A WAsHINGToN special to the Cincinnati
Gazette of Monday says, Secretary Sherman
says he sees no reason for believing that the
Bland bill can be defeated. He feels confident
that two-thirds of each house favor the bill.
He thinks it possible that the Allison amend
ments will be adopted, but that would not
make much difference. He thinks that the
likelihood of the passage of the Bland bill is
BOT understood in New York. He is not sur
prised at the course Of the gold market. The
remonetizing OF silver would not affect it at
once All the silver that could be coined for
months would be used for customs, and it
would not reach the people to any great ex-
tent for several months. He says that as the
supply of silver increases, gold will wholly
disappear, and greenbaeks will gradually de-
preciate. lie thinks the silver men will be
greatly disappointed at the immediate effect
of reconciliation, and that the ultimate effect
will be to strengthen the paper inflationists.

THE crime of the Stanley Matthews resolu-
tion is complete at last, and passes into his
tory, carrying that name with il in lasting
disgrace. The House of Representatives yes
terday passed the resolution as it passed the
Bland bill-withuut word of debate; passed
it by vote of 1s9 to 70; gave it, with twen-
ty-fve members hot voting, within seven
votes Of the two-thirds necessary to pass the
Bland bill over the Presidents veto. The
same House gave the Bland bill 1853 to 134;
not voting, 90. This record shows, in the
first place, that the prophets who insisted that
members Of Congress would come back from
their holiday fortnight in finance less unanim.
GUS for silver, and that change of heart had
come over the House in particular, were wo-
fully wrong. The vote which was to prove
decline in the number Of silver men in the
House has been taken, and it shows that party
to be close on stwo-thirds vote, if not already
more than sure of it. With the decision of
the Senate seeming to turn on q single vote,
this is grave prospects indeed for the Ma
tional honor. But, leaving the Bland bill out
OF consideration for the moment, it is shame
enough to have it 60 out to the world that the
Congress of lhe United States, by overwhelm-
ing msjorities in both branches, has declared
that it would not te Tioiatlol OF its plight
cd faith to pay its debt in deprecated coin.
If no such result, as now seems more than
possible. should follow; if the Bland bill
should fail, after all, the disgrace of this de-
claration would yet rest upon the American
name. The honest men OF the country should
make it their business to resent it, and every
man who helped to bring it about should car
ry brand upon him for the rest Of his days
