Free Coinage Defeated.

Mr.. BANDS bill for the free coinage of silver
has been defeated in the House by 81 majority
There were 30 Republican and 96 Democratic
votes for the bill while 80 Republicans and II
Democrats voted against it. OF this measure
Mr.. Hewitt (Dem.) of n. Y, said that its pas
sage would confscate one-ffth of the aecumu-
lated savings of the working classes. amount-
600. In other words, it would wipe out $780,
100000 of their savings. The effect of the bill
would be to reduce the wages of labor twenty
per cent. which, in the present state of the
business of the country, would be hardship
so grievous that no legislator, no man of busi-
ness, no man with heart in his body, ought to
venture to advocate it.
That this bill was defeated, even by so mar
row a majority, is cause for congratuation.
The wonder is that it should have received so
large vote. Under this bill any holder of
silver bullion could take 412 1-2 grains nine
tenths fine, worth 10 cents in the market, to a
government mint, and receive a silver dollar,
whereas under existing laws the government
buys the bullion and the profit inures to the
people instead of to the owners of silver mines,
The present indications are that nothing will
be done the present session regarding silver,
although the Presidents recommendation for "a
temporary suspension of coinage ought GER
tainly to be carried into effect. If this is not
done we may see gold at premium and then
it will be boarded and shipped out of the coun-
try and we shall be loaded down with a de-
preciated silver currency.
