WuE il is remembered that George
F. Hoal President Of the late Republi-
can National Convention at Chicago.
was q member of the Electoral Com
mission, his speech on taking the chair
puts to shame the proyerbial impudence
of a lightning rod-man or a patent-right
agent. As a member of that commits
sion Hoar sinned against light and know
ledge by voting to count Florida and
Louisiana for Hayes, and in doing so
committedan objectionable crimeagainst
the expressed viii of the people in two
States. Having thus covered himself
over with political infamy, he had the
cffrontery in his speech to the conven-
tion to make the broad and sweeping
charge that one of the studied purposes
of the Democratic party is hostility to
honest elections. Ii this was as true as
it is false, it does not lie i'm the mouth
of man like HOar, who aided bv his
vote in stealing the Presidency from the
man who was honestly elected TO parade
himself before the country as the defcn-
der Of tie purity of the ballot-boN.

ACCORDING to the United States Treas.
urer's statement OF liabilities and assets
on the Cd of February, the amount Of gold
coin and bullion in the Treasury is $685.
6oO,O26, or about $4,000 less than it
was month ago. But the amount is
about $1,000, 900 greater than It was last
June, and about $50 100000 greater than
1t was year ago. The amount in excess
OF gold certificates outstanding is, in
round figures, sl4S, 100000, against sl45,.
100000 last month, and Sll6,OOO,OOO a
year ago. The gold available for redemp.
ton purposes is, therefore about S27 $780,
900 in excess OF the amount available a
year ago. The amount OF silver dollars
on hand is SS4 ,06l GIL, or about 81, 800, 900
greater than 1t was a year ago. 1t, appears,
therefore, that these coins still accumu-
late In the Treasury nearly as fast as they
are struck, and that the efforts Of the Sec.
rotary Of the Treasury TO put them in
circulation are not very successful. Tho
amount now In circulation probably does
not exceed sl2,O0o,OOo. The amount Of
