WHICH AND 'ToTHER.-We perceive that
there is quite little spat going on in the
Mineral Point papers as to how, and by
whom, "tbe Volunteer lid bi1P' was squelch-
edi the legislature, during its last session.
One contends for this, another contends
for that, and it would seem as if either side
is anxious to clear his own party of the
odium Of that small contemplate piece of
business and no wonder that any party
should be ashamed to own the doing of such
deed. Outsiders are not generally well
skilled in the conjuring of plotting politici-
ans when they officially or unoficially en-
act laws to govern us, but any clique or
clan who have souls in them mean enough
to hustle on the table, or under the table, a
bill to provide for the needs Of the families
Of volunteers, when the cold winter is set
ting in upon US, richly deserves the execra-
ton of all the mothers and babies in the
land.

CHICAGO MONEY MARKET.


Chicago Journal of 18th says:
Gold was in regular panic in New
York this morning, and at the First
Board itran up to 1923. Where it will
stop no living man say. One thing
is certain : this state of affairs cannot
last much longer, and something must
live way. Some means must be de-
gvised, and that shortly, for resum-
ton of specie payments in order that
gold and silver may again from por-
ton Of the circulating medium OF the
nation. A total suspension Of specie
payments has proved a dangerous thing
causing an immense imitation Of curren.
Icy and unhealthy speculation in all
branches Of trade.
The brokers here to-day were paying
131 for Gold, 1875 for Demand Notes,
122 for silver and 106 for7 $40 Treas
ury Notes.
Eastern Exchange is extremity dull,
the supply being largely in excess Of the
demand. This speaks fayorably for the
West, and shows that the balance OF
trade is decidedly in our favor The
buying rates are quoted at 3@4 per cent.
discount, and selling rates par O. ! per
cent. premium principally at par.
Currency is very scarce, and some Of the
bank have had to pay out Treasury
Notes on checks. The demand for mon
ey is active.

Who are these imposing personages,
and whence do they come /? The ques-
ton is easily answered, for there is no
mystery abont their antecedents. They
are Knights of the Golden Circle Of
Public Plumber, the progeny Of corrup-
ton and the heirs Of shame. There is
Peacock Shoddy, Esq, to whose stacks
of "grecn backs" clings the curse Of
tens of thousands Of patriot soldiers,
sent to battle in rags that he might roll
in riches. There is Mr.. SPAWN, who
has made a cool million by supplysig
the government with war horses, frehu
from the tow paths Of canals and the
shafts Of clam carts There is the Hon.
Fungus Fitch, the ship manager, whose
pockets are double-lincd with official
and private percentages on the cost OF
sundry hulks purchased at one-third
above their market value. There is
Highlow Vamp, Esq, the rich shoe con
tractor, who furnished foot gear for the
champions of the Republic, only one
degree less worthless than his own sor-

of vampires? Their names and deeds
would fill Columns and as they are
recorded where dust cannot be thrown

These are new particians, fresh from

would suit them all, viz: cross beam
