Legislature OF Pennsylvania, which he
has held ever since, and now by dona-
tion inter viuos hands over to his
worthy son, the Don.
Simon has been Senator for over
thirty years, with intervals OF Interrupt
ton to enable him to fill the Office OF
Secretary of War when all the big con-
tracts were being given out, and when
displaced by Stanton he was sent
"A Minister to Russia, which he
found too cold and inhospitable
field for his favorite pursuits;
50 he hurried back to reclaim his
old seat In the Senate, which he has
occupied ever since. In this position
he has always proved q venomous par
tisan, q bitter sectionalist, an intense
devotee to Pennsylvania various and
selfish policies. and an efficient repre-
sentative of the jobbers, corruptionists
and contractors who have controlled
the politics of the Keystone State fer
fifty years past.
Let 1t not be imagined, however, that
this resignation of Simon has been
prompted by any change In the nature
of the man, or safety OF avarice and
greed OF power and pelf, or by any OF
those philosophic views and motives
which drove Diocletian to his cabbage
garden or Charles the V. to the Convent
of Yuste. Not even the feebleness. 81
great age has moved him to such self
abnegation.
Paternal pride. q desire to perpetuate
the Cameronian dynasty, has alone
prompted this abdication. His
oldest son, having so suddenly
concluded the first chapter OF bis
political career by the refusal
of Hayes to retain him as Secre.
tary of War, naturally hankered after
his fathers perpetual seat in the Sen.
ate, and grew impatient OF the great
longevity Of the sturdy old sire, whose
best and longest contract appears to
have been the lease of physical and po
litical vitality which he secured some
hfty years ago.
This son succeeds. A sturdy, self-reli
ant and energetic man, with all the
physical and intellectual qualities o.
| his father, and with some virtues which
he did not inherit from that parent
Despite some unfavorable indications
given whilst Secretary Of War, and
partisan Of the Grant administration
we have heard from persons who are in
innate with Don Cameron that he is
man of far more liberal spirit anc
broader views than his father, and tha
his course towards the South will be II
harmony with that Of Mr.. Hayes
whose nomination of Cincinnati he wal
largely instrumental In effectiag.

AN UNPRECEDENTED POLITICAs
EVENT.


remarkable incident has occurred in
the political world. The oldest, most In
yeterate and most avaricious politician In
this country has resigned the position OF
United States Senator. .This is Simon
Cameron, aged seventy-eight, but still
vigorous, lively and uncompromis-
ing in his long practiced virtues
of partisan fidelity and unscrupu-
lous tenacity in ways which he
has trodden for haR a century, all tend
ing to the advancement OF his political,
personal and family fortunes.
Simon is perhaps the last. he is GER
tainly the oldest, of that class OF poll
ticians which has always existed in this
country, who have made Of politics a
lucrative trade, capitalizing therefor
their partisan virtues and services, and
reaping rich rewards in the way OF con-
tracts, Jobs and partnerships with pub
lie officials having large sums to expend
and patronage to distribute.
With limited old fashioned school
attainments, without any adVan-
tages of education or training In
any profession, he embarked In
early manhood in this sort OF
political trading, and through pollti'
cal relations and influences managed &c
obtain large contracts for public works
i, in his native State, which, about nal
century ago, was seduced into, canal dig
cling and other public works tha
swamped the finances and credit OF tns
State and brought on her the reproacf
. Of repudiation, and made Pennsylvania
: the favorite target for the happies
\ sallies of the inimisable wit and satir
:, of Sidney Smith, and of the fiercest Oh
+ iurgations of foreign investors In all tn
e large capitals OF Europe. Blu
J. IL Pennsylvania was plunge
q into disgrace and discredit 3
Il these large and expensive publ
IL works, Simon's fortunes were enol
Il mously improved thereby. An
when there were no more sue
m profitable contracts in Pennsylvania
n Simon descended upon our CIT
e. and managed to bulldoze the first d
e. rectory OF the Canal Bank into glvin
se him the contract or supsrintendentshl

The Silver Currency Question.

WASHINGTON, June 6th.-Much COM
plant is made by bankers, merchants
and others that they are refused small
bills at the treasury in exchange for bills
of larger denominations. On inquiry
being made at the Treasury to-day it was
stated that no orders had been issued to
refuse small notes, yet when the official
who gave this information was asked to
give in exchange for ten dollar bill twos
and ones he declined to do so, and to all
such requests similar deelination is
made. This indicates that although no
formal order has been issued on the sub
ject, the Secretary of the Treasury has
introduced a line of policy intended to
force into circulation large amounts of
silver for change in the place of one and
two dollar greenbacBs. 1t is believed
in financial circles that the Secretary is
endeavoring to work up to the English
and French systems of doing away with
all notes of a small denomination, and
that he means to hold on to all the one
and two dollar notes that come into the
Treasury. The Bank of England issues
no note less than the denomination OF
f5, and the Bank of France none less
than so francs. The Secretary is said to
desire to retire and cancel all legal-ten-
ders under five dollars, and to increase
the legal tender of silver to ten or twen-
ty dollars, although heretofore he has al
ways opposed making silver legal ten
der beyond five dollars.
