The Silver Swindle.

The project to resurrect "the dollar Of
our daddies' and make it full legal ten
der for the discharge of all private debts
and q medium for paying principal and in
terest of the national bonds is little too
steep. Silver as commodity, has hnc-
tuated in value to the enormous extent of
twenty-one per cent. within the last three
years. Until it shall have recovered set
tied value aud maintained it for period
of at least five years it would be flight
OF financial lunacy to confer upon it the
legal attributes sought to be given it by
the silver champions in Congress. The
fundamental requisite for standard of
value is that 1t shall be stable, but there is
hardly a commodity which has been
bought and sold in the markets of the
world for the last three years that has I'M
dergone such extreme mutations in
price as silver. Its price began TO de-
cline In 1874. but it was not Till May, 1875,
that the change became so marked as to
attract general attention. For forty years
previous to 1874. the average price of sill
yer In London was God. per ounce,
never rising more than Sd. above that
average nor falling more than I'D
below it. But in July 1876. its price
had declined to AID per ounce. The
price OF silver has since risen, but the
dollar Of our daddies" is still below the
value OF gold dollar. 1t may sink again
when that "big bonanza" the Comstock
lode, is worked to its full capacity of pro-
duction. Its owners have the stropges,
of possible motives for holding back and
not flooding the silver market while their
powerful lobby is intriguing to get dis.
honest silver bill passed through Con-
gress. They are in search of vast mar.
ket, and will do nothing meanwhile to for
felt the gigantic stake for which they ar,
playing. A commodity which has fluctu
ated to the enormous extent of twenty-ont
per cent within the last three years cannot
honestly be made a medium for the dis
charge of debts. either public or private

The Commissioner of Agriculture has re-
turns which indicate that England will
have to buy l04. OO0,0 900 bushels of wheat,
this year, owing to disappointment in
raising good crop at home. The Eng
lish crop was unusually short this year,
owing to defective curing. On the con-
tinent Of Europe there has been fair
general crop. The war will limit the
expectation from Russia and Turkey, and
in Eastern Europe the supply will not
greatly exceed the local demand. Egypt
and India will have larger surplus than
usual. and will probably increase their
shipments to Europe. The export OF
wheat from the United States now amounts
to $4,000. 900 bushels year, but the Com
missioner Of Agriculture thinks that this
country may be able this year to supply
the entire British deficiency.
