Tho Rev. Henry Ward Boeohor has hitherto
preserved an unbroksn silence with regard to tho
chargeB ropeatodso offonsivoly by the Woodruff
Clanin crowd, of Now York, but which originated
in quarter moro respectable. In tho single al
fusion which Mr. Deeoher has mado In rof-
eronce to them, he said that he knew
no other wny Of treating these women and
their attacks than az he would treat scullion
who should throw dirty water On him--he would
cross to the other aido Of the street and pass
on. But ho eooms to have finally decided to
meet them. Tho Doacons Of Plymouth Church
held Meeting last Friday evening, at Mr.
Deechora request, it is said, and determined to
Investigate the matter. Tho immediate occasion
OF this action is tho publication, tho other day,
Of tho singular articles Of agreement botweon
Mt Beochor, Mr.. Bowen, and Mr. Tilton.

: Tho percentage Of deaths to population WAS
iargor in Arizona than in any othcr section, tho
ratio being 2.oi, oausod doubtless by tho vista
tion Of tho smallpox. In other localities. whore

1850. while tho rulc was dearoaao> In Illinois,

this stato, %, 115 wore native born, 828 Of whom
wero colorod, and 5,508 wore OF foreign

Among the noticeable ourionities Of tho NOR

GOLD AND 4HEENBACKH.

Tho Chicago Times presents for our consider
alton certain conundrums regarding the relative
va1uo Of gold and groonbacka. Wethinkthey can
all bo answered by assuming that gold does not
perceptibly change in value, while greonbacks
fluctuate In yaluo perceptibly and suddenly;
that what is calod riso or fall Of tho gold pre-
MUM is really d fall or rise Of tho value Of
greenbacks. In order to get rid Of the Illusion
caused by the dancfng-iaok Of tho gold-room,
NO may best put ourselves In some place whcro
tho variations Of grcenbaoks aro quoted instead
Of tho supposed variations Of gold, as In Cali
fornia or CANADA. Hcre groonbacka arc quoted
daily at 81, 81, 80, or whatever may be thoir ao-
tual worth. From this standpoint ITO can an-
sUer tho principal conundr1m OF tho Times.
which ts stated in this way: -
Thero is good to Aupposo that tho prchas.
Ing powor OF paper doar hns changed materially
during the past three months. but tho premium
gold has changed very materially. IT, then, tho pro-
um measured tho depreciation Of paper tlrco months
ago, cannot measure tito depreciation now and pfce
uersa. Can The TRIBUNE decide infalbly ut which
Of tho two points Of time the proiun marked tho truo
deprecatton7 II It canno how can It possibly know
that tho premium marked tho depreciation at either
point Of tmo, or It any othor point Of time7
Tho answer Of the Californian or tho Canadian
would probably DO that no could buy more with
greenbacks when they wero At 85 than when they
wore ut 75. even though Ills purohaaes wero con-
fined wholly to tho United ethtea. In tho first
place ho could buy moro gold. In the next place
he could buy at Wholesale moro Of everything
TINT is paid for in gold OF its is,
everything that ia imported into the United States
from foreign countries. In tho noxt place ho could
buy at Wholesale more Of everything that Is OK
ported from tho Unitod statos to foreign eoun-
tries whose price is regulated BY tho foreign
market. In the next place ho could buy at whole
salo moro OF every kind Of American manufao-
tured goods whose raw materials arc either im-
ported or largely exported. And, finally, ho
could buy moro OF any commodity whatsoever il
tho supposed variation Of 10por cont was por-
manent for one year. The fact TINT NO do not
dotoct In retail transactions, and In short
porioda Of time, and In minute changes
In tho value Of greonbaoks, tho 'varia-
tions in price which accompany thom,
does not alter tho principle. Those variations
are, In fact, discounted in advance by dealers
and manufacturers, who insure themselves by
charging enough moro, through given period
Of timo, to cover tho risk, SO that their pricoH
apparently remain without substantial change.
And here Is where wo find the principal evil Of
an irredeemable paper currency. Capital is pro-
teoted by this speoios Of self-insuranco, while
labor ia not protected ut all unless by periodical
strikes,
We arc thus enabled to nnawer the Times
that at both the periods to which 1t rofers, gold
did mark the true depreciation OF tho currency.

three miles from Junction City, on

first, and his brother seeing the

assistance, but he was also rendered
powerless by the foul gas, and both
were found dead by Mrs. Arthur

we'll to look for them. She imme-

ance was obtained from town. The
bodies were found locked in each
others arms. They met their death
