Daniel Webster on the Evils of Pa
per MOney.--Thcn and Now.

I'm one of his great speeches, when in the
zenith of his gigantic intellect Mr.. Webster
thus in single sentence, sent forth to the
working aud producing classes of his
countrymcn a warning argument against
tho evils Of paper currency, which could
have been made no stronger or its TRUTH
fuluess more conclusive had he have olab-
Grated Il into a dozen columns;
Tho very man, Of all Others, who has the
deepest interest in sound currency. and
who suffers mos thy mischicvious legisla-
tiOn In many matters, is the man who earns
his daily bread by his daily toll. \ de-

whole race of those who are at once lille
aud crafty and of that other race. too, the
Catalines of all times, marked so as to be
known forever by one stroke of the histO-
rian's pen, men greedy of other mems
property and prodigal of their own.
Capitalists may outliVe such times.
They may either prey on the earning of la
Dor by their cent per cent. or they may
hoard. But the laboring man-what can
he hoardY Preyiug on nobody, he becomes
the prey of all His property is in his
hands His reliance, his fund, his produce

Whether he work on his own small capital
or another's. his living is still earned by
his industry; and when the money of the
country becomes deprecated and dcbased,
whether it be adulterated coin or paper,
without credit, that industry is robbed of
its reward. He then labors for a country
whose laws cheat him of his brcad.'
The argument that was good then is good
now. How little II has been needed by the

The Real Traitors.

The old National InteHigencer, which,
during its lengthy existence, has ever been
national and conservative in its policy,
calls the attention of the real friends Of the
country to the present efforts of the Radi-
Gals to obtain control of the revenues of the
nation, to aid them in their wicked schemes,
and says: ..J-s.
There is not a quarter of the Republic
wherein these ultra Radicals have not more
or less OF the power of patronage that they
are daily using TO Illustrate the patriotic
and beneiiccnt aims aud purposes of the
President. AS a purely defensive measure,
this patronage should cease. The tenets of
Radicalism are worse chan hostile bayoncts,
and their Use of the money of the Govern
ment for the propagation of such tenets is
like arming and directing hands against
the national life, by the authority and sane
tion of the head of the nation, who is sworn
| to protect this life. lia i.
| "The details of Executive patronage are
now so infinite that its ramifications go
like so many minute arteries throughout
the entire national body. No quarter of
the system escapes this influence, and in
ultra Radical hands this patronage is only
| pernicious poison in the veins of the nation
I-pOisOn, unless cOunteractcd-bene
(which we may finally be forced to succulnb.
| Wherever we look we see the same specta-
Gle that salutes our eyes here in the capital,
of garrisOns of men, fed by the Government,
whose hostility to the policy of the Presi-
dent is illustrated by their secret fidelity to
such leaders as Senators Sumner and Wilson
and Mr.. Representative Stevens, and the
like. Shall this suicidalpolicy last forever,
or shall we witness the arm of authority
raised to protect the vitality of the nation
against this horde of down right open
enemies, of mean and cowardly trimmers,

Things to be Thought OF.

Many of the holders of United States
bonds only paid from forty to sixty cents a
dollar in gold for them. For this they ex-
pcct to be paid one hundred cents a dollar
in gold, to have them released from all
State or local taxation, and to receive from
six to ten per cent. interest in greenbacks
for them while they are in their hands. In
other words, they expect the Government
to pay them twice ms much money rs they
ever loaned it. If they don't get money
never lent, of course it viii be reputation.
Think of that and then of this: Those
voters who voted the Republican ticket last
fall, with the understanding that that party
was not in favor of Negro Suffrage, are in
vited to consider the fact that Republican
Congress has voted to force that, measure
upon a people District of Columbia) who

The FESIANs.-We would like to keep our
readers posted in regard to the Fenian move
ments, but it would require daily paper to
contain the dispatches, and weeks study to
CLEAN anything reliable from them. 1t is
true that como Fenians have crossed over
into Canada; that there has been some fight
ing, in which few, on both Sides have been
killed, wounded and captured. Beyond this,
nothing definite is known. There are
rumors that the invasion has about played
out and rumors that II is just gathering to
head, and bids fair to be a success. A few
days more will decide whether the move
ment is to be serious affair, or mere cut
break of misguided men whose passions have
taken no council Of wisdom.
