THE PUBLIc-SCHooL FUND.-There is much
complaint (and we think with reason) OF
the failure on the part OF the state o1hcialS
to make the apportionment OF the school
funds TO which we are entitled. Nothing
has been paid to the teachers in this county
since last winter, and then in portion
OF the county only 4 part Of what was
due them. A majority OF the teachers are
either ladies or other persons who are
dependent on their salaries for support !;
and it is hard that they should be forced
to wait for even the small pittance that
they are to receive, or to dispose OF their
claims at heavy sacrifice to persons who
can afford to wait. A large portion OF
the State taxes were paid in on the 1St
OF June; and yet, as we see in the Rich
mond papers, the Auditor states that it
is impossible to say when anything will
be paid out. We do not know who is
to be blamed; but we do know that great
hardship and injustice are wrought to the
teachers OF the county by this delay

such as we had during those Confederate
times 70 which the heart OF our neighbor OF

cotton-yarns at 4 profit, until finally the
whole OF the original sum invested by MIR.
Purvis, with the increase from successive
sales, was invested in one bale of cotton.yarn!

value kept going up in the market, while

This transaction illustrates as we'll rs any

the country with irredeemable paper money;

others who demand large issue OF green

Year.

These figures show that there is no con-
nection between the hard times and the
amount OF currency in circulation. In 1860
and 1861, when Virginia was prosperous il
ever she was, and when Richmond was over
flowing with wealth, the circulation OF the
country was only about one-third per capita
of what it was when the panic Of 1878 came
on. In fact, it is all nonsense to talk about
the want of currency in the country as the
cause of our troubles. 1t is the want OF
money in orr pockets. It is the want OF
capital Of our own-not OF currency in the
whole country. The amount OF currency
can be doubled any day by the simple pro-
cess of using it once oftener.

The Greenbackers and Nationals are be-
coming so formidable in some OF the west
ern States as to surround with uncertainty
the result Of the coming congressional cleo
tons there. 1t is not known from which OF
the old parties they. are drawing most
of their strength, and no doubt there will
be coquettins by both OF them for q fusion
with the new party. The fever for more
greenbacks has even reached the State OF
New York, and convention was held at
Syracuse last week, when strong resolu-
tons in favor OF greenbacks were issued.
The readiusters OF this State. to get rid OF.
the demands coming from various sections
of the Commonwealth for congressional
elections wNhout making reimbursement an
issue, have suddenly become the warm
advocates of more greenbacks, hoping that
while they are making the pot boil with TINS
issue some of the aspiring Lancasters
may rise to the top and float into Congress-,
Office being the supreme incentive Win
these Young leaders for the welfare they
manifest in the rights OF the 81 dear people,.
There are but few persons in Virginia VINO
do not favor a more liberal issue OF green
backs. hut how to get them into circulation
and where to limit their issue are questions
that have not been fully determined IN thelr
minds. The farmers OF Virginia would not
be pleased to see them invested in new rail-
roads through the western Territories, as
the railroads already completed there nave
attracted large share of foreign emisrants'
who. on the virgin soil Of the lands lying
by their side, have produced such heavy
crops Of wheat and corn as TO force prices
down so that it is no longer prohtaoie TO
farm in Virginia. Then the competing
railroads fostered by Government grants OF
land have not cheapened TRANSFORMATION to
market of the products OF virginia farmers
while they have materially aided in for
wardiug to market the products OF western
farmers at cheaper rates than obtain in Vir-
ginia. II the additional greenbacks pro-
posed to be issued for improvements are to
be literally spent in. making new railroads
ia Virginia, and in paying one half the cost
OF fertilizers, there would be some self-in-
tercst with our farmers in movement OF
this kind. but to spend the money, in order
to get it into circulation, on improve
ments distant from Virginia would en-
rich those sections to the hurt Of our people.

All the new iour-per-cent. bonds for
the sums OF $50 and 500 viii OF course pass
as currency.
II it be seid that most OF the above paper
bears interest, we add that the same is true
Of the JeFerSonian's statement.
On this point we add the following from
the Cincinnati Commercial:
The people should know thoroughly that
the fabric OF falsehood displayed by the in.
flationists and called by them the history OF
contraction yanishes when application
is made Of the fact that in order to show the
contraction they assert has taken place it ~
necessary to count Understanding notes as
currency. The notes bearing interest were
not intended to become part OF the circula-
ting medium. They were passed for few
days, but disappeared, because the interest
accumulation made them, as it was intended
to make them, too valuable to circulate. IL
the Inflationists may count the interest-notes
as circulation, they should count also the
four-per-cent. bonds, simply making a
slightly wider application OF their principle.
In either case the story that contraction has
caused hard times disappears.
