of the few men who can grab rail

Groenbacks not Money.

VI COl4BGCho IIOl VHOH6y.
The Hon, Robert G. Ingersoll evi.
IDENTIFY knows the diferance between
greenbacks and money, and apprecia-
tes the relations of the government to
the currency. If his speech at In
diaDapolis be any criterion. His
method of putting the case" is so sim
pie and clear that it can scarcely fail
to prove very effective. He gives his
idea Of finance as follows:-
In the first place, the government
don't support the people; the people
support the government. The govern.
ment passes around the hat, the gov.
ernment passes around the aims dish.
True enough, it has musket behind
1t, but it is a perpetual chronic pau
per. 1t passes, l told you, the aims
dish, and we all throw in our SHARE
except Tilden. (Great laughter. )This
government is perpetual consumer.
You understand me, the government
don't plough ground, the government
don't raise corn and wheat; the gov
ernment is simply perpetual consum-
er. We support the government.
Now, the idea that the government
can make money for you and me to
live on,-why, it is the same as though
my hired man should issue certificates
of my Indebtedness to him for me to
live on. Some people tell me that the
government can impress its sovereign.
ty on piece Of paper, and that is
money. Well, if it is, what's the use
Of wasting it in making 81 bills? It
takes no more ink and no more paper
why not make 81 900 bills? Why
not make 81 900, 100000 bills and all
be billionairs? Great laughter.) If
the government can make money, what
on earth does it collect from you and
me for? Why don't it make what
money it wants, take the taxes out,
and give the balance to us? (Laugh-
tor) Mr.. Greenbacker suppose the
government issued $100,000,0O0 to-
morrow, how would you get any of it?
CA voice, Steal it") I was not
speaking to the Democrats. (Laugh.
ter.) You would not get it unless you
had something to exchange for it. The
government would not go around and
give you your average. You have to
have some corn or wheat or pork to
give for it. How do you get money +?
BY work. Where from? You have to
dig 1t out of the ground. That is
where 1t comes from. The idea that
you can produce money without labor
is Just as foolish as the idea of perpet-
ual motion. They are old follies un-
der new names. Let me tell you an
other thing. The Democrats seem to
thInk that you can fail to keep
promise so long that it is as good as
though you had kept it. They say you
can stamp the sovereignty of the gov
ernment upon paper. The other day
| saw piece Of silver bearing the SOW
ereign stamp of Julius Cesar Julius
Cesar has been dust about 1000 years,
but that piece Of silver was worth just
as much as though Julius Caesar was at
the head of the Roman legions. Was
it his sovereignty that made IL valua-

Of paper. 1t would have been of no
more value than a Democratic prom

Financial Statistics.-The books OF the
City Auditor show that the bonded and en-
tire floating debt, inclusive OF the bonds to
the amount Of $4,000 recently issued for
street improvements; amount to s244, 900.
This also embraces the $1,000 created by
the building OF the Free bridge, and which
is secured by mortgage on the bridge.
This debt is secured by property belonging
to the city to the amount OF almost three
times the amount of its Indebtedness.
Part OF this property consists Of the valu-
able water-power along the line Of the canal,
which in itself is more than sufficient
security for this entire debt. This property
becomes more valuable every year, and
when every one OF its sites are occupied, as
they surely will be in course Of few years,
the value Of this property will be quad
rupled. Let the City Council take this great
water-line in hand, and do what is necessary
to have every available horsepower Of its
water put in use.

Brand-Ne,1 Idea.-Yesterday afternoon a
boy OF about thirteen years OF age might
have been seen bathing in the river near the
Free bridge, attired in a full bathing suit;
it is true, not such as is laid down in the sum
mer fashion notes, but one that answered
the same purpose and afforded this gamin
equally as much pleasure and sport. This
is new idea, and if more generally adopted
might afford much pleasure to many OF our
citizens. At any rate, it would he well for
the number OF young men who have been
in the habit Of bathing in the river near the
Free bridge, attired like the Georgia caval-
ryman, minus the collar, to adopt this boys
plan-that is, to put on more than a paper
collar and apron. A man don't look pretty
without nice bathing suit, and we are
glad that this idea has been adopted.

GYMAY.-As has already been announced,
the Rev. Dallas Tucker, OF this city, has
been called to another sphere OF religious
usefulness. The vestry OF Christ church,
to which he was attached, has adopted the
following resolutions
"It is with inexpressible regret and sor-
row that the yestrY OF Christ church meet
upon this occasion to present this last testi-
monial to its late beloved rector and friend
Rev. Dallas Tucker.
"And whereas, after some years OF labor
together, five of which Mr. Tucker has been
our rector, during which time, in addition
to the great and glorious work he has done,
he has been the medium Of cementing us to-
eether in bond OF friendship, which we
trust and believe will never be broken until
death stretches forth his irresistible arm
within our little circle; therefore be it
"Resolued, That the vestry OF Christ
church feel that in the departure of the
Rev. Dallas Tucker the church will sustain
n loss from which it will be difficult to re-
cover.
"ResoIved, That we feel great consolation
in this hour of darkness and gloom thus
suddenly cast over our little band in the
fact that our beloved rector is going to a
new home, where he will be among friends
and relatives, who feel nearly as much at
lection for him personally as we ourselves
do, and that Rev. Dallas Tucker carries
with him to his new field Of labor and love
our best wishes for himself and our prayers
that God will be with him in the future as
He has been in the past, strengthening him
with large outpouring of His Holy Spirit !;
and finally crowning his work with the sue
cess which usually accompanies such ener-
gy and zeal.
Resolued, That these resolutions be
spread upon the minutes Of this meeting,
and that copy of the same be forwarded
to the Southern Churchnan with the request
that they be published"
