The PASSAGE of the Bland silver bill,
should it receive the signature of the
President, will be the most cheering sign
of coming prosperity. 1t win settle the
question of government finances on a
fair and honorable specie basis, such as
the country enjoyed before thewa of the
rebellion, and confidence will be restored
hard money will be more plenty, (by that
we mean gold and sllver) and labor will
be revived. With plenty of gold and sill
yer in their vaults the banks will be ena.
bled to resume specie payments more
easily, and they will also be able to dis,
count more freely. Should the bill be
defeated, then will come surging tide
of politics, in which all kinds of parties
will enter the arena not the least o.
which probably will be the Greenbacl
party with the "Rag Baby" resurrected
which three years ago the now singl,
standard gold advocates viewed with sucl
horror, Notwithstanding their recent con
version to it, and frequent declaration
that it is worth more than the silver.

The flutteriDg and squirming of the
members of the notorious Louisiana
Returning Board, their desperate at
tempts to avoid arrest and their threats
to make damaging exposures if the gov
ernment at Washington does not pro-
tect them, evince something very diff
ferent from conscious innocence. Why
should they be so terribly scared if they
are not guilty ? In their desperation
they assume two perfectly selt-contra-
dictory positions. They asseyera,e
their innocence in one breath and de-
clare that their attempts to escape a
trial proceed from their dread of a Jury

MEN are not elected to Congress, as
some gentlemen think, to represent their
own views. If one man may say in the
House he win represent his own convic-
tions and not the platform Of his party
who elected him and sent him there, so
may all the rest say SO; and what kind of
representative government would that
be? Political platforms are made to
bind those elected on them as well as to
bind those who form them. ryH 4

THE VofE IN THE HousE.-Mr. Will
hams, of Delaware, yesterday voted
against the Matthews resolution to pay
the bonds in silver. The vote was 189
ayes to 79 nays-eleven more. than two
thirds. An analysis of the vote ON the
Matthews resolution shows that thirteen
States voted solidly for the resolution,
casting 105 votes, while, only four States,
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and
Rhode Island, casting thirteen votes,
voted soidly against it. OF the seventy
nine negative votes New York furnished
twenty-five, or nearly one-third of the
entire number. Outside the Eastern and
Middle States there We're but thirteen
votes against the resolution. Butler, of
Massachusetts, and Phelps, of Connect
cut, are the only two New England men
who voted aye. Garfield is the only Ohio
member who voted against the resolu-
