The Game of tine Ronahosders.

The game of the bondhoders is to have
an early resumption of specie payments so
that, whether they are paid in lega-teIders
or in gold, it will make no difference the
latter being worth no more than the former.
Then, altlIough.they lent only forty, fifty
and sixty cents on dollar, they will be
paid one hundred cents in gold. They fa-
vor this upon the pretense that in it they
only look to the general interests of the
urtry! Let us see how it would work. -
The contraction of the currency and the re-
sumption of specie payments would cause
a ruinous fall in prices The farmer, the
merchant, the mechanic and the laborer
would net get half as much as the do now
for their products and labor. But the debt
would remain the same; or rather, the prices
of every thing else falling, it would be prac-
tically doubled. The taxes of the people
would be as great on account Of the debt as
they are now, while their means to pay
would be diminished half. 1t il is hard
for the people to pay their taxes now. what
would it be then? II with 100000, 900 in
circulating medium they find it difficult to
pay the l50.000,000 of annual interest up
on the debt, how would it be with gold
basis of less than 5000, 900, 900, and prices
reduced in proportion? A resumption of
specie payments is desirable, but not until
it can be done without doubling the taxes of
the peopleI

County Convention,

In another column may be found the pro-
coedings of our County Convention, held to
appoint delegates to the State Convention.
The Democracy done good thing when it
resolved in favor of the great statesman Of
the nation, Hon. George H. Pendlcton for
President. This is in accord with the feel
ings Of the entire Democracy OF the county,
and of this Congressional District. Indeed,
the Democracy Of the whole nation, North
and South, look to Penileton as their STAN
dard bearer in the great struggle of 1868,
wherein Civil Liberty is to be sustained, or
despotism established on this continent -
Mr.. Pcndleton's views on all public ques-
tions of importance are well known to the
people Of the whole country. 1t needs no
committees to wait upon him to ascer-
tain his views. They have been expressed
strongly-and they are in accord with the
feelings of fully two-thirds Of the people Of
the nation.
We take stock in Pendleton. He is our
man. We are for the payment of the bonds
in greenbacks, and Pendleton is the great
hampton Of that measure for the relief of
the people. Pendleton is in favor Of the
restoration of the Union, and every patriot
should hold up his hands while he laborJ
for tho re,establishment Of the Gov srnment
framed by our fathers.

A Case In POint-The EsOndhOid-
ing SWindie.

Mr.. A. b. lent the Government in 1863
GA. $I0O, 900 in grcenbaeks. At that lime
gold was $50 per cent. premium, SO that The
Government received, in fNnt, but 800
in gnld. Upon this $40, 600 in gold it paid
Sc, 600 annual gold interest, or fifteen per
cent In addition, it exempted the bonds
from State aud lO,al taxation, amounting to
two or three per cent more each year,
Thus. in four years the bondholder who
lent $40, 600 In gold, has received back S24,-
600 in interest, and has had his taxes exem.
pied for $1,000 or 5000 more, raking
$40, 900 in al. The principal of his dgbt
vac payable, under the law, in legal. tender
currency. To so pay II now in gresnbacks,
would give him Seyenty-iive or eighty cents
cents IN gold. But this does not satisfy
him. In despite of the agreement. he de-
mands Sl00 0l0 in gold from Government,
in addition to the $50, 900 in gold which he
has received in interest and taxes, to pay the
$4,000 which he originally lent in gold.
Did any body ever hear before ef sS.h an
extoytonate demand? Was there ever such
an unexampled usury? Was there ever such
an unprecedented robbery contemplated
upon the treasury? Who that is not bought
VIII HlpUt~, an Is oJu 4lOt1St agent,
can favor il?
Only thiu%! 1t is sought to pay four-
year loan 10 the Government of the United
States of $40, 600 with $50, 900, principal
and interest Will the people submit to
such an outrage? Will they look on and see
such yillainy cOnSummated? 1t it should
be done, there would be nothing like it as
swindle in all history. lfit is reputation
for the Government not to pay the debt
which it owes to its creditors, what is it
to pay two or three times as much money to
them as they lent to it? Is this not rob
berry of the people for the bondholders'
benefit? Is it not reputation, on the part
of the agents of the Government, Of the
obligations under which they are to the
country? The ILLUSTRATION which We give is
practical one. 1t covers the whole ques
tion of the bondhsid,rs in a nutshell Their
claim has no foundation in law or 10 equity.
The people are willing to pay the debt as
they agreed to pay it, but they are not will
ing to pay two or three times as much mon
ey as they received from their creditors
The latter are acting under very bad advice
or in spirit Of avarce, if they insist upon
it. The holders Of the 500 bond will have
been we'll treated if they are paid promptly
in kind, and for every $40 in gold which
they lent receive $40. Let them not expect
300 for $40. for it will not be given them.
Suck payment would be considered an
atrocious, usurious contract, and would be
set aside as opposed to public policy and
public morals in any court in chrlStendom.

IT seems that farmers living in the States
near the Canada line have been in tho habit
of turning their cattle into Canada, where
it could be done cheap, and of bringing
them back into the States in the fall, fat
and ready for the market. Secretary Nc
Culloch has been giving this matter atten>
ton, and he comes to the sage conclusion
that it won't do to tolerate it, so he has
issued circular to collectors of revenue,
declaring that ''Such cattle or other ami
mails on being brought back to the United
States can only be admitted to entry free Of
duty when they are returned in the same
condition as when exported. When it is
found on the importation OF suck cattle
that their condition is changed by fatten>
ing or other causes duty will be assessed
and collected thereon in the manner pre-.
scribed for the original importations.
Thus it will be seen that when cattle
which were fat when driven to Canada come
back lean, duty must be paid because ''their
condition is changed by fattening or other
causes" This is bringing revenue matters
down to fine point. 4.

Notwithstanding the multiplied reasons
we in the great North and West have to be
thankful to the hene6cent Creator for boua-
iiful products Of the earth, and for the gen.
eral prevalence OF health during the past
year, wan, and suffering exist among the
people to degree hitherto unknown
These have not been produced by natural
causes, nor are they the necessary result Of
the disturbing influences Of the civil war.
1t is near three years since the clore of that
unhappy strife. Had the pacific temper
manifested on both sides at the clcse, been
permitted to take its healing course, the
American Union would have been restored
Two years ago, and we should now be ex-
perisnciug the blessings flowing from revivs
ed Industry and the exchange Of sectional
products.
Why is this not the condition Of things?
There is but one answer-bad government.
Cur rulers, from ignobe motives, have con.
tinued to tear open and keep ever bleeding
the wounds of war, to prolong and exas-
perate social convuls;~ns in the devastated
States, so as to paralize all the industrial
arts of peace. So mady has this Internal
work been pursued, that the unhappy peo-
lc Of that region were so wholly occupied in
escaping the sword Of despotism and go
confounded with perpetual revolutionary
commotions, that their lands we're to great
extent uncultirated, aud millions among
them have fallen into the jaws Of famine
Thus, instead Of being encouraged and
re established in their strength, to buy'our
commodities and assist us in bearing our
crushing burthen of taxation, we are COM
PEELED to give millions to sustain the tyran'
ny over them aud 10 increase their misery.
And then who will refuse to listen to their
cry for bread? OF all the calamiiias which
hesct and wsylay the life of man, famine
Games the nearest to our hearts, and is that
wherein the prnudest Of US all, feels him
eelf to be nothing more than he is-help
less, depeudeat--compelled to submission
and scftened to the universal demands of
charity,
Never we're evils more clearly traceable
Ia BAL government. The suffering they
have oeeasioned is producing its natural re-
suit. Discontrnt pervades the land. The
elections Of 1857 show the popular determ'
inasioa to strike at the root, and remove
the. evils with their cause. Ere another
ye.r comes round we may hope to see the
record complete against the reckless and
frantic dastroyers Of our national prosperi>
ty and the happiness of the people. Let
US have good government again, and the
vail of distress will be heard no more while
bonignant Providence continues to shed
His blessings upon the nation.
The Democracy of Harrison County have
ffleir portion of this noble work to perform.
Are you preparing for the great struggle of
1858? If not, commence at once! See
that your township clubs are organized.
Now, at the commencement cf the New
Year, endeavor to increase the circulation
OF your county paper, for, after all, it has
to bear the OF brunt the battle. The heavy
artillery from the city does very well, but
the skirmishers infantry and cavalry
forces must be sustained.

DEATH or A NEGRO KING VINO HAS
SACRIFICED MORE THAN 10000 LIVES -
From advices by the French mail from the
west coast of Arica, we learn Of the death
of the warrior chief Mahba, who has for the
last six years been fearful scourge among
the native tribes inhahitatng the countries
bordering on tbs Engieh and French terri
tories in the Senegambia. With fire and
sword he established the religion of Islam,
killing all those who would not shave their
heads and swear on the Koran their adha-
renee to his faith. 1t has keen computed
that no less that twenty thousand human
beings have been killed or have died through
starvation, or have been abducted and sold
into slavery, by this monster Mabba, under
the cloak Of religion.
