Dame Ship- ton's wisdom has the elasticity of a Greciaa owecle.--Hartford Courant •BrThe demand of the people for tho silver dollar has touched the heart «f the gold bug of the Cincinnati Oar telle and lie cries out: This is a government by the people, right or wrong. This bill is about to become a law. with the popular sup­ port, our further resistance will be useless. The country will have been launched upon the silver experiment, and It will have to be fully tried. And now, when this bill shall have become a law. we shall be as earnest tiiat the experiment of the silver standard shall be fully tried, as we have been aypinst the change to this standard. if 1 :"A» 'The Mormon delegate to Con- has introduced a bill for the ad­ mission of Utah Into the Union. He does not propose that his fellow-be­ lievers shall abandon their polygamous ' customs which are contrary to the laws of God and man, and to which the United States Government ought long since to have held them strictly re­ sponsible. He ouly urges that ma­ terial consideration of the wealth, re- sources and population of the territory, M their reasons for recognition as a sovereign State. It is not strange that the despotic Mormon hierarchy wishes to be freed from the direct control of the National Government, and to have the machinery of a State Government In its hands for strengthening its own power, and for more safely restraining the growth of Gentile interests. There are other bills also before Congress providing for a secret ballot in Utah, and for disqualifying poly gam is ts from jury duty in polygamy trials, as also punishing and preventing the crime of polygamy in the territories. It is to he hoped that these will become laws and not to be suffered fe remain as :-^W»d letters in future. "AWAITlNti CiWDUTIdM". *? Old Eaton, Connecticut's wooden nutmeg Democrat, says there is plenty •f currency "awaiting circulation."-- That is what's the matter. It is bar- <red out of circulation by a policy which makes it more probable to hoard than to invest. The difference be­ tween Eaton and the people is that the latter want the currency placed •o a basis where it wilL^n© Jongei Mawait Circulation,*' but wsgin to clr- jculate at once* A single dollar that circulates docs the country more v thaii the a million that is hoarde d more good than the billions of geld and silver we hold locked up in our mines. The very air we breath would aeon poison us all if it dirl not circu­ late. The poison that has paralyzed eommerce ahd prostrated the indus­ tries of forty millons of people, is money "awaiting circulation" till •?ery dollar of it would acquire the power of ten over the property and labor of a bankrupt people. That is tlie objective point of this struggle between the masses and a few monop­ olizers to fixed capital. It is a strug­ gle for a fair and free circulation that Will rescue the property and labor of the country from a colossal cornering %fkeratioaef the most villianQfis Wall street variety. . THE The ifni fell^tim& s/trateV ^fter an *11 night's session, on Saturday morn- Ing-fiiiail? passed ttie Bland Silver Bill, with the exception of the unlimited coinage clatter by a vote 48 to J) . The bill now goes-to the House, who it is generally believed will concur and the President app'^ve. The result is one for which the country should be pro­ foundly grateftd. Wail street has fought it with all the power at their command^ and yet every day has strengthened the measure, because of the Immense popular expression In its favor by the people. $ » The Ibttowffcg Is the ftdl text of ^»e bill as passed: He it ^enacted, By the Senate and House of JRcpresentatlves of the Uni­ ted States of America, iii Congress as­ sembled, that there shall be coined at the several mints of the United States silver dollars of the weight of four hun­ dred and twelve and a half grains Troy, of standard silver as provided iu the act of January 18.1837, on which shall be tlie devices and superscription pro* vided by said act, which coins, togeth­ er with all silver dollars heretofore coined by the United states of like weight and fineness, shall be a legal tender at their neniinal value for all det<ts and dues, public and private, ex­ pressed and stipulated in the contract. And the Secretary of Treasury is auth­ orized and directed to purchase from time to time silver bullion at the mar­ ket price thereof, not less than two million dollars worth per mouth uor more than four miilion dollars worth per month, and cause the same to be coined monthly as fast as so purchased into such dollars. And a sum sufficient to carry out the foregoing provision of tills act is hereby appropriated out of any money in the treasury net oth­ erwise appropriated. And any gain or seigniorage arising from this coinage shall be accounted for and paid into treasury as provided under existing laws relative to the subsidary coinage; provided, that the amount of money at any one time invested in such silver bullion,.exclusive of 6uch resulting coin shall not exceed live million dollars, and provided further, that nothing in this act shall be construed to authorize the payment- iu silver of certificates of deposit issued under the provisions of Section 254 of the Revised Statutes. Section *2--All acts or parts of acts inconsistent with the provisions of this act are hereby repealed. Section 3--That immediately after the passage of this act the President shall invite tlie governments of the countries composing the La+in Union, so called, and of sucii other European nations as he may deem advisable to joip the United States in conference to adopt a common ratio between gold and silver for the purpose of establish­ ing internationally the use of bi-metal- lic money and securing fixity of rela­ tive value between those metals, such conference to be held at such place in Europe or in the United States at such time within six months as may be mu­ tually agreed upon by executives of the governments joining in the same. "Whenever the governments,so invited, or any three of them shall have signi­ fied their willingness to unite in the same, the President shall by and with the advice and consent of the Senate appoint three Commissioners who shall attend such conference on behalf of the United States, and shall report the do ings thereof to the President who shall transmit the same to Congress. Said Commissioners shall each receive the sum of 82,500, and their reasonable ex­ penses, to be approved by the Secre­ tary of State, and the amount necess­ ary to pay such compensation and ex­ penses is hereby appropriated out of any money in tlie Treasury not other- wise appropriated. Section 4--That any holder of the coin, authorized by this act, may de posit the same with the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the United States insuni8net less than ten dol lars and receive therefore certificates of not less than ten dollars, each cor­ responding with the denominations of United States notes. Tlie coin depos­ ited for or representing the certificates shall be retained in the Treasury for payment of the same on demand. Said certificates shall be receivable for cus- tcrr.r*, and all public dues, rind when to received may be reissued* A JOKB ON A Twas a beautiful eve, a<*r the olese of the .year,. . : • The nymphs and ftUries were active, a old bachelor* beadt was completely- turned, Which for years had been on the axib. ] To her Grandmother's oot he could go wtthont fear, That his courage would vanish away, And enjoy a talk of a few brief hours That would bless him for many a day* f v The ffcir one was there and the wooing Weal on Pure and sweet as the doves In June. Till in the wee small hours when taking his leave, He . thought of a bridal--bo soon. He would be more brave and plead from his heart, She should know that he meant what be said, Still he feared that his bridal would never be reached, While it hung like a blessing o'er head. But neither saw clearly that night on the porch, ' ^ The reign they would held ere long. They'd enjoyed tingle blessedness, many a year, . And could not exchange for a sony. Soon he took tho way home much perplexed ia mind, To his brother he opened his heart, - Whose gruff consolation was "Human Mhum" 'twas a joke, That a man could not play his own part. Now the fairy nymph M»b, was helpful and kind, The bridal she took in her hand, Bore it ou to the store where sweets were profuse, And xmvned it to better their plans. Soon Bach Number Two started down to the place To try and make things turn out right. Though warned of danger he still had no lear With (good spirits) he'd work with fails might. Now the Queen of the Fairies when he tres­ passed their grounds, With a halter to lead him astray,' J i j Sought to capture his heart and ,a* ferldaJ. .to. gain. So her charms she was fane to display. " She did Rain (sweet success) in some of her plans, But this Bacli was to old and to wise. Had sooner pay price of :hree bridals he said Than be bothered with lierfor a wife. 'Twas a joke on the bridle no one could doubt that, And an "evergreen" joke in the town, • A joke to the couple who sparked it so late, And the Fairies who hovered around. O. Q.

And also those goods that were left at Chas. Anne?,'that she got and carried to Howards, have also gone to the same place. After her goods had left Mo- Henry, Ben Rosen put tfn attachment into Amies' hands to ^trve, and Ive went to do so but the things were not to be found. They had crawled off or disappeared in some way. The other suit he reters to Was instituted by ene Block, of Yolo. His claim was for board he claimed Jaines Ualliger owed him fer boarding a harness maker that left just before Galiiger did. His things were sold by the Constable and Block put in his claim then aud had his pay. So says the Justice's docket. But Mrs, Galiiger gave Mr. Granger 98 to settle that. Had Mrs. Galiiger known that Block had h<td his pay once she would have made him fteel worse than he does now. Those who had the least claims against James Gajliger said the most. . A mau's debts never lose anything by his going away.-- There are many of his debts most like ly larger now than they would hav© been if he had stayed here and settled them himself. A.B.
