Counterfeit Dollars.

A new counterfeit standard silver
dollar has made its appearance in Chi
cago which is said to be well calcula-
ted to deceive even the very elect,
when they are not mindful. The cor
respondent of the Enquirer says of it:
"The receipts of the Sub-Treasury
were very large, and number of
standards which came in at the time
were paid out to pensioners. One of
this class of customers found on trying
to pass one of the dollars at a store on
State street that it was no good. He
returned with it to the Sub-Treasury,
and the Disbursing Clerk who had
paid it out along with others in q hur-
ry, gave the old lady a good one, and
put the counterfeit in his collection.
The general appearance of the piece
is very good indeed. Even acids will
not act on it. Weight, however, is
against il, the scales showing that it
has just seven-tenths Of the weight
which the standard dollar should have.
There are other minor defects, which
were ascertained after some little ex.
animation. 1t is a trifle thicker, for
instance, than the standard dollar, and
the milling on the edge is imperfect.
The figures in 1878, are also imper.
feet, having dots in each loop. The
same fault attaches to the p in Pluri-
bus, Unum. The bottom of the Plur-
ibus should be straight, but is slightly
curved, and the bottoms of many of
the letters in United States of Ameri-
ca, are slightly crooked and broken.
The counterfeit Is composition, with
heavy silver wash. The proverbial
careful tradesman and the astute beer
seller will need to eyince an extra
amount of caution, and give it wide
berth.

A CABLE dispatch announces the sus-
pension of the Caledonia Bank of
Scotland, which held four shares of
the City of Glasgow Bank as Trustees,
and all it's branches throughout Scot
land have closed. Great excitement
prevails throughout that State in con-
sequence of the suspension, and busi-
ness men are asking what will happen
next. The West of England and South
of Wales District Bank, whose chief
Office is at Bristol and having a large
number of branches in the West and
Southwestern counties, has also closed.
Its liabilities amounted to ST., 7,5OO, 900
with only$125, 900 cash on hand. These
are Institutions which had their found
ations laid on solid gold basis, and
their failure illustrates the danger of
trusting the creation of the currency
of q country to banks of issue.

"inscription" that changes a piece of
paper, in itself not worth a cent, into
q value of thousand, or ten thousand
dollars. II is its image and inscrip-
ton that changes lump of silver, or
of gold, outside of its value with man
ufacturers of these metals-into coin
current with the exchangers. But
this is large subject, and there are
few who can be made to comprehend
it.
The rescue of the country, however,
from being ground between the upper
milestone OF capital, and the neither
milestone CT labor, is to be found in
the plan proposed by statesmen of the
Ohio school. It's proponents are men
oflarge capital. Therefore they can
not afford to institute a policy des-
tructive of capital. But they are states
men, and politicians, in the best sense.
Therefore they know that capital must
not, too far, antagonize the wants of
those without capital"

A writer in the Springfield Repub-
lican tells the following story which
illustrates tho peculiar manner in
which Governor Hampton, OF South
Carolina practices intimidation among
the colored population. This writer
says that Hampton, when riding,
during the last campaign, among the
rice fields, had his carriage stopped by
q furious colored woman, who held
pine knot in her hand, and swore she'd
kill him. The Governor took a S.
note and handed it to the wretch. She
gazed at him and then at his money.
" Maema," he said, ''that is not to buy
your vote; women can't vote" "What
is it for p asked the stupefied woman.
4, as a child, slept many an hour in
my old colored nurses arms, and
fell kind for your race. I am your
friend, woman, but you do not know
it, Tears ran down thatswarthy face !;
she ran to the field near by with all
her speed, and led her husband back
by the hand. Man. she said, Cover
nor Hampton glib me dis SIS. 'Tis de
fust money 1 hab glib me since free
dom. Rebel or no rebel, God bless
him. If you don't vote for him, I'll
quit you.' Such is the man. He is all

The stalwarts" had hoped that
Hayes would take a new departure
and openly abandon the Southern pol
icy proclaimed and put in practice by
him in the beginning of his admins
tration, and that he would afford them
an opportunity to again haunt the
bloody shirt and rekindle tho flames
Of sectional hate and strife; but they
are sadly disappointed. He don't do
that, though he treats the subject very
gingerly, merely alluding to affairs in
the South in order to ask Congress to
make such examination as may be sp-
propriate to determine the validity of
the claims of members to their seats.
He also says he regards it as his official
duty to inquire into any violations of
law that may be committed, and, on
conviction, to punish the perpetrators.
No one will find fault with a faithful
and impartial discharge of that duty !;
but his researches in that direction
should be directed to no particular
section, and q full and fair investiga-
ton will show that there has been as
much corruption, fraud and intimida-
ton in the North as IN the South. 1t
is as much his duty to punish viola.
tions of the law in New York, Phila-
delphia, Cincinnati and Minnesota, as
in any city or State in the South. If
the Federal Govermont is to take into
its hands the regulation of the elec.
tions in the several States let the work
be faithfully and impartially perform
ed. The country has had surfeit of
sectional legislation and strife.

The origin of the Ohio Idea.

The Enquirer says: eve are told
that Daniel Eaton, of Trum bull County
Ohio, is the original Greenbacker, hav-
ing in 1916. thirty-:hree years ago,
petitioned Congress to emit S15O,O00,-
600 Of Treasury notes, based on the
credit of the United States, payable on
or before the 4th of July, 1865, and
made legal tender for all debts, fines
and demands arising from contracts
made after the 4th of July next, sc.
Mr.. Eaton is entitled to the credit
of putting the idea of Thomas Jef1sr-
son, to whom it originally belonged,
in the form he did in his petition to
Congress. In the writings of Thomas
Jefferson, published by Congress. (vel
vi, pages 14l to 1899, may be found
the greenback doctrine expressed by
that old Democratic leader, in these
| words:
"Bank paper must be suppressed,
and the circulating medium must be
restored to the patton, to whom it be-
longs.
"Let those among us who have
monied capital, and who prefer en-
ploying it in loans rather than other
wise, set up banks, and give cash or
National bills for the paper they dis
count"
The prominent idea in the foregoing
from Mr.. jefferson is that the issuing
of a paper currency for the country
belongs to the nation and not to the
banks. That is the "Ohio Idea" The
Government and not banks must issue
the paper money needed by the
country. This is what must first be
definitely and thoroughly established
as q foundation on which currency re-
form must rest. "Bank paper must
be suppressed, and the circulating me-
dunn must be restored to the nation
to whom it belongs" said the great
apostle of the Democracy, and that
sentiment is the foundation stone of
the greenbsck doctrine, and of the
Ohio idea. Banks there will be; they
are necessary agents of modern civil
ization; but let them bank on their
cash capital-their gold, silver and
greenbacks-andn not on their debts in
the shape of bank notes issued as
circulating medium. When banks is
sue the currency of country they
possess a commanding control Of the
business and commerce of the country.
T,hot abould MT he nermitfe6 hv a free
people. The Ohio idea is opposed to
banks possessing such power. The
Democracy follow Thomas Je1erson's
idea on the subject.

HAYES has full faith in the Republic
can financial policy and thinks an era
of unwonted prosperity is about to
dawn upon the.country in consequence
of it. He is confident that specie re-
sumption can be commenced on the
day fixed by law if no hostile legisla-
ton is attempted by the present Con-
gress, in which respect his wishes will
doubtless be gratified. While he hints
that his views have undergone no
change in regard to the reconciliation
of silver, yet he admits that silver has
its uses, and recommends that no new
legislation be undertaken on that sub
ject. This will hardly be acceptable
to Secretary Sherman and the cOnfed-
Grated New York National Banks,
who have undertaken the great work
of degrading the dollar of the dads'
and establishing gold as the only
standard and measure of value,all out

suffering. He said that the grand charity oflthe
North il sending down money and supplies TO
them in their sore distress had done more to re-
move the bitterness engendered by the war than
all the political measures combined which Con-
gress had enacted; that now the South realized
she was one part of nation of brothers and that
the time had come for putting aside all past
differences and for becoming once more a united
people. After several speeches the whole
assemblagc was seated at the splendid banquet
which had been provided, and until near mid
night the hours were passed in toasting, with
responses from Postmaster General Key. Sam
Randall and other dignitaries.

TIE Advocate, the large eight-page
Greenback paper, started by Mr.. Wal
ter Shupe in New York, and publish
ed at the ridiculous low price of 25
cents q year, has gone up the spout.
The circulation became immense, run
ming up into the hundreds of thous-
ands, but there is not q person of COM
mon sense in the country who might
a short-lived affair when 1t is consid-
cred that the subscription price did
not cover the cost of the white sheets
upon which the paper was printed.

else trying it. The noble Secretary has
demonstrated his ability to make the
most of little. Starting out as q poor
man, he has, in few short years, on
on an annual salary of 5000 became
q millionaire.

The Supreme Court of South Caro-
lima has dismissed the appeal in the
case of Congressman Smalls, of that
State, who was convicted of receiving
bribe in 1877 and sentenced to three
years at hard labor in the Penitentiary
and now nothing but the interposition
of the clemency of Governor Hamp-
ton will save him from the just penal
ty for his crime. This is another of
those Southern outrages over which
the Radical politicians are bowling so
horribly.

THERE were nine negroes in the
Forty-second Congress; seyen in the
Forty-third; four in the Forty-fourth ;
three in the Forty-fifth, and in the
Forty.sixth there will be none. And
is theAfrican playing out? TheRadical
politicians regard the fact that no me-
groes are elected to Congress from the
South as evidence of the hostility Of the
people of that section to the colored
race. Now if they are SO very friend
Iy to the negroes, why is it that in all
the States in which they have the
power no colored man finds place on
their ticket Or is elected to Congress /?
The negroes of the North who have
so long enjoyed the privileges of free
men are certainly as capable of filling
offici1l positions as those of the South
who have SO recently emerged from
the night of barbarism.

We surrender most of our first page
to the Message of Mr.. Hayes not be-
cause it is q document of great inter-
est or importance, but for the reason
that it is customary for papers of all
parties throughout the country to pub
lish these annual communications. 1t
came to hand last week when a
large part of the matter for our last
issue was in type. and our exchequer
was in too Strengthened condition to
permit us to send abroad and get it
in supplement form as many others
did.

A FEW years ago it was claimed that

A FEW years ago it was claimed that
the $4,000 salary allowed the Presi-
dent assinadequate to support the
dignity of the Office, and the compen-
sation was increased to just double
the amount. 1t would seem that Grant
has made a good thing out of it, for he
has been able to spend his time since
leaving the Presidential chair, travel
ing over Europe, wining and dining
with royalty.

BOB INGERsoLL can't and wont love
q God who is not lovable. He don't
want any coercion in the matter. And
now isn't it one of Roberts mistakes
that he don't apply this doctrine to
his politics as well as his religion. He
is not an admirer of Hayes Southern
policy but wants the bayonet and bull
let rule of the days of Ulysses. The
fact is it will be as impossible for the
Southern people not to respect q gov.
ernment that treats them justly and
fairly as for Mr.. Ingersoll not to
love Deity that is Just and good.

GARFIELD is of opinion that Grant
is the second choice of nearly all Re-
publicans. It really looks as though
he is the first choice of large major
ity of that party.
