Treasurer of the Chicago 4 Alton rail-

The ledger account in which this bill
appeared, also seemed to show that Tilden

tees of the company bonds and stock Of
face value of $8,000,000. Also that bonds
and stock to the amount of $l68,000 were
missing, and it is presumed were appro'
priatad by Tilden and Meyer to remuner-
ate themselves for their services as trus

WASHINGTON.

WAsHINGsoN, Oct. Is. The October
returns of the department of agriculture
place the average condition of the corn
crop at 96, an increase OF four over the
September average, which brings the 1g-
ures up to the August average, a condi-
ton OF three per cent. less than October,
1877. As the average has been but slight
ly enlarged, this difference may be taken
as a fair indication of the prospective yield.
The out-turn of the crop will not vary
largely from I,300,000,0Q0.
4 Wheat-The October returns do not
materially change the statistical aspects oi
the wheat crop, The yield on the whole
will be in advance of last year. and from
present indications will exceed 4GO,000.O 600
bushels.
Oats-A preliminary estimate, based
upon the October returns, indicates yield
somewhat larger than even the very fine
crop of 1877.

MONTREAL, Oct. l9.-The trial of the
Orangeman for unlawfully assembling last
18th of July closed yesterday. In conclud-
ing his charge to the jury Judge Ramsay
said there was no evidence whatever to
support the indictments. and they must
discharge the defendants. After few
minutes deliberation the jury brought 10 a
verdict of not guilty, The second case
then proceeded before a mixed English
and French jury. This charges the de-
fendart, David Grant, county master, first,
with subscribing to secret oath not re
quired by law; aud, second, with assent,
ing to an arrangement whereby secrecy is
maintained. Counsel for the prosecution
explained that this action was not brought
to punish Grant, but to settle a vexed
question for the protection of society at
large. The evidence was then proceeded
with, but soon brought to q stand-still by
witnesses refusing to answer questions
which might connect them with the Orange
Order, the decision having been given by
the judges iu Chambers that nobody is
compelled to criminate himself. Mr.. Car.
ter, for the prosecution then said it was
useless 10 continue the case, as the neces
sary evidence could not be given except By
Orangemen. The jury then returned q
verdict of not guilty. In answer to an in
quiry by Judge Ramsey, Mr.. Carter said
if bis clients would be guided by his ad.
vice the prosecution would be Withdrawn
1t is likely that action of damage for false
arrest will be instituted by the Orangemer
against the prosecution.

GreenbacKs aad Absolute Money.

The existing greenback, it may be claim
ed, is worth as much as a national bank
note of corresponding denominations, but
it is to be answered that the greenback, as
is exists, does not pretent to be absolute
money. 1t is promise of the United
States to pay money, and there is no sane
financial man who does not know that it is
promise to pay coin,o something that di-
rectly represents coin. A greenback is
good, and only good, because the country
accepts it as pledge of gold or silver,
The precious metals have been accepted,
the world over, as the basis of currency,
and when men talk about money they in-
variably talk about that which has its
basis in coined metals. A paper dollar
| always represents gold or silver dollar.
Throughout the long period during which
specie payments have been suspended in
the United States, the value of bank notes
and of greenbacks has been sustained by
the faith that ultimat1ly-sooner or later
every dollar would be redeemed or redeem
| able in coin. There was time when it
took two dollars in paper to buy one in
gold, and the gap between that period and
this has gradually been closed, as the GER
tsinty has increased that the promise upon
the face of the paper dollar would be re-
deemed. If the greenback were to be
| changed to-day, so that it would bear no
such pledge, it would become very cheap
| money indeed. 1t would hardly be worth
the paper it is printed on.
There Is no power on earth that can
leglsate value into paper. If paper does
not represent value, it is good for moth
lag, and no government can make it good
tor anything. The question of cheap
money, for the benefit of the laborer, for
instance, is as broad as it's long" II
money is good for anything, it will have to
be paid for In labor. The markets of the
world settle the values of ofmerchandise. We
may leglslate that every bushel of wheat
shall be worth five dollars. but our legisla.
ton will have not the slightest effect upon
the price. Wheat is wheat the world
over, and the price is regulated by the
great law of demand and supply. Money
is money the world over, and money is
gold and silver the world over, and every
article that man possesses and has for
sale will be regulated in its price by the
relation which it bears to some gold unit
in the markets of the world. Money can.
not be SO made that man can get some.
thing for nothing. It cannot be so made
that he can get it for less than the mar
ket price in labor. The idea that it car
be SO made is delusion and q snare O
