The new silver trade dollar recent
ly issued from the Uuited States Mint,
though being rapidly absorbed by China
and other countries. is worth only ninety
seven cents in geld in our own market.
The silver halfdollar Of the same issue
f~orty-seven cents in gold. The reason of
this is plain; the silver coin will not be
received 10 payment Of duties at the Gus
tom-house in amounts over five dollars.
while for every other purpose the people
find their paper currency far lighter and
more convenient. Only that this silver
dollar passes current in China and the
Pacific trade generally, itwould be worth
from seven to temper cent. less. Hence,
BY a simple process of reasoning, it is
easy to perceive that if greenbacks we're
made receivable for custom duties, the
gold premium would disappear in u
twinkling.

priatious iuterfered with no regularly

adjustment of the Eastern Oregon

from the salaries paid at large post

can be seen by any one who will read

MS Op1n10n OF tho C0nd Ida ties,
and Views on the silver Ques-
ton.
We had the pleasure yesterday of
meeting ex-senator w. NJ. Stewart,
who was on the passenger train going
west. While he was in the Senate, We
felt it to be our duty TO oppose him;
believing, as We did, that he was for all
the moneyed rings in the country but
particularly the Central Pacific kail-
road ring. Though our opinion on that
point remains as it WAS, We are now, az
ever, willing TO give the devil his due;
and laying aside all political prejndices
against the ex-senator. truth aud justice
compels us 10 state that he always

the liberty of asking what he thought

thought of the silver Question. He
started in to elucidate. but the bell
tapped, and the conductor cried, "All

WEEKLY SUN.
THE
1776. NEW YORK. 1875.

Eighteen hundred and seventy
six is the Centennial year. 1t is
also the year when an Opposition
House Of Representatives., the first
since the war, will be in power at
Washington and the year OF the
twenty third election of a President
of the United States. All of these
events are sure to be of great inter-
est and Importance, especially to the
two latter; and all of them and ev.
erything connected with them will
be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in The Sun.
The Opposition House of Repre-
sentatives, taking up the line of in
quiry opened years ago by The sun,
will sternly and diligently investi-
gate the cOrruptions and misdeeds
of Grants administration and will,
it is to be hoped, lay the foundation
for new and better period in our
National history. Of all this The
Sun will contain complete and ac-
curate accounts, furnishing its read
ers with early and trustworthy in
formation upon these absorbing
topics.
election, with the preparations for
it. will be memorable as deciding
upon Grants aspirations for third
term of power and plumber, and
still more as deciding who shall be
the candidate of the party OF Re-
form, and as eiecting that candidate.
Concerning all these subjects, those
who read The Sun have the constant
means of being thoroughly well in
formed.
The Weekly Sun, which has at
tanned circulation of over eighty
thousand copies, already has its

trust, treated in clear, interesting

give in its columns u large amount
of miscellaneous reading, such as
stories, tales, poems, scientific in
