a mArrEn OF BUSINESS.

The Enterprise OF the 10Th raises its
voice in defense Of the action of the Pa
ciic Railroad Companies in refusing TO
establish Centennial fares this year. 1t
says: "a good many of u contem-
poraries are saying harsh things be-
cause the Pacific Railroad Companies
have determined to make no deduction
in passenger rates East during the pro-
gress of the Centennial Exhibition next
Summer. There is no cause for COM
plant on that score. 1t is simply a
business proposition. The only ques-
ton which can be expected to effect
those corporations is: will a low
or high rate of passage secure us the
greater revenue?' They have decided
that it will be more profitable to carry
a few people on high fare over their
roads than a great many on low fares.
This may be an error of Judgment on
their part, bat to denounce them as ex-
tortionists, or to impeach their patriot
Ism for such a cause is unfair. Phila-
delphia grocers will hardly reduce the
price of their goods if a hundred thou
sand strangers flock to that city next
Summer. Neither will hotel keep
ers reduce the price of board, nor
landlords their rents. Along the
roads there will be no deduction
made on the meals of the Cali
fornian simply because he is going to
the Centennial. The railroads deserve
no abuse on such a score. 1t is going
ito be a holiday for people, and people
always love to pay for such luxuries.
In arranging their passenger tariffs the
companies are but doing what any of
their defamers would do with the
same Opportunities given them. If in
other things those companies were
equally just with the public there
would be no cause of complaint.
But when a Virginia City mar starts
for the Centennial, reaches Reno and
finds that a ticket to Chicago costs him
more than did the ticket of the San
Francisco maj who has been riding
already three hundred miles on that
ticket, then he finds that somehow in
railroad arithmetic twice one does not
make two and his growl is legitimate

The annual estimates of the Secretary
of the Treasury for the year ending
January 80, 1875, amount to the enor-
NOUS aggregate of 1914, 81 ,6OS-S21 ,446,-
$50 more than the appropriations made
by Congress for the current year. In
other words, says the Boston Post, the
appropriations for the fiscal year 1875
are somewhat over $293, 0OO, 900, but for
the next year, 1876, the estimates are
over 1914, 900 900. Ten years after the
war, in a state Of peace, after some seven
thousand millions of dollars have been
wrung from the people in every form
of tax, appropriations for a single
years. expenses are asked Of Congress
amounting to more than $4,000, 900.
The bare proposal is SO Wild in a period
like this which we are passing through
that an honest Congress might be ex-
pected to rise bodily in its seats and
howl it down with one voice of disap-
probation. Besides the interest on the
public debt and pensions, there is no
visible reason why the Government
expenses should be any larger than
they were before the war. If there is,
let the party still in power come for
ward and show it. All through the
dreary administration of the Treasury
by Mr.. Boutwell,, the promise was reit-
Grated that the heavy taxation would
greatly reduce the interest of the debt,
for which it was intended. Whatever
may have been taken off on that score
is much more than added to pensions
and other charges. And now we are
asked for twenty-one millions more
than last year.
1t is the very time to say once for all
that this country cannot stand it. 1t is
eating up our capital itself. Before a
single dollar Of appropriations is voted
by Congress, its duty is to challenge
every item in the estimate and refuse
every expenditure that is not an abso
Lutte necessity. The people are pinch
ing and serimPing in their personal af-
fairs. and doing their utmost to help
lit poverty aud enforced idleness over
the rough places, and it is time that
the Government set about the same n.
welcome business.

! BLAINE'N AMNESTY AMEND
.eF3s4lkt- MENT.

In regard to the amendment offered
by Mr.. Blaine 10 the Amnesty bill re-
Gently rejected by the House the Bos-
ton Post says:
MIR. Blaine's proposition to exclude
Jefferson Davis from the benefits of
amnesty, which, Judging from the pres
ent temper of Congress, seems likely to
be offered to everybody else in the
South, is unworthy a man of his prom
inence and is evidence of a small poll
cy that might rather have been ex-
pected to come from a Cason or a Fort.
The late President of the Southern
Confederacy is perhaps as harmless a
man as any that move among the
forty odd millions that inhabit this
country. He has forfeited the conf
dence of both North and South; and
his position is as obscure and unenvi-
able as the best hater Of the late Con
federacy could wish. Why then
should Mr.. Blaine seek to separate this
harmless and almost forgotten old
man from all the rest Of the world and
give him . character by making q
martyr OF him? We want TO bury the
memory of the rebellion SO far out O
sight that not a single trace of it will
be LEFT. But Mr.. Blaine would virtu
ally say to those to whom we gram
amnesty, "There is your scapegoa'
travelling about the country" W.
want no such spectacle during the
Centennial year; and II Congress fol-
lows in the spirit OF MI. News admir-
able resolution we shall not have it.
Mr.. Blaine would have the United
States make without any excuse O
apology the same mistake in refer
once to Jed. Davis, that Great Britain

ot rsason) in the treatment Of Ma

FINANCE AND EGGS.

She said she'd take a dozen of eggs,
but while the grocer was counting them
out she asked the price. lie told her
and she shrieked:
"Seventeen cents?"
"Yes, ma'ani."
"Why, that's outrageous!"
"Well, it is hard times and every
thing is up"
2 She sat down on a sugar tarrel,
sighed several times, and asked if eggs
were likely to be lower or higher.
Il don't claim to he a prophet he
replied, as he twisted a sheet of paper
into the shape of a funnel, "but dare
say that they'll be down to sixteen and
a half cents in less than a week. and
perhaps go lower. Trade, which is
naturally depressed during July and
August, is looking up a little. Our ex-
ports Of gold are now equaied by our
imports. The calling in OF bonds puts
money atioat, and capitalists are
much more hopeful this week than last.
The crops are about ready to move,
navigation prospects are brighter, and
public confidence in financial meas
ures is rapidly returning. One thing
move around another, you see, and
though, as I said before, | am not a fl
nancier and my predictions are not en-
titled tn any great weight, it seems
clear to me that eggs have got to come
down. A great current Of eggs is set
ting toward this point from a dozen
different directions, and even if the
calling in of bonds and the sale of sur
plus gold don't produce lower prices, |
cannot see why figures should go up"
She reached into the pickle barrel,
nipped a cucumber, and went away,
wondering why her husband never
knew anything.-Detroit Free Press.

HOW To RESUME SPECIE PAY.
MENTS AT ONCE.

Provide that notes, bonds, and all
other forms of existing Indebtedness
Including official salaries), now pay
able in greenbacks, shalt be payable at
a discount oils per cent. IN GOLD!
This would obviate the objection to
forced resumption, namely, that it
would increase the burdens of the
debtor class to the extent of the differ
ence between gold and paper, and
would work no injustice to the creditor
class, as they would receive all they
now receive and all to which in justice
they are entitled.
But in order to sustain resumption,
and make it permanent and enduring,
the annual expenses of the Government
must be reduced to within 500, 000, 900;
retrenchment, economy, and honesty
must characterize every arm of the
public service; and ring swindling, of.
fetal peculation, and robbery cease al
together.
With these reforms specie resump'
ton can be permanently maintained
Without them it cannot.
No patent has yet been applied for or

MACMAHoN's PRoCLAMATIoN.-Re-
publican feeling in France is strong,
without excess or extravaganza, as IS
evident from the reception which is ac-
corded to Marshal MacMahon's proc
laination. Even Gambetta's organ re-
CARDS it with favor and finds in its tone
and purpose confirmation Of the Re-
public. All this We regard as among
the best signs we have seen in France
ut any time since the establishment of
the present government. Moderation
in the Republic is the surest safeguard
against either the monarchy or the
Empire, and this spirit seems to ami
mate even the radicals just now, but it
will not hurt to have Hugo and Blanc
in the Senate. Such republicans in
their old age cannot fail to be worthy
Senators of the Republic.
