Emerson Dead.

The Republican of 2Sth of April says:
"Ralpa Waldo Emerson, the sage and the
philosopher, is dead. After sickness of a
few days, the man whose name has been on
the lips of millions for half century or more,
whose fame extended over both hemispheres,
whose equal for breadth of research and I'M
Outstanding Of mankind was scarcely to be
found in all the wide world, expired at his
beautiful home in Concord last evening""
Mr.. Emerson's death will be grief
to the cultured and thinking of every
race and country. He was oopfessedly
the first scholar and philosopher Of his
time.
The Emerson family Is one of oldest
in New England, and although it only
now numbers score or less, has MAIN
tanned race of fine scholars and writ
ers. Judge Emerson, of this place, is
the only member of the family known
to reside west of the Mississippi.

So that, instead of silver driving gold
out of the country, the very contrary is
true, up to this time; the quantity of
gold i'm the country has nearly doubled
since We resumed the coinage of silver
dollars, four years ago.
In answer to the statement in the
majority report that gold and silver
will not circulate side by side, and the
coinage of silver dollars has not added
to the volume of the tools of exchange,
the minority say: 1--WE point to the
fact that 500, OO0, 600 Of gold 10 in cir
culatinn in the country to-day, side by
side with the $40, 0OO, 600 of silver coin
and silver certificates; and the silver
dollars and silver certificates which are
performing all the functions of the best
money have Increased the volume Of
the tools of exchange to that amount"
In addition to all this there is the con-
sideration that ours is the largest silver
producing country in the world; that To
Danish 1t from our coinage would be- to
degrade and impair the value nf cur

why the Silver Law Should
Stand.

The minority report Of the House
Subcommittee on Banking and Cur
rency on Silver, submitted by Mr..
Smith Republicanl, of Illinois, pre-
sents the facts connected with the
question in a very fair and forcible
manner. The Secretary of the Treas
ury complains that of the 100 ,000, 900
silver dollars coined under the exist
ing law only $34, OO0, OO0 has been
asked for purposes of circulation, while
$66, 600, 900 remains in the vaults of the
Treasury; but Mr.. Smith replies to
this that the people are unwilling tn
circulate any large quantity of coin,
whether gold or silver, they prefer the
more convenient ana portable form of
certificates or bills to either. They
prefer silver certificate to silver coin,
and they prefer also gold certificate
to gold coin. But it is misstaternent
to assert that the $66, 1000, 900 silver
dollars in the Treasury are out of cir
culation and idle. They are virtually
certificates which represent them. just
as national banks capital is I'm circu-
lation in the bills it emits. The rea-
son why IA larger amount of gol is in
actual circulation than silver is that
the Treasury Department has ruled
against the unrestricted issue of gold
certificates. The people would rather
have gold bills than gold coin, and but
for this ruling of the Treasury they
could return the gold and ask for GER
tificates in the place of it.
Another complaint of the Secretary
of the Treasury is that "a continuance
of the coinage as at present progress
ing will reduce US to an exclusive sill
yer coinage and to place in the COM
mercial world among the minor and
less civilized nations" by driving gold
out of the country. The minority re-
port meets this assertion with the fact
that more gold has flowed to our shores
since we remonetized silver and re-
sumed the coinage of it than before.
''The estimated amount of gold coin in the
country at the close Of each fiscal year since
the act authorizing the coinage of the silver
dollar was as follows:
