Gold and silver had been driven | irom circulation and greenbacks were the agents | in the hands of the people with which to dis- charge thetr obligations and pay their taxes. | Until the country was able to discharge its obligi tions in hard money it would be wrong to deprive the people of tne only medium of exchange they possessed, there was not gold and silver | enough in the pockets of the whole | convention to pay one men’s taxes. | Why should they be callea repudiationists, because they believed In the greenback circulation to carry on the business of the country? There was not enough difference of opinion on that sub- | ject to alienate personal or political friends; | | is Was @ difference of opinion — merely. | The United States had not two-thirds the amount of currency in proportion ww. its wealth and magnitude of any other civilized country. He was not an inflationist, but he was for the people and believed they shouid de- termine how much money was Y on the business of the countr, strjking down monopoly in money. He would not Se hy there not ney enough al the country—that was for the’ busine tbe couutry to determine. He quoted from the President to show that the country had not money enough. He saw industries par- alyzed all over the land, and proprietors of manu- factortes said the reason was that there was not sufficient money. That was evidence enough for him that there was not money enough in the country. He fully indorsed the resolution adopted in Philadelphia in 1872. . It meant, when the governmeht had the power and ity to resume it should resume, but not till eh. It meant that and nothing more. The country could not immediately return to specie Payments without a financial crash. When the government resumed every national bank woula have to resume. He was not opposed to specie paymen' but he differed with some men who wanted to jump from the top of the | house to the cellar, while he wanted to go down by the ladder. He was in favor of the debtor class, and-farmers who had mortgages on their farms for which they got greenbacks should not be compelled to pay the mortgages in gold. He did not want the gold bullionists of New York to own Illinois, thelr farms and nomes and sho} When | the country sold more than it bought it was not in debt to foreign countries, and the balance of trade was not against tt, but in its favor.

A RAILROAD DISASTER. Sad Accident to an Ex- ecursion Train. A CULVERT BREAKS THROUGH. Four Persons Killed and a Num- ber Severely Maimed. Witmineron, N. C., June 17, 1874, A terrible casualty happened on the Carotina Cen- tral Railroad yesterday, about 125 miles above this city. The road has lately been completed through of Wilmington, and the merchants of this city were desirous of establishing business communication with the people of the interior. The Carolina Central Ratlroaa Company warmly seconded them in this desire, and an excusion was, therefore, an- nounced for yesterday, the fare being fixed at a merely nominal price. The consequence was that many persons took advantage of the opportanity, and something like 800 people, among whom were many ladies | and children, embarked for this city. The excursion train left Polkton at seven o'clock | under the command of F. M, Wooten, an old and experienced conductor, with many pleasing an- ticipations of the welcome that awaited them here, where, in fact, every preparation had been made for their reception and entertcinment, About eight o'clock, as the. train was pass- ing @ point four miles east of Lilesville, and when all was life and gayety, and when none dreamed of disaster, there came a sudden and a terrible shock, and soon the entire train lay @ wreck on the road. A culvert had given way, and the engine, tender and {our cars Plunged after each other into the gap. The fireman, Mingo, and two brakemen, McLen- don and Arnold, were killed. John Galvin, engineer; Thomas Alderman, ex- press agent; A. Sinclair, mail agent, and Mr, George Huntley were dangerously wounded, Mr. Galvin has since died and Mr. Alderman is | Said to be beyond hope. The condition of others is very critical. Conductor Wooten is slighty hurt, but his in- Juries are not considered dangerous. Messrs, James Caudle, J. M. Evans, Samuel Burns, John Threadgill and John birmingbam, of Anson county, and others, received patntul but | not dangerous wounds. As soon as the fact of the accident became known relief was hurried to the spot from all quarters, Drs. Jackson, Covington, Stancil and Battle were soon there, doing all in their power to | relieve the wounded. The scene was horrifying. | The sufferings of Messrs. Galvin, Alderman, Sin- clair and Huntley were simply dreadfal. 8. L. Tremont, Engineer and Superintendent of the road, has gone up to the scene with other physicians and nurses from this city, and it is necdless to say that all that is possible will be done to relieve the sufferers. In @ note from him to tne Daily Journal, published in an extra this after- noon, he says that the cange of the accident resulted from heavy rains on the night provions, which caused the washing out of a culvert built in 1860, over which rested a frm old bank, The track on all that part of the roadis in most excellent | order. At this writing (midnight) there is no further news from the scene of the disaster. AMUSEMENTS. + Booth’s Theatre. “Saul,” Alfieri’s biblical tragedy, was produced last night at this house for the first time ino America. Owing, no doubt, to the lateness of the Season and the state of the weather, its production might have been looked ior. In part, perbaps, the indifference shown by the public ts due to a want of acquaintance with the works of the great Italian dramatist, who is less known among us than he ought to be. “Saul” is not, | however, a very favorable specimen of his style. It has all the fauits of mere declamatory plays, and | only for the really wonderful acting powers of Sig- | nor Salvini the play would be unbearably duil. But the genius of the chief actor so lights up the part of Saul, endowing it with an intensity and passionate fierceness, as to compel attention | and interest irom the most indifferent. The dream scene in the last act was espe- cially powerful, and the Vivid picture of a disordered mina which the actor drew made one regret that he has not as yet added the role of King Lear to his repertoire. ‘The play is brought to an end by Saul falling on his sword; but this culmimation is not led up to as well as it might be, and consequently there remains a feeling of incompleteness when the curtain comes down. Signor Salvini’s benefit will take place on Friday night, on which occasion he will appear in his great impersonation of Samson. The public will thus have an excellent opportunity of marking their appreciation of the great artist's worth. Terrace Garden Theatre. Mr. Neuendorff is fast making Terrace Garden Theatre an east side resort for the summer for the Germans. Last night there was a programme of unusual excellence, consisting of a very funny com- edy by Mr. Kneisel, called “The Beloved Uncle,” in which the excellent company of the Germania Theatre took part, and a concert in the Garden, { where the overture to ‘Maritana,’’ one o1 Wal- lace’s happiest thoughts; the “O Matilde,” trom Rosaini’s ‘William Tell’? and a reminiscence of | Bach formed the principal attractions. The next | performance at tl Garden takes piace on Friday evening. Musical and Dramatic Notes. The last matin¢ée of “Fate” will be given at Wal- lack’s on Saturday. Dan Bryant takes his annual benefit on this night week, at Booth’s Theatre, by the courtesy of | Messrs. Jarrett & Palmer. Sameon will be presented at Booth’s Theatre on Friday night, on the occasion of Signor Salvini’s | benefit, Thisis one of the great tragedian’s best parts, and we doubt not New York will show prac- | tical appreciation of Signor Salvini by making his Professor Herrmann Is giving soirées maguques | and showed the President a trick worth two of in- flation. lt isrumored that Grant will put Herr- | mann into the Treasury Department, where he will immediately resume specie payment.
