This ought to serve as a gentle hint to all the Fourth of July orators who expect to eatertain the Grangers and other patriotic citizens of Nebraska. — BPAIN has suffered a very serious ‘disster, in the loss of General Con- «cha, and the repulse of the Republi- ean army under his command at Ratella. While this victory will ‘doubtiess encoarage Don Carlos and ‘his brigands in their incursions, the battle was by no means of sucha decisive nature as to imperil the ex- _sstence of the Spanish Republic. — OUR local Democratic contempor- "memmmthe refiection thst the negro race is dy- ing out at such 2 fearful rate in Amerioa that its total extinction is Mpflhfldb}un«b’l philosopher within the next 5,000 yoars.

And now let us examine the ques- tior: of demaud and supply which governs the price paid for the use of money, just as it governs all other commereial transactions. Amasa Walker, in_his work on political economy declares that the more money we have had in circu- Iation the higher has been the rate of interest. Professor Walker es- tablishes the fact by taking the amounts of currency afloat atdiffer- with the rates of interest at the same times, as stated iz the market reports. The reason why inflation necessarily advances the rates of interest are self-evident. In the first place inflation caus- es a general advance in prices, and this cncourages reckless speculation, and hence & brisk de- mand for money. For instance, in 1865 when the volume of the cur- reucy afloat was almest twice as large a8 it is to-day, the legal rate of interest in Nebraska was 15 per cent., and nobody grumbled about 1t, simply because everybody was en- gaged in speculative pursults which promised largereturns. Inflation nat- urally begets a spirit of extravagance end money gambling which s always accompanied by a brisk demand for morey. Money is cheap in Germany and France, while itis very high in Austria. The only reason for this is that Germany and France have a substantial currency with a specie basis, while Austria is submerged by irredeemable paper promises, The Chicago Times inan able review on cheap money refers to this fact as follows: “For more than a century and a half Austria has been cursed by a swindling paper money system. In- flation has followed inflation again and again, and the usual consequen- ces have always been realized: de- reciation, advancing_prices, specu- &lkm, fictitions wealth, panic, re- vulsion, repudiation. The element of uncertainty thus introduced into all time transacticas has worked fearful demoralization toroughout the empire, but most of all in Vien- na, The people of that city are reckless, prodigal, and dissipated. The city has become city of shams, And intelligent historians ccncur in the opinion that this is due to & variable standard of value more than to any other cause.” Does anybody doubt that like causes would not produce like effects in this country? The fact is cheap money can only be had by stability in our financial system, which ean only be brought about when a paper dollar will be exchangeable for a specie dollar. This condition can- notand need mot necesssarily be reached during the present year or the next year, but it should be steadily kept in view as the only safe and sure plan for securing cheap money to the people. — Practical Reformers. The State Temperance Conven- tion of women; which met in Ohio recently; passed a resolution in favor of reviving the law which provides for an inspector of the quatity of ligrors, and to punish their adulte- rution. At last the friends of tem- bave made a wise move, and one that will commend itself to the better portion of the community, which uses wines and beers, and to the German brewers themselves, who have been the most active ents of the temperance move- ments in Ohio. That State already has 8 law of this kind, passed twen- ty years ago, which has become a dead letter;and its revival and en- forcement would be productive of great good. It isa notorious fact that the poisonous adulterations of liquors are the sources of most of the evils attending the use of intoxica- ting drink, and are the direct means of maddening and crazing men. In countries where pure wines and beers are sold, drunkenness and its attendant crimes ard horrors are comparatively unknown. No ar- gument can be adduced which is valid against such a law. Suppose that grocers were sellin, flour, or sugar, or tes, so adulterat with' poisonous compounds that they endangered not only the health but the safety of the family and the community. How long would it be before inspectors would be int. ed and ibe polsonous stuff con- demned and destroyed, and the sel- ler of it punished? if the public can thus be msmhmd in what it eats, why should it not be protected in what it drinks? If liquor must be sold and men must drink—and both these facts are pretty con- clusive if the experience of cen- turies is of any account—then let it be imperative thatonly pure liquors by the whole pub- who would op- ent times, as shown by the bank re- | turns, and comparing theseamounts | PUNGENTISTIC.
