which will obtain in the near future
aud hope at once. which desire is:
Fir>t-A dollar that shall have at all
times Il certain fixed and staple value,
below which it cannot go.
Second l demand that the dollar
shall be issued by the Government
alone,i the exercise of its high prcrog-
alive and OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES, and that
the power shall not be delegated to any
corporation or individual, any NOR,
than Charles II. ought to have delcgat
ed his prrrogativc of stamping gold coir
for the benefit of his paramours as ;

Third want that dollar stamped
upon some convenient and cheap mate
rial of the least possible intrinsic value
50 that neither its wear nor its dcStruct
ion will be any loss to the governmen
issuing it.
FOURTH also desire the dollar to b,
made of such material for the purpOs,
that it shall never be exported or desir
able to carry out ofthc country. Fran
ing an American system of finance, | Il,
not propose to adapt it to the wants oi
any other nation, aud especially the
Chinese, who arc nearly onc-quarter o

Fifth desire that the dollar so issu
ed shall never he redeemed. see nc
more reason why the unit of measure o
value should be redeemed or redccma
Bile than that the yard-stick with whicl

The June Century.

Though there are four profuscly il.
lustrated papers in the June Century,
and four full-page pictures, this mum.
Der of the magazine is perhaps even
more notable for its literary features
than for its pictures. OF special inter-
est is Miss Fanny Stones diary of an
American Girl in Cairo during the War
Of 1882" 1t is vivid and remarkable
narrative of the life of General G. p.
stones family during the month that
mother and daughters We're exposed in
Cairo to the greatest uncertainties and
danger, while General Stone was at his
post with the Khedive, and aiding in
the English operations against Arab.
General Stone, in predatory letter, Sc
vsrely criticises the English attack up
on Alexandria.
President Eliot, of Harvard, discuss
es the question, '.What is Liberal Ed
ucation?' in which he claims that the
sciences and English should be given
leading places in the school and also in
the college course. In a paper on "The
Use and Abuse OF PARTIES" DIR. Wash
ingtOn GLADDEN. advises Independents
to try to act with their party in the
choice of candidates, and to bolt bad
nominations. In Topics of the
Time an editorial called "Reaplng
the Whirlwind" is sequel to the edi-
torial OF the April Century entitled,
"Mob and Magistrate" which so sur
prisingly anticipated the Cincinnati
riot. Another editorial in the June
number relates to another phase of the
riot-the militia and the measures Con-
gress ought to take to increase its elli-
cheney. In "Open Letters" DIR. Chas.
S. Robinson continues his series on
church music with "What the ChoirS

"Music in America" and among the
other short contributions is one by

Buffers Opinion Of the Legal Tender
Decision,

In an interview with a Brooklyn Ea-
gle reporter recently, Gen. Butler said:
That decision is a far-reaching and
important cue and is but a crystalization
of the best thought of the country on
the subject. have always believed
that Congress has the power to deter
mine what is legal tender. 1t is absurd
to talk about limitations Of Congress in
connection with this. The limiting of
Congress in this regard is entirely for
eign to the Constitution.
In n depressed condition of trade is
it not likely that the unchecked issue of
greenbacks may lower the standard of
yalueS?n
Utterly impossible. The legal ten
der note is the standard and no dcpres-
sion or suppression, unless it he an en-
tire suppression of the government. can
lower it. A foot is Il inches, and no
amount Of figuring can make II inches
less than one foot.
Gold and silver coin has two values.
one as merchandise and the other as
money. The former is its intrinsic val
Tie and depends on the laws of trade,
supply and demand, etc, the latter is
its face value, what the government
considers it worth AS coin. Tho values
may differ, and indeed they often do.
If you own II piece OF gold the weight of
a twenty dollar gold piece and are in
need of bread, the chances are ten to
one that the baker to whom you 90 with
your gold for loaf will not supply you
with what you desise. 1t is the stamp
OF the government that makes money.
Without it there can be no circulating
medium. If the power did not belong
to Congress by natural right should
say that the provision of the Constitu-
tion which confers on Congress the pow
er TO fix weights and measures would be
applicable in the case. What after all
is money but measure of value? The
grocer who uses a four ounce weight TO
balance certain quantity of tea re-
ceives for this commodity equivalent in
coin Thatequivalentis is as truly mea-
sure OF value as the four ounce weight,
the difference being that coin as meas
ure OF value has fixed and known ca
paeiiy and its circulation is universal ~
"'SU can put You down as u believer
in'the'recent expositions of the powers
of Congress in the premisesp"
ayes, that decision settles great
question satisfactorily"
