fhe Silver Coinage Scheme,

The Secretary of the Treasury has
been for some time purchasing silver
bars, with o view to their coinage as q
substitute for the fractional currency.
The Chicago Tribune thinks he is try.
ing to accomplish what is impossible at
this time, its idea being that the at
tempt to aoat a silver coinage alongside
of deprecated curreucy-the latter
being legal tender-must fail.
He is seeking to establish coin currency
in the face Of the fact that the greenbacks s
are TO remain in circulation. and have not
reached sufficiently advanced value. Our
silver coinage 10 worth about ninety five
cents on the dollar in gold. Our green
backs are al present worth ten or eleven
cents less than silver coin. 30 long as the
paper currency has less value than the
silver coinage, the latter will be seized and
boarded, or will be exported. as rapidly as
II is issued. II is an invariable rule that
where there are two forms of currency hav'
ing different values, that one having the
greater value will be boarded aud the
other kept in circulation. For this rule
there is no exception, whether the cur
rency be in the form Of metals or paper.
The inferior will exclude the superior. So
long as the value of the national currency
remains less than that Of silver coinage,
the latter, as rapidly as it oomes from the
mint, will be seized by those who will sell
it as bullion-pocketing the difference
Nor is il necessary to induce this that diff
~, haixu M
silver coinage should be ten cents on the
dollar. So long as the silver is worth one
or even o quarter per cent. more than the
paper, it will be boarded or be taken up
for exportation or sold as bullion.
The Tribune's idea is that the mo-
ment that the greenbacks reach a
value equal to or exceeding the value Of
silver coin. then the Secretary of the
Treasury will be under no necessity to
purchase silver with gold, because silver
will change places with the paper cur
reucy by the act of private capitalists.
The moment a silver dollar is worth
less than greenback as compared with
gold, the fractional currency will be
gathered up aud sent to the Treasury to
be redeemed in greebacks, and silver
will flow into cir culation by effort Of the
brokers and bankers, without any assist.
auce from the Government. Green
backs being legal tender for all sums
while silver coin is legal tender for the
sum Of five dollars, the former will have
superior valne in the market so soon
as the paper currency is exchangeable
into gold at the same or higher value
than the silver coin.

" ildeat 5aniing-rs We Want I'll

A few days ago the New York aud
Erie Bank in Buffalo went up. This
was one Of the remnants Of the old state
system of banking--it was not under the
national bank system. The president Of
the bank was the bank; he carried it in
his pocket, and when he died the bank
died with him, and the depositors and
stockholders have to look out for them.
selves to get their money back. If this
had been q national bank the govern
ment would have been on hand with
the bonds and securities deposited with
it, to redeem the obligations of the
bank. So we have an illustration Of
the old order Of fnanciering close at
home.
The Democratic State Convention OF
the great state of Pennsylvania has met
and deliberated and passed a resolution
in favor Of returning to this old, rotten,
worthless, wildcat system of banking and
the abolition of the present we'll secured
national bank system. This is state SOW
erignty gone to seed. For the sake Of
the theory of confniug everything in
government to the state, and taking
'verything possible away from the gen.
eral government, they would unsettle
trade, make the circulating medium
worthless, and precipitate the nation
into the horrible abyss Of financial au-
archy. Nothing could better illustrate
the utter recklcssness and lack of sense
and patriotism of the Democratic party.
They would like to return to the old
balmy days Of slavery, state sovereignty,
aud wildcat banking. They are op.
posed to whatever of good there is in
the present order o: things if it can
be shown that Republicans had any
thing to do with securing that good.
For the sake OF overthrowing the Re-
publican patty they would overthrow
the country; they would ruin the nation
tor the sake of party success.-Bu6alo

Proposed New National Bank.

A correspondent Of the Washington
Republican advocates the establishment
of new United States Treasury Bank.
He argues that what we need is ga Gen.
tral financial regulator, not an institution
aiming at making money, nor 10 enjoy
any arbitrary powers; on the contrary
its functions to be strictly prescribed
aud limited to the custody Of the public
treasure, to the issuing of the only cur
rency allowed in the Union, redeemable
in coin, and 10 all other respects only to
be the executive officer of such funda.
mental laws as would be laid down for
its government; aud the constitution Of
this financial institution should be as
Interchangeable aud surrounded by such
safeguards as correctly have been given
to the Constitution of the United States
ITSELF" In regard to the old National
Bank, he observes:
Andrew jackson assailed and abo,.
ished it. He proceeded in this matter
on the same reasoning as was employed
by the man who burned down his house
as the surest means OF getting rid of the
vermin in the same. Abuses and ire
gularities had, no doubt, crept into the
old National bank. This was because
it was endowed with privileges which
should have been kept carefully away
from such powerful institution. 1t
became corrupt, and corrupt political
center with corrupt moneyed power at
its command is an abomination. Still,
believe it would have been better for
the United States if Andrew jackson
had limmited himself to combat the
destructive elements in the institution,
corrected the abuses and made their
repetition impossible. Thus purified
the National bank would have continued
and might have proven bulwark in
1862 that would have saved us from
the shinplaster reign under which we
now have been painting and wasting
away so many valuable years.

from all directions, especially from the
great central agricultural county of
Lancaster. The grounds, including a
temporary addition for the present occa,

the demand seems to be for yet more

The following we clip from the Rdft'-
mans Journdl.-On Monday morning
about 7 o'clock, a tall guant and villainous
looking specimen of humanity passed
through town driving a large oz ahead Of
him. He wan,ed to sell il to landlord
Dougherty for sixty dollars, and In fun, Mr.
D. told him he would give forty dollars.
He had no sooner made the offer than it
was accepted, but he passed the fellow by,
and we next hear of him above town try.
ing to sell the OK to F. NJ. Carbon for
twenty-five dollars-it was evidently be-
ginning to burn his fingers. Fred refused
TO take the OK AID at the same time in
formed the stranger that he supposed he
had stolen it. He drove on. A few min
utes later q man on horseback comes along
inquiring for man driving an or, and
overtakes the pair just across the bridge,
two miles above town.
The driver of the OK proved to be one
Lorenzo Height, he having stolen it on
Sunday morning, from James Bennett,
who lives in Elk county, near Little Toby.
Lorenzo was invited to retrace his footsteps
as far as the Justices office. in this place,
but he refused to do so and his captor had
to get down and walk and allow Lorenzo
to occupy the saddle.
He was given o hearing before Justice
Porter and handed over to his captor to be
taken 10 Elk county. He remarked, "Well
all right: il you have a horse and buggy
handy" Just at that moment two fellows
stepped into the Office, each having rife
on his shoulder, one of them remarking,
M guess you will walk" Lorenzo cowed
little at seeing these two pursuers and had
little more to say. He watked peaceably to
the Jail there to await the pleasure of his
guardian angels and on Tuesday morning
they started with him for Ridgway. They
didn't compel him to walk, however but
loaded him into wagon.
Height has already served out two SEN
tences in the penitentiary, having been
sent there by the courts of Elk county, we
believe, and is now on fair way for q
third.
Mr.. Bennett, the man from whom he
stole the OK, says that there is o whole
gang Of these petty thieves out there, who
live by robbing spring houses, stealing
cattle and buichering them and selling the
meat, and following other like mean and
sneaking occupations. They live in shan
ties in the woods and Mr.. B. says it is the
intention Of the citizens to either kill or
drive them of. We certainly wish the
citizens success in either one or the other.

The Horse Disease.

This disease, resembling the epizootic
but milder in its nature, appeared some
weeks ago in Buffalo, and last Monday
manifested itselfin New York city. All
horses in the neighborhood of Central
Park, both in public and private stables,
are affected. 1t is obvious from the
way the disease has spread over the
city, that there is an infection in the
air. The epidemic is thought by many
to have proceeded from the Western
cities. The Superintendent of tie
Broadway Railway stables said that out
Of 200 horses, about 900 had had the
disease since last Thursday. He con-
sidered the distemper epidemic, but
feared no serious consequences from it.
He said the horses began coughing the
moment they left the stable for the open
air, aud thought that horses in private
stables, which were usually weighed
down with blankets, we're the greatest
