GOLD.
why IL should Come Down.

Why, under present circumstances says the
N. Y. Times, should gold be maintained at a
premium which damages the interests OF the
country, deranges its business, produces confu-
sion in the finances, aid affects the life and
industry Of all classes OF the community?
The country as an assured future under the
administration of President Grant. Its finances
even according to Mr. McCulloch's showing, are
in better condition than at any time since the
war. Both our current expenses and our
taxation have undergone a large reduction.
Our credit is rising in the markets of the world,
and our bonds held abroad ate held more firmly
than ever. Our cotton crop is now known to
be unexpectedly large, and cotton bills, which
have already appeared upon the market, will
henceforth supply the demand for exchange,
No gold has latterly been exported.
and there is not likely to be any
necessity for its expectation. Our corn crop
which Is now largely snipped, win be enormous
1t is estimated that II will be 200 000 900 bushels
larger this year than in any previous year, and
1t Is now beyond the contingencies of weather,
and entirely out of danger There Is general
prosperity among the people, general confidence
among The business classes, good crops, and fair
business in all localities, increasing confidence
and assurance in the Government and its credit
and the prospect OF more prosperous times than
we have known in the past. Why, then, should
finances, business, and Industry be deTanged by
the exorbitant premium on gold?
The country is now assured against anything
like repudiat on or any disturbance OF the peace.
As long there was danger from the schemes
of repudiators; as long as there was any Ilkeli-
uOOu vi ItuoW6u Us lOns us we
were threatened with q continuation of the
damaging quarrel between Congress and the
Executive; as long as the public accounts
offered only discouraeing exhibits, there were
reasons why gold should be strong aud the
public credit weak. But the high ground
which the Chicago platform took in regard to
the national credit has now been accepted by
the whole Republican parry and the great
majority of the people, and Will unquesnonably
be the fixed policy of the country. In like
manner we have an assurance of peace with
General Grant-peace iu all parts OF the land
and peace between all departments of the Gov
ernment. And in dispellng the clouds of
reputation and revolution, we see nothing but
clear horizon for the future.
Every State elec ion which has taken place
since Grants nomination has gwen increased
certainty to his success. We are on the eve of
elections in four other States, and we have not
been able TO entertain any doubts of the result.
And not the least of the benefits which we hope
to obtain from Republican triumph on the Sd
Ofkoyember are the improvement ofour finances
and the rectifcation OF all those arrangements
which are experienced through the damaging
premium on gold.
