not hard money party to-day? What is
there in our recent record to controvert
that ideai There is not a Democrat il
the land who will oppose a resumption OF
specie payment, when it can be brought
about without paralyzing industries and
lmproverishing and distressing the people
But we do not make such an idol of me-
tallic coin as to be willing to breed com
munistic revolts and FIJI our land with
paupers to force resumption We fully
realize that with ten thousand millions of
Indebtedness, public and private, and the
vast volume of business represented by
it, that speedy resumption is absolutely
impossible without bringing immense dis
tress and disaster to every class of our
population except the bondholder and
money changer. The Congressional
pledge of resumption in 1879 hangs like
a pail over the business Of the country.
Prudent men have been following the ex-
ample of contraction set by the Govern
ment. They have been drawing means
out of active business and securing it in
real property; they are closing up their
manufactures; they refuse to go into new
enterprises, and the result is that the pan
ic of 1874, which should Only have had
duration, has settled down in
to a season of business prostration, which
will continue until the policy of the Gov
ernnent is changed; the continued tam
pering with the currency checked, and
the active men ofthe country can have
faith to resume operations without fear
of being overtaken by ruin through Gov>
eminent interference. If resumption is
reached in 1879, steady contraction and
depreciation in values must continue,
and what sane man will invest his means
in business under such circumstances?
Let US reach specie payment as speedily
as possible, bat let the laws of business
and circumstances under which we are
placed govern the matter, and not the
special interest of the banker and bond
holder

THE NEWTON CASE.
New Move in Contemplation.


The recent decision of the Supreme Court,
in he case of the State vs. Alex. Newton, con-
weed of the murder of Bourdonnay, it was
supposed, fixed the fate of Newton, as the
deciion confirmed the judgment of the lower
cour, which sentenced Newton to death, but
there is a new move for his salvation in con-
TEMPTATION, and it will, no doubt, be made.
At he regular meeting of the Legislature q
bill chnging the venue in the case was in
trodued into and passed the House and was
sent tCthe Senate. The Senate as far as the
recordsshow, did not reach it. During the
extra session the Senate took up and passed
the bill l. was sent to the House, but was
not reaoed. After the adjournment of the
Legislature the friends of the bill commended
that the assage through the Senate was the
final passage Of the bill Clerk Trezevant, of
the Hous, however, refused to sign it, on the
ground TIT it came up in the S-nate at the
extra sesson as new bill, and should have
been passi during the same session by the
House, this position he was maintained
by write opinion of the Attorney General.
1t IS no proposed to show that the bill
passed the enate at the regular session; and
if this canot be satisfactorily proven, it is
proposed t. show that the passage by the
Senate at ,e extra session was the final
passage; andf this fails, an effort will be made
to show thatt passed the House at the extra
session, and vas held by the Committee on
Enrolment.
