The enemies OF Republicanism have pre-
dicted that upon the rock of Finance the
great party Of the Union would split. just
now, it doesn't look so. On the contrary,
the Republicans will overcome every diff
Guilty in their path by such an adjustment
of the Financial and Labor questions AS
will relieve and satisfy all sections The
payment of the 5-2Os in gold or in paper
will be arranged simply by providing for
their conversion into long loan, explicitly
made payable in coin. Those who don't
convert can wait fifteen years, till their bonds
are due, and get gold or paper as they prefer,
since it will be long after the resumption Of
specie payments. This renders the mis-
tirely impractical issue, and removes that
disturbing element from the board AS for
currency, Congress has stopped contracting,
and will doubtless relieve the strangulated
South and West by giving them share of
the banks, and thus setting the vital circula-
ton of trade in motion. Against these
measures nobody will or can complain ex-
cept the gold gamblers and usurers of New
York and the East, from whose votes the
Republican party has had nothing in the
past and expects nothing in the future.
But the forlorn hope which the Democ-
racy hope to organize as National party,
with all its heterogeneous, dispiritcd ele-
ments, is already at daggers drawn on the
Financial question Pendleton demands an
issue of eighteen hundred millions Of paper
money to pay off at once the whole of the
present funded debt. This is reputation, OF
course, virtual and absolute, but there are
many of the Western ruiiians Of the Henry
Clay Dean and Brick Pomeroy stripe, who

trouble of printing the grcenbaeks, but re

ploying such intermediate means. Upol

hopes Of success.
