WASHINGTON, March 3d.—Following is the message of President Hayes vetoing the Funding Bill: To the House of Representatives: Having considered the bill entitled "An Act to facilitate the refunding of the national debt," I am constrained to return it to the House of Representatives, in which it originated, with the following statement of my objections to its passage. The imperative necessity for prompt action and the pressure of public duties in this closing week of my term of office compel me to refrain from any attempt to make a full and satisfactory presentation of the objections to the bill. The importance of the passage at the present session of Congress of a suitable measure for refunding the national debt, which is about to mature, is generally recognized. It has been urged upon the attention of Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury and in my last annual message. If successfully accomplished, it will secure a large decrease in the annual interest payment of the nation, and I earnestly recommend that if the bill before me shall fail, that another measure for this purpose should be adopted before the present Congress adjourns. While in my opinion it would be wise to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, to offer to the public bonds bearing 3½ per cent interest in aid of refunding, I should not deem it my duty to interpose my constitutional objection to the passage of the present bill, if it did not contain in its fifth section provisions National Banks and the enforced winding up of the banks in consequence, would inevitably bring serious embarrassments and disaster to the business of the country. Banks of issue are essential instruments of modern commerce. If the present efficient and admirable system of banking is broken down it will inevitably be followed by a recurrence of other and inferior methods of banking. Any measure looking to such a result will be a disturbing element in our financial system. It will destroy confidence and surely check the growing prosperity of the country. Believing that the measure for refunding the National debt is not necessarily connected with the National Banking Law, and that any refunding act will defeat its own object if it imperiled our National Banking system or seriously impaired its usefulness, and being convinced that section 5 of the bill before me would, if it should become a law, work a great harm, I herewith return the bill to the House of Representatives for that further consideration which is provided for in the Constitution.

If successfully accomplished, it will secure a large decrease in the annual interest payment of the nation, and I earnestly recommend that if the bill before me shall fail, that another measure for this purpose should be adopted before the present Congress adjourns. While in my opinion it would be wise to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, to offer to the public bonds bearing 3½ per cent interest in aid of refunding. I should not deem it my duty to interpose my constitutional objection to the passage of the present bill, if it did not contain in its fifth section provisions which in my judgment impair its value, and tend to the destruction of the present National Banking system of the country. This system has now been in operation almost twenty years. No safer nor more beneficial banking system was ever established. Its advantages as a business are free to all who have the necessary capital. It furnishes currency to the public which for convenience and security of bill holders has probably never been equalled by that of any other banking system. Its notes are secured by deposit with the Government of interest-bearing bonds of the United States. The section of the bill before me which relates to the National Banking system, and to which objection is made, is not an essential part of a refunding measure. It is as follows: "The above authorized 3 per cent bonds, after May 1, 1881, shall be the only bonds receivable as security for National Bank circulation or for public money deposited. When so deposited, if named for purchase or redemption by the Secretary, the bank depositing may substitute other issues of United States bonds in their stead, but no bond on which interest has ceased shall be accepted, or continue on deposit as security; and in case bonds so deposited are not withdrawn in thirty days after interest has ceased, the bank depositing shall be subject to the liabilities of Section 5,234, Revised Statutes of the United States. The fourth section, act of June 20, 1874, 'Providing for redistribution of National Bank currency,' is repealed, and Sections 5,159 and 5,160, Revised Statutes, are re-enacted. And provided further, nothing in this act shall be so construed as to repeal or modify or in any manner affect Sections 5,220, 5,221, 5,222 5,223 and 5,224 of the Revised Statutes of the United States." Under this section it is obvious that no additional banks will hereafter be organized except possibly in the few cities or localities where the prevailing rates of interest in ordinary business are extremely low. No new banks can be organized, and no increase of capital of the existing banks can be obtained, except by a purchase and deposit of 3 per cent bonds. No other bonds of the United States can be used for such purposes. The $1,000,000,000 of other bonds recently issued by the United States, and bearing a higher rate of interest than 3 per cent, and therefore better security for bill holders cannot after the last of July next be received as service for the bank circulation. This is a normal message. If successfully accomplished, it will secure a large decrease in the annual interest payment of the nation, and I earnestly recommend that if the bill before me shall fail, that another measure for this purpose should be adopted before the present Congress adjourns. While in my opinion it would be wise to authorize the Secretary of the Treasury, in his discretion, to offer to the public bonds bearing 3½ per cent interest in aid of refunding.

In short, I cannot but regard this fifth section of the bill as a step in the direction of the destruction of the National Banking system. Our country, after a long period of business depression, has just entered upon a career of unexamined prosperity. The withdrawal of currency from circulation by the additional banks will nevertheless be organized, and no increase of capital of the existing banks can be obtained, except by a purchase and deposit of 3 per cent bonds. No other bonds of the United States can be used for such purposes. The $1,000,000,000 of other bonds recently issued by the United States, and bearing a higher rate of interest than 3 per cent, and therefore better security for bill holders, cannot after the 1st of July next be received as security for the bank circulation. This is a radical change in the Banking Law. It takes from the banks the right they have heretofore had under the law to purchase and deposit as security any of the bonds issued by the United States, and it deprives bill holders of the best security which banks are able to give, by requiring them to deposit bonds having the least value of any bonds issued by the Government. The average rate of taxation of the capital employed in banking is more than double the rate of taxation upon capital employed in other legitimate business. Under these circumstances, to amend the Banking Law so as to deprive the banks of the advantage of securing their notes by the most valuable bonds issued by the Government, will, it is believed in a large part of the country, be a practical prohibition of organizing new banks, and will prevent the existing banks from enlarging their capital. The National Banking system, if continued at all, will be a monopoly in the hands of those already engaged in it, who may purchase Government bonds bearing a more favorable rate of interest than the 3 per cent bonds prior to next July. To prevent the further organization of banks is to put in jeopardy the whole system by taking from it that feature that makes it, as it now in, a banking system free upon the same terms to all who wish to engage in it. Even the existing banks will be in danger, being driven from business by the additional disadvantages to which they will be subjected by this bill.

"You may not believe me," said a man named Spriggina, "but I have had my arm around that lady." "You are a vile slanderer air," exclaiming young Mr. Paperage, and drawing off he struck Mr. Spriggins a heavy blow between the eyes. Both parties were instantly arrested, and when Mr. Spriggins requested that the lady be summoned, a policeman caught up with her, and requested her presence in court, which had just convened in afternoon session. "Judge," said Paperage, "while several acquaintances and myself were standing on the street, talking, this lady passed. Then this man," pointing to Spriggins, "remarked that he had put his arm around her. The lady is nothing to me, judge, but my mother was a lady, and my sisters are ladies, and I have always made it a point to chatline a man when he speaks ill of a lady." "Mr. Spriggins," remarked the judge, "did you say you had put your arm around the lady?" "Yes sir." "Then the gentleman did right in circling you. Ladies are not safe in Little Rock so long as such ruffians are allowed to handle them." "Judge, allow the lady to speak." requested Spriggina. "Certainly. You will please make your statement." "I didn't hear the man when he said that he had put his arm around me, and as I passed on I do not know what occurred." "Excuse me for being hunt but--but-- Do you mean to ask if the man ever put his arm around me?" "Yes." "Then, I must say that he has." For a few moments there was a deep silence, only disturbed by a boy who picked at the plastering with a hammer nail. "What right had he to put his arm around you? shammed the judge." "Because," answered the woman, "be in my husband." When the Court adjourned, the man both beer, and "the Court adjourned."
