I - -
DID the Argus make pretentious to
- silty degree 4 fairness, we should feel
•surpriaed at Ate effort to misrepresent
Col. OveirrA's position on the silver
bill. We puhlished the record at the
time, the vo was tail, and it was .
satinfactoryevery candid honest
money man. The bill, as originally
i::,
presented, roposed to make the
coinage of be silver' dollar free.
That iv, itrmitte,d any individual
p i
to ',take bullion to the mints of the
Unite 'States, and have 4121 grains
coined and stamped one dollar. The
.412.1 gmina of silver was at that time
worth about', 32 cent-, and has since
depreciated -lo about 88 cents. Col.
OVERTON deelared himself as unqual
ifiedly opposed to the iniquitous ,bill,
hut at the time it was up for action
in the House, he was necessarily ab
sent, and YVDO paired
,with a friend of
the bill. The Senate struck the free
coinage clause out of, the bill, and
;when it was returned to the House
for concurrence; Col. OvkaTorr voted,
against postponing action, arguing
Vat if the opponents of the objection
ahle 'features' of the bill:were strong
enough to postpone, d they could just
as well ainend, making it of sufficient
weight to be worth a dollar. Another
good reason for voting against de
laying action was the fact that the
prolonged agitation was proving det
rimental to the business interests of
the country. The hill having passed
the House without t increasing its
weight, the President vetoed it, and
Col. OVERTO;( .voted to sustain the

country has bad witla4he ninety-cents

position, and many who differed with
him at the time, now acknowledge
their error. We have said this much
not by way of apology or explana
tion, but simply to call attention to
the dishonest course of the dryad.
and the desperate' straits of the op
,position- in their :efforts to find fault.
It is, our opiniOn' o that the Argus Will
haVe all it cares to attend to from
this time to the day of election, in its.
endeavors to .convince its readers
that the editor is not "eating crow"
in supporting DIMMICK, whose "rec

AMONG the relics secured by Mr .
Alma; on his late visit to the bat
tlefield of Gettysburg , is an ambro
type, of a group eonaisting doubtless
of a mdther and two little daughters,
one perhaps nine or ten years old;
and the other possibly six. The pic
ture was carried on the person of a
Confederate soldier killed in the bat
tle, and - slightly buried on the field.
Carried probably next his person, it ,
escaped the search of his garments
to which the dead were invariably
subjected. Mr. MINOAY has taken
steps to have the picture reprOduced
in some of the illustrated papers, and
this relic may in that• way become
known to the family of the deceased
soldier and be returned to them. Re
was probably a mar in the prime of
a vigorous life, and - belonged to the
31st Georgia 'Regiment, which form
ed the right of .Gordon's Brigade on
tie morning of the first day of the
Gettysburg battle. •
Wasrf asked a few days since why
he did not put up Dimmtax's name,
the editor of .Lhe Argue replied, "he
don't come down enough." Mr. I).
was in town again last week and now
we believe his name is to appear at
the head of the democratic county
ticket in the .ilrgus this week. Plen
ty of dressing, we presume, can make
"crow" palatable.

ANDRUS, who, "three years ago,
thought it very ungrateful

candidate agiinst him, now contem
plates doing the same thing, hoping
thereby to draw votes enough from
Mr. ‘Faisnuc to - elect , the Demacratic
candidate. We have no fears that
the plot will succeed, and when the
canvass is over Mr. ANDRUS will find
- that he has only burned his own claWs
'in his silly attempt to haul democratic
chestnuts out of the fire.'

These are plain statements of anthers
tic history and we aPpend them• for
- he benefitof our readers:
"The - demand for an exclusive paper
currency without any provision for re
demptioN but simply declared 'to be
money by' government edict, which is the
name of the National party, has naturally
recalled some of the previous efforts to es
tablish this kind of monetary system.
" The most determined attempt in this
direction was made under the Regency :of
the Duke :of Orleans, who usurped the
throne of France upon thedemies of Lou
is XIV., and under the direct ImParelaino
of John Law, the famous Scotch specula.tor, who became the Regent's Finance
Minister. It was Law's notion that, as
the world had advanced from the wind
ily. exchange of merchandise, or barter,
to au exchange by means of a more con
venient and portable kind of merchan
dise, accepted by common consent as an
imilhalent of walues, so it could he in
duced to effect its exchanges by an agreed
medium of no value whatever. Ile taught,
as the Nationals of trolley would have us
believe, that a currency without intrinsic
value could be established as money, and
that, as such a currency would never be
exported, it would be a - permanent source
of wealth and power. He made a deswr7
ate effort to found this system, and had
the approval and support, of the govern.
ment. The result was disaster to the
government, and infamy to Law, who bad
to dee the country to save his life.
" Law first started a private ' bank in
Paris, and, though it was on the insecure
basis, a prosperous business was done lay
adhering to the rules of banking, and re
deeming its paper on demand. This 'bank
afterwards became a royal and- govern
ment institution, and acquired certain val
uable grants and privileges. The finan
ces of France were in a deplorable condi
tion. There bad been partial repudiation
of the debt and debasement of the coinage.
The Government Bank, with Law as (loy
ernor General, took the entire national
debt ; that is to say, the debt was called
in and the holders had the option of tak
ing shares in the India Company or Gov
ernment Bank notes; it was equivalent
to paying the debt in irredeemable paper
currency. Law's bank purchased the
privilege of farming and collecting, the
revenues, the exclusive rights of trading
beyond Cape Good Hope, the regulation
of the coinage, and the general manage
ment of the finances.`•--.The circulating
notes were run up to 2 , 682,000,000 trams
(about $540,000,000), all of which were
irredeemable except the ten-franc notes,
which annruntdi to about $,000,000. At
that time the circulation amounted to
more per capita than was ever reached in
this ry: The currency was in °Very
.1> pert "absolute money." The govern.
relit was at the back of it. Them was
in era of wild speculation, and then a
Minal. As the peopll kat confidence,
. the government made new- efforts to sus
tain its "'absolute money." New fiats
were issued It was decreed, for instance,
that coin sh ould not be used in payment
for more than \lOO francs (.20), and that
the tank notes 'should be worth five per
more than coin. "B ut the decree was in
vain. The transp ortation of coin from
city to city was forbidden by law. Re
coinage was ordered ter the purpose of
further debasement, and all aria not
brought to the mints for this purpose was
to be confiscated. Finally it was made a
misdemeanor for any person to keep more
than $lOO in coin in hisetsion at one
time ;tl o offence was p unishable with a
fine of 10.000 francs, half of whilr went
to the informer, and thus encoura
most infamous system of espionage. An
interconvertible system was • aftenra s
tried under which bank shares and notes
were interchangeable at a fixed rate. But
it was all of no avail. Government fiat ,
was impOtent, no matter what form it
took, to force people to accept as a thing
of value a piece of riper that 'was not
even a premiss to pay. Within twelve
months from the time the system was in
the highest credit the collapse came.
First, there was a government decree re
ducing the value of the notes to fifty per
cent.; later, the Lotes thus repudiated in
part, were made convertible into rentes at
two and one-half per cent. and the dein-
Mon of absolute money was abandoned.
A more recent attempt to establish a I
system:y of fiat money is reported from 1
Uruguay. This has been one of the most
prosperous of the South American corm,
tries, and, in 1878, there was said to be
"more solid money in Uuruguay then in
any country in the world in proportion to
population,"—gold and driver, and paper
convertible into - coin. But a faction was
organized in favor of "more money ; " it
proceeded upon the South American plan,
bought up the geuerals of the army, drove
the conservative President out of the 1
.country, and installed one Pedro Venni&
as President, This was in the summer of
1874. Within ten days after the new
"election" an issue of paper -money
amounting to $10,000,000 was decreed.
This "money" was based upon the "faith
and resources" of the nation, and was a
legal tender for all debts, public and pri
vate. To \make its calling sure, severe
penalties were attached to a refusal to re
ceive it on a par with specie. Men were
dragged before the police courts, fined,
and imprisoned when they declined to
take the scrip for change coming to them
after paying specie, and the Chamber of
Commerce was closed because the mer
chants (largely foreigners) refused to.
'make the "absolute money" the basis of
their trades. The brief career of the fiat
system is told in the following ppaartaaggraph
from a letter written sto thelnc ti
Commercial:
" 'lt first attempts to enforce the pa
peron y law brought 'a 'hornet's neat'
, around the ears of Don Pedro Vanilla
and his friends. They grew less positive,
began to weaken, and were finally com
pelled to admit that their paper was below
par. So long as it was taken for customs
and other public dues, it bad a commer
cial value, and was bought and sold.
When it bad come to be worth only six
teen cents on the dollar, Perin& at Co.
concluded that their legal-tender diet was
too weak for the oelclal stomach, and de
creed that - one.half the customs dues, •
costs in legal cases, tostufilee charges,
etc, should be paid ha gold. The paper
had been.promptly repudiated by the pets
ple, but this war the first step towards re
pudiation by the government that made
it. Public indignation was so strong,
particularly among the pions that Verilla
never appearee upon the The streets
without being surrounded a military
guard. Re was so timid, w eak, and vas
dilating in his character that the army
became disgusted with him, and General
Lattore, chief in Command, took this per
sonal responsibility of inviting hum to va4 -
cate, which be did at - once. The next
morning early, a long procasion of native
citizens of the beat clam qiiietly marched
to the quartets of General- Lettere and
tendered him the Dictatorship of therße
public. Thus ended the rule of Vanilla,
Robinson 4 Co., and theirbrilliant scheme
of irredeemable legal-tenders.Lattore
still held& his position as Dictator—now
over two turs—and givesgeneral satis
faction. The people are allowed to deal
in any kind of money they like, and is a
matter of course always choose the best.
ittore is satisfied in earning ori the
-government with such fends as pus cum
rent 'on 'Change.' "

those who were cunfined.in the pris
on pens of the south during_tlia war.
Among the guests at,the Lochiel for,
the past week has been General Da=
lID Victims, of
_New Jersey, a tall,
fine-looking gentleman, who served
with credit and gallantry in a New
Jersey regiment, as General _ Hors
did in - one from the Keystone State.
Daring the war VICK'S/3 and Horn
were captured by the rebels, and con
fined in one of the southern.prison
pens, Macon, Georgia, for a long
time*. In order to prevent theAhreat
ened bombardment :of Charleston,
South Carolina, -by our troops on
Morris Island, a large body of Pris
oners, about six hundred in number,
inclUding all the. field officersovere
sent on cars to that city. During
the journey Generals Hort' and -VICK'
zits, accompanied by- two or three
others, sprang from the cars in the
darkness, when they were in full mo
tion, and escaped. They wandered
through the swatnps : all nightoind
knowing they =were bunted like wild
beasts, and fearing recapture, waded
into a dense thicket of brush and wa
ter, and remained there all : day, hun
gry unto starvation, and almost lit
erally consumed by , mosquitoes.
When the night came on they got
back into the road, end when within
a few miles of our lines were treed
by bloodhounds, and taken on to
Charleston, where they remained all
through the bombardment. - During
their stay there they ; became 'sepals,
ted, and from that day until yester
clayAhey had never met, and hence it
Was with more than ordinary fervor
that theAwo yeterans, grasped hands
and congratulated each other at the
Lochiel Hotel yesterday. The two
officers sat and related their experi
ence to each other since their separa
tion, and it was \ evident that their
parting for fifteen years • bad not ob
literated that love•for e\
ach other that
is felt in common by all the veterans
of the war."
IT hag been ascertained; that the
Democratic State Committee, headed
by Mr. SPeen, is calling upon its
county organizations -for =the name
and address of every minister in the
counties, together with the name and
address of five active, representative
Christian men in each election dia
-Itrict, With the denomination to which
each belongs. The Democratic. State
Committee are urgent that these lists
should be
-promptly furnished. It is
supposed Chairman =-M - Sivrm. will
at once proceed to collect the names
and address of all ministers—if he
has not already done so—and send
them to Mr. SPEER, the illustrious
salary grubber, whose conduct at- one
time so otlenddd the Democracy that ,
they unceremoniously hooted him out
of their State Convention at Wilkes
barre. Ilf the clergymen of this coun:

and address have been obtained at
Democratic headquarters, in Phila

time to attend to this matter, he can

deal of reverence for ministers of the
Gorpel.
EV.ERY workingman, who knows
anything of the_opemion of Govern
men on labor r is•apprised of the fact
that whenever it deals in bills of
credit the *ages of workingmen nev
er afford them as much profit as when
the Government deals in coin. All
the natural laws of trade demonstrate
this fact. Labor always flourishes
best when its wages are paid in coin.
It is *thus made the equal of capital.
This has always been the doctrine of
the Republican party. - It is the true
and only principle in prospesons
trade and commerce. - No business
van flourish which is conducted on a
System of credits. All paper curren
cy is of the charracter of a debt on
one 'side, and credit on the other,
which alirags exist, until coin is pro
duced in the transaction. To justly;
regulate boneat labor, it must be paid
in honest money. And for these re
sults the laboring man must look to
the Republican party.
Tun Tribune has the following just,
and pertinent. remarks ' " Candi
dates who don't care exactly what
they think, or who don't dare to say
it, can profitably take lessons of Col.
HOYT in his Pennsylvania campaign
speephes. Colonel Hon is making'
a strong bid for Greenback votes,
but he.does it by showing the dis
honor and 'disgrace into Which a tri
umph of Greenback principle. would
plunge the country. Even as a mat
ter of policy a manly and intrepid
course is :larer than paltering or fal;
tering. Insincerity and cowardice
are the poorest kind, of weapons to
make use of in a good cause.'-'
Is 1861 when Mr. DILL'S neighbors
were shouldering their muskets and
marching forward to battle and death
in defense of the old - Union, he met
in mass meeting with other copper
heads and resolved that "This Union
can never be maintained by force• of
arms." While Dux was doing this,
General RENZI' M. Hort was march
ing to the front, at the head of a regi
meat- of patriotic Pennsylvanians.

The Indianapolis Journal says that
this Republican detest in Indiana is
