispose of this subject by showing that a tax of one fourth of one per cent only, will discharge the entire debt, principal and interest, during the proposed term of thirty years. In addition to this the Committee expresses its entire confidence that the railroads themselves will ulti¬ mately pay principal and interest of the larger part of the whole debt, and quite possibly the whole of it. The plea that the necessities of her condition make repudiation of the to enjoyed a fairer credit, either at home or abroad, and its bonds greatly esteemed as objects of investment. This high credit was well fouuded—the great wealth and resources of the Commonwealth and the honorable course the State had always presen ed towards its creditors, warranting the esteem in which it was held. The greater portion of its debt, however, has always been owned by the people of the State themselves, and not more than five per cent of the whole by capitalists beyond the limits of the Union. That the State yet enjoys a high credit is equally well ascertained, The quotations at New York are higher than might have been ex¬ pected after a suspension of interest for four or five years. Its coupon bonds now sell for 67@6S in our market, which is a sure criterion that State who violates his or contracted previous to the war a very large debt for improvements and banks, yet, up to the date of secession, no Ibis State bad internal pay were principal and interest, is undoubted. January, 1866, aggre¬ gates more than $42,000,000, and its liabilities on guarantee, beyond the guarantees already become absolute debt, are several millions more. Gov.

It is evident from these premises that the late war has divested the Increase. 413,536 388,079 Passenger train* / ... ... • , ... , State of the most valuable of its accumulated resources. The stocks security for its investments in railroads, banks and other economical institutions have become unproductive and in part worthless; and hence, for the present, the whole burden of the State debt falls upon the people. To pay the iuterest on the debt and con tribution'to the sinking fund will require at least $2,500,000 a year, which, in the present condition of the peop’e of the State, is a large sum to collect from them ; while, at the same time, they must maintain from taxation all the appointments necessary to keep up the State organiza¬ tion. The annual amount of taxes, previous to the war, was about $8,250,000, and the whole expenses of the State a million more. Five mil¬ lions will be required now, without the aid of investments or the tax on negroes. Of the determination of the people to do their best to main, tain the financial honor of the State, however there cau be no question. The debt consists of two portions, the old debt or that which existed, on the 1st January, 1852, and the new debt or that which has been con¬ as tracted since that date. The Constitution of 1851, and the act to create Sinking Fund, provides that an amount equal to seven per cent, shall be annually set apart upon the old debt, which amounted then to $11,971,88S, requiring the sum of $838,028 -68 as the basis. The Constitu¬ tion also provides that whenever after January 1, 1852, a debt shall be contracted by the commonwealth there shall be set apart in like man ner, annually, for thirty four years, a sum exceeding by one per cent, the aggregate amount of the annual interest agreed to be paid thereon at the time of its contraction. The additional one :per cent., by succes¬ sive investment, would retire the debt in the thirty-four years, the time a that all the new debt has to run. On the 1st October, 1860, the old debt had been reduced to The new’ debt outstanding amounted to. Total....

This law provides that the holders of registered bonds of the commonwealth issued before April 17, 1861, may invest the interest due upon said bonds in registered bonds of the State, beering the same rate of interest as the principal, and payable in ten or thirty years as the holder may elect. The holders of the coupon bonds of the State, issued prior to the above date may invest the interest due in either cou¬ pon or registered bonds, to bear interest at the same rate as the princi¬ pal. All fractional sums of interest due on the above bonds which can¬ not be invested as above, are to be provided for in the form of certifi¬ cates payable in two, three, or four years with interest. The interest on the bonds gf the restored government issued since the creation of West Virginia, may be invested up to January, 1867, in State bonds, co pon or registered at option. The Sinking Fund is preserved so that the dates at which the several not altered.

The Northumberland could not get off the ways when an attempt was made to launch her a few days ago. It is said that she is the best of her class, although the English journals write in sharp criticism of the details of the whole. The Times, for instance, says : It is very much to be wished that among the other reforms which these iron¬ clads seem to be introducing, the admiralty would adopt the French system of fastening on the plates with what are termed wood screws instead of through bolts. The latter weaken the plate very considerably and do not hold it on at all, whereas the trials made with the French system of fastening at Shoebury showed it to be so superior to ours as to be literally above any degree of com¬ The “ parison.” plated deck-tower is unusually high in the Northumberland, and is divided into two stories, the lower to be occupied in action by riflemen only, while the upper story is to be used by those in command of the ship, and from which also the vessel can be steered in action. „ The draught of water of the largest iron-clads is as follows ; Achilles 25 feet 11 inches forward and 26f 11 inch aft, speed 14.822 knots.
