The Northern papers of both par- ties seem td be equally indignant over the -iemonetizatlon of "Dad's Dollar." Thev annear to recard it as some thin cr j r A -O O personal an attempt to rob them of their immense wealth, for Northern newspapers often get very rich, whilst -Southern ' newspapers very , m ' 1- . , ttt ' -iaiciv, iivvci gcsii iicii. . ii usee iiuui our exchanges that the New York .TFbr&Zcalls-it "the great swindle," 'and asTHe Democrats iu the main are responsible for the great crime, they are in-the estimation of the New York Democratic daily, (a paper we have long thought possessed of but little principle) nothing but a set of "swindlers." Without entering into a discussion of the merits of the bill, we may say that when a very large majority of a jjni uj iu uvugicsa nuiic.iui a uicaauiC) doubtless after proper reflection and in full view of all 'its "probable bear ings, it is not becoming in the pro fessed organ of that party in one great section of the country to de nounce that majority as a set of "auinfllarfl " "Rut. trtia ia Vio man rf yonr partisans. You must think as 1 do or yoa are a fraud.' The leading newspapers of the North really ap pear to belong to the clloated bond holders.? The silver bill will inflict great injury, say the papers, upon that class of men who have grown rich out of the misfortunes of their country, and every leading organ of thought makes it almost a personal grievance. The Richmond Dispatch happily say 8: ; "There is a vulgar air about the demean or of leading Northern editors in what they have to say in denunciation of silver that would suggest that they are the carriage drivers and footmen of the gold-worshippers. They are superserviceable in their allegiance to those whose livery they wear, and they put on a great show of disdain to wards simple honesty when it comes too near the shining retinue of tbe devout." " We have seen no very valid orim posing objection to the bill. It is possibly an experiment in so far as you cannot confidently affirm what will be its influence upon the curren cy of the country. It may perchance have some of the effects that the or gans of the : bondholders aver it will have. Silver is an excellent metal, ana was once hiehlv imsed. It. ia O J JT w " I well adapted to the uses of trade,and we cannot see why it may not have a steady value just as gold has. The advocates of a gold basis endeavor sedulously to depreciate its value to debase it as a legal tender. It is an attempt merely to uphold the inter ests of the bondholders whose "fiun- kic." aceordtog w the Dimteh. the In the North- -wbawvab AC west eome of the great Republican papers have been the steady advo cates or restoring silver to its old value. . In that section at least there appears to be some indenfin1 Ant. I -i thinking ' Th hrAuA 7 i Muumng. j.fte bondholders clearly .mu.iuiv own inose papers that have t " stood forth as the champions oF the reinonetization scheme. After all, the arguments urged against the . Silver bill- come from men, or their mouth-pieces, wb 9 wish to secure entire control of the gold market of this country. They are, for the most part, men who gamble in the wealth of the "nation," and if they can control all tbe-goldr then of course they can give it atern- porary fictitious value, and henoe, as they must be paid in gold when (their United States bonds are taken; up, they are thereby the richer and; that probably accounts for "tho. milk . in the cocoanut." ' 1 . ' As to the intrinsic value of silver, which was a legal tender in our coun try prior to the war, and would be so now if there were no plethoric bondholders with servile sheets to de ceive and hoodwink the people the Savannah Netos says: j The truth is that all the talk which we have heard and shall yet hear from these advocates of a single gold standard is spe cious sophistry. In the first place silver is really intrinsically not a debased metal. It has fallen in value because of its demone tization in Germany and the unlawful and unconstitutional course of a past Congress of this country in the same direction.: Let it be remonetized here and the United States alone would offer an immediate market for' whatever surplus of silver there has been created by the demonetization of thatmeta by Germany. The. product of the Ameri can mines is placed at about $40,000,000 per annum, an amount which would not equal the capacity of the mints to coin, and besides this, the supply of silver now shipped to Eastern countries would be ab sorbed at home, and it is estimated that this alone would at once advance the price of that metal at least to tbe proportion of sixteen of silver to one of gold, which would place the dollars of the two metals at par, the one with the other." When silver is remonetized then gold ceases to be the only world wide standard. We believe it will have as fixed a valuation as gold, and will be of great service to the country and to the world at large. BODTWELL TO THE FRONT. Senator Boutwell has spoken. The oracle is no longer dumb. "Hole in the sky" is- once more heard from. This time it was at LoVell, Mass., and on Monday night last. The oc casion a political gathering. And what did Boutwell have to sav ? Nothing you may be snre of bis own great failures when in Grant's cabinet. But he is dissatisfied with the South. The people of that sec tion cannot be trusted, for they have not done enough yet to prove their honesty and loyalty in the estimation of this Massachusetts traducer. There is one pledge thev have not made. Hear the oracle: "Many pledges have been given recently by leading Southern Democrats of their good purposes in the affairs of government; out tne pieage to allow every duly au thorized citizen to vote, to value his vote honestly, and recognize and maintain the government which the majority shall so set up, has not been given. All other pledges, this wanting, are of no value. This pledge made and honestly kept would bring order, peace and prosperity to the South, recon ciliation and contentment to tbe whole country., It is one pledge that we ask, not many. ,.The many we have; the , one is wanting." , . If he means that the vote of a; car pet-bagger or a negro does not count as one, then he is mistaken, if he means that the negro is not allowed to vote then he misrepresents. If he means that the Southern States do not mean to allow the colored people to. vote in the future then he states what is not true. If he means to say that it is not the full purpose of j the South to uphold and defend; and per petuate civil liberty and local self, government, then he . does not know either the Southern people or what he is talking about. The truth is, Boutwell is a great political fraud, and he is only preparing for a chance in the future "to fire" the Massachu setts "heart" over some fancied out rages or imagined wrongs on the part of the Southern people. We venture the ballot is as free in the South as it is in the North, and that the genuine underlying principles of a free Repub lican government have stronger, sin- cerer, more devoted tnends in South land than in Yankee-doodle-dom by tenfold. THE CAUSES OF DEFEAT. General Longstreet attributes j the defeat of General Lee at Gettysburg mainly to four causes: 1. The absence of his cavalry. 2. General Lee's Over- confidence in his troops. 3. The fail ure of Ewell and A. P. Hill to sus tain Loncstreet's charere on th spnnnrl day. 4. General Lee's loss of his usual vim a. uumuvQ. All UiA V UC flU, VJCll. Heth says it was owing to the absence of Stuart with the cavalry. Colonel Walter Taylor says it was owing to Stuart, Ewell and Longstreet. Gen. Lee understood it to be because, mainly, he was deprived of the! use of his cavalry. Gen. Lee had a very mgn opinion or xnortn Carolina's Ereate8t dk. h.m w t, Pender.

And vet it has admirers and defenders, even in the South and in North. Carolina. . i Secretary Thompson, .acknowl edged oc'all ands to-W an honest man seeking t6 discharge his duties with fidelity, has made a report .that contains many startling facts; and figures. We will copy some of them. During the last thirteen years the sum of $130,000,000 has been spent "merely in repairing our naval vessels. The seven sloops of war built during Mr. Robeson's administration, he re ports, or worse than the old ones. Three of these are undergoing expen sive repairs, and tbe other four are kept afloat at the risk of the lives of those oh board. Of the older ships,, the original cost of thePensacola was $500,000, and her repairs cost $1,000, 000. The original cost of the Kear sage was $300,000; she was repaired at a cost of $600,000. The Lacka wanna cost $450,000; she was re paired at a cost of $766,000; and so on through the list. Now these statements show in part what sort of government we have had since Grant went into power March 4th, 1869. Surely, surely, Congress should take hold of this old rotten navy, and stop all extravagance and misapplication of I moneys, j Mr. Thompson will no doubt do what he can, but it is the duty of Congress to give the country an efficient, but a B -. J small and economical navy. Only think of one hundred and thirty mil- lion dollars of the people's hard earn- ings being squandered-in simply & , b , , 1 J patching up the old hulks of a rot- ten navy, aud that now the country is almost defenseless. Reform, re trenchment mast come. The Richmond Enquirer says: "Mr. Tildcn hit the nail squarely on the head when he said 'the increase of power in the Federal 'government during the last twenty years, the creation of a vast efflce holding class, with its numerous depend ents, and the growth of tbe means of , cor rupt influence have well nigh destroyed the balance of our complex system.'" . The great cryingrcvil 19 tha$ all over the land the pbwer is vested in the hands of a few. As the Memphis 'Avala?icie remarks, the Tammany system has "spread .out over the country at large," by which all; tho real potter gets into the bands of a small fraction of the people. The Tammany system has beeti a groat curse to New York where it origina ted, and, whence it spread out until it ramified the South as well as the North. The bid convention system is much like the Tammany system. It puts the power, in the hands ,'of a very few. The primary election plan will cure that evil. f We referred yesterday to the lev. Mr. Talmage's political harangues. The reader must have been struck with his exceeding coarseness land vulgarity. We give a brief specimen of his, irreverent way of speaking even when in the pulpit and he is sup posed to be solemnized for the Occa sion: ; 'Great is the bottle. Oh, rum jug, we bow down before thee to worship. : We pray that thou will destroy all those ', who do not bow before tbee and put them out of office. And this we ask .in the name of Schiedam schnapps and lager beer and old rye whisky. Amen and amen. rLatfeh ter.y b The devil is represented in 1 the scriptures as a roaring lion going aDoat seeking whom he may devour, If he was one of Rev. Mr. Talraasre's auditory on that occasion he -1 was doubtless an amused .and interested listener. That will do. The . Republicans have only fourteen States left,' in cluding such "small potatoes" as!Ne braska, Colorado, and "Little Rho dy," not . to mention the other New England parishes. The Demoqrats have twenty-four States, including the great States of New York, Penn sylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri. Texasy Georgiaj and soon; What a mighty revolution we have all wit nessed.

Hon. D. W. Voorhees expressed in a few, words the estimate that j will finally be placed upon the late Sena-. tor Morton, whose unexpired terfn he will fill. Said Mr. Voorhees: I ; - "He was a man of commanding ability, of immense executive force, and ranks as one of the greatest party leaders in - Ameri can history." Mr. Voorhees will take his seat on Monday next. ; There were forty-three failures in Boston in .October,representmg, how ever, less than one million dollars. The average liabilities were $18,666 27, whilst the average assets were but $2,828 16. A bad showing that? Why do they not go into bankruptcy and get rich?

They will support him, for instance, in any denuite and consistent policy. but they cannot support civil service reform in which there is a considera- ble mixture of the old civil service abuses. They will support him, too, in an open fight with Congresi or this point, but the fight must be open and persistent. They cannot sup port him in hostilities which j are chequered with private dickering and compromise, and of which they never know the real bearing. lie-must, in short, himself lead the way, and make known his aims and motives as he goes along.

To settle a dispute, will you be kind enough to deeide whether there is any 'difference -in the w'eight or value between one silver dollar (not a trade dollar) and four 25 cent pieces? and oblige A Subscriber.. Reply We have answered this many times. The silver dollar coined up to 1873 weighed 412 grains. Tbe fractions of the dollar were re duced in 1853 to their proportion of 384 grains to the dollar. The frac tional silver currency, or "subsidiary coins," are therefore worth about seven per cent, less than the old sil ver dollar. ; The trade dollar author ized in 1873 weighs still more, being 420 grains Troy.
