gress be a Republican Congress.
The 18th district is one of the twelve
districts that must help maintain the
integrity of all that was won in the
war that the slaveholder made under
the bitter cry of Stale Right, and
that Capilal ihould own it labor. If
you propose to go back of that record,
and help undo what was worked out
through a sacrifice of many precious
lives, and by the creation of a mon
strous debt, which will take years of
patient, honest toil to pay, vote
against Fisher; but if you believe
that what was won through the trib
ulation of the war against Rebellion
it right, vote for Fisher. Which will

rectly, to break down what was gained
t-jT the common rigfds of men by the
war, or become an instrument, indi

was gained for freedom, and the com

UxoB the iiispimtiun cf Uie wood

tor, at Minnequa, CoL A. K. Mc-
Clure gets off a letter on the ques
tion of the hard times, the want of
cheap currency, and the prospects of !
the Greenbackers. It was a pleasant
piece to read, and one who knows no
better would be led to believe that
the country never passed through

just refreshed his mind with the
scraps of history, he could have told
his readers that after the Revolution
ary war of 177C, the currency was
repudiated because it could not be
redeemed in coin, and because the
financial wisdom of that day failed to
fiuid the debt lie might have told
how after repudiation the country
was depressed so far below the pres
ent degree of financial distress that
there can be no comparison made ;
m-twecn luai tune ana tius. lie
might have come this way iu the
progress of events aud informed his
readers of the dreadful financial dis
tress that followed the war of 1812,
and the distress that periodically, at
the intervals of ten and twelve years
from 1812 to 1857, came upon the
country, and not only depreciated
property, but entirely destroyed the
bank currency, such as it was. If the
Colonel's prediction should come
true, as to the intent and purposes of
the people on the financial question,
a financial distress such as followed
the Revolutionary war of 1776 is
about to break over the country;
but fortunately, people do not need
to weaken and grow sick over the
dreadful financial gulf that the Colo
nel predicts, for he is neither a
prophet nor the son of a prophet,
and if his friends claim for him any
such honors, they are reminded of
his brilliant prophecies of the defeat
of Ilartranft, and of the election of
the lamented Horace Greeley. As a
writer the Colonel is a success, but
his prophetic qualities are at a fear
ful discount.
" President White, of Cornell, who
wrote a history of the French As
jrignat, says that the arguments used
f lunj were so much like those of to
day tiiat the French revolutionary
advocates of inflation seem guilty of
the grossest plagiarism from Butler,
Kelley, Eing and the rest " j
A ctxrxm quality of critfeg AfffCon
cfemoing tho government for having
two kinds of tilver dollars hi circula
tion. Tbey say the government
should hare only one kind of silver
dollar, or, if there are two pieces in
circulation, issued by the government
they should be both legalized. The
criticism has arisen from the fact of
the circulation of the trade dollar.
The facta in the case are these t
The trade dollar is not a government
coin ; it was minted in the United
States mints by commercial people of
California, who paid a certain amount
to the government for coining the
tiait dollar, which was to be used in
foreign trade in the East, where the
pRper money of the great Republic
is of no value. The trade dollar has
grains more of silver than the
Bland dollar, the dollar of the dad
dies, which is the government dollar
a leal lender coin. The govern
ment has no two coin silver dollars in
circulation. The trade dollar is not
a government coin, but the intrinsic
value in it keeps it in circulation ; it
circulates everywhere, among civil
ized people at its real value. In Asia,
Africa, England and Europe it will
pass at its intrinsic value without the
endorsement of men or people, or
government. The United States dol
lar, the legal tender, the dollar of the
daddies, has not the words Trade
Dollar on it
The National debt is funded. The
political heresy of the Democracy
and the Greenbackers is in their pro
posal to unfund it If the debt of
the Revolutionary war, Continental
money, had been funded, the country
would have Ix en spared the loss and
blistering disgrace of the repudia
tion of the Continental money. If
the Democracy and Greenbackers
! be the fate that overtook the Conti
nental money. The great mass of
the people who are working in that
direction certainly do not desire to
bring about a state of repudiation.
The cry of tiie Democracy and
Greenbacker is that there has been
too much contraction in the money

proportion now as there was in I860.
Staticians say that in the year men
tioned there was a paper circulation
of 307,000,000. The allegation is
that if that proportion had been kept
up, the panic of 1S73 could not have
taken place ; but the allegation fails
of being correct when the statistics
for the currency of 1S73 are looked at ;
they prove that in the last year men
tioned the paper currency amounted
to 750,000.000.

POLITICAL NOTES.
raoa exchixqes.
The Greenback authorities of Mis
souri are discouraged at discovering
in their State treasury a worthless
bank check for $296,000, which the
treasurer has for years been carrying
forward as cash on hand. Why, isn't
it all right, according to greenback
reasoning . The check is in regular
form throughout, and is irredeema
ble. What more do they ask for T
Lowell Courier.
From a South Carolina Orator.
"Each of you represents $900 ;i

the Democratic ticket, we will make
the Yankees pay for you, and then

There stands old Uncle Jim. lie has

the North will have to pay me $9000,
one-half of which I will give him,
and the balance I will keep. Then

This, my dear colored
friends, is a practical solution of the
'forty acres and a mule' question, and
you will some day be lifted from your
poverty by your old masters. Only

will soon be independent of the con
temptible Yankees."
Kearney got five dollars in his col
lection at St Louis. It looks as
though he would have to discharge
his private secretary.
" Men who are simply demagogues
can never be consistent They are
as fickel as the wind and unstable as
water. The Republican party has
given the country a circulating me
dium unsurpassed for its safety and
accommodation the people's wants.
That party is the author of the green
back circulation. When it proposed
this circulation, which was then an
essential in the national struggle for
existence, many of the men who
would now ride into power on the
greenback hobby, most bitterly an
tagonized it Frank Hughes, the
greenback leader in Pennsylvania,
and who hopes to get into the United
States Senate on the greenback wave,
denounced it as unconstitutional, and
had so poor an opinion of the green
back currency, as to declare that a
bushel of them would not buy a bush
el of potatoes. And so with a good
many other greenback or national
leaders, who are now plavinz the!
demagogue for the sake of an office I
-tb7 were" bitterly tfoatOe to' the
greenbacks when tr great figh took
place for making theitt a part of the
financial circulation. These facts
should be remembered by citizens
who desire to become the tools of
demagogues."
The Boston Herald says : We have
not had an opportunity to sign the
humble petition to General Butler,
asking him to rtm for Governor. If
it will do anything toward inducing
him to run, our signature shall not
be withheld. We want to see him in
the field firse because it will enliven
an otherwise stupid campaign, and,
secondly, because we hope he will
unite all the political monstrosities
into one body and give us a chance
to help "put a head on it" Besides,
Ben has spoken for his epitaph, and
we want him to be enjoying it.
The Republican majority on tbe Con
gressional vote in Colorado was 1336 in
1872 and 993 io 1876. Ia 1874 the
Demoorais seat tbair repiesentstive by
2163 majority, and io 1876 tbe Repub
licans eleoted a Uovernor by 833 ma
jority. The present Legislature has
twenty-seven Republican majority on
joint ballot. At tbe last election
Judge Belford, a native of Lewistown,
Mifflin couDtj, in tbia State, was elect
ed to Congress, bat wai deprived of hit
eat by tbe Democratic- majority io tbe
House, and saw it given to 'T. M. Pat
terson. Tbat act baa been properly
criticised in Colorado, where Judge
Belford haa been renominated by ac
clamation, and a canvass ia proceeding
tbat, auiiiiated by tbe injustice done
tbe State and tbe indignity perpetrated
on tbe Representative and party, prom
ises tbe election of Judge Belford by a
majority tbat tbe House and tbe Dem
ocratic party will be iorced to respect.
Tbe election occurs on tbe fi-st Tues
day in October, and its course ia appar-
! ently indicated in tbe nomination
Tbe New York Herald and other
papers outside this State may profit
ably take a few faets to heart. Tbeae
are: 1, That the Republicans of Penn
sylvania were never more heartily uni
ted and harmonious than tbey are to
day ; 2, Tbat General Henry M. Hoyt
has tbe enthusiastic support of tbe
Pennsylvania Republicans ; 3, Tbat
he was tbe choice not ouly of the lead
ers, but also of tbe masses of bis party
for tbe nomination ; 4, Tbat no move
menta of tbe Opposition, wbetbet tbey
eall themselves Democrats, Indepen
dents r Nationals, can divert the
Pennsylvania Republicans from their
allegiance and devotion to the candi
dates of their party ; 5, That the Re
publicans of Pennsylvania are able to
elect General Henry M. Hoyt Gover
