with notes worth co cents in gold to tho

astl tho one-year, two-year, md two.ycnr-
coupon notes Of 1869 formed no part OF tho

so Is as ridiculous l!under as II would be to

old debt currency. In tho naturo Of things,

find that the legnl.ten1er circulation Of June

To this should be added the National Bank
circulation ut tl1at date, for the National Bank
notes arc to all intonts and purposes legnl-
tenders. That ia, they will pay any debt that
ercenbacks will. because they are rodecma-
blo in greenbncks on demand. Tho circula-
ton at tlis time was $13l,452, 138. Adding
this, VIC hare a total circulation, June 30,
1865, OF $5s7,6J1, CYL. But tho S..nark hero
does not mean 100 cents. It means II cents.
That is what the paper dollar of June
30, 1865, would buy,-just II cents
worth Of food, clothing, or anything else
offered for sale. 4 currency Is efficient, Of
course, in proportion to its purchasing power.

There il a play called "Solon shingle,"
which hos kept tho boards for many yoars,
mud has always been favorito with
the American people. in Which figures M
attorney, whose manly defense Of honesty
and virtue agninat corrupt court gains for
him the appollation OF "Tle Peoples Law

been recently enacsed in New York before
mn audience Of the people in the United
States, In Which m attorney has appeared in
d manly defense Of honesty and virtue
against the decision Of tho New York Court
of Appeals, in . manner which also en-
titles him to bs called "Ths peo-
plo's Lawyer" The letter which he
has written reviewing tho late opin-
ion OF tho Court Of Appeals releasing TWEED
stamps him "a q moral hero, and no act Of
his life, honorable and irreproachablo as that
life has been, will reflect moro honor upon
him than this emphatic and indignant protest
against tho suppression Of justice and
the conloning Of crime by technical qnibbles.
In this matter, his voice has been the con
popuG He has given utterance to q popular
sentiment long suppressed and patiently
waiting for expression, and he has givon ut-
terance to 1t with all the zeal md incisivenoss
which the people themselves would have
used had they risen in somo moment of de-
termination no longer to endure the abuse og
judicial power. In framing his terrible in
dictment against this Court, he seems to have
had In mind SuAxsrEARE'a proverb, "Plate
Sin with gold and the strong lance Of Justice
hurtiess breaks; arm it in rags and pigmy's
straw doth pierce it," The sentiment OF this
proyeEb, aud dau indication Of the possible pro-
tost which mny be made, appear In tho fol-
lowing vigorous arraignment Of tho Court for
It's careessness Of Justice and its partiality to
TWEED as against tho people Of the State:

EUREKA.s- FATE.



Several weeks ago, there assembled
at a residence in this town three
ladies, known believers in the doctrine
of s%piritualism, the object of the meet
ing being to hold a seance and have
communication with friends from the
other world. II proved to be a lively
meeting, the spirits being in the best
of humor and anxious to impart to the
living their knowledge of what was to
transpire in the future and offer such
advice as they deemed expedient for
the benefit OF those whom they desired
to offer timely warning to. Among
other things told by the Rhostly
visitants was, that Eureka was to he
visited by a terrible disaster and the
town totally destroyed either by ali
earthquake, a fire or a flood, the latter
the most probable, and afterward de-
cided upon as being the proper thing.
The day on which such a terrible cal
amitv was to befall the town wa set
for July 9th, 1875, and this being the
day set apart, the onward course OF
Time which will soon number the day
among the past, will test the truth or
falsity of the warnings and prophecy
made to the mediums that composed
the circle. No particular time OF day
was set for the event to take place, but
the Episcopal Church was selected as
the spot where the work of destruction
was to begin, and the cloud burst to
take place. Great loss of life was pre-.
dicted. The AM of some of the vic
Tins were mentioned, but in consider
alton of the shock it would give their
nervous system, we withhold them.
The deluge of last year is to be moth
ing as compared with the one that is
to come to-day; and when the dark
clouds begin to gather over the
mountain tips south of town it will be
time to pack up and get to the hill
