OKXTRK HALL, FA., Feb. 7,1*75.
Wallace and Marker have our
thanks for documents front W aahinglon,
and Mr. Teale for faeors from Hams
bnrg.
Our congressman. Mr. Marker voted
for the Matthew's silver resolution and
for the anti-subsidy resolution. Right
in both. Senator Wallace last week m ule
a telling apeech in the .enate in favor ot
silver, which received men' than usual
attention,
"\o truce between F.earts and t onk
ling" is the word from Washington.
Oonkling would have to come down a
peg if there is to be a truce, and the big
sighting cock.from New York has not
that breed of chhkaaa for ht# ances
tors.
Reallv the way of the transgressor
hard. Senator Patterson of South
Carolina, who is desirous of visiting Si
mon Cameron at hi. Pennsylvania home
pretends to have information that ade
Hampton has furnished the Governors
of Maryland, Pals**™ * n ' l
through which States it is contemplated
he will pass, requisitions for his arrest.
Patterson's friends esy that he has been
under tha-survsillance of Sooth Laro. ins
detectives for some time, and that as
soon as he passes beyond the District o
Columbia he it to be apprehended and
sent under arrest to Charleston.
Grunt has written a letter endorsing
the President's southern policy. And it
was Grant who carried out the oppose
of that police when he was President,
and ind lied the meanest government
and most worhiew set of carpet baggers
upon the South that could be found in
the country, and which will always be a
black spot on hisadmtnisiration. It is a
little late now for Grant to say he en
dorses Hayes' eoulhern policy. When
be was yet President such an endorse
ment would have been of some good.
We can't for the life of us see why the |
Watchman and the Journal oppose the
Branch road from Coburn to Millheim,
which tbe Ksporter has suggested to the
peopleof Millheim. Don't throw cold j
water on it—don't. The 11 atchnian
coming from Bellefonte, which trie*!
to kill the Pennsvalley road and will
not even bmld the Branch to Lemont,
don't surprise us so much, but why the
Journal won't aay something in favor of
a road from Coburn to Millheim, looks
bad, truly bad. Well, if these papers
do Stand back, the march of improve
ment will still go on, and the Reporter
must keep up the agitation. Some of
our Millheim correspondents make sug
gestions on the matter in this issue.
Bullard is the name of one of the
member* of the House from Chester He
is a republican. When he took his seat
he was charged with and placed under
arrest for embetiling tbe funds of a sav
ings bank. He fell back upon the privi
leges of a member to save himself from
arrest. The case was decided against
him, and the officer was charged to take
him to the Media jail. While spending
his last night at Harrisburg. in charge
of an officer, he managed to escape and
now he has gone to parts unknown.
Bullard was a lawyer of prominence at
Media. After the report against him,
made by the Committee of tbe Judicia
ry General, the Sergeant-at Arms, Mr.
Gaines, wished to lodge BulUrd in jail
till morning, but the latter demurred so
earnestly, and plead so hard to be per
mitted merely to remain in custody with
out incarceration, that the
Arms, by advice of others, concluded to
permit him to sleep in his boarding
bouse. In the morning between the
hours of three and four o'clock, some of
the inmates of tbe house were aroused
by unusual noises, and it was soon dis
covered that Ballard's room was vacant,
and that the bird bad succeeded in break
ing from bis cage. Of course there are
whispers of plans and collusions, and all
that sort of thing, bat none who know
Sergeant Gaines will believe that he is
culpable. As it was expected that Bul
lard woald have been lodged in Media
jail tbe affsir has created intense excite
ment.
A bill has been favorably reported in
the house providing for the location of
the middle district penitentiary at Inn
caster. The Commissioners of I.ancaa
ter have offered a site free.
The free pipe bill was defeated in the
senate on 30 ult
A bill has been favorably reported in
the legislature for the adjustment of the
salaries of county superintendents of
common schools. It provides thst after
the present term of those officers in May
next, tbe compensation paid shall be at
the rate of two dollars for each public
school in thecounty, and one dollars for
each square mile of territory within the
county limits. It iaprovided thst coun
ties can pay more man this if they see
• proper, but the excess must come out of
their respective school appropriations.
Centre county has 211 schools, and
1370 square miles, according to this bill
our Co. Superintendent would receive
$l5B0 —his salary now is SIOOO.
The imprisoned Louisiana returning
board baa petitioned Judge Bradley—
aliunde Joa, Bto 7—to take their case
out of the state courts and put it into
bis court. There is not much hope of
success in that.
Judge Bradley has declined to inter
fere in the Returning board case. The
trial ia now going on at New Orleansand
the frauds by which Hayes was counted
in are being proved. The board will no
doubt get a long lease in States prison.
Wells is supposed to be hid in Washing
ton.
One ticket in 1880 may likely be aa
follows:
For President: Henry Ward Beecher.
For Vice President: Bob Ingersoll.
The issue—Hell or no Hell.
The boy sent to Baltimore from Pem
erara, South America, undoubtedly is
Charly Ross. The boy vat brought to
Demerara by a woman who aaid he was
hereon. After having him over three
years she abandoned him and he became
a street gamin and waa picked up by a
wealthy merchant who thought he re
sem bled a picture he had seen of Charly
and sent him to Baltimore to a brother.
The boy is very dark from exposure and
climate, and has all the marks of Char
ly and he aays they once called him
Charly Ron and a man took him away
in a wagon. He is now three weeks in
Baltimore and his complexion is turn
ing fair. Next week Mr. Roes will go to
Baltimore.
It is reported Peter Herdic has failed

THE SILVER QVI'sVIOS IS COS•
GUESS.
We have stated in there articles, that
the act of the 28 unc l<ol was the first
act as far as wc could ascertain, that
overvalued gold and undervalued silver
- the gold coin scheme at that time be
came a party question, sprung upon the
people by the machiuationt of the V. S.
Bank, which, finding South Carolina
and other gold producing states, held
out to thcui the golden pill, they took
the bait, which shows the power of gold
at this very time, the south, on iron and
lead were united in their opposition to a
protective tariff, yet we find them cry
ing out to congress to protect them in
their gold money anil succeeded in it
But since the panic and the passage of
the Resumption act. the currency ques
tion which is now agitating the country
and the discussiou and enui tuicut result
iug therefrom, ate occupying the minds
of the people, and they find "money is
that which the laws of the country
makes in pay ment of debts, and what
ever is used as a medium of exchange,
is simply currency." and they also find
that by the act of congress demonetising
silver, declaring that silver coin, which
has hitherto been receivable as tnonri.
should no longer hold its constitutional
position, but should be debased and Us
power as a legal tender and medium ot
exchange destroyed. In January I s . 4
the Resumption act was passed, and by
this means secured the deeisaion that
on a certain day, near at hatul, the legal
tender notes, greenbacks. Ac., should be
removed from cir nlatiou and destroy
ed, and debts and dues should be liva
ble in gold. At this time, what was the
amount of inonev in circulation .'we can
not at present state the amount of gold
and silver in circulation, but we refer to
the financial report of congress for the
year 1876, page 160, where it is stated
that on the SI of Get. 1885 there were
S<>S4,ISB,9A9 in legal tender notes in cir
culation; then look at Secretary Sher-
man's report recently given to congress
and we find there w ere but $3) l ,340,258
of these notes then in circulation. This
shows an absolute reduction of lawful
money of the country amounting to
735,000, ana that overs milliou and
a half has been destroyed since Dec. Ist
1377, and that the destruction is still go
ing on. Now what have the people re
ceived in the place of this money 7 e
assert that there has not been a dollar ot
coin or other lawful money put in circu
lation in place of it. Thus it will be seen
that nearly one halfof the actual money
of the country has been taken ftvni cir
culation, and the people who purchased
property and sssutued debts when there
were G54 millions of money in circula
tion, are being forced to p• their debts
when there is but 331 millions in u.-c.
What could be more injurious to busi
ness? I.et it be remembered that for
greeulack currency of the government,
no interest is paid on it; while we have
pitd out in interest on the bonds issued,
to redeem the greenbacks already des
troyed, millions in gold, which interest
might have had the green
backs been kept in circulation ; and, we
find a new issue of $351,(00J)U) gold
bonds bearing an interest of 4 per ct. in
gold, is out fur sale, thus adding further
burdens to the interest indebtedness of
at least $15,000.000; and now we find the
money speculators, bondholders, gold
gamblers, money tending corporations,
banks, Ac., residing in our commercial
cities, united in degrading aiul under
valuing silver coin—a constitutional le
gal tender—and discarding it and driv
ing it oat of the country, and restricting it
as a legal standard to the amount of five
dollars—how long will it be before gold
coin would be 250 per ct. above par as
respects silver coin, as iu 18*2? But the
present question before congress Is the
restoration of the silver coin to w here
the constitution placed it—a legal ten
der with gold in the payment of all debts
without limitation or restriction, accord
ing to tbe relative standard fixed and
established by the art of congress of
1792, when ten silver dollars were equiv
alent with the gold esgle according to
the mintage value established as the
American standard in the payment of
debts; cramping the business enterprise
of the country iuto a .less quantity of
real money than used by other countries,
is very injurious to tbe people. We re-
quire tnorejmoney instead of less. If
.France requires |43per capita, we need
150. If England needas24.so per capita,
we require 134,50 —now we have but 120.
One of the strongest proofs is found in
the fact, that at the time we had tbe
largest volume of specie and legal tender
notes in circulation, the industries of the
country were the most flourishing and
prosperous. The public debt was being
cancelled at the rate of 100 millions an
nually, and this occurred from 1801 to
1860.
Mr. Hewitt, of New York, the leader
' of the gold gamblers Jurid considered one
of the ablest and most influential mem
bers of the present congress, has return
ed from a visit to Euroj>e, after investi
' gating the finances of England and
France, since his return has delivered a
speech in congress in opposition to the
repeal of the Resumption act. lie says,
"while in Europe he ascertained that in
France they have 1200 millions of mon
ey—l7oo,ooo,ooo of which is coin, and
1500,000,000 of paper, which is about sls
per capita ; be learned thai in England
they have $640, 000,000 in money— ssoo,-
000,000 of which ia coin, and $140,000/* JO
of paper, which gives $24.50 per capita;
from this investigation made be is con
vinced that the proportion of coin to pa
per in European specie paying countries,
is not less than 7of coin to -5 of paper,
and that specie payments could not be
safely maintained in this country with a
rate less than that." Yet Mr. Hewitt js
for discarding our silver coin driving it
from circulation at its legal value. He
admits that to procure this amount of
coin it could not be obtained without
"upsetting the money market of the
world." Again, he says, "at tne present
time all kinds of values are as much dis
; tressed as they can be and are reduced
; to a gold basis and therefore can not go
any lower." i.et us goon with his con
traction scheme and be will find out that
his policy would not only reduce the
volume of currency one half, but would
diminish the value of all kinds of pro
perty. But the days of financial gloom
appear to be passing away, and wc re
joice at the passage of Mr. Matthew's
resolution in the senate of the U. 8., by
a vote of 43 to 22, declaring, "That all
bonds of the United States issued or
authorized to be issued under the mi* of
congress, Ac., are payable principal suud
interest Ac., in silver dollars of the coin
age of the U. S., and to restore to its
coinage such silver coin as a legal ten
der in the payment of said bonds, prin
cipal and interest." Ho far, so good.
MORE OF TllZ FRAUD.
Major Burke of New Orleans, whe
knows something of the presidential
steal says:
I know positively that Senator Conk
ling had a speech all prepared in favor
of throwing out the vote of Louisiana,
in which event he was to have been Heel
ed President of the Senate, and would
have become President of the United
Stales, pending the new election, which
woulil have taken nlacea year afterward.
Mr. Tilden's friends wore satisfli d wit"
this arrangement, hccauM thcv thought
that with his wounds fresh bleeding he
would have no trouble in securing the
Democratic nomination, and Senator
Conk ling doubtless thought that, with
the control of the patronage, he would
easily shelve Mr. Hayes and become the
UopttbiicaiT candidate.
The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Son, who Is one of the I oat
posted specials at the Capital in regard
to the electoral intrigue, writes as fol
lows in review of the above statement of
Major Durke
It is undoubtedly true, its reported
from New Orleans, that Mr. I onkling
nnd others were indisposed to consum
mate the iniquity of counting vote- tor
Mr Hayes which had been east lor Mr.
Tihlen. There is good reason to believe
that Mr. t'onklitig had prepared him
self to speak against accepting the Ke
turning Bo* id vole of I misiana, and
that this purpose was known to a limit
ed ciiyle of Iriends, who were willing to
tollow Ids lead. Mx Senators were -aid
to he enrolled under Ins banner, w hose
names are well known. The plan was
to throw out 1 otnsiuna, and to order a
new election. In the meantime it was
proposed to elect Mr. t"onkling Presi
iletit of the Senate, us a stepping stone
to the Presidency of the I'niud States
ad interim, l'his latter part of the pro
gramme had not been confided to tbe
mrpet-lxiggrra, who formed the largest
section of the proposed movement.
M lien they came to understand that
success meant the elevation of Mr. Conk*
ling, thev becamealartncd, and demand
ed Mr. Morton a their choice and the
condition of their support. l'his ouddvn
diversion was only disclosed onSunday,
and the next day the vote of Ixuiisiana
was to he decided. It lead to u grave
conference at the Arlington Hotel,
where Mr. Coukling then lodged, which
ran into the smainiours of the morning.
Monday came, and there was intense
anxiety at the Capitol, for these rumors
had spread through the air. Mr. Conk
ling did not appear in the Senate Cham
ber at all, bat was known to be for a
time in his committe room, to which on-
Iv a favored few were admitted.
Before the Senate was called to order,
Mr. Conk ling was on his way to Balti
more, where he passed the day, and re
turned in the afternoon train. Conse
quently he made no speech. The Ke-
I turning Board vote of Louisiana was
counted without any record of his name
and Mr. Hayes was thus virtually made
President.

An Kinpliatic Response to an Itnpu
lieut Note.
W. E. Chandler is a prominent radi
cal leader of New Hampshire, tie was
one of the statesmen who went to Loui
siana and Florida to help count in
Hayes. He afterwards failed to get an
appointment, which haa disgusted him
o much that lie is telling all he knows
about the fraud,. A few days ago he
te)cgra[>hed some questions to Muj.
Burke about the things that were done
in the dark, upon which Maj. Burke
telegraphed back as follows :
New Orleans, January 29, 1 -75.---To
W. E. Chandier, Washington City : Pie
fore considering the subiuct matter of a
telegram received this day, signed "W.
E. Chandler," 1 desire to ask if the
author is the Chandler, who, as Assis
tant Secretary of the Treasury, traveling
through the" South in IStiS, corruptly
parti* ipa ted in the apod gathered by
Supervising Treasury agents engaged in
robbing their Government, and in de
frauding the depressed people of this
and adjacent States?
Is it the Chandler w ho, 35 Secretary
of the Republican National Committee,
with certain Republicans from Louisia
na. at a conference or conferences at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. New York, con
cerning Louisiana affairs, about October,
1572, secretly and corruptly conspired to
take advantage of tbe absence from lahi
lstatiw of the Governor thereof, to as
semble secreiiy the Legislature, impeach
the Governor, scuethe government and
! use its machinery to carry the /.'lection
I of 1872?
Is it the Chandler who earned and re
ceived a fee from Kellogg of thrcethous*
and dollars in 1873, and tbe encomium
"you had done more for him than any
one. except Attorney General Williams,'
in oiajutaimug as foul and infamous the
usurpation of Iha offiep of Governor of
this State?
Ia it the Chan.ller who eaiou/agwd,
abetted and conspired with infamous
allies in this city to rob 12.000 citizens
of New Orleans ofthe franchise, and drag
them bafure the Federal Courts, on or
about the day of lUe l*le election; who
in November. lfijb. by UiUpraph jjoaran
teed Kellogg that the whoJe powei of
the Government would sustain the lie
turning Board in counting the vote of
Louisiana for the Republican.candidates
and then hastened to Florida to manip
ulate the frauds of that State count ?
Is it the Chandler who has of late been
