His friends take justiabe pride in pointing

The Democrats here are very sick of this

back out OF his illegal and unjust position.

here It is SAID, some OF his best friends ad-
vised him not to have any more public rssep-
tons, because they have been overdsne, and
give chance for cheap men to make thsm-

says plainly that they have hurt General Grant

have been allowed to announce that they are

The young ladies OF Washington are debat
ing how they shall modestly but effectively re-
buke the ill-brei men who stare at them in the
street cars aud stages. 1t has been decided
that the most effective remedy is for the young
lady to retort by psrsistently staring at the
male starer's feet and assuming an amused ex-
preston OF countsnance, as though looking at
something funny. Naturally every one else
in the car looks at the bad mans boots, and
thus injured innocence is avenged. Very few
men, comparatively, can stand unfiinchingly a
modest lady's persevering stare at his feet.

We have In use two kinds OF notes. The
United States notes are fixed in amount. But
the National bank notes NAV increase or de-
crease in volume as business in any part of the
country requires. This, then, is the only elastic
part of our paper money, and yet men want to
abolish it. No other part OF our currency has
this faculty Of adapting itself to merely local
needs. Gold comes or goes when the trade OF
the whole country requires more or less
Legal I enders or gold, il more are wanted for

be drawn only from other places by borrowing
or by competition in selling products. But Ma

manner local business OF almost every kind
may supply itself, through the bank system,
with such currency as II really needs. and may
thus be free from too great dependence upon

required is capital, invested according to law IN

ISiEEooNyEarrBLr CURRENCY.


Many propose "a currency interconverlble
with bonds bearing low rate OF interest"
When money IS too pie nty, they claim, the rate
OF interest OF money loaaed will fall, so that
The holder OF bills can get higher interest by
converting them into bonds. Again, when
money is 100 scarce, the rate of interest for
which currency lends will rise above the rate
paid on he bonds, aud cause bonds to be con-
vsrted into notes. Any serious excess or lack
or currency, men argue, would thus be prompt
ly cured, II not prevented. When greenbacks
wers not redesmable, this scheme found an
excuse IN some supposed need OF 8 elasticity Z"
in the currency But now there is no excuse
for u. IN any form or phase, for we already
have q better. safer, and more truly elastic cur
rency than it possibly could secure. NO one
wouid now propose it but for one object-to
get cheaper debt paying paper than that
which we already have. Naturally, that form
of the schems which wosld give the cheapest
and worst kind OF paper money Is the form
generally urged, namely, that the bills should

interest OF the bonds should be payable only in
