NOT NOW A PARTY QUESTION.

We look upon the financial question,
which is now being considered by congress
and agitating the whole country, as the
most important issue presented TO the
American people since the close of the re-
belion. 1t is question which must he
met and decided. Now it is not a political
or party question, but il soon may be. We
say ii is not now party question, because
all parties went into the last presidential
campaign substantially upon the same
pledge The liberal republican convention
assembled first. and distinctly declared
''that the public credit must he sacredly
maintalnec,' and that they denounced
reputation in every form and guise.'
Further, that "a speedy return to specie
payment is demanded alike by the highest
considerations of commercial morality
''and honest government This declara-
ton OF principles was unanimously adopt
ed, as it was, also, subsequently by the
democratic national convention. The re-
publican national convention unanimously
subscribed TO the same doctrine, although
not in the same language They say ave
"denounce reputation of the public debt
lin any form or disguise as a national
"crimc and confidently expect
"that our excellent national currency will
'be perfected by a speedy resumption of
specie payments AT that time it was
not and could not be party or political
question, because all parties were in sub.
stantlal harmony upon this one question.
We would not have dared entered upon
that campaign with the words ''repudia-
tion," Initiation" postponement of specie
payments upon our banners We could
not have succeeded upon any such issue.
Supposng, for moment, we had advo-
Gated imitation and the payment of our
bonded debt in greenbacks, what would
have been the result in New England, New
York. New Jersey and Pennsylvania
Who would have been president of the
United States to-day? Certainly not Gen
cral Grant We pledged ourselves to a
speedy return to specie payments and the
redemption of our nat 'onal bonds in gold.
and this, with other issues, gave us success.
Without these pledges, we should have met
with defeat. 1t is not now Il party ques-
ton, because members of both parties, in
congress, are found voting on either side
OF the question redecmng their sol
cmn pledges, others dishonoring them.
Both are equally responsible, and the coun-
try will hold them to strict account for
their action

WHO Is RESPONSunLE

III is now some nine years since the last
rebel laid down his arms and surrendered.
1t is, at least, four years since ''rcconstruc-
ton was an accomplished fact, unless we
except the case of Louisiana, which seems
to be a ball for all sides to play with.
Political disabilities have been removed
from most OF the whilom rebels. Many a
rebel general and colonel, and, even, the
Vice President of the Confederate States
of America" are in either branch of the
Congress Of the United States. We can
well understand why these things should
be so. We can understand why "bye-goncs
should he bye-gones If we are to be an
united, harmonious people, if this is to be
M Union" in fact as well as name then
the south must be admitted to the councils
of the nation on terms of equality. We
can understand all this, and perhaps, par
ticlpate in the real christian feeling of for
getting and forgiving. Whether, however,
we actually forget and forgive, the time
has come when we must condone. But

given parties whose political record ought
always TO stand in Judgment against them.
We refer to those prominent leaders at the
north, who sustained by every means ia
their power the rebellion, who gave them
aid, comfort and sympathy and who ranged
themselves against the cause of the Union
They have not the excuse of " going
with their state" of standing with their
own people. They snned against light.
Such man, however, in the "whirligig of
politics" is about to he elected to the
United States Senate, in the stead of a gal-
liant union soldier. Who is responsible for
this result? Who is responsible for the
fact that the legislature of Connecticut is
SO constituted that w. w. Eaton, of Hart
ford, can be chosen to the Senate instead
of honest Joe Hawley? Some one is re-
sponslble, and the responsibility rests with
the republican party. Think of w. w.
Eaton taking his place in the Senate of the
United States in 1875, and then turn back
fourteen years and look at q scene in Say
brook, Connecticut. 1t was in August,
1861, when, what the New York World of
that day describes as :" a number of prom
inent secessionlsts of the state" had called
peace meeting, at which a secession flag
was to be raised, and this same Eaton was
to make the principal speech. The tables,
however, were turned, the stars and stripes

A sALERATus SPRING IN SARATOGA COUNTY.
A short time since mineral spring
burst out of the ground at the foot of n
high sand bank one mile east of Quaker
Springs, Saratoga, that astonishcd every
body in that vicinity on account of its
medicinal properties. The farm on winch
1t is located belongs to John Wilcox. Jr.
1t was known as long ago as when DR..
Dean was alive that there was mineral
water there, and he frequently used it, but
of late it has broken out IN different
place, and great deal stronger. 1t is very
highly impregnated with iron and sulphur.
Some say it leaves a taste in their mouth

We have said elsewhere, that although
the financial question was not now party
or political question, it would soon be. The
people of the United States will not long
brook an irredecmable, constantly increas-
ing currency, or complete or partial re-
pudiation of our promises to pay sin any
form or disguise. Mr.. Phelps of New
Jcrsey-in a speech, which DR.. Bacon
characterizes as "the best speech of the
session on the great question" Of the SEES
sion-makes distinction between money
and currency. There may or may not be
such distinction. The bills OF the banks
of Vermont, prior to 1861, were both cur
rcncy and money; they were currency,
because they were used as such, and they
were money because they represented real
money which could, at any time, be ex-
changed for them. The issues of the wild
cat banks, which flourished in the west
prior to 1887, were currency, not money
they were currency, because used as such
and not money, because they did not rep
resent money, and it could not be obtained
therefor For similar reason, treasury
notes are currency, not money. The poo
pie want money and will have money. In
fation will not make our currency money
reputation of our government bonds,
or the payment thereof in treasury notes
will not give lis money. A gradual rcluc
ton of the amount of treasury notes anda
gradual return to specie payments, makes
our currency partake more and more of the
nature of money, until it will finally be-
come money. There will he, unless this
matter is speedily settled, an issue presented
to the American people upon which they
will be forced to act 1t may or may not
come in the manner suggested by DIR.
Bacon, but it will surely come. Other
questions may be regarded as practically
settled, but this great question of initiation,
reputation and national dishonor looms up
in the future, in even greater proportions
than at present. 1t will be, too, one of the
great questions, if not the great question,
of the century. We have no fear as to
where Vermont will be found in that hour.
She has paid her war debt honorably,
promptly, before it was due. She will
never consent to give her voice to repudi-
alton and national dishonor. The entire
north and east will stand with her. We
believe the sober second thought of the
west will be the same. She cannot, yet,
have forgotten the disaster and ruin caused
by a superabundance of currency prior to
1887. The memory of this alone ought to
be sufficient. The final result is certain,
but we dread to consider the dangers to our
honor and credit in the interim.

The NIOiety system.

Mr. Fernando Wood has prepared with
very considerable care bill utterly abolish
ing the moiety system and providing new
regulations for the seizure of books and
papers, which was introduced into the
House on Monday and referred to the ways
and means committee. 1t will probably
be reported back next week and passed as
a substitute for the bill relating exclusively
TO moieties, already reported TO the House.
Mr. Woods bill is prepared more in ae-
cordance with the views submitted by the
New York merchants ON these questions
through the chamber OF commerce. 1t
does away with all rewards or hope of re-
wards in customs cases, provides for the
adjustment Of disputed cases directly in
the courts, requires business books and
papers to be produced only by legal pro-
cess, prevents the seizure of private per-
sonal correspondence. and leaves the books
and papers open to use by their owners
while in the custody of the court, etc in
word, it covers anew in ono bill rene
dy for all of the various evil features that
have arisen under the present infamous
moiety system.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL IS, 1874


We published on the last day of 1878,
weather prognostics" for the months of
January, February and March of the
present year, prepared by Colouel William
r. Brown, former citizen of Rutland, at
the dates indicated, namely Those for
for january, August 3D. for February,
August 31st and for March, October 9TH.
We had no particular faith in the predic-
tions, publishing them as matter of curl
osty and out of respect to our former
townsman. 1t will be remembered that we
stated that it was claimed by the colonel
that he had method, unknown to Others,
bv which he made the calculations, and
that he had great faith therein we, there
fore, take pleasure in placing the result be.
fore our readers A correspondent writes
us, from North Pawlet, that he has kept
an accurate record of the weather during
these months, and that the prognostics
hit 1t II 10 per cent, or within % per
" cent of the government officials We
regard this as remarkable correspondence
between the predictions and the result,
more especially when we remember that
the calculations were made at distance Of
over two hundred miles from the place of
observation. We trust that we shall hear
from Colonel Brown again

HOW Initiation Works i'm Private.

Among those who have besiegcd Congress
in behalf of more paper money is Capt.
Ward of Detroit, large manufacturer.
Whether he was discouraged or not by the
slowness of the government 10 manufacture
currency, he determined according to the
ITf6une of that city, to show his faith in
the wisdom of multiplying paper evidences
Of debt and ''playlng" it is money, by is
suing 800, 900 of scrip wherewth he paid
the workingmen at his rolling mills. They
took the paper willingly enough probably
having complete faith in their employer,
but the farmers failed to appreciate the
valne of Capt. Wards paper. They either
refused to take it at all, or insisted on
shave that was ruinous to the holders.
Very soon the shinplasters passed out of
circulation, and were bought up in Detroit
at considerable discount. The trade of
Wyandotte, where the mills are located,
has suffered, because many of the farmers
who usually do business there have gone
elsewhere. This is very neat little ex-
pertinent, so far as it goes, to show the es-
sentially deterioratlng character of superb
bundant paper money, and its disastrous
effects wherever 1t reaches.

" Yes" The prisoners were returned to

the key was turned upon her. She burst
into tears, and seemed to realize that there

regarded as still binding
AN IMPORTANT WITNESS WANTED.
The prisoners were TO have been ar
raigncd at the Tombs for examination, but
the testimony OF the woman who attended
the funeral was deemed of sufficient i'm
portance to have the case postponed until
she can be subpGnaed. Uhling maintains
silence still as far as any detailed confess
sion is concerned. He merely says, "You
have the coffin and the woman now what
are you going to do about ii ?" Technical
~ their offence is only the misdemeanor of
a conspiracy to defraud As none of
Uhling's oaths or aflidavits were taken be-
fore Judicial officer, they cannot be made
to constitute perjury. Still it is commen-
tary on the administration of the laws re-
lating to proof of death that the word of a
man calling himself Dr. Uhling, and whose
name is not in the Medical Register, should
have suiliced to obtain a burial permit.
