Lamb presented his remonstranc es
against the issuing of the bonds on
Tuesday, but as the matter was not be-
fore the Board no action was taken.
We learn he claims that there are 400
names on the circumstances. We had
supposed from the noise and fuss about
tAe matter much larger list would have
been secured. AS it is less than one
fourth of the voters of the county have
signed; and we know of several persons
who are heartily sorry that they did
sign their names, and one man who was
instrumental in getting names to these
papers assured US that it was done with
out due consideration and that after
further investigation a majority of those
signing preferred that the debt should
be funded.

WILLIAM BTSSELL, Editor.

The County Commissioners met Mon
day and after two days session ad-
journed to meet April Path, at which
time they propose to make a thorough
investigation of the outstanding debt of
the county. AT their meeting this week
they drew orders on the general fund to
the amount of $1,000, being the bal
ance of the last levy; also for whatever
accounts presented against the poor
fund, as the levy for that was consider
able in excess of the demands against
it. 4 good effect of their late order in
regard to requiring persons who were
on the county to be taken to the Asylum.
Orders were drawn only to about one
third of the amount of bills filed, among
those left out, by exhausting the levy,
and who did not get their warrants,
were County Clerk Lowe, Treasurer
Smith, number of the Trustees for
assessing and the HERALD for printing
and job work. We will publish full
proceedings in our next issue.

T. M. Helm Watched.

One of those little incidents that
brighten life-a beautiful oasis in the
desert of official cares-that makes one
feel that he is among friends, occurred
at the land Office last Saturday. When
the employees of the office were at their
desks Receiver Hays advanced to T. NJ.
Helm, (who Will soon retire from the
office of Register, a position he has oc-
cupied so long and creditably), and in a
short, appropriate speech presented
him with a handsome watch as testi-
monial of the esteem of those who have
been associated with him. In a few
well chosen words the recipient respond
ed, thanking his friends for this mark
OF confidence and good will, as
surfing them that he would ever cherish
it as a memento of lasting friendship.
The affair was so quitely managed
that Mr.. Helm was taken quite by sur
prise, but as he is native born Ken
tuckian was of course ready to make a
suitable and eloquent response.

for the amounts SO deposited, can have the
effect so specifically alleged, of decreasing
the amount of gold in the Treasury. As well
assert that addition in effect can work sub
traction, or that the daily outflow of the rivers
of the earth into the oceans in effect, dimin-
ishes the aqueous volume of the sea. And
vet, substantially, this is the stark naked
avermcnt made 10 the readers of our daily
journals, who, for the most part, are educated
to accept for truth, without reflection, the
most barefaced falsities
That there may have been elimination
of the gold in the national cash reserve at the
time and 10 the extent alleged, We shall not
deny. We have only TO brand, an immor
ality, the allegation that it was due TO the
issue of Treasury gold certificates or any
other than the actual cause, namely, the pay
ment of a considerable amount of the public
Indebtedness, contrary to the clear intent of
Congress that such Indebtedness should be
refunded in bonds bearing three per cent. in
terest-instead Of which, the Secretary of the
Treasury has been refunding little Us pos
sible, apparently preferring to use the gold
reserve on occasion to suit the purposes of
certain Wall street interest, in a manner so
open to abuse aS TO make his course so fraught
with danger to the public finances as to call
for a general protest throughout the country.

self demanded the highest order of courage
He did not shrink from its requirements,
while others equally adventurous, it may be,
bent their talents and all their thoughts to
the sudden acquisition of wealth through
speculation in the mineral treasures that were
discovered, or otherwise wasted whatever
means they temporarily acquired in gambling,
debauchery aud drunkenness, he calmly pur-
sued only legitimate avocations, content with
little, yet with loftier asd nobler aims in
life.
II was constant saying Of the celebrated
orator of the Revolutionary struggle for
American Independence, Patrick Henry,
using the common language of the people,
that ''here is nothing arthiy like genus" So
il was with him. Soon was it noticed by
rhos. in whose midst he was that he was
man of better and purer mould than them
selves. There was nevertheless, no assump-
ton about him no appearance whatever Of
egotsm, nothing self vaunting but all that
was self possessed, self collected aud strong
Of purpose.
In his profession he was sought after; his
reputation spread. Colorado became Il state,
and without promises or pledges, without
bribery or cajolery, he was elevated TO a seat
in the senate Of the United States a tribute
alone to unsullied worth and from his seat
in the senate he has been again 80 called and
50 alone, to assume the portfolio Of the In
terior Department as one Of the great coun-
sellors of the Nation. He is to-day the fair
est and best representative Of the great heart
of the west, and as such, stands forth in the
eye of true policy as the safest and fttest
figure to be placed on the Presidential ticket
Of the Republican party in 1854.

Hon. II, ", Teller.

From the Washington ID. C.l National View.
In an nge when the value of men figuring
in socinl or political life, is measured, for the
most part, by the length of their purse rather
than their Inherent and acquired virtues, and
few without large pccunary resources through
which to attract attention. and so to purchase
public regard, II is indeed gratifying. to con-
template the charatcr and success of such a
man as Henry NJ. Teller, of honorable paren.
tagc, yet destitute of exclusive property or
pccuniary possession. As a boy, he was left
without resources, save the qualities of mind
and heart stamped upon him by his Creator,
and impressed upon him ut the mothers
knee. Little schooling he had but he was
early taught self respect honesty, sobricty,
frngality, industry, patience and fortiiude.
Thus substantatcd In the highest principles
Of morality md true worth, while ycta YOUTH
he made his way, with manly energy, as n
pioneer, to the vast andno potential, but us
yet undevcloped region of the west.
The new situation in which he found him
