which public free-school funds shall be col
lected, and requiring them to be paid to the
credit of the literary fund.- and used only
for public free-schooI purposes, being the
special order OF the day, was taken up and
discussed by Mr.. MASSEY, patron OF the bill.
GThe bill, in substance, provides that the
tax for the support Of tine free schools shall
be paid in money; not in coupons. 1t IS,
in the opinion Of some senators, the first
step in the direction Of forcible. reEdiust-
ment, and will be followed up with bill
providing that the license taxes shall also be
paid only in money, heretofore introduced
by Mr.. FuLKERsON. who also has bill to
raise taxes to sixty cents on 500, which
shall he payable for fifty cents in currency.
The object Of all three bills is to put pres
sure Oh the bondholders by discredlting the
coupons.l
Mr.. HURT OF Halifax moved to refer the
bill to the Committee for Courts OF Justice.
MIR. WALsToN favored the motion to COM
NIT in order that that committee may de-
eide whether the bill is constitutional or not.
Mr.. BLAND favored the commitment OF
the bill.
Mr.. FuLKERsoN said that he thought that
O discussion of this question would show
what pitiabIe condition this old State is in.
He made long speech in advocacy OF the
bill. He thought there was no constltu-
ttonal difficulty in the way. 1t was plain
duty to pass The bill and require themoney
TO support the schools to be paid in money.
Pending further consideration OF the
bill, Mr.. FULKERsoN being on the floor, the

The Republican, Of this city, has swiv.
el,ed itself into the ranks of the green
back party. This brings its editor nearer
to those dear friends of the long ago, the
democrats, for Yon know that the White
Swan once run a democratic sheet. He
has made this last change because the
Page party has become so slim that he
can no longer live on Its support. Then,
too, the only men whom he has served,
are deserting him, and he must find some
one to take their place in furnishing pap
for the coddling of his paper, for any
one knows that it can't live from ITSELF
And grcenback friends, you have made a
mistake in letting him into your ranks.
He is Jonah, and whether he's a whale
or Jonah, there's sure to be a spell of
sickness in any party he is in. The
Reputliean Is rotten reed, and will
only lnjure your cause. Mark our words.

A BAD WOMAN's GOODNESS.-Miss Carrie

his betrothal to Princess Christina be
true Possibly, however, he is forced to
the contemplated alliance by state rea'

building in mem ory of the dead, will be
used in the solemnizing of his marriage
to her sister. In which event won't the

bers the jewels she sold to aid in its

The Lanesboro Journal, of the Maine

It shows, however, that the greenback
party is capable of making some trouble
in the political field. Not an enduring

but q sensational movement like Know

probably, be overwhelmed in the return
