ADDRESS, MADAME H. A. PERRIGO,
P. o. DRAWER 293. BUFFALO, N. Y,
New-York tribune., 1867-03-07

the country will be the richer for it in the
long run. We shall buy less and sell more,
and soon begin to reduce our foreign debt, IN
stead of continually increasing it. o.
OF course, we presume that our Currency
would be gradually diminished in volume as 1t
increased in value; but we do not desire any
legislation to this end What we demand is
simply that our Government shall cease to lie
by the ream. We see no practical use in re-
pcaling the Legal Tender act; we would only
make the Legal Dollar equal in value to a
real dollar, so that the Legal Tender act
wouId work no wrong and impose no hardship.
Make the Greenback dollar equal IN value TO
a Gold dollar, and its being or not beng o
legal tender would be Of no account to cred
itor. while debtor might often be shielded
from an exhibition Of spite or malice by hls
legal right to pay his debt in such lawful
money as he happened to possess
We refuse to be drawn into controversy as
TO the present volume Of our Currency Deing
too large or otherwise, or as to tbe prefera-
bility of Gold to Greenbacks or Greenbacks to
the notes of National Banks. We only insist
that grcenbacks shall be redeemable at sight
in gold, and National bauk notes in green
backs. so that the people may take their choice
Experience will soOn determine how much
Currency we need when that amount, and no
more, will remain in circulation, and the pro-
portion Of Gold, Greenbacks, and Bank notes.
will be such az the public interest and con-
venience shall require
We decidedly object to prospective Resump-
ton, that it is calculated to depress Enterprise
and diminish Employment. The capitalist VIII
naturally say, 81 can't afford to improve q
" farm, or build n house, or make any perma-
"nent Improvement whatever; because labor and
"materials will be cheaper as We approach
resumption: so / will hoard my means and
"waitr Hence idlencss, want, and suffering. But
let us resume at once, and, after transient
pause, the price of labor, materials, and every
commodity, will adjust itself TO the new basis
and then houses may be built and lands I'M
proved, with n reasonable expectation OF profit
Mechanics will not obtain 81 per day, as now
but SO will buy as much rs - does at present
and there will be more building, more plant
ing. and everything will soon be looking up
We rest on these truths:
|. He who owes debts fully due ought to pay
them if he can.
H. 1t is the interest OF all sound Business
and useful Industry that our Currency should
bo of fixed and uniform value and that
dollar should mean the same to-day, to-mor
row, and every day in the year.
III. "Thc true way to prepare for RcSump
" ton is to resume" So says Salmon =. Chase
and we most heartily agree with him.

COLLECTOR SuYTRES DEFENSE.

The letter to the President from the counsel
of Collector Smythe, elsewhere printed to
which the latter gentleman's signature is APP
pended, does not embody any evidence in
his favor, but is simply flat contradiction
of the report on our CuStom-lIouse frauds
made by the Congress Committee on
Public Expenditures. The elaborate defense
of the Collector from charges that were not
made against him occupies much of the letter,
and seems to us entirely satisfactory nor is
there any reason to doubt that soldiers and
good clerks were appointed by Mr.. Smythe
to places in the Custom House, But
these are not questions in dispute. Mr.. Smythe
!: accused ay tAs G9mgpgtteG Of profligato
practices, 6xtravagahce, and wanton inter-
ference with the rights of merchants, in con
necti0n with the General Order business,
and this accusation needs to be fairly met.
Mr. Smythe dismisses it in paragraph in which
no assertion of the Committee is shown to be
incorrect. 1t Is admitted that the price for
which the General Order business was sold was
to have been divided among the Collect
or'S political friends, members of Congress, and
n lady of the name of Perry. 1t is admitted
that the first transfer of the business disturbed
81 Iuuuy TulgS' lidf hI' SHlJluc IcCdHcu lli
and the only point made is his assertion that
he never received dollar from the transaction.
We need not question Mr.. Smythe's word, but
must say that when charges are formally made
by Committee of Congress against Reve-
nue. officer the public have right to
expect more than simple denial. Charges
distinctly made should be as distinctly
mot We gladly give NIr, Smythe the benefit

The Assembly Committee on the Internal
Affairs of Towns. and Counties are soon to
give hearing to the combined iiquOr-dealers,
who desire them to report bill to amend the
law OF last Winter. We have already ex-
pressed our opinion that this law which is,
owing to Judge Cardozo. only just getting
fairly into operation, ought not TO be touched
this year, except, perhaps, to add the lower
part Of Westchester to the Excise district.
Least Of all should it be amended at the inst
cation of the iquor-dealers. They will, of
course, employ able counsel, and we trust the
friends of the law will be prepared to meet
them. The liquor dealers, however, have made
one mistake. The ostentatious manner in which
they raised money to procure the amendment
of the law-and their boasts that money would
secure their object, should be sufficient to de-
feat them at once.

The important fact is announced in our
Washington kilograms that at the caucus OF
the Republican members OF the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES, held last night, the majority
wero clearly ip favor Of the impeachment of
the President, though no rash or hasty action
was taken The debate upon the method of
pursuing the investigation began by the Judici-
ary Committee of the late Congress was chiefly
between Gen. Butler and Mr.. Bingham, the
latter believing that impeachment should
not be attempted unless conviction
should be made certain by the investigation.
The new members were DESTROYS that they
should be represented in the Committee, but it
was decided that the seven members Of the late
Committee should continue the investigation.

We pint the bill reported in our Legislature
to restrict prostitution in New-York, which has
the sanction of our Police Commissioners and
Health Board. 1t Furnishes with fine of $500
property holders who lease their houses for the
use of prostitutes aud with the same fine keepers
of such houses. This penalty is in fact license.
The Police Board is directed to keep records Of
all such hotses and their inmates, and have
authority to summon their keepers before it.
The registered women are not allowed to remove
from one house to another without the fact
being reportedt TO the police These are the main

rendered, the spirit in which after their surren-

prize for which we fOught-a perfect
Union, regeneratcd nation, Freedom and
Equality for all We are glad to see that OF

admit these sacred obligations, and are anxious
to believe that with reflection will come
wisdom and moderation. Let the Rebel States
remember that this is the second time the loyal
States have offered them fair terms OF repre-
sentation, strict but not unknd. They rejected
the Constitutional Amendment as an insult, ana
threaten to defeat the intent of this law by re-
fusing to take any part in its execution. But
they are in error if they suppose that, by the
injury the North endures from their indiifer-
ence and inaction, it viii be diverted from

The Conservative" Unionists held State
gathering at Frankfort yesterday to decide on
their course in the pending election. We may
have advices from it in ourteLgraphic columns

the Democratic candidates now IN nomination,

Only two of the seven Conservatives re-

the Union had no ghost of chance. John
Young Brown is q representative man of tho
ticket, and what he represents we shall let his
own words tell We quote from letter writ
ten by him in 1861 "NOt one man or one
dollar will Kentucky furnish Lincoln to aid
" him in his unholy war against the South
" If this Northern army shall attempt to cross
81 our borders we will resist it to the death,
/" and if one man shall be found in our Com
"monwealth to join him, he ought and believe
"he will, be shot down before he leaves the
"State.n Since thisatrOcious declaration was
first made, its author has frequently repeated
if. and we have no knowledge that to this day
he has changed his opinions.
The Radicals, though they have two OF the
REPRESENTATIVES chosen in 1885, carried but one
district Randall's) in 1866. Still, they polled
oter $4,000 votes; and they have now nOmi-
mated a clean ticket determined to win
victory if possible-at all events, to deserrc
one. They pOlled more than twice as many
votes last year as they gave Lincoln IN 1851
their total vote standing thus:
1864. 277s6 1S65....42o82 1866 ..S'o1'
We hope to chronicle another advance IN
1867. They have good State ticket and
mean to have candidates for Congress in every
district. They can hardly hope 10 wipe out tho
1914 majority rolled up against them last
year, but they go at it as If they were sure OF
