The Lagie of Figures.

On former occasion Speaker Blaine took
Benjamin F. Butler IN hand and demolished
him. The other day another Maine Congress
man, Mr.. Burlegh, paid his compliments to In
hation Butler, and made the financial balloon
list, from the Essex district of Massachusetts,,
squrm like freshly landed eel. Mr. Bur
leigh had asked the question of Butler how
much more purchasing power there was in our
currency to day than before the issue of the
$26 0000 600 from the reserve. Butler, however,
would not face the gu ston fairly, bu5 after
lodging replied '.about one forty-second part of
Que per cent" To this the Maine Congress
man said: 'sIn the panic, with the balance of
trade in our favor, with gold being exported,
the Secretary of the Treasury thought tit to is
sue S26,000000 in amount of greenbacks which
were thenat 107. There were more 4han seven
hundred millions in the market He reduced
the value of these greenbacks five per
cent. at once, which was S35. 100000, and sun
the Government in debt $26 100000 in gold "a nd
that is the way we stand to-day if you take ac
count of stock as you would do in your own
private business" The logic and arithmetic
were both too much for Butler ever, land he was
forced to acknowledge that the nearer our cur
rency is to the gold value the more desirable it
is. He had never looked at it from this stand
point, but did not dispute the correctness of
Mr. Burle!gh's figures that there had been a
loss of $6l, 100000 by the issue of the reserve.

the department Is reduced by the bill about

MIR. MURTAGH AND THE DISTRICT INvEsTI-
CATION.
Mr.. Murtagh of the National Republican pub
fishes card this morning in regard to the con-
tract which he procured, which was brought
out in the evidence yesterday. He says:-
All we have to say is that we have not made
a single dollar = any contract Under the board,
and have no interest whatever in any contract
now pending. We do not say this because we
deem that there is any improperly whatever in
having contract, but in order to crafty the
extreme anxiety which some people seem to en-
tertan in regard to our private affairs. The
only regret we have in the whole matter is that
we were not fortunate enough to have had a
