A HsToRIc4L SoctETY IN CLEVELAND
Buffalo has had Historical Society for ssv.
sral months past, and has accumulated suct
a mass Of books, documents, pictures, old
maps, Indian relics, old clothes of historic in.
tsrest, buffalo robes, autograph letters of en-
inent BuffalOes, surEeyors' charts, sketches
of Buffalo, maps of Buffalo, statistics Of
Buffalo, combs Of Buffalo hcra, and othel
things not only pertaining to Buffalo, but to
almost every other spot on the globe, that
they hardly know where to store them. If
people continue to send in historical articles
at the rate they have been doing since the
Society was organized, it is not improbable
that in a few years Buffalo will be one i'm
mense historical museum.
Some of our citizens, jealous that Buffalo
should be so much ahead of US in the histor-
ical business, have just inaugurated Society
here, to be known as the ''Gleveland Histor-
ical Society" The first nesting, for the pur-
pose of organizing, was held last evening at
the Office of Geer's Livery Stable. Willow
Wareman, Esq, was chosen Chairman, and
Harry Little Esq, (sOmetimes known as
''Little Harry") was chosen Secretary. The
Chairman briefly stated the object Of the
meeting, which was to organize Society for
the purpose of collecting and preserving
whatever may be of historic interest in con-
nectiOn with the City of Cleveland. He
hoped the Society would receive the cordial,
he might say the GOdfrey's cordial CO. opera
ton of our citizens. he said he had received
numerous assurances of assistance in the en-
terprise since it had been projected, and
from men, too, whose aid would be invalua-
BILE. One well-known citizen had offered to
head the list of donations, the Chairman
said, with the cold Round Church, on Wood
street, but as the Society has no room yet, in
which to keep it, (it would be inconvenient
to store it in Geer's ofice) the generous dona-
tiOn was declined for the present. The
Chairman said they must begin moderately,
and if any gentleman had a small school
house to donate, the Society would be glad to
have him head the list
It was suggested that a Constitution be
adopted for the Society, but it was finally
decided that each man should 60 it on his
own constitution. The historical business is
bad for weak or impaired constitutions.
Permanent officers were elected as follows,
to serve for one year unless otherwise draft
ed:
President-W. Wareman.
Vice, President-C. I. Jeweler.
Corresponding Secretary-Harry Little.
The Society adjourned to Monday evening
next. Citizens can send their donations to
the Corresponding Secretary that they may
be properly registered and published. A list
of the donations with the names of the DO

TIE SPRING TRADE.-Nature seems deter
mined to be premature this year. Spring wea-
Their is visiting US in midwinter, and sultry at
mosphere, bright skies and unfrozen skating
ponds leave but faint memory Of the bolster
Gus but congenial season which January was
wont to bring us. Business appears to follow in
the wake of the weather, if we can Judge from
the aspect of the principal streets. On Broad
way the beginning Of the spring trade manifcsts
itself in a cheering and exuberant fashion. New
stores are being opened, and old stores touched
up, redecorated and revived. New signs meet
the eye at one point, and old signs, with new,
bright faces, remind one that fresh and hope
full season inspires the merchant class with anti
cipations of large and profitable trade. Upon
the whole, our business thoroughfares wear the
cheerful look of old times, as though the days
of national gloom and disaster were passing
away, and prosperity was beginning to return
with all its former brilliancy and promise.

stages of this rebellion the slippery philosopher

States, az General Scott, in one of his five
alternatives, suggested to President Lincoln,

! But wherefore? Why thus submissively con-
sent to disruption Of the Unions Because
there was powerful faction in the winter Of
1860, and down to March, 1861 in the republic
can camp at Washington, in favor of this course
Perhaps, too, this policy would have been
adopted but for the bombardment of Fort
Sumter, the secession of Virginia and of the
so-called border slave States, which she drag
ged along with her into the Dismal Swamp
of this rebellion. The seven original seced-
ing States, if allowed to try the experiment OF
q separate confederacy, it was thought would
soon devour each other, like the Kilkenny cats
or would soon come back again. In either
event, the institution Of Southern slavery In
those seeding States would be undermined
dsmoralized and broken up; and, in the mean.
time, the anti-slavery party Of the North, re-
lieved Of South Carolina and her cotton con
fedsrates, would be able to rule the roast at
Washington with high hand.
Fort Sumter, however, and the secession o,
Virginia precipitated the war, and from tina,
hour the abolition Jacobins began to lay their
plans to drag the administration into an abo.
ltion crusade. They would sxtirpate this
Southern institution Of slavery root and branch

colonial condition Of Territories; they would
reconstruct the Union upon the basis of human

The LOYALTY OF THE PEOPLE on THE Fl.
NANCE QUESTION: There is probably no better
test of the loyalty of a commercial people than
he faith which they repose in the currency of
the government during times Of political diff
Guilty. Such test has been applied, and most
favorably responded TO, here in the matter Of
our postal currency. As soon as the newspapers
and other institutions-such as railroad and
ferry corporations announced that they would
receive nothing but the national currency for
fractional parts Of dollar, the people responded
at once, and shnplasters of all kinds, whether
Issued by municipal corporations, banks Or
business firms, vanished so completely that the
postal currency is the only representative of
small change now to be seen. Everything in
the shape Of small paper money except that for
which the national government Is responsible
is rejected almost universally.
LET THE DEAD Nor Be FoRGorrEv.--The
President has just approved Of q bill for the
issue of hundred millions Of dollars to pay of
the army, and the paymasters are already busy
in distributing the much desired and long
coveted arrearages to the troops. This Is we'll.
But, while government is attending to the claims
Of the living, let the dead not be forgotten.
There are thousands Of brave fellows who will
never answer to the roll call again, never
trouble the psymaster unless their spirits
appealing through the wants and sufferinss OF
those they have left behind them-should find
voice. They died many Of them, with large
arrcarage of pay due to them, aud thousands
of helpless widows and orphans to-day remain
the patient but Borrowing creditors of the
government Their cases should be attended
to with as little delay as possible. II is true
that the formula of the Second Auditors depart
mcnt is tedious and difficult; but we would
urge upon the authorities TO hasten the pay
men' of the claims Of the families of our dead
soldiers Much suffering would be removed
thereby.

The Continental Money and Oar N,
tionai Currency.


No financial truth is better established than
that paper currency, like other things OF prime
necessity, rises or sinks in value according to
the great law Of supply and demand. Ia illus
traton of this too much forgotten principle. we
publish elsewhere a complete account Of the
various issues Of Continental money, derived,
in part from Congressional and other sources
not easily accessible to the public. Il will
be seen that so long as there was no more cur
rcncy aaoat than the legitimate business Of the
country had been used TO absorb the paper
money was equal to gold and silver. When,
however, the point Of saturation was passed,
every addition brought new depreciation. and,
though all imaginable expedients, except re-
stricting Of the quantity, were put in force TO
avert so fatal catastrophe, the popular con-
sdence was gradually undermined, the Con-
tnental notes sank lower and lower in value,
tin. At length like other worthless shinplasters,
they became public nuisance, and by cen
yulsive effort were driven from the circulation
altogether and ceased to circulate as money.
One cardinal defect Of the Continental cur
rcncv was that its quantity was regulated, not
NV the wants Of legitimate trade, but by the
ey;renoies of war aud the poverty Of the gov
eminent. Thus It was that the currency was
hurried through the swiftly recurring stages Of
enfeebled purchasing power, till il finally cx-
pireI without groan. OF the three stages Of
par value. depreciation and demonstration. our
national currency haa. with wonderful despatch.
