The Currency. Question.

Does any man doubt the Copper
heads desire to create financial cri-
sis, in which the business of the
country may be wrecked? Here is
the proof: Three years ago they
cried Justify against greenback cur
rency, demanding that it be with
drawn and metal at.once substituted
for paper. Had this advice been
taken, bankruptcy would have been
entailed On every business man in
the land. q The. same men are now
eager ADVOCATES of an increase Of
greenbacks to the extent of two
millions. Their object is the same in
both cases. They wished to dam
age the public credit in the-~frst.
place by crying down the currency;
failing in this they now wish, such, an,
over issue Of currency as viii depre
,ciate the currency until the Govern
ment is bapkrppted.g VALLAHDIeHAM
and PENDLETON are at the head of the
movement in the Ohio campaign. and
the men who assembled at Hart
ilein's Grocery and nominated JACOB
MILLER, adopted the same platform.
And it lis an endorsement of this
movement which will inevitably bring
commercial disaster upon, the. eoun-
try, which the Copperheads are ask
ing theEbusiness men of Evansville to
give by electing MILLER Sheriff of
the county. We hardly think they
will be guilty of such folly. iaqss r

The Registry Law.

The election on next Tuesday will
be, the first held under the Registry
Law passed by the last Legislature.
While Indiana has long feltthe need
of such aiaw. similar ones have been
in force in the adjoining States of
Ohio and Illinois and other Northern
States for years, and their good effects
have been apparent. Tn order that
the results of our elections may be
quietly and satisfactorily acquieseed
in, it is highly important that they be
the correctly expressed voice Of the
people, and to this end the purity of
thesballot box must bepreserved. The
elective franchise issof little value, if
the willof the majority can be, circum-
vented by fraud and trickery, To
prevent this the Registry Law has
been adopted. The law, as it now
stands in Indiana, may be somewhat
imperfect, but after the test Of one or
two elections its deficiencies may be
detected and corrected. It may APP
pear to throw distractions in the way
of the free exercise of suffrage to
weA-known voters, but these incon--
veniencies should be quietly acqui-
esced in by all good citizens. IF the
law is properly carried out, it will
tend to protect the purity of the bal
lot-boxs And to accomplish this
honest voters will be willingsto un-s
dergo some trouble and delay IN de-
posting their votes on Tuesday next.

lCommunicated-les,

We notice id your issue Of yester-
daysan article headed, A Hint to The
lhunugers of oar County Fair; in
which you express a hope that they
will permit exhibitors to attach
their cards to the articles exhibited.
We have adopted this rule When
an article is put on exhibition for
premium, the name of the exhibitor
shall, as far as practicable, be kept
from the knowledge of sthe0 Judges,
so that they may judge of the merits
of the article exhibited, and not the
echi6ttor - our experience In life
being that mankinda are MOT, feptfneiy
free from bias or prej1dfce% hfter
the awards are made, we desire that
all exhibitors may attach their cards
to articles on exhibition. .a,m, a m
Persons who exhibit articles for
show and not premium, have a ways
been permitted to attach their cards,
and thus advertise as much as they
can. We do not aoont the Judges to
Enoso aoltose propertgEtkey dseL passing
judgment upon, and thus let them, in
one sense, be blindfold, as the type of
justice has been handed down ia us.
All exhibitors Will see the propriety
of our course. if they will but think.
Let as all be free from prejudice. III.
We still think, notwithstanding the
reasons furnished by our correspond g
ent in opposition thereto, that the
names of contributors ought to be
attached toStheb various ARTICLES ON
exhibition. 1t is a well known fact
that the names Of the owners of the
finest stock and the largest variety Of
agricultural and mechaniealf imple-
ments are familiar to the committees
awarding premiums If they can
fairly designate the animals or arti-d
cles deserving premiums, why can't
committees on table comforts, agri-
cultural products, &C., do the same?
Awards are not always satisfactory
under the>present system. We do
not thinkmany more dissatisfaction
would be experienced under the sys-
tenn adopted by the managers of the
State Fair. I'VE are very sure. a greater
number and variety of articles would
be placed 1on exhibition were the
owners permitted TO have their names
upon their contributions. The sug-
gestion that no objection willSr be
made to placing names upon articles
after the premiums are awarded,
amounts to nothing, for the thing
would be fonnd impracticable.

The Hstslligencer, declares that the Ju-

that the President is the judge of those
public events and combinations which
threaten the overthrow of the Constitu-

therefore urges him to employ all his au
thority to preserve the Constitution, and
to put down what it calls a wide spread
conspiracy to overthrow the Constitution,
as evinced in the enforcement of the Re-
construction Acts. The writer of the arti-
Gle has had, of late, frequent interviews

is attached to the editorial in political quar-

A letter has been received at Washing

of Customs at Corpus Cristi, Texas, in
which he says that the town has lost by
yellow fever, this summer; one twelfth OF

customs have been down with the dreaded
scourage, and every doctor and apotheca-
ry in the place have died. The town looks
like city of the dead.
