The Late Canvass In the Sixth
nfSfrioS

Editors Dispatch: am very glad to see
that Mr.. Patteson, in one brief sentence, In
his card recently published in the Dispatch.
disclaims certain Tendencies which arose
during the latter days OF the contest between
himself and Mr.. Tucker. No generous
friend OF the latter would desire not to
think well OF Mr.. Patteson, or TO withhold
from him any deserved commentator. A
noble mind will not triumph over the fall Of
a defeated adversary, but will praise ali the
honor and truth which he displayed in war
fare, especially in political warfare. which
brings with it so many temptations to de-
part from the paths OF veracity and to de-
scend to unworthy and ignoble methods.
was not convinced by Mr.. Patteson's
logic, but I was pleased with the
dignity and courtesy which he displayed
while engaged in debate with Mr.. Tucker
qualities which in Mr.. Tucker, when all
the circumstances Of the canvass are con-
sidered, were indeed most conspicuous.
Forming my opinion Of Mr.. Patteson from
" hat I saw and heard Of him in the
speeches of one meeting between the two
Candidates, he impressed me as gentle
man, and am therefore prepared to be-
lieve his statement that the attacks on Mr..
Tucker, so different from any that fell from
his lips, were not to his liking, ana would
have been disowned by him il the time had
not been so short between their publication
ana the election. These were certainly
reckless to a degree that could not benefit
any cause. am no politician, but after some
opportunities OF observation in many very
warm seasons Of political strife, can truly
say that have never known any candidate
for public Office more misrepresented than
Dir. Tucker was; nor one who is at the
same time, for genuine honesty, sincerity,
and patriotism, more worthy OF the public
confidence. Ii the gentlemen who conduct
the Richmond Wing had been residents OF
this district am sure they could never have
lent their columns to the circulation Of re-
ports and allegations SO utterly at variance
with the facts as most Of those which were
sent hence to their office. It is to be hoped
that the writers believed what they said,
and now that the war is over, let that be
conceded; but the editors OF the Wing
will not need to live long to see, and as L
believe to confess, that there was remark
able halIucination and obscurity OF mind in
the right beholding of things somewhere.

National {, Finances.

The Congress that meets to-day VIII MOI Do
{ mr. nrrohah1v have time for any elaboration OF
financial matters. Any policy when en- may
present the question Of material change 10
s;nanea will require too much consideration,
I and nroyoke too much opposition fos
speedy action.
Neither the proposition to substitute
.rcenbacks for national. bank notes nor that
OF abolishing national banks can make any
headway. Nothing can be done With them,
and there are local and personal measures
that a great many congressman will not al
low. to be forgotten. J,
Congress will, with one accord, alto"
finance comparatively TO rest, and viii "a't
to see the result OF resumption. Ihat hiea-
spre canDo. be avoided, and the best course course
Of the opponents OF the policy is TO lei
what they cannot prevent take its way.
Undertaken when it may be, 1t Will be
found most difficult to abolish the national
banks and to substitute Treasury notes or
sreenbacks for national-bank notes. IL IS
hard TO make wholesale changes in banks
and paper-money. II Congress found no
difficulty in voting for law 10 SUBSTITUTE
Treasury notes for natioual-bank notes, the
process OF the substitution would De SLOW,
and troublesome. It could not be hurried,
while it would unquestionab!y be attended
with pubic inconvenience and pressure.
But the present Congress will do nothing
making any change OF radical character
in finance. They may and should make the
Government money receivable in all dues
to the Government. 1t would seem 10 pe
hardly necessary, since after the ISL OF
January greenbacks and gold must be nam
tanned at par with each other, and there
fore will be received without dlscrimina-
ton by the Government.
Yet it would be good thing for the
Government to abandon altogether the idea
that Government may decline to take its
own paper N payment OF debts due to II.
The requiring OF gold in payment OF dulieS
has been scandal which it would be well
for the Government to wipe out.
Should the Congress have time to pass 1t a
general interest law would be most saiu-
tary one. We hope that, at least, will be
done.
We take occasion to suggest measure
that will tend to straighteu lines and impart
casc-that the national banks shall be al
lowed TO maintain their redemption fund in
silver instead OF greenbacks, as now re-
CURED. OF course VIC contend that the Con-
greSs ought to make gold and silver coins OF
equal relative value, by ascertaining what
this is and fixing it. But the use OF silver
should be increased so that it viii! perform
its useful and just part in maintaining spe-
cic-paymeuts and impartng visor and life to
enterprise and industry.
We may hope for some good from Con-
Srcss in the way OF legislation on minor
questions, but we have no apprehension
that any radical charge can be effected this
winter in the matter Of national finances.

there is more profit. A dry warm

farmer in Washington township
thinks he has discovered the true
cause of smut in wheat. lie informs
the editor of the Waynesboro' Record
that it comes from seeding the ground
with wheat that had been harvested
before it was ripened. lie has been
putting this theory into practice for a
number Of years ana he tells US his
grain has been free from smut, except
one year, when he had not enough Of
the we'll ripened seed and took sever
al bushels of the more early harvest
ing, and of the latter seeding had
plenty of smut, the other being en-
iiirely from 1t. This would seem 10
be pretty conclusive evidence of the
o.lreotncs. OF his theory.
