They said they wanted to create higher

higher prices. OF course IT would II II was pad
money. The less value there is In circulating
medium Of course the more Of II is required to
buy with But what good does II do man TO
obtain a dollar and a half. where now he has
only a dollar to buy something that is now worth
a dollar If. straghtway, and as the intended
result of his increased supply Of money the price
of the thing he wants is going to rise from
dollar 10 a dollar and a half? These questions
did not even interest the Southern and western
Democrats To all arguments they had the one
reply-that now all the money was In the hands
OF the New-York banks. and If the people were
only allowed TO make their money they
could get along without the banks. The fact
that their scheme was a scheme 10 destroy credlt
and to demoraze trade did not bother them In
the least II would hurt New-York they said
and therefore it must help the rest OF the
country.
And this idea. that by some subtle process
they would be more prosperous if they could only
render the rest of the country less so, ran
through everything they did 1t was the heart
and purpose Of their ant-option BILL a measure
aimed to destroy he cotton and produce ex-
changes and TO put an end to the modern sys-
tenn by which the crops OF the country are
marketed. They had the idea that the offsets
contained in that sort Of future trading which
was settled, not by the delivery of goods. but by
the payment Of the difference between he price
Of the goods at the time Of the purchase and
their price at the maturity Of the contract In
yolved what they called fictitious sales That
L. they thought that on these exchanges IL re-
uuired only one to make a bargain; that people
sold things withou; anybody else ever buying
them and tfat such sales reduced prices. Per-
haps such sales would have such an effect II
they ever occurred. But as they couldn't oc-
cur there was no occasi,n for worry They were
Democrats--men who held that the Government
had nothing to do with the matter OF liking the
keen prices up or To put prices down. They
had passed a Free-Trade tariff bill based on that
theory and on the further theory that the lowest
price ought to be the ruling price. But disre-
rarding this record they were now contendlng
that the hghes prize ought 10 be the ruling
price, and that 1t was their duty as legislature
"a see TO IL that the highest price prevailed All
these things were undertaken In response 10

Later News from Greece Detailing tho
Destruction by the Late Earthquakes.
ATHENS, April 30 The latest. reports
from Atalanta say that on Friday sos
shocks of earthquake were felt there
in eight hours. For two hours the
trembling of the earth was almost con.
tinuous. For radius of three and a
half miles, on every side of the town,
the fields and highways have been torn
with deep assures. The sea has en-
croached upon the shore about sixty
feet.
Vast masses of rock have been loOs-
ened in the mountains and have rolled
down into the lowlands. The people
were warned almost constantly on
Friday and Saturday by rumbling and
loud reports under the mountain sides.
The shores of the large island Of Eu-
boca, which lies off the coast BOetia
and Attica, has sunk six feet and a
half. The Aidipso sulphur SPRINGS are
emitting torrents of boiling water.
Dispatches from all parts of the
kingdom indicate that former reports
of death and damage to property have
underestimated the losses. The list of
dead and injured grows hourly. The
misery in the smaller towns of the
stricken districts is extreme. Hundreds
who were prosperous hOuseholdcrs be
fore the earthquakes, are now without
food and shelter for their families and
are begging for help. The govern
ment continues to do all in its power
to relieve the suffering, but the bur
len is beyond its means, and scores of
families are already on the verge of
starvation.
