WAYS TO RESUMPTION.

Horace Greeley has a second letter 10 Senator
Morton in yesterdays Tribune and presents
various points of objection to the Senator's
plan Of Resumption as developed in his speech
and his subsequent letter. Briefysummed p
MI. Greeley's objections are these: The plan
VIII never effect its declared object the sinner
who resolves to repent at some future conve-
nlent season, never does repent. The plan has
been tried. and failed; II runs in the same
groove as Mr.. McCulloch's of the Fall OF 1865.
McCuIloch Numbered Imperiously agsinst our
inflated deprecated Currency, and proposed
to reform by Resumption-after awhile. Con-
sress authorized the Secretary TO cancel and
burn four millions of greenbScks per mon H.
This, Mr.. Greeley says, would have brough; us
gradually and surely TO Resumption had II
been persevered IN. But, when the can
ceiling of greenbacks thus ordered had actually
commenced, people discovered that gradual
Resumption was as dIstasteful as any other
Money grew scarcer; prices began TO fall; debts
felt beaver; payments were urged and found
difficult; Presidential election was Just ahead;
so Congress backed down, ordered the Secre-
tary to stop canceling greenoacks. and post
Poned Resumption Indefinitely. He (Greeley)
argues that the same result will follow now.
the debtors Of 1S7O-I will be quite as numerous
and influential as the debtors Of 1867 were
They will not heed the notice for Resumption
but say 1--WE thought you would back down as
you did before" ALI the arguments for post
poning now will be their arguments for post
poning then
Mr.. Greeley proceeds TO praise his own
Panacea OF Immediate Resumption He admits
that il implies lower wages and lower prices
for produce, and that Resumption would favor
the creditor interest; but contends that il wages
will be lower SO will the price of living.
some Of the debtors are now insolvent; others
will declare themselves so as a consequence of
Resumption. In all cases Of insolvency, the
debtors will pay what they can, and no more
Let us resume at once. and we shall proceed to
onset and adjust, and compromise; and very
soon all business will have resettled itself on a
sound, secure basis, and we shall be going on
prosperousiy. Immediate Resumption is a
cold bath which instantly chills, but speedily
invlgorates; Gradual Resumption is q palsy
which benumbs and paralyzes.
This Is DIR. Greeley's view of the case But
Is 1t not possible that both the doctors have mis-.
taken the diagnosis Perhaps the patient
wants neither cold bath OF q palsy to effect a
cure May II not be that the best treatment after
all Is TO stop dosing the sufferer Give nature
sonanee, try the benefit Of nonrishing diet.
and after a while he may be able 10 resume his
legs without any medical legislation in his be-
half. The country is not really getting on so
very badly. Since 1857 there never has been a
time when there were fewer failures, or when
be mer chants of the cou ntry, as 8 body, were
stronger. No doubt the question of resump-
ton will regulate itself hereafter without anv
dis tUrbaHce.

There seems 10 be a good deal of misconcep
ton in the public mind in regard to the shape
IN which the question OF the constitutionality
Of the Legal Tender act comes before the
Supreme Court. Ii Is evident that very MANY
suppose it TO be merely a made up case for test;
and that il is within the province of the
court 70 decide upon 1t now. or postpone it
Indefinitely. Consequently there has been
some pretty wild talk about applying coercion.
moral or otherwise, to the court to make il
decide either afirmatively upon the coustitu-
tlonality of the measure, or to lay the matter
upon the shelf Until the decision will have no
practical effect in changing values Now,
whatever may be the financial effect of an
adverse decision, and probably il would only
result in a settling o debts contracted previous
10 the war at their equitable coin value, the
fact is that the case reaches the court In a vay
hat does not seem to admit OF its being pigeon
holed. 1t is a case OF a ontract for money
lent in California IN go Id before the war and
on which the holder ref used satisfaction in the
paper legal tender. Ii ma. now come in regu
lar course TO the Supreme Court by appeal
from the Judgment OF the California courts
that the amount is payable in gold. This
brings the question of the legaIity OF the tender
act before the Supreme Court, and it cannot
escape giving a decision, If IL would The
Court can take sufficient time TO weigh the
matter carefully; and in the interim Congress
may have legislated in way to deprive the
decision of any practical importance.

watched quite closely by his jailors From
information given by other prisoners, Sheriff
smith learned that he had a large bowie knife
concealed in his cell, Jeter at first denied
most positively that such was the case;
but he finally was cornered, and at last
acknowledged the knife, and promised to

went INTO his cell the day before yesterday and

Known. 1t Is said he has q sa w also concealed
