EEIToR OF THE ARGUS, Sir.-Being pres
ent, at the city council meeting, last night,
| saw a foreible illustration of radical pro
fession and radical practice, as follows -
Alderman Halves, after having received pay
as Alderman, also claimed and received
Mayors pay, while he acted as Mayor-thus
receiving pay for both offices at the same
time. 1t is, perhaps, rather small affair
to allude to-but simple justice would give
him Mayors pay while he acted as Mayor,
and Alderman's pay while he acted as Alder
man. As it is he has drawn pay for both
offices while filing only one. Ii democrat
had done this, he would have been charged
with swindling the city.
Another case of radical consistency was as
follows: In voting for wharf master, Aid.
Halves discovered, when the ballot was near
ly through with, that he had voted for John
Newton instead of John W. Newton, and he,
without objection, took out his ballot and
amended it, before counting. But when the
ballots for marshal were being counted. one
was found written "Cropper.' Alderman
Lloyd said he cast that ballot and intended
it for E. c. Chopper, Alderman HAYES Oh.
jected to Its being amended and it was
counted "Cropper." OF course there was no
election, no tie, and no chance for the
Mayor to usurp the authority to give east
ing vote, and another ballot was had. III it
was right for Alderman Halves to amend his
ballot, why was it not also right for Alder
man Lloyd TO do the same?

~ ort time elevate greenbacks to par with
odd He does not propose any such infla-
son as would depreciate the currency, or, in
act, any imitation; and he would restore
confidence in the capacity of the govern
ment to pay, BY great reduction of expen-
ditures. The two important features OF his
plan are the extinguishment Of the national
banks, joined to the substitution of treasury
notes for their circulation, and rigid econ
omy in administering the government. ~
these purposes, he is in entire accord W..
Mr.. Seymour. The latter would drive oa'
the national banks, and save the interest," on
the bonds held by them, by redeemns 90
no,r &c such bonds as could be taken up
nh The cnrrency issued in the place OF the
hanL circulation. So large redemption OF
,L "n interest bearing debt would at once in
sae the credit of the government, and
Tim, advance the value of its paper OF all
Kinds. Il would be long step toward
snecie payment. If, added to this, there
were reduction of more than hundred
millions of dollars year in the national ex-
penses, the creditors of the government
would be assured of the prompt payment of
their claims, and hold them accordingly
Mr.. Seymour thinks it is immaterial whether
the bonds be paid in paper or in gold, if
both be of equal value.
The plan advocated by Mr.. Pendleton will
most speedily lead to such a result. The
government will gain by his plan in saving
interest, and in decreasing expenditures.
We are now required to pay $780, Oo, 600 OF
interest. By driving out the banks, more
than one-sixth of the sum may be saved an
nually. AS to his proposed economical re-
forms, Mr.. Wells the special commissioner of
internal revenue, has shown them to be
feasible.
The democratic is not only law-abiding
and conservative party, but is practical
business party. Its statesmen are not mere
theoretical philanthropists, but men who
have accustomed themselves to inquire INTO
the business wants of the country. Gov
ernor Seymour is therefore correct in assu-
ming that no. democratic administration
will fail in the pursuit of right financial
policy. Whoever may be the candidate the
democracy will elect in November, it may
safely be assumed that he will be a man OF
brains and honor, understanding what is
best for the credit and interest of the gov
eminent, and with capacity and disposition
to guard both.-Chicago Times.

Aside from this conventional protest

Talking through the evening, at the top OF

yet the noise made by the whole company is
so great that no one can be heard who speaks
low, or in natural tone. Many throats are
made sore and many heads made to ache by
this unnecessary noise, and persons subject
to bronchitis are obliged to avoid it entirely
In all Europen societies the voices are
kept lower than usual in large parties, and q
general hum prevails, IN which every person
IS easily heard by those he addresses. The
