" ' '" - -.- ' MIL V00IUIBE3 ON TUB GUIl- ThpdblicT has read the telegraphic abstract of the great speech delivered in the United SUtes Senate, Tuesday, bjthe Hon Uanie) W Voorhees,of Indu ana, on t the resolntion submitted by him on the 13th of December last, on the;firiancial- or currency I question. The associated press outlines the generaf -character of this speech and conveys wbalL.is ,nO doubt an -in tela genUdea of its great trength. If we may be permittedto judge of it in ad vance of the receipt of its full text, we sisQgiidsay it was a credit toone ,of the greatest -statesmen of theWest, and would have reflected honorably upoffthe Senatein the 'palmtestTdays br yp)iie tee in great measure those which have .been laid down as the, financial platform of this paper. His 'animadversions upon the policy which'5 has fastened upon the people the necessity ?bf paying the1 interest upon the t government bonds in coin, when the original stipulation was that ihey v should be paid in legal tender n'otes, are just and forcible," and we have no doubt that the text of the sneech will show that they were still AT more forcible when he came to speak of that legislation which outraged the people still further by substituting "gold" for ,,coin,,! thus" inaking the interest on these bonds payable in gold and nothing else. . Here, indeed, were the rights of the tax-paying people of the nation "maliciously and treacher otalt if slaughtered and here was laid the stepping stone .upon which the bond-holders have risen to princely fortune at tbe expense of the plunder ed people. Mr Voorhees' tribute to the silver dollar is an eloquent one, and he is undoubtedly right in saying that it was debased without the consent of the people. It may be doubted, however, if wisdom suggests at present its un limited coinage and its creation as a legal tender for all debts. Fublic necessity, however, under existing cir cumstances, demands its creation as a legal tender to a certain extent and the good sense of the people protest against its being allowed to remain longer inferior to the paper on which tbe government issues its promises to pay. As to the repeal of the resumption act, Mr Voorhees but speaks the senti ments of a large class of his country men. Whether, indeed, his ideas on this subject are entirely practical in tbe present situation of affairs, admits of a douot. it wouia seem mat under the machinery which has been adopt ed to bring resumption about, we had almost as well, now go on to January next and learn what Mr Sherman's pblicy will do for us; but if the machinery were abolished, if the policy of contracting the currency were brought I to an end , - we would say Hnhesiiatin srly repeal : ,tbe &et,r for if left to itself resumption will come any way, truly not so early but none the less' sdrely. It. cannot be at all ques tioned that this system of contraction Which has been in effect fo aojmany months past, is, the Pandora's box whence haye sprung nearly i all our woes".,: The country, has not;: had' a sufficiency pf currency to transact its business, and a restoration to the avenu.es of trade of the whole of its legi timate currency " will ' ease the strain. If the repeal of the resump i liQB &cl is i accompanied by at change in the bill which brings about this end, updoubiedly we shall see a renewal -of ine.era.oi prosperity ; ouierwise now JMt Vdbthees will find himself on the popular side in his advocacy of the abolishment of the ational banking Bystemf It is unjust aod: oppressive in its operations, and the people feel daily .the consequences of fits, iniqui tous workings.

"Joseph B BatchelorrEsq, from the 'comjnitted on resolutions, previously appointed, I Buuuiiueu a . preamoie, ieuiung, , in brief, tbe history ; of the life of the deceased, 'followed by a series.of resor lutions! expressive of the sense of the meeting undeif 1 the; dispensation of Providence which ' iad removed the late chief justice. These were unani mously adopted , and were followed by eulogistic speeches by Messrs T C Ful ler, C M Busbee, E Q Reade, R T Gray, A WTourgee, Z B Vance, W J Clarke, EC Badger, F H Busbee and A A Mc Coy The speakers rehearsea the vir tues of the deceased, and dwelt upon his legal : atfainments and ; accumeh.' The addresses, as published in the Ral eigh papers, are marked by good taste and the estimates put upon the charac ter and i talentaJof ;the deceased ' are ireasurably truthful and sincere. His virtues were justly recalled and bis faults were condoned, his errors being ascribed to.bead and not to heart. One of the most marked passages in these addresses is in that! of R T Gray, Esq, who referred directly to Judge Pear son's habeas corpus decision in 1871, and in his review of this employed this language, which we reproduce here as a part of the literature of the day : The law involved in the .natter he was willing to leave to the cool judg- , ment of the profession and the world ; but the matters of fact, touching his conduct and motives, be desired should not be misconstrued by the present and succeeding generations. He da termined to lay before the Legislature statement of facts concerning tbe accusations made againBt him, and acted as his amanuensis in the prepa ration of a memorial which he after wards concluded not to present. A copy of that memorial I retained with ni8 percnissiuu, huuuhvb.ii. iu my yvaA session at Dresent. Upon a recent perusal of it, after a lapse of seven years, it appeared to me as it did when hrst prepared, a complete vindication of his course and motives. I believe that posterity will vindicate the in tee rity of his motives, if not the correct ness of his decision ; nay, more, Mr Chairmin, I have reason to know that many members of the bar of the State who for a long time disagreed with his conclusions, in their cool and unpreju diced judgment approve, even now, the wisdom and prudence of his course Gov Vance appears sixth in the line of speakers, and as a matter of general public interest we append his eloquent remarks entire : , Mb Chairman; It is a matter o general notoriety i that during the last ten years, Chief . Justice rearson and myself had, politically -not persunally drifted jvery widely apart : and it is, mereiore, ,no pouucai association inai induces, m e to , say anything on this occasion." -But I recognize the fact that the , reputation of a great lawyer and an upright judge is the ; brightest, in heritance pi a free people, and 1 know that just as law is reverenced for its own sake, anq its. expounders and administrators aire honored by a com munity, so fax it. demonstratef its love of kberty and Its capacity to maintain free institutions.

In 1859 quite a number came and some sixty log houses were erected before 1860 stepped in. Of these og jiDuae but few reianin. Uhristmas, 1859, saw a jovial crowd of dancers in one oftheseouseswindowlesswe believe, at that time. , The hardy , pio neers were after fun and , bad it. , Oa the night in qiiestion, about, two bun ureu sons oi tou ana seesers. oi guiu and their fortunes, ' and: seventeen adies ' had V assembled at the. above named place to partake of a frontier; terpsichorean. Marin us G. Smith was hen one of the beais of the town and his dress-suit consisted of pants made out of seamless sacks, and colored , blue by the aid of logwood. A lady now living in town had an elegant dress made out of flour sacks , also colored b v the aid of logwood. There were few 'white hirts in the neighborhood then, most of tle pioneers wearing woolen flan nel ones A man with a white shirt on was in style, and cbiild dance with his do&. off ; a man without any , would wear a coat buttoned up to the neck. Coats for dancing purposes did, not seem' to be any too numerous, conse quently the pioneers helped each other out. For instance, Alf. Nichols had six white shirts, which were all at that ball, and the coats of those six . white- shirted fellows went to cover the hacks of some one else. When one fellow had a dance he would lend his coat to anoth er, and then his turn would come, and so the white shirts and long coats were dancing all night, and went around among tLe two hundred men. There were no wallflowers among the seven teen ladies. But they say the supper for the occasion was a grand affair. Wash boilers full of coffee, great hunks of black tailed deer j a ck rabbits , fish , game, and delicacies brought from the Staterin cans, all went to make up a glorious supper one that the par takers, would like to see repeated. There may not hav been much style, but the seamless sacks and Hour bags saw as much pure enjoyment as does the finest and gaudiest attire of to-day. President akd Press. The White House is liberally supplied with news papers, only a tew oi wmcn are Kept on file. President Grant used to have one of his secretaries cut out the lead ing editorials on political topics in the New York daily papers, and occasion ally from papers published in other cities, which cuttings were handed to him in a bunch, for his perusal late in the afternoon or in the evening. Mr Hayes does not follow this system ; or rather he has materially modi bed it. It is the duty of one of the clerks at the White House to take charge of the newspapers received. Enough, of them to fill a bushel basket are receiv ed evervdav. Many of them are un important. iThe newspaper clerk cuts trotn most of the influential papers such editorial and other matter as he thinks of interest to- the President,' which he afterwards pastes in scrap books, of which, a series is kept. The President, from time to time, runs over these scrap books and sees what the news pa pers of the country -are Baying' about him and -. is administration.' . Mrs Hayes takes a number" of religious weeklies mostly of tbe Methodist de nomination; and these-with Harper's Weekly and copies of daily papers, con taming matters of special interest to the family of the White, Jiouse, areis- ually to be 'found ' scattered j over the library tables.
