The Pay Of SUPERVISORS.

In the Senate, yesterday afternoon,
while the deficiency bill was before that
body, Mr.. Beck, Of Kentucky, moved to
strike out Of the amendment proposed
by the committee the following wo ds
"And for detrAying the expenses which
have been and may be incurred in the
enforcement Of the ACT approved Febru-
AIRY IS, 1871, entitled An act to amend an
act approved May 30, 1870, entitled An
act to enforce the rights Of citizens Of
the United States to vote in the several
States oil this Union, AID for other pur
D. ses, or any acts amendatory thereof or
supplementary therelo, being deficiency
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1879,
of &25h,0OO,' and insert i'll lieu thereof
$3.50 900" so that i, would be AN appro-
priaton Of that sum for defraying the
expenses of United Stata, courts. the
safe keeping Of prisoners, &c.
Mr.. Cation favored the amendment,
and urged that Congress should sppro-
pirate the money for the legal expenses
of the Department Of Justice. The De-
paitinent Of Justice cost S3,0OO,0OO a
year more than AL the expenses If The
government und Washington add the
elder Adams.

viously, as follows:
Mr.. Bayard, (dem.) of Del, said

that it had produced peace or purified IL

\ kAsCALI.Y IKICK.--Anotser of
John Shermaus rascally tricks is now
being felt among the people. The Ma
tional Banks having cribbed the legal
tender silver dollars and paid out the
''trade dollars, yesterday suddenly ,on-
menced to refuse to receive the latter
This is brought about by the influence
of the ''single gold standard" men, who
seek TO make all the difficulty they can
in the currency, and to keep up the bro
keraye business as long as possible.
The government issued the trade dol
lar and put it in circulation. This was
done under Jonn Sherman's influence in
to redeem them with the "!egal tender"
dollar. This is rascally trick, and
those who aid Sherman in his skillful eff
forts to thus take advantage Of the poor
are little better than he is.
No such tricks were ever permitted by
the bank officers under the old State
bank system; and this sharp turn upon
the people just as Congress is about to
a journ shows what they can do new,
and is only an inkling of what they will
do hereafter when they become a more
permanent fixture Of government control
Only few months ago these people,
who now refuse the s'trade dollar" be-
cause it is not designated as a illegal ten
der" declared that the legal tender re.
eognition did not convey any additional
value. How quick they change their
opinions when it suits their PURPOSES
The tIade dollar contaius u grains more
of silver than the legal tender silver dol
lar, and yet the one is received and tie
other rejected.
When the people regain control OF
their rights again they will not be sub
jected to such rascality as that Of John
Sherman and the men who vote with him
on the monetary question. This whole
trouble is caused by the influence OF tn,
British bondholders and currency thinkers
and those who find it to their interest t.
please such people.
With tie gold and silver currency O
the United States before the war of The
rebellion our merchants built and con
troled the largest commercial marine
there was in the world, and there was NJ
trouble with the currency. We are now
the deb or of the Rnglish and the Dutch
and they assume to dictate what currency
our people shall handle.
We hope ere many years to have {

THERE is NOTHING GAINED by secret
movements and they are uDwise and lead
to suspicion. Now, it may be that the
Democrats Levy Court of this county
did not authorize secretly, the bill to be
prepared and sent to the Legislature, to
authorize the borrowing of sI00. 900 for
building a new Court House at New Cas-
tie but 1t is asserted all over the county
that they did, by our opponents, and IL
looks very much that way. We never
heard that such a movement was to be
made until the bill was in the Legisla-
turs.
We might admit that new county
buildings were desirable. But we still
maintain that the county is deeply in
debt, and that we can do without them
for awhile until our debts are paid off.
And if the county is not in debt then
we say lower the taxes, and let he'land-
ed Interest and real estate owners have a
short breathing spell.
But why borrow 100000? Surely we
are not going to "play the foop like the
cities Of Philadelphia and New York
have been doing for the past five years.
We want no such foolish waste of money,
even if a new court house and county
building are erected. 1t is nonsense to
expend so much money on buildings.
Kent county has very largo ami hand
some court house aud it cost thirty thou
sand dollars when built, and We expect
1t could be built nov for twenty five
thousand. We need not expsnd more
than thirty thousand dollars for this pur.
pose, and we are sure that very hand
some county buildings, to connect with
it, could be built for twenty-five thou
sand dollars. We hope the Legislature
will not allow our people to be ran in
debt by this thoughtless and l-digested
scheme. Every gentleman who has spo-
ken TO us about this matter has opposed
the building Of a new court house al
New Castle and many have opposed its
erection at any place at this time and they
dlsapproye of the passage Of the bill 70
the purpose now, because they say those
who have the job in hand will do 1t i
they can get their hands on the none
without regard to consequences. Tier
is no doubt at all that the people Of til
county uldprefer to come to Whining
ton to attend court or to record thel
deeds; and this feeling is increasin
every day. The very fact that all III
boarding house keepers iii New Cast
Y Il.
Wednesdays to buy their beef, butte
aud country produce, is Il sufficient proc
of this. But the people from the uppe
and lower hundreds also say that the
would prefer to come to Wilmlngton-l
