Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday OF the current
week will be memorable days in the annals OF Wall
street, which have no counterpart since the close of
the Rebellion. on Tuesday evening we quoted
gold easy at 1875; to-day we quote at 1852
at l145 A. NJ. The closing price yester-
day was 14sX, and the opening sales this
morning were made at $50, difference OF 12 per
cent. in IL hours 1t would be preposterous to
attempt to connect the present panic with any
events at home or abroad now passing, or with any
possible complications in our political relations with
Spain or any other European power. The real cause
IL no other than the result OF vast combination
OF the moneyed powers OF this country, hav-
ing their headquarters in Wall street, with
possible ramncations in the chief capitals OF Europe,
with the design OF "bearing" the stock market
That they have been successful, even beyond their
most sanguine expectations, the result in the Gold

THE REAL ISSUE.
What the Democracy in Pennsylvania are
Fighting For.

The Washington Pa) Reporter, Republican
journal of much influence in the western part of
the State, in its issue of the Sth instant, thus
defines the issues IN the present contest in this
State:-
'"The issue Of repeal Of that amendment is here
directly made, and its friends must meet suuarely
and without equivocation or falterng. This is really
one OF the main issues OF the coming campaign and
it would be wise for US to fully comprehend the
fact Let it be distinctly understood that the repeal
Of the resolution ratifyng the fifteenth amendment
is one OF the principal objects for which the Demo-
cracy are lighting in Pennsylvania. The election
OF their Gubernatorial candidate is really
secondary In Importance to the accomplish
ment OF this end the great struggle is made
for the control of the Legislature and we would have
Republicans there and elsewhere to understand that
such is the fact and to become fully alive TO its i'm
portance. The gauntlet has been boldly thrown
down, and the Democracy Of Pennsylvania now as
heretofore make the contest one OF open and unre-
lenting hostility to the negro. ="
II the consent OF Pennsylvania to the fifteenth
amendment is abrogated II in fact all the results of
the war so far as this State concerned pucked
from our grasp, themselves alone must bear the
blame. 'Ye knew your duty and ye did 1t not"
