GEN, GARYIELD AND THE PAVING CON- TRACTS. ‘The Domocratic effort to tarnish Gen, Gar field's record during his public caroor of twonty years has beew made almost ridicu- lous by the poverty of {ts results. His tra- ducers have about abandoneil the prepos- terous thoory that aman lke Garfield would snoriiice hls falr name and future prospects for $829 of Onkes Anes’ Credit-Mobiller, money. In regard to tho sulary-grab, tho records show that Gurfleld persistently op- posed fn. commnittes tho “rider” providing for back pay; that he only signod the report, after It had been adopted in splte of tls op- position, in ordar that he inight, as Chatr- man of tho Appropriations Committes, gain control of the genoral bil on the floor of Congress; that he Imnadiately covered his own extra pay Into tha ‘Trengury, and nover kept a dollar of it; nud, tinatiy, that he was the most active mombor of the Houso. in securing tho repeal of the bill increasing tho pay of Congressmen to $7,500 per year. Illa alleged connection with Washington paving contracts iy the only other error charged upon him during his entire official service. Gen. Garfield's relation to the De Colyer & McClelland paving contrnet was ontirely straightforward and blameless, The Wash- ington Board of Public Works had previous- ly agreed upon laying upon a certain amount of concrete y certain amountof Belgian and acertain amount of wooden-block pavement. ‘Thero was a rivalry between the owners of the numorous patents on the block pavement nsto the procurement of that part of the work, Mr. Parsons, an attorney of Cleveland, then Marshal of the United States Court at Washington, hnd beon retained to represent the claims of the Do Golyer contract. In the closing days of tho Congressiunal session, Parsons called upon Garfield, sald that he wascoinpelied to goto Cleveland on important Private business, and asked Gariield, usa lawyer, to examine Into the patents and paves monty, and prepare the argument which ho (Parsons) had undortakon to make in behalf of the Ds Golyer wouden-block pavement. Parsous offered to give Garfield half his ex- pevted fee. Garflold’s reply was that hoe could not do the work until Congress ad- Journed, as ho was too busy, but that he Would undertake it after ndjourmnont, It wasn plain, business proposition In thn line of Gartleld’s legal work outside of Congress, and one that he had a porfeet right to accept, as every Jawyer knows. Gartield did on hoiad agreed. Te made a: careful examination of the different block Pavements and patents, prepared a written brlef, ond sulinitted an oral argument sn | favor of tho Do Golyor process to the Wash- ington Board. ‘There waa no concealment thout the nutter. Ho did somo careful and able legal work, and was paid for it one-half the fos which Varsons afterwards recelyoil, Gen.. Garfleld was supporting a fanily in Washington upon the meagre salary of 1 member of Congress, and . was probably very glad of tho opportunity for carning some money honestly during his yaca- tlon. His sorviee did not Involve any lobbylng or effort for fixing the prico; he had nothing to do with arranging the terms of the contract; he prepared an argument in favor of a certain kind, of patent pavement, and probably sot forth tho validity of the patent In the best manner, Ilo did not even innko the acquaintance of De Golyer and Me- Clelland, and only saw Chittenden, who roprpsented thelr interests, whon It became neecssary to inform himself as to the merits of the pavement whieh he was to presont, When the Washington expendituras wero Investiguted In Congress Jn 1874, and Gen, Garfield heard his name had been mentioned In the evidence, he appeared before the Com- tnitteo and walked the privilege of belng heard In cnse any statement wero made reflecting upon him. Hoe was Informed that the Com- inttco had found nothing Improper Inu the services he had rendered, ond Mr. J. Mi. Wilson, of Indiana, Chairman of tho IJn- vestigating Comunittee, wrote a letter to the sume effect after the investization had beon concluded, ‘This is what Mr, Wilson said: Consensvintsy Toit, Aug. ly 1t.—The Ton.

Aside from tho choice of o Presidont, tho controf of the next House of Represonta- tlves fa involved in tho oleatlon of next fall. Both Wourca ara now Demoeratta, It will not bo posstbte to chunge the polltteat com- ploxion of the Suunte during the next two or perhaps four years, and it will bo bad cnongh for tho Republican President to be embry Tssed by one opposition branch in Congress. The Matsa of Representattves may bo seoured by the Republicans, and tt will bo secured with propor effurt, Asa mutter of fuct, {t fssearcely second {n Importance to tho election of s Republienn President, 13 tho nullificatfon tenitenctes of the present Domoerntic Congress have demonstrated. ‘Tho Demeorats control tho prosont Mouse by only nbout a dozen refinblo majority, and tho way Is clear to the Republicans to clect a good many nore than that tinumber of Con- Bressmen ia addition to thelr prosent repre: sentation, which, will be retained intact. Ono Congressman fas already been gained in Oregon. ‘The propertion of represonta- tlon In New York, Pennsylvania, and Tillnols will probably remain protty nearly tho same. In this State It is possible that the Repub- Means may loxo the Fifteenth District, now represented by Forsythe, who was lected ns a “National” candidate by tho ald of Re- publiean votes, but they will certainly gain the Thirteenth (Bloomington) District, now reprosentedl by Stevenson, sv thore will be no change {1 proportions, In Ohfo there will probably be a guin of at least Kix Republican Congressinen. ‘The Republican Legisinture of that State fins restored the old apportion- “mont Which oxisted before the Democrats gerrymandered the State in 1877-78 At the Inst olection under the old apportionmont, that of 1876, the Republicans had twelve Con- Bressinen out of twenty, and lost the First, Second, aud Fourth Districts, which they now hold, and which they can undoubtedly sarry noxt fall, Ohfo may thus have fifteen Republican Congressmen instead of the nino who were elected fn 1873 under tho unfair districting that was made by the Demoernta, ‘This gain will be practlenlly asyured If the State goes 15,000, which Is pretty well guar- anteed by Gartivd’s candidature, The Indinna Democrats have drawn the Ines a little too finely in gerryinandaring the districts of that Stato for thelr benefit, and it Js not unlikely that the Republicans will gain. two members from that State In any caso, and porheps more If Indiana shall go Repth Nean. ‘here will also be a’ gain of two in Towa in districts curried in 1878 by the Green- back candidates. In Mlssourl, tf tho Repub- Ucans pull togethor, they have good pros- pects of carrying one, and perhaps two, mem- bers in St Louls, and two or threo of the country distrieta—viz.: tho Fifth, the Sov- enth, and tho ‘Tenth. They earried three districts in that Stats four years ago, and al- most won two more, ‘The Republicans of Minnesota lost ono district two years ago, which they can recover this fallif they try; and the Republicnns of Oregon have just re- covered thelr lost district. Proper efforts will securo six to ten districts in the South. Altogether thore fs a fair prospect that tho “Republicans will gain & seore of Congress- men next fall at least,:and thus snatch tho power for mischivf froin the Democratic invfority which has shown itself at once In- competent aut viciously disposed, —— THE IRISH FAMINE AGAIN, ‘ The recent messnge of ‘tho Lord Mnyor of Dublin, addressed by cailo to “tho Mayor of every town in the United'States and Canada,” appealing for more funds for tho relief of dlstrose in Ireland, is well characterized by Mr. dames Redpath as. hnpudent. It be- tokens a determination tipon the part of tho wealthy Irlsh, a9 well as of the English land- holders and Governmeijt, that the poorer classes shail iyo off of Ameriean charity, while thoy take tho products of the tenantry inthe form of ronts.

Nothing trom tho Govern- ment, nothing from tho gentry, nothing from the Iandfords, nothing from Parllsinent, nothing from this professional boggar, the Lord Mayor ot Dublin,, nothing from tho ‘wealth of Lrolund for the rellef of Ireland? ~ Now look at tho otpor slds of the pleturot ‘There is nota family in Lrotand occupying tho position of tenants, and having clilidren fn this country, who have not veon partinily supported by them, and ‘this represents only namall part of tha relict that has been sent to those unfortunate people, America has notonty kept them from starving by send- ing monvy and food, bit has been paying part of their rents, and she hus been dolng ft 60 Jong and so liberally that the Iqndlords anid gentry have come to believe that sho wilt respond without any question every time she fs called upon, In the present famine sho has already done her duty, Re yond the casa, Suppoao thore was a fanitne among our own farming population, and our wealthy classes and Government’ refused to do anything for thelr. rellef, and kept pory sfstontly calling upon tha English people to contribute thelr money aud food, how long {f thoy had alrendy sent millions of tnonoy for tho same purpaka?

After the gouds wero ordered the “bottom fell out” of tho home market, leaving tho importers, espe- elally of ronand steel and other hardware, to suifer-tho consequences, This explains why so many of tho Inrge fron and steel im- porters lave recently falled. Nevertheless, so gteat hing been this tmportation and the consequent demand for forelyn exchange that there is n.rumored approhonston that gold will have to bo exported to mect these purelinses, Itfs not, however, likely that such will be tho cuse, and fortwo reasons: (1) ‘That the valugof our exports during the same year reached $795,000,000, a guin of $81,000,000 over the provious your, still leaving a * bal- ance” over imports in our favor of $179,000,- 000; and (3). thnt the importations havo al- ready reached theirmaximum. ‘Tho boom” {nprices under which these goods were or- dered from abréad exploded here nearly ninety days ago, sinco which tlie bué few additional orders have been forwarded, Tho present largo receipts have beon under older contracts. The causa of the sudden and largo Inerenso inthe yalue of tmports during the lastsix months having cunsed, the excessive: {mportations will nat- urully censo nlao. In the meantime our ox- ports show no falling off. By-the end of tho fiscal year, Juno 30, 1680, the volume and value of imports will in all probability have diminfshed to what thoy wore a year ago. in tho ineantime the goldite enemies of ailyer colnage are usiug the threatened de- mand for gold for exportation to ronew thelr ery for an exclusive gold currency.” Thoy inalst that overy dollar of silver coined and putinto the Treasury fs purchased with a corresponding sum of gold, and therefore that much gold is wasted and lost to the country. Tho Sccrotury of tho Treasury iu tho month of May purchased tun millions of dollars’ worth of bonds at o high promlum, paylng therefor in gold. At tho samo time ho had sixty millions of silver dollars in the Treasury, but refused to exerelso the option of paying ail or part of the bonds in silver, os ho might have done, Tho uso of gold to purchnso silver !s no more & waste of tho gold than Is the uso of gold to in silver at the option of the Government. On tho Istof June the balance of culu In tho Treasury was: Gold, $120,099,100;. silvor, $65,157,931; or a total of $185,850,517, Tho gold balance hins been much Jargor than it Is now, und why fs it that this is not counted as locked up,—withdrawn trom public use ng much as the gold, when by law and contract every expenditure of tha Government is og equally payable in silvor ag it is in gold? ‘There is not w payment that is mado from day to day by the Government which may not be paid tn silver ag well oa in gold, and yet, though the Scerctary obstinately refuges to mako use of the sllyer, and koops It hoard- ed, the gold fuction aro still dissatisfied. ‘Yho fovt ja, the accumulation of silyor dol- Inte in the ‘frousury fg the most certain guar- anty againsta run ow the Treasury, or & panic, or a suspension of specie-paynients, Whon that silver shall have resehed, by slow and regular accumulation, to twice or three {mea the prosent ammount, thon such a thing us a panic or disaster involving 3 suspension of specic-paymunts will bo in Impossibility, Tho objection that sliver docs not circulate is no objection to its abundant colnage, No gold dollars have been coined for twenty yours, because thors fs no demand for thom, Alded with the silver in clroulation, thesmail gtcenbacks perform the seryico of exchango in stnall transactions. In England nearly $10,000,000 of sliver is In netive aud general use, becuuse there are no small notes, and the rufo has tho sume effect in France, whore thera Is 850,000,000 of sllvor In use or held in rederve for emergenotes. For tho presont thls country Is gotting along all right, ‘Chore is no searolty of gold, no scarcity of. silver, ‘ho sexrelty of paper. Any person can exercise his chalice and uso elthor form of monoy that best suits his con+ venlenco or his interest, It costs just as much to gotten colned silver dollara es It docs to geba guld engzle; aud the gold eaglo Will buy no more of any commodity nor pay any moro dobt than tho ten silver ploces, When tho New York Tribune, therefore, urges that the silyor bo sold off as bulllon in exchange for gold, wo have a clear oxplana- tion of tho’objection to’ silver, and that ia that It stands In the way of an exclusive legal currency of gold. Such @ currenoy docs not exist In any commercial country of any magnitude in the world at this time. Where ever allyer is discarded as a Iegal-tender, the wold defictoncy is supplied by tho issue of ‘legul-tonder paper. Pie ‘The policy of selling off the legal-tendor silver coin In exchange for gold proved to be ‘a most costly and foollsh one In Germany, ‘Where it had to be abandoned, and where there is now twice as much legal-tender all- ver In circulation as there iy In the United Btates, . f ‘In the meantime the goldite faction may yest assured that they will not ave the de ° pay bonds which, on their face, are payablo- monetization of allyer nor the suspension of ita coinage ko long na tho Govorniment Is dl- tectly involved Ih the malntenance of spoale-paymionts by the redemption of Is notes In coin. ‘Tho recent increnso of m- porls and tho prospective demand for gold for oxport 1s but temporary; but, aven if protracted, tho remody {# not to artost thy ooinnge of allver.
