Mr.. Weed in Reply to Mr.. stephen

Mr.. Weed I'm Reply to Mr.. stephens.
We print this morning nm interesting letter
from Thurlow Weed in reply to letter pub
lished some days since from Alexander H.
Stephens, of Georgia. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. Weed averred that Mr.. Stephens,
when member of Congress from Georgia, had,
in company with Mr. Toombs, Mr.. Clingman
and other whig members, attempted to put a
severe pressure upon President Taylor in
behalf Of the disunionists. To this averment
Mr.. Stephens answered, denying that he had
ever spoken to President Taylor in the man
ner indicated by Mr. Weed. We should have
thought that the statement of Mr.. Stephens
would close the subject, but Mr.. Weed re-
turns to it with all the skill and fervor of a
trained controversialist. It is not for us to
interfere in discussion Of this kind, which
must in the end be determined by the gen.
tlemen who are now at issue Mr.. Weed and
Mr.. Stephens are men of great ability. who
have played prominent part in the annals
of the country. and whatever they contribute
to the history Of the Republic, and especially
to the episode Of slavery, will be of value.
We are confident that this discussion will
develop clear and accepted version Of the
matter at issue.

the st. Louis Convention can trump the re-
publican trick.
The wisest and soundest advice which the
Democratic Convention will receive from any
quarter is that which we gave it yesterday
namely, to pledge the party to restore specie
payments within the four years which
measure the next Presidential term, and as
much sooner as possible. The furthest
limit would be 1881, and if such pledge
were sincerely made and sacredly kept the
currency Of the country would be restored
to soundness without any sudden shock
or convulsion or any arrangement of bust
ness The country would know what to ex-
pect and to depend upon, and relief
from uncertainty would beget confidence
and set the wheels of industry in motion.
1t is absurd to think that we can reach specie
payments by . sudden jump or financial
coup de main 1t requires careful prepara-
ton, directed by great prudence and fore
sight 1t requires a large accumulation OF
specie, which cannot be suddenly brought
into the country without disturbing the
money markets of the world and causing
our policy to be opposed and thwarted BY
other countries. We have great deal to
learn from the instructive example of France.
France has not yet resumed, although
her paper currency has been at par for
nearly two years and although there is an
immense stock of gold in the Bank OF
France. Very soon after the close Of the
great German war she began to contract her
paper circulation and to accumulate gold,
and for nearly two years she has had most
of the advantages Of specie payments with
out the attendant dangers. Her caution
may be excessive, but when she begins re-
sumption she intends it shall be perma-
nent. But her promptness in starting on
the road was equal to her caution, and it
is to be wished that our country might
emulate so wise an example. IT, after SO
much imbecile delay, the democratic party
would put us in the same path, it would
establish claim to public confidence and
gratitude But this is more than we dare
expect.

The WoRKMEN COMING. We have shown

workmcn come from a Republic. They come
from people with whom we should be only
too glad to fraternize in this Centennial of a
liberty which we owe largely to France The
coming of these workmen is a notable event,
and we trust they will be welcomed as re-
publicans and workingmcn.

Governor Tilden as its second choice.
In Virginia and Georgia it would seem
that Uncle Samuel will be the first choice OF
majority If Bayard is out of the way. Ten

cock, and, indeed, the General has large
reversionary interest in nearly all the dele
cations. The South seems anxious to await
the voice of the North and West before talk

The South AND ST.. LOUIS. indus
trious reporters have made survey of the
democratic delegations to st. Louis from the
States of Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina,
Georgia, Tennessee and Louisiana, and OBJ
tanned as far as possible their preferences
for Presidential candidate. The general
feeling observable through all the interviews
is a desire to take the strongest man, with
out respect to individual likings. Hence,
in Virginia, North Carolina and louisiana,
although the sympathy of the delegates goes
out to Senator Bayard, they are prepared to
take Tilden, Hendricks, Hancock or Parker
whichever they think the democracy can win
with in November. Delaware is of course
strongly and unanimously, to the extent of
its three votes, for Bayard, but looks on

The regatta to-day, the second Of the
series given under the auspices Of the Cen
tennial Committee. will afford an exhibition
of speed and seamanship that cannot be ex-
celled by any other country in the world.
Thirty-ive yachts, all rating under fifteen
tons, only three of which are cabin boats,
will compete in the regatta; and as ten or
twelve of them are new, having been built
especially for this race, it will be interesting
to observe whether the latest models are an
improvement on those of past years. The
racing yachts are not restricted to the num-
Der of their crew or ballast and, conse-
quently, should the breeze prove light on
the return home, the scene in the Upper Bay
will be rather amusing, as in order to win
such race the ballast will all 50

and will no doubt be put in practice to-day.
1t is understood that protest has already
been sent to the committee, having reference
to the Amaryllis, nondescript kind of craft
that has been entered from the Providence
Yacht Club. 1t consists of two cigar-shaped
bulls, about four or five feet apart, partially
boarded over, and is rugged with jib and
mainsail. AS there is comparatively nothing
in the water it sails at high rate of speed
off the wind, but is slow in stays. The
yachts will sail twice around course, start
ing from off the New York Yacht Club
House, and good view can be had of tho
race from the Staten Island shore.

The ToRPEDo EXPLOSION at Greenville, n.
j., is being investigated but little evidence
has been given as to the cause of the disas-
ter. Two of the wounded are likely to die,
their injuries being regarded by the
physicians as fatal, while the others
are under the care of their friends, suffer
inc from the effects of the explo-
sion. There is an opportunity afforded by
this calamity to pronounce strongly against
the employment Of young children in any
factory where explosives are used, and We
hope that the Coroner's jury will not neglect
10 avail themselves of it on account of any
misconception of their duty.

vhich was heightened by music and the
sxcitement of the race. In contests Of this
kind the first away is as liable as not to be
