The Hard Times. and Silver.

Even the people of England are learn
ing by sad experience that it will not do
to make gold the sole measure Of values.
The New York Tribune, the leading
gold-bug journal in this country, con-
fesses as much in the following para
graph:
"British opinion in regard to the
silver question appears to be changing.
1t is true that the decision of the Man
chester Chamber of Commerce, to ask
a new investigation of the subject, is
but repetition Of an appeal which has
been made more than once by that
body. In Manchester, and in one or
two other cities, connection with the
India trade has prompted commercial
bodies to press the Government
earnestly to reconsider its posi-
ton on the silver question, and
for several years past these ap.
peals have been made in vain. But
they seem to have more force and more
popular support at this time than on
other occasions. The times are hard.
Prices are low, and the working people
find scanty employment. Influential
leaders Of financial opinion urge that
the decline in prices is largely due to
the inadequacy of the gold supply, and
the partial characterization Of silver.
These opinions have had much influence
upon the minds of merchants and work.
ing people in Great Britain"
Why not learn from an experience so
sad? Free-trade England and Protec-
ton Germany both feel the hard times.
So does this country, and all the coun-
tries in the world. Contraction-not
contraction Of the volume Of currency,
but contraction Of the measure Of
valueS-is at the bottom Of all the
trouble. A farmer can sell million
of bushels of wheat for only half Of
what he could sell them for few years
ago. That turns over a million Of dol
lars to be locked up in banks and
vaults, and stops a thousand business
transactions.
The Tribune's paragraph reads as il
little more persuasion might induce il
to become a bimetallist if only Con.
gress will agree to put 4S0 grains oil
silver in a dollar.

The Anglo Russian matter can o s'
very well described by saying i Is still
mixed. Each Of the two great Powers
like MrcAwpER, is waiting for some
thing to turn up, and the chances are that
something will turn up that will bring
ON hostilities. The diplomats have
agreed that the situation must remain
as Il is until next autumn. but In
the mean time the note Of prepara-
ton for war continues on both
sides, and 1t is by no means
certain that the "situation +" VIII
obey the decree Of the diplomats. From
what we can learn Of the disposition oil
the Afghan and Russian forces, asquab-
BILE between their outposts is liable to
occur at any time. Indeed, unless a
strange change has come over the spirit
Of Russia's dream, and her military
leaders in the East have become sud-
denly blind to the best way. Of attain
ing honor and preferment at the
hands of their master, such a
squabble will occur if the shadow
of an excuse for bringing it about is
furnished the Russians. Then farewell
to status quo. SALISBURY could not,
and the English temper would not,
stand another "Penjdeh incident. !"
However, even if the situation does re-
main as it is until next autumn, it
would seem that the day of conflict is
simply postponed until that time. The
Gear has declared that he will not re-
linquish his claim to Zulfcar Pass, and
few days ago the Marquis of Sails
bury stated that Lord DUFFERIN had
promised the Pass to the Amer, and
that his (SALIsBURY'9 administration
was bound by that promise. The situa-
ton in the autumn will therefore be as
follows: Either England or Russia will
be compelled to eat humble pie or
there will be fight. We do not think
there is much ground for supposing
that either will eat humble pie.

Impotent Malice.

The MALONE organs in Virginia do
not find many northern Republican
journals to repeat their silly twaddle
about the State-sovereignty plank OF
the Virginia Democrats. They have
succeeded, however, in cropping ii"
MURAT HALsTEAD, whose malice
against the southern people breaks out
in the following paragraph;
alt did not seem quite necessary, as
General Joe Johnston and General Boil
war Buckner were to assist at the fu-
neral of Grant as pall-bearers, that
Fitzhugh Lee should be invited to re-
peat on Broadway the display that he
made on Pennsylvania avenue on the
4th of March; but Mr.. Lee is the
nephew of Robert f. Lee, and the
Democratic candidate for Governor of
Virginia, where he upholds the broad
banner of the Confederate bloody
shirt"
Go on in your work, Mr.. HALsTEAD.
You are furnishing capital to the Demo-
Gratis Of Virginia. You have been led
to believe that the MALONE organs
represent strong party in Virginia
when they talk about the subjects you
tackle so fearlessly; but such is not
the fact. There are few or no white
voters in Virginia who approve of at
tacks upon the Democrats based upon
sectional prejudiceS.
GRANTS name will bear down HAL
sTEAD's and WHITELAw REDS and
all the rest Of the names Of the bloody
shirt shriekers. JOE JOHNSTON, and
BUcKNER, and BRENT, and FITzHUGH

names. Theirs are among the names
that the northern people will not will
ingly let fade out from the memories Of
men. And FITzHUGH LEES election
to be Governor Of Virginia will please

over the Union.
Your malice is impotent, Mr.. HAL

Wfse's First speech.
IDnincirl Dnof,Io

Hon. John S. Wise, the Malone can
didate for Governor, addressed the first
speech of the campaign to the sovereign
voters Of Pulaski county Monday.
Four or five hundred of them were in
attendance. They were mostly Demo-
cratic voters. and they gave him good
audience. They wanted to see him and
hear him and decide for themselves
whether he was at all worthy of the
important and gravely responsible pub
lie trust he asked at their hands.
They saw they heard; and they
were disappointed. The man was not
the man they had looked for the
speech was not the speech they had ex-
pected. 1t was a tame harangue and
was tamely received throughout. A
few half-hearted cheers would occa-
sionally swell out from an inner circle
of partisans. These were the only
symptoms Of enthusiasm, and they were
robbed of their zest by the quiet and
amused indifference of the great crowd
without.
Mr.. Wise spoke in the most COM
mendable terms of his Democratic OPP
ponent. He could not do otherwise.
He spoke in moderately good terms of
the masses Of the Democratic party, al
though he charged up against them
multitude Of sins of omission and COM
mission, the lame rehearsal of which
was dull and uninteresting to the last
degree.
If Mr.. Wise made a single new point
it escaped our notice. He spoke of the
State-debt question and the litigation
growing out Of it, and he proved con-
clusiyely that in Supreme Court con-
sisting of eight Republicans and one
Democrat the one Democrat was solely
and wholly responsible tor all the adj
verse decisions Of the court in regard
to that question. He rscounted the
acts Of the last Democratic Legislature
in regard to unseating Republican men,
bers, investigating the asylums, passing
a new election law, etc., and greatly
wearied his auditors by labored re-
view of the Why's trite clap-trap on
these subjects.
To sum up: If Mr.. Wise repeats the
same speech throughout the Southwest
he will succeed in showing himself I'M
der to a depth from which even his
"master " cannot resurrect him.

While William Stead at the age of
forty has risen to the editorship Of the
Pdlk-MaU Gazette and made himself
for the time being the foremost man in
England, his brother. who possessed
equal ability, sleeps in nameless grave
in the little town Of Clayton, Alabama.
1t was in 1872 that Stead made his ap-
pearance in Clayton. He was a tramp,
but gave evidence Of having seen better
days. Penniless and friendless, he glad
ly accepted odd jobs and soon went to
work as landscape gardener. To
Professor Johnson, then q teacher in
Clayton, Stead confded the story Of his
life. 1t was the old tale Of drink and
the train Of evils following it. Rum
had robbed him Of family, fortune, and
friends, and made him vagabond upon
the face Of the earth. Again the demon
seized him, and this time death put an
end to his struggles and temptations.
Professor Johnson wrote to the great
London editor informing him of his
brothers. sad fate, and in due time
reply came acknowledging the relation
ship and giving the history Of brilliant
but uncomfortable man. The prosper
Gus editor begged the Professor to COM
municate anything Of pleasing nature
he might know about the outcast, but
not to write any unpleasant tidings. A
very good temperance story.-Atlanta

The New York Times of yesterday
says;
"Keiley's original appointment was
one Of the mistakes Of the present Adj
ministration into which it was led by
trusting too much to those who should
have been discreet advisers, and now
that it has done what it could for him
he should be allowed quietly to retire
to the level above which he never
ought to have been lifted"
In this uncalled-for abuse Of man
who is in every way fitted for the post
to which he was appointed the Times,
generally a fair-minded Republican
journal, loses its judgment. Its after
ances are blinded by the poisonous
distilment drunk from the loathsome
breathings of Mr.. KErLEY's secret
enemies. "Return to the level above
which he never ought to have been
lifted" Such sentence is enough to
convict the Times Of utter ignorance oil
the man under discussion. Let il
raise itself to the plane Of those il
would discuss.

JustSo.

The Chicago Tribune, the leading Re-
publican paper in Illinois, has not been
deceived by the talk Of WHITELAw
REID or that Of MURAT HALsTEAp,
nor that Of MAHoNE's organs, in ro-
gard TO the State-soyereignty plank Of
the Virginia Democratic platform. That
paper says:
"Even the Virginia Democrats have
learned something. They believe in
State-sovereignty doctrines still, but in
stead Of enforcing them by means Of
secession they have discovered that they
really have faith in the Constitution
and Union Of the States, provided the
National Democratic party is their in
terpreter and defender In this event
there would be, Of course, no need
to resort TO secession to enforce
the doctrines Of State sovereignty,
and the yirginians are eminently
consistent in pledging their faith anew
TO the Democracy. There is something
decidedly humorous, however, in the
effort Of the Virginia Democrats to dis
play themselves as the only defenders
Of the Union and Interpreters Of the
Constitution Outside Of Virginia this
declaration will start the query how
much Of the Constitution or Of the
Union would have been left had yir-
ginia Democrats been the only inter-
prefers Of the one or the exclusive
defenders ofthe other"
The Democrats Of Virginia know
what they are after. They know just
how the DRIED ScoTT decision was re-
versed. They know just how the legal
tender decision was reversed. They
know that the Supreme Court Of the
United States reversed its own de-
cisions in both those cases. They
know that the STASLEY-MArrHEws
usurpstion was made by court CON-
posed Of eight Republicans and one
alleged Democrat appointed by LIN.

NJ navard and Mr.. Kellev.

We are glad 10 believe that Mr..
BAyARp feels just resentment TO-
wards Austria because Of the shameful
treatment which that country has ex-
tended to Mr.. KELLEY. The Wash
irgton correspondent Of the New York
Herald says:
"Mr. Kelley will presently return
home, as the Austrian Government de-
clines TO receive him as Minister. But
the Austrian Minister Of Foreign At
fairs has very curiously and stupidity
blundered in giving as the main reason
for refusing to receive Mr.. Kelley the
excuse that Mrs. Kelley is Jewess.
"While the President and Secretary
Bayard were ready TO admit the right
of the Austrian or any other foreign
Government to object TO an American
representative on the geaeral ground
that he was not pleasing to them--a
ground on which this Government has
in repeated instances required the recall
of foreign minister here--they have
resented in g proper spirit, and with
indignation, the excuse given by the
Austrian Government.
"Not a word can be justly said
against Mrs. Kelley. She is lady in
every way fit to appear in any society
or at any court, and to make her Jewish
origin an excuse for declining to receive
her husband as Minister is to show
narrow and mean spirit which Secretary
Bayard has denounced as it deserves.
When Congress asks for the publica-
ton Of the correspondence it will be
seen that the Austrians play q very dis
creditable part in it, and that Secretary
Bsysrd has temporarily and with pro-
per dignity, but with proper vigor also,
resented and denounced the narrow
minded bigotry Of the Austrian Foreign
Office"
This is agreeable intelligence. Itac-
cords with the feelings Of all genuine
Americans.
The Baltimore Sun, speaking on the
same subject, says:
"An occasion, if not the reason, for
this rather remarkable affront to the
United States Government in the person
of its Minister is to be found, perhaps,
in the virulence with which Mr.. Kelley
was assailed by section of the press
Of this country, and the pains many
Republican organs took to assure the
Austro-Hungarian Foreign Office that if
il wanted an opportunity to pay deli
cate compliment to the King of Italy at
our expense, the rejection Of Mr.. Kelley
was an act that would find apologists in
bis own country. Sectional antipathies,
in this instance, seem to have gotten the
better of the patriotism Of these papers.
As an individual the Minister to Aus
tria may not have been wholly agree
able TO some persons Of the opposite
party, but they should have remem-
bered that a minister is sent abroad not
to represent a party, but the United
States. There is nothing to indi-
cate that Mr.. Kelley would not have
performed the service Of minister in
an entirely acceptable manner"
Ignorance of the qualifications Of Mr..
KELLEY for the honorable post to
which he was appointed is at the bot
tom of most Of the articles which have
appeared in the northern papers at
to justify his recall. Sec
tional prejudice and partisan hates may
father the rest Of them.

The Greek Calends.

Yes, the next rebellion will be in the
North, and Virginia soldiers will help
to put it down. II would seem that
that ought to be strong way Of stat
ing that there is no State sovereignty
advocated or alluded to in the Demo-
cratic platform to which even the most
bigoted bloody-shirt waver could OBJ
ject. 1t is only another way Of stating
that the South has no idea of crossing
swords again with the National Govern
ment that Il such q calamity is to DO
bought upon the country, it will be
brought upon it by the northern States.
