TEXT" A standard dollar contains 412
grains OF silver, and is good for 100 cents.
\ trade-dolar contains 420 grains 0: silver,
and is worth only 50 cents. The dollar CT
4l2 grains is a legui tcndsr': the dollar
OF 420 grains is not a legal tender; and
though it has y grains more OF silver in it,
is not worth as much as the other dollar by
ten cents This difference, with the reason
for it patent 10 every iaan i'll the commu-
nifty, makes no Impression on the Stolid

COMMENT" To every one who is not q
hopiess victim Of the Z, fiat monomonia it
must be apparent that sCongress has been
no more successful in creating value out OF
nothing in this case than it was ia 1902 and
1884, 1t has declared, in substance, that Il
silver dollar should be receivable the same
as q gold dollar in payment OF duties on
imports. Inasmuch rs the payment OF du-
ties on imports is the only domestic use for
gold, except On Tie Pacific slope, there is
no reason why it should be al premium
oyer the silver dollar SO long rs there are
not enough silver dollars atloat to serve for
payment Of duties. After we have silver
dollars enough for this use, and some to
spare, there will be no further gold receipts
into the treasury, and after resumption the
gold reserve will be, rapidly drawn down.
When it has been so far reduced as to COM
pei The treasury to rely upon silver for the
redemption OF greenbacks, then there vii!
be gold premium at once, and it VIII be
plainly seen that Government has no power
TO make 50 or 80 cents worth Of silver equal
70 100 cents in gold. Chicago Times.

ABos.or, yicu Oft.

From the Boston Hefad.I
!. Randolph Tucker, OF Virginia, is per-
hans The, ablest representative from any
southern Stare in the lower branch OF Con-
eress. He has Just been renominated on u
Platform OF retiring the nationaibank cir
culation and the repeal OF the tax on the c,r-
culation OF State banks. In other WORDS,
he agrees with Mr.. Thurman as far as ne
poes. and adds the restoration OF the state
banks in the southern States. There IS Il
,Inrue demand for State banks in the soatf-
ern States which will find strong express
sion in the next Congress, butiWe do not see
how the southern Democrats can hope TO
effect both the substitution OF greenbacks
for nationaI-hank notes and the reEeai OF
nil restrictions on State-bank issues. 10
demand both at the same time is to demand
4 sudden and overwhelming imitation OF the
currency, which would upset all values and
utterly destroy the present prosperity OF the
country. 1t looks SIS il this demand Tor
State banks in the South would react in Ia
yor OF the national banks in the country at
large. and thus tend to prevent the carrying
out OF the scheme OF substituting green
backs for bank notes, TO which Thurman
and other western Democrats have fully
committed. themselves. The intlatonists
have rarely failed thus far to aid their cppo-
ncnts in defeating them, and, by demand.
ing an issue OF more greenbacks and local
wildcat scrip ut the same time, they VIII
still further embarrass their movement.

correspondence Of the Richmond Dspatch.l
SEPTEMBER l., 1873.
Some excitement was caused here yrster-
day morning By the report that whole
family Of people had been seized with the
vcllow-fercr uIrer the cars left Charlotte, \.
| c.. and had been put Off at the Danvillc de-
pot. The excitement disappeared, however,
as soon rs the truth was known. The truth
was that Mr.. Johnston and family, resi-
dents Of New Orleans, had escaped from
that city soon after the ycllow-tever appear
ed there; had, in one way and another,
worked their way to Atlanta; had had the
| fever there, and got well OF 1t about fIiteen
DAYS AGO, and had set out for Richmond,
where Mr.. and Mrs. Johnston once lived
and had friends, and were put off at this
| to buy tickets to Richmond. DR.. w. l..
Robinson, health officer. soon learned the
state OF the case, had them provided for,
and sent them OFT with tickets for Richmond
last night.
The family OF Mr.. Johnston consists OF
his wife and two little girls-nne OF them
five years OF aye, the other about three.
They say that they left everything behind
them when they came away from New Or
lcans, and had to get out on foot, the city
being under quarantine orders, ana that
they had walked most Of the way to Al
lanta From Atlanta transportation was
furnished them to Charlotte, n. G., and ut
Charlotte they were provided with tickets
to Danvile. They say, furthermore, that
while they were sick in Atlanta they had
kept their sutlcringS concealed from every
body for reasons good to themselves, and
that Mrs Johnston had taken their cases in
hand as they became sick. one after the
other. and treated them without assistance
from other people
This morning DR.. w. l.. Robinson,
health officer publishes a card. in which he
saws >. | found that the whole family had
had the fever and been convalescent more
than fifteen days. There can be no pcssi-
bic danger OF the disease being contracted
from them now, and there is no reason for
apprehension whatever. They did not
leave the depot at all during their stay

Mr.. E. S. Mccarthy, of the Auditors

Our PUBLIC SCHoOLs.-If there was ever
an illustration OF locking the stable.door
after the horse had been stolen it Will be
found in a retrospect OF The management OF
our public-school fund in Virginia. When
the misappication of this fund was hrst
announced we protested against it, and
urged the Legislature to take immediate ac-
ton to protect the rights and interests OF
the children OF the Commonwealth. Then
the subject was regarded as OF but little
Importance. No one seemed disposed to
move in matter involving only some few
hundred thousand dollars, and thus the
misapplication has gone on until it has
reached over million OF dollars; the
schools arc without money, and the whole
machinery OF education Is about to be
stopped.
Now howl comes from every part OF the
State: Teachers must be paid, books must
be bought. and incidental expenses are TO
he met. Who is responsible for this great
wrong against education and the violation
OF the State Constitution? The answer may
be delayed, but our Legislature and all
others connected with the foul wrong must
answer these questions to an outraged,
hcavily-taxed people, Norfolk LedJer.

GENERAL BUTLEE'S PLATFORM.-,As Gen

ton, whether cultivated or not, TO the end
that the land monopol;st in the future may
be held in check, and that the public domain
may be preserved to the actual tiler OF the
soil.
Farmers would thus have TO pay as much
on untitled rs on TILED land. The object is
to force them TO sell all they can't cultivate.

plank? Or this, from the same platform:

washington Republican, MIR. Murch,

I" boss stone-cutter," who once boosted that
he never owned an inch OF real estate in his

illustrated by his disregard of party discir-

The East.

The East. a.
We should hardly think there Is civil
lied nation on earth that can find anything
especially gratifying inthe last settlement
OF the Eastern question" unless it be Aus
tria. The people OF England cannot lind 1t
in their hearts to be pleased at settlement
that consigns Christian States to domin'
lon which they fight against rather than
obey. 1t is not unlike the scene OF distrl-
butins the game killed in a German prlncely
I:hunt among the Fat and greasy cooks to be
prepared for royal qualification Even
cooks have their battery, and we have seen
the batteries playing upon the victims, the
Bulgarians and Montenegrins, etc. Ihey
do not want to be cooked, and protest; but
their rUasters declare that this is lodging
the question. It's ordered that they must
be scrvcA for royal qualification, and the
batteries continue to play, and in time all is
quiet, andsthe kitchen smokes with fra
GRANGE OF ths game.
This is what is called settling the Eastern
question. IL IS certainly not a settlement
in the line OF christianity and beneheence
to civilization.
