THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

The Representative of the Govern-
mcnt and His Instructions.
Washington, Nov. Git is learned OF
the state department to-day that prior
to the appointments of Manton Marble to
visit Europe on the question of gold and
silver coinage, the president delegated
George Walker, the present consul
general at Paris, and well known as an
ardent bi-metalllst and advocate of the
use of silver coinage and writer upon
monetary questions, to attend the ses-
sions of the congress of the states COM
prising the Latin union and make a re-
port OF their proceedings. Walkers in
structlons are az follows:
Washington, April 3, 1S85-George
Walker, Consul General, Paris: You
are requested to attend the approach
ing silver conference. This government
continues its unabeted interest in the
question OF silver coinage, and you will
make known our readiness and desire
to enter into negotiations with other
governments tc endow and maintain q
monetary standard of silver IN the as
sociation with gold. The senate on the
Sd OF March last, adopted resolution
requesting such negotiations, and, al
| though the lateness OF consideration in
| the senate prevented its consideration
by the house, it sufficiently presents the
view of the executive to authorize the
declaration you are instructed to make.
| ISigned T.. f. BAYARD.
lhe Joint resolution referred to by
| Secretary Bayard was introduced by
Senator Aldrich. 1t was as follows;
Resoloed, That the president of the
United States is hereby requested to en-
| ter into negotiations with the states of
| the Latin union, and such other foreign
| powers as he shall deem it advisable,
| with the purpose of securing such
| treaties with them as shall bind the ma
| tIons agreeing thereto to open their res
pective mints to the free coinage of sill
yer with full legal tender power at such
rates as shall be agreed upon.
Although not formally admitted to
their deliberations, Walker held discus
sions with the members of the congress
and addressed to them certain obserya.
tions indicative of the profound
interest of the United States in
the important question of bi-metal-
ism. Walkers dispatches to the depart.
ment transmit copies OF his "observa.
tions." which in English and French
were laid before congress. The final
action of the congress, sent by Minister
M. Lane by cable to-day to the state
department is as follows:
France, Greece, Italy and Switzerland
have renewed the monetary convention
for five years. Silver coins redeemable
in gold. No additional silver coin per.
mitted. Convention open to Belgium.

FROM VERMONT TO IDAHO.
Notes by the way.

The shades of night were falling
fast, as into a Western village
passed a youth, who bore mid trains
and men a valise labelled with the
strange device, "H. 4. F." and these
are the initials which will be found
appended to this letter.
Governor Dale has described the
trip to the West in these columns,
and so well that any attempt on my
part would be superAuous. The fact
is, nothing of note happened. Of
course I stared out of the car win
dows and admired; then there were
a great many men and things in the
cars worthy of attention. There
was a young man in the transfer
bus at Chicago who gained all my
attention and admiration. He
opened the conversation by stating
the interesting fact that he was
bound for the Northwest, and in the
same breath demanded my destina-
ton. Of course / told him I was
going to Hong Kong. He said
he was going up to join Middleton
and settle the rebellion; he said he
had got tired of reading in the
newspapers how they had fought
seven hours and only killed two
men,-he could do better than that
himself. Well, the rebellion is set.

This is from the editorial page of
the New York Sun. 1t is in the
nature of personal journalism :
What difference does it make
whether Beecher processes any re-
ligion or none, except to cast shame
upon that to which he pretends to
give his adhesion? The preacher
who puts on the livery of heaven
while seducing the wife of his bosom
friend, and who lays perjury upon
his reeking soul when brought into
a court of justice, may still have the
impudence to preach, but all his
preaching is sham and his discussion
of divine truth is blasphemy. There
is but one honest and decent thing
left for Beecher to do. That is to
confess his guilt and depart from
the sight of men.

revenues, the budgets prepared by
him almost invariably were accepted
as masterpieces of their kind, and
he was a tower of strength to his
party when this important matter
came up for Legislative action. But
now his strong point proves to be
his weakest one. The house of
commons has stood Loyalty at his
back during long succession of ex-
traerdinary and tempestuous expert
ences. 1t supported his schemes
for tranquilizing Ireland. 1t en-
dorsed his vacillating and imbecile
policy in Egypt and the Soudan,
with the waste of precious lives and
treasure eutailed thereby. 1t helped
him through the long struggle over
the franchise bill, during which the
very existence of the house of lords
was menaced. 1t condoned all his
blunders in Afghanistan and swal-
lowed as best it could its humilia-
tion at the concessions made to Rus
STA. 1t voted him vast war credit,
to be expended practically as he
chose. And now it strikes him down
on the single proposition to increase
the tax on beer and spirits Could
anything more sharply accentuate
the exquisite absurdity of the situa-
tion ?
The immediate effect of Glad.
stones defeat was his resignation
and that of his Cabinet, which the
Queen promptly accepted, entrust,
ing the formation of a new Cabinet
to Lord Salisbury, who in thus
assuming the responsibility of or
ganizing new ministry is called
upon to meet tremendous response
bilitles. A satisfactory budget mus
be devised to take the place of tina
which has wrought Mr.. Gladstone
downfall. Money must be raised
and the only question is as to thu
least Objectionable way to raise it
The Russian complications are in
delicate state, and it will require tn
greatest skill to satisfactorily anC
honorably adjust the difficulties. l
is hardly possible to avoid more o
less friction between a new ant
iingoish Cabinet and the Russians
flushed with knowledge of thei
recently-gained advantages owe
England. Over all the other con
siderations involved hangs the I'm
certainty attending the operation o
the amended suffrage law, when
fresh appeal to the people is mad
and the new voters cast their ballots
Altogether it is an anomalous posi-
ton which the parties have reached
and little that is decisive or defnit
can be looked for until after tn
general elections are held.
