was arguing there was an Injurious imitation,
and he demanded contraction. But he did not
think of calling I-30's currency in order to make
out his imitation case. Now we viii take man
from the other side-a man who wanted infa-
ton Henry Cary Baird. Neither did he think
of treating the temporary loans to any great ex-
tent as currency.
Writing to Sec. McCulloch. in February, 1866.
he says
what have increased, but, having been steadily
withdrawn from circulation as they grow in
value, the increase cannot have been very great.
Further than this, the high price of gold having
withdrawn from II all the private boards of the
country, the boarding of "greenbacksn had not
only now commenced, but had made such prog
ress as 10 constitute an important element in
the estimate here, for the close of the year, to
be made of the " paper money! then outstand-
ing. Allowing f,r all these circumstances, the
highest estimate of the circulation that could
now be made would scarcely, as think, exceed
$4,000 00o.n
And 50 l say that not one of the official reports
or Of the estimates made by either contraction
lists or inflationists at the time, limited at such
thing as $1,000, 900 600 of currency in 1865 1t
manned for certain modern reformers to raise
TINS howl about contraction 10 years after these
loans were paid or funded. The thing is ilog-
ical and absurd TO the verge of idiocy and IN
worthy Judgment in any sane and honest
mind. To have refused to pay or fund these
things would have been bald reputation. To
have issued an equivalent amount of greenbacks
to substitute for them would have been to in
wife depreciation and would have been only in
direct reputation No such thing was pro-
posed at the time. and it would have had no
friends If it had been proposed. No one thought
of any Other course than to pay fund the
floating debt just as the law provided should be
done. Modern greenbackers had not yetarisen.
DID CONTRACTION CAUSE THE PANIC OF 1873
ii we have to rely on the funding of temper
airy loans TO make out contraction it will be
hard 10 make 1t appear that contraction caused
the panic of 1878. For these loans were all
issued before the end Of 1865; none of them had
more than three years to run, so they all
mai W naid or
end of 1868. The panic did not come till near
the end of 1873, or five years after the con-
traction was completed. Now, II this was the
contraction and il caused shrinkage of values,
and the shrinkage caused the panic, why didn't
the values shrink and the panic come at the
time of the contraction. On the contrary we
are told that these very years, '66 '67 and 6S,
were among the most prosperous years we ever
had. According to their own arguments, during
the very three years that two.thirds of the
currency was stolen from the people, the people
had great prosperity.
THE PAPER CURRENCY FROM 1865 TO 1878

The fact Is understood that civilization
has generally reached lis highest state ii
northern temperate ATTITUDES rather thar
in the tropics. This has been yariousl,
accounted for. Labor Is the basis Of all
civilization, and the lassitude induced BY
intense heat makes laziness common, Il
not justiaable. But have begun TO sus
pect that this Is not the only cause-thai
our long winters, necessitating rest, may
be quite as important an element In social
progress as the severe toll needed III sum.
neF,
Important as labor Is, "all work and no
play" Is as bad for grown men and women
as for Jack In the nursery rhyme. II Il
nearly three thousand years since the wise
man remarked that "the wisdom OF the
wise man cometh by opportunity Of leis.

become wise;" and In the same connec.
ton, show can he get wisdom that hold.

agricultural arts and sciences until

but many leading scientists, scholars and

the summer tnyigorates the body and

the soil. The disintegration by frost makes
latent fertility available, while the cover.
ing Of snow prevents evaporation and
waste. In very warm countries thescorch-
ing sun burns out the carbon in the
soil and q very few crops exhaust It's
fertility. Something OF the difficulty
OF restoring exhausted soils In the
South may be due to the lack Of stock; but
something more is also attributable to the
continuous drain made by crops growing
nearly the year round. While we think
with feelings Of envy Of pleasant summer
breezes Ia southern climes, 1t Is only fair
that We should also consider the adyanta.-
ges which northern winters confer. ''Thou

Captain Valentino Rose, who for
twenty-iour years has been in the ex-
press business, has arrived here from
Louisville TO locate as chief of the
new Union Express Company, a cor
poration possessing large capital, and
which has been organized within the
past few months. This company has
its lines extending throughout the
routes run by the Louisville and
Nashville railroad and its connections,
and at the same time connects with
the several express companies north
of the Ohio river and the East, and
it enters the field with good prospects
as well as under exceedingly favorable
auspices. Captain Rose is a pleasant
gentleman, and he seems to be fully
versed in all hal pertains to the ex-
press business. He will meet a cor
dial welcome here, and will doubtless
secure a full share of the public pat
ronage.
