How viii the GreenbneR Question
AGect the Interests OF NTOrNInE
from ~ :phRadeEphta Aedgcr.

People
From tho philadelphia Ledger.
One of the many propositions likely
to come before the country touching
tbs finances and the public debt, is that
to pay the five-twenty United States
bonds by an issue of greenbacksi in their
place. Notwithstanding II is apparent
that a policy OF this character, even adj
hitting that 1t WAS at all practicable,
which 1t is not, would be to tD1ure
every workingman and woman in the
country, there are men claiming to be
Intelligent who will favor its consum-
nation. 1t is the pockets OF the man or
woman who works, in which Is
found the great bulk OF the
amount of circulating money. The
capitalist hardly carries more money,
perhaps not MS much, in his pobket, as
the mechanic who Keeps no bank ac-
count. The capitalist has his warehouse
his dwelling, his mill, his cotton, his
wool and his real property OF every
kind; lie might lose the paper money
in his pocket and all his United States
bonds, when they were gone he would
hold larger relative proportion of the
property OF the country than he had be"
lore, while the mechanic and the labor
er, whose all would be in his pocket or
in tho savings bank; would lose his all
-he would have no property torepre-
sent his past labor. Now, to the extent
that money is cheapened by an increase
of its amount, will those holding II suf-
fer, and as the laboring classes hold the
greatest amount, they must necessar-
ly be the severest sufferers. 1t is desi-
rable to have enough currency to carry
on the exchanges of the Countrywide
yOnd that, currency is not only useless,
but absolutely detrimental to the in
dustrial interests. As to payiug the 70
debt with an issue of greenbacks, the
idea is preposterous.

The Richmond Enquirer appeals TO
the young mon OF Virginia to organize
for the defeat of the constitution to be
submitted to the people OF that State,
with an enthusiasm as ardent as that
which famed through their ranks when
they rushed to arms in 1851"
We apprehend that reference to 1851
is hardly calculated to enthuse the
young men OF Virginia to any consider
able degree. 1t ought at least to cause
them to remember that the same men
who are urging them TO oppose the res
toration policy of Congress. first Sc
duced and then forced theyoung men
of Virginia into cruel, useless and de-
structive war. which sacrificed theIlives
ola vast majority of their number, but
spared their betrayers and tyrauts.

MR.THAppEUsST STEVENS must feel him

bulletins of his health are appalling
and represent him MS walking spec

The easiest way for Mr.. Stevens to re.
cover his health, we suspect, would be
for him 10 give up public affairs. The
most cheering intelligence would then
be received daily, and everybodywould
soon cease to be anxious about him.

A YouNa MINISTER HUGdED AdAINsT

not thousand miles from Louisville.
Two sprightly and beautiful young la

sprightly and beautiful young lady, who
like her guests, was Of that happy
age which turns everything into merri-
ment. If the truth were told, we fear
we should have to record the fact that
these three misses were just little bit
fast They were fond Of practical jokes,
and continually playing all sorts Of
pranks upon each other. All three oc-

cuddled up together in one bed. Two
Of the young ladies attended a party on
the night III question, and did not get

hour after Invy l-sa ~. fha na.k.,
young Methodist minister called i15 ulis 4
house and craved nights lodging,
which was OF course cheeriully granted
As ministers always have the best Of
every thing, the old lady put him to
sleep in the best room, and the young
lady (Fannie) who had not gone to the
party was instructed to the duty Of sit
ting up for the absent ones, and Of in
forming them OF the change Of rooms
She TOOK up her post in the parlor, and
as the night was sultry, sleep oyercame
her, and she departed on an excursion
to the land Of dreams
We will row return 10 the young la

of the moo1ibeafns as they struggled
through the curtains, The ladies were
enabled to descry the outline Of Fannie

There was one prolonged scream, |

was over. The thing Of the joke is tha
