ANTICIPITING RESUMPTION.

WASHINGTON, July ls.-The opinion Of the
Attorney General. not yet presented in writing
but expressed verbally at recent Cabinet moet-
ing. that resumption could not be legally at
tempted before Jan. l. 1879 is likely to prevent
earlier action by Secretary sherman; but ho
has had under consideration recently several
methods by which it is believed the circulation
OF coin would be promoted. and some Of the
steps toward resumption shortened. One Of
these is the payment Of somo Of the specie OBJ
legations Of the Government in gold dollars and
quarter eagles. The premium ON the first men
toned Of these coins is too small to be
calculated. and IL they were placed in circulation
they would remain there. Al the same time tho
presence Of gold coins in general circulation
would draw from private repositories the

A HEAP OF HISTORY.

1--WE have made a heap of history
such as it is" So wrote Kellogg to Leet
in the midwinter Of 1877.
Kellogg was right. He and his con-
federates. with the aid of the visiting
statesmen, did make history-such as il
was.
There have been several gloomy wins
ters in our annals. The Valley Forge
winter was one to recall more than one
in time of the civil war. But none OF
these was so gloomy, none so perilous to
liberty, as that winter of 1877, which saw
the Constitution set aside, the will and
choice of the people overridden, and a
defeated candidate counted into the of.
flee of George Washington, of Andrew
Jackson, and of Abraham Lincoln.
Kellogg's brag, for once, is fully borne
out by the facts. 1t was the work done
by him and his Returning Board, the
Republican visiting statesmen aiding
and abetting, that made the events Of
1877 possible. Insignificant and worth>
less as this ex stable keeper from Peoria
is, no future American historian will be
able to avoid making mention of him
for he was an actor in the plot-worse
than Arnold's treason, worse than Burr's
conspiracy-which foisted upon the coun-
try Fraudulent President.
"A heap of history"-yes, But history
that will hereafter crimson the cheeks of
American schoolboys, as they it, with
bushes for the weakness of their ances~
