The Secretary of the Treasury Bull
ing the Price of Gold!
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19-The Seer etary
of the Treasury this morning stated ne
would pay all bills against the Government
and thus put in circul ton as much curren-
cy as possible, as he had an abundance OF
currency to pay all claims without drawing
on the forty-four million reserve. His order
to Assistant Treasurer HiIlhouse yesterday
was not to revoke the sale of gold, but he
simply directed the Assistant Treasurer not
to accept any below the market price. AS
the PROPOSALS were for such small amount
and the price below the market, the Assis-
tant Treasurer declined to accept any.
Under Consideration.
In view of numerous kilograms concern
ing the condition Of monetary affairs, many
inquiries were made of the Secretary OF the

what extent he would furnish relief. His
reply was he had no. yet decided what he
would do, thus implying that he has sub
jsct under consideration.

SENATOR BROwNLOw.

We stated two or three weeks ago that IN
the event the Republicans obtained q ma
iority in the next General Assembly, IL was
understood Senator Brownlow, whose term
expires March 4, 1875, would be candl-
date for reelection. It appears our lnfor-
nation was correct, the Nashville Bulletin,
the central organ of the party, having sub
sequently noninated him for the position.
The hope of carrying either branch OF the
Legisla ure is, perhaps, forlorn one, put
there is no doubt most desperate effort
will be made to do it. The programme Is
mapped out, and the pipe-layers are already
at work. Even the Knoxville Chronacte,
which is generally in the rearwsrd OF the
fashion, suggests that it is time the faithful
sin the various counties of the State were
thinking of suitable representatives.

outside of small decline in wheat and
bacon from local causes, nothing unusual is
noticeable. In monetary circles and among
banks and brokers everything Is calm and
confident. None of our banks have large
balances in New York, and what they have
are in old and solid corporated institutions,
therefore no fears are entertaining of losses.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.--Samuel Wilkeson,
Secretary of the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company, speaking of the suspension of
Jay Cooke & Co., its financial agents, said
he had no doubt of the future Of the road;
it would be constructed. The board of
directors acne repre- sents millions. The
company had not dollar of unpaid paper.
Up to the present time, not note CT theirs
was ever seen in Wall street. Not q bond
was hypothecsted by the company. Con-
sequently the company had no liabilities
hanging over it which might descend with
out warning. he believed the rosd would
lie hindered more by hostile Sioux than by
financial reYulsion. Two OF The members
Of the firm were directors of the Northern
Pacific Railroad Company, and the result

somewhat retarded. 1t is more than prob
able Congress will be asked to grant an
extension of two years to the company,

WHY WILL YE DIE, On YE OF LIT
TIE FAITH 2"-The following well-written
article is from the Davenport Democrat of
December 10, 1872, and is a powerful re
minder to the afflicted:
The most insidious, deadly and distress
ing malady attacking the human frame, is
pale consumption, stealing into the maid
en- bosom, flushing her cheek, blanching
her skin, and feeding like living worm of
death upon her vitals. A lover may
fondly gaze inte her eyes, the brilliant
sparkling is but forerunner of dissolG-
ton. A mother may listen to her mid
night breathing, it is but muffied drum
beating her death-knell. A father may
fondly try to save her, but too frequently
his efforts are in vain, her bridal bed is the
burial case; her bridegroom, death, the
silent consumer of her lungs is at work,
ana PHYSICIANS have no remedy, the phar-
macop9la no drug which can keep her from
her destiny. Sad as this view is, there is,
happily. bright side Providence has
garnered up in the storehouses of yepeta-
ton, sovereign balm in the iuices et
plants to arrest the fell destroyer. to heal
the eating ulcer, to renovate the failing
lung, to bring health, strength and vigoT
| to the wasted frame. The keen eve d
science has searched for it, the chemist
skill has seized upon it, the retort and
alembic have extracted it, and the remedy
is produced which will stay the progress O
the stealthy death fend. The result Q
this careful study of nature is Allen
Lung Balsam, this is the consumptlve'
hope, the declining patients cure. Thou
sands have entered upon trial of 1t witt
dlstrust and fear, who now live to recor'
Its snatchlng them from an early grave, am
who are ready to testify to its merits. lie
the consumptive take it and be benefited
Why will ye die, oh, ye of little faith ?
