THE LEGAL VALUE OF THE SILL
YER EsbLLAR,

The Alta of Friday says: "For rea.
sons which the Treasury seems to have
been unable to control the intrinsic value
OF the silver dollar is % cents less than
its legal tender value. If bonds were
called in and paid in this silver, what
would be the effect upon the credit of
the Government! The legal value of the
silver dollar is recognized only in the
United States" To which the Call re.
plies as follows: "The answer to this Is
that bonds are lawfully payable in silver.
They have risen to their present pre-.
MUM through the action of the Treasury
Department in paying interest in gold.
Doubtless, if the Treasury were to com.
menee paying interest in silver, bonds
would fall somewhat in value. The &C.
ton OF the Treasury Department by
which they have been pushed up to a
premium of "a per cent is in defiance Of
law, and, as q consequence, o portion of
this premium is fictitious, But even if
paid in silver the long.term bonds would
be at a premium. An almost certain re.
suit OF q full restoration of silver as
money would be its approximation to
gold in market value. The present de.
probation has been brought about not,
as our contemporary seems to think, by
causes which the Treasury could not con.
troll. but by the action of the Treasury.
If the Treasury had followed the law of
Congress and paid bonds in silver, there
would have been no such deprec.a alton of
that metal as now exists"

An Editors Surprise.

The death of Judge Curry, of Muir
ray, recalls a characteristic incident
of him. A few years ago Ohio Will
liams was publishing red hot Dem
ocratic paper called the News, at Muir
ray. He concluded 10 take vacation
of a week and go TO the press conven-
ton. lie asked Judge Curry TO occu-
by the editorial chair during his alb
sence. The Judge kindly consented,
and Ohio set out in fine spirits, de-
termining to make the best of this,
one of the few opportunities for re-
creation that come to the country ed
itor. lie might have known from
the wicked CLEAN in the Judges eye
that he was not a safe man to leave
at the helm of a flrst-class newspaper,
but he didn't notice. No sooner had
the mail hack left the city limits than
the Judge set TO work to transmogri-
fly that paper into rampant Repub-
lican sheet. lie lauded Sherman and
Morton and Bill Chandler to the
skies. lie declared the paper in fav-
or of Grant for third term, and cut
several such capers as caused the hail

Nov. 8, 1886.
Lest you should think l am gone
for good it is high time l was writ
ing few more feeble lines. l have
just returned to-day from Caldwell
county where l have been on a visit
in company with three others. Co.
ing down we had bright sunshiny
day that would have made the trip
enjoyable but for cold disagreeable
wind that blew in our faces all day.
We set out at s 80 A. NJ. and at 3 80
Pm, we arrived at the end of our
first days journey tired, cold and
hungry, but warm hearts and kind
hands soon provided for our comforts
with warm fires and plenty of food
for ourselves and tired stock. Our
return to-day was fully as disagreed
BILE OIL account of the cold drilling
rain. We did one thing to-day that
few men can boast of every day. We
were in three counties inside of
minute. We passed the stone where
Christian, Trigg and Caldwell all
corner. Trigg comes down in a
wedge shape between Christian and
Caldwell and we passed out of Cald-
well, across this toothpick point of
Trigg and into Christian in a very
short space. The portion of Caldwell
in which l was, is very good coun-
try; there are many fine farms and
land and rents are high. They do
not raise so much tobacco as we do
in this county and the average OF
wheat suwn this fall is rather small.
Farmers say that the first frost caught
great deal of tobacco in the field
but the damage done was slight.
Owing to the drouth corn crops were
cut pretty short and those of our par
ty went on the Cumberland river and
back, report that the further they
got towards the river the less corn
there was.
AS consequence that country will
not produce much bacon next year.
But after twenty mile trip from
nine o'clock this morning until foul
o'clock this evening, through rail-
) and mud a good fire is enjoyable.
But oh! let the wind blow; let thu
rain fall 4; let it be wet or dry or no

Warren bloodied OLeary's face in

In the twelfth O'Leary committed a

was a good deal of kicking over the
