Cursed and bade me to be gone.
Says he has no wife or baby,
That he aold them both for rum.
Oh! fear my fathers crazy
Else, oh! why refuse to come"
Enter softly, she is sleeping,

Hush her kneeling daughters weeping
For her mother now il dead.

Stay this wall Of bitter woe,
Homeless mothers stand appealing
For the rum fiend's overthrow.

With its adder's tongue OF red,

While our children cry for bread.

Like some mighty tidal wave,

The Gold and silver Conference.

/ The international Monetary Confer
ence commenced on the 18th inst The
! Conference Is of the greatest Importance
to the United States Of all the nation,
that will participate in its proceedings.
1t is the greatest silyer-producing coun-
tries in the world. The next bi-metalist
country of importance Is France, and
France and the United States Will be
solid for the double standard Of gold
aud silver, a. they have too much at
stake to abandon it. The Conference
is viewed with no friendly eye by the
gold-bugs and their champions in this
country, who under one fimsy pretext
or another, opposed the reconciliation
Of silver. The Chicago journal, an able
paper, says that they represent Il large
and infentiaI class Of persons, whose in
terest it IS to make money scarce and
dear. All capitalists who live by the
direct use of money are in favor Of any
scheme that wifi make Il demand for,
and increase the value Of, their capital
stock. If silver should be demonetized
and the gold in circulation decreased
one-half, it is easy to see that the gold
remaining would have its value largely
increased. 1t would be increased in
value in proportion as it was made
scarce. and the men who owned itwould
be so much better off accordingly. But
that large class Of people in every coun-
try under heaven who are poor-the la
borers. artisans, mechanics, toilers ofall
kinds, on sea and land--are interested
in having money cheap and good and
easy To be obtained hence those men
who perform the work of the world, who
are engaged in agricriculture, manufac-
turing, mining, commerce and the arts,
are all bi-metallists, because it is for
their benefit that money shall not be
high-priced. In all countries that are
ruled by the aristocracy, like England
and Germany, the gold standard Is
chung 10, ana those countries that are
based upon the popular will, and con
Quoted in the interest of the many, like
the United States and France, even in
the exceptional cases of China and Ja-
pan, favor the double standard We
entirely concur with the Journal
that fit should be impossible for this
Paris conference to arrive ut any salts
factory arrangement for the free coinage
of both metals and for an adjustment of
the ratios between the two metals, the
policy of the United States will remain
unchanged in favor of silver coinage.
The present ratio i4 this country, is six
teen of silver to ole Of gold. IN France
Il higher valuation is placed on silver.
1t is 154 of silver to one of gold

The speech Of senator Vest.

We have not attempted to disguise
our regret that the Democrats in the
Senate could not consistently with their
sense of duty have permitted the cleo
ton of the three or four petty under of
ficers of that body to be held even if it
resulted in the choice Of the Republican
/ nominees, rather than to give the Re-
I publican leaders what they are ever on
the alert 10 improve, an opportunity
to fghtov the old sectional issues, and
to drag from their graves the CHASTITY
skeleton Of buried animosities. In such
wretched business our section, the
South, has nothing whatever to gain.
After the Democrats yielded to the Re
publicans the control Of the committees
which frame and report bills and initi-
ate legislation, they surrendered all that
was really worth struggling for in the
organization Of the body. As to the in
famous and degrading coalition between
the Republicans and Malone, that was
already apparent to the country, even
before the war of words mmenced,
and it would have been plain enough 'to
glimmer in blind mans eye and vile
enough to have Disguised all right-think-
Ing people, if the Democrats had in 81
lence recorded their votes against it.
The remark Is true that the debate while
doing no good to either section, has
aroused memories that ought to be, if
they are not, well-nigh forgotten, and
has added fresh fuel to a fame which
every one who wishes the country well,
prays may he speedily extinguished.
But since the fight is up, the Demo
Gratis of the South have but one alterna-
tive, and that is to come to the front
and vindicate their people from false
hood and calumny, and to carry the war,
if need be, into the enemy's camp, for
surely he is vulnerable at all points.
In carefully reviewing the able speeches
az reported in the Congressional Record,
we have found none that presented the
Democratic side Of the question with so
much clearness, force and eloquence,
and withal in space so brief As to adj
NIT of reproduction in THE CLARION, as
the really splendid argument Of Senator
Vest, Of Missouri. 1t will be found on
our first page and will richly repay care
fuI reading.
