or course something is known, in general
way, Of what went on behind the closed
doors. Everybody knew in advance that
certain topics would inevitably come up for
discussion such topics as the missionary
work " the Anglican churchcs the outlook
for an alliance. offensive and defensive, with
the Gree, Church; the spread OF scientific
skcpticism, and the like. There are other
topics, not less deserving 81 the anxious con-
sidoraton Of such body; whether they
were discussed. or even preached, in tho
Conference, Is at present matter of conjcc-
turc.
But talk, however learned or eloquent or
cdifying, is valuable only as it records and
justiilcs itself in practical. bcncnccnt re-
suits II is by this test that the Lambeth
Conference Of 1875 viii be- judged. Such an
asscmblage, composed Of men ~ years and
experience and learning. ought 60 leave n
visible and permanent mark on the world -
not merely on the little fraction Of the race
gathered into the Anglican fold. but on this

Indebtedness If the Conference does this,

Of Canterbury, did we'll in inviting his fell

the same, prices would necessarily fall
Thus, during the Revolutionary War the
| Continental currency became so discredlted
that prices rcckoncd in it were twenty fold
! those rcckoncd in specie; and among us
within Il year or two the prices Of cotton
| cloth and Of agricultural productions have
| fallen very scnsibly, owing to an excessive
supply, although no apprcciabe diminution
Of the currency has taken place.
Now. during the war, our circulating
medium became deprecated not only 10y
its increased volume, but also by wide
ly felt distrust Of its ultimate value. The
final result Of our struggle with the Con-
fcdcracy was in doubt almost to the very
last, and there were millions at the North
"a well rs at the South who believed
our success to be impossible. Tho re-
mark was freely made that our grecnbacks
would become waste paper, and that the
whole national debt would he rcpudiatod.
This, Of course, created an uneasy feeling in
regard to the value of all kinds of Govern
mcnt paper, and an cagcrncss to part with it
for other property which sent prices up to
the sky. On the other hand, SO many men
were withdrawn from labor TO recruit the
army. and SO many Of those that were left
at home were kept busy in manufacturing
arms, ammunition, clothing, and other war
supplies, that there was no surplus pro-
duction Of articles Of ordinary use
Everything combined to put prices up.
independently OF the excessive issue Of
paper. When the war ended, the demand of
the Government for goods and provisions
ended likewise, and all the industries con-
nectcd with military operations were an
initiated. Not only the disbandcd soldiers
but all the artisans who had bccn working
TO keep them equipped and fed, came into
the labor market in competition with the
other labor Of the country. This cause
alone would have produced fall In prices
had the currency been left untouched The
catastrophe was retarded by the railroad
building mania which eliminated in 1873, but
1t came at last.
1t Is quite evident, therefore, that those
who contend for an additional issue OF paper
money as an infalliblc remedy for the
present low prices OF land and merchandise
are profoundly mistaken. Unless, with the
greonbacks they 50 urgently demand they
can bring back the same distrust Of their
value that prevailed during the war, and the
same general disposition in the public To get
rid Of them ON any terms, the debtor would
notbe likely to experience much relief The
Government might print the notes. hut
unless IL also declared its intention to repu-
date them they would not decline in value;
and II IL did declare this intention, nobody
would take them. The only way we can see
10 effect the desired relief Of debtors is for
Congress to declare that hcrea ftsr in tine
payment Of debts one dollar shall count for
two or more; but for this kind of scaling
down we doubt If the country is yet ready

Local journals in Pennsylvania announce
addresses about to be made in that State by
Gen. Is. +. BUTLER.
Gen. BUTLER has strong following in
Pennsylvania much stronger than is gem
orally supposed. We speak from knowledge
derived by contact with the Republicans OF
that state. There are thousands upon thou
sands Of Pennsylvania Republicans who
would prefer Gen. BUTLER for President to
any other man in the Onion. The sole and
only reason they have not made this prefer
ence manifest heretofore is that they did
not see any chance OF electing him
II Gen. BUTLER travcrses Pennsylvania
making political speeches we predict large
concourses Of people to hear him.
But what is going to be the final result
There is every reason to believe that either
the Democratic or Republican candidate will
bc elected President in 1880
Gen. BUTLER can exercise n powerful in
ilueuce in favor Of either. But how can he
do anything more?

The Expulsion of kellogg.

made to suit the occasion, but for aiding

Importance KELLY, his former colorcd

committee in New Orleans Offering to prove
the forgcrics TO the second set of electoral
certificates. which KELLOGG had endorsed
officially and forwarded 10 Washington.
with false date TO substitute the first set,
which had been rejected by MI FERRY as
irregular in form.
When it became known that KELLY was
disposed to inform on his former employers,
KELLOGG sent another colorcd brother, for
whom he had procured a place under the
Scrgoant-at-Arms Of the Senate, TO Louis
lana to get KELLY out of the way, and no
was successful In that mission, for the two
were traced together 70 Cincinnati. at which
point they started for the East.

he was forced 90 confess that KENNEDY was

he had procured a leave Of absence ior him,
just before the adjournment Of the Senate
to enable KENNEDY 10 20 to Louisiana.
Dovetailng these facts with the subsc-
quent developments, there can be no rca-
sonable doubt that KELLOGG had full knOwl-
edge Of ii he did not direct the forgercs
Of the certificates, and that it WIS through
his personal agency KELLY was spirited
away from Providence, Louisiana, the night
before he was to 20 to New Orleans to oX-
