Views sf Ancient Lawxivers on
Currency.
HoeKHsslH, Dec. 20, 1880.

: SS'~ seSpSSs ~ AcSNs
MEssRs BDIroRs Possibly many
your readers may not be aware that
representative currency, similar to th
Gieenback idea is by no means, q nes
} ore. 1t was not new, even In the day
OF Franklin, Jefferson, or the othe
fathers and statesmen Jf our Republic
who have left their testimony in It
favor. The ancient nations had thsil
dificulties, resulting from q eurrens,
OF the precious metals, and Jonathan
Duncan "a writer on monetary affairs,
states, that one OF the earliest planl
adopted 10 surmount the difficulties
"was the creation OF 3 Hational curren
cy in each Independent State, for inter
nal trade alone and its distinctive
characteristic was the total absence o
intrinsic value, which efsotually PIE
vented its expectation"
Lyonrgus, the old Spartan Law siver,
founded bis monetary laws upon tht
same principle, discarding gold and
even destroying, as far as possible, ths
commodity value of the iron on which
he ooinet the money of the State.
The old philosopher Plato took the
same Visu, recommending adouble cur
rency in every nation. "A coin," he
said, "fOr the purposes Of domestic sx-
change" 81 affirm
it must have value among the members
OF the Stat,, bat no value to the rect
OF the vorld." For using in other
states ha proposed coin ef Intrinsic
value. ''In this way they greatly
ecanomizsd the use of the precious
metals, allowing them to be wholly
employed in discharging the balance OF
foreign trade"
These historical facts seem to be
worth recalling. The wise men of old
had evidently learned what We, of this
day, have discovered to oHr sorrow; lat
least 1t has stared us in the face long
enough) that the currency of people
their tool of exchange. should to
maintained steady; not liable to be
drawn from there TO foreign country
or improperly allowed to huctuate in
per capita amount in thsir 0RB-
The closing remarks of Jonathan
Duncan, quoted above contain a broad
hint TO Us on our pending financial
question. BY adopting the ideas OF
law givers, Plato. &c, and turning the
whole currency of our country into
"GresnbaCks," in no way dependent
upon coin, we can save our precious
metals TOR other purposes. Since the
balances OF foreign trade are i'll cur ia
Vor, and II We do our duty, can be
kept so, the precious metals can, and
ought to BE-, applied to the pay meat OF
maturing bonds aud all this talk o. re-
funding for a long period stopped at
once. Phers is no true statesmanship
in it, according to our view, and, we
opins, it is only proposed in the inters st
OF corporations ana classes that nave
no light 10 dominate, selfahly, the
Interests OF the country as whole.

from the crowd that filled the spacious

their design was successfully carried
out. AS Mr.. and Mrs. Simmons Slight-

their arrival, and extended to them
their hearty congratulations. They
presented them with number of very

They were handsomely and tastefully
arranged, on either end OF each were

Diphtheria stills continues TO claim
a good many victims In Brooklyn, al
though the Board OF Health OF that city
have adopted every msnuer ofneans
within reach TO prevent the spread OF
the disease. During the month OF
November 59l cases were reported, 220
OF which terminated. fatally. Up TO
date, during the preEent month, 345
cases have been reported, lob Of which
have had fatal termination. Defec-
tive plumbing, it is believed, has much
to do with the continued prevalence Of
the disease. A report made to the
Board OF City Works ON Thursday
morning assigns this, in the opinion Of
the Sanitary Superintendent Raymond,
to he the principal csuss for the cpl.
demic. the fact il stated that out OF
II, "a manhels covers in the city,
9,S5S have solid covers. The sewers are
therefore not properly ventilated, and
when the tide rises tho poisonous
gases, which should escape through
the PERFORATED manhols covers into the
open a air, are forced into the connections
of the private houses. The health au-
thoritiss are of opinion that diptheria !
will spesdly vanish if the solid iron
covers of the manholes ara replaced by
perforated covers.
