SILVER CERTIFICATES.

The provision in the silver bill for the
deposit OF silver coin in the Treasury
and the issue of certificates therefor, is a
good move. These certificates Will circu-
late as money, and will have the sdvsn-
tsge of specie basis to rest upon. 1t
would have been still better if jones'
amendment had been adopted permitting
the deposit Of silver bars for like pur-
pose. The great reserves in the Bank Of
England are in bars; they are more
easily counted in this way and the ex-
pense OF coinage is saved. Coming for
any purpose except for small change is
clumsy and wasteful. Transfers are
mostly made by checks, at any rate, and
coin certificates are in every way more
desirable than coin itself.

TRE BaRON's BONES.
A Bit of Scandal Connected With the
Cremation Experiments.

The Philadelphia Times correspondent,
in his account of the Pitman cremation,
gives this bit of information concerning |
the bones of Baron De Palm:
There are many relics OF the Baron DE
Palms cremation about this place. IL
wish YOU had come few days sooner"
said one of the cremstors TO your cores
rondent, land I'd have given you some
VI the Baron's bones. l had a pockettul
of them, but I've given them all away
now. There were great many pieces
of bone lett in the furnace, after the ere.
nation, and l got lot OF them. To tell
the truth" he continued, "the Barren was
not reduced 10 ashes at all. All that was
left in the retort was little pieces
of bone" This statement is borne
out by the fact that DR.. LeMoyne has
bottle full of the Baron's remains in his
office, and they are by no means dust or
ashes, but small pieces OF bone. In re-
spouse 10 squestion as to the disposal OF
the coffin in which Baron De Palm
reached Washington, one OF the tiremen
OF the De Palm cremation assured your
CORES pondent thst he had himself kicked
the coffin to pieces and burned 1t on
brush heap on Gallows Hill. at didn't
amount to anything" he said. "They
said it was rosewood, but it was only
pine painted like rosewood. The outer
box" the 1iremsn continued, "is in DR..
LeMoyne's barn and used as feed box.
| am certain about this, and no mistake,
for put oats into it many a time" Soon
after the burning of Baron De Palms
body Mr.. James Wolf, the cremsting fire.
man, produced an amateur play IN this
town and also in Csnnonsburg, a neigh
boring village, founded on the cremation,
the furnace scene, with the showing in
and blazing up of the body, being one
of the principal attractions. 1t is said to
have taken wonderfully. Mr.. Wolfe
says that he asked DR.. LeMoyne for the
De Palm coffin to be used in this play,
but was refused, and hls partner in the
firing business subsequently kicked it 10
pieces and burned it.
"Thst cremation shsnty," said Mr..
Wolfe, "won't stand in this town much
longer. l doubt whether it will stand
long enough to cremate LeMoyne.

Mr.. HEWITT explsins away very sat-
isfsctorily the charges made against
MessIs. GIBSON, TUCKER and LAMAR by
the New York Sun, by showing that OF
these gentlemen, the first never held the
doctrine that President FERRY alone
could open and count the electoral vote,
while the others merely thought
that the constitution was capable
OF bearing such u construction,
but expressed no determination TO
support that view. Mr.. HEWITT denies
that this was the "unwritten history"
which he originally intended to give the
House, ard says that he conferred with
Mr.. Tucker SIMPLY to get the name
(which had slipped bis mind OF the wit
mes 9, PICKETT, through whom the pro.
posal Of WELLS to "sell out" had reached
him. This disposes OF what seemed at
first to be a very grave accusation.

THE silver bill was tho subject Of
conference among its friends in the
House, yesterday. Tom EwlNG is shop
ping mad" and declares he won't vote
for it. Several members do not like the
free coinage clause, but will vote for the
bill. BEN BUTLER opposed crowding
it through under the operation of the
previous question. Free discussion is his
motto. a few more days ofsuspense yet.

REPEAL OF THE RESUMPTION

The voting on the silver bill has de-
veloped the fact that forty.two Senators,
at least are opposed to any contraction
of the greenback currency, and would
probably favor the repeal of the resump-
ton act. 1t will be remembered
that Mr.. HERMAN offered an
amendment to the silver bill!
which proposed that the silver dollar
should be exchanged al par for legal
tender notes of denominations OF one
and two dollars, and that the green backs
SO received in exchange should be can
ccl!ed. Mr.. FERRY proposed to amend
by providing that such green backs as
we're received in exchange should be re-
Issued. This latter amendment, which
seemed to involve the whole question OF
resumption, received forty-two votes.
The repeal of the resumption set and
the substitution of greenbacSS, or gov
ernment votes, for national bank bills,
will be the mex! movement.

SPECIAL dispatches to some of the
Eastern papers express great confidence
that Mr.. HAYES will veto the silver bill.
Whatever else we may think of HAYES
VIC don't believe ne is donkey. No one
assumes that this bill violates any pro-
vision of the Constitution, and we
think no one doubts il would be irhmedi-
ately passed over his veto with emphasis.

NOTES OF TIE DAY.

SOMEBODY in New York has published
Colonel Ingersoll's lectures in pamphlet
form. The Colonel writes letter to say:
s'The best things l said are left out, and
the wors. things | did not say are in
several times" Therefore he protests
;ains! the publication.
Mrs. MYRA CLARK GAINES last plan
is to build, when she comes into her for
ture, mammoth hotel at Washington
for C)ngressmen and their families.
Rates of board are to be very low, so that
Representatives can have no excuse for
leaving their families at home; no board
er is to be out after certain hour, and
none may attend place Of amusement
save i'll the presence of his awful spouse.
THE returns are all in and it has been
ascertained beyond question that Man
chester, New Hampshire, has the meanest
woman in the United States. A Mrs
Plumpton, of that place, eloped with q
Mr.. Bean, few days ago. Bean left his
wife at a concert, and promised TO return
in q few minutes, but cleared out. This
was bad enough, but just waitl Mrs.
Plumpton left note for her husband,
telling him she would never return, and
asking kim to take good care of her aged
mother. Oh grave where is thy victory?
Oh desth where Is thy sting2
BILLY CHANDLER writes letter to
to the People, Democratic paper st
Concord, in which he says: 81 do not
doubt that Mr. Hayes was rightlully
elected and Is lawfully President. But
he appears to doubt this, and thinks he
can strengthen his tenure by abandoning
his own party and administering the
as Mr.. Tilden would have
done. Therefore Republicans had better
abandon HIM, and the Democrats accept
and embrace him, ss General John b.
Gordon and other rebel Democrats are
doing"
THE New York Erpr ess: The crems-
ton of the body of Mrs. Pitmsn, stWssh-
ingtop, Pa, yesterday, was an outrage,
not alone on humanity, but on common
decency. The gaping crowd of negroes
and loaters cracked jokes and uttered
ribald jests as the body was consigned to
the flames, and the husband and his
took the whole affair with
ccolneSs and indifference, Ration slism
snd materislism may go very far, but
they should stop at the boundary of fail
ing to pay respect to the dead.
"MARK TWAIN" is not exceeding
wroth with the mad wags who set saost
the story thst he was editor Of the Hart
ford COurGHt aud in training for the
Governorship. Though not SO indolent
as he WAS, he says that his habit of avoid
ing the indiscretion OF too much labor is
still pretty trustworthy. He has always
liked newspaper work, but not as a steady
diet. Many people, taking him to be
the editor of the COurdnt, write TO him
for it, an attention which
would be tlsttering did he not feel con-
virced that more people, under 3 similar
write to the publisher to stop
heir paper. AS for being Governor,
chief magistrate, though q
Dem ocrst, is the right man in the right
place.

REMOVAL FROM KEYsEK 10 PIED
MONT.

The Cumberland Ne,cs of yesterday
saws it is now fact that the terminus Of
the second division of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad is to be removed from Key
ser to Piedmont, and the work OF re-
moving portion of the coal machinery
at the former place was begun Wednes-
day. A large proportion of the populs-
ton of Keyser were railroad employees,
and it is feared the change will have q
very disastrous effect upon the place.
The cause of the removal is not pub
licly known.
