WORSE AND MORE OF IT.

And now comes the San Francisco Post,
and out Herods Herod in the extravaganza
OF its attempts to grasp the currency stu
alton from the Greenbacker standpoint. 1t
disseminates statements of the following
kind to its much-abused readers "There
{" is now $3.50, 600, 900, gold, in the United
States Treasury, and this large sum will
" be much larger in the ordinary course of
finance, when the funded debt of 1881
50 falls due. This debt amounts to $751;
60 S64, 800" 1t then proposes that this
supposititious $3.50, 900, coo should be EN-.
ployed in discharging the funded debt, to
the extent of two thirds Of the latter, and
it expresses the opinion that "this fnan-
" cial operation would effect an immense
g saving in interest, /" and so forth and SO
on. Now the truth is that on the lst of
August the total available cash balance in
the United States Treasury was Sl55, 440,-
457, and not $3.50, 00O, 600, or anything like
it while the bonded debt maturing next
year is triie of $500, O00, 900 more than
the Post puts it. Ii, waving these triv-
ial objections to our contemporaries cal
culations, it still insists that it would
be wise and good thing to pay ont the
available cash balance in discharge of the
bonded debt, we must call it's attention to
the fact that this would leave the circula-
ton unprotected, and at once cause a
heavy depreciation of the currency For
though Greenbackers do assert that the par
value of the greenbacks might be main

A CHARGE AGAINST DR.. TANNER.

A Paris journal has charged DR.. Tanner
with deception in his late fast, alleging
that he employed in the place of water a
South American beverage named matematis.
The Paris journal appears to have derived
it's information from the divorced wife of
the Doctor, and as their relations cannot
be supposed to have been very pleasant,
is evident that her statements must be
received with much caution. As to the
South American drink which is supposed to
have been used instead of water, the state
ment is simply ridiculous. The drink re-
ferred to is no doubt that made from the
mate plant, and as this drink is of brown
color, somewhat like tea, it is tolerably clear
that it could not have been used without
detection. But in truth the decoction of
mate possesses no such wonderful effects as
have been ascribed to it. We doubt
whether it is any more capable of nourish.
ing person than is cold tea, for example.
Even il DIR. Tanner had drank it all the
time his feat would have been as wonder
full as it was, but the fact that he really
did not drink anything bu. water was
sufficiently proved by the analyses of bis
secretions. The French journal we are
afraid has been hoaxed.

TIE Few YORK GOLD FEVER.

The chief popularity about the New
York gold fever thus far seems to be the
absence of gold. There is plenty of fever
but nothing tangible to base it on. No
doubt this circumstance does not neces-
sarily weaken the excitement, since very
many widespread sensations of the kind
have had no better foundation. Perhaps
also the tendency of a certain class of
minds towards fat-money theories in these
days may increase the attraction of fiat
mining enterprises. On this coast we have
had plenty of mining which was really of
the fiat kind, but then there was always
assumed to be a reality behind it, and
there actually was very solid reality in
the vicinity, as a rule In New York,
however, there does not seem to be any.
thing substantial in tie metallic way.
" Colors" appear to have been found in
some places, but practical miners know
that so much indication of auriferous de-
posts may be discovered almost anywhere
in the world. There is some vague ialk CT
quartz lodges, but SO far as we can gather
no satisfactory prospecting has been done.
On the whole the New York mining fever
looks like somewhat abnormal delusion,
and if it results in anything more than the
fleeing of sundry credulous simpletons,
we see no probability thus far of happier
outcome.

tanned without any specie reserve to back
them, all who recognize the superiority of
fact to fancy must admit the conclusive
ness, as an argument against that idea, of
the uniform experience of the world since
the invention of paper money. 1t is not
mere matter OF opinion whether a paper
currency could be maintained at par with
out any coin reserve. 1t is ON the con-
trary an ascertained fact that such a feat
is impracticable. 1t has been tried re-
peatedly, from the days of Kublai
Khan down to the present lime, and it
has invariably ended in disastrous fail
ure. We must therefore assume as
certainty the depreciation of the
currency in case the cash balance in the
Treasury was expended as proposed, and
with this result the exploitation OF
the Greenbacker scheme is completed.
For it is perfectly clear that no saving
whatever, but, on the contrary, infinite
loss and injury, must result to the coun-
try from the depreciation of the currency,
and that therefore any scheme which neces-
sarily involves such depreciation is hope
lessly vicious and mischievous. All ideas
OF saving interest through such process
are delusive and vain. 1t would break
down the public credit, stop refunding
altogether, diminish the value of all the
currency and securities in the country, i'm
poverish the working classes, and plunge
the nation hopelessly into the bottomless
pit of irredeemable and deprecated paper
currency. Whether such propositions are
urged from ignorance or perversity they
are equally mischievous and foolish, and
they are altogether out of place in the
columns of journals which claim to repre-
sent that Republican party which is
