senate Plan for Re,uvn,,,,


The Republican Senators have waived
all individual opinions, and have agreed
to propose in the Senate, and pass, bill
relating to the finances which shall en-
body the following general provisions
!. That specie-payments be resumed
Jan. l, Is79.-four years hence.
2. Free banking, abolishing the existing
monopoly.
8. The retirement of fractional currep-
ey, and substitution therefor of small sill
yer coinage.
1. A retirement of greenbscks- in pro-
portion Of 30 per cent. of the additional
National Bank currency as issued, until
the aggregate Is reduced to $500, ,0O0, GOO
of greenbacks.
g.. The Secretary of the Treasury 20 use
surplus specie In the Treasury or to sell
bonds To reduce the Treasury notes down
10 100000 600.
This bill is commendable for several
reasons, at least, and first, because it is
an afirmance of a clear and distinct poll
cy on the part of the Republican party.
1t is commendable, also, because il is a
step in the right direction. II makes
direct issue against imitation, and is in ia.
vOr of return to the true basis of real
money. twill be accepted as healthy
improvement of the tone and spirit of
Congress since the last session. II mskes
the wisdom Of the Executive veto at the
last session apparent II not only arrest.
ed legislation that was vicious in itself
but gave time for a careful and deliberate
investigation of affairs and of the rene.
dies needed TO meet existing eviIs.

KATIE KNe.-Another materiallzed
spirit has come to grief. The confession
of this little trickster and swindle, has
brought woe upon the heads of imposters
and knocked the underpinning from un-
der that sham of spiritualists, materializa-
tion of the spirit. and brings the whole
shallow legerdemain of the mediums
down with ii. 1t is passing strange that
such sham could have been carried on
SO long, and that not few of intelligent
and well balanced individuals, such, for
instance, as Robert Dale Owen, should
have been carried away by it. This Katie
King, by her own confession, appears TO
haYe been only very shallow swindIer,
who practiced the panel game upon her
dupes. We rather commiserate our
friend-the Judge-in view of the situa-
ton in which this untimely revelation has
placed him.

THE NEW JUDGE.-The bill that has
pissed the Legislature, authorizing an
other Common Pleas Judge for this judi
cial district, provides for an election on
the 18th of january. The District Com
mittee who have charge of the matter OF
calling convention for putting some
suitable person in nomination for the
place, were TO meet on Thursday of this
week, for deciding upon the time and
place. Thus far, but little has been said
about candidates, as the people do not,
since The Chaffee campaign, evince a
very deep interest in the matter A ma
jority of them would much prefer that
the bar would make its own selection,
and save them from the thought and
care of that task. The most that we have
heard about candidates here, was some
month or two ago, when there seemed 10
be strong prospect. from the precarious
stare of Judge Canfeld's health, of a va
cancy. Tie discussions then, with both
bar and lRity. tended toward our towns
man, Hon. LIS. SHERMAN. Mr.. S. was
considered, by his eminent attainmenis,
very suitable man for the place, and no
objection was raised-personal or politi-
cal. Beside Mr.. ShermaBts fitness, he is,
we believe, the acknowledged leader of
the bar in age, service and Judicial abili-
tY. There Is. also, tacit, recognized line
of promotion and preftrment, which is
cheerfully yielded to those in the forward
ranks-whO have grown gray in the pro-
fession. We have heard the name of
younger member mentioned in connec-
tlon with this place-Mr Woodbury.
whose position is most honorable one
but we suppose, if Mr.. Sherman is will
ing TO accept the Office, hardly member
will be found 10 withhold his cheerful
approval and support
