The greatest vietory of thase elections s tho nsmrance thoy give that resumption will be earried out undor the law. Tha Seore- tary of the Treasury is propared for it and the counlry is prepared forit. In the faco of the popular protest of Tuesday, the pros- ent Congress will not dare, even if it have the strangth, to place any hindranco in the way of cxecuting the law. 'The Govern- mont will announce resumption on Jan. 1 noxt, under the terms of the law, and from that day the greenback dollar, the gold dollar, and the silver wollar will be on s par, one with another, and circulate o by side. The resnlt will be aun expan- sion of tha currency by bringing into active ciroulation the stock of coin that has been lidden awny theso seventeon years, and there will be a gradual growth by tho anuual con- tributions from the mines and mints to tho extont that more money can be employed. Then the Congreas just elcoted, which the Fiatists have endoavored to captare with tho nid of tho Democrats, will bo confronted with a currency actuslly on a specie basis, aud equal in value to any other currency in the world, Thoy will not dare to disturb it or destroy its character, They will not daro to declaro beforo the world a susponsion of spacio payments in timo of poacs, without provooation or’ excuse, and when tho reve- nues of the Government excoed its expenses. If it has not been possible to induce the péo- pla to avoid resumption whon actually de- luded by the habit of doaling in protested notes, it will not be possible to induce thom to saption » return to an irredeemabls and depreciated currency after a specie basis shall have beon firmly established. The groat advantage gaived by Tuesdoy'a eloction is tho elimination of tho flat ¢raze from palitics. The Ropublican party is now convinced that 1its insistence upon sound- mongy principles has pot only been Lionest. but the best policy. There have been a fow demsagoguos in tho party and a few unscrupulous news- papers profossing Republican principles that have encouraged the crazo for * absolute money " ; they have succeeded in weakening the party to some extent by inducing some oas agitator and pestiferous demagogue.

Thero secins to by a very gouoral impres- sjou abroad in this commauity that Mr. Lau- oeer ‘Tare, the involuutary caudidate for Congress in the Third Distrlat, Is defeated, and that My, Banogy, the Republican candi- nate, is not only elected, but bas had sufi- clent dlsvegard for Mr. Taxr's foelingsto rug his mojority up into the thousands, Tho impression s a carreot one, Bome- thing dropped on the Nopth Bide, andit dropped so beavily that Mr, Tazs wust have heaxd it, although he was not in town. ‘I'he result might bave been auticipated. In yun. ving a roco with an opponent who is very livoly on bis stuwps, it is hard work 1o pull s mau round who won't use his own lage. Of course, the priucipal reason why Mr, Tpex was defoated is Hecauss tho Chicago 4%mes wanted to Lave him elooted. 1leis afflicted in the same manner as Ar. Keny, Judge Tuze is au excellout geutluman, but no amount of pervonal excellonco can savo a wwsn who is laboring under the calamity of Laviog the Chicago Z'imes for au orgau. Anothor reason for Judgo Tazs's defcat is the fact that only s vary snsll part of bl was runping. We do not kuow that he wanted ty bo elected. It uot, he is probably gratificd at the ulection of Mr. Barsrn, and consolvs himself with the reflection that he will not hove to bo burdened with ths capes of Btate.

In spite of the Dewocratic Irick to Lelp tho ringuters to tho bandling of threcqjuarters of & million more ot the people’s woney, there iy good reason to be. livvo that the bond proposition has been de- feated, It iv 1,000 votes bebind, with twen- ty-two preocincls yot to hear frum, and it iv 3casonably certain that this majority will not bu overcome. With the clection of four new LRepublican wembery, oll of them houest wen, and the ro-clection of Cowmissiouer Avacs, who bas invariably voted sgainst the ringaters, unougl can bo saved out of the ap- propriatious for gencral county expeuses to go on with the Court-lHowse viork. For the dafeet 02 the Lol propostion the Do which has survivod all attempts to weaken ¢ |.4re too muny important isvus et stake. especinlly cominitted by the Constitution to tho discretion of Congrems, In 1870 the party of paper money and of inflalion had been defeated and overwhelmed by tho popular verdict. 'Tho intense oppo- sition of the Enatern States and of the moneyed institntions to resist tho rostoration of the silver dollar coinaga alarmoed mnlti- tudes of people inall parts of tha country. It was accepted, and all the factaand eironm- stances nstified the assnmption that the pur- pose of domonetizing silver and of the oppo- sition to ita rostoration was to create an un- usnal demand for gold by making it compar- ativély seorcer and dearer, and thus forcs such a dapreciation of all forms of proporty ns to amount to o confiscation of tho property of all doblora of tho ereditor class. Aetingun. dor thatslarm, they appenled to the Presidont, but he sided with the ecreditora in dony. Ing to the people the legal privilego which had baen thelrs since the founda. tion of the Governmaent, to pay their debts in gold or silver, at their option. It is truo the Bilvor Lill waas passed, but the momery of the sharp trick which had made that bill neces- sary, and the bitterncsa with which the trick had been maintained, did not pass away, It left an intense antagonism between the debtor and the oreditor class, nud it wns out of that antagonism that the fiat-money party grow, and for a time threateued the sunihilation of public and private credit. The frionds and defendors of tho silver dol- lar wore friends of hard money, were in favor of & return to constitutional moncy, and wore in favor of paying every dollar of the national debt in tho money which on ita face that debt called for,—the gold or silver coin of the United States. The contract was to pay in dollars, ench dollar to contain acortainlegally-establishied weight of silvor or n cortaln other legaliy-sstablished weight in gold. Bocause they wero in favorof maintaining this plighted faith, thoy opposed all propositions to change, to enlargs, or re- duce the weight of silver in thoe silver dollar, which silver dollar had been tha unit of valuue,—tho moasure of the dollar since its original coinago by tho 8panish 250 yenrs ago. They insistedupon having that dollar,— the ancient aud never shortened yard-stick,— maintained and proserved, and its liboral coinsge, beoause, with gilver & legnl- tonder « aud freely colned, & rosump- tion of spocio paymonts in January, 1879, was possiblo; sud because if ths Goveru- mont of the United Statos was to enter into compotition with the world for possession of a sufllcioncy of tho confessedly-inadequate stock of gold, the attompt at resumption would be 8 faflure,—invalving the nation in o humiliating, dleastrons, and rminous bank- ruptcy. Mad tho romonotization of silver beon defented, the ropeal of the Resumption act would have beon the declared policy of all partics in the land having a ghost of a show to elect 8 member of Congross, a Btato Logislaturo, snd a Scnator. It iv bocauso the people folt safe that, so long ns thoy ‘wera securo in tho siivor dollar, and of the legal right to pay thelr debts in gold or silver at thoir option, they have ap- plauded and approved the policy of resump- tion in January noxt, The Presidont hardly necds to be re- minded that tho Amorican dollar haa never baeon coined with any refarence to ite valuein gold. Tho dollar which existed long beforo the Union consisted of 371} grains of pure silver, That ia the dollar, no matter how much gold or how much wheat it will pur. chasa at ono time or pnother. ‘That is the dollar which is to bo maintained now, ag it was when for forty. yenrs or more it could purchaso a gold dollar, aud have something over. The proposition to oularge gnd re- duce tho silyer dollar from day to day, to maet the rize and fall of the London markot, is so inconsiatent with fustice and rewion that it ean bo regarded in no other light than a8 an indirect or disguised scheme to again demonotizs tho silver dollar. If thero is to be n chapgo in the weight of olther gold or silver coin, lot the chauya be made in the weight of the gold doliar, That has bosn changed more than onco sinco we begun gold cofmage. If we are tohave a dollar changoable in its weight every timo thore Is n chiango in the market, lot it bo tho gold dollar ; but lot the time-honored silver dollar—tho 871} grains of pure silver—re- maln the standard of American money, the unit of money values, the original dollar or destroy it.
