' Mmt of our readers hare heard of the famous doolalon of Judge Sharswood on the uubjeot of 1 ti.0 legality of "greenbacks," whioli was de- limed ,b him , in the case oi -, .;' Trott." His riewtf, as expressod on that oooa- . . . . .., xloorW lm1 rlnirn. ThnrA tion, werw iuii j -- WaS no mistaking thorn. The whole argument " Waa published in full, and was commented on n at the time for Its ability. It is evidently the Careful and matured decision of a judioial xofnd. It is the deliberate conviction of a tnan who conscientiously believes himself Tight, and is determined, through all things to adhere to what he believes is his duty. We laiow that Judge Sharswood is too able a man to express a crude opinion on so important a topic. , We know he is too experienced a law yer and too old a man to change his opinion after he has once expressed it. We think we do him no injustice in saying that he holds the same views to-day as he did then, and that, A3 a ponsoientious man, he would do all in his power to make his views the views of the Bench. Now what are the views he has de liberately declared in regard to the finanoes of Our country f A more important topic of judi , clal investigation we cannot imagine. The life of a nation depends on its finances. They are the blood which keep? tip health; they are the streams which supply the waters of life. Impair the national credit, and you Strike a blow not only at the nation, but at every individual composing that nation. The Only way a thoroughly effective blow can be Struck ia through the judiciary. And what does Judge Sharswood say, in his opinion on the legality of the notes of the United States f la one place he states, in the clearest and most CL&equivocal language, his utter and entire op position to the whole system of issuing United States notes. He repeats and reiterates his Opposition in ' a dozen different forms, and leaves himself no loophole to escape through, , even if he so desired. , , And In order that there can remain no doubt as to hia decided sentiments, he impresses them again in his closing sentence: " On the whole, then, I am of opinion thai the provision of tue act of Congress of February 25, 1802, declaring the notes issued In pursuance of thai act to be la wful money and a legal tender, ' la unconstitutional." ' Now, looking at the decision in a common flense point of view, we would ask our business men, and our readers of every class, what does this decision mean ? What would be the prac- ttr.f.1 Aflffllt f ft BllnnAB. nf tllABn ll,iRra nU,.ifnnJ ly Judge Sharswood? What would result if we placed him in a position to give authority ( to his sentiments, and enforce them upon the country f The meaning of the decision does sot admit of a doubt. . In plain words, the . Judge declares that he does not think the Gov ernment or the united btates has any right to issue the notes which have been circulating from hand to hand, and which are known as greenbacks, and it follows that all the national bank notes are likewise issued by a party who lias no right to issue them. What, then, is the consequence f Clearly, all the greenbacks , and national bank notes are worthless. What we have fondly considered as so much money Is really only some pretty colored paper. The holder of a ten-dollar greenback does not pos sess ten dollars, but only a piece of paper. All of the money we have been receiving is no money. It is a base counterfeit of money. It is utterly worthless, and the Confede rate State . bonds are as valuable as our Government notes. From the banker With his thousands to the newsboy with his currency, every citizen of Pennsylvania is a loser of just as much money as he holds of that trash. We are in the same condition as though we had received the notes of a Dela ware bank that has failed. We have no one to hold responsible. A great corporation has v yyjA ami lvtic.d, fbiii& n c liauuui duo nuj individual member. The losses would affect 1 tab all, and by Judge Sharswood's ruling all the people of the land would be just so much i the poorer. We do not say that Judge Shars- wood's election to the post of Supreme Judge , 'would produce so dire a oatastrophe, for he 'Trould not have power to do any such damage; hut we do say that, were his views carried out, and his sentiments made the decision of the judiciary of the United States, such a result . would follow. That it does not ensue is not ' due to Judge Sharswood. To him no thanks that our ourrency is not worthless paper and Our greenbacks colored Bigns. He did all he could to produce such a result, and for that we are asked to elect him to a wider sphere of ; -dangerous power. The effect of the success of what Judge Sharswood desired to see would be ' incalculable. We would be left without any medhim of exchange. All traffio would be : Obliged to cease, and we would be reduced to the condition of the people of Texas, where they sell a calf for a saddle and a bull for a ' penknife. We would be brought back to the days of primal simplicity, and exchange things i olirectly for things, and not for money. We would draw our salary in coffee and beef, for ' cold and silver would be at an unattainable ' uremiam. Cut, seriously, we cannot advise -' the people of Pennsylvania to put a gentleman, ' whatever his ability and honesty, in a position la which he may do great damage, and where Us very ability and honesty may make him the more dangerous. Judge Sharswood, as Pistriet Judge, Las declared that the United TEE- DAILY EVENING ' TELEGRAPH PIIILADELPmA, SATURDAY, 8tatea notes are illegal. Judge Stiarswoad, as Supreme Judge, would have an opportunity to inflict still greater injury, because, of the constitution of that Court and its more ex tended power.' We warn the people against being deceived ;by the specious' plea of ability or Integrity. We find these both In oaf own candidate, but in addition we need tried patri otism, a public spirit in unison with the need' of the nation and that, ; while deficient in Judge Sharswood, is found united with the other qualities in the person of Judge Henry W. Williams, the Republican ca ndidate for the place now vaoant on the Supreme Beach. , ' ' Grant's Position. Thk Mw York World, in a leader this morn ing, states its opinions as to the views of Gene ral Grant: i "Those Republican newspapers, therefore, which, like the 'ltmn, are trying to Identify Ueueral Oram with the Itepublloun party , are opposing a Btrong presumption by the lliinuest and feeblest of slnulowy inference!). General Grant, to be sure, favors the execution of the Reconstruct Ion acts; but so also does President Johnson. As they do not dlirer on this point, they probably diil'er on none whloh 1b pertinent to the present posture of affairs. Tresldeut Johnson would, Indeed, have hai no such laws passed as he feols constrained to exeeute; nor Is there any evidence that General Grant ever favored, or tried to promoto, their passage. President Jolinson concedes that Congress has practical control of reconstruction, by consenting to execute the laws It has passed on that subjeul; and General Grant, finding these laws In force, recognizes I heir authority, without going behind them to Inquire whether they ought to have been enuctud. There la no evidence thai the Presi dent and Acting Secretary of War dufor on auy important practical question." The remarkable silence of General Grant, and his acquiescence in the order of the President, render such a deduction as that made bv the World not unwarranted. It may be true or false, but no one can either verily or deny It, none knowing anything about the sentiments of the Acting Secretary of War. While the Democracy arc declaring, with the World, that "a Washington was elected and re elected on the strength of his character and services, without pledges either asked or given, we trust that General Grant will be elected, it at all, In the same way and with the same gene rous confidence. Having restored the autho rity of the Government, we hope that he may add the highest civic to the highest military fame'by restoring long lost cordiality of feel ing," the Republicans are naturally anxious to see the General declare himself. The New York Tribune says: "Probably General Grant can afford to be a deaf-aud-dumb candidate, but this country cud not afford to elect a deaf-and-dumb Presi dent. If these were oidlnary times of peace, and the Executive otllce meant the appoint ment of tide-waiters, postrmisters, and cousuis, we might be eonteut to see Grant In toe ollloe, even If he never had an opinion. "The Republican party is too great; its mis sion is loo mighty; to speak politically, it Is too strong with three-fuurths of the Electoral College almost, inevitably in its hands to go begging for a candidate, or to intrust its work 10 u mau who does not leei in sympathy with it. If General Grant is the man, we shall he happy. Hut in the face of his recent record, lu the face of his silence, in the face of the appall ing fact that the men who claim to speak lor him are the men who planned the great Copperhead ( onventlnn in Pniladelphla, we are auxlous and douotiug. Great as Grant is. he cannot carry our banner unless he wears our uniform. He cannot lead this party unless we know where he means to go. When he com manded ourarmles, every soldier knew who he meant to tight. ' It is proposed to give him a higher command, and to begin even a greater canvass, is It too much for us to ask, before we fall In line, what colors are we to wear, aud who are our foes f " If Grant by his silence and his actions allows himself to be placed in the position of having the World and its party for a friend, and the Tribune and its party for an enemy, even his splendid reputation will be sullied by such association. The Archangel Gabriel could not remain popular with such a combination. The Delude. We believe Scripture t) lis us that the world will never be destroyed by an other deluge. From that fact, we venture to prophesy the immediate return of fair weather, for a couple of days more would prove the Bible to be untrue. If it took forty days of rain to destroy the earth before, we mus t be pretty near the limit to prevent a recurrence of that unfortunate cleaning out of creation. Accounts from all portions of the country, particularly South, tell the same tales of other cities as was told by The Eveniso Telegraph yeBterday of our own. Railroads washed away, canal embankments overflowed, cul verts broken, and houses flooded, is the univer sal report. It has been many summers since suth an amount of rain has fallen as many, we believe, as thirty-five. However, the end must be near. Wholesale Perjcb?. The case of Conover abounds from beginning to end with such wholesale perjury, that we turn away in dis- guBt from an exhibition of reckless falsehood out of devotion to partisan purposes. W dislike to comment on it, because it appears to us to have no truth in it from the com mencement to the end. We are weary of reading affidavits which entirely contradict each other; of seeing four men swear, in the presence of their Maker, that certain state ments are faots, and have two more, in an equally solemn manner, declare directly the opposite. There is nothing to be made by either party out of an affair so disgraoeful, and, after mature consideration, we cannot avoid judging all concerned, from Conover down, to be perfectly unprincipled and utterly unreliable. Thb New York Wond baa the following bmusiug item on the Colored Convention at Heading, which certainly by Its coursej laid ltelf open to ridicule: "The Colored convention at Reading Is a most bilious body. It puts Trumbull and Fessendon under its black ban. Hut this anathema Is tri vial compared to its treatment of Wendell 1 'Mr"' Foster, of Philadelphia, pronounced General Grant as occupying an equivocal posi tion and Wendell Phillips as liupra.-tlouol' This Is really loo bad. What can poor Phillips have done to merit this dreadful doom of being nrnnounced as Impracticable' by colored Mr. Fosier.ot Philadelphia? 'The Republican parly continues the fervid Foster, 'mlghtas wellnouii ?,a"e a woman to Congress as Wendell Phillips.' Mo doubt, or as any other radical man, but why riot us well nominate Wendell Phillips us nomi nate a woman T Foster deigns not to explain. Time, in the Greek myth, devoured his own children. But tht se black bantlings are com mitting the worse crime of dluing off their own Dolilleal father. Afler this uunatural meal, the natural desBert was the passage of resolutions 'encouraging money remittances for' It doesn't much matter about the ostensible otet, but . .1 .n.T. .. t I ii nf I I A 1 young men for politics and the rostrum.' and theoolored convention put its possible spate fcliirt Into Us carpel-bug, and went home." Bhooakt Ststkm atizrd. In Paris the street muslolans and their fellows have been nisdo the medium of a profitable financial specula tion, by means of an organization known as the "Joint Stock Beggar' Company," which, ac cording to a recent Paris paper, possesses a capital of eighty thousand francs In the French Rentes. "This Company, composed ol specula tors of the lowest grade," "ays the ' French journal, "make use of the children who prac tise In the streets of Farls upon the charity of the passers-by, under pretense of playing the harp, violin, or guitar, by speculating on the pity which infancy in want always inspires. The number of children is continually aug menting; a short time since it seemed to com prixe only a slugle family, now it is that of a tribe." Such an Imposition upon pnblic charity and pood feeling, has lortunatcly, not jet extended to thin country. Ukeb Drinking; in Ecbops. The Ilopfen Zeitung (Hop Gazettel.of Nuremberg, givei some curious i-tatistics repealing the consumption of beer in Europe. The average quantity con sumed by each person in the year I860 wa 27 quarts, but it differs greatly In the various countries.

The Louisville Courier of the lti.h says: "Ud to last night we have received official reports from ninety-eight counties, which show a net gain for Governor Helm of 5611 votes over l)n vall's majority in lHUti. Duvull's majority In t he State was 37,911.

Ii. Q.. C. WI3HART. M. D Dear 81r: In consideration of the great benefit J my child derived from the use of your "Worm (Sugar Drops,".! deem It my duty tonlve you this testimonial, feeling that I will be doing but an act of jUHticcto you as well as to the publlo. For about three months prior to June 9, 1807, ray child, who is la his sixth year, had beeu a great portion of the time quite unwell, aud latterly we could perceive that be was gra dually losing flesh aud wasting away, so that he was but a sketeton of bis former self. Fears were entertained by myself and wife that be would never retrain bis former health. His disposition, which formerly was very good, was now much changed. He was restless, cross, and fretful, and was much given to suddenly starting, crying out, and gnashing bis teeth while asleep. His appetite was very Irregular Indeed; at times he would eat voraciously, which appeared to relieve him for the time being; and then there were times when he wouldn't eat scarcely anything. . He would occasionally be taken very sick at the stomach, which was usually followed by a severe fit of vomitlnn. A greator portion of this time be was under medical treatment, I having em ployed several of the best aud most eminent physicians in this city, whloh availed nothing. I also tried a number of Vermifuges and Worm Confections, thinking that he might possibly beafllicted with worms, all of which did no good. - , , On Sunday morning, June 0, 1867, he was taken violently sick at the stomach, which, as usual, was soon, followed by a severe tit of vomiting and a constant disposition of the bowels to act, but with no success. Beoomlng alarmed, I immediately called upon Dr. G. W. Vaughn (druggist;, corner of Richmond aud Bhackamoxon streets, and, after explaining to him the child's symptoms, he remarked that, is bis opinion, the child had Worms, and ad vised me to purchase a box of Dr. Wishnrt's Worm Sugar Drops, which I accordingly did, and the result that followed after administering them was truly wonderful in the extreme, and will furnish a theme for naturalists and the medical faculty to Investigate and discuss for some time to come. The box contained (2-1) . twenty-four Sugar Drops, and upon examination I ascertained that they were free from the unpleasant taste and smell that almost all of the worm prepara tions now in general use possess. I gave him (4) four of the Sugar Drops about an hour before each meal on Sunday and Monday, June 0 and 10 Inclusive. On Tuesday evening, June 11, the child with much difficulty passed an enormous Worm (li) fourteen inches In length, and about as thick as the first or index finger of a grown person, and still larger In the centre. Upon examining the monster, and holding it up to the gas-light, I noticed that its stomach was covered with a thin and almost transparent skin for the space of (4) four or (5) Ave Inches, exposing to my view a mass of what appeared to be Worms struggling and working among each other I My wire out open the Worm, and, strange and mysterious as it may appear, she took therefrom (H)fourtcen living H'ormi One of the number was a genuine bona fide Tapeworm; and when abstracted from its llvinic tomb was colled up in a singular manner. With much difficulty we succeeded In straightening It out, and found that it was (15) fifteen inches in length, and that It was flat and narrow; and contained a number of Joints. The remaining (13) thirteen were the ordinary Round or Stomach Worms. There is not a shadow of doubt in my mind that if the monster Worm and its contents bad remained in my child's stomach a sufficient length of time to attain a greater degree of perfection, It certainly would have carried him to a premature grave. I bad almost gtven up the last hope when I was providentially di rected to use your great preparation Dr Wlshart's Worm Sugar Drops. My child began to Improve Immediately after get ting rid of the monster that was fast de stroying his life; aud now, thanks to your "WORM SUGAR DROPS," he is in the enjoy ment of perfect health. Not knowing tbe valne of the Worm and its contents to tbe medical faculty, my wife during my absence destroyed IU This unfortunate oc currence I regret very much Indeed, as my In tention was to present the curiosity to you, knowing tbat it would be a valuable acquisi tion to your Rtock of curiosities pertaining to the medical profession. In conclusion, allow me to say that I can, and will In every case, heartily recommend your excellent preparation, Dr, Wlshart's Worm Sugar Drops, as the best, safest, and most relia ble Worm Confection extant.
