tr has CAUSED no little surprise
among moneyed men throughout the
country, why at this season of the year
money should be so stringent. not
withstauding the large amounts that
have been paid out by the government
and corporations in the way of divi-
dends. The precise sums thus placed
in circulation. we have no definite
means of ascertaining, but we feel safe
in saying that they cannot fall lar short
ofslO0. 900, 900. Yet, from all parts
of the country comes up the cry OF the
scarcity of money; more scarce and
dearer than ever before, while bor-
rowers are forced to pay higher rates
than they did in December and we
have seen it stated that choice mer-
camille paper, which is usually in de-
mand by lenders, was placed as high
as II per cent discount 1t would, per-
haps, be difficult to account for this
anomalous state of offairs, as there are
many causes operating to produce it.
But it would not be hazarding too
much to say, that the policy of the Sec
rotary has more influence on the money
market than all other causes combined.
To say that his course causes distrust
aud alarm would be merely stating
what every man who deals in money is
aware of. By reducing the sales OF
gold and the purchases of bonds ono
half this month, he will only buy
go. 900. 900 worth of bonds and restrict
his sales to a corresponding degree.
This uncertainty Of action, thus Gre
ates distrust and consequently en-
barrassment in the money market If
his disbursements were regular and at
stated periods, no such stringency
would be felt. The process Of calling
in the debt of the government is going
on, but without any influence on the
gold market, which has really advanced,
Notwithstanding the January interest
and the redemption of s20,OOO,OOO in
bonds. Now, if he continues this
course, the result will plainly be to
force gold outof the country, and the
fear of this tightens the grip on
money in the hands of the lenders.

the pending bill | understand that IIor-
ace Greeley has been already assaiied by
an impractible democrat as being friendly
to this bill, but no body has Hsped against
President Grant on this account Among
the anteccdents | deem it my duty to mem
ton the little capacity for industry of the
President, in protecting colored people, and
in assuring peace at the south. No body
can doubt that small portion of the effort
and earnest Will, even without the lobbying
so freely given to the San Domingo scheme,
would have avertcl those ku-klux put
RACES which we dcplore, so that there would
have been no prctence for further legisla-
ton by Congress; but he was disabled both
by character and the drawback of his own
conduct. After violating the constitution
and international law, to insult the black
republic, and setting an example of insub
ordination, ho was not in condition to
rebuke law breakers.
Second, passing now from antccedents,

two candidates, which, the subject Of your
next inquiry. fin any former particulars the
two are on an equality, yet in all substan-
tial respects the obvious advantage is with
Horace Greeley. Each were nominated by
reform conventions, one at Cincinnati, and
the other at Philadelphia, so that in this
respect they may seem to be on an equality,
bat it viii not fail to be observed that the
convention at Cincinnati was composed of
able and acknowledged Republicans, many
of whom have acted with the party from
its first formation, who without previous
organization, came together voluntarily for
the sake of reform and purity in the gov
ernmcnt, while on the other hand the con
vcntion at Philadelphia was composed of
delegates chosen large ly under the intiu-
sustain what is known as Grantism. See
ing the personal government and personal
pretcnsions of President Grant, involving
ncpotism, repayment Of gifts by official
patronage, neglect Of public duty,abscntce-
ism, military rule, disregard Of constitution
and law, with general unitness, and ndig-
nifty to the colorci race, all of which is 50
unrcpublican as to make his support i'm
possible by true Republicans. Therefore
the convention at Philadelphia, though call !
ing itself Republican, was less republican |
than that at Cincinnati. The two plat F.,
forms, so far as concerns especially the !
colorcd race, are alike in substance, but /
that in Cincinnati is expressed in terms
most worthy Of the equal rights it states
and claims. We recognize the equality of
all men before the law, and that it is the du-
ty of government in its dealing with the
people to mctc ont equal and eX:ct justice
to ail Of whatever nativity, race, color, or
persuasion, religions or political condition.
In other respects the platform Of Cincin-
natl is the most republican, inasmuch rs it
declares itclr against those uurcPubiican
abuses which have been nugScI by the
president into rcrnicioas activity.
