MIR, EDITOR OF THE GAZETTE: After
all we have heard and written about
imitation and specie payments as a pa
nacea, or remedy for hard times, and
reliever for the panic, it all amounts
to nothing. All must admit we want
good currency basis of some kind;
but L do not know that it is very i'm
portant of what it consists, so long as
we continue our national custom of
banking, which think is very good.
But one thing we do want, and will
never have permanent success until VIC
get it, and that is uniform rate of IL
terest all over the United States, estab-
lished by Congress, and not to exceed
four or four and half per cent. at
most, and all Government bonds issu
ed after the passage of such law, to
be taxed half of one per cent. This
mode will bring all the money into
circulation, and you will not hear of
one hundred and fifty millions of dol
lars being locked up in banks and
saving institutions, by money-lenders,
to catch industrious, honest men, who
are temporarily embarrassed, and
finally ruin them by charging twelve
or even twenty per cent. bonus. This
bonus business will be broken I'D by
such law, and cease to work SO much
distress and ruin.
We want cheap money and plenty
of it; and the rate of interest so regu-
lated as to keep it in circulation, and
do good; not to keep it boarded up un-
til it can be let loose to destroy. The
cry by many is. "there is plenty of
money" and l believe there is; but
they say confidence is gone. What
has got it? What confidence is neces-
gary should man want to borrow ten
thousand dollars on real estate worth
twenty? What confidence is neces.
sary?
l want to say few words about
government. Government ought to
stand behind individuals in this respect,
and not before them. Government
pays higher rate of interest in gold,
than many Of the States allow, and the
borrower sells the gold for fourteen to
sixteen per cent. premium. Govern
ment ought also to pass law taxing
gold sales six per cent; remember all
these high rates of interest, all these
premiums, &C., &C., have to be paid
by the consumer.
We hear some people say, "give the
laboring man and mechanic work at
fair prices, and you will not hear talk
of haad timesl" There is where the
trouble comes from; it cannot be done,
put the money In circulation and then
it can and will be done. But if the en-
ployer cannot dispose of his goods of
manufactery to some profit, he will not
give employment; and let me say here,
if we had all the money in this coun-
try and Europe, and lock it up, it
would do us no good. Ten dollars in
circulation is better to the community
than one million locked up. But you
will probably say no one will loan
their money on the terms propose
four per cent. In reply, will say no
one will keep it on hand twelve hours,
after he can find safe place to invest
it; and let me tell you, capitalists will
lock for investments, and if they do
not like to loan at the above rates, let
them go into business with their
money; and every article we have to
purchase will be so much lower when
we do not have high interest to pay.

Republican Senators and BelE-
maps Case.
Special despatch to the Phila. Times.

Speclal despatch TO tne Phlla. Times.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The coun-
sci for Belknap are still pursuing dila-
tory tactics, and are manifesling in
every possible way desire to avoid
and cvade the trial. The House man
ayers, on the contrary, want to 90 on,
This difference of tactics was signally
manifested to day when Mr.. Carpenter
who yesterday tried to have the mat
ter laid over till next winter, ask ed for
two weeks time in order 70 prepare
arguments on the question of jurisdie-
tion, which has now been before the
public for nearly two months. 1t is
obvious that on these preliminary
questions the sympathies of the bedy
ofssthe administration Senators are
with General Belknap. Conkling is
especially conspicuous, and is pract.
cally an assistant counsel for the ac-
cused. He and Matt Carpenter are
together rs they used to be when both
we're Senators. Mr.. Edmunds seems
to be an honorable exception to this
rule, and to day there were indications
on the Republican side of bolt from
Conkling's leadership, but the report
to day is current that the Republican
Senators will dodge the whole case on
the plea of want OF jurisdiction.

WASHINGTON.

Thurman falling behind in the Race.
Special des: atch to the Phia Times.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The cleo
tions as far as heard from in Ohio for
delegates to the State Convention are
reported to be unfavorable to Judge
Thurman's aspirations fer the Presi-
dency. The action of Lucas county
supporting Allen was wholly unex-
pected. 1t is now thought that the
Ohio delegation to St. Louis, which,
to late period, was confidently
claimed by Thurman's friends, will be
two or three to one against him.
The Impeachment Trial and the Ques-
tiOn of Jurisdiction.
WAsHINGroN, April 29.-The public
interest in the Belknap impeachment
trial showed considerable abatement
to day. At no time were the galleries
comfortably filled, and during a good
portion of the day they were not more
than half occupied. Judge Black did
not appear in the Senate at all, and
Mr.. Blair only for o short time. Gen.
Belknap sat in the chamber the whole
day, including the two or three hours
that the Senate was in the marble
room in secret consultation. Several
of his friends went up to him and con-
versed with him, including Justice
Miller, of the Supreme court, who is
from the same State as Gen. Belknap,
and Gen. Garfield. Gen. Belknap
conversed with great freedom as to the
position, which he occupies. 1t is in
ferred from the action taken by the
Senate in its determination to have the
question of jurisdiction argued preli-
minarily that considerable doubtexists
in the minds of Senators on this very
important point, and some of those
who are generally well posted are in
elined to believe that the Senate will
decide that it has no Jurisdiction.
THE BLAINE SCANDAL.
Representative Tarbox, of Mass, en-
deavored to offer q resolution to-day
looking to the investigation of the sixty
four thousand dollar bond transaction,
but Mr. Hurlbut, of ILL.,, personal friend
Of Speaker Blaine, objected. It is under
stood that the resolution will be again
offered and pressed till it is passed. 1t
Is stated tonight that MIR. Blaine is alb
sent from the city, but he has obtained
no leave OF atscence from the House.
