MY LORD Is PLEASED.

London, Nov. o-Wha! is probably the
most brilliant of ali functions in Eng

place this evening. 1t VIII be memor.
able even to Americans, BY reason OF
the following remarkable uuerance Of
Lord Salisbury. who. in the presence Of
goo guests. including United States Am
bassador Choate, the members of the
British cabinet and many Of the leading
men Of England. spoke as follows of the
American election:
1--WE believe that the cause which h, S
won is the cause Of civilization and com.
mercial honor. We believe those priI-
ciples to be at the root of all prospe rl,y
and all progress IN the world. There
fore, we claim that we have as much
right to rejoice in what has taken place
as the distinguished gentleman referring
to Mr. Choate) who sits at my side"
This was followed by loud and pro
longed cheering, which made the gold
plate on the oaken shelves shlver and
the great rafters Of the Guild hall ring
and ring again.
Lord Salisbury's lncurslon into the la
tional politics of the United States was
preceded by an apology. in the course
of which he said:
"One of the circumstances which graf
fled me most during the past year has
been the hearty feeling displayed be
tween this country and the United States
hope Mr. Choate will forgive if there i:
any irregularty in my expression. 1t is
quite wrong for secretary of state tc
make any observations with respect tc
the International politics of anothe,
country, but am soon TO give up my Of
nee and, in view of this abandonment
which is close at hand, hope Mr. Choate
will forgive ME for expressing the su
preme satisfaction with which all OF US
have heard of what has taken place in
the Unled States"
Mr. Choate, replying few minutes
later to the toast of the diplomatic corps
declared that Lord Salisbury had stated
with such truth, simplicity and earnest
ness the result of the election that he
(ChoAt would not attempt to add to IT,
although he would venture to congratu
late the noble lord upon the fact that his
remarks had been made after instead OF
before the election. (Laughter.)

Some of our Republican friends are
not willing to allow g~reepbacks to be
circulated as money. They say that
there must be something back of it.
The national banks are willing to pay a
premium Cd government bonds that
draw interest and there is nothing back
of the bonds any more than there is to
the greenbacks. The bonds are prom
Uses to pay at some future time and
drawing interest the debt becomes
larger. yet they sell at a premium. No
one doubts the ability of the govern
ment to pay, o questions what is back
of the bonds. Nor does any man ques-
ton the ability of the government to
pay the greenbacks, but use foolishly
as argument. that there is nothing back
of the greenbacks. Our government
has stood for nearly 1874 years and has
not yet repudiated a single, debt, while
many national banks have gone down.
