6 European outlook is decide

TIE European outlook is decidedly
warlike. The English cabinet, since
the resignation of Lord Derby, is unan-
imous in making demands upon Russia
to which the latter cannot and will not
accede. Meanwhile, at the arsnals and
shipyards everything is hustle and
commotion; and, apparently, the
British lion is seeking another tussle
With the Russian bear. But bears
have, more than once proved them
selves superior to lions in the fitting
business. and. in this case, the lion
will not find in the bear of 1873 the
same animal which he found in 1856.
Both the English and the Russians
are endeayorIng to out-diplomatize
each other by making alliances with
Austria and Turkey, with the chances
i'm favor of the latter. Seemingly,
Gortchakoff is more than match for
Beaconsfeld; and it would certainly
not be strange if England were oblig-
ed to go into the contest single-handed.
Should this be the case, and should
the other European nations be satisfied
to look on quietly, the chances viii be
In favor of the Russians who. from the
geographical advantages of their po-
sition, woald present to the English
an almost invulnerable front. But,
time viii tell.

HOWE AND HIS SPEECH.

United States Senator Howe, of Wis
consin, after nursing his wrath for
several months, recently gave it vent

not like President Hayes nor the man.
ner in which that gentleman's admin
istration Is being conducted, and on
the 25th ult. he aired his grievances,
going some distance out of his way to
denounce Carl Sehurz, Secretary Of the
Interior, presumably because he was
thought to be the most vulnerable OBJ
Ject of attack in the Presidents Cabi-
net. 1t was about the time that Hayes
had an opportunity to appoint Howe to
Judge Davis vacant seat on the SUI
preme Bench and failed to improve it
that the Wisconsin Senator began TO
discover failings in the present admin
istration, and he has been preparing
for some time to give in detail his OBJ
servations. His speech is bitter at
tack upon Hayes and his adniRistra-
ton and was wholly uncalled for !;
however much Howe may dislike Pres
ident Hayes or his policy personally
he is not sustained in his remarks by
the Republican party of Wisconsin,a and
if his studied effort was calculated to
secure his election for fourth term
to the United States Senate it had bet
ter never have been made. There is
a lurking suspicion which amounts al
most to conviction in the minds of
many that Timothy o. Howe, of Wis
consin, whatever may have been his
ability in the past, has out-lived his
usefulness as United States Senator
from this State; he has been well dealt
by and it would be a graceful thing for
the old gentleman to "quietly and un-
obtrusively retire" from public life at
the close of his present Senatorial
term.

A SUBSCRIBER asks: ''Can prosperity
return to this nation with only $l4 per
capita in circulation If there is to
be more, will it be currency or coin =
There are, at least, $3.50, 000,0 900 of
coin in the United States; there are
also, in round numbers, $3.50, 900, 600
of greenbacks and about an equal
amount of national currency: making
a total of $3.50, 900, 600 of circulating
medium. This amount distributed
among forty millions of people, gives
more than $2l per capita. The report
of the Secretary of the Treasury for
| 1875, estimates the amount of more
than S27 per capita, nearly double
that mentioned by the questloner.
True, much of this is locked up; but
would not the locked-up capital findits
way ont of the vaults, if there were
really any great need of it /?
As to the second question, it is only
necessary to bear in mind that the is
sue Of the greenbacks is limited to
$500, 900, 900, and that, as banking I'M
der the National Currency act is not as
profitable as some people imagine, the
circulation of national currency is
not increasing; hence, the increase
must be in the direction of coin, and
| the immense production of gold and
silver abundantly insure such increase.
Over-productioa under false stimu-
lus, and wild and reckless speculation
brought on the hard times; returning
reason and a disposition to be honest
concerning the nations obligations
will start us once more in the direction
of prosperity. There will be circulat-
ing medium enough to pay the farmer
for his grain, the mechanic for his
days labor, the merchant for his SUI
gar, the publisher for his newspaper.
These $3.50, 600. 900 in gold, silver, pa
per, are, at best, only the ''small
change" in the commercial transaction
of the nation; and as we, in our inf
nitessimally small business transaction
scarcely ever lack for nickel or dime,
to make change, so the nation will not
| be at loss TO produce as much of this
/ s.small change" as is needed.
