In tho summer of 1874 Congress passed a DIN which has passed into history as the “Tutlation bill” because President Grant, tn vetolng It, declared that heconstrued It us Ine touded to Inflate the currency, In Decem- ber, 1874, the Presklent curnestly advisod legislation looking to a resuniption of spevie- payments, and the Republicans of the Senate held a caucus nt which a bill was prepared, and which tha caucus ordered shotld be passed ag a party imensure, and without anendment, “'The Republicans, refusing any amendment, put the bi through both Hongses, aud it becaine a Jaw In January, 1973. It Axed dan, 1, 1870, as the date for the redemption of the United States legal-tender notes in cain, ‘Nhe act as passed left a long margin of thne tu which to prepare for the law taking etfect. In fact, the lnw at that tne was regardud us somewhat sentimental, and that It was only designed to direct the public mind tu the Important subject of ulthuate specle- payments,—to famillarizo the public with the subject, und cultivate a hualthy sentiment tn favor of the essential requisit for w return to business prosperity, While the bill was pending In the Senate, Mr, Suhr and others called upon Sonntor John Sherman, who represented the Repub- Hean caucus, to explain whether the DIN fn tended that the greenbacks, when redeemed {n coln, were to be withdrawn from. clrewlus Hon and burnud, or to bo reissued; but Mr, Sherman rofusod to answer the question, and It was not answered by any other Senator, ‘Tho objection to answering thut most fn- portant question was, that on that subject there was a widy diiferance of opinion among the friends of tha bill, and the date fixed for resumption was then afar off, ‘To have declared that tho greenbacks were to bo rotired as fast as redeemed would have enlisted the opposl- tlon of the whole West to the threatened con- traction of the currency, ‘To have declared thut the greenbacks wero nut to be retired, but refesued, would have pravokud the hos- tility of the grout ilnancial centres which desired then as now to gotrid of logal-tendor paper, So, agreulng that further legislation would ba needed ata latur date to put the law Into operation, It passed in a purposely vague shape. ‘Two years elapsed without any general dlscusston of the subject of resumption, ex- cept, perhaps, soine abortive attempts to re- peal the luw, ‘The press talked off and’on about the blindness of the bill Jn regard to procuring coin for redemption of green: backs, and whether they wero to be retired when paid, or relssued, but nothing on those polnts was settled, Inthe meuutime the discovery was m by tho public that silver had been demon- etlzed, and the Presidential election of 1870, with its prolonged settlement, had taken pluce. Mr. Sherman, the reputed author of THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1880—TWE LVE PAGS, the Restmption law, had become Secretary of the ‘Treasury, nud had developed Into a conspictoua and intempernts opponent of tho remonetization of silver, ‘Tho spring and summer of 1877—an extra session of Con- gress belng called to meet in October—fur- nished the oceasion for a discussion of tho practical means for executing the vagucly- worded Resumption actof 1875. The papera generally of the country entered into the dlacussion with anlmation, and the, Green- backers and Western Democrats very ear- nestly addressed themaclves to a demand for an unconditional repeal of the act. ‘Tho Now York and Enstern papers generally assumed that, asamatter of course, the greenbacks wore to be retired, and not to be fssued agaln ns soon as redeemed; and that, 03 allver had been demonetized, the legal cur- reney of the country would beafter January, 1979, exclusively gold.. ‘Ti Cittcage 'Trrn- usk& claimed that this view of the ly, if fol- lowed by the Government, would result in the contraction of tha currency, first by tho enforced withdrawal of the $300,000,000 of legal-tender greunbacks, and, second, by 0 material withdrawal of the note circulation ofthe National banks whon they would be confronted by the burden of redomption tn goldon domand of thetr clreulation. ‘This would also lead to a shortening up of dla. counts on the part of the banks and a gonoral eramp in business circles. z Tus Titnune protested agatust such o wholesate contraction of the currency and the adoption of an exclusive gold legal- tender. ‘Tn Trmune took the ground, also, that, if the greenbacks were to be retired, the Government might provide to some extent paper currency substitute by the ropent of various restrictions upon tho Issuy of Nationa!-bank notes. "These restrictions were those Iiniting the circulation to 90 per centon the amount of bonds deposited, the tnx on clreulation, and the tax on deposits. ‘Tho repeal of these oxactions, Tat Thinuxe argued, would encourage private eaplial to go into tho banking business, and enlarge the bank-note currency to {Hl the vacuum eatised by the retirement of the greenbacks, and thus prevent a destructive contraction of the money medium, ‘Phe ‘Treasury at that time lind no gold, and the amotnt in the country was n Iinited one, and to retire tho greenbacks anc part of the bank-notes, and provide to substitute for either, Tre Trupune claimed would produces such a finanelal stringency and constriction that resumption would fai! and the effect on the country would be worse than if tt had never been attempted, in September (or August) of 1877 Mr. Sherman visited Mansileld, 0., to make q speech on resumption, Tie Trinune ap- pealed to him to tell the people of Ohio that resumption did not menn tho retirement of the preenbacks and tho consequent con;, traction of the currency. Mr. Shor- man owas deat to all appeals on that subject, refusing to answer -all questions on that. vitally Important point, His evaston of tha reissue question and his ferld hostility to remonetizing silver lost the State to the Republicans by furnishing tho Democrats with Irresistible campaign cries, it was the most dlsastrous defeat the Repub- ean party ever suffered in Ohio. ‘The Gov- ernor and State ticket were lost by 23,000 mna- jority; the Legislature went Democratic nearly two-thirds; a United States Senator was lost, and Pendleton was elected as Sher- man’s successor. ‘Cho Democrats redistricted tho State for Congressmen, whereby thoy now hold five seats to which they are not on- titled, Jolin Sherman, by his plg-headed stupidity or cowardice, or wrong-headed- ness—lnck of ability for leadership,—threw away the State, and it tople two years of leadership under wiser men to recover from that dlsrster. During all these discussions of tho Ie- sumption law Tue Tutnune: insisted upon the remonetization of silvor, clalining that without It resumption was not practicable, and would, if attempted, probably fall, ‘This point was never yielded. When the House passed tho bill in November, 1877, repealing thedate fixed for resumption, ‘Tue Trinuxn appealed to tho Senate to dofeat the House bill, because If silver was remonetized re- sumption would bo an easy matter oven be- fore the date fixed, We have already quoted from our tiles of November, 1877, editorials resisting repeal of the Resumption act for the reason stated,—that allyer would make resumption practicable. Matters stood thus when tho regular ses- ston of Congress met on Deo. 3, 1877, On that day Mr, John Shorman, Sueretary of the ‘Treasury, laid before Congress his annual report and recommendations, In discussing the subject of resumption he asked for nddl- tlonal legislation {n the following particulars: 1, ‘That authority be glven to gradually fund inte 4 per cent bonds all greenback notes in excess of $:300,000,000, 2 ‘That, as existing Inws do not clearly de- fine whether greenbucks, when redeemed after Jan, 1, 1879, may be relssued, and while the Secretary thought they might be reissued, this construction of the Inw was controverted, and It should be determined by law, and such a law he asked Congress to en- uch, 3, Spealsing ot systems of paper moncy and the repented instances of tho oxhaustion of the coin reserves, he asserted that “every such system must provide for w auspension of specte-payment”; therefore, he. assorted, “It ts far butter to fix the maximum of legul- fonder notes at $800,000,000, supported by a minimum reserve of $100,000,000 of coin, only to be used for the redemption of notes not to bo relssued until tha reserve fs restored, A demand for coin ta exhaust sneh a reserve may not occur, but, Uf events force tt, its ex- istence would be Known and could be de- elared, and would Justify a temporary sus- penaston of apeelepuyments, Some such ex- pedtont, could, no doubt, be provided by Congress for an exceptional emergency.” It had been alrendy declared that the Scero- tary might sell any of the authorized bonds to procure coin for resumption. ‘his precious scheme of the Secretary to provide for sus- pension of specie-payments 1s not extolled by hig Presitential supporters nor elaborated and oulogized by his Literary Bureau In Washington iu the cireulars which they are sending out to the country, Nor have they quoted from any newspaper an indorsement of the repudiating bankrupt project of the Secretary, In response to the request for power to re- issue 800 millions of the greenbacks and re- deem and burn 50 milllons, Congress prompt ly enacted wmondments to the Reswumption act forbldding the further contraction of Breenbacks, und ordering tholr relssue as fast as redeomed so as to prevent contraction and do away with all apprehension of It. Congress refused to authorize the re duction of the groonbacks, It refused to authorize Secretary Sherman to suspend specle-payments at his discretion, but, on the contrary, to prevent the necessity of any such suspenalon, Jt directed the volnage of legal-tender silver dollars not in excess of $48,000,000 ngr Jess than $24,000,000 a year, This legislation, though opposed by the Secretary, had tho effect of removing all doubt as to the practicability of resumption at the date named; it made the contraction of the greenbacky‘and thotr withdrawal im: possible; it settled tho fuancial question permanently. ‘This legislation expressly ree moved all the difticulties to resumption whio'1 ‘Yuus ‘Tuipune had suggested. It applied the remedies which Tne Triene had pro- posed, and at ones gave stability to tho eredit of the country. ‘To-day the 4 per cent bonds, interest and princtpal payable at the option of the Government In silver, are selling at 106, showing the fallacy of all the objections made to tho rumonetizatton of the old con- stitutional legaf-tender voln, GEN, GRANT. AND THE STALWARTS. ‘There tan curlous disugreement between Gen. Grant and the gentlemen who are most consplettons in uralug hla nomination. When Messrs. Boutwell, Conkling, Logan, Cam- cron, Banks, Storrs and others known as “Stalwarte” have been confronted with the arguments aaninstathird term thet) reply has been that the demand for a “strong man” at tha head of the Governinent out- welghs any “sonttmental” objection that rests upon precedent, Natlonal habit, or the unwritten constitution of the country. This demand is based upon the alleged turbulent condition nnd threatening attltude of the South. Mr. Boutwell says there are “four millions of binek fellow-cltlzens at the South who are ulterly deprived of their political and civil rights,” and contends that, ‘left by us” (which is Intended nga fling at Presl- dont ayes’ Administration), “they have no hove but political degradation aud the con- tlhned triumph of the old sluveholding aristocracy over their destinies and for- tunes.* The snme gentleman says in his speech that the Democratic majority in Con- gress tins “been secured by tho grossest usurpations, made possible only by the per- petratton of the bluodiest of crimes,” and contends that the Issue of the Presidential election must be: “Shall this Government be destroyed or subverted permanently by the usurpations of the minority?” Senator Conkling {na stmilar spirit has described tho condition of the South as one of “industrial, politieal, and general dis- turbance and madness,” and has charged that "in sevoral States thore shall be no free election or count.” Mr. Storrs, In. the Chi- cago third-tarm imecting, nate a vigorous protest “against any further conciliation of the old enemlos of the Government.” Gon, Logan, in the same meeting, maintained that “Solid South is a menace to this country, and should be and will be so recog- nized,” and he promised that Gen. Grant, us President, would restore to all citizens the constitutional ‘rights of which the Repub- Hicans hivthe South havebeen deprived, Gen. Banks, at the Massachusetts Convention, pro- clalmed that “the North had been betrayed into the conciliation pellcy by the spectous promises of the Southerners whieh thoy have since broken,” and added: “Wo can- not expect that fealty to our institutions which they had promised.” ‘These brief extracts are auflicient to reveal the principal reason why the “ Stalwaris” urge Gen.[Grant’s nomination, They contend that a pollvy of forces must be adopted toward the South, aud that Gen. Grant is the only man who can ba trusted: to inaugurate and carry out that polley, Gen. Grant himself takes a wholly differ- ent view of the ease, judging from the speeches which he has delivered {n the South and since he has returned from that section, Ilo passed through one portion of the South on his way to Mexico Iast fall, and through another portion this spring on his return home, Ifo has traveled thousands of miles in the South, vistted nearly all Its con- siderable cities andjtowns, and has conversed with multitudes of Southorn people of all classes, Ho says hfinself that he has visited “a [tlle bit of every ona of the Southern States Intely In rebelifon:” Ilo has conse- quently had a bettet opportunity for judging of the condition and tempor of the South than any of the gelttemen who liave out- lined his policy for hin, In his speech at Little Rock, Ark. he said he had notleed that /‘sectionalism ‘is passing away,” and that ‘tho feelings of the past are gone? Ie made similar statements in other Southern, cities where he was given public receptions, In his Catro speceh he roported, as a result of his observation during his extensive tour in the South, that “the Stars and Stripes wero flonting every- where,” thot “a great portton of the sneukers -In every Instance were men who in the con- filet wore the gray,” and that “the specchies whish they made show their present deyo- tlon,to the ‘lag for which we fought.” He added significantly: “ This §s all we asked of them.” In hls Bloomington speech ne said: “We have no reason to doubt that those who wore tho gray will fulfill all they have prom- {sud In loyalty to tho flug nnd the Nutton.” Ho also expressed St as his conviction that the Union flag is regarded by the Southern people as “guarantecing to them all the rights and privileges of » free people, with- out regard to race, color, or previous condl- tlon of servitude.’ It will scarcely be de- nied that thesa expressions ure in open and direct conilict with tha statements which the professional “ Stalwarts’” were making in the North about the samo time fn ordor to impress upon the people the emergency which domunds the election of Gon, Grant fora third term in deflance of the Nationul prece- dent. ills not necessary to the present purpose totake sides between Gen. Grant and the “bloody-shirt” advocates In the North who are managing his Presidential candiduey, If he fs right in hla moderate and hopeful view of Southern loyalty: and good faith, after a tong personal tour of observation, then thoy aro certainly wrong in conjuring up a dane gorous cnergency froma fictitious state of anarchy, otttrage, oppression, and Intent treason. If thorebe no such emergency as they have pictured, then there Is not the urgent demand for “a stroug man” to pub down the anarchy. which they have de soribed, and thelr ohlef argument in favor of Gen, Grant's nomtnation is deprived of its force, If, on the other hand, Messrs, Bout- well, Logan, Conkling, Cameron, Howe, Storra, and kindred “Stalwarts” be right, and Gen, Grant wrong, nbout the political and general condition of the South, then the most active partisuns of the ex-President are mistaken in their, man, He ts not * the strong man’ in the sonse they mean, aud has no intention of enforolng the *bloody-shirt” polley which they are outlining for him. Asnmutter of fict, Gen. Grant's recont mature and dellberate utterances’ constitute a frank Indersement af President Hayes’ volley of covelliation, ‘This is not so strange ax the professional Stalwarty who support the third-term movement would bo Inclined. to think,. ‘The polley of “Home Rule” for the South orlgiugted with Gen, Grant, so furas Republican authority consented to it, Ile tried varlous experiments in the way of reconolllation, but aeemed to have settled down at the last to the advisability of non- interference, A full year before the expira- tlon of his second term he had permitted the State of Mississippi tofpass into the liands of the Democrats, though the actual Republic an majority in that State was probably lurgor than that of any other Southern State. ‘Tho Democratic poticy tn Misalsstppi was especial. Jy aggressive and offensive, since the then Republican Governor was not even perniit- ted to serve out his term, but Gen Grant did not employ the power of the National Goy- ernment to prevant the local revolution. Whon the election had been held tn 1876 there remained only three Southern States In which the Rupublicans could assert the shadow of aclalin ta palitical control, aud in those States they had not suflicient back- dog from tha local povulation to maintaln thelr alain. When Gene Grant was ap vealed to as President he ordered the United States offfelals and troops to hold aloof and keep thetr hands off, vxeept in caso of actual breach of tho peace, with tho purpose of enabling the stronger of the contending partles to assert Hs supremacy and gain control of tha State Government, This was the status in Loulsiana and South Carollnn whon President Hayes was inaugu- rated, and le aceepted nud ablded by Ith it fg © warrantable Inference that, had Gen, Grant at that time continued to hold the oftive of President, he would havo taken the sime course that President Hnyes took, To hold the contrary would bo to aseribe to Gen, Grant the unworthy motive of embarrassiig lls successor by the partial Initiation of a polley whieh he himself did not approve. It Is not strange, therefore, that Gen. Grant should now evince considerable gratification at ‘having found in bls recent long Southorn tours that the polley of concillatton, to which he led the Repubtienn party by gradual stops, had produced good fruit, nnd that, in his own words, there is now “ no reason to doubt that those who wore ‘the gray will fulfill all they have promised in loyalty to the flag and the Nation.” It is not Gen, Grant's fault, but tho misfortune of sume of lila professtonnl “Stalwart” adherents, that the Intter have stultifled themselves and misrepresented him In bringing him forward as tho typleal “strongman” ato tine when tho “strong min” fs not needa THE NORTHERN PAOIFIO RAILWAY.

The road by the original charter should be completed by th ist of July next; but, as everybody knows, the financial crash of 1873, after the old Company had spent millions of dollars, put an effectual stop upon its furthor progress for four or five years. A new Company was finally organ- ized, and for tho last two or three years the rond has been pushod forward with great energy and success, By the act of 1864 it was. provided "that !f the sald Company make any breach of tho conditions hereof and allow the same to'continus for upwards of one year,” then the United States “may do any and all acts and things whieh winy be needful and necessary to tho speedy completion of the road.” 1t will thus ‘bo seen that the Company will have till the Ist of July, 1881, before any actual forfelture will be made, and it has been decided that tho land-grant will not Inpse even then, un- less Congress can be induced to ‘perpetrate 80 greatan act of Injustice and oppression, ‘The Company have given the best possible evidence that thoy are determined to build the rond as fast as men and money ean do it. Let us note what has been already done, and how much remains to be completed to open up a new rallway and steambont ling ueross the continent. The Company has now In operation over its own and leased Ilnes 720 miles, Of this, 156 Is on the Paelfic const, extending from the Columbta River toPuget’s Sound, and 448 miles from Lake Superior to Bismarck, on tho Missourl River. West of the Missourl, the road for something over 200 tiles, to the Yellowstone, fs, all under con- tract, and fifty mlles or morse are completed. In tho early summar of next year the cars will be running to the Yellowstone. All this within tha thine allowed by the charter. Onghe west silo of the mountains 2 sec- tlon dy $00 miles from the head of steamboat nayigation on the Columbin River to Lake Pond D'Orville is also under contract, and will be pushed forward as fast as possibie. ‘This will be completed In 1882, and by that time tha Yellowstone division of S10 miles —n section easily constructed In the valley of that river—will bo finighod, leaving only about 600 wiles of the Rocky MounMin sec- Uon to connect them, By tho close of the next senson a stage and express Ine, in con- nection with tho rallway and steamboat navi- gation, will be opened all the way from Lake Superlor and Chicago entirely across tho Continent. 2 THE WORST WEEK IN THE YEAR. 7 The annunl festival ts close at hand when, asin the children’s gamo, at a preconcerted signal the great majority of householders suddenly rise and change places, The cos- wmopolltan, radical, nervous charactor of Chi- cago 13 In no phase shown more clearly than inthe nomadic life of Sts people, thelr wild desire for chango, thelr determination not to stay In one place more than a year; and this tuo notwithstanding the change Involves every posstblo discomfort and yexation that ean happen ten person. ‘loons large clissof the community, Including painters, paper hangers, glaziers, plumbers, carp@cleanors and fnyors, and expressmen, it fs the applest day of all thoglad new year, and brings them a bonanza, but to master and mistress it!s 0 {ine of trint and tribulutlon. Asa rule, this domestle change of buse 1s one of the elvar- est Mlustratlons of the normal, dirtiness of tho raco and of tho indisputable fact that cloanljness Is purely con- Yentional, and that thera are times when, all porgonal responsibility being remoyed, the race returns as nearly us possible to its original condition of suvagery, Even the very vustom of moving appertains to that condl- tlon, although in the evolutions of clyiliza- tlon and progress it has assumed n mora complex and elegant shape than tho rude manner in which our ancestors changed Jo- eallty, Following out the line of our first Mustration, if thera Is anything a doparting housewife likes to do 1t is to leave the floors, Uttered up with svot, dirt, old newspapers, rags, und shoeg,. hydrants leaking, broken window-panes, n yard or so of plastering knocked off, n gate off its hinges, the wall- paper stripped here and there, the yard well Med with rusted stoveplpes, tin cans, and broken crockery, It{s not becanse those de- parting have any special spite aguinst those whoarecoming, becauseinall probability they know nothing about them; but I¢1s the only manner they have of entering n yreat moral protest aguinst the compulstyo. laws of soclety which muke them move, Moreover, it really is uot an act of malice, because they who cume In know well cnough that they who go out will en- counter the saine quantity and quality of dirt wherever thoy may go, Aw all do It, there Is no spectal reason for complaint ex- cept that as some people are naturally dirtler than others the others may gut more than thelr share, But even considering all other things equul, this is none the Jess a trint to the mistress of the house who has to romove {t befory she ean get such remnants of her furniture as the expressmen huvea spared intalt, She bus another very grievouy an- noyanee, _ Coming into a new nelyhborheod, she naturally wants to mako as good an dine pression as possible at first sight, ‘knowby that muny curlous eyes will scan the loads of furniture and comment upon Its gudlity, ‘The drivers, however, who haves no domestic or esthotle Interest In thelr loads, Iinvo not sought to make any‘ lnpression upon yuelghbors, bat hava piled up tho stuf regardless of consequences. So that the moat shabby, cheap, and -unpicturs esque objects, and some objects which should not bo sven at all: but belong to the domestle privacies, aro sure to avcupy places of prom- Inenco and distinction. Meanwhile the serv- ants arrive, and, having looked the house over, decide that it does not sulé thom, aud take leave, ‘Thon tho olfye-branches, not being under control, sally out for a day's sport, and usually roturn with disordered ralment and pummeled heads, the result of collistona'with new boys they meet, and with whom they have not had thne to establish offenaive and defensive treaties, or with In- Jured Hints and broken heads obtatned In senling fences and woodsheds with which thoy aro not yet fully nequainted, Add to this the probability that a worthless table has boen steadied by running one of Its legs through « costly niirror, that tho stove has been set upon the choles paint ing, that the decorated dinner-set, care- fully packed in a basket,’ has heen hung to the taitbuard and jolted about over the pavoments until thore are not halt a dozen whole pieces In the set, and ono may seo that the housewifo's lot ls not a happy one” on moving-day. And now comes the master of the house at night, worrted with his day's business at tho oMfce, and, after par- tuking of a cold meal that comes from no one knows where and {s prepared no one knows how, addresses Iinself to putting up 0 bed: stead only to find tho. slnts niissing, and to setting up a stove, the joints of which refuse to go together even when appented to with museular persuasion and drend£ul personal profanity, ‘Cho children are finally quieted down, the ttred, wornout, bedrnggted mia- tress and the perspiring, begrimed, and dia- aruntled master seek repose on the floor, and Might and sitenco settle down on the dis- trneted household. Such will be tho details of the domestic history of Chicago until next Saturday ntght. Torn-up houses, distracted households, streets filled with pltiuble-looking caravans, doniestle discomfort,—such ate some of the penaltivs of metropolitan existence. Mean- while the victims of all this misery, to which is now superndded tho inecrense of ‘rents, have the comfort of knowlng that they will not be disturbed again fora year. In com- parigon with such a condition of peripatetic wretcheilness, the lot of remote villagers in conservative statlonary localities, who never move from the houses they are born In until they are trken out to a house where the rent is freo and there are no modern improve- iments and they cannot move if they would, seoms a happy one. Senator JAcons, of New York, President of the late Tilden Democratic Convontion ut. Syracuse and delegate to Cincinnati, hos made natatoment from his place in the Binte Sonate that Js likely to receive the attuntion of tho whole country.
