PAYING OFF BONDS IN GKEENBACKs.-
The New York Journal Of Commerce has
always opposed this proposition upon
the ground that it was reputation. In
its issue of Saturday it says; THE idea
of paying off the bondholders in paper
currency is not Of late origin, nor was
il promulgated by any candidate os the
Democratic party. The Hon. Thaddeus
Stevens of Pennsylvania, Republican
member Of Congress in his day, tras the
frst atterer Of h,s heresy. and the first
public denunciation of the heresy was
made in the Journal Of Commerce in re-
ply to proposition Of Stevens, openly
uttered IN a speech before the House of
Representatives.
The Republican party may be credited
with the authorship of this special here.
sy; but it cannot be charged, as party
with any purpose to favor it,
The Democratic party in certain States
has followed the bad precedent, but it i,
Least OF either likely TO give it nationa
Importance as party watchword: anc
we say this without regard to the result
OF any OF the near elections. All of it,
olu lraultlons, SO strong with its mos,
earnest men, class it with advocates Of
the Sub-Treasury and hard money.
The danger will not come from party
crles nor from popular elections. If i
ever grows more menacing, as some da,
1t will, We fear, the moving cause will b,
general indifference to the sacred obi
cations OF the country, born of persona
suffering from hard times and the incon
veniences OF want. The best pl leyentiy,
ID the cultivation of a nicer sense of ner
sonal and public honor, SO that men !,
all places and at all times may come n,
to the Scripture standard of true noble
ness, as exemphfied in one who ba
sworn to his own hurt, but will not brea
his promise"

ONO. Every Democrat must fee!
an unusual anxiety to hear Of the
election of Allen in Ohio. Our hopes
of success there have been somewhat
shaken by the vaunted boasts of the
Radicals, Notwithstanding the fact
that during all last year they claimed
aim ost every State where elections
were held up to the very day on which
the result was to be determined, and
yet they were beaten almost every
where. Even in Main where they were
so nearly defeated, Aliens majority las t
wear in a light vote, was only 800; but
we hoped it would be so, 900 this year
The daily gazette., 1875-10-11

''The Gazette deals with those offend
ers, Messrs. McIntire and Farrell, in a
spirit of moderation that is quite beau
tiful to behold. 1t cannot believe that
they mean to do anything bad, but feels
sure that they will see the error of their
ways and come into the fold with Messrs.
Paynter and Hayes like nice little Dem
ocratic lambs. The Gasette overlooks the
vital point in the case-that this is only
tit for tat. The Fourth Ward members
bolted the caucus when McIntire was
nominated; now McIntire and Farrell
are but following that example" "-Com-
mercidl.
The Commercial is entirely wrong. Mr..
Mclntire declined the caucus nomina-
tion before q vote was taken, and hence
"Messrs. Paynter and Hayes" could not
have "bolted." There has been no eau.
Gus subsequent, and hence Messrs. Nc
lntire and Farrell cannot be accused O.
following that example" We hop,
they will yet vote with the nino othe
Democrats.

A Brutal FIaAT.-Two young men of
Boston, we learn from telegram, on
Friday went out to the woods to settle
their difference by fight. They were
accompanied by their friends. The fight
lasted two hours and SIS minutes, in
which time ~ rounds took place. One
of the men named Ryan died on Satur-
day, and the other, who was slightly in
jured, fed from tho city. And this took
place near Boston. Had it occurred near
Baltimore or Richmond what a noise the
Boston press would have raised over the
depraved and wretched condition to
which the population of those cities had
fallen. And well they might have done
so. But the crowd of roughs were from
Boston. They stood and witnessed a
murder. They saw the brave and hero
ic soul of Ryan beaten out of him TO
crafty morbid desire. The seconds
and every man Of that crowd should be
arrested and punished. If the fight had
occurred in little Delaware they would
not be permitted to remain within her
borders unmolested--the law would
reach and punish them as we'll as the
seconds and principals.

The following dispatches tell well in favor Of Delegate McCormiciz-:
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-An appropria- ton of Sl5,000 was passed by the House yesterday for the construction of military roads in Arizona. The bill introduced by Delegate Mccormick asked for an appro- priation of $50 0,000, but the committee 7eut down the amount one-haH.
 The roads to be constructed are from Fort Whipple to Camp Mcdowell with a branch to Camp Verde another one from Fort Whipple to Skull valley direct. The road from old Camp Goodwin to Camp Apache will be repaired when needed.
 WASHINGTorJ, Jan. 22.-Delegate McCor- mick, of Arizona. and Delegate Elkins of New Mexico, are urging the application for an appropriation to extend the Govern ment telegraph from Tucson to Santa Fe. Only ninety thousand dollars is required. and the work is one that should be done forthwith.
 Thus far this session, AriZona's Delegate has been very successful, and he has sev- eral measures pending, of much value to the whole Territory, which he has hopes of getting enacted before March.4.
