GFNEPAL BANKRUPTCY, RUIN, ETC.
The following proposition Of political faith
land action" was "proclaimcd' by the Ohio
Democracy at Columbus on the centennial an
niyersary Of the Battle of Bunker Hill:
That the contraction of the currency heretofore made
by the Republican party ard tho further contraction
proposed 10y il with view TO the forced resumption of
spece payment has already brought disaster To o bust
ne. Of the country and threatens it with general bank
rupcy and ruin We demand that this policy DE aban-
doDed and that the volume Of currency be made and
kent nal 10 the wants Of trade leaving the restoration
of legal tenders 70 par with gold TO he brought about by
promoting the industries OF the people not by destroying
them.
The above proclamation assumes TO state
facts and to draw conclusions from them. Let
us see whether the propositions so confidently
laid down really are facts and whether the
conclusions are justified.
l. From December, 1867, until after the adj
iournment of Congress in March, 1875, a
period of years and 3 months, there is not
the shadow of foundation for the assertion
that the Republican or any other party con-
tracted the currency. To show how ground
less is the charge, we need only state that
since December, 1867, the legal tender cir
cnlati0n has been increased S21 900, 900
(the comparison being made with the amount
outstanding today, the fractional currency
has been increased over s10,00O.000, and the
National bank circulation, after doducting
S17 100000 for greenbacks on deposit at
Washington for retiring bank notes, has in
creased S33, 100000, being total increase of
s64 900, 600 from the close of the year 1867
to the time of the adoption of the foregoing
declaration of the Ohio Democracy.
III. Whatever contraction of the currency
took place previously to 1863 certainly has
had nothing to do with the present disasters
of the country. We have shown more than
once in these columns that, giving the name

SENT VENT IN POLITICS.

The Richmond Knights Templar, whose visit
to Boston was prolonged by the cordially Of
their hosts until long after the excitement of
the celebration which brought them there had
died away, have just gone home, after expert
encing on their way through this city the
same fraternal welcome which has greeted
them at all points OF their trip. They are re-
ported to be nearly "exhausted' with the
heartiness of their reception, and the diligent
reader of the newspapers imagines them
taking back to Virginia confused memory
of banquets and bouquets, Understandings
and parades, a medley of Federal and Con-
federate music, and the huzzas of n million
Yankees. Our Southern visitors have seen
something of the real spirit of the North at
last. They have had little to do with any
Federal officials, and they have not come in
contact with the class which supplies them
with deputy marshals, collectors, and carpet
bag Senators. But they have had an opp0r-
tunity TO know our best people and to see the
most attractive side of their characters and
they have learned the important truth
that neither the INSCRIPTIONS Southern
Office holders nor the politicians of the

eral. nor the President himself, nor even Tue
great mass of the Republican Representative
and Senators in Congress, spoke the senti-
ments of the Northern people, or comprehended
their lust and tender feeling toward their
estranged brethren. They found us ready 10
90 much more than half way to meet any
movement toward reconciliation, quick 10
trust. and prompt to put away all irritating
memories. In fact there was great deai vi
unexpected effusiveness on both sides IN inc
recent reunion, and much of the extraordinary
heartincss of the meeting was attributable 70
the fact that North and South were alike so
pleasantly surprised at each other.
This is case in which sentiment becomes
an important political agent. The era OF
good feeling will not last forever, but whiie
it endurcs it will effect some political changes
which must last. 1t has already put an END TO
the bayonet-polcy which threatened to become
the leading principle of the Republican orsahi-
cation. When Congress adjourned it was al
most an even chance that the reckless and
violent faction which so nearly secured the
massage of the Force bill would succeed in
dragging the rest of the party into the
dangerous and wicked course pursued by
Williams anu NUcIltlul III iIV"i''"''" "N
attempted by the President in Arkan-
sas. There were strong Indications that a
concerted effort would be made to fire the
Northern heart with stories of ku-klux
massacre and defiance Of the Civil Rights Dill,
and that many honest but timorous politicians
would be deluded by the rumors OF new
rebellion. Whatever effect this policy OF agl-
tation might have upon the elections, 1t could
not fail to work the greatest mischief to the
South, and it might have widened the breach
between the two sections of the country until
it became irreparablc.
But that danger is now over. The message
of good will and confidence which we have
sent to the South by our Masonic and military
visitors will be conned by or politicians at
home, and they will take the cue. Denunci-
alton of imaginary Ouirages will be dropped
from the proceedings of conventions, ana the
most sensational of party organs will be wary
hereafter of the romances of Charles Hays,
and the teeming budget of Detective Hester.
There is no reason now why Republicans and
Democrats should not concur in examining the
wrongs of the South without recrimnation or
rancor. and both parties vie with each other
in Just and generous policy.

SHALL WE IMPROtE THE LEGLSLATUREf
Voters would do well to scan closely the
records of the gentlemen who are already lay
ing their plans for return to Albany next
Winter. The first requisite for member of
the Legislature is honesty; the second ability
1t goes without saying that the first quality is
not so common in Albany as it might be, that
the second is nearly as rare, while a combina-
ton of the two makes legislative paragon.
Men who have come home with the slightest
faint of suspicion about them ought to be left
there If their questionable votes and actions
are claimed to be the result of errors in judg-
ment, that does not relieve their mistakes.
They are blunders which should pay the PEN
aties of crimes. The State cannot afford to
run any risks, and good legislative material is
always to he had in plenty.
The continued return to the capital of q
number Of members of both the present
Houses is simply disgrace to the districts
they represent, and to every man in them who
does not openly protest against it, Their assO-
Citations with the lobby are open and unblush-
ing. their votes are VIGOROUSLY corrupt and
their advocacy of measures or opposition to
them is shameless. They are covered all over
with suspicion, and their constituents, knowing
it, still send back term after term men who
grew passing rich on three hundred a year.
After honesty, ability. A State that has
grown to be an empire deserves the counsel
of legislators who are fit to make laws, and
who have some notion of the elementary con-
struction of the English language. The giants
of the present day at Albany would make pig
mics in thrd-rate Congress, while a ver-
batim report of the speeches of some of the
most celebrated of them would be the drear-
lest of forensic slop, in which all the pronouns
and verbs were in mortal combat. If you must
send man who will steal, send one who
will steal IN English grammar.

Misunderstanding from our stand
point there appears TO be disposition
on the part of some of the educational
institutions Of this State to appropriate
the funds of our Agricultural College,
thereby directing it from the ends for
which it was created, leaving farmers
without any means of acquiring Sci
entiiie knowledge of agriculture and
without an Institution of learning de-
voted to their interest therefore
ReSoIred, That it is the sense of this
Grange and Council that we ask our
Representatives and Senators In the
different houses OF the Legislature to
use all their influence to defeat any
measure that may tend TO the diversion
of the funds COR any part of them
from the object for which they were
intended.
Resoleed, That we ask the different
Ora nges and Councils throughout the
State, TO give this matter proper atten-
ton at their earliest convenience,
