To the Editor of The Chicaga Tridune: Cmicavo, Nov. 25,~The Atdormanio talk abont “ niparian righta" in connection with tho sale of tho threo blocks of the Lakoe-Front is simply a part of the game of biuff which the Aldonnanie ring i1 playing. Whon the Aldermen requiro thiat the railroads in purchasing the ground shall rosign all rights they may hava acquired in tho pest, or may yot acquire in tho future, aa to the waler front, they offer eimply a dicker ; that is, thoy want to trado sometbing—three blocks of Iand—for something which the railrosds may hava in tho shapo of riparian nights, The offer of tho rulroads i3 not to trade, bnt to buy.5They are willing, it is reported, to nccopt & quit-claim deed from the citv for the property (which 1a all tho cily can givo) without ~any satipula- tion ona way or tho other ss to riparian rights.” If the city has any rights in that regard it will retaln thom, a8 tho iaifroad company does not auk It to cede thoso rights. ‘The oxtent thoreof is & question for future de- termiuation, * Bomo good Iawyera hold that tho ripanian rights go with the foe simple, aud the city's titla to this gronnd was never in feo mim- Pplo, but was a part of s tract of land given by the United Htates to the Htato of Lilinois, and set apart by the State for a public purpose, 1f the railroads buy the property, end any question 88 to ripariau rights arises, it will be a question a8 batwoen tho railrosds and the United Siates 88 to a part of it, and botweon the rallroads and tho Stato as to nnothor part, 1f the city set up any riparian claims, it wonld have to con- teat them, not with the reilroads alone, but with all theso partics. It fa ndiculous, thorefore, to ask of tho railroads a cession of contingent rights which would bo of no bonefit to tho city, On the other hand, the railroads will take a quit-claim deed withont ssking tho city to code any of its rights outside shio pier. ‘Llio objection of Mr. Hoyno for himself, and on the part of his clionts, "is not any better fouuded than the Aldermanic point on the mw— ninn rights, If tho railroads, after acquiring theso three blocks, should bo porsessod of the right, and procoed to exorciso it, of making docks, and piors, sod slips, and bullding ware- housces, 1t fs not llkll; that they would drain our over-crowded viver of its overflowing commerco, It in not likely that they would bo ablo to do this any faster than in keeping withi the accrotion of Chicago's commerco, Now ond for somo years past sll sorls of plans have boon davised for taking caro of tho exceas of busineas which the Chicago Rivor cannot sc- cowmodato. The danger is not, thoreforo, ¢ithor imminent or serious that the ealo of the Lake-Front Smpurl.y will ruin all the dock property 1o Chicago, It is not likely, on the othor hand, that tho United Biates Governmont, which has cstablished a barbor of refuge in {front of thin property, will permit tho Iilinols Central Ilailroad to seize the water frontags be- yond tho tracks bordering on tha three blocke in question ; but, if 1t should allow this, the rail- rond haa the same right to do it now aa it will have aftor buylug the three blocks, for it al- ready owns ~ the strip of land on which tho tracks aro situated, and which s botwoon ihe water' and the proper- ty which it offers to purchass. Having tols wa~ ter frontaca where thoir tracks are, tho railroads could proceed now in the same way aa they pro- coeded north of Randolnh atreet, unlesa stopped by the United Statos Govoramont. Tue scquire- meot of the thros blocks lying west of thelr tracks would give them no rights in this regard which thoy hnve not now, Thera is o vast difforenco, of courne, between the objecction urged by the Aldormanic ring aud by 3fr. Hoyno for Lia clisnts, in that the former only desito to use riparian righta ss s meaos of blackmail, while the lattor sra probably in ear- pest. But if tho property-ownera whom Mr. Hoyno roprosents revive thelr opposition, and successfully dofeat the purpose of selhing thoso threo blocks, the responsibility of depriving tho city of $800,000, which i sorely mecded, of incresing the taxes to build a Court-House, and of continying tne present idle and unremuner- ative condition of their own nrroperty on Mich. igan avenue, will bo upon their own’ aliculders, 1t will be a foollsh thing_to do, whother rogard- ed from a private ar publio Jolnl of viow. The publio certainly needa the 800,000, and does not need the three idls blacks which lie north of the Lxposition Buitding, and are not even available for park purposes. ' Aa tothe Michigan avenus property opposita these thros blocks, the erec- tion of a fine depat there in about tho ouly thing that can redoem It. Thoe propuorty i at proseut valuoless, both aa residance and as businosa prop- orty. It can never be residencs property, but it may bo made good business property many yosrs soonor by the erection of s depot than it wfll ba without the 1mprovement of tho Lake-Front, A LAKE-FRONT Tax-Paven, BATULDAY PAYMENTS.

ZNDY VINCENT, IMPROVING THE CURRENCY. T the Editor of The Chicago Triduna : Davexrornr, Ia., Nov. 20.—Among the many doctors who proposa to improve our currency, I venture the following propositions : 1. Congreen to repeal ths Legal-Tendar sct as to al} debts contracted prior to that act, 2. For all debts contracted on aud sfier the 18t day of July, 1876, gold and silver to be agala 1sgal-tender, na bofora the Logal-Tonder act, ox- cept when partica expressly otherwiso agree. 3. Iatornal revenne to bo pagabls only in logal-tendor notes, of which, from July 1. 1876, to July 1, 1877, 100,000,000 aball bo withdrawn from circulation and cancalod. The firat proposition is an act of juatico snd equity towards creditors, The Legal-Tonder act, justifiable &8 n war-monsnre during the War and for pome time thereafter, is not justitiable now, Lngland resumed specio-payment fn 1819, four years after very oxpenaive wars, from 1793 to 1815, Io Irance, paper-money Ia now, four yoara after peace, equal to gold. Debtors who, oxpreesadly or impliedly, promised gold, ougnt to pay it uow, and to be eatisfled with the galn on doprectated currency pald for lnlerest up to this time. ‘Lho sacond proposition needs no Justification, ‘The rensons for the principal purposs of the third proposition bave been repeatedly and very wbly explatned by Tur Citoaao Taisvxe. We ought to got rid of cur depreoiated currency na quickly aa-possible, becauso wo now have to pay more for our jmporls and get less for onr ox- ports,—the traders charging an {nsurance-pre. indum sgalust poesiblo losses from the riso and 1all on gold, We would, moreover, be able to reduco tho interest on our national deht, if European capitalists had more confidence that, under oar democratis form of Government, demagogues could not get into power by de- luding icnorant peoplo withs vain hopes from the izsue of & vast amouot of paper-money. To obe viato all thase uvils, & specdy resumpilon of epe- clo {8 nocossary, and my third proposition (s thought to bns{:mpor mieasure to obtain that vory desirablo objeat.

The withdrawal and cancollation of 100,000, 000 of grecubacks will probably make the b snce pur with gold, if greenbacks remain logal- teuder, and the only currency to pay lnternal revenne. If the Govornment, as lonj backs are not ag rnnd a8 gold, would cease to Dav any more of the national debt, bearing inter- est and uot yet due, a loau, to supply the with- drawn ourrency, would hard] bo necessary. 1f, howevor, & loan of $100,000,000 shiould ba ro- quired to effeot specio-resumption, that would be & small sacrifice to obtain o&mu object, worth in money miore than §100,000,000, though, also, tho honor and the good uame of the Unite.

Boatan Jowrnid, Nov. 1%, Ths timo has come for tho couslderation of dofinits plans for the resumption of Bpecie-pay- monts—~the country haviug agreed to accom- plish tht reanlt, and Congress Laving already adopted & genoral initintory enactment, Thn next sesyion onght to tako o atop forward, and make practical provision for canyiug out the will of the poople. It ia juat the occaston, then, Tor exporienced mon who bave given much thought to the aubject, and for Boards of Trade and othior business organizations, to pre- paro plans which may be laid before tho ap- propriate commitiess of Congress, to sorve a8 banes for doliberation and ultl- timato legislation. Of thoso already bub- lished, ono of tho most meritorions, as it sacms to us, Is that offered by Tur Caicado Inisuye. 1t rightly premises that the only opposition nosw mado to the resumption of specie-payments which is warth considering, Is that which comes from the debtor clues of business mep, who naturally do not want to be compolled to pay 15 conts moro on the dollar in matisfaction of their debts than they will have to pay if tho cur- renoy romaina at its presont value. Tlis would bo a'real hardship, which ought to bo in equity rovided ngainst, if it can be dono without in~ ury to other classea and without delaying the preat act of national justics, Taw Tsinuxe, therafora, proposes the Tollowing : Let Congrens thin winter enact : 1. That the holdersof greenbscks, npon presenta- tion of them tothe Treasury Depattient, be entitled to recelve in exchango therefor 4 or 3.63 per cent gold + bous, of the denomination of £30 or $100, or any mul- tiple of $100. 1, That these bonds, having thirty years to rnn fromi the dato of {eanie, bo mado legal-teniers fu tho payment 3!]-11 1:%? aud contracta made before, eay tho 4th of uly, 1876, 5 That tho legal-tendor for all contracts made afior that date shall Lo the coin of the United Btates, except when payment ollierwisc may bo expressly stipulsted, Tho result of such legislation, it will bo soen, will bo to Imt. all now busineas on a npecia basis, although the exiatiug currenay will continue to be uaed at its coin value, that I8, it will no looger Borve na n mossure of values, but will take its truo positton as by comparimon with tho markets of the world. Aa Tug Cittoaco TRinuNE ways: For all purposes of payment of debts the grennbacks in thetr now form of ‘bonda will bo available, The bonds themselves will, at present prices of woney, be worth about 80 to £5 conts on the dollar in coln, ~Tho Government 5 per cents arc worth par, and the 3.1 per centa wonld range from 80 to 85 ccnts, They wiil conitnus tn be bonght and sold us tho currency now is {or the purposs of making payments of dabt, and will pass from hand to hand as cucrency (n all teansactions over §50, or thirty years ticss bonda or;the unfunded carroncy will continie to nerve as n legal-touder for deobls already contracted, and that period will cover all oxisting labilities of individunls, corporations, and muoicipal governmenta.

Moulton, The probabilities are that Plymouth Church will not join in the call, aud many of its mombers boliove thas, if tho Council 18 held, tho subjoct matter of the scandal will not hq{;;:onn into, but that the aitention of that dy will bo dovoted to dotermintog it the dropping of Mra.

When n boy he loat his father, and cmbarked oo a small sailing ves- #el for England, whero he entered tho servios of an unclo of his, changed his Jowish name of Baruch for the more Gorman-sounding ons of Bartol Heinrich, and later on, haying passed to tho Anglican Church, for the English one of Bothel Houry, After baving triad various kinds of ocoupations, he becsme a roportor on tha London pross, marriod a Misa Mary Ann Swana, and salled in 1848 for New Yorx. Within two yoars ho bad nccumulated thero, by wepec- ulations in goods damaged by sen, & gof- ficient amount of money to star: in London o commercial nowspsper and a mouthly magazine, In tho moantime be obtained somowhere the diploma of a doctor, and retarned to Morlin in 1836, to start au 1llustrated peony paper, and become an {usurance brokor and Lhe reprosonts- tive of several English insurance compantes, Tho fact of his huviog passed to tho Anglican Cburch, baviog married an English girl, and hav- ing spent many yoars in London, gave him the poasibility of using Englieh capitalists’ preatigo in Borlin, and to ovtata suflicient credit among ao0mo of them to be able tobesome the contractar of the Tilait-Intoraburg Railroad, on the frontior of Rusuian and Prussiun Poland. Onco atarted in that line of business, his gonius soon put him in a position to obtaln a concession for the Soutkesstern Prussian iine, a concossion which ho ounmingly surcondered to the Engtish and QGerman capitalisis, who gave him the first monoy, and he thus secured himself not only an fucreased credit, but the repntation of ove of tho most honest aud gratefol men. This was of immenze sdvantage to & man of Btrousberg's capacity. Ile &t obco became one of the greatest railway contractors, and ina few years had buoilt slx important ralway linos in Prusals, the wholo of tho uorthera net of the Hungarian railways, all the Roumanian nuduA and the Russian liue of Grajowo Bralyatolr. About 1847 he wan considered to havo ovar 500,000,000 of capital engeged in his undertakings, and aoveral hundred thousand workmen were dependent up- on him, Rallway-construotion was no lougoer his only businces. e apocuiated iargely In real os- tate, had rail-factory at Dortmund, mines in Neustadt, a gigantic eugine-tactory at Hanover, and immenso 1ron.works at Altwasser, on the south side of Antwerp, whore quite & new anb- urb srose, bearing the nama of Port Stronsberg. He coustrnctod in Berlin tho great cattlo-market, and an incaloulable number of buildings, of all descriptions, both publio and private, Not satiatied with thesa gigantio transactions, he bought sod improved about a dozen of the largest taudod estates in East and Weat Prussia, in Posen, in Drandenburg, and in Russian Poland, most of thom boiug scats of the old aristooratio families of that utill medimval re- glon. But his favorite country-seat was Zolrow, an ancient sobloss of one of tho oldeat Ozech families. It is there, in Austrian territory, that Herousberg seemed rosolved to oatablish his “mui soad ; and soveral imillions of monvy biavo beeu spent in the purchase and embelligh- oot of this gorgeous realdence. ‘The tinancinl dificulties of the wondor doctor bogan some Bovon years ago, but with tho vast means at his dispossl he was ablo to face thom, and an arrangement was made with the leading creditora o walt for tholr monoy unty all the grust undnu\knnga then on tand "had been car- ried out.

Thie waa fu 1868, and, up to the outbreak of the war, Dr. Strousberg was not hesrd ofexcept In conuection with the liquida- tlon of bis immense concern, The war and the French milliard sssomed to open a new era in his life.

T'ho soandalous altair of the Roumsoia Rallroad coupons, which the Government of that priacipslity refused to Pay on scconst of the frauds perpetrated by Strouaberg in the construction of the roads, was now forgotten.
