great factor in the case but, until the con-
tract made last Saturday with the Syndi-
cate, resumption under the present law
seemed extremely questionable. The abil-
ity to sell the four and half per cents at
par made resumption possible, but left it
too difficult. The STABILITY Of the four per
cents at par in gold dispels all reasonable
doubt and opens plain path to specie pay
ments in 1879, if Secretary Sherman man
ages with the skill and prudence which
may be fairly expected of him.
Finding that resumption cannot be sue
cessfully resisted and cannot be postponed,
inasmuch as veto will prevent the repeal Of
the act of 1875 Congress will probably
consent to retirement of greenbacks by
direct funding at the rate Of five millions
month during the year 1878. This would
more than suffice for bringing the outstand-
ing greenbacks down to the prescribed three
hundred millions before January !, 1879.
No competent judge doubts that this
amount Of greenbacks can be kept at
par A considerable gold reserve should
be held against them at the date
Of resumption, in order that the ability OF
the Treasury to redeem on demand all that
are offered may be too fully assured to
admit Of any question. If the surplus sixty
millions of greenba are retired before the
date Of resumption the task Of preparing
meanwhile sufficient gold reserve to
keep the residue at par will not be diff
cult. Secretary Sherman has now got the
problem SO securely in his grasp that Con-
gress will probably accept and facilitate
what it is powerless to prevent

Blood for BLOOD.

The lesson Of the origin, the crimes and
the fate Of the Molly Maguires in the coal
regions of Pennsylvania, as told in the in
teresting letter Of our correspondent pub
lished to-day, is at once sad and instructive.
There seems something like shade of
excuse for the original combinations made
by the workers in the mines against the
power which has ground down the wages Of
labor lower and lower as coal has fallen in
price, refusing to bear any share Of the bur-
den imposed by the decline and throwing
oil upon the producers. When coal de-
clined in price to the consumer the great
carrying companies, strong in their monop-
oily, would not yield any Of their profits, but
left the producer to bear the whole burden
of the fall, and SO, says our correspond
ent, "cheap coal means the ruin of
thousands more work and less bread
for the toilers in the mines" Labor COM
bined against capital by means Of unions,
and then inside the unions was planted
the seed of secret society, which speedily
grew to be terrible engine Of the blacklist
crimes.
The Molly Maguires commenced by Sc
cretly controlling by their votes the action
Of the trade societies, carrying such union
lists as were not with them the way they de-
sired to 60, and then, extending their
sphere, they tried their power to con-
troll local politics. Working in the
dark they were the more dangerous and

labor, but the jury commissioners, became
subject to their influence. Copying the
tactics Of the old and new Tammany rings
they shrewdly cast their nets around the
administration of justice until the courts
were powerless against them The gratif-
cation of bad passions naturally followed
the sense of strength and responsibility,
and assassinations, mysterious and some
times seemingly purposeless, became COM
mon throughout the region infested by
these reckless villains. The old Tammany
banditti stole; the Molly Maguires MUIR
dered. But in each case crime increased in
proportion as immunity followed law
breaking, until detection and punishment
overlook the criminals. The doomed Mol
lies" who now lie in Jail awaiting death are
mainly young and desperate men. Tho
first step in lawlessness has led them on by
slow but certain stages to destruction.

happy are cut short by violent death.

Maker red with innocent blood. Even girls
have in some instances been dragged into
crime by these wretches while yet too young
to understand the consequences Of their
acts. The law should be suffered to take
its course on all the doomed men. The
gallows will reap rich harvest, but it will
not be begrudged if the terrible example
eradicates forever the cowardly and detest-
able crime of organized assassination.

THE RECEPTION of the Manhattan Club to
Mr.. Tilden Mr. Hendricks, Governor Robinson
and Lieutenant Governor Dorsheimer last night
was, in point of attendance and oratory,
entirely successful. All the speeches, OF
course, had more or less of n political signifi-
canoe. Mr.. Tilden was loudly cheered to the
echo, and SO were some OF the other speakers,
particularly Mr.. Hendricks. They all seemed
to have had 1850 in their eye, and we're san

must first deserve it.

A VOLCANIC DISTURBANCE is reported from
the Pacific coast, which has been attended by u
positive eruption from one of the long quiescent

as by ell odds the most ill-omened thing for

And it is not little curious that the Turks

There was no material difference either in

have had the lesson of the breech-loader as
