in never trusting itself with the use of so
seducng and dangerous an expedient. In
times of tranquility it might have no i'll
consequence it might even be managed in a
way to be productive Of good; but in great
and trying emergencies, there is almost q
moral certainty of its becoming mischevous.
The stamping of paper is an operation so
much easier than the laying Of taxes, that a
Government in the practice of paper ennis
sions would rarely fail, in any such emergen-
cy, to indulge itself too far in the employ
ment Of that resource to avoid, as much as
possible, one less suspicious to present pop
ularity" y"-Hamilton's Works, q. 8, p. 1874.
In his speech upon the renewal of the
Charter Of the United States Bank, in 1882,
Mr.. Webster said;
Congress can alone coin money. Con-
gress can alone fix the value of foreign coin.
No State can coin money. No State, not
even Congress itself, can make anything a
tender but gold and silver in payment Of
debts."- Webster's Speeches, p. 2, p. 81.
In another speech he said:
II am certainly of opinion, then, that gold
and silver, at rates fixed by Congress, con
stitute the legal standard OF value in the
country and that neither Congress nor any
other State has authority to establish any
other standard, or to displace this"
But enough. The Constitution may almost
be said to be "played out"
The Demand Treasury Note bill has passed
and the paper is to be circulated among the
people. We have no doubt but that the
Republicans will grab them all eagerly as
fast as the Government mint can coin them
and won't give Democrats a smell. See i
they don't Marysuille Express.

GETTING THoyBLEsoME.-The Trinity Ga ,
zette says! Since Mr.. Perkins has interested
himself so vaiantly in their behalf, the Chi,
nese begin to think they are rather better
than white folks. Mr.. Webb went up 10 the
ditch day or two since, to open waste
gate above Chinese garden, when small
army of them pitched on to him. Webb
knocked down half a dozen Of them, and the
balance ''retrea,ed in good order." We
learn that some difficulty is anticipated by
the Collector Of Foreign Miners License. It
is thought that some of the Chinese in the
lower part of the county will offer resistance
to the COLLECTION Of the tax.

ToUcHING INcIDENr.-In his lecture, in
this city, "Artemas Ward" told some verv
numerous stories, that needed to be heard to
be duly appreciated. The fqlIqwiug is one
OF them: There is something indescribab'y
beautiful in the true wife's devotion to her
husband. There is something awful in her
grief when death takes him away. Leaves
have their time to fall but death comes ir.
regularly and relen' lessly. Irecently heard
most touching instance of the res ignation
OF an affectionate woman ut the funeral Of.
her husband Though she had adored him.
she did not repine at this dark hour. Look.
ing at the remains of her loved and lost hus-
band for the last time, she put on her bon
net and thus spoke to the gentleman whose
sad duty it was to officiate rs pail Bearers
"You pall.bearers, just 60 into the buttery
and get some rum, and we'll start this man
right along" Erie Observer.

The Great Inundation in GERMANY.

The terrible foundations in Germany still
continue at the latest accounts. From Ber,
lin, February 9th, we learn that the great,
dixie Of the Elbe at Niogrpp is broken, and
the whole mass Of the water had been pre-,
clpitated upon the Berlin, Potsdam and
Magdeburgh Railroad, and had completely
overthrow the dixie at Buda. The Meuse
Journal informs us that the waters are SLOWLY
subsiding, but still cover large portion Of
the valley between Namur and Maestricht,
in the low countries.
The Neckar at Caunstatt had risen twelve
feet; the Nagold at Cawl, the MUIR al Bakk.
poag, and the Rems at Schorndorf, had
overhowed their banks. At Hall the Koch.
er inundated the town to such an entent
that the new Market Square was navigated
by boats, and scores Of people had to es-
cape by these from the second stoyy Of their.
dwellings.
AT Trier, the food at one time reached
the heighth Of eighteen feet, but was falling.
The Saarlouis, at one time got as high as
twenty two feet, but on the 4,h ult.. coal
barges were passing down the valley of the
Moselles from that river. Along the adjal
cent railroads dams had burst and banks
had fallen in, and the tributary mountain
streams had swept off their side paths and
foot bridges.
Madgeburg accounts state that the dam at
Guebs had given away, thus completely iso,
la'ing the village, which is in deep valley,
and exposed to floods in all directions.
In the north and east of France, toward
the Belgian frontier, the floods in the yallev
OF the Sombre, were on the Departmental
Road No. l2, between Beamont and Aulncy
and were very destructive.

taken, the true course to be pursued.
