The Nashville Review holds up the
Treasury defaIcatiOn in Tennessee,
some years ago, as justification or
defense of Quay's rascality in Penn
sylyania. The difference is, Tennes-
see Democracy prosecuted and pun
ished the offending officer, while
Quay's Republican friends paid his
defalcation, reelected him and gave
him the second chance to steal the
States money for speculation. In the
last instance he was successful, and
they then elected him to the United
States Senate and made him chair
man of the National Republican Ex-
ecutive Committee. Polk was, at
heart, an honest man, but was over
come by his friends, dissipation and
speculation. Quay is a villain,
every inch of him, if half that is pub
lished of him is true.

Result of the Silver Discussion.

According to II. G. Dun q Co.'s re-
port of trade for the past week, near
ly all the domestic markets are influ-
enced by the prospect of an expan-
sion of circulation based on silver.
Silver has advanced two cents per
ounce, wheat two and a quarter
cents per bushel, oats three cents,
coffee and oil have a cent each, cot
ton sixteenth, pork twenty-five
cents per barrel, and all the leading
stocks have been strong. Grain ex-
ports have increased, notwithstand-
ing the advance in price. This goes
to show what would be the effect of
free coinage and what is needed to
relieve the agricultural depression
which affects the entire trade of the
country.

MUST GO BACK 70 CHINA.


Nineteen sneaking Celestials Ordered
Returned to Their Native Country,
WASHINGTON, April %. Attorney
General Miller informed the treasury de-
partment, under date of April 10, that
there are nineteen Cinnamon now in the
custody of The United States marshal of
Washington who were arrested and tried
for coming into the United States in
violation of the Chinese exclusion act.
He recommended, in accordance with the
suggestion from the secretary of state,
that, notwithstanding the pre-
sumption that these Cinnamon en-
tered the United States across the
British border that they be returned to
China at the governments expense, for
the reason that they could not be re-
turned to British territory without pay
ment of head tax of $50 each; and
even then might probably again
evade the vigilance of the United
States officers and return to
this country. Secretary Window has
adopted the recommendation and has in
structed the collector of customs at Port
Townsend to see that the men are re-
turned to China in the most economical
way by sailing or other vessel, bound
direct for that country without touching
at any American port en- route.

The Silver bill agreed upon by the
Republican caucus and heralded to
the country as compromise meas
ure which meets the demand of free
coinage advocates, is nothing but the
Window bill worked over and put
in different shape, and is an artful
fraud and deception which means to
destroy the.money value of silver as
a circulating medium inferior to
gold. The certificates are to be re-
deemable in such currency as the
government may choose, and are to
be left in the hands of the gold
sharks to fix its value and currency
for its redemption. 1t is fraud and
the silver men should strip it of all
deception.

A Man of Iron Narva.

AUBURN, N. Y, April 2S.-Kemmler,
the man who is condemned to die by
electricity this week, shows no signs Of
weakening, in truth he seems to note all
proceedings and final arrangements
with an air of abandon that shows him
to be man of almost iron nerve. He
does not allow himself to contemplate
his fate, but busies himself in wrestling,
singing, writing his autograph and
listening to his keeper read from the
Bible or some popular periodical, He
takes part in religious services daily and
manifests fervor that is surprising to
others who participate.
