The total product of gold and silver
in the United States for the year 1870,

addition t. the bullion exported and
that coined, a large amount of the
precious metals is used in manufac-
tures here. Gold to the value of from
80, 900 900 to sl3, o0G, 900 is used annual
ly by jewellers and others, a part of
which is cain, however, while silver
smiths and silverplaters melt up large
quantities OF silver bars. Mr.. Ray
mOnd's estimate of the gold and silver
production is higher than those which
nave been generally accepted; but he
has evidently taken great pains to ar

gives with ciearResS and at some
length the methods by which he has
reached the figures, which he assumes
to be correct.

THE CARPETBAGGERs AT THEIR
WORK.

The debt of South Carolina, actual,
authorized, and contingent, October l,
1867, was but So, iO7, 2l5 %; Nov. 6,
1871, there was an actual, authorized,
and contingent debt of S37, 792, sos 20,
which is a striking commentary on
Republican rule in South Carolina,
and an explanation why the Columbia
banks threw out the State bonds.
And now comes a dispatch from North
Carolina, showing from the Govern
or's message that the debt of North
Carolina is S3f.sO0.O 900, and the people
are unable to pay the interest on this
sum. The Governor recommends the
sale of the railroad interest of the State
to prevent reputation.
These are samples of the rule of

A CHANGE OF PROGRAMME IN
ARIZONA.

Vincent Colver's political neck
has been broken. The role of In
dian peacemaker has been interrupt
cd by the reveilIe which calls the
troops of Arizona into the field, and
General Crook again to the front
Colver's policy is repudiated by the
Government and Colyer with it.
The President and his Cabinet have
been slow to learn, but they have
learned at last. Gen. Schoield,
commanding the Pacific division,
has received orders from the war de-
partment directing that all the avail
able forces be at once brought out
against the Apaches, and that the
campaign continue until they are
fully subdued. and compelled to re-
main at the reservations.
\ Washington dispatch says "pri-
vate letters from Washington say
that Colyer overstepped his instruc-
tions, acting in many particulars
without a shadow of authority, and
is considered responsible for the
outraces and bloodshed which fol-
lowed his visit to Arizona"
We find in the Tucson Citizen of
Nov. 1lth intimations that Colyer's
fanatical programme was about to
be repudiated. That journal says:
Reliable letters from Washington,
of October 10Th and 18th. show that
the United States government has not

Though it is now claimed that
CoIyer had no authority for his pre-
sumptious conduct, it is scarcely
likely that he acted without orders
General Crook would not abandoA
operations without orders from
competent authority. The numer-
Gus murders and robberies which
have succeeded Colver's visit, and
the universal condemnation OF the
press. have probably opened the
eyes of the President and his Cabi-
net. and exposed the humbuggery of
this pretender. After having sent
Colyer on his FOOLS errand, and sus-
tanned him for months against the
people of Arizona, it looks a little
ungrateful to 10Y attempt to throw
all the censure on him. The Gov
eminent must share il with him.

Party Allegiance.

President Grant, during the summer and
fall after his Inauguration, made treaty
with the acting president of the Republic
OF San Domingo, for the annexation of that
territory to the United States. The steps in
this treaty were taken with secrecy. and
while hints of what was going on got abroad
the public really knew nothing of it. Ate,
1t was negotiated some months after
Senator Sumner was informed of it, and
when 1t was sent into the Senate the public
generally became aware Of its terms. The
President used his personal and political
influence to secure its ratification, but the
treaty failed of securing a two-thirds vote ::
in fact, the vote on the ratification was 25
yeas to 25 nays At that time there were
more than sixty Republican Senators, more
than half of whom voted against the treaty.
or failed to vote. 1t occurred to nobody then
that opposition to the treaty was anti-Re-
publican.
President Grant was not content to let
the matter rest there. In his annual mes
cage few weeks ago, he again urges the
annexation of San Domingo. Senator Sum
ner has again opposed the measure. Strange
as it may seem, as soon as be does this. he
is charged with getting outside Of the Re
publican party. A Grant newspaper saws
There is no place for Mr. Sumner out
side Of the Republican party unless be
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1871-01-04

wishes to stand alone-a leader without
follower, general without command.
Again the same paper declares:
{" Mr.. Sumner made a great and grave
mistake in assuming position of hostility
to the President in his San Domingo speech
but his blunder will be still greater. and II
it's consequences to himself more ruinous, Il
he shall persevero in that hostility
The same paper further adds:
And what significance does this revolt
of Mr.. Sumner possess a.? None whatever,
except that Mr.. Sumner threatens not to
give that hearty support to the Republican
/ party which ali his friends expect from him.
and hopes that possibly out of the chaos and
the disintegration of to-day will come IN
some strange and unaccountable way Sum
ner party in 1872, with a new device upon
! it's banner. The present way of the great
Massachusetts, Senator is a dark way, and
the light of even his great intellect cannot
make it clear.
And again, writing Of both Schurz and
Sumner, it says
- But in the whole movement two things
are clear, that the rebellious leaders must
either return to their alleI iance, or that 1t
is the duty of a Republican Senate to place
them in a position where their treason will
be harmless. ~
If these were the declarations OF only one
newspa per, they would be Of small account,
but they are evidently the echo of what Is
said by many Republican Senators, and by
frequentcrs of the White House. The paper
from which we have copied, succinctly states
the political gospel which these extracts
teach, in the following sentence from the
same editorial
The allegiance Of The Republican party, The
feaHy Of The Republican leaders, IS The right
Of President Grant.
There our readers have the whole of it
" Allegiance, - fealty 80 President Grants
opinions or wishes are to be absolute law to
the Republican party. Those who inquire
of the powers that be before they have
opinions, or having dare express them, will
doubtless be glad to see the law that governs
them so tersely written out. We had hith-
erto supposed that President Grant owed
some allegiance and iealty to the Republican
party which had made him President. but
this newspaper writer has discovered that
when the party elected Gen. Grant Presi-
dent they made him the unquestioned and
absolute dictator OF party opinions and party
policy. Men who agree with Grant are
Republicans men who don't agree with
him are rebellious, are in " revolt are
" outside the Republican party" are guilty
Of E" treason.
The thinking men Of the Republican par
ty cannot too earnestly condemn such mis-
chieyous propositions as these, propositions
fatal alike to all honesty in politics and in
government. Every Republican, whether
Senator or private individual, when satisfied
that the President is wrong. owes it both to
the party and to the country to say 50 and
if the President persists in pressing unwise
measures, those measures should be resisted
by every Republican who thinks them IN
wise. Allegiance to party is higher than
allegiance to a president, allegiance to coun-
try is higher than allegiance to party, and
allegiance to justice and truth is highest of
All
