tender is wholly beuefcept; no one can show
any disadvantage to any American Interest
The only qualification in our currency for evil
is the pollution of it by the national bank
notes. Substitute for the national bank note
the greenback, and have the volume fixed
and then let the boldest man who dare at
tempt to show how we could have any other
currency comparable to the legal tender in
its excellence, in our present condition. We
are safe In saying NO one can do this prob
ably no one would venture TO try the impos-
sible task. With fixed volume of legal
tenders there would always be, from years
end to years end, precisely the same amount
of money in the country, which can never be
the case with a currency at which all the
world is tugging, and upon which the for
eigner has a better claim than ourselves. and
which varies in volume necessarily. Every
country uses exclusively bullion in foreign
transactions no country uses bullion as the
domestic currency. Paper is inevitably the
exclusive domestic currency of every largely
debtor country. An increse of money has
always caused increased production, and
dearth of money hss ever patslyzed every
country where it exists. As the volume of
gold coin in the world decreased, civilization
sank into the dark ages; Z; as its volume in
creased, light, civilization apd production in
creased. Without legal enactment to that
effect in every country gold aud silver would
DO more be money than any other commodity;
as money it is a creature of law. IF all ma.
tions should make Bank of England notes the
sole money, then gold and silver, as such
would disappear, and paper be sole and I'm.
iversal legal tender. Gold and silver have
no intrinic value as money. It follows that
coin is at premium here solely and only be-
cause the foreigner wants it. Settle his claim
in any way; and gold instantly falls to par
For all domestic purposes there would be no
distinctions, they would pass promiscuously !;
for all domestic purposes it is now par. The
foreign capitalist has no right to complain, no
injustice has been done him. No citizen has
right to complain, for no Injustice has been

BosroN, August IA special dis
patch from Oak Bluffs to the .4duertiSer
says ''For some weeks there has been
a good deal of scandal in connection
with Mr. Vinson, Of Edgartown,. and
Elliot, of Worcester, who have occu
pied a cottage in company with two
married women belonging to Edgar
town. These men have been threat
ened with a coat of tar and feathers,
and Vinson, fearing trouble, left the
island SOME weeks ago. Last night, at
abont II o'clock, party of men went
to the cottage and called out Elliot.
After considerable struggle they forced
him into a wagon, in which was a pot
of tar and bag of feathers. Elliot
drew a revolver and fired twice, the
second shot killing Caleb Smith, broth
err of the two women. The report of
the pistol frightened the horse, which
ran away and threw the whole party
from the wagon. Elliot escaped aud
surrendered himself to the authorize s.
Intense excitement prevails here in con y
sequence of the affair.

S&N0Sy SP1A4SHs ~,
Many rum DIS have been afloat for the
past week or two, concerning the DISPOSE

manner OF cOnjectlres and assertions
without any tangible result. We are
authorized to say that negotiations have
been concluded between Messrs. Moore &
Perry, Proprietors. and Col. A. W. Jones
Of New Jersey, whereby Orkney Springs
will pass into the hands Of comp.l y
with a cash capital of $250,000. The new
party viii take possession of the prop
erty on the first of May next and in
the mean time extensive improvements
will be made The Kew and elegant hotel
bdilding will be completed and furnished
throughout; lighted with gas, supplied
with a steam elevator, and other buildings
will be connected herewith by covered
bridges, and improved in their internal
arrangements. The grounds will be laid
erected, aud other Improvements made
with strict regard to the comfort. ac-
commodation and pleasure Of the guests.
These improvements will be made at
once to meet the requirements of the pres
ent !; but it is the intention, as soon as the
necessary arrangements can be made to
erect more extensive and elegant building,
with view to accommodate from two to
three thousand guests.
Ii capital and enterprise, aided by nat
ural advantages and fine collection of
mineral waters, will make Orkney Springs
the first watering place of the State, this

The Last Gift Concert POSTPONED.


The announcement 9th postponement
ofthe last gift concert ofthe Public Library
of Kentucky will not surprise the public.
In Governor Bramlett carl, published
below, he gives reasons for it which viii
be accepted without question by every
one. The management i'll this instances
consulting the interests of tieket-holders
and those designing to become tlcket-hoid-
ers, have not waited until the last day to
make this. announcement. but, just as
soon As they become satisfied Of the
necessity Of this postponement- have
promptly made the announcement. It is
unnecessary to review the causes which
have neeessitated this action, az they are
fully recited in Governors Bfamlett's
card. .fhe promptness ana frankness with
which the public have been maae aware
of the intention Of the manager will meet
with the hearty eommendation OF every
one and excite such q new interest and
confidence in the scheme and the ability
of themanager to perform what he prom
Uses. that there can be no doubt that on
the day specified the last concert viii be
a full one.
PosrPoNEMEsT LAST .coNcERT-A CARD
TO THE PUBLIC.
The announcement of the postpone
ment of the fifth and last CONCERT of the
Public Library of Kentucky to the 30th
November, am satisfied, will surprise few
and disappoint none of the friends and
patrons OF the enterprise. Indeed. any
other course would create dissatisfaction.
With precedent of u postponement OF
the four concerts which have already been
given, the public have very naturally and
reasonably expected that il this, by far
the largest scheme of the series and the
l,rgest ever offered to the world. the
same course would be followed, and there
are thousands all over the country who are
ony waiting for the setting Of a certain
fred day for the drawing before sending
in their orders. The sales of tickets to
this date have been highly satisfactory,
and large drawing might be had OH the
3lst July, but, feeling ass ured that short
postponement would enable us to close
out the remainder of the tickets and make
the drawing full one, we have adopted
the course which has evidently been an
ticipated, and which must eventuate most
satisfactorily for all.
Now that the day of the drawing is alb
solutely determined, there remains no
further occasion for delay, and | would
urge the friends of the enterprise who in
tend to purchase tickets, to send in theil
ORDERS as it Will tax my Office to its utmost
capacity to accomplish all that is to be
done in the short time which remains 1 OF
the sale OF tickets.

Now you see it and now you don't. Who
can form an idea to what extent our teel-
ings have been lacerated during the
present season? Last week we published
upon authority, that all Express trains
going East would stop at Woodstock and
all other stations when tagged. Now, we
understand, our enterprising agent can
wave his flag to his hearts content. but all
express trains pass without respecting his
signal of distress. 1t is inconvenient, but
we don't mind that so much as the idea
that we ore only second class station.
Even the circuses which. in years past
carried SO much money from this place.
now pass us during the night without even
favoring our juvenile population with a
sight of the elel liant. Somebody is re-
sponsible and no one knows to what an
extent an enraged community will go to
redress these heavy grievances.
