Mesrs. Daniel Wolf aud B. Simon:
DEAR SIRs Your communication OF this
date was received by me with considerable
surprise. My object in recommending q
tlay OF prayer for the alienation OF the
scourge which is now affecting the South
was simply to secure united invocation
TO Almighty, God of all who believed in
and recognized His goodness and mercy,
that He would interpose his omnipo-
tent power, which alone could serve TO
stay the progress OF the terrible
scourge which wis devastating large
portion OF our common country. The
word "Christian" was used by me only as
a general term intending to embrace all
who recognized and relied upon divine
protection in the hour OF need, and was,
by no means, intended TO exclude any Of
any sect, creed, belief or school who would
give prayer for the alienation OF q plague
and least OF all, to exclude the people oi
whom you are members-who are recog.
nized and illustrous for deeds Of mercy and
charity. Respectfully,

the Practical Beginning OF Resumption
oflApecIe Paymenls.

oisNpcClt k-Ay"chNs
WASHINGTON, Sept. s. Secretary Sher-
man has taken what he considers another
step toward resumption in standard silver
dollars. Late Saturday afternoon he issued
IN order to United States Treasurer Gil.
fillan, instructing him to exchange stand
ard silver dollars for legal tender notes
whenever presented by any person. This
is an extension of the order issued few
days since, authorizing the exchange Of
silver dollars for currency through the
United States sub-Treasuries or deposit
ories. The order Of yesterday goes much
further, and is a practical direc-
ton that all United States notes
shall be redeemed in legal tender
silver dollars upon presentation. This Is
in accordance with Secretary Sherinan's
avowed policy to endeavor 10 make the
silver dollar, paper dollar, and gold dollar
on q parity with each other. 1t
is OF course confidently expected that this
new step, which has been in contempla-
ton forsome weeks, will result in causing
the premium on gold to entirely disappear,
for there will be no more use for gold for
customs purposes, and 1t will be possible
to pay duties either in standard silver
dollars or practically in legal tender notes.
The effect Of the order, ut least by
indirection, is to declare that GUS
toms may be paid in United Stated States
notes. The time fixed for this order to go
into operation is September IL. The order
also makes United States per cents prac-
tically purchasable with legal tenders.
The Treasury authorities are confident that
the premium on gold, which was one
quarter OF per cent when the order was
Issued, will be entirely extinguished by
September 10. The Treasury authorities
do not anticipate the presentation OF
legal tender notes for redemption in
greater quantities than the Treasury can
redeem. The fact that silver dollars will
be used largely for customs, in exchange
for 4 per cent. bonds, will enable the
to maintain its supply OF them.
The ten millions OF silver dollars already
coined can, therefore, be used many times
In redemption Of legal tenders, should any
person desire to have those notes re-
deemed, which is by no means certain.
The use OF silver certificates also releases q
corresponding amount Of coined silver dol
lars. Secretary Sherman maintains that
he now has gold enough for purposes Of
and that the margin Is ample
for any contingency. ~
