Sl'EtlC PAYMENTS.
Kvory now and then, sinoc the assembling
of (.'oHrcsf!, .oiiic one member appears to
c, .sriz.'.l with a desire to do ;l littld currency
tinl.erinir. or rather to compel a .step forward
towards specie resumption. It is strange
tliat in llii.-? cata'irv we find so few Demo
cr.ts, and it we di find them at all it is
engaged in the effort to etill further post
pone resumption. A specie, currency the
circulation of Denton Mint drops, as they
wore onoe called is one of the time honored
legends of that party, and it is really surpris
ing that we lind no prominent Democrat will
ing to .step forward, and set that old, solitary
hall in motion once more. There must cer
tainly bo a change somewhere, and a great
one too, to bring about such a state of things.
Democratic principles, which led to the war
against the ';r:ig barrens" in the "good old
times" certainly docs not prove immutable
in this regard, and we are really sorry for it.
Hut no matter what Democrats may in
cline to do, Republicans in Congress dare not
hesitate in the performance of their duty.
The pledges of the government made in it
days of tribulation, stand unredeemed as a
reproach against us for nonfulfillment, and
the more thoroughly they labor to restore the
financial status of the country to what it wat
l-efore the troubles of the war began the more
mi rely aud speedily will they have performed
. i i
their duty. As a war measure, ana as a
necessity, gold was driven out of circulation
into market as a commodity for barter and
sale, under a pledge that on the restoration
of peace, everything would be made to re
turn to the old channel, and the paper dollar
again become in fact the full representative
of the gold dollar. Ten years have elapsed
since the restoration of peace, and still gold
is quoted at a premium, which in plain, un
varnished english means government promi
ses to pay at a discount. This is not only
disgraceful ; it is really dishonest and should
bring shame to our law makers, and deter
luiuatiou speedily to reform the evil. No one
member of the party, either in Congress or
out of it should be content with doing a little
towards the accomplishment of this cud, but
each one should strive with ail his might,
nor rest until the end was attained.
And yet it will not do to build too fond
hopes upon what the resumption of specie
payments will do towards the restoration of
tho.;e good times, the absence of which wo
all mourn so truly. Ueuumption will only
operate as a means through which to accom
plish the end ; each individual must do his
part by ri f ling himself of the extravagant
unions, which plenty ot money, such as it
was, during the last fourteen vcors cngender
ei. Experience docs not show that resump
tion after suspension leads to iu ir'.dsatc
prosperity , yet by educating the public m'ud
to et-oivmiical thoughts and habits it leuds
tb
e way to safe arid legitimate conduct of j
isiness and to good times built on a solid I
business an J to go
ba-is. This we may confidently look for
through resumption, and it will not be. well
to louk for more if we would escape disap
pointment. Iut is it not well to strive even
i or this? And especially so, when by the
striving W2 inaugurate a redemption of the
most-solemn pledges!
Our country s history is marked with three
general suspensions, and three partial ones
by the banks making six altogether. The
jir-r, of these commenced during the war with
Ireat Urittaiti, in 1814, and lasted three
vears, until LSI". The Government itself
could get no coin and was compelled to yield
to the inevitable and to rely on paper in ihc
transaction of its business. Only the New
England banks withstood the pressure. In
the latter year Government resolved that
;ifter February, it would receive and pay out
Sjothing but specie, its own notes and the
jiois of specie paying banks. This spurred
the Baulcs to action, and in the same? year
jvsumpiion became general. Jn this case
.i-.i:)"ss ! fr; i:s o J.;ok up before resumption

why tins baik couM safely resume. Aiiaiu

branches, because of the fitful spells of con
traction and expansion indulged in by them,
were blamed as the cause of the lioaneiii
f roubles of this period. Again in LH.'iT a
financial crisis fell upon the country. This
fuspcusioii, like that oi' J.S14, was for a time
general, and included the government, which,
for a time, was compelled to pay even the
Congressman in irtt ieomable pa per. U:id;r
compulsion ui iaw the banks of s.une of the
States resumed, but the resumption was uut
complete until HH. This was the reign of
panic during which the. United States Bank
of Pennsylvania, commonly known as Nick
Biddie s Bank, went down and carried with
it the fortunes of thousands who had inves
ted in its stoeks, or made it the depository
of their funds. The trouble was generally
believed to grow out of the over reaching
efforts, of Biddle aud hi directors to control
the monetary and business affairs of the
country. A revival of business did not pre
cede resumption in this iustance nor did it
follow it to any great extent. It was this
suspension which le i the government to take
care of its own funds, and to the adoption of
the sub-treasury system. Again in 18o7 a
panic led to a suspension, which in its course
became general among the batiks, I ut was
not followed by the government.. This sus

anse and for many months afterwards, busi
ness generally remained in a depressed condi
tion, Dor did it fully recover until a 3Tear after
resumption. The next and last suspension
was that under which we are now suffering,
and which has already operated to the detri
ment of stable prosperity of the country for
some fourteen years.
We have thus in brief given a history of
suspension in this country. From it we think
it safe to draw the conclusion that though
permanent prosperity may not be the imme
diate result of resumption, the progress from
present depression to future prosperity will
be sure, and, if wo have learned anything
from the past in lessons of practical economy.
lead to permanence. There is certainly noth
ing in the experence of the past to lead us to
eschew our pledges, and longer continue
recreant in the performance of ourimpeutive
duty.
We k"ow the diversity of opinion that
exist: upon this question in both parties, but
we cannot avoid the belief that honesty de
mands a specific redemption of pledgc made
fourtecu years ago, and that the more speedily
congress prepares for resumption in 1879,
the more certainly will the act itself work for
the prosperity of the country.

Daily & Rowland, a couple of Scranton's
enterprising butchers, have been driving a
heavy and profitable business in their line
for some time nast. Their method was to
steal cows, drive them to the suburbs of the
city, slaughter them and dispose of the meat
at a little less thau the market price. It is
said that in this way they have made way
with some fifty cows, nearly all the property
of poor widows. They arc now in the
Luzerne county jail awaiting trial, and it is
thought that the prospect of a sojourn at
Cherry hill is good.
The country all over is glowing with revi
val meetings, and thousands are said to be
tlocking to the mourners bench. In Strouds-
burg we see no evidence of an especial awak-
kening, and mores the pity, for we know of
no town where wicked lives stand more in
need of meuding than here. Scandal and
backbiting really run rampant, and we should
like to witness such a stirring up of the dry
bones, as would leave us unmistakable assur
ance of religion among our people, real,
tangible and plainly apparent in their every
day walk and conversation. The other kind
we have had too much of already. Breth
ren let us pray for ao inflow of the genuine
unadulterated kind or none.

The courses of lectures inaugurated by
the Y. M. C. A., to raise the "spons" is a
good idea, and we hope it may prove a grand
success in every particular. As the raising
of money is an apparent necessity in the
association, we would like to suggest a grand
ball, on temperance and christian principles,
as good a means of replenishing the exche
quer, but so many of the faithful got so miffed
over our suggestion of a dancing school last
winter that we really feel a delicacy at
making this suggestion. The idea is a good
one nevertheless, and would draw beyond a
peradventure.
