ipgs Of the Legislature, we have reason to sup
pose, will be limited to the special subject Of
removing the difficulties that prevent larger
representation Of the State at this time to
restoring the rights of citizenship to the great
body o. the people; to opening the door for
reorganizing the municipal and judicial systems,
anl rehabiitating the State on a basis COM
mensurate with its interests and worthy Of its
dignity. The great need that this should be
done without delay, will, if it be properly done,
reconcile the people to any irregularity in the
means employed. At present we are ina con
dtion of governmental anarchy.
Fears arc entertained that the temptation
to revive the credit SYSTEM will be SO great, In

But the cash, or short credit system, is the
best for everybody. We cannot get back to
specie payments without period Of great
stringeacy, which will be intensely aggravated
