The Administration continues the consideration Of
the currency question as connected with Government
operations 1t is ascertained, from altogether re
able source that there is no disposition to suspend the
public works in process Of construction to in
terfere with the contractors but there is disposition
not to commence new works, unless Of such charsc-
ter as to render them absolutely necessary. The
Administrations course on these and other mat
tiers will depend more or less on the developments
Of the next four or five months indicated by the re-
cepts Of customs. Meantime, information will con-
tinue to be sought with view to correct estimates
ard Until this is obtained there can be no definite
policy.
The new model riAe-muskets are at once to be dis

BosroS, Tuesday Oct. y, 1897.
BY invitation of the Young Mems Democratic Club,
The HoR. Caleb Cushing addressed the citizens Of
Boston in FaIeuil Hall to dsy. The hall w~ crowded,
and his remarks occupied two hours. He defended
the Administration Of President Pierce, and assumed
that the opposition in Ms.achusett, was simply per
sora being known as the Banks party, etc, ard
devoted three.fourths of an hour to reviewing Mr..
BaIkss speech on the financial question The merits
of the Kansas question explained by Mr.. Cush'
Ing az be understood them, ard it was argued that
speculation 10 the public lands was the one leading
object of keeping up the excitement both North and
South, ard that il acted as sort of advertisement,
after the manner OF Barnum.
1t was then argued that the Bleeding Kansas
idea had exploded that the "Dred Scott case had
oied out, and that the deliberately constructed plat
foins Of disooId on which the Republican party had
stood for three years were completely broken down
Therefore Mr. Banks had taken new ground and en-
cesycssd 10 perveit financial questions 10 the service

The Honorable Caleb Gushing has addressed 8
letter to The Boston Daily Advertiser, announcing
himself rs desperate ard confirmed skeptic 80 far
as relates to the truth Of history. Being more dis
tiDsuished for his learning thao his originality, Mr.
Cushing borroxs for the occasion the observation
Of "a keen but somewhat scornfu observer of
human life, according to whom everything in
romance is true except the names, and every thing
except the names false 10 history" Mr.. Cushing
is inclined to believe that such men ss Alexander
julius CRsar Charlemsgne, Cromwell, Washington
sLd Napoleon did really exist, and did perform a
certain part in the affairs Of their times but q. to
what that part WAS, as "tO all matters Of dstai, &"
Re finds himself compelled " obstinstsly to doubt"
We are little inclined to question whether, a, to
tki, matter, Mr.. Gushing occupies the position Of
perfectly disinterssted judge. There is-aud per-
laps Mr.. Gushing may BE- ore of the number-a
lmse body Of men who lcOk forward-t least, who

may say of them with no great satisfaction, and

We do not indulge in indscriminate and whole
.ale praise Of candidates presented by our friends,
any more than in dispsrsgement Of those nom-
mated by our opponents; yet there are some names
preiented by the Republicans of our State that we
cannot allow to pass without special mention.
ABDAH MANN, candidate for Senator 10 East
Brooklyn, is one Of these. Mr. Mann has been some
years oui of public lfe but has had large political
experience, while bis ability and fidelity to his
yctons Of duty were never disputed. In the
present financial condition Of our State his counsel
ard courage will prove invaluable ia the Legs
laiure
JOsEPH B. VARNUM Of this City has been re.
peatedly chosen to the Assembly, where he has
steadily enjoyed aud deserved the confidence of his
political associates and the esteem Of all. Above
the influence of Iced bis consent to serve in the
rext Senate lie sacrifice personal convenience to
public duty which ought to be warmly appreciated
Our City tas few men better qualified for legisla.
tors
JOHN STANTON GOULD is the Republican can.
di6ste in the XIth District, comprising the Coua-
ties of Duchess AID Columbia. Our State has few
citizen. who so admirably combine signal ability
with ripe study large experience and high moral
purpose. Mr.. Gould has served with honor in the
Assembly, and wiI increase it by his worth in the
Senate.
ALRICK HUBBELL, Republican candidate fox
Senator in the XlXth ONEIDA, has been eminently
useful as Mayor Of Utica, and is esteemed by those
who krow bin as faithful and frugai administrator
of public trusts. He is at once cspabe and
popular.
JAMES NOXON has eelved the KILL (Onon.
dsea) so acceptaby to create strong desire for
his return to the scene Of his usefulness. A large
majority will give effect to that de'ire.
ALEX. OWEN of Chemupg is the Republican
candidate for Senator in the XXVIIth District
He has long been prominent in promoting every
enterprise calculated to benefit "the Southern
tier" but has not till now been candidate within
our remembrance. He was urged to accept the
Republican nomination for Controller Of the FL
nanoes-tbe most important and desirable office in
the State-but declined. If We are not sreVously
mistaken bis majority will be large one.
Others are doubtless in nomination for the Senate
who equally with these deserve the need of popu-
lar regard which is about to be accorded them; but
we have 20 time to look further. A Senate COM
po.ed Of such a. Messrs. MANN, VARNUM, GOULD,
HUBBEII, NOXoN and OWEN, cannot fail to do
serve and secure the confidence of the People.

Who Rave .hors personal Interest ia representing
81 history as 10 better than romance. However
tbi. may he in Mr. Cushing's case, the particular

states TO be, the singular misconceptions regard

very fact "sIe seen to prevail in the most To-
"telligept portions of the United States" The
particular instance which be cites of this mis-
COZ ceptoD, o. sufficient TO shake bis faith 10 all
history, is the statement, made from time to time
in the newspapers, and lately reported 10 The
Daily Adrtrtise7, that "Wskers attempt at usur-
patton in Nicarsgus had been at some time recog
nized as an established government BY the United
"Staies This Mr.. Gushing Asserts to be gross,
total and entire mistake. The Government Of
Nicaragua which the United States recognized WAS
not the Government Of Walker. II was, be tells
Us, the Government If Rvas. Inssmuch, heTever,
as Rivss vas the mere puppet Of Walker, as he
he'd tie flee Of President only BY Walkers per-
mlssOD, huQ as Ill HIS bClS NtIc hcu unucio60"N "
be dictated by Walker, it does not appear to u'
such tot Il error or quite fatal to the credbiliy
of all history, as Mr.. Gushing represents to speak
of TIE recognition Of Riyas as having been the
recognition of Walker. 1t appears to us to DO
merely dong that which history in relation to the
psst, ard journalism 10 relation to the present,
ought to dO--strPpiDg off the sleeps clothing and
showing up the wolf in bis own proper character.
To have Represented OF the contrary, - Mr.. Cush'
irg does, that the Government Of Rivas was
recognized "not becauie Of the ntruded presence
"of Walker in Nicaragua, but in spite Of it,"
would have been, as il seems to US, an evident de-
psrture from TIE truth-a mere piece Of romance
siLce, but for Walkers Intrided preseDcs in Mica
rsgua, there would have been no Government Of
Rivas to recognize. On the whole, unless Mr.
Gushing can produce some stronger ground for
abandoning all faith 10 history, We must stl con-
true to speak with certain degree Of assurance
of events, both past and present.
