The Cincinnati Enquirer, of Saturday,
has brief editorial on the subject of re-
sumption, which, if we understand the
position of the editor correctly in the fol-
lowing paragraph, which we quote from
that paper, he is in favor of adopting the
Greenback system of currency to the ex-
clusion of a metallic currency
'FThe bother about the subject has been
considerable, and it all shows that the
system ,as the law now makes it. is wrong.
as all systems must of necessity be that
make coin the basis of a paper currency.
Had we nothing but a greenback curren-
cy based on the credit of the Government
exclusively, made legal tender for all
debts public and private, and receivable
for all taxes and customs, there would be
no trouble. The simplicity of the sys-
TEN would not permit of any clashing.-
There would be no adding to the bond
debt to raise coin with which to redeem,
no apprehension of combinations of banks
or brokers to run on the Government tol
coin, no danger of suspension being
forced on the Government, nor any fears
of a foreign war causing demand fol
gold, contracting our volume of eurren
cy."
We suppose this article is thrown on
as a feeIer for the Democatic party of thi
state, to see whether the Democracy arr

to contest the Congressional election il

We doubt whether the Democratic par
ty, as party, are prepared to adopt an!
system of paper currency that has not

qi.irer to undertake to commit forgery b.

TIE latest charge against John O'Con-
ner, late Chairman of the Committee on
Military Affairs and the Committee on
the Soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home,
is that he was, in 1869, tried and convict
ed in the State of Michigan Of stealing
S136 from a man while drunk, and sem
fenced to the Penitentiary, at Jackson for
three years. We suppose this matter will,
like the charge against him of desertion
and bounty jumping. be referred to a
whitewashing committee, and that art to
the height of its perfection will be prac-
ticed upon him, and that he will stand
before the world as monument of the
proficiency and skill of Democratic leg
islative whitewashing artisans.
O'Conner denies the charge of ever
having been in the Michigan Penitentiary
and says that the trouble has all grown
out of the fact of his looking like the fell
low who has been in the Penitentiary. If
he is not guilty of the charge he ought to
be exhonorated from the disgrace.

Last week we noticed the illness of Mr..
Scott Douglass and now we have to record
his death and burial. The funeral took
place from his late residence where a
large gathering of friends had assembled.
Miss Alice Crothers, who was niece
of Rev. S. D. Crothers, died in Springfield
on Monday last. Her remains were
brought here over the s., j. & P. R. r..
on Wednesday and were inferred in the
Old Presbyterian Church graveyard.
During the past twenty-one days the
eyes of our citizens have been turned to
the north, anxiously watching the near
approach of the narrow-gauge construc-
rion train. The notable event of that
time occurred yesterday, at the compile
ton of the road to this place. Hundreds
of our citizens focked to the place con-
templated for the depot, to witness the
arrival of the first train. We congratu-
late the present management of the road
over the success that has thus far crowned
their efforts.
