FOR A GOLD STANDARD.

SmLA, Aug. 3l.-Sir David Barbour,
Financial Secretary. replying TO . ques-
tion al the meeting Of the Indian Coun-
ell. said the correspondence with the
Secretary Of State for India 10 London
about sales Of Council bills below l6d.
wssstill in progress. and could not at this
time be published. He explained that
the Indian mints were closed, but this
vas a slack season, and there had been
heavy imports OF silver before the close
Of the mints, with large transfers Of ru.
nee paper from London TO Calcutta,
which retarded the effectiveness OF the
remedial measure adopted by the Indian
Government. he regretted the iuctu.
alton OF values as . consequent evil. but
believed that nothing had occurred to
Justify the assertion that . gold standard
cannot be effectively established.
This lets the cat ont Of the bag and is
clear proof that John Bull has deliber-
stely played Uncle Sam . trick. Eng
land was no doubt consulted beforehand
on the repeal Of the Sherman law and
took good care to have enough silver on
hand to tide over the bad effect which
would be sure TO follow the closing OF
the Indian mints. Hence she loaded
India down with silver and rupee paper
in order that the effect Of closing the
mints woald not be immediately felt by
the Indian people. In the meantime
Mr.. Cleveland hastily called an extra
session Of Congress and is now urging by
every means In his power the repeal OF
. law that lie more obnoxious to England
than ever to the gold bugs Of America.
No one upon studying the matter can
see where either England or India can
be benefited by the closing OF the In
dian minis to individual coinage, but on
the other hand il is plain that England
gains by the debasement Of silver in the
use she has for the metal in the pur.
chase of Indian products. The closing
Of the Indian mints is therefore only
temporary, and as soon as England's
purpose is effected they will doubtless
be again thrown open to free coinage of
silver as before.

Secretary Calisle says it would cost
SIP. 5000, 900 to recoin our silver money
at . ratio Of 20 to l and that it would
take nine years to coin $50. 900, 900
ounces Of silver bullion in the United
States Treasury. Senator Vest shows
that recoinage could be had at q profit Of
SIS. 600. 600 to the Treasury, and the
San Francisco Chronicle proves by the
capacity of our mints that $50, 600. 600
ounces of silver can be coined in two
years. As . fnancier, Carlisle is q dismal
failure.
