THE TIMES ON THE MESSAGE. i.
The Times, in an editorial discussing the
message Of President Hayes to congress,
says: If the legal tender notes in circula-
ton be called in and cancelled, silver dollars
must take. their place, and the existing
plethora will be relieved. Further relief
will come in due time from the natural &C.
ton Of trade. Money that has flowed 10
such profusion from Europe to the United
States can't always remain there. Its pres.
ence will soon be felt in the rise of prices
throughout the Union, and, u soon as the
rise has been established, demand for
European goods will follow, and the cur
rent Of money from the east TO- the western
shores Of the Atlantic will be arrested, il
not reversed. A process of this kind can't
bs completed within week or month, but
its development may be confidently an-
acipased.
