We transfer to our columns another re-
markahr defence OF Judge JOSEPH =. BRAD
LEY II il from the Ntlrdrk Advertiser and
yet that journal takes pains to say that it
- not Judge BRADLEY's organ. and
that its editor has had no communication
with him on this subject since last fcbru-
AIRY. It. allegation Is that the charge
that BRADLEY told Judge FIELD, on the
evening before the decision Of the Elcc-
toral Tribunal In the Florida case, that he
had determined to vote for admitting the
TILDEN electors, il n calumny, an all
solute and entire falschood. 1t adds also
the trihing circumstance that Judge FIELD
impcrtincntly followed Judge BRADLEY dur
ing the whole of that case; and that in try
ing to pump BRADLEY, Judge FIELD got de-
ludcd In other words, BRADLEY took FIELD
in; and yet. according to this only defender
of BRADLEY, Judge FIELD lies when he re-
ports what BRADLEY made him believe!
This is more interesting than ever; and
what is most curious is that while theeditor
of the AdrtrtisCr PROPOSES that for some
eight months he has had no conversation
with Judge BRADLEY ON the subject, he does
not hesitate on behalf Of his principal. and
on such grounds as we have stated, to ac-
cuso Judge FIELD OF impcrtincncc, calum-

THE SILVER QUESTION.
Position of the ADMINISTRATION Define,
Washington Cor. Chicago Times.l

washington Cor. Chicago Timesl
Now that it is known beyond ques-
tlon that the administration is in favor of
the remonetizing of silver, it is of inter-
est to know just the meaning of their
proposed plans. Sherman's bill, intro
duced In the Senate on the 18th of Jan
uary, 1877, as substitute for BANDS
H :, oil, very properly outlines what
the administration proposes to advocate.
Bland's bill remonetized, not the silver
dollar OF our fathers, bit the lighter
dollar OF 1887, for all payments: and il
also permitted everybody to take bullion
and have it coined into dollars. Sher-
mans bill says said silver dollar shall be
issued In redemption of United States
notes on demand of the holder. under GEN
eral regulations of the Secretary of the
Treasury; and United States bonds re-
deemed under this act shall be Cancelled
and held to be part of the sinking fund
provided for by existing law interest to
be computed thereon as in the case Of
bonds redeemed Under this act can
celed greenbacks would, with Cancelled
bonds, become a part of the sinking
fund, now made up exclusively by the
canceling of bonded obligations of the
Government, although none of the coin
customs revenues now devoted to buying
bonds for the sinking fund would be d.
verted from the purposes contemplated
in the act of 1870, for the redemption of
bonded Indebtedness. One method by
which greenbacks would disappear and
silver dollars be substituted through
this bill, under general regulation of
the Secretary of the Treasury, might IN
questionably be by using the currency
balance for this purpose. Government
would get its promises to pay off the
market, and the people would get an
even cheaper dollar than the greenback,
and which it would not be called on to
redeem. This would suit Sherman, who
wants less greenbacks, and suit his
friends, who want more silver The last
section OF Sherman's bill provides for a
commission to attend any international
convention which may be called to adopt
ratio In the gold and silver coinages in
the different countries of the world. One
object which such convention may be
called on to carry out is outlined in a
report made by Sherman a year ago last
winter, proposing that when gold stood
at 1893, and paper dollar was worth
973 cents, the American gold dollar
should be reduced to the last-named fig.
ure, which would make it exactly a. fifGi
OF a pound sterling, on condition tina.
England changed her money Of accoun-
to dollar, this country changing its
standard and England its nomenclature.

Death of Gen. Henningsen.

The visit of Kossuth to America twen-
ty-fve years ago will be recalled to the
recollection of old inhabitants by the
announcement of the death of Gen. G.
A. Henningsen, who accompanied the
" iberator'' to this country, having fol-
lowed his fortunes through the disas-
rous war for the establishment of the
Hungarian republic. Henningsen after
ward achieved notoriety in the Walker
broils in Central America His death
occurred in Washington, at the age of
81 years. Klapka, another and more
conspicuous of Kossuth's companians, at
present holds high command IN the
Turkish army.
