WASHINGTON, June 10.
Genera Butler intends TO form a
com binatiOn with Senator Jones, o.
Nevada, to press their financial views
upon the attention of Congress. But.
Ter said recently that the vote Of those
opposed to forced resumption would
soon be sounded. They were shout
ing o Justify for the RECOMMENDATION
OF silver, but that was only a cloak To
cover their real purpose. The next
Congress, said Butler, is certain to
settle the silver question, and then we
shall show our hands by demanding
that the amount OF legal tenders shall
be put back to what they were in
March, '69, aud so kept without the
interference Of the Secretary of the
Treasury. Jones is a couver t o Gen
eral Buffers idea. and is now as
strongly in favor of paper money, as
he was years ago in favor of gold and
silver exclusively. When Jones infiu-
enced Grant to stand by the hard
money doctrines, his friends here
never expected to see him ia active ac
cord with the very men whom he then
denounced.
II is understood that Mr.. Linderman
Will recommend in his annual report
the coinage of two gold pieces 20 take
the place of the W dollar aud a half
gold pieces.
