an hour. The effort of the Doctor did him
infinite credit, 1t was pertinent and eloquent,
and yet entirely fee from partisan allusions
He reminded all Of the obligations they owed
to their country, and enjoinel upon them the
duty of considering we'll and calmly in what
their duty consisted, in this hour of peril and
conflict. The speech throughout was listened
to with marked attention, and received the
commehdation OF all hearers The object Of
the St Joseph Society, in celebrating the day
with pic mic, was to raise fund for the ben
eft of the Orphan society, and this was refer
red 20 by the Speaker in appropriate terms, as
an object we'll worthy the attention of all
who take pleasure in doing good We should

occasion Of patriotism or pleasure, or as a
demonstration Of charity and compassion, it

The New York Tribune, in commenting up
on the refusal Of the Senate to tax whisky on
hand, says
The vote to strike out this tax probably
cost the Treasury five millions of dolIars--a
sum far more convenient to have than to do
without in these days, Bot is no use for the
House to resist The Senate is fixed The
whisky holders have it, and will keep it,"

GreenbaekS.

The rebel papers are complaining
that Secretary Chase is endeayoring to
flood the South with greenbacls, and
that the corner stone Of the Confedera-
cy IS consequently in danger. How
that which was so recently described by
jeff Davis as worthless and inflated pa
per currency could i'll any way damage
so noble a cause they do not explain
The fact is that the people Of the South
have no faith whatever in tho notes Of
the bogus Confederacy and therefore
eagerly dispose Of them for greeubacks
at high premium, because they know
that they are secured by a stable and
permanent Government They hoard
greenbacks III the South as our people
do gold; and there is no resisting the
conclusion that people who become pc
cuniarily interested in the maintenance
of & government naturally take sides
with it in a life and death struggle
The rebels, Of course, foresee the de-
moralizing tendencies Of this conversion
of their own worthless trash into good
money, and that the ultimate effect
will be to cause all holders to wish for
restoration Of the Union, in order that
their money may be made good. The
Secretary o. the Urea. ury need re-
sort to no extraordinary measures 10
furnish the means for gratifying this
propensity-the Southern people will
seek wherever they can find No man
will hold Confederate shinplaster any
longer than he can help it, and they all
esteem groenbacks the next best cur
rency 10 gold. as we do Faith lies
deeper than works.
