Grant Out for Free Banking.

When we stated last week that the New
York Times was ont in favor of free banks,
il occurred to us that General Grant was
probably the man whose views had suggested
the article in the Times. His Washington
organ removes all doubt upon the subject
Yesterdays Republican gives report of a
conversation between the President and re
porter. which discloses the formers financial
opinion in full These are important, not as
coming from Gen Grant. but as coming
from the President of the United States, and
as Indicating wha. the official action of the
Administration is likely to be in the present
monetary crisis.
The President pointed outa contrast be-
tween the last and former panics. The last
happened in time prosperity Our exports
since the fiscal year commenced have exceed
ed our imports Oar paper money is so good
that people boarded it. He sees sign of
specie payments coming near false pro
phet. as to this.] He really believed the ef-
feet was going to be beneficial in many ways
to the country at large, though the cost to
some individuals deserving of better fate
may be severe.
A return to a specie basis can never be
effected except by shrnkage of values.
This always works hard to a large class
Of people, who keep all they are worth in
margins. This shrinkage has now taken
place. Disasters to individuals have already
overtaken them, and it is to be sincerely
hoped the advantage may be retained in order
to reach solid financial basis. Already the
currency has appreciated to about par with
silver. The wonder is that silver is not now
pouring ont"

BOXING EARs.-"Children's ears should
never be boxed" so writes an eminent sur
geon in the Popular Science Monthly
Though the statement will doubtless be re-
ceived by many juvenile reader in the light
of self.cvident proposition, there may yet
remain few parents and rural pedasoguees
to whom the reasons for the abolition OF this
form ofrebuke may be of interest. We have
seen. writes Professor Hinton, that the pas
sage of the ear is closed by a thin membrane
especially adapted to be influenced by every
impulse of the ar, and with nothing but the
air to support it internally. What then,
can be more likely to injure this membrane
than sudden aud iorcble COMPRISING Oh
the air in front of it If any one designed
to break or oyerstretch the membrane, he
could scarcely devise more effective means
than TO bring the hand suddenly and forcl-
by down upon the passage OF the ear, .hus
driving the air violently before 1t, with no
possibility for its escape but oy the mem
brane giving way. So reasonable are these
conclusions that there was not needed even
scthe high authority of the writer for the sub
oucut statement that many children are mad
deaf by boxes on the ear. 1t Is unfortunate
however. that this and many other rcbukes
of the same order prccedc the reason and
hence safer general order may be
issued to the intent that no child should
ever receive any form of corporal punish

The Financial Remedy for the Farmer.

From the Augusta Constitutionalist.
While we write, we read in Northern
journals that, to obtain currency for cotton
sold in New York, the services of a broker
must be obtained and premium of four per
cent. must be paid. This is astounding.
The currency itself is only local promise
to pay. 1t possesses no. nature value Its
sole value is that part is made legal tender
by law carefully based upon war-making
power, and the remainder redeemable in an
irredceniable tender engraved note. And
yet, whithal, We have financial crash. The
Government " suspended" when it issued
greenbacks The National banks suspend
ed when they issued first notes redeemable
in all irredeemable currency; and they sus-
pend now for want of that currency: 1t is
agreed that the volume of currency is more
than double the commercial necessities Of
the country; but just at the time when it is
needed to move the crops, it unfortunately al.
ways happens that it is not available; and
when currency becomes scarce, prices go
down, and the farmer gets less for his crop,
than the price which the natural law Of sup
ply ana demand W0ulu warrant.
Now, it is just as we'll known in Liverpool
and New York that cotton growers have CIV
en- their obligations payable in November, to
carry on their planting operations, as it is
known by the farmers themselves, 1t is
equally we'll known that the cotton has to be
sent forward to meet these advances And
further, it is perfectly well known that the
banking capital of the South is utterly in
sufficient when compared with the two hun
dred and fifty millions requiree to pay for the
cotton crop. This is true picture of the
financial situation, of which cotton buyers
are thoroughly advised and of which they
calculate to take the advantage. Now, what
remedy has the cotton planter? There are
no banks to come to his relief. He is at the
mercy of the money lender, and the Manches-
ter spinner and the Lowell spinner, unless
some mode of relief can be devised? Yes:
Get out of debt-keep out of debt. This is
the remedy, and the only one which can be
devised in the present condition Of the
South.
The Farmer out of debt can hold or sell.
The farmer to be out of debt must grow his
own corn and meat. The farmer out OF debt
with corn and meat, can hold his cotton q
much longer period than the spinner can af'
ford to let his machine lie idle
Here is good work for the Oranges. 1t is
idle to talk about affecting an organization
which will possess money power adequate
to the purchase or control Of cotton crop
of the value of TWO or three hundred mil
lions
But that combination, which can induce
cotton planters to KEEP OUT OF DEBT, will
most effectually do that which no artificial
moneyed corporation could ever effect.
Let the Oranges adopt as their notices:
Buy for Cash.
Buy nothing that can be raised on tte plan

DEATH VALLEY.-The Beaver (Utah)
Enterprise has the following respecting a
recent visit to this noted valley:
The Valley of Death-a spot almost at
terrible as the prophets Valley of Dry Bones
lies Just north of the old Mormon road so
California, a region thirty miles long be
thirty broad, and surrounded, except at
two points, by inaccessible mountains. 1t is
totally devoid of water and vegetation, and
the shadow of bird or wild beast never
darkens its white, glaring sands. The Kan
sas Pacific Railroad engineers discovered it,
and also some papers, which showed the fate
of the last Montgomery train, which came
South from Salt Lake in 1850, guided by a
Mormon. When near Death Valley, some
came to the conclusion that the Mormon
knew nothing about the country; so they ap.
pointed one of their number leader, and
broke off from the party The leader turn
cd due West; so, with the people and wag-
ons and Gocks, he travelled three days, and
then descended into the broad valley, whose
treacherous mirage promised water They
reached the centre, but only the white sand,
bounded by scorching peaks, met their gaze.
Around the valley they wandered, and one
by one the men died, and the painting Aocks
stretched themselves in death under the hot
sun Then the children. crying for water,
died at their mothers breast. and with swol-
len tongues and burning vitals, the helpless
mothers followed. Wagon after wagon
was abandoned, and strong men tottered and
died. After a weeks wandering, dozen
survivors found some water in the hollow of
rock in the mountain. 1t lasted
but short. time, when all died but two, who
escaped out of the valley, and followed the
trail of their former companions. Eighty
seven families, with hundreds of animals
periskad here; and now, after twenty.three
years, the wagons stand still complcte-the
iron works and tires are bright, and the
shrivelled skeletons lie side by side

JOHN II. LYNCH.-The trepanning
operation was performed yesterday
afternoon by Drs. Bergstein. Philson
and Deal upon the head OF John III.
Lynch, for the purpose of relieving
the compression Of the brain. The
operation did not occupy exceeding
twenty minutes time, and was very
successfully performed. 1t was
found necessary to remove the great
est portion of the frontal bone (Which
had been fractured by the bullet) TO
relieve the compression, and at the
same time to extract the ullet. The
bullet by which the deadly wound
was made was fOnnd to have lodged
in the brain just over the left eye.
Immediately after the operation Mr.:
Lynch'S consciousness improved, and
he expressed himself as feeling bet
ter. The bullet had entered the OPP
posite side of the head. but was split,
a portion of it lodging between the
two tables OF the skull. The first
portion Of the bullet was extracted
on Monday last.

Persisted ON THE DEsERT.-A man
named Nat. rockingham left Gold
Mountain for Pine Grove on the 9th
of June last. He arrived at Silver
Peak on the 2Sth, and left there on
the evening of the 29th. The next
that was heard of him was through
the mail-riher between San Antonio
and Silver Peak. who reported having
seen the body of a mar at a point
three-fOurths Of q mile west of Vol
canO mountain and six miles west
from Silver Peak. Messrs. Harker,
Lyons and Plunkett repaired to the
spot and found the body. which they
identified as that of rockingham.
The remains were i'm a too advanced
stage Of decomposition to admit of
removal, SO the party buried them
where found. 1t is supposed that the
horse of deceased got away from him
and that in endeavoring to recover it
he lost his way and persisted from
thirst. Deceased was about &c years
of age; supposed to be a German by
birth; vas II of the locators of the
Mountain, and was a man of good
reputation.

ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.-Night be-
fore last a burglar was discovered in
an attempt to enter the house of $.
Goldstone. Mrs. Goldstone, who
happened to be awake at the time, got
a glimpse of the outline Of a mans
head through the Venetian blind of
the window. and Immediately aroused
her husband. Mr.. Goldstone at first
thought there was no one around, but
finally became convinced of his error.
Unfortunately he had no pistol in the
house. but waiting for a favorable
opportunity he threw the blinds open
quickly. The woull-be burglar, who
had his boots off and everything in
readiness to enter the house. de-
camped instanter. Mr.. GOldstOne got
a fair view of him, and was satisfied
that he would recognize him ii he
should meet him again. Coming
down town IL little later he espied his
man on Main street, and had him ar
rested. He will have a hearing before
Judge Gates to-day. when we shall
probably learn more OF the affair.
