MIR. BIECHER AND DYNAMITE.

The blood of a natural orator is always fired
by the enthusiasm of his audience. lrishmcn
ALWAYS have their hearts in their threats on St.
Patrick's Day, and whoever addresses them is
swaycd by their infectious sympathy. Mr..
Beecher's appearance at an Irish banquet was
novel experience, and the exhiarating influ-
euces of the occasion affected his OratOry. He
was prepared to make generous and apprcci-
ative speech that would warm the hearts Of
patriotic lrishmen. His imprisoned elOquence
and sparkling humor kindled blaze of en-
thusiasln all about him. and this in turn heated
him and tempted him to say some things which
lie had not meant to say. One of these SEN
fences was this: When consider people left
q to right themselves by such means of violence,
"while dcplOre it, say they have right to use
"whatever weapons their ignorance puts into
@their hands, This, taken i'll connection with
the passages which had preceded 1t, was con-
strued by those who heard it as an explicit de-
fence of the use of dynamite. We are glad to
have in another column Mr.. Beechers disayOwal
Of any intention Of advocating 50 excclable a
method Of warfare. The equiyocal phrase did
not express his real thought The ndlscrmi-
nate slaughter of men, women and children in n
London passenger station, for the sole purpose
of creating panic and intimidating the Govern
menb is not campaign which he approves; and

Louisville Courier Journal contains an article in

with the inquiry, How long will the people Of

Two changes worthy of note have been made
In the Logan bill to increase the efficiency of
the Army. As it left the hands of the Senate
Committee on Military Affairs yesterday the
clause limiting the force to 10000 men had
been stricken out. and another clause provided
that no officer could order private to do me-
nial work without the pIivate's written consent.
This last provision ans that the lot of the
private henceforth may be happier onej but

IyFL4rOY or CURRENCY.

The movements of currency this year have
been as instructive as they have been cXtraordl-
nary. Aftera remarkably rapid decline in their
surplus reserves, the banks Of this city 81 hold
a surplus about as large as their deficit was one
year ago. They started the year with reserve
of 500 600, 900, which was larger than they had
ever held at that season. Their gain IN cash,
from the beginning of the year until thc highest
point was reached, was also beyond all piece-
dcnt-about $2l 100000, against about
$1,000. 600 in 1883, $l0,000,0O0 in 1852,
and $1,000. 600 in 1851. Now the loss
from the highest point has been about
&II 100000 in five weeks against 81
600. 900 in eight weeks lastyear, $lo,OOOOOO
in FIVE weeks in 1~S2, and %l5,OOO,OOO III four
week, in 1881. Consequently they still hold
more cash than they ever held before at this
time in the year, and more than they ever held
in any previous year except in the summer ot
1851. 4 surplus of $G,6j4, SO at this time in
the year is phenomenal, though one more de-
cline Ike that Of last week would about cXtln-
guish Il.
The Treasury movement has been curious
also. From December 3lst until March LIST
tine Treasury gained in gold 100000; since
March 1st, il has lost S9,O0OoOO. As to silver
it increased its stock nearly $4,000, 900 in
January and February, and has added $l,200,-
600 since March lst. But tie gold and silver
certificates outstanding increased nearly &c.
100000 in January and February and have
now decreased over 1O,O0O,0OO in two weeks
As for the legal tender, not owned by the Treas
ury, the amount ont decreased over $G,00O,00O
in January and February when the great in
crease of certificates occurred, and since March
has increased about 81 zoo. 900. Putting all
kinds Of paper together, the Government Dor
rowrd by increased ISSUES over %9OO0.OOO in
January and February and has now paid by re-
dcmption nearly 100000 in two weeks.
The gold and silver held by the Treasury and
the notes of three kinds actually held by the
people at the three dates contrast thus:

what tbe removal of the 10000 limitation
means is not so clear.

So far as we can see, it does not matter
much in what way the arctic whalerS are III
duced to take an interest in the tate OF
Lieutenant Greedy and his party so long aS
they are led to keep a lookout for any
traces of the observers. Yet the heads OF the
Navy and Army Departments at Washington
seem to think that il matters great deal.
They propose to 20 about it indirectly ana
are opposed to Offering formally any reward
The resolution of Congress directing the hihng
out of the relief expedition, they say, does NOT
allow it moreover a reward would be tempting

Yesterday was arcd-lettcr day at Albany. So
much good work in behalf Of honest government
in Ncw-Y0rk City was never before done in so
short a time The Senate passed the bills to
elect Controller and President Tor the Board
of Aldermen next November and so advanced
the bill to give the Mayor chosen this fall the
power TO appoint for long terms the successors
OF the present Commissioner Of Public Works
and the Corporation Counsel, that it will
probably be voted on to-day In the Assembly
under suspension of the rules, the nine bills
which are the outcome Of the Roosevelt investi-
CATION were made a special order for Friday of
next week. That means that from that day
they will I've considered until they are disposed
of. The vote was 20 to 81. Moreover, the
Prison Labor Commission bill WAS ordered to a
third reading. But there i, some bitter mixed
with all this sweet. The Senate passed the bill
increasing the pay Of the Now-York policemen.
That means additional burdens on the taxpayers
of this city.

1t does not seem possible to doubt that the
$4,000, 600 OF notes put out by the Treasury this
wear were an undesirable addition TO the cur
rcncy. and merely increased the initiation and su-
pcrabundancc. The withdrawal Of gold so far
as il has caused a shrinkagc of 100000 in
the paper circulation, is not at all to be re-
crct!cd. And ~ to the Ncw-YoIl banks, not
withstnding their recent loss they still hold
$4,000, 900 more specie and $2,0O00O0 more
legal tenders than they held at the beginning OF
the wear. and cannot be considered in any
danger of want.
II is not fashionable truth, but il is still a
truth, that the country has more paper money
floating around than it can put to good use.
The most mischicvous part Of it, the $4,000,
900 Of silver certificates would get out OF the
way in due time if the Treasury would stop isSu-
ing more. The amount held by the people Is
about 500. 600 less than it was December 81,
but it would have been very much more re-
duced had not legislation operated to thrust a
new lot into circulation every month.

The rumors of Instruction and conspiracy III
Spain continue, but the information allowed 10
reach the outside world is not sufficient TO IN
djcate the breadth and depth of the dlsaiiectioh
either in the army or among the people. Some
time ago when the extent of the lntngues OF
Zor1illa was revealed it was seen that there was
cause for real alarm on the part OF the Govern
ment but it was believed that the dissatisfaction
existed chiefly among the privates and non
commissioned officers. TO sOothe this and to
obtain discipline and loyalty the experiment OF
raising the pay of the rank and file was tried
The Minister of War hoped that the experiment
would succeed, but the dispatches at present do
not indicate its success.

The Democrats in the House have passed Mr.

bill. and thus have completed the first move Oh
the session toward securing party capital at
the expense OF an efficient service in all The

consent not to cripple tine management of the

like this is easily seen throueh and if the

voters get through with thcir party next fall ii
will be much in the same condition that Mr.

\ singularly dramatic incident oc-
Cured Friday near midnight i'll the
superior courtroom at Nayneshoro.
during the trial of the Rogers brothers
for the killing of the SymSes -
father and son. The killing occurred
at McBean's station in October last.
Eminent counsel had been engaged by
the prosecution and defense, for both
parties we're prominent and wealthy.
The evidence closed and the speaking
began Friday morning. continuing all
during the day When the coart
assembled after tea the seats and the
aisles within the bar were crowded with
ladies, while without dense throng of
men filled up the auditorium. 1t was
before this assembly that Mr.. Twiggs
began his argument Ut 8 o'clock.
Twiggs is an eloquent speaker. prac-
ticed in and noted fcr his oratorical
graces. In the course OF his three
hours address he at orc time referred
in the most feeling manner to the cour-
age and devotion OF women. The hour,
the occasion, the audience, and the dim
light, from which the rapt faces were
bent upon him, all combined to form a
surrounding well calculated to inspire
the orator to his greatest effort. He
closed his address Upon the women as
follows:
AT the battle of Gettysburg Gen.
Pickett was ordered to begin the charge
which was to make him famous. As lie
went into the terrible battle his young
bride on horseback followed him. When
the hail of death WAS beating down
men on all sides, and the plunging shot
and shell mingled their fierce screams
with the means and cries of the
mangled, Pickett suddenly fourI him

agony of fear for her safety he cried
out to her as she sat cool and COLI cted
as veteran, Go back! Go back !

No. replied the devoted woman, in
the hour of danger wife's place is by
her husbands side"
At this moment through the court
room there rang out one wild, thrill
ing cry which nearly lifted the excited
throng to it's feet. 1t was the old rebel
| yell, ueaTu upon HuHuTtu Va tlo
fields and never to be forgotten. A
deep silence followed. All eyes were
turned toward the outer circle. Then

the aisle with folded arms, quietly con-
templating the bench.

for disturbing the court.

and just could not help from hollering."
The ladies present sprang to their
eet. and in an instant the money WIS
made up and paid to the clerk, The
involuntary yell of the old soldier was
an irresistible tribute TO womanhood.
Had the fine been ten times as large he
would not have suffered.

He learns at the beginning to

When he has become o competent
