THEY DON.T LIKEIT.

The gold organs of the East can't get
over their "mad" at the fact that the pas
sage of the silver bill has almost wiped out
the gold premium, Notwithstanding their
predictions to the contrary. They try by
every imaginable means to prove that the
passage of the silver bill had nothing to do
with reducing the premium on gold. They
will try to make us believe, after while,
that the silver bill didn't pass at all, and
that there never was any silver bill.

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, April 23.-The
Wonderful apparitiOn which has made Its
appearance upon the track Of the Chicago
d Lake Huron Railroad. as reported in the
La'cI-D ceGa Of to-day, still remains COM
plete mystery, and many theories are being
advanced to account for the singular phe-
nomenOn. \ we'll known and reliable
farmer living near Oiivet, who has witness
81 the remarkable demonstrations, was in
this city to-day, and corrObOrated the
statements which appeared in the In'sr-
DrerH concerning the mysterious
apparitiOn. lie saws he has seen
the man in broad daylight, and that he had
on a black suit of clotho-, and slouch hat,
which was drawn down over his ewes. The
old man has long white beard, and APP
pears to be about sixty wears Of age. When
the farmer approached him he would sud
denly disappear in the wood pile, where he
seemed TO secrete himself except when in
trrlded on by any one In the night he
always appears ROBBED in white, and, when
approached. invariably vanishes at the
same place in tha wood pile. Such wonder
ful demonstrations from a ghostly object 50
mysterious have never before been seen in
that vicinity. and the unexplained appar-
ition has produced great excitement in the
eighbOrhOOd.

others have arranged to follow suit. This

than curiosity, preferring bank notes to the
metal, which is too heavy to carry around

TRUTH Is MIGHTY,

the truth. TIE TnEEs has always -ecos-
n-zed this fact. and has governed itself &C
cordingly. Ii frequently becomes necessa
ny, in following out this policy, to say
laings that crate very harshly On the ears
OF our friends, and things that bring upon
US very severe criticism-for ii so happens,
now and then, that the true side Of mat
tel. is % very dissimilar to the side the peo-
pie have been accustomed TO look upon
that the truth when presented " them l.
denounced as lie, while the lie usurps the
place OF the truth. But holding TO the I'M
mortal fact that "Truth crusheo
to earth shall rise again.
this paper has ever dared to give utterance
to what it believed to be true, upon oil &C.
casions. no matter how unwelcome such ut
terances might prove to certain parties, and
notwithstanding the denunciation that we
knew was sure to follow from certain quar-.
tiers. md it affords US pleasure to record
the fact that in nearly every such instance

DR.. Lindcrman is said 20 estimate the
amount OF gold in private hands in the
country at Slj,000,OO0. When silver be-
gins to circulate, this boarded gold will
come out of its hiding place and add just
that amount to the circulating medium.

expect that the prices OF all commodities-
