Thr l.ury I.nvrs “Ion,” Washington Baltimore Sun,' writes gard to tlie repeal of th anticipated report of tii tee of the House is a good move in the right quarter. Should the recommendation fi.r their repeal go forth, it will have the effect, to fix the attention of the country Upon the greatest social and financial reform of the age, coming, a« it will, from so high a source. The effect cannot he otherwise than •lalutary. The mind of the country has on ly to be fully aroused to the importance «>f the reform to guarantee complete‘success. We sincerely believe that the proposed re form will do more towards destroying un sound Baking institutions than all the tink ering legislation that could be conceived.— It will make of every man, who can control n. surplus monied capital, a banker, to some extent, and will thus force upon the market a supply of the circulating medium c-t.m- mensurate with the interests and demands of trade and business. “Ion” thus writes: I am gratified to know that the enlighten ed and able committee on the judiciary of the House will make a report i:i favor of the abolition or essential modification of the usury laws—laws framed for feudal times, and growing out of relations then ■ : ' ting between the land holders and lender*. The committee will, u fall in with the almost univer- ’ opinion and the geuoral m-. .ement of the country on this subject. 1. a majority of the States the question is now seriously agitated, and all comrade’:,, ccmmuuities unite in de manding from tlifi-- respective lawgivers this salutary change It is proper to say, that in bringing this subject to notice some weeks ag.>, i have no reference to the particular interest - f thi • Distinct, nor do 1 suppose that the pc pie r f this highly commercial community de we any change i»f the existing laws, although every intelligent 1 inker a id bfpker i:i tliis city will admit that such a ciiange would be eminently prejudicial t■< their in terests, and highly beneficial i the commu nity. The action nfC.-ngrca ' on this sub ject is, however, called for, v.-Mi a viaw to public example and oitligb cd legi Cation. (for. Johnson. From an article in the Atlanta. Ext •.ran it i of yesterday, it appear* that Gov. .lonn*r>n “is not particularly desirous of lv-n*.muni tion.’* We are glad to see the confidential organ of the Governor thus early giving in dications tiiar hi- name will, possibly, no* be thrust forward for another trial in the gubernatorial Contest. The interest- of the Democratic party demand that Mr. Join, son’s name should be withdrawn from the field at an early day, as the discussions which would inc itubly follow any serious attempt to bring hirn forward for re-nomi nation wouid be anything but desirable in . their bearing upon the organization and harmony of the party. Our neighbor thinks the “ young democracy ” will eland squat * to Gov. Johnson. V- o suspect that game wouid hardly bear repetition, though it suc ceeded admirably on it- fir it trial. If we are not much mistaken, the “young dem ocracy ” will prove another Banquo to haunt the troubled dreams of his Excellency.
