The Cincinnati Chamber Of Com
merce last week passed the following
resolutions
WHEREAS, The effect os the Re
sumption Act is, in the opinion Of
this Chamber, working unnecessary
hardship to the industrial and fnan-
cial interests Of the country, creating
apprehensions of depression and dis
aster, and believing that the Gov
ernment can make no adequate prep
aration for the resumption and main
.tenance of specie payment at so early
a date as fixed by said act, and that
with silver remonetized, the public
debt properly funded, and the exer-
else of a rigid private and public
economy, we may safely await the
time when natural causes and health
full conditions shall indicate a date
when resumption should be enforced
by law; therefore,
ResoIyed, That the National Board
of Trade respectfully recommend to
Congress such modification of the
Resumption Act as shall postpone
the time of its enforcement.
This no doubt expresses the views
of a majority of the business men of
the West, and it is very probable that
the date Of resumption may be post
poned beyond Jan. 1st, 1879.

To Tourists.

No portion of the continent Of America
presents so much of grandeur, beauty and
marvellous interest to the Tourist as the
famous Rocky Mountain region Of East
ern Colorado, in the vicinity Of the beauti-
full City of Denver. The magnifcence Of
the mountain scenery IS cqualed only by
that of Switzerland, and many Tourists
from abroad have pronounced Colorado
scenery superior even to That Of the Alps.
The popular resorts in the mountains,
famed alike for their grand surroundings
and their magical waters, are daily becom-
inc recognized as the most deLigbJlH in
America for either health or recreation.
Hundreds Of people, tired Of the resorts Of
the East, are going to spend the summer
in the grand old Rocky Mountains amid its
charming parks, majestic snow-clad peaks,
grand caBons, clear sky and magic atmos-
Dhere. The popular Kansas Pacific Kali
wav. with its steel rails and automatic arr
brakes. is the favorite Tourist Route, and

The LEBANON GAZETTE is the title
of a large and handsome new Repub-
lican paper, just started at Lebanon,
Ohio, by our old friend, w. H. P.
Denny, formerly Of the Circleville
Union and Wilmington Journal.
Mr.. Denny published the Lebanon
Star over twenty years ago, and now
returns to Lebanon after his long
absence, to re-engage in the newspa-
per business. Of course, with his
long experience and ability as an ed
itor, he will make his new venture a
success, if the Republicans of Warren
are able to support two Republican
papers, but of this we have our
doubts, and the old Star is too good
a paper and has too strong a foot
hold to be easily displaced. We are
glad to see, however, that Bro. Den
ny emphatically disclaims any de-
sire to run out" the Star, and hope
they may both receive a paying sup

TOWN SIrRsCRIRERS.

Well, then, if greenbacks are as
good as coin, why redeem or retire
them at all ? As we must have a
paper currency why not have green
backs entirely, in place of National
Bank paper The greenback costs
nothing, while National Bank paper
is based upon bonds drawing inter
est. Hence, why not wipe out Ma
tional Banks, redeem the bonds
upon which they bank with green
bucks, and thus have a costless pa
per currency as good as coin Can
you see any harm in that ? Brown
Co. News.
We will briefly anwer your ques-
tions in the order they are put:
l. "Why redeem or retire them
(grernbacks) at all ?" Because they
are simply promises to pay" money
issued by our Government, as war
measure, in order to carry on the
war, and having answered the pur-
pose for which they were issued, the
Government is in honor bound to re-
deem them as soon as possible.
2. "Why not have greenbacks
entirely, in place of National Bank
paper Because in the first place,
t ere is a positive provision in the law
authorizing the issue of greenbacks,
that the amount in circulation shall
never exceed fo1sr hundred millions.
Does brother Leeds wish to "con-
tract the currency" to that amount,
by abolishing the National Bank
notes Because further, we do not
want another United States Bank
established. The Supreme Court has
decided that the greenbacks we're un-
constitutional, and were only justified
by the ''war power" of the Govern
ment. It sounds strange tohear Dem
ocrats, who denounced the "green-
back" when they were first issued,
as worthless rags, now advocating
their adoption in preference to any
other money.
8. "Why not wipe out National
Banks" &C.? Because, to ''wipe out
the National Banks" interviewer as
they are with the whole business of
the country, would be simply impOs-
sible, without at the same time "wip-
| ing out" four-ffths of the business
men of the country, who are indebt-
ed to the National Banks. Has
brother Leeds ever thought what
would be the effect of all the Nation
al Banks suddenly closing up their
business and demanding payment Of
their loans and discounts within SO
days? Talk about contraction" and
panics Should such a thing as that
be attempted, the country would see
a panic to which that of 1878 was
mere chid's play.
We might give other reasons why
the "wiping out" of the Nationa
Banks is impracticable, but The
above is sufficient.

''The Adams Co. New Era, the new
Republican paper in West Union,
Adams county, has made its appear
ance on our table, and is a very well
printed and we'll conducted sheet, as
it could not fail to be under the ed
itorial management of our old friend,
G. E. Irwin, formerly of the Ports
mouth Republican. It is a pity that
some arrangement could not have
been made to unite the interests of
the "Scion, the old Republican pa
per, with those of the 'New Era, 3"
so as to have but one paper, as there
is certainly not sufficient patronage
for t,oo Republican papers in Adams
county, and we predict that brother
Irwin will find it so before he has
tried it a year.

The rush of so many people to
California is producing terrible re-
suits out there, and persons Of sense
had better take warning from the
following, which we clip from the
California correspondence OF the
Graphic. It says:
"The days of darkness have truly
fallen upon this territorial foOtstOOl.
Hunger, gaunt and grim, stalks thro
the land which only a few months
ago filled the Biblical description Of
flowing with milk and honey.
Hundreds, aye, thousands, Of late ar
riva's from the East are footing 1t
over the mountains of California
without a mouthful to eat except
that given to them by charity not q
place to lay their head except nm
der the unobstructed canopy OF
