A Prediction.
from the Camden q. J.) New RepublIc.]

From the Camden tN.J.) New Republc.]
The ill effects of undue contraction al
ready visible show what may be expected
from continuance of the astringent policy,
especially If it he pushed to the verge OF
serious effort at resumption at the period
provided in the Sherman panacea plaster
of last winter. Under the Influence OF the
pauic, the stagnation Of manutac lures, the
cessation OF railroad extension, the paraly-
sis of the iron trade, and the general dIstrac-
ton and dulness existing in business GUAM
nes, money has been diverted from It's Ie-
Ultimate use as medium Of exchange and
measure of values until those who deal in
money instead of commodities have more
than they know what to do With, buy
ing municipal and other bonds at premium
almost equal to the interest they bear, Dut
refusing all aid and comfort TO what they
affect to consider precarious business; as u
it were not natural that all business should
become precarious when the Likelihood Is
squeezed out
Advocates of continuance of this policy
claim that the darkest hour before dawn
holds good in this: that the patient must get
worse before he gets better that, being Us
bad as he can possibly get, convalc$cence must
commence soon, it never being counted

latter end is what we are approaching, ana
galloping consumption bears no comparison
10 the CELEBRITY with which we are moving
towards it. Fortunately. there is a still,
small voice crying "Halt!" And while it
may be so small as TO be lost in the hub

click and clatter Of the moDeycentres II
is nevertheless assuming compass ana
volume on the praries of the West and
savaunahs OF the South, and ere long it will
roll over the country like thunder. peal.
Legislation Of the character proposed by
Judge Kelley is not only meeting with ap-
proval, but it is demanded by the men
who toil-the source and sustenance OF all
wealth the stone rejected by the builders
will become the head OF the corner, ana tha',
too, at u period no more remote than the
coming presidential election. Nothing Is
more true than that the leaders OF both par
ties favor the contraction policy, winch
makes the rich richer aud the poor poorer
and nothing is more certain than the TACT,
which the leaders should have Judgment
enough to realize, that other exciting issues
aud dividing lines being settled or buried IN
oblivion the voting masses OF both parties
are ready TO take a hand for themselves,
come together on the same platform, ana
stand on one of their own rearing instead OIL

RIcHMoND.-It is gratifying to see our own

the near future will prove Richmond to be
the Queen City Of the South. It's 10 the 10.
terest of Virginia merchants TO build up a
large trade in their own State, aud they can
not do better than by purchasing their goods

and taxpayers generally to show favor to

TIE BEECuER ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Church seems determined to defy ca!umny
and wash MIR. BEEcHER white by voting him
money aud honors. They say:
We know not we care not. If quilts in thy heart
| We know that we love thee VIII 'tever thou art.
This congregation has, as all know, just
voted him 100000 salary. They are snow
ing him all manner Of courtesy and honor
On Thursday large number OF friends, lncIu'
ding seventy members of Plymouth Chllrch
choir. visited him at his place at Peeksklll,
on the Hudson. On landing, an immense
line of colches took the multitude TO the
rountry.scat of Mr.. BEEcuER, where he met
the multitude and became the constant o.
ject OF their attention and aflectionate de-
mons,rations. When Mr.. BEECHeR met the
crowd he was bright with merry humor,
and his "coustant laughing inquiry says
the chronicler, was, care there any more .;
to which he received the answer, "Ihe
woods arc full of them"
The choir sung Damber OF pieces, IN
Guiding the hymn entitled "Beecher." Mrs.
BEEcuER joined the company, and declared
that she felt perfectly happy" What will
these Beechcrtes do neXtS They seem to
Be endeavoring to run paradise OF their
own. BEEcHER has bias that way himself;
be is so fond OF rural scenes, with their real
poetry, Including birds songs, and birds
nests, and all the pleasures OF free-love oil
nature In the forests. He must have been
happy with his pockets full of money ana
four and twenty blackbirds baked in pie
But Plymouth don't mean to put up With
this "rural felicity" alone. They are going
to show their "beloved pastor" that the
city has charms as well as the country. They
are already getting up a grand reception tol
Mr.. i5EECuER when he comes from his sum
ner holiday on the last Wednesday in Sep
TENDER. The ceremony of reception is Il
lake place in the Academy of Music, Brook
lvn. Distinguished committeeman are ap
pointed, and everything is to be done IN Jam
ND s,ye-and all regardless of what TIT
world may say and think, and also OF ca
penSe.
Are not the Plymouth people rather over
doing tniugs? Would it not be better tc
allow Mr.. RAECHER TO retire awhile behind
the scenes and get ready for another act
That in which he has just appeared con.
tanned developments which his best friends
deeply deplored. He was caught in very bad
company, aud at one time seemed fast falling
a victim TO theories and Sentimentalities not

The North Carolina Fight.

The North Carolin l-gauge fight is most
remarkable aiflr. We are entirely satisfied
that the North CaroliUians do net care Il tig
for it. We are convinced that the majority
of the North Carolinians are in favor of the
tiye-foot gauge as that which unitcs them by
uniform gauge with the South as far Us the
Rio Grande. Yet somebody carries on the
fight somebody spends the money not only
to carry on the tight, but to bolster up the
fealty and devotion Of those who maintain
the war-cry and the show or resistance in
the many ways known to those who take
"the bounty" in railroad wars.
President BcFoRD had to ran the gauntlet
again last week, In the Wake county Circuit
Court, against the "Cat-in-the-mealtub,'
who sues in the name of North Carolina.
BuFoRD gained the day and put the "old
cat" to discomfort. Yet she, having nine
lives, appeals to the higher tribunal-the
Supreme Court.
This is well. 1t is to be hoped that the
case will soon be brought to trial there
This time BUFoRD has the advantage. tie
has the whip.hand. We have no doubt thai
the decision when given will sustain BUFoRI
and his corporation; but It it is never given
they will be none the worse off. Act there
are others who will be, to the extent OF costs
and a liberal amount to fee "industrious
fieas," whose vocation it ds to poster people
and create general annoyance.
The right of che Atlanta Air-Liuesso change
the gauge ON the North Carolina railroad
seems to be clear that 1t Is for the best in
terests Of North Carolina that her roads
should be Of uniform gauge with that of the
roads in the States south and west of ker no
sensible, honest man will deny. but there
are some persons aud corporations whsse in.
terests differ from those Of North Carolina.
We do not believe that North Carolina is 20.
ing to be fool enough to impair her owl in
terests for their sake! Ii she does she will
be the biggest fool of State nAat we eyer
