SMALL CHANGE.

A committee Of the San francisco
Chamber Of Commerce held a meeting
. few days sgo, In which resolution
was offered that pending the REMEDY
Of the difficulty by national legislation
prices should be established on the
standard Of silver coir, and that gold
be received at its msrke. premium
The meeting failed to pass this however
but ended BY adopting instead the fol
lowing
"WngREAs, There exists in this com
munity, - an inheritance from the early
flush times, loose and unreasonable
sys,em Of making change, known - the
"bit" aystem. wherein no coin less than
five cents is recognized aud whereas
the said system is unjust and oromotis e
Of petty dishonesty.
.'Restrcd. That in the opinion OF this
meeting the introduction and general
use Of the smaller United States coins
by means Of which exact change can he
made IN business transactions. Is desira-
Die. and would be public convenience
and benefit"
This suggests the fact. that of the two
mstals, silver aud gold, silver is The
most useful Of the two; for although
the less numerous large transactions Of
business may be done by means Of pa
per, silver is indispensable for the mul
titudinous trsMc Of ordinary life. The
shin-plsstsr system 10 an abominatior
and absurdity. The idea of the retail
trade Of great nation, that supplies
tho world with the precious metals. be.
ing carried Oh by means Of little greasy,
torn and generally illegible scraps OF
wads OF paper. labeled from fifty cents
to Ave, is ,idiculous. and the wonder i,
that il should have been maintained up
to the last year or two.
The need Of the country is such q
modification Of the standard IS shall
make silver coins actually equal in val
ue with gold. and a statute making
them equally with gold a legal tender
in all transactions.

CONTRA CREDIT.

There AFRO two sides TO the silver
question. Silver always has been .
good thing and slways will be. 1t ID
impossible that An article, VIII ich is in
universal use and Of indispensable ser
vice should be long depressed below its
natural value at the csll of any comb
nation Of brokers Or speculators. 1t is
true that if lower priced money be
taken on al equality with gold. the
gold will DO withdra ~n in favor Of the
baser article. or rather, in the case OF
. coantry that imports oil its specie in
stead Of exporting. the gold will not
low ia. But If the discount be on &C.
count of the ovsr-abundAnce of silver.
it will flow the more copiously into
the country where It is appreciated. II
on the other hand. it be not plentiful.
Il viii speedily rise in value. and in
either event the country which favors
il will be the gainer.
The effect Of thus taking silver At par
10 to put premium ~ it were on home
trade. which is certainly Quo argument
10 its favor. As long ss it circulates
freely through the local channels Of
business it answers all the purposes Of
exchange. The inability to uss it for
transactions abroad. except ss . dis
count Of six OF seven per cent. is check
upon lis export and . barrier to keep
II in circulation in the country.

NEW York, FEB. 2.-The 7ra'1n<'.
Washington special says: A Repu blicsn
lawyer connected With tho Louisiana
case said to night: I'VE cannot at
present give our side Of the Louisiana
bribery story. The purpose Of the
Democratic committee under Dudley
Fields leadership. is to conceal the
Republican side Of the case. and pos
sibly the Democrats hope to prevent its
being made At any time. All l can
say Is that it is a dA,nnab!s conspiracy
In few day. we shsll bs able to prove
this to the satisfaction Of every no est

the people OF the country net to be

truth is told the public will be

suffering with the Piles They can be
cured by the Wightman Process. by C..

Smyrna times., 1877-02-07

SERVED HER RIGHT.-The following
laughable incident is told by a we'll known
Government office holder who has nothing
else to do but ride on the cars: "There
were two seats in the car turned so as to face
each other. One was occupied by lady
and the other by Chinaman.
Evidently the lady did not relish the
presence of the Chinaman. She explained
to him that she wanted to take the cushions
and their frames and place them length
wise across from seat to seat John said,
"All rightee,' and got out in the aisle while
she proceeded to lie down on the bed thus
improvised, with her head resting on her
valise. She supposed that the Chinaman
would take the hint that the lady wanted
to rest in the space usually occupied by
four persons. But John at once proceeded
to crawl in and stretch himself by her side,
with his head on little bundle Of his own.
"The Chinese are an immtative race,
and likely to do as others do, you know.
The lady, as soon as she discovered that she
had hedfellow, got up a little wildly and
started for the next car, to the infinite
amusement of the passengers, who had
been watching the little scene with some
interest. John took no notice of the fun
he had created, but went to sleep with the
whole bed to himself"

DELAYS ARE DANGEROUs.-If this axiom
is true respecting the ordinary affairs of life,
still more obviously is it so as regards the ex-
igencies of approaching disease. Unques-
tionably Yet how many neglect to practi.
cally recognize this plain truth when health
is in the balance. OF the many premonito-
ry symptoms of disease a hacking cough is

superior efficacy and freedom from nauseous

for it. Sold by all druggists. Principal

The PRESIDENTS SALARY.-The House
committee on appropriations in the legisla-
tive and executive appropriation bill only
provide $4,000 for the salary of the Presi-
dent, and accompany it with a provision
repeating the section of the revised statues
which increased the salary to $4,000. 1t
Will be remembered that the Senate at this
session failed to pass over the veto of Presi-
dent Grant the bill restoring the salary to
the old figure, although it passed both
houses by majority vote. 1t is likely that
the provision as it stands now in the appro.
priation bill will be agreed to, and the next
President will have to be content with S25,
900 per annum.

INTENSE COLD IN RUssIA.-Thc cold in
Russia has been more severe this winter
than in l53 years. In St. Petersburg, on
December 80, the thermometer fell to 32
deg. (Reaumur) below zero. Several cab
men were frozen to death on their seats,
and cats, pigeons and sparrows were found
dead in the streets. Large fires were kept
burning at night by the police for the
benefit of the public. At Moscow the Grand
Theatre was closed for want of audiences,
the people being afraid to venture out into
the cold.
