THE FIRST ACT OF RESUMPTION

In the State Senate yesterday Mr.. Lord,
Chairman Of the Finance Committee, intro
duced the following resolution, which, under
the rule, was laid upon the table, to be taken
up in proper order and passed:
Resolved, Gfthe Assembly concur) That the prin-
cpal and interest Of the State debt contracted before
the 25th day Of February, 1862, and which i. not
held by the Comptroller or the Commissioners of
the Canal Fund i'll trust, be paid as the same ac-
crues and becomes due, in gold and that the Comp
| troer and the Commissioners of the Canal Fund,
respectively, purchase from time to time such
amounts of gold coin as shall be necessary to enable
them to comply with this resolution.
The 25th of February, 1862, is the date of
the passage of the legal tender act by Con
gress. The debt of the state which existed at
| that time, and the acclung interest upon it,
We're obligations incurred upon a coin basis,
and honor and equity required that they
should be SO held and met, although the act
Of q Radical Congress had legalized their re-
pudiation to the extent of the difference in
value between coin and currency. GOV.
! Seymour so viewed the contract, and rec
commended and urged the Radical Legislature
of this state to maintain its honor BY pr0vd-
ing 1or the payment OF the interest upon the
debt in gold. But it was all ID vain That
Legislature repudiated the obligations Of the
state and caused the interest to he paid in de
preciatcd currency from the Time Of the Gro
alton Of paper as legal tenderto the present.
| Now, with the first return OF the Democratic
| Party to power in the State, an act is prOpos
ed and it will he PASSED fer resume thn nay
ment of specie to whom specie is due. What
| a rebukc is this action to the Radical repudi-
ators who have lor years been constantly
hurting the false charge of reputation
against Democrats. 1t will be interesting to
note the position the Radical minority in the
Legislature will take upon Mr.. Lords resolu-
tion-Whcther they will oppose the honest
payment of the state debt IN coin and thus
maintain their consistency, or by voting in
favor of it stultifY themselves? Rochester

which the country took the power from Andrew
.lohnson's administration. In order to do that
they must tOrcgO any private interests, and magin-
AIRY political gain in the Localities by expenditure
OF money. Sensation and applause They must
rise above those considerations and look to general
results, and then the fingers of industry would
again apply to their work, enterprise would gain

and development and the nation would in the years

Applause. If that should be the policy then there
would be Il reduction of expenditures, so that
thereby the people might be relieved from the
burdens of taxation at one end of the avenue and
the public debt might be paid at the other. 1t was
with this VIEW and because he believed it to be q
test question: that he would vote to lay the bill or
the table, and would, on that motion, call the yeas
and nays, so that the people might know who
would stand by the Committee on appropriations
in its attempts to curtail the expenditures of GOV
crnment." [Applause.l
THE EFFECT IN THE HOUSE
A very marked degree of attention was
paid on both sdies of the House to the speech
of the Chairman of the Committee on Appro-
priatlons. The doctrines of prudence, econ
omy and care in the public expenditures were
received by the Conservatives in the most cor.
dial manner, and they repeatedly expressed
their satisfaction at the outspoken enthusiasm
and the courageous honesty ofthe gentleman
from Massachusetts as fully in accord with
the policy advocated by Democrats, not in
Congress alone, but throughout the country
AT the close of the speech Mr. Dawes received
numerous congratulations.
KELLY ADVOCATES EXPENDITURE
Mr., Kelly, Pennsylvania, followed in re-
bly, to Mr.. Dawes and in SUPPORT of the bill
but he had been speaking only few minutes
when the morning hour had expired and the
bill went over under the rules.

A VERY NARROW VIEW.

The Progressive Age, Of this city, can
'diScount' any sheet Of any time, in the
sordid, oue-sided selishncss Of its expressed
opinions. Its present trouble is the pending
resolves to the memory of the late Senator
FessonAcn. On this matter it makes use OF
the following language
The vote Of Mr.. Fessentlen on Impeachment is
set forth Il. the browning act of his public life and
he is commended for doing what he thought right
amid the reproaches of friends and the praise OF
foes. That vote did greatly grieve his friends and
delight his foes. The question was political one.
and his friends had strong convictions as TO what
his duty was as their representative.
This is an extraordinary position to be
taken by any person having the least claim
to intelligence. Mr.. Fessenden sat there on
that occasion, not as Senator Of the United
States, but as a member of the high Court
Of impeachment He had taken an oath
special to the occasion, we'll and truly to try
the issue between the people and the accused
The Chief Justice OF the United States pre-
sided. He sat there. not to bring in \ ver-
diet according to the strong convictions
which his friends III Maine had. but accorlino
to the evidence then and there presented to
hll~-whout regard to those it grieved or
those it delighted. His political friends had
said there say in the articles of impeach-
mont, found by the representatives Of the
people There the Influence of popular
clamor should and did end Thenceforth
the question came before a higher and
calmer tribunal, specially created by the
constitution, II was there . ju,ljcjM ques-
ton, pure and simple Was Andrew john
son guilty? Upon the law, the evidence,
and his oath, Mr.. Fcssenden said No. Is it
tor the Progressive Age to Judge the con-
science of the dead Senator, and say that he
decided falsely?
