The Silver Bill.

The bondholders, and their coadiu
tors of tie large cities of almost all
parts of the country, are using every
means, both fair and foul, to defeat
the Bland Silver Bill aud prevent the
reconciliation OF sIlvor. Millions Of
money. petitions and memorials are
being used freely. and the Senate Will
be beseiged by lobbyists and an at
tempt made to bulldcze Hayes into
vetOing the bill if it passes the Senate.
All these efforts are being put forth
by the few who are already immense
ly wealthy, in order that they may
grow richer at the expense Of the
people, although j, should Fill the
country with paupers aud make it one
vast scene of universal wretchedness
aud misery. But if i! were left to
popular vote to-day, the bill would
receive the largest majority ever poll
cd in the United States.
Therefore, if this Government is
really wha, we boast that it Is; if the
OeODlc IEc ltS a. aHN'
Voice is supreme. the Senate aud the
President Will recognize the fact that
shey are the servants of the people,
and not Of a few wealthy nabobs and
SPECTATORS, aud the bill become a
law. and the country will be relieved
from the dire effects Of The impending
crisis. The House has already shown
that its members recognized their
duty and appreciated the situation;
and the friends of the bill are conf
d. ut that il will pass the Senate and
,ha, Hayes will approve it. So mote
it be.
The House Of the Pennsylvania
Legislature has endorsed the bill by
resolution, al d it is to be hoped that
the example will be followed at once
by all the Legislatures Of the South
aid West.

ITS PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.

ITS PAST, PRESENT AND Future.
The 26sh of April. 1878. is past /;
to-day, the eth. is at hand; and to-
morrow, representing the future, "
is still to come. A worldwide or
ganization, which has for its foun-
dation the component elements of
Hope, Faith and Charity, cemented
by Mercy and 'Brotherly Love, can
well afford to look the future stead
fastly in the face, and by its benign
influence, combined with its practi-
cal and substantial attributes, pro-
ceed to erect a moral structure
which shall last as long as the great
principles which it inculcates find
d responsive echo in the minds and
hearts of our fellow beings.
Owing to want of space and time,
we were unable in our issue OF yes
terday to give even a brief synopsis
of the Grafton delivered yesterday at
Yesler's Hall by Francis Henry, Esq.
Suffice to say that he handled the
subject of discourse without
gloves" dealing with it in an emf
nently practical manner and forci-
bly, illustrating how our naturally
selfish natures and proclivities may
be brought under subiection. and
even utilized for mutual benefit and
support, by combined action based
upon true knowledge and an ear
nest effort to discriminate between
TIE difference Of right and wrong.
At the close of the days literary
exercises, tie "Old Fellows" mixed
with the Even Fellows" while the
ladies and gentlemen. representing
Ghosts and guests" "Odd Ladies"
and Even Ladies'" took the op
portunity to enjoy each others So
ciety, and at the same time dilate to
their mutual delectation on the mu-
liability Of human affairs in general,
the peculiar architecture of our
buildings in particular, the grading
of our streets and the practical pur-
poses for which sawdust can be used
for the permanent improvement of
streets.
Shortly before 8 P. NJ. ladies and
their escorts might be seen vending
their way to the United States Ho
tel, the exterior of which was ap-
propriately decorated with ever
green's and suspended lanterns. The
capacious dining room and billiard
hall, which had been previously
prepared, were quickly thronged by
lads and lassies, willing and eager
to do homage to "I.r psicnore.'
The programme was faithfully car
ried out; the music by Hayes string
band was all that could be desired,
while the various committees de-
serve much praise for their earnest
endeavors to entertain their visitors
in manner which refecls credit on
the hospitality of our local lodges.
We can safely say that 700 people
were present, 200 couples being on
the floor at one time, doing the
eight fantastic" to the inspiring
and well-timed music. aided and as
sisted by the stentorian bass voice
proceeding from the well-developed
lungs of the caller. The ladies' came
out in full force and we, in common
with others, remarked with pleasure
the simplicity of their costumes and
their want of affectation in manner.
We were sorry to hear that sever
al of our invited guests had reason
to complain regarding the supper
arrangements, which it appears were
entirely inadequate to the number
present, and caused expressions of
much dissatisfaction on the part of
gentleman who had ladies in their
charge.
