The New York Journal of Commerce is a
paper whose business and interests are in
Identified with money changers. Itofcourse
advocates gold for the %bondholder. In an
article deploing the failure ofthe bill legal
ling gold contracts to pass, il thus sets
forth matters as they exist according to
present Radical law.
The fulfllment of u promise to pay gold,
however explicit, can only be exacted in
paper money. A ship is chartered alta low
rate, the freight money or consideration
payable in gold coin of the United States.
The charterer may reduce this rate still
lower by refusing to pay the coin and Of
fering grecnbncks. A merchant holds n
cargo of merchandise on foreign account,
and offers 1t Mt n certain price in gold. The
buyer closes with the offer, receives the
goods, and then meets the demand with Il
tender of paper money. A dealer offers his
customers the choice of two rates, one
payable in gold, the other ~wconbacks;
they accept the former, but when they come
to pay they claim the right to cancel their
obligation in the inncy promises. This
~ the law us il stands.
Yes. the law M it stands; but according
Ia the Radicals and the journal of Com
merce il is law Tor the people only. 1t is
no law % rthc bond-holder. HIS contract
for gold, not long, must be observed to the
letter, but his contract FOR money, the
money of the country, the money which he
loaned the government, must also be paid
in coin This is Radical law and logic
A may agree with b 10 pays certain sum
in gold-may borrow $40, 900 in the yerit-
BILE metal and bind himself in writing to
return it; but under Republican law he can
repudiate the contract and compel b TO re-
cieye $40, 900 in paper currency, worth only
81, 900 in gold, for his debt This radical
law-the law of statesmen" whose rigid
honesty as the Troy Times calls it, would
not permit them 30 harbor for n moment
the idea of reputation When, however,
A, b, c., and the rest Of the alphabet agree
to pay the bond-holder $4,000 withoutany
specification tic pay him that SUM- for Il
loan when government was borrowing large
~, only 80 cents on the dollar or $3.50 ON

This is radical-what shall we call il?

Spurious Senators from the South.

If the unconcealed disgust felt aud ex-
pressed by Senators of the old Radical
school, who really have a title of that de-
signation, could now be applicable TO the
reconstruction measures, so-called, where
by the carpet bag imposters are intrusive
members of the Senate by a quasi title,
then, in II judgment, said reconstruction
measures would be in extreme peril. The
tree being judged by the fruits, might be
cut down and cast into the fire. As things
are practically the most momentous and
most vital interests of the country are sub
iect to extreme peril by the inroad on raid
of m%ercenary carpet-bag adyentureTs upon
the floors of the Senate and House of rep
resentatives. The old Radical members
feel this keenly, bow their heads in utter
modification, and utter curses, not loud,
but deep, against their unworthy and really
illegitimately constituted compeers and as.
s%ociates as pretended Senators. The New
York Times Rad thus refers to the situa,
ton; ''We should think the new Southern
Senators might have been content to receive
pay as Senators from the date at which
their States were recognized and entitled
to representation, without desiring compen.
sation for the entire session, on for tn,
whole ofthe Fortieth Congress, since March
1867. We don't see ON what grOund8 o
justice or decency the latter claims wer,
put forward in their behalf. 1t woult
doubtless be a very nice thing for each o
these gentlemen 20 receive a donation o
81 5000, or even SO, 900, upon their entranc,
to Senatorial duties; but they certainly
could not claim they were entitled to it on
account of any services they had rendered
It is not every day we are able to agre,
with Mr.. Garrett Davis, but we %entirel!
agree with the motion which no pressed t.

The following anecdote is related of the Rev.
Joshua Brookes, Of Manchester, England, who is
said TO have had an irritable temper: THE
church yard was surrounded by low parapet
wall, with sharp-ridged coping, to walk along
which required nice balancing Of the body, and
was one of the favorite feats of the neighboring
boys. The practice greatly annoyed Joshua !;
and one day. while reading the burial service at
the grave side, his eye caught a chimney sweep
walking on the wall. This caused the parson
by abruptly giving an order to the beadle, to
make the following Interpolation in the solemn
words OF the funeral service: And 1 heard a
voice from heaven saying--knock that black
rascal off the wallr"
