A special dispatch to the Cincinnati En-
Q,dre, dated Louisville, March 0, says: 5
Mast night, about twelve o'clock, the train
from Indianapolis for this place ran off the
track at Taylorsyille. The accident was
caused by the switch being changed. The
lock and bolt which held the switch were
broken, showing that some person had done
It to throw the train off the track. A young
man named Herrick, of New Jersey; Major
johnson, of the 18th Wisconsin, and a lady
were instantly killed. Some ten others,
whose names / am unable to learn, were
severely hurt, three of whom are not ex-
pected to recover. Three cars were thrown
from the track, the last of which ran intosa
tree, completely demolishing it. t

dion Of the Currency.

Mr.. GALLATrN, in his recent pamphlet on
nCurrency, Debt and Taxation" lays down
the position: that our disbursements, during
three years past, have been the largest ever
made by any nation in the world in the
same length of time. This proves that
there never was Government" or an
Administration so corrupt profigate and
reckless as that with which this country
has been cursed since the 4th of March,
1861.
= The same authority also says that "with
the power now in the hands Of the Secre-
tary Of the Treasury, he can make wages
high or low, and he can advance or put
down the value of property In his discre-
tom Such Is the tremendous power vested
in.the hands Of single man at Washing
ton that he holds at will the entire property
of the people, and the subsistence Of every
man and that of his family is dependent
upon the Judgment whim or caprice, OF
single money Autocrat.
gs.After the war-of 1872" according to Mr..
GALLArrN, '.the greatest depreciation OF the
currency at New York, in October, 1915,
was sIxTEEN PER, CENT. discount and at
Baltimore In 1916, TWENTY PER CENT. dis
count; but the discount at the present time
on our Government legal tenders Is THIRTY
THREE PER CENT" Since Mr.. GALLATIN
wrote, the discount on the legal tenders has
increased to THIRTY-sEvEN PER CENT. This
depreciation it should be remembered, takes
place, not at the close Of the war, but while
It'll being prosecuted, as the Administra-
ton leaders claim, with the certainty of
speedy and successful termination. If the
national currency, with which Mr.. LIN
coins banker has furnished the peo-
pie in place of our old-fashioned
gold and silver coins, and specie
paying bank paper, is now at discount
of rHIRrY-sEvEN PER CENT what will it
be worth when this war comes to an end,
and the people are burthened with per-
manent national debt of roUR OR FIVE THOU
SAND MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, equal to one
fourth the value of all the property In the
country?
Mr.. McCuLLocH, the Controller of the
Currency at Washington, in his late circu-
lar to Mr.. CHAsE's new National Banks, de-
scribes in a few terse words the seeming
prosperity, false as the hectic flush on the
cheek of dying consumptive, arising from
an inflated currency, and the inevitable
consequences that must follow. He says:
"An increase of circulating medium initiates
priees-high prices require increased circu-
lation--and so they act and react upon
each other, and no redundancy of currency
appears, until a collapse takes place and
WHAT is SUPPOSED to be real prosperi-
ty is shown to be eWITHOUrASUBSTAN-
TIAL FOUNDATION"

Curicus Coincidence.

The Philadelphia Age states that at the
Presidential election in Florida in 1860, A.
347 votes were cast that State. Accord
ing to LzNcoISs proclamation, 1,434 con-
verts to Abolition would suffice to bring
Florida back into the Union; but while
he has failed to get that number as yet, and
may therefore lose the electoral vote Of
that State, the killed and wounded in the
last expedition just about amounts to it
THE New York 7'ribunes estimate being
fifteen hundred. Twill be siugularif, when
the accounts are corrected, the number
should be exactly fourteen hundred and
