Hayes havo been published : one bv J. Q. How ard, ono by Russell II. Conwoll, and the last by William D. Ilowella. They are all very interesting, and nil tell the story of a representative Amer ican, nnd one which every American will read with pride and pleasure. Mr. Howell's literary instinct nnd training and his peculiarly delicate touch inaken his work, although less copious than the others, not less a most winning portrait of a fine and uoblo character. Tho life of Gov. IIaye3 ia not that of an ambitious po lilican, but of a quiet, intelligent, hon est, and patriotic citizen, attracting nt once the confidence of his neighbors, and called by them instiuclively to posts of responsibility nnd honor. Thus without being iu the usual seuse a politician, never seeking nor espec ially desiring political distinction, he has been constantly in publio life, and ha3 large administrative experience. Tho paramount impression derived from his biography is that of the qual ity of his manhood a sturdy and simple rectitude of nature, which sym pathizes with the best, and perempto rily rejects whatever is doubtful, empty, or mean. He comes of what is called good 6tock, and was born to that common sense which is thehappi ess of fortunes. Naturally "right," nnd of singular refinement of mind and syrapnthy, in terested in good books and good men, and- hospitable to every generous thought nnd movement, he yet has the solid judgment which considers and weighs and tho tranquil tempera ment which forbids folly in speech or action. It might be supposed that such a man would appear to be a doc trinaire or visionary, and Jliat his opiuion3 would represent wishes rather than conclusions. But it is evident nt every step of his career that when he planted his foot, it took square hold of the earth. He is not mastered by eagerness or enthusiasm, but his per sistence in duty is inflexible because it is the growth of conviction, not the warmth of a whim. His clear senso of duty, indeed, is ono of the finest as pects of the character portrayed in his memoir. The sagacity, tho courage, and the modesty of his views and hi conduct aro equally admirable. In January, 1SG1, when Mr. Seward and Mr. Adams were making speeches which disheartened many Republicans and discouraged, tha cotiDtry, Mr. Hayes said calmly, and with true in sight, "Disunion and civil war are at hand, and yet I fear disuniou and war less than compromise." When Sum ter fell, in April, with tho sublime ex Imitation of Samuel Adams on the morning of Lexington and Concord, Hayes said, "Let what evils may fol low, I shall not case to rejoice over this event." A little later he enlisted for the war, saying, "I would prefer to go into it if I Knew that I was to bo killed in tho course of it, rather than to live through nnd after it without taking any part in it." Tho value of theso words is that they are not phraics mado for public letters and public speeches nnd for public effect, but aro the natural and simple expression of feelings that im mediately took form id deeds. They are in perfect harmony with hii letter to Gen. Garfield last March, on hard money, in which ho says, iu speaking of the Resumption Rill; "I would 'consent' to no backward steps. To yield or compromise is wcaknes, nnd would destroy n- If a better resump tion can be substituted for tho present ono, that may (To. Rut keep cool. We cm better afford to be beaten in Congress tlian to back out." This is the characteristic tono of a man who lias the courage of his convictions "I fctar disuniou and war less thau com-p'-ofuise;" nor that ho did not know when compromiso was wise, but that ho knew also when compromise was hopeless madness. It is impossible to read this Life without feeling that tlio more it is known, tho more closely it will com mend Gov. Hayes, iu the words of Mr. Howells, "to the honor and affec tion of tho people." Mr. Con well says truly, 'Ho is no convert to his party, no meek follower of events; but long before tho struggles ho felt, aud to which he so often refers in his speeches, has become realities, ho foretold their advent, and earnestly warniug his friends, bravely prepared himself to meet them." And Mr. Howard says what every earnest and patriotic Re publican believes, aud those who know him best believe most firmly. "If President, he would do the right thing nt tho rifiht timo in tho right way. His election will givo us not a solid South or a solid North, but a Eolid Union." The contrast in patri otism, political sagacity, courage, and directness of uaturo and conduct be tween Gov. Hayes and his competitor points itself.

Har per's Weekly. Greenbacks net Money. The Hon. Robert G. Ingeraoll evi dently knows tho difrerance between greenbacks nnd money, nnd apprecia tes the relations of the government to the currency. If his speech at In dianapolis be any criterion. His method of "putting the enso" issosini- r ttA f.tnn flint It n 1 . f 1 nun vital iii.ii, il. tan acarcciy jHil tn prove very effective. He gives his idea of finance as follows : In the first place, the government don't support the people ; the people support tho government. The govern ment passes around the hat, the gov ernment passes around tho alms-dish. True enough, it has a musket behind it, but it is a perpetual chronic pau per. It passes, I told you, -the alms dish, and we all throw iu our share, except Tilden. (Great laughter. )This goverument is a perpetual consumer. You understaud me, the government don't plough ground, the government don't raise corn and wheat; the gov ernment is simply a perpetual consum er. We support the government. Now, the idea that the government can make money for you and mo to live on, why, it is the same as though my hired man should issue certificates of my indebtedness to him for me to live on. Some people tell me that the government can impress its sovereign ty on a piece of paper, and that is money. Well, if it is, what's tho use of wasting it in making $1 bills? It takes no more ink and no more paper why not make 81,000 bills? Why not make $1,000,000,000 bills and nil be billionaire ? (Great laughter.) If the government can make money, what on earth does it collect from you and me for? Why don't it make what money it wants, take the taxes out, and give the balance to u?? (Laugh ter.) Mr. Greenbacker suppose the government issued 100,000,000 to morrow, hofv would you get any of it? (A voice, 'Steal i't." I was not speaking to tho Democrats. (Laugh ter.) You would not get it unless you had something to exchange for it. The goverument would not go around and give you your average. You have to have some corn or wheat or pork to give for it. How do you pet money ? Ry work. Where from? You have to dig it out of the ground. That is where it comes from. The idea that you can produce money without labor is just ns foolish ns tho idea of perpet ual motion. They are old follies un der new names. Let me tell you an other thing. The Democrats seem to think II inf. vnti o f.iil a TrPor fi promise eo long that it is ns fiapdV as though you had kept it. They say you can stnmp tho sovereignty of tho gov ernment upon paper. The other day I saw a pieco of silver bearing the sov ereign stamp of Julius Cresar. o 'Joiius Ctcsar has been dust about 2,000 years, but that piece of silver was worth just ns much as though Julius Cresar wnsat tho head of the Roman legions. Was it his sovereignty that made it valua ble? Suppose ho had put it on a pieco of paper. Tt woufd havo been of no more value th;tn a Democratic prom ise. Ingorsoll thus describes TilJen : "Who-is fvnmuo.l J. Tilden? In tho first place, it is generally understood he is the niau who, like Jacob in the Bible, made his money by watering stock. He is an attorney. He never gave birth to an elevated or noble sen timent in his life. Ho is a kind of a legal spider, watching a web oftcchni calities for victims. Ho is a corn-, pond of cunning nnd henrtlesne?s, of beak and claw nnd fang. Ho is one of tho few men who can grab a rail road and hide all the r'eep cuts, tun nels, bridges, and culverts in a single night. He is a corporation wrecker. He is a demurrer filed by the Confed erate Congress. He waits on tho shores of tho sea of bankruptcy to clutch tho drowning by tho throat. He would not save his country if he could. He swore ho paid Lis income tax and he swore to a lie. He knew it. He was never married. Tamma ny was the only maiden he ever clasped to his withered and heartless breast. Ho courted mea because woman cannot vote, and he has adopt ed a Yacr baby that really belongs tn Heudricks. At present his principal business is explaining, or trying to explain, how ho can adopt that child. Twenty nine States will chose their Congressman on tne 7th of November next, tho remainder at variom periods.
