tive demonstration Of their improperly.
No such demonstration has been made,
and the orders them to have been sus-
pended simply because Mr. Sherman IN
incapable of knowing his own mind from
day to day, and is in condition OF be-
muddlement such as it is not fit that the
financial minister of great government
should be In. The turning and twisting
and shilly-shallying of Mr.. Sherman are
not only evidences of his eminent unfit
ness for the very important and respon-
sible position he occupies, but they are
doing an injury of a very positive and
direct kind to some of the best interests
of the nation. The mental uncertainties
OF John Sherman, private citizen, oil
even of John Sherman, United States
Senator, are matters of comparatively
little importance to the public at large
but when John Sherman, as Secretary OF
the Treasury, is as unable to say what he
will do or what ought to be done relative
to some of the most delicate questions
of finance, as he is whether or no he
wrote the Anderson Weber letter, he
becomes a nuisance, and his suppression
is demanded for the best interests of the
public"

When Eugene Hale was recently in
Washington, officiating as Chairman OF
the Congressional Committee, and swag'
gering around in his conse quential style,
says the N. Y. Sun, he was asked what
were the prospects in his district.
He said he would be reelected by
larger majority than usual, as his
opponent was only an ignorant
mechanic, in whom the people had no
confidence, and who was without any
personal or social standing.
By this time Hale has discovered that
arrogance and shallow pretension, even
when backed up by money, will not al
ways win. In his way he is small fraud,
but he undertook to uphold big fraud,
and those who know him best have or
dered him to stay at home, and sent re-
spectacle mechanic In his place. The
new Congressman, though Re may be
wrong about finance, and deluded by
false theories, comes from the ranks of
the people, and is entitled to respect.

Dollar, with 420 grains standard silver, is
worth only so cents. The legal tender
silver dollar, with only 4125 grains, is
worth 100 cents. The legal tender "fiat"
therefore has given the dollar with the
least silver in it 10 cents more value than
the other dollar, which has the most sill
yer In it, but which lacks the legal tender
fiat. If the fiat can give 10 cents of
value, it can give 20 cents or SO cents or
100 cents value. Therefore it can make
paper dollars TO an unlimited extent
equal to gold, by simply declaring them
so.-Reading Eagle.
The Reading Eagle is a very active
and enterprising Democratic journal, but
it certainly makes great mistake in It's
conclusion in the above. We are some
what familiar with the history of the
greenbacks during the late war. The eff
forts to keep the paper issues at par were
very frequent and its necessity was very
powerfully impressed upon the people;
and with the aid Of million or two of
men in arms one might possibly have
supposed it could have been done. But
The failure was complete and paper issues
and greenbacks kept going down until
$3.50 in paper had to be given for 81 in
silver. In our State it was dangerous to
say word against the greenbacks, and
Democrats took them without murmur,
But the Radicals commenced to demand
40, SO and 60 cents pound for butter,
and beef went correspondingly high
Whlle coffee ran way up into The sixties
and other things in proportion. To show
the efforts of the government officials tc
prevent this we cite the case of one of oul
townsmen who was reported to have sale
something derogatory to the greenbacks
and his house was forthwith surround
ed by troop of horse at midnight an,
Deputy Marshal Culbert dragged hin
out of his comfortable bed and sent hin
to Fort Delaware, where he was denie,
all the courtesies that gentleman usual,
needs, while access to him by friend
was not permitted for weeks. Now,
the government could not keep TIN
greenbacks at par with all the force
had during the war, how could it be dom
now, if an over issue of them were made
We are very anxious to get rich and t.
get out of debt; and should be happy t.
fall in line and favor the greenback BON
purchasing policy if we could see how
could be done with propriety. Tha
greenbacks might be floated to the exter
of the whole paper currency at preseI
we presume to be possible enough wit
the amount of coin we now possess to n
deem them when presented. Perhal
there has been some new way of keeph
paper up to par, invented since 1s64t
but we have not heard of it.

The railway statistics for 1877 show
that during that year the number ofmile'
opened in the United States was 2,177
against 1861 in 1876 The largest mum
Der of miles built was in New York and
Pennsylvania, and in narrow-gauge
lines in Ohio, Iowa and Texas. This was
chiefly additional rail for extra tracks,
the length of which laid between the
first of January and the first of July, this
year, was 870i miles, or about 200 miles
more than the corresponding length of
new rail laid in the first half of 1877.
For the rest of the wear there is little
prospect of much being done in the
same direction. No extensive works are
on hand but now, as always, various
short lines are in progress In England,
Scotland, and Ireland the increase of the
railway mileage during the year 1877 was
20J miles.

SOME of the Republican papers that
formerly sustained and fiattered Sherman
and upheld his policy, have come to a
sense of his utter insincerity and want
even of a knowledge of the laws under
which he should conduct his Office,
When he issued his order to ship silver
legal tender dollars at the expense of the
government he was made to believe the
banking institutions did not want them
and that the people would not take
them, He has found his mistake very
suddenly. He has not enough to supply
the people, and if he had. as we said at
the time he issued his order. he has M
authority for paying for their transnor-
tation. 1t is the business OF those who
want silver currency to send and get II n.
their risk and expense. Sherman boped
to please the banks and money cbangers
again in saving them the EXPENSE of
transportation and saddling it upon the
poor people who pay the heavy govern.

his order, but deserves all the denuncia-

A QUARREL about the physician at the
City Hospital is needless, as the Demo-
cratic Council will certainly discontinue
that useless institution. If it gets into
the hands of bad men they may make it
a heavy charge to the city by filling it
with paupers. But it may not be proper
to dispense with it before cold weather or
