The Southern pensioners of the
war of 1812 have been restored to
the United States pension rolls, and
why should they not be ? They had
no part or parcel in the late war ; it
was no more their war than it was
the war of Charles, or CromwelL
Representative Garmas is no idle
representative. He is always in Lis
place, and has projected several bills
that, if passed, will prove far-reaching
in their results. One of the bills
proposes to change the three hun
dred dollar exemption clause of the
law, to a higher figure. It provides
that property to the amount of eight
hundred dollars shall be exempt from
levy and sale.
How many Million of greenbacks
were locked up with the expectation
of drawing a premium on them just
as soon as the Government resumes
gold payment, one year hence T Now,
however, by the passage of the silver
bill, payment may be made in silver
or gold, and the hoarding of green
backs is stopped, and they are put
into more general use. Xo one will
keep them for their coin value when
they learn that they can get silver or 1
gold for them any hour. Will some j
smart financier tell where the wrong
lies in that
Optic sharp hare they, we ween.
To sec what's Dot to be seen."
Silver has always been a welcome
circulating medium among the people.
How highly it has been prized, may
le guessed at, by the fact that now,
tbe old pieces that were coined be
fore rebellion drove coin out of cir
culation, are again coming into circu
lation. They had been hung away in
stockings, and hid in cracks, for use
in wore troublous times, if such
times should occur, when all confi
dence in paper would be destroyed ;
but now that silver is becoming cur
rency throughout the country, the
com of that t-taJ that was stowed
away is again brought out. By and
by gold will freely circulate as before
relelhon.
Princeton College has a hazing
case on hand, which resulted in a stu
dent receiving a wound from a pistol
fhot. The demonstration of the stu
dents was disgraceful in tbe extreme.
All that the faculty will do will be
to suspend a number of the boys for a
short period of time. The young man
who engages in hazing expeditions is a
bally, and always makes himself safe
by having plenty of help. Whenever
such a fellow, with a gang cf fellow
roughs, enter a student's room for tbe
purpose of hazing, the object of the
visit should immediately use the bind
geon, and crack a few beads, or, what
would be better, shoot a few. No jury
of civilized men will convict a man
for protecting himself from tbe assaults
of tbe college bully.
The only real solid objection to sil
ver currency is its bulk ; bnt it is like
gold in that it has value among all
civilized or commercial people. Its
standard value, as recognized by tbe
world, by weight is 17! times heavier
tban cold. Tbe 4121 rrain dollar of
this oountry is not quite 'equal to the
world's standard for tbe two metals ; it
is about 1 ! less than the standard ; it
is only 16 times heavier than gold, and
tbe difference between 17 and 16 is
all tbe sbave that will be required on
silver as alloyed in the United States
mints, in any market in tbe civilized
countries of tbe world. You can travel
anyw-cre iu civilized ccuu tries on U.
S. silver, on that discount.
" The Greenback party held a Nat
ional Convention at Toledo, O., on tbe
22nd, Frank Hughes of this Stat was
made permanent President. Their
resolutions contain a number of state
ments and declarations that are not
stiuud. A ludicrous incident of tbe
convention is thus related by a corres
pondent of a city paper A dispatch
was read by Durant from B-:n Butler
denouncing tbe amended silver bill as
a delusion and as a sham, and asking
the convention to condemn it. A res
olution was rushed through to this ef
fect. Afterwards a resolution when
connected with the preceding one soon
became apparent. Tbe convention dis
covered that tt had made a foot of it
self and had to reconsider and table tbe
resolution. Tbe author of it divulged
the curious fact that General Butler
had voted for the sham silver bill him
self. Tbe convention adjourned at a
ate boar, to- nii'bt after a great deal
wf desultory talk."
