The DECLINE IN GoLD.-It will be seen
from the record of events in Wall street that
gold within the past few days has undergone
quite decline. The highest point touched
this year was 144a Yesterday the price
had yielded to 1921. In other words, when
we were paying for the goods which we
imported from Europe in the spring gold was
dearest Now, when we are just about to
begin our cotton and grain shipments to Eu-
rope, gold is cheaper. The spectators always
manage to profit by these differences, while the
general public are the losers.

"a WORK OF NECESSITY. While tarrying
for brief space of time at Cory Pa, en-
route to General Kane's residence, General
Grant was called upon for speech. He re-
piled briefly, thanking the people for his re-
ception, and said he was sorry to have dis
turbed them at so early an hour. Upon this
voice cried, "You disturbed us earlier than
this one morning before Petersburg" To
which Grant Immediately responded, "Aye,
but that was work Of necessity" This Is
one of Grants prettiest speeches. No doubt
the country will find General Grant as it did
at Petersburg, ready whenever the occasion
for another ''work of necessity" arises. In
the meantime let him enjoy his Connecticut
particular" while luxuriating among the UNI
brageous shades Of the Aleghanies.

whole held still before him, and upon the
measures and results of his administration
during the next three years the question of the
succession will be determined.
Mr.. Chase, therefore, is too early in the
field with his new party. In the progress Of
events it may WELD the balance Of power
between the two older parties Of the country,
or 1t may be absorbed between them. Rejected
by the Northern democracy and repudiated by
the administration, the chances Of this third
party are somewhat dubious, and 90 are the
chances of Mr.. Chase. He has been unfortu-
nate as pilgrim for the White House. He
had reason to be hopeful from his first expert
ment as q republican in 1906 but he showed
his hand too soon in 1864, and too soon for the
Tammany Democratic Convention Of 1868.
Those old copperheads could not understand
his brilliant Transformation, though Greeley
seemed to understand ii and admire It. 1t
may be that Greeley Is still an admirer of Mr..
Chase. He certainly displays remarkable
leaning 10 this new Southern party. At oil
events, we apprehsnd that Mr.. Chase is too
early in the field with his third party, and that,
done for with the republican party, his asso-
citation with this new movement will only
serve to finish him among the Northern demoo-
rscy. II was shrewd remark Of old Colonel
Dick Johnson, that the Presidency Is neither
to be sought nor declined, and he who is too
hot upon the trail 10 sure to DO thrown of.
There may be chance for tho Chief Justice In
scrub race, and II General Grant perseveres
in doing nothing we may have scrub race
for the succession open to all corners. The
whole question is in the haaas Of General
Grant.
