THE UNEMPLOYED.

1t is evident to any thoughtful OBJ
server that the labor difficulties of the
United States are not yet ended. The
long desired and expected revival of
trade has not yet taken place; and at
present there are thousands of people
about the large towns and cities, that
are unable to find employment for
their hands. And there are indica-
tions of uneasinoss and discomfort
which portend repetition of last
summers troubles. The first thing
to be grappled is this surplus popula-
ton about the cities. If trade were
to experience a sudden revival there
could not be employment found for
the vast army that would seek it, for
the supply would be greater than the
demand. The true remedy is to cause
the migration of these people to the
more sparsely settled rural regions
where they can procure land and en-
ployment and where they can make a
comfortable living for themselves and
their families. There are plenty of
places in the United States that can
support tens Of thousands if they are
are only willing to work and to be
patient. This move must be made or
the labor difficulties will become more
complex and greater troubles will en-
sue. Let the tramp nuisance be abol-
ished and many of the better class
repair to farming, when they and
everybody else will be happier and
more prosperous

able to provide so plentifully ofwhat is
useful and beautiful for the use of ones
own family, and in ministering SO
largely to the supply of the public
want?
Surely in these, and dozen other
considerations there is an argument
to refute the too commonly INDUCED
idea that farming as an occupation
has lost its interest and charm. There
are in reality a greater interest and
charm in it now than ever before.
1t only requires to be pursued steadl-
" to make it abundantly remunera-
tive; and if the sons of farmers are
wise in their generation they will
check this prevailing tendency to go
into bushes, and will manfully fol-
low the example of their ancestors and
till the soil. They will thereby add
to the wealth of their country, and to
their own importance in proportion.

PASSAGE OF THE SILVER
BILL.

The Silver bill passed the Senate
by more than a two thirds vote last
Saturday. The bill provides for the
coinage of the old dollar of the fathers
with 4i2h grains and will be legal
tender for all debts public and private
not otherwise stipulated in the con-
tract. The Chicago Tribune says
the following in regard to its passage:
The passage of this bill over the
combined opposition of the money in
terests of the country, backed by the
influence of the Sect'y of the Treas
ury and the officers of the mint, is a
triumph for the people that goes to
vindicate the justice of popular gov
eminent and the silent power of pub
lie opinion. The great fraud of 1878
IA stands condemned by the whole
country. The dishonest act of demon
etization is properly and appropriate
ly branded by the overwhelming votes
of both Houses of Congress. 1t was
not in any sense party question.
Both parties came to the defense of the
country, and united in the rescue of
the nation from the grasp of the Shy
locks. All honor to the men of the
West, the South, the Middle States, of
hhe Pacific, who have forgotten all
.sectionalism, and made common
cause, for the robbed, outraged and
sbetraged people.
tWetesngratulate the country upon
the resait-national, political and

,an its .finfaphant victory over all the
apeett4iar influences that have so long
controlled legislation. We congratu-

who:haves SO long and bravely and ably

ulste the Secretary of the Treasury
that the American people and the
country have relieved him of all fur
ther responsibility by substituting
the national for his personal will in
the matter Of natsnaa finances; and
we congratulate the President that the
people have left nothing open to doubt
or uncertainty, hut have passed this
bill by such q yetefhat nothing is left

the Col, but he did not condescend

a reply: Again we wrote, thinking
the Col. was dead, and hoping his

matter and make it good. When we
had about concluded that the admin
istrators were dead also, we received
the invitation above referred to.
Again we wrote, having about given
up all hope of getting anything, and
offered to discount the bill 80 per
