kind and prudent management the
whisper grows louder on every side
that she Is fast becoming an old maid.

may reflect; while others beauty is

an old maid. t.

. WHY COLDS SO 1nrG11
Tie Scientjfc american whose
views upon most practical subjects are
emn emily sound and reliable, thus
endeavors to explain "nhy gold is so
high "4'
There .is but one cause Of the high
price Of gold, and that is the exces-
sive quantity of our paper currency.
tho thing that fuctuates SO in value's
not the inccrruptible yellow metal, but
tue green notes that promise to pay
THEN face in this metal at some future
time. ...... .... ........... ...... II
When our currency was all specie
paying, and therefore Of the same val !.
ue as specie. the quantity in the count
ry amounted to 200 or $50 millions Of
dollars. This wss the quantity th,t
fell to our share in the the natural die.
t,ibution of the money Of the world
by the inexerable laws of trade. It
was just the quantity that we needed to
effect the exchanges of property that
we we're in the practice of making IN
the course Of our trade. If We had
wanted any more VIC should have sent
abroad seme portion Of our 10000 mil
lions Of property and exchanged it for
the desired amount of money. five
produced more in our own borders,
as we did Lot want it we sent it abroad
and brought in property that we did
want in exchange.
We now have in circulation some
600 or 700 millions of paper money
and its aggregate value is just the
same as the 200 or ESQ millions Of the,
old spocic-paying currency. This ag-
gregate value of our currency Is fixed
by the laws of trade, aud we cannot al
ter it. IF we should increase the
amount of our currency to 1000 mil
lions it would, provided It's credit wss
unimpaired, be worth 20 cents on the
dollar-in other words. the price of
gold would be 500. Bat if we should
diminish the paper in circulation to
200 millions, it would be worth 100
cents on the dollar, or gold would be
at par
We hear of powerful combinations of
the Wall street brokers to keep the
price of gold from rising, or to keep it
from falling. Those gentlemen might
just as we'll get up powerful combina-
tions to keep the tide from rising and
falling. As the thing that auctuates
is the value of Treasury notes, and as
the value Of these depends upon the
quantity in circulation, no person can
| exert any material influence upon this

The False Prophets.

Let man count up the false prophesies
of the Republican leaders-false, not from
intention, but from ignorance-and see
how many they are and to what they
have led
Nobody hurt: Three hundred thou
sand killed and wounded and sick
Seventy five thousand men: Over two
millions
Rebellion starved out in three months:
Rampant in 1864.
Back kbone broken at every success: Not
yet.
Opening of the Mississippi to com
mence: Running gauntlet of guerrillas
Every new levy sure to extinguish the
rebellen: Draft ordered for 5th of Sept.
Paper as coed as gold: Gold 24o
The people richer for the war Prices
advanced three hundred per cent.
Every campaign to be the last: But one.
Free soil: Four States making such
election returns as bayonets dictate.
Free speech: The suppression of news
papers.
Freemen Hundreds arrested without
warrant, Imprisoned without crime, and
enlarged without trial.
National honor: The abandonment of
the Monroe doctrine, and the kidnapping
of Arguelles.
Respect for law: The breach of it in
every State in the Union.
Belief in the Union as unbroken: The
manufacture of bogus States.
Freedom Of the slave: Apprenticing
him through military orders and crimp
ing him for the ranks.
Love Of the negro: Letting him ret in
heaps.
Love of progress and humanity: Wag
ing war against women and children, and
houses, and barns, and agricultural i'm
plements.
Care for the soldiers: Leaving them to
hunger, and heat, and thirst, and prisons,
and yermin.
Now, if man, after all such falsifca-
tions, can yet believe, he must have that
