FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, '1878. Greonbacks at the New York Stock Ex- change yesterdsy closed at 093, Amorican agricultural machinery in Franco has captured eight out of the eleven prizes offered by the Agricultural Socioty for excep. tional merit, whilo the United Biates agricul- tural display in the Exhibition Lns been awarded a diploma 'o! honor, and the United Blates cdacational exhibit o gold medal, Tho celebrated Srurars and Board of ‘Irade litigntion is'once mors in an interest- ing condition, Judge Dicker baving yester. day {ssued o writ of supersedeas, the effect of which is to reinatate the injunction, recently dissolved by Judge FARweLL, restraining tho Dircctors of tho Board from in nuy way re- slricting tho exercise by 8tunozs of his rights and privileges on 'Chay Anotler good day's work was done yestor- day by tho Court of Olsms at Springfleld in tho rojoction of a large number of anti. quated desands upon the State Treasury under au application of the Btatute of Lim- itations. It begins to be a matter of grave suspicion among the claim-speculators who lobbied through the last Legislature tho law creating this Court whethor they are able to realize onything worth mentioning out of their success. In the Sixth lowa Distrlot the Democrata havo jnst onded a bitter fight on the quos- tion of surrendering to tho Greenbnckers by shoulderiyg their nominee for Congress. By 1 vote of U8 to 22 the Convention decided to make no nomination, and the mirvority are inlensely disgusied at this exhibition of cow- ardly wenkness, Judge SaursoN, who las been ronominated by the Republicnns, was clected in 1876 by a majority of 4,000 over his Demociatic opponeut, and the indica- tions aro that ho wi'l polish off tho Groen- back-Deinceiatic coalition in equally vigorous siylo this year. L ——— An pdditional roason why brethren should dwell together in unity—especially Method- . ist Lrethrenat 8t. Lonis—is aflorded by the remarkablo developments growing out of o prosale law suit between Loaax D, Daxenon, tho reverend publisher of the Christiun Ad- vocatent Bt. Louis, aud anothier pillar of the Church named CuaMprns, over certain righls, probably involving a very Inconsldor. nblo sum of money. "Tho uncharitablencss engendered by this action at law lys allat oaco set loowe, tho tongues of Dasenon’s encmies, and o sickening and seemiugly ir- refutabio narrativa of seduction and double wmurder, throngh unskilled abertion, 1s now mado publie, which, ¥ regularly substan. tinted bofore a criminal court, should cone rign thix Ohiristian advoeate to extended work iu the Btate Penitentiary. The proposition submitted to the Com- mon Council last evening by Tomrinson & Ryep, the stone-contractors an the City- 1% Building, names 2501,000 as the in- crensed cost of wubstituting Lemont for Bedford stone. That would be- the figuro provided the chauge wers 1o bo made with- out deluy ; Lut for overy day that the work Roes forward undgy the present contract on 1o building, 1n thS stone-yards, and at the quorcy, the exponse will be incrensed ot a liesvy rute, and before the fight in tho Council and tho courts could be ended, A victory for the Lemont.Stone Ring, if the coutest should so terminato, would involve ua sggregato cost to the taxpayors nearly donble the prescut catimated fucroase, The quustion for the Council now to decide is, whether the people who pay she taxes can #fford that kind of a vietory, B Avexavprs M. Sreruss has triumphed completely over the Bourbon Duplacables who undertook to bringabout the permanent retirement of the *old wau eloquent” on account of his outspoken condemuation of tha Mexican plan embodied fu the Porres resolutions. He predicted that the inveuti. gotion of the President's tille would result either in & ridiculous farce or ‘a torrible tragedy, and opposed it a8 mischievoos and daugerous. This led fo the formation in tho Eighth Georgia District of s cabal (o defeat tho remowmination of Mr, Brerurxs, and for a time it seewed likely to succeed; Lut the defiant declaration of az intention to go before the people as an lmlqungleuc cuudidate in the event that the movement: against biw proved succesaful turned the tido in his favor aud frigitened the con. spirators who were trying to pack: the Couns vention for Lis defest, and Mr. Srxruens yusterday had the satisfaction of pompleting tlo discomtityre of Lis enemies by receiving the regular uomipation for re-slection to Congress. A case of augelio politics was developed in the Colofudo Gregubacs Conventlon. . Mr, A. J. Curttespey, the powinea for Buperin. tendent of Publio Iostruction, wept into raptores over that partof the platform which demunds that the Governwent aball viclate its contracis and dishonor its obligations by the payment of the entire interest-boaring debt in abgolute money, issned “in suficient voluma for the entire npednof {rade.” This, to tho mind of CmirrevpEN, Was Aimply ecsintic. Ho declared in his speech that h.. ‘was not ashamed of repudiation; on tho cot- trary, saidhe: “'If I wera sbout to die fo- day I would cast my vote for repudiation, It 1 wara on my way to Hoaven I would drop & ballot for repudiation. If I counld bave any {nfluence with the angels, such A shower of ballots in favor of repudiation as wonld fall would astopish the world, I would free the peoplo in this way.” This is what they all menn, so far as repudiation js concernod ; but it i only occasionally that thers isfonnd among the Greenbackers anybody stnpid enough to say so oxplicitl; ——— Reports from the fever-infeoted districts this morning are of a serious and alarming character, The number of casen hna largely inoreased in Memphis, so much so that all the surronnding towns have imstituted a striot quarantine sgainst that oity, and sev. ernl business firma have suspended opera- tions, The condition of affairs at Grenada, Miss., is trly pitiable. One-third of the people romaining in the town are suffering from the fell disese, and of the membors of the City Government but one remnins—1ilie City Marshal—who is capable of attending to his official dutics, Tho Mayor is reported to be in a dying condition. The tale of this sadly-afilicted community is one which np- pasla eloguently to the charitably-disposed throughout the country. Throughont Mis- slssippi and Tennonseo the alarm iz hourly increasing. 'Trains from Memphis and below are crowded with fugitives who oro making thelr way with all possible speed, some secking rafety in the mountain dis- tricts and others flocking to Nashville, where their arrival by hundreds is causing great uneasiness. Roports from New Or- leans {odicate that the dizease has renched its hight in that oity, One prominent feature of the malndy thore i that o large proportion of the victims are children under 12 years of age. ANOTHER LABOR-REFORM FOLLY. The National Greenbackers of Connecti- cut, in their State Convontion on Wednesday Inst, adopted o platform fuil of glittering generalities, one plank of whick calls for the ** establishment of Labor Burcaus, Btate ns well as Natlonal, for thecollection of atatistics relative to the producing classes, tho same to Lo under the manngement “‘of compotent men known to be in sympathy with the de- sign for which sald Bureau is created, that wise, jndicious, aud equitable laws may be cnacted in regard to hours of labor and em- ployment of minors in manufacturing eatab. lishmonts.” ‘Tho call made by this plank con. taiua nothing new, A Bureau of Btatistics is the storeotyped outery of avery convention of tho National-Labor party, only in_ this case tho Connccticut fint-lunatics want thirty-cight of them in the States, twelve in the Territories, aud ona hugo contral affair in Washington, the whole involving the crontion of offices for a swarm of office- sackors and the ontlay of millions ef dollars in organizing and keeping uscless Bureaus In operation, It would seem, therefors, from his universal howl for Bureaus of Bla- tiatics, that theso men fancy they will rake up some facts or fignres that somes one will not like or wants to kespconcealed, and, as the collection of the statistica is to ba mado by men in *sympathy " with tha Nation- al Fiatlsts and so-called Labor-Reformers, it is evidont that this * gomo one ” i the employers. Now what atatistics do they pro- pose to collect that are not’ alroady familiar to cmployes? What facts can thoy pousibly find that have not already been found ? What atatlstics can they publleh that are not already published overy yenr in tho news- paper raviaws of manufacturing, trade, and commierce? Suppose, for iustance, that a Bureau wero establislied in this State. The menin “ sympathy " with the movement would colloct tho statistics of wnges for different alasses of labor, and would find that skilled Inbor was recelving one price and mere manua! labor, snother, sad different grades of wnges betweon theso two, They might ascertnin the cost of production nnd the sell ing pricea ; the number of mon at work and out of work; fhose willing to labor if they could find work and dhose who would not labor under any circumstsnces; the number ot hours employed in labor, and, when they lave done it, whnt of it? They have not found auything that was not known bofore, and they havo thrown away thousands of dollars to accomplish aneedivay work that could Lave been performoed by clerk in the oflico of Secrotary of State, with no further expouse than the fssue of circu- 1sra addressod to Trades-Unions. In two years from now the whole country will wwarm with tho Governmont consns-takers who will rake and scrape every branch of business and department of kuowledge in quest of ntatistics without additional expense to the cost of the consus, except printing. Now,will not soma of these Lutor-Reformery indicate what statistics they propose ‘e gather in their Bureaus that aro not wiready provided for in Btato reports, in the census tables, and in the columns of {ho newspaper? What figures do they want that au ordinary newspaper roporter cannot find for them without half trymg? Do they want - statistics of prices, wages, hours of labor, cost.of production, cropy, awount of wanufactures, roliof agencies, hog chol. era, grasshopper ravagen, bills of mortality, religious denominations, education, publis bLealth, property listed for taxation, bank. ruptcies, elections, building improvements, fives, murders, or property destroyed and stolen by Commuuisty? There is not one of these forms of statistics that Is not already avallablo and open for the inspection of tuo Labor-Reforiaer, freo of exponso. What leguilntiondothey intend to bassupon their the statistics? Do they propose to abolish by statute the right of every man to contract Lis labor at any-price for any time Lo plesses? Will they legilate that a dull hsnd.worker shall receive just the same wages 88 the skillful man who works with haod oud head? Will they fix by law an srbitrary price at which products shall be sold, without auy regard {o the cost of pro. duotion or the demand for them? Wby are these men not honest enough to be explicit, apd announcothe statlstics they propose to collect aud the laws they would like to en. act? They seem to proceed upon the sup- position that ihe employiug classes are averse to statistics, Nolkiug can be farthor from the truth. There §s notking they would concenl,, There 8t no siatisticy they would suppress that do not javolve s wanlon and useless waste of monsy together. If we arp going into ‘statistics, bowever, let us go In thoroughly, and per. Lisps thesa labor-brawlera will get enough of them. In Massachusotts they have been Lowling that a hundred thousaud wen were out of ewplojmest, A Baieiu ‘Wus 0rjaue ized nndor tho ausplees of the State, and | competent men obtained the names of all persons ont of work in the State, and in & population of 1,650,000 it found there were but 14,000 ont of work instead of 100,000, It is the staple argnment of Burren, Keanver, Pouzroy, Voonnrrs, Cary, and other blatant demagognes of that sort, that thers are 3,000,000 unemployed workers in this count’y. Going over the whole country, including the agricultural regions of the Houth and Wost, whera those who are willing to work are at work, and the statistics will show that those who really want work and ean find none or only occasfonal jobs amonnt to less than 800,000, These Labor.Reformers might go far- ther, and, gotting down to a pursly politico-cconomical basis, collect statlatics of the actual carnings and expenses of business mon; of the costof production and what the product returns; of the wages, taxes, insurance, and ropairs he pays ont, the losses he sustains, and tha profit he receives. By reference to the Bankruptcy {Conrtis, the Assignees’ reports, and Sherifia' and Conatables’ sales, these Iabor.lunatics might find how eapital is melting away under the joint assault of hard times and of striking workingmon whose interests are identical with those of their employers, but wlo array themsolves in an attitudo of hostility to them. From the langnage of their resolu. tion, however, that men in sympathy with them shall condnct the statistics business, it is evident that tho only statistics thoy want are thoso that will euable them to *corral the employers aud grind them, Gop d-n them.” And thop, what? GREENBACKS AND “FIAT"” MONEY. There is an organlc differenco betwoen ¢ greenbacks,” the term genorally applied to the United States legal-tender notes, and the proposed flat monoey, which is too commeonly ignored. Thers is no doubt the inpression largely obtalns that the new *‘ National" party {9 merely in favor of the indefinite postponement of resumption and an in. creased issue of greonbacks, and it is nnder this improssion that the ** Nationals " have gained some sympathy and snpport which they would not enjoy if their aims and pur- poses were correctly understood. * Their theory really is that the constilutionsl power vested in Congresa ‘‘to coin monoy” ens- DLlea the National Legislature to stamp piecea of paper and theroby give thon just as much money value as gold or silver similarly stamped; thelr demand ia that the present greenbacks and National Bank notes, both of which are promises to poy, shall be obliterated, and that stamped pieces of psper, without any other limit than may be fixed by Congress from time to time, or rognlated by constilutional smend- ment at so much per eapita, sinll be the nb- solute aud exclurive ‘‘money" of this country. Certainly nothing under the nanie of monoy could be wore widely romoved from tho original or present stalusof the greonbacks than the proposed flat scrip, and tho original Greenbackers ought to have no more faith in the flat scrip than it commands from those who belleve that coin alone should be issued by the Government for cir- culating purposoes, « ‘Tho greenback was Lhe creation of the Re- publican party, Itisthe representative of a currency schome devised ats tuno whon the necessities of war forced the Govorn~ ment to suspend specio payments. +It was violently denounced by tho Democrats and Copporhoads at its birth because it was man- ifestly destined to ba one of the ngentsina vigorous prosecution of the War, Its lssue was afterwards justified and sustained by the Buapreme Court as & war measure, and it was held to be legal-tender up to the amount of $400,000,000, which was the limit plodged by Congress at the time it was forced upon the peoploas nlegal-tonder. The Demoorats continued to denounce 1t, and Dan Voor- unres, now one of the most bloviaut advo- oates of flat scrip, voted in favor of the Con- greasioual resolution mpproving MaCur- Loou's contraction messure, on the ground that the time had come when the pledge of redemption should be fulfilled by the Gov- ornment, Tho fulfillment was still postponed for a few yoars, but a law was passed in 187/ pledging resumption Jan, 3, 1879, snd now the very people who insisted that the Re- publioan party was for eleven years guilty of noglocting to fulfill its pledges are engagod in abusing tho Republican party becanse the promlse of redemption is to be kept. ‘The progress, or rather the decline and fall, from tho original greonback to the pres- ont delusion of absoluts or flit money has been by stagos. ‘Tlo movement began by demand- ing vast issuca of the Government notes, but ran up wsgainst the declsion of tho Bu. preme Court that thoy must be kept within the limit of $400,000,000. Then the inter. convertiblo bond was proposed, boginning at & projected 5 per cont interest, but sgreeing in the end upon 8,06 per cent per annum, Theso bonds were to be jssued by the Gov. ernmont on domand in exchange for greon. backs, and they were to bo redeemed on de- mand, with socrued juterest, whon green. backs were asked in exchauge., The thoory waos that the greocbacks would g0 1uto tbo bonds when thero was a supes- nbundance of clroulating medium, and that the bonds would seck the ‘Freasury and groenbacky come out inresponse to a genoral demand for more currency. Tur Tuibung demonstrated atthe time that such o measure wouwd rewult in suddon and overwhelming contraction, It is not necessary to repeat the arguments now, for the issue is dend, bur they sufficud to put & quietus to this phaso of the money question. Then camoe an era when the currency thoorists got their heads together and demanded a paper money “*based upon the faith and resources of the nation,” aud * rogulated fu volume accordiug to the dvmands of trade,” whatever that meant; but theso people contiuued to identi- fy thelr proposed schema with tho greonback system. More recently the demand was for a repeal of the Resuwption act, an Increase of the greenbacks by the gubstitution of greenbacks for the Natiopal Bunk notes; but Tox Ewixo aud the foremost Congressional advocates of retiring tha Nationa! Bunk cur. reucy were Lound toyecognize that the project «could not be carried out by substituting green- backs (L ¢, legal-tender notes) without run. nlugup agaiost the Supreme Court's decislon, sud the bill which they presentad ta.fou. gress was for the iusue of T'reasury notes not lugal-tender. Aleanwkile, the Leresy of a fial serlp, never Lo be redeemed, but recelving its value from the starmp of the Governwent sud forced upon ths people as legal-teuder, had gowed a footkold. People falicly call- ing themselves * Qreenbackers," and crgan- jzing themselves uuder the spurious snd fruudulent came of * Greenback Clabs,” bave been spreading this lunacy ; théy have estirely abandoned the usture and oughs to abandon the uame of greenback currency. The * Nationals” cow distinctly avow in their plotforius that their proposed currency 1% to rest solcly upon the flut of the Gov. ornmont, and not upon sny pledge that it shall ever bo redeemed, or cnrtontly Lo interchangeable, wilh money of intrinsic value. Somo of their Convenlions, as in Tadiann and Chicago, have made uso of the word flat in describing their kind of cur- rency, though th o term was first applied to it by Tnz Tmmuxs in contempt, and with the purposs of constantly indicating its anomalous and utterly worthloss charactor. Other of their Conventions, like that Leld in Connecticnt 6n Wednosday, spenk of the now curroncy ne ‘‘ absolnte money,” whicl means the rame thing, but avolds the taunt conveyed by the word flat. It is this absolnto or flat money which hea roceived the indorsoment of so many Democrats who formerly fouglit tho greenbacks (prom- ises to pay money) as unconstitutionnl. Tho 1ssne of this absurd, irredeemablo flat serip conld never be limited; not even o copstitntional amendment regulating the volume at 50 much a hiead could confine tho isane, for the very first issue wonld have a reduced purchasing valus as compared with the monoy it Is proposed to replace, and the greater the depreciation tho more it would ba necessary to issue. ‘The ¢lamor for. more serip would overtl¥ow any constitutional pro- vision, and it would be merely a question of asbort time when repndiation shonld be for- mally proclaimed, as, indced, it will e actually proclaimed whenever the Gavernment be- gins to issuo stampod bilaof paperas money in foll paymont of ita debts, and cndenvors to forco the people to receive thew in dis- charge of what is due them from private porsons, People who have believed in the groenbnck system can certalnly have no sympathy with this irresponsible, ridioulons, and immoral schomo of flat eurrency. KEARNEY'S IMPENDING FATE, Dexnis Keanwry, tho chiof hoodinm of the Pacific Coast, is becoming inflated with a sonso of his own importance. In his spocch at Lynn, Msss., ho indalged in moro than his usual eacrilege; ho announced bis intention ‘“to give the people wll tho hell they wnut here,” and added: *If Iam not going to accomplish anything, why do they make s0 much fuss over me? Why not leave ma slone and let mo die out?” Himply be- cause, Mr. Dexnny, the ensicst, speediest, and most effectiva way to kill you off is to ninke the mostof you while you flourish, You are ono of those porsons that only need rope cnongh tohang themsolves, and the peo- ple of this country want to deal it out to you as rapidly as possible. Yon are a glutton, and by feeding you plentifully yon will die the sooner, Mcreover, you are tho type of a cortain class of ignorant and audaclious creatures who are believod to be more orless dangorous to this country, andit in dosirable to mnko tho fullest exbibition of such & type. You ropresont cortnin insidi. ous and spurlous doctrines, and thoy are so obnoxions to good jndgment and sound morala when proclaimed in your illiterate and profano style that thero 18 o peculinr advantago in keeping you before the public as the bost possible Wwarning to the conservative classos of what they may expoot from mob-rule na proposed by tho Communists. It is espocially destrablo that you should havoe a full swing nt the working- men of the Eastern and Middle Btates, in ordor that thoy may understand what a dif- forent state of things oxists jn California, und learn that your partial success thero furnishes no encoursgoment for the growth of Communism throughout the country., It is of considerablo value to have you proclaim to the artisans and mechanics the extromo aims of Communism, becauso if thoy can thus foresce the chaos, demoralization, and suffering that are the inovitable rewults of the Communists’ romedy for what is now called bard times, they will abandon you and your pernicious counsel. It is inatructive to oll classes to find you, o pretonded Labor. Reformnor, going to Massachusetta to advocate the clection of n bloated capitalist and on old political hack like Bex ButLes, for the situation afforda n practical test of your sincority, It is advis- able to encourage you by giving yon as much notorioty ns possible, becauso there are yet two months of campaigning to be done in Massachusctts, and you have not the calibre to hold out o long, even with tho nasistance of your newspaper secrotary, You began too early, and even BuriEn lns Leen con. sirained to repudiate you in part; if your notorioty can only be kept up, he will for- swear you altogether, and curse the day yon aver left your favorite * sand-lota.” - Your ‘Tnarx-like self-sufliciency is n welcomo indi cation of your impending fate; for furthor particolars ask your secretary to tell you the fable of the frog that aspired to tha dimensions of the ox. THE COURT OF CLAINS, The Stato Claima Cormlssion, composed of Chief-Justice Caato and Circult-Judges Vanpxves and Goopseeep, now in sesuion at Springfield, rendered a most important opinion Wednesdny morning. Under the law creating this Comnission, its finding is only advisory, loaving it wholy with tho Goneral Ausombly whether the claims passed upon ahall bo pald or not. Tmmedintoly upon the creation of thia Commisslon, claims of the most singular and obsolete character began {o present themselves to the Auditor of Htate, who is.tho Clerk of the Commis. slon, Not only actual creditors, but helrs of creditors to tho second gon. eralion, aud lawyers wilh only cham. porty interests, besleged” the .

There s no flat money in France—not a frane, and has not been n cighty odd years. 2 Wo are not awaro of auy natlon having what Is advocated by tho *Natlonals” and known ns “fiat" or “* absolute' money. Ban Domingo has some kind of irredeemable cur- rency worth four or five cents on the dollar, and we belicve ono oF the South American Biates has o shinplaster currency worth a few cents on the dotlar, 3 ) 8. Oar fractlonal currency notes bore no rela- tlon whatever to the proposed *flat’! monoy. ‘The law under which they wero Issucd ordered “ the Secretary of the Treasury to make regu- lations for their redomption in such sums not over tive dollars as may appear Lo him expedi- ent.” Under this mandate of the luw many miilions of them were redeemed in grecn- backe. It was tho practice of oll the banks, horse ‘rallway companies, and othcrs recelying more fractfonals than thoy coulil yae, to make them up in 85 packages, and send them home for redemption lu legal-tondor inonay, But *fiat” scripls never to be re- doemed in money.

Thay have allowed the Interest on their bonds to defsult. Thele credit of course 1s niterly ruined, and they could not borrow a dollar from any eapitalist In tho world. Mexico 'has failed #o badly in pay- meut of her interest that her credit I pretty much destroyed. Turkey has not openly repudisted her bonds, but for three years past she bas not pald any futerest ou nfue-tenths of them; sho is trying to compromisc with her ereditors—nsking them to scale down the principal of tho debt and reduce tho interest. Her credit §s now where sho can- not borrow a dollar, except fromn her own sub- Jects by forco; a rovolver must bo held at thefr heads to make, them lend thelr Government mouey. . 7.
