of only two or three days. Deceased

The first of the series of club dances
was held at Turner Hall last Thursday
night. But we learn that there were
not great many participants at that
time but that there will be many more
in the future. We understand that
the dances will hereafter be given al
Union Hall, on Thursday evening Of
each week.
We acknowledge a pleasant call re
ceived from Mr.. Ed. O'Harra, of Rem
vile county, one day last week. Mr.
O'Harra was recently a candidate fo
Representative but failed to receive ;
sufficient number Of votes. He carried
his own town nearly solid which, h
thinks, should suffice to convince al
skeptical men that his Legislative
course is ''indicated."

A swIEDLER's DEVICE.

A few days ago it was stated that DIR.
Buchanan, resident of Philadelphia, who
has recently been successfully prosecuted
for his connection with bogus medical
diploma factory which has for years been a
disgrace to that city, had committed sui
eide by jumping from a ferry-boat, As one
of the deck hands who saw him go over
testified that he was swimming strongly as
long as he could follow his movements, the
theory OF suicide did not obtain much
credence. The police kept on the watch,
and now they have been rewarded for their
vigilance by capturing the sharp swindler
in his hiding-place. The idea of Stimulating
death to evade the law or to get rid of a
bad reputation is by nc means a new one
1t has been tried often by rogues OF vari-
Gus degrees, but somehow it very seldom
seems to work well. A live man leaves
many traces behind him, whether he will
or no, and he finds it very difficult to de-
stroy his identity. 1t is to be hoped that
DR.. Buchanan will be sent to the peni-
Tertiary, there to serve as warning to
quacks for the future, against the dangers
of manufacturing licenses to commit muir
der and calling them medical diplomas.

FOREIGN NEWS.
The Afghan War.

LONDON, August 25th.-An Indian dis
patch says: A large number of Ghazis are
focking down from Khelati, the Ghilzai
road and other directions TO join Ayoob
Khan, who could not retreat if he wished,
as the Ghazis are determined to fight to the
last.
CAEDAHAR, August 25th.-The enemy is
making no attempt at a regular siege.

Gambetia's Cherbourg speech.
{ VIENNA, August 25th.-The article in the
NORTH German Gdsete, commenting on Gam
betta's utterances at Cherbourg, caused a
sensation here. Its firm but moderate Ian
suage is generally approved.
LONDON, August 25th.-The Times, in
leading editorial, upholds Gambetsa's speech,
which, it says is, under the circumstances,
neither rash nor provocative of any irritation.
The only point of comfort in the challenge of
the North German Gd:e1eis the avowal that
Germany will never again interfere in the
political affairs of France.
PARIS, August 25th-The article of the
North German Gazette on Gambetta's speech
at Cherbourg has produced some senss-
ton here. The Rcpubiique Fruacaisc
(Gambetta's organ) replies in moderate,
but firm, language. 1t disclaims any in
tention on the part of France to disturb the
peace. Provocations have come during the
past ten years, not from France, but from
Germany. The Republique Franchise attrib-
utes the article to wish to justify the enor-
nous German armament. Other Republican
papers write in the same strain.

THE CREW OF THE mATHILDE.

The schooner Freda, dispatched by the
Government in search OF the missing mem
bers OF the shipwreeked crew of the Ma
thilde, has returned to San Francisco from
the Socorro Islands, but without having dis,
covered any traces OF the castaways. She
made several landings, but could find no
evidence that anyone had been there. The
Lancashire Witch, which was sent down
by her owner, Sir Thomas Hesketh, on the
same humane mission, has not returned
from her search, nor did the Freda see or
hear anything of her. 1t is now believed
that she has gone to examine some other
islands, about sixty miles from the Socorro
oroup. and it is surmised that the crew of
the captains boat must have persisted in
the storm during which the mates boat
parted company with and lost sight of
them. The chances that they made their
way to any other islands seems indeed
very poor, and it is to be feared that they
will never be heard of again. Nevertheless
il is some relief to know that so thorough
a search has been made for them that il by
any fortune they had escaped the tempest
their rescue will be effected.

This refers only to coined money, not to
the certificates of Indebtedness called
treasury notes. These were issued as
war measure only, as everyone but our
contemporary knows, and when they were
issued there was no thought of making
them permanent legal tender. They are
now maintained in circulation without any
constitutional authority, and case
challenging the right of Congress to
issue or maintain them is now pending
in the United States Supreme Court.
The RECORD UNION, as matter OF course,
recognizes the right of Congress to coin
money, but coming money and making
money are very different things. The
Government has no power or right to
"make" money, since money cannot be
made without first supplying the value it
represents, and since the Government has
no means of obtaining such value without
taking it or borrowing it from the people,
Congress has no business to issue paper
currency. That is our position. 1t can
coin as much gold and silver as it pleases,
and so long as the silver is not palmed off
upon the people for more than it is worth,
no harm will be done. But Congress can
not be trusted with the control of paper
currency, and if it is so trusted the cur
rency will always be subjected to such
dangers as the Greenbackers and other
infatuated people represent. A paper cur
rency issued by Government is in no
true sense a peoples money" being the
most uncertain form of money they can
possess. Nor are the people in any way
interested in supporting the foolish, mis-
chievous, and ignorant propositions con-
corning finance generally, which our con-

MONEY AND ITS MAKERS.

Our evening contemporary says; s. We
=" do not think we mistake its position
"when We say that the RECORD. UNION
would take from the people the right to
make money and confer that power upon
private corporations. If we knew ha.
our contemporary thinks it means by the
words make money" we could answer
this more easily, perhaps. If it means
that the people possess any right to issue
paper currency, we must deny the truth of
the allegation. The Constitution of the
United States gives to Congress power 'to
"coin money, and regulate its value"

sPRAGUE's GUILT AFFIRMED.

Governor Perkins yesterday rendered
his decision in the Sprague case, COMMUTE
ing the death sentence to imprisonment
for life. This is of course an affirmation
of the guilt of the defendant, which was
so conclusively established by the evidence
that it was impossible for the defense to
shake the demonstration. The position OF
the Governor in this case has been an ex-
ceedingly difficult and painful one, and
considering all the circumstances we are
of opinion that he could hardly have
reached any other decision. The respon-
sibility that devolved upon him was the
heaviest that can ever rest upon the Shout
ders of conscientious and humane Execu.
tive officer. Though convinced of the
guilt of the defendant, as every unbiased
and clear. headed student of the case must
be, he was compelled to face the most
powerful pressure that could be brought
to bear upon his judgment in the interest
of an undeserved clemency, and at the
same time he was called upon to determine
a question of life and death, under the
consciousness which must ever be present
to a sensitive mind at such juncture,
that even in the strongest human
testimony there will always be the
possibility of fallibility. He could
not accede to the prayer of his petitioners,
and pardon Sprague. To have done
this would have been to undermine the
very foundations of justice throughout
the State, and to have enlboldened
the lawless crew who look upon the
shedding of human blood as venial Of
Tense. But, on the other hand, to have re-
fused to stay the execution of the death
sentence would have been to accept what
ever responsibility might attach to the de-
hberate launching of fellow being into
eternity Thenceforward Governor Per-
kins, and no other man, would have had to
carry the burden of all possible develop
ments in the case. That the Governor
should have sought to relieve himself from
this weight of responsibility was natural,
nor does it detract in any way from his
conscientiousness or devotion to his
duty as he sees it. He has chosen
course which at once proves his
conviction of the guilt of Sprague
to be unalterable, yet spares the life of the
convict. The sentence of imprisonment
fos life is full penalty for the crime of
murder in the first degree. To many it
may appear even more severe doom than
that of death. But there is no ground for
question as to the justice of the punish
ment 1t must be realized clearly tina. the
strongest incentive to insistance upon capt.
tai punishment in the past has consisted
in the tendency to make lighter sentences
mere pretenses OF administering justice, by
granting pardons to those who had been
deservedly doomed to life imprisonment.
The repetition of such displays of weak
ness has compelled the defenders of law
and order to demand the sternest methods
in dealing with murdcrers.

OUR DsMoCRATIC-GREENBA CON-
TEMPORARY.

The Bee asserts that it proposes to unite
RepubEcauism and Greenbackism, and
wants to know what we will do about it.
We will tell our contemporary. We shall
show to this community the utter incon-
sistency of its position, and shall make it
clear that it is not possible for a journal
which holds such heretical and preposter-
Gus doctrines on the currency and national
finance to be in accord with the Republi-
can party. We shall make it clear that
the Bee is at this moment in no sense a
Republican journal That 1t is in fact sup
porting Weaver for the Presidency, and
Glascock, the Democrat, for Congress in
the Second District. We shall show that
no paper which advocates reputation and
notification, which proposes to cheat the
public creditors, to rob the pensioners of
the nation, to cut down the value of the
poor mans wages, to revive the abomina-
bic old State Bank system, to drive
gold out of the country, to destroy the
public credit, and to bring anarchy and ruin
upon our commerce and finance, is or can
be Republican in principle, or friendly to
Republican doctrines We shall show
that all these mischievous and malignant
heresies and vagaries belong naturally to
Democratic proclivities that they are OPP
posed to the fundamental principles of the
Republican party, and that they are d.
rectly in the teeth of the last official
declaration made by that organization in
National Convention. If our Greenbacker-
Democratic contemporary chooses to keep
on pretending that it is none the less Re-
publican for its reputation of all Repub-
lican principles, it is of course free to do so.
But it will find that the plan OF carrying
water on both shoulders which it has es-
sayed so frequently is this time rather a
more difficult contract than usual to fulfill.
