THE French VEYHOD.

The House of Representatives pa, voted by
a large majority 10 make silver CONS, oil lower
maract value than the paper currency, ltSai
tender to any amount. l III, extreme measure
has not passed the Senate, and probably will
not. But it is interesting to observe how
differently this subject is treated in this coun-
fry and in France. Although France is of all
countries the most strongly attached to the
bl-mctallic system, and although it has, in the
composition Of it's present currency and in the
large store of silver on hand, stronger reason
than any other country to check, if possible,
the fall OF silver. it acts with great caution.
The question of silver coinage came
before tie French Senate in March last.
The lawgivcrs of that country do not
imagine that, like Senator Logan. they are
fully qualified by two weeks study to act I'M
mcdatcy upon any problem OF finance.
Neither did they venture, like our Repre-
sentatives. to decide upon this grave question,
under the previous question, without any de-
bate, or any examination by committee. They
referred the matter to II committee which was
composed of the statesmen most perfectly
qualified by years of study for the eyamina-
ton of such II problem, including NM. Rou-
land, Governor of the Bank of France, LGOnce
de Iavcrgnc De NentayOn, WO,Owski, and
Corier After this committee had devoted
some time to the question, and had made an
elaborate report, the Senate did not even
then venture to act without full discussion,
lasting through two whole sittings But, after
all this caution, the bill originally drawn by
the Minister of Finance, and approved by the
special committee, was read the first time,
and further delay followed, that those who de-
sire may examine the matter again III the
light of the report and debate The facts and
arguments therein presented should be of much
interest to legislators in this country, who do
not seem TO have time or disposition to ex-
anime such question for themselves.
The report of the committee, drawn by NJ.
Rouland attributes the depreciation of silver
TO three causes The diminution in cXporta-
ton of silver to the East, he believes, will
cease with recovery OF trade and years Of
abundance. The increased production, espe-
cially in the United States, he maintains, has
been insufficient to produce any considerable
change in the price. From 1872 to 1875 the
production only increased from 325,OOO,OOO
francs to 400, 100000 francs, and this in
crease Of only 100000 francs, he reasons,

could not have caused the price to
fall from coll pence to 5Oi2 pence
per ounce. The real cause, ne maintains,
is the effort of Germany to get rid of its stock
of silver, and this influence will soon cease. In
the debate, however, it was objected that the
actual exports from Germany were not large,
and journal of Hamburg was quoted as au-
thOrity for the statement that the balance sent
out from Germany during 1873, 1874, and ten
months of 1875, was only 62,OOO,OOO marks.
1t was also urged that the famine IN India
would naturally have caused increased expor-
tation of silver to that country, instead OF de-
crease that Indian railway loans had ceased,
and that country instead OF receiving capltal
from England was now obliged to return II III
interest and that the payments for cotton had
largely diminished.
In respect to the increase of production,
however, the debate brought out the important
fact that the new silver mines yield large
proportion of gold, so that ut present all the
silver produced bears with it about AZ per
cent of gold, and that this proportion seemed
to he steadily increasing NJ. Rouland urged
that it was not the quantity of silver actually
exported by Germany, but the effort 10 sell
from 1OO,OOO,O00 to SOO,OOO,GOO francs,
which had affected the market. NJ. Leon
Say, Minister of Finance, thought 1t
impossible to say as yet whether the
depreciation in silver was permanent
or merely temporary and therefore urged
policy which would leave France free either to
increase indefinitely It's stock of silver, or to
hold as small stock as possible if the deprc-
citation should prove permanent This view
prevailed. The bill offered by the Minister of
Finance. and ordered to first reading, en-
powers the Government to limit or suspend 10y
y decree, mt its discretion, the manufacture of
silver iyc-iIanc coins.

There was a lively scene in the French
Chamber of Deputies yesterday. NJ. de
Cassagnac, the notorious Bonapartist declared
that the intolerance of the Republicans was
producing close alliance among all mon
alchsts against the common cnemy-thc Re
public. The usual uDr0ar followed. The
Minister of the Interior denounced the speech
as an attempt of the m0narchists to gam
President MacMahon's favor, who, he said, had
Loyalty accepted Che Republic. N. Keller, a
Legitimst, said his party were often found
voting with the Bonapartists bat they repudi-
ated any connection with them. When the
debate closed the Bonapartist election which
had occasioncd it, was declared invalid by a
vote Of 331 to 1919. It is evident from this
that the Monarchist and lmpcralst union
against the Republic il still q chimera.

IN Turkey the allied forces are keeping the
Sultan's army on the alert. Gen. Tchcrnayctt
is reported to be advancing on Sophia, AN
important town in Bulgaria, connected by
railroad with Cons;antinople If the servans
succeed in this movement they may expect aid
from the Bulgarians, who have suffered lately
from Turkish feiocity. In Herzegovina the
patriot army has been reinforced by the Mon
tencgrins, who are approaching Mostar where
Mukhtar Pasha lately transferred his forces.
While the Turks are embarrassed by these aS-
gressiye movements, ROumama has suddenly
assumed a hostile attitude and sent troops to
the Danube to prevent Turkish gunboats from
warfare on that river. Despite the minor ac
vantages claimed by the Turks, the first week
of the campaign closes favorably for the allied
armies.

Additional details take nothing from the
gloomy record of the destruction of Gen. Custer
and his entire command. Partisan newspapers
arc already endcavorng TO make use of it for
political effect Democratic journals claiming
that it is consequence of keeping the army
employed at the South instead of the West !;
Republican papers speaking of it as result OF
the reduction of the Army by measures passed
in the House. II would be decent to wait
while till the nation has recovered from its
grief before attempting to utilize so sad an
occurrence for party purposes.

There is great variety in the subjects OF orr

r0pean countries. and of Egypt and Hawaii,
present many new suggestions as there Illus

Though rich in barbaric pearl and gold,
the Ottoman workmanship is not greatly at

probably the opening of the Michigan build

Mr.. Morrill,, before leaving the Senate to take
his position as Secretary of the Treasury,
delivered parting shot at the House, with
more than his usual severity. 1t is evident
however, that the jealousy which always sub
sists between the two Houses has a great deal
to do with the differences between them. The
public is very little interested as to whether the
Senate thinks that the House interfcres too
much or whether the House thinks that the
Senate usurps power. The main issue is
whether public business shall be expedited or
delayed.
