one of its most important, if not it
most vital feature, the finance question
The sap by which the shIewder Copper

ta!ists who recently made the notable
demonstration in that city, favoring the
nomination of General Grant. Capital
is proverbially timid and capitalists,
are, as as a class, far seeing and saga
cious men. The events of the past six
years have taught them that the threats
and mutterings Of the evil designing
men who are struggling for supremacy
ia political affairs, are not to be disre-
garded. The Vaccinations and avow-
ais of the advocates of reputation,
who, under the leadership of Pendleton
and Vallandigham, have fixed upon q
scheme to embarrass and PROSTATE the
Government by complicating and Vita
ting the financial system of the country
have come to be regarded with alarm.
Such apprehension is well grounded
Tho struggle which is before the people
Of the United States involves not merely
the question of reconstruction, but the
question of the maintenance of the
present form of government itself. The
men who attempted to overthrow the
Republic by force of arms and they who
connived at and encouraged that viii
famous attempt would not scruple to
destroy by vicious legislation what they
failed to consummate by open assault on
the field Of battle. The payment, by
the Government, Of the owners of the
late slaves the assumption of the rebel
debt; and the initiation Of the currency
to limitless extent are not mere vaga-
RES in the minds of Copperhead theor-
lists and extremists they are the set |

and managers of the self-styled d" De-

money to the few who are the origina-
tors and prosecutors of this nonstrous
scheme involved in its achievement.
Even should it cause every dollars
worth of Government paper to depre-
ciate to FIVE cents valuation, it would
give corresponding value to the now
worthless issues of the - Confederacy."
With the financial system Of the United
States within the control of these mer-

dictation of such terms as would re-

of bankruptcy existing at the South ?
