ALBANY, January 4.-Iu Governor Til.
denis message the common schools are men,
toned only'in the submission Of their statis-
tics. Nothing is said of the sectaran ques.
tiop, or the constitutional amendment pro-
posed by the President and Mr.. Blaine, or
the Gray Nuns act.
The Governor dwells at length upon the
financial condition Of the country. Among
the causes Of the great and protracted de.
preston be includes the eXtravagant expen.
ditures of public money. The Federal, State,
and local taxation was in 1850 1857 for each
inhabtant, in 1860 it was S4.90. and in 1870
it was 1881. 1t is difficult to add to the
force of these startling figures. The whole
amount of money raised by taxation in the
last eleven years is more than $1,000 100000
The remedy for existing evils, the
Governor holds, is in return to
sound principles of government. Our
prosperity must rest upon the old founda.
lions. There is popular revolt at financial
quackery. The Governor comments severely
upon the eXpedients of quacks, and finds nc
safety but in the restoration Of an honest
currency. He has no sympathy with the
theorists who, after eleven years of convul
sion without restoration, are now clamoring
for restoration without convulsion. He see:
no CONFUSION in return to specle.pay

MooDY AND SANKEY IN New YoRE.-Moody
and Sankey will soon abandon Philadelphia
for New York, and active preparations have
been begun to prepare the Hipprodome,
lately Glmore's Garden, for the services.
The building will be divided by partitions
into three apartments. Each partition will
extend from floor to ceiling, thus etfectually
preventing any noise which may prevail in
one room from disturbing the occupants of
either of the other two chambers. The ar
arrangements for seating the audience are to
remain as they have been, but the space
lately allotted 10 gravel walks and shrubbery
will all be utilized for the same purpose.
The ball at the southern end of the building
vii! be fitted up to accommodate between
seven and eight thousand people, while the
ball ut the north end will be arranged to seat
about four thousand. The intervening
space-about forty feet-between the two
halls will be devoted to offices and
retiring-rooms. The long, narrow cham
bers underneath the tiers Of seats on
the Madison and Fourtb-avenue sides
of the building, formerly devoted to
| occupied by the bar, lunch.counters,
and shooting galleries of Gilmore's Garden,
will be divided into apartments, which will
be used for purposes of religious converse
ton. The offices a. the corner of Fourth
avenue and Twenty-siXt5 street will be used
for business meetings by the several commit
tees. The time for the arrival Of Messrs.
Moody and SaDkey is not definitely known,
but the meetings will positively begin about
The 1st Of February. Should Mr.. Moody's
engagement in Philadelphia terminate before
that time it is probable preparatory meetings
will be held week earlier. Circulars have
been issued to the pastors of the several
churches asking the cooperation of them
selves and their congregations in providing
choir of five hundred voices, a corps Of
ushers, and no additions will be made to
either force from outside sources, as the
clergymen are promptly responding. Copies
Of the circular were read yesterday in the
Church of the Stranger and nearly all of the
Presbyterian and Reformed Dutch churches,
accompanied with appropriate remarks.

THE SILVER QUESTION IN CoNGEESs.-A
number of congressman have returned,
cooked and primed with financial schemes 10
be directed toward the amendment OF the re-
sumution act Of 1875 and the suspension OF
the sinking fund. The Pacific people are in
a bad way about their surplus OF silver. Inc
minis OF Europe are dosing against silver
coinage one by one, and the convention to be
held IN Brussels next month will be apt to
have an immediate effect upon Germany,
where the decentralization Of the silver tha-
Ter is about to be consummated. Ia the
German lower house bill has al
ready passed taking away the legal
,euder from the tbaler. This bill
will pass the higher branch, because it is
from the Imperial Chancellor Of the En-
chcqucr. When that immense volume OF
silver coins shall give way TO the gold coins
something must be done with the silver, and
1t is TO the interests of the miners of the Pa
cite slope to see that the value Of silver Is
maintained. Our trade dollar is highly salts
factory in Asia, and we are coming them
rapidly. The Pacific Coast people believe
that the rapid coinage OF silver in this coun-
try, and their being legal tenders for any
amount, will have the effect of making one
step in the direction Of specie-paymentS by
making silver take the place Of paper money.
| As this Congress is constituted it is safe to
assume that the only thing in that direction
probable to be done is the extension OF the
silver legal tender, which is now five dollars
to ten dollars. Inasmuch as the resumption
act VIII almost surely be amended IN some
particulars at this session, this idea will come
up as bone Of severe contention.-W 0Sh
ngton Republican.

formed upon such matters as he volunteers
to make public, states that if some of the
negotiations now pending in regard to the
utilization of the natural gas escaping from
the wells of Butler county are consummated,
enough of the new fuel will be brought here

factories. Both oil and gas can be conveyed
through the same pipes at the same time. and
separated at the termin' by means ,h o, large
are now representatives from two different
companies negotiating for all the patents
covering the separation of gas from oil or

panies is composed OF New York capitalists,
and the probabilities are that they will sue
