was Neutral and not political paper. On these
grounds we subscribed to it, but in his number
of August the 10th we find an article. "The
only Remedy" If that is his position we would
like to know it, and of course that is not Deu-
trail position Please ask the editor, for US, if he
has forgotten his promise.
Yours truly.
SUBSCRIBERS.
We publish the above, first, because we
always publish all communications from the
people, and secondly, because the charge
made in, the letter is true. The Inteltagencer
has always protested to be neutral paper,
vet we have on several occasions seen in its
columns articles which plainly evinced
party spirit. In its next but last issue, it
had an article intended to intimidate col
ored men who did not vote the Democratic
ticket at the late township elections. 1t
threatened them with loss of employment,
and with starvation, if they voted against the
Democracy. In a political paper this would
be called infamous. In professedly neu-
trail paper it is worse, if possible. From a
partizan sheet ultra views may be look
ed and partizan bitterness be not unex-
pected. But in neutral paper such things
are not anticipated and are far more impro-
per. If any employee of the government
should be turned off for voting against the
government, what howl would be raised
by the Democratic and neutral ca press.
Yet for simply exercising the right of voting
as they think best, the Lntellige'acer threat
ems the colored people with starvation and
with being oppressed by the Democracy.
Is this the universal suffrage" that the
Democracy are in favor OFF, We do not
deem the threat Of the IntelHgencer OF the
slightest Importance, except so far as ii
shows the bad feelings Of a certain class
of people 1t is merely an exhibition Of
spleen by men who have been defeated
Labor is always in demand, and neither the
employer nor the employee can dispense
with the other But the complaint of ou
correspondents is just. They subscribed fol
the Intelzigencer solely because it was a me1
trail paper That was the understanding
and the proprietor ofthe paper had no right
to violate his agreement. If he wishes tt
make the Hatelligencer political paper, HI
has the right to do SO, but should do i
openly and above board, and not make hi:
political attacks under the cover of his as
sumed neutrality.

In speaking of the coming meeting for
the Identification of the battlefield of Get
tysburg, Richmond paper has the follow
ing, which We regard as truthful and appro-
pirate. 1t is well.known fact, that the
soldiers of the two armies have far kind
lier and more respectful feeling for each other
than have those who took no part in the con-
test. Those who were the first in war, were
also the first in peace, and had their feelings
prevailed throughout the land, the present
bitterness would not now exist. We regard
the coming meeting of the officers of the
two armies as thing of good, apart from
its mere historical Importance. 1t is the meet
ing of those who stood front to front during
four years of hard fighting. 1t is the meet
ing of those who learned to respeet olcl
other as brave and honorable foemen. Its
the avowal of mutual amity, and vii Do
much to bring about better state o. feel
ing. The following is the extract referred
We are not considering this subject il tin
light of mere rosy romance, but to those wl0 Dc
it will occur as another reason shy General 10
should attend this gathering, and be rcinft go
by as many of his old companions in arms as
possible that the effect upon the country and the
world would be almost magically dramatic That
kindly and fraternal feeling and mutual respect
exist between both the officers and men OF the
old Army of Northern Virginia and the Army OF
the Potomac, is not questioned bJany one who
belonged to or has associated witt either side
But the spectacle of the officers of those two ar

The Hon. E G. Spaulding has made
compilation Of his acts and speeches while
in Congress, with brief comments, which
lie publishes under the title Of Financial
History of the War; for the purpose Of
showing that he is the genuine and real
original author Of tho legal-tender paper
money. 1t is unfortunate for his CHIN to
priority of invention that he quotes on the
utle-paSe the following extract from
Thomas Jefferson
"lu such naiion u this there Il one, nuh only

A the remaining two hundred aud ffty-
three pages nowhere show that Mr. Jeffer-
son borrowed from Mr.. Spa1lding the iaea
above expressed, the effect of the work as
whole is to leave tho impression that AIr.
Jefferson is entitled to tho credit Of having
first suggested d leenl-teudor currency as
war measure, while to Mr.. spaulding
remains the credit Of having agreed with
alr. Jefferson in opinion, as did also Mr..
Chase, Mr. Stevens, and minority of Con-
gress. We are bound to say that Mr..
Spaulding would have sustained his claim
very plausibly IN the remainder Of his
work had not bus title-page rendered the
Claim itself impossible.

THE PALL'M GOLD,

The announcement by the Assistant
Treasurer TINT he would sell eleven millions
Of gold and purchase thirteen millions of
bonds during December, caused d tumble
of gold from l24 to 1919, the lowest vibza-
tion reaching l2l. As the government has
about seventy millions OF gold On hand
besides what. is covered by gold certificates,
1t becomes m interesting problem to In.
quire whether, If the sale Of eleven mill
ions reduces The premium per cent, the
sale Of seventy milliona would not reduce
It Il per cent, or to par. An experiment
which proves SO successful on moderate
tlial deserves to be more fully tried
No doubt the offer to sell gold would not
SO dePress the premium we're it not that the
returns fos cur heavy exports Of cotton and
petroleum have tended to stop the
export Of gold. OF petroleum alone
our export has risen to the enormous figure
Of so,o0o.ooo gallons, worth, probably.
$50, 1000 Our cotton crop will net
probably $3.50, ,0Oo, 900. With our other
exports, thesa are rapidly reducing the de-
mand for gold to satisfy CUR foreign bal
ances- These facts, and our enormous es-
cess Of revenue over expenditures,
supply the main causes for
the decline in gold, OF which
the announcement Of sales by the Secretary
affords only The occasion. Our recsipts
from customs for The past gear reach
Sle4 10000 Our gold interest is
S13o, ,o00, COO, and next year will bs
Sl25, ,Oo0, 600, and thereafter will constantly
and rapidly decrease. This year We have a
surplus gold revenue Of S54 100000 ore.
ourinterest-nextyea year it will bs sec, ,00o, 900.
All these facts point to an early resumption
Of specie payments by the natural process
Of enhancing the credit Of the government
and removing tho premium on gold. That
premium is now lower than it has been at
any time since September, 1869.
