SPECIE PAyMENr-E6ecfofR esamp
tioa.--The New York Commercial is
cndeavoring to forecast the effect of a
return to specie paymcnts-the inevi.
table consequence, it says, of the decla
ration soon to come OF the Supreme
Court that the legal tender act is un.
constitutional. The writer says:
I" In some quarters there is a Iaud outcry
against the injury that would result To the
debtor class" who, II Is said, would have 10
pay In gold, or its equivalent, debts contracted
In DEPRECATED currency. There Is unque.-
honably an injustice Ia this-the inevitable
counterpart Of that incurred upon suspension
--and one which cannot be avoided But. IL
must be remembered that as a rule banks,
bankers, merchants, traders, and indeed all
classes, have obligations owing TO them to
about the same extent as they are owing 10
others; so that their receipts In gold eurren-
cy would provide for their payments in a gold
currency. That there could be no extensive
injury TO the exceptional few who owe more
than they have due TO them, Ia To be inferred
from the fact that, when the government sus-
pended payments In specie, and the creditor
class had TO receive deprecated CURRENCY In
settlement OF contracts made on the gold basis,
ahere were NO failures, and no indications Of
sehiaas suffering; indeed, II was n rule, through
"A tiie vide fluctuations In the value OF curren-
cy during the war, that there was no visible
resulting injury to either one class or another.
Nor these, among many reasons which might
ne Assigned, We are not disposed TO regard a
hecssou adverse to the constitutionality Of the
eeGsi-teuder act as likely to involve any gener-
Al financial confusion OF any serious injury to
business interestsi on the contrary, we should
view u a. the introduction Of an era Of solid

The Lord Help Us.

at is stated 10 the journals of the
day that leading member of Congress
is framing bill which will put the
savings banks Of the country under the
supervision Of the general government. ;"
The Lord help us-if all the projects
for the degradation Of the State Govern
ments, aud the annhilation of the con.
stitutional powers OF the Federal Gov
ernment, succeed. Provided Mr.. Car.
penter. aud other Western U s. Senators,
eau put the coutrol OF all the Railroads,
and others, all the 1elegraphs, under
the control of the Federal Government,
Washington, as the Capital, will need
about 2 900 hotels to hold the Lobby
aud the place OF Member Of Congress
will be worth million.
AS things have been, under the old
Constitution, Of limited powers for the
Federal Government, the place of
Member of Congress has been worth
nothing-thcre being no Erie, nor Cen.
trail Jobs, no Pennsylvania Centrals, no
Northwesterns, &c, &c.--but with three
or four hundred millions of capital in
Railroads, a hundred millions in Telc
graphs. aud many more millions in
Savings Banks, Washington would be
too hot u place to live 10.
The Federal Government, hitherto,
has been kept tolerably straight by its
limited powers and the rascality has
been left to the States, aud their Lob.
bics- where it was not so powerful, be.
cause divided aud not centralized, as it
would be il Washington.

schemes, schemers, &c N T. Express

deficiency Of School Houses and available
funds were found to be the chief causes Of
the inefliciency Of the Public School system
in Carroll county. The present Board found
one election district nearly destitute of
School Houses, and many Of the buildings
IN other districts were in a dilapidated con.
ditlon, badly ventilated, having smoky
stoves, and slab benches. To remedy these
defects, the Board came to the conclusion
to use, with all possible economy, a portion
Of the school fund, and herewith build
comfortable School Houses aud furnish
them with good stoves and patent desks
wherever they were most pressingly needed;
and although much has been done to supply
the demand, several parts of the county are
not yet fully supplied as well as they should
be. This application ola portion oflheS School
fund has been attended with the bests re.
suits; and the youth of the county may now
be congratulated that the educational facili-
ties Of Carroll county will soon favorably
compare with those of public schools any
where.
Relying on the use Of the school fund, to
some extent, the Board did not ask the
County Commissioners for any additional
tax to support the schools in 1868, Us the
law contemplates.
