NOT GOING BACK ON SILVER,

1t was stated in Monday mornings
REGISTER that most of the banks of this
city had declined TO receive the Mexican
dollar at par. Upon this the idea has
got out that. the banks have concluded
to not take silver In sums
above SIS except at a discount. This is
not the case. Silver is full legal ten
der in this State for all purposes, and no
bank of the city is at all likely to attempt
TO repudiate or dishoDor it.
On the 22d day of February lsst-the
anniversary of WAsHrNaToN's blrth' oy
the way-the West Virginia Legislature
passed ian act to make the silver coin
issued by the United States government
legal tender within the State OF West
Virginia" and Governor JACOB placed
his official approval to the bill on the
same hsliowed day. The full text OF the
act is in the following words:
Be 1t enacted By the LEGISLATURE o. HeS'
Virginia:
/. That tho silver coin issued by the
government OF the United States shall be
legal tender for the payment OF all
debts heretofore or hereafter contracted
by the citizens of this State, and the
same shall be received in aynent OF all
debts due to the citizens OF this State
and in satisfaction of all taxes levied by
the authority of the laws OF this State.
Approved February q, lS77.I
1t will be observed that the silver coin
of the United States is q legal tender for
the payment of al debts and for all
taxes. This is good enough. We guess
no citizen of this city or State will de-
cline to receive silver, even II some one
should attempt to dump cart load OF II
into his coal bin.

CousntnptfOn Cured.

An old physician, retired from prac-
tice, having had placed in his hands by
an East India missionary the formula OF
a simple vegetable remedy, for the
speedy and permanent cure of consump.
ton, bronchitis, cstarrh, asthma, and all
throat and lung affections, also perma-
nent and radical cure for nervous debill-
ty and all nervous complaints, after hsv-
ing tested its wonderful curative powers
in thousands of cases, has felt it his duty
to make it known to his suffering fellows
Actuated by this motive, and desire to
relieve human suffering, will send, free
of charge, to all who desire it, this recipe
IN German, French or English, with full
directions for preparing and using

NOT $50 BAD ASTHAT.

In the last issue of the Fsyette Enter
prise there is a lengthy editorial on the
defslcation Of Sheriffs. The article states
that detaulting Sheritfs owe the State
100000, which will probably never be
collected; that Sherifis and their bonds
men are in the habit of dishonesty plsc-
ing their property out of the reach of the
law, in order that they may steal in safe
ty, and then snap their fingers at the
Auditor and the State.
On the authority Of State Auditor
MILLER we give the following answer:
The amount due the State from Sheritis
which amount hiss been sccruing from
1861 until 1S72-is about 100000.
Even this sum is undoubtedly overesti-
mated, for many Of the accounts
were found to be not correct and large
sum must be deducted on this
account. Since the present admInistra-
tion came into office nearly $4,000 of
those old debts have been collected, and
in all probability 1.-The total amount will
be greatly increased. One claim OF $l5,-
600, especially, is in course of settlement
at this time. 1t is true that some portion
of this large Indebtedness will
never be collected, but that cannot be
helped at this late day. The sheriis and
their securities are as u class honorable
and just men, and 1t rarely happens that
either of them attempt to defrsud the
State; but still it would be good idea to
make official bonds from the date of
their acceptance liens upon the real
estate of the parties thereto" as suggest
ed by the Enterprise. The most of the
delinquencies are of long standing, and
in some of the cases tho hsrdships upon
the securities are great.

THAT DERE,

Some OF the Richmond papers have
been making a great noise about West
Virginia paying onethird of the debt.
Virginia has already repudiated the one
third which she claims was due from
West Virginia, and now she proposes
repudisting the other two-thirds, and yet
has the audscity to say We owe her,
Virginia reminds US Of the two darkeys
qusrrelling. One asked the other, add
you say l would stesl?" mo, l didn't
say you would steal, but 1 did say if 1
was chicken and you was in my neigh
borhood would roost ID. H."

THE TEMPERANCE MEETING.

Our temperance friends had quite a
jubilee at Washington Hall, last night
a sort of anniversary jubilee over the
inauguration of the Murphy movemen
in this city about year ago. The exer-
cises were interesting to those who at
tended, and the speeches were generally
moderate in language, dIgnifed and to
the point.
In more ways than one West Virginia
is one of the most temperate States in tho
Union. Her people are conservative in
all their habits, not given to excuses IN
sentiment nor action, nor to fanati-
cism OF any nature. Of course
there are exceptions to the rule-an
occasional black sheep in the flock,
There is a good deal of beer consumed IN
this city, but comparatively speaking,
little whisky. Taking the whole State
of West Virginia, there is q smaller
number of whisky saloons in it in pro-
portion to the population than any other
State from which we have reliable STA
tistics, and in like proportion there are
fewer arrests for drunkenness.
Ii may surprise some people who have
been accustomed to hear the superior in
telligence and morality of the inhsbi-
tants of Massachusetts continually
boosted of-where high schools, and tenn
persnce societies, and prohibitory laws
most do fourish-to know that West
Virginis's percentage of saloons
to population is nothing like
as great as thst OF the Old Bay State
Msssschu setts has over 5000 saloons, or
one for each 2Ss inhabitants. This is
for the whole State, cities, towns and
rural districts while the city OF Wheel.
ing has but one saloon 10 each 375 in.
habitants, and many Of the counties of
the State have few or no saloons. In the
State of Massachusetts,, last year, official
statistics shcw there were $4,000 arrests
for drunkenness; and many of the most
earnest advocates of the temperance
cause in that State are thoughtfully con-
sidering the question OF encouraging the
use of beer TO the exclusion Of whisky as
far as possible.
1t seems TO US that the Murphey plan
of proceeding, which has been adopted
by the temperance advocates of this city,
is the correct one. You cannot enforce
laws contrary to public sentiment First
create public sentiment in favor Of so
briefly and then you have small need for
egislation.
