When Senator Stewart had con- . eluded, loud cries for Congressman H. D. Money, of Mississippi, brought him to the front. In sub- stance Mr. Money said : .;.

COINED MONEY. Coined money has always been and yet is in itself a tiling of value and this value ia of two kiiuls a i-.i i -i. .i general vatne derived irom the ma terial out of whih it miiiN .l, a specific or particular value determi nate by law. 'J'he first is called the metallic or bullion value; the second is known us the monetary worth or legal value. The latter is always a matter of law; the bullion va'.uo is one of estimation and opinion. Neither of the two coin metals of the world lias the best or highest elements of intrinsic or inherent value. Both are used in the arts, but it the nse to which a thing is put is to be a sole measure of the value, iron with its necessary product, steel, is the most valuable, as it is the most useful of all metals. But the vast abundance of this useful metal, denoting a supply unlimited, has deprived it of monetary func tions. ALWAYS TWO PlIEdOl'S J1KTAI.5. "Silver and gold, in this order, have been from the earliest times, and yet remain, the principal coin metals amonsr mankind. Silver and gold have been deemed the precious metals, precious indicates their and called The word money use and origin. For four thousand years silver gold have been mined, coined, used as inonet. Purine all and and that time those two precious metals have been furnished, both as to quality and as to the cost of production, in such manner and amount as not to be compared with any other com modities, as to admit of no compari son save with each other. It has already been said that tho bullion value of the coin metals was largely a matter of opinion and estimation. The bullion value of silver and gold, here and elsewhere, has always rested, and rests today, upon the conception, upon one opinion, upon one single and single item of belief; it is an old belief universally credit ed, based upon the actual experience of 100 generations of the human race. It is this: That, as there has been in the ages past, so there will be in the years to come, no dis covery of either of such metals which, as to quantity or as to the expense of production, shall make them comparable in value with any other materials suitable for the use of mankind as money. LEGAL AND BULLION YALl'E. "There has always been a differ ence between the commercial or bullion value of the two metals and the legal or coinage value. This characteristic or difference attaches to both. No denomination of the gold coinage of the United States has a bullion value equal to the legal value thereof. The gold dollar is not what it purports to be. The whole series of these gold coins is made from bullion only nine-tenths fine. I do not go into the reasons for this I state the fact. The whole of the gold coinage is tithed it is placed under par bullion value by the substitution of one teuth: this is why these coins out side of our own country pass only by weight, not by couut. The missing tenth is what is called alloy. This alloy is not gold at all: it is a mix ture of copper and silver only one tenth of silver, nine of copper. Of course this alloy reduces the com mercial value as metal of the whole series of gold coiu. This is now here spoken of because of a very curious claim made by the advocates of gold monometallism, that a piece of money whose bullion value may be less than its legal value is unsound and is dishonest. DIFFERENTIAL VALUES. "It is thus with the silver coinage, the dollar and that part called sub sidiary money. This is coined under par commercially. Like the gold coins the alloy is one-tenth, wholly of copper, and besides this the pro portion of grains of metal used di minishes with the denomition of the coins. The half dollar has but 194 grains, a good deal less than half the uumber of the whole dollar, the quarter dollar had only ninety-six grains; the dime has only thirty eight grains - the holder of leu dimes has only two hundred and eighty grains, yet ho can get halves or quarters or the whole for those dimes, notwithstanding the commer cial price of the metal in them is very far below its lawful value. The nickel passe for five ceuts the bullion valfle of the metajs which compose it is not half the legal. The cent coined by tho United States, made of parts of copper and 5 parts tin and zinc, is worth as metal commercially not more than one third of its lawful or legal value, which is the one-hundredth part of ( a dollar. NO "lIONESl" (?) 1IOXEY VlE. '.Still we have no other coin than this. All our balances, when set tled on coin, are paid in it. The largest payments are made in the alloyed gold, and the silver dollar with its groii") of fractional parts and subsidiary coinage performs the injunction of money is passed, paid and received as coinage of ultimate liquidation. Is this an honest con dition of business and finance? "According to the test of the ene mies of bimetallism that tho legal value of coined mono)' must be the same as the commercial or bullion value of the metal in it nothing could be more dishonest. Accord ing to that .test there js not, and cannot be, an honest dollar of .either silver or gold, nor an honest part on fraction of the same as for the nickel it is viler than the dime, the honest; pennv is banished and for- ever. "According to this same test and rule of coinage there is not an hon est coin in the treasury, there is not a piece of sound, safe money in the country. I have read the story of a poor widow, who long ago cast her mite into the treasury, ami it was said of her that BUe had given mor,e than them all. The mite was the smallest Jewish coin. It was worth in legal value about two mills of our money. What was the bullion value of the morsel of copper out of which it was made? Not one mill: not half a mill less than this. The coinage reformer of our day would say this was dishonest money un sound. Why, then, did the celestial benediction test upon a fraud so pajpable! Nay, but this was lawful coiu, havLug a legal value. It was indeed honest mouey. The law made it, she gave it. and the bleu:g and the glory of the mite yet remain.'' The American ff Ahead.

THE CHvPLAIN SEKVIlE Among orlli Carolina Troops During the (.'oiifi tier tit c War. fUy Hev. A. I). Bett, Clii.plnin 30th Keg-' intent. j Many of the people did think and : still think the State had a right to : peaceably withdraw from the Union, j When President Lincoln, iu April i lol, called on (iov. KUis for troops I to coerce the seceded States, the people felt that they ought to uni tedly resist him and his army. The men offered themselves by thous ands. Wives and mothers encour aged their husbands and sons to go. Some fathers took their sons with thein and died for what they be lieved was a just cause in the sight of (lod. Some preachers went as private soldiers, others as officers and others as Chaplains. A num ber of preachers freely gave sons. Those who went as Chaplains seemed glad to endure the hardships and privations of camp life for the sake of preaching to tho brave men, carinor for them when sick or woun ded and tenderly buryingthem when dead. V CHAPLAIN'S WOIiK I'KK IIIN(; IN' AMP. (ienernlly most of his regiment could attend on Sabbath. Often the men of other liegimeuts were en couraged by their officers to do so. In mild, open weather they often preached to very large crowds morning and night. The hearers stood, Bat, knelt or lounged on the around and eenerallv save ilevout I attention to the pprnions. Often the singing was grand. But while hearing a thousand strong male voices the heart was sometimes made very tender by missing the voice of sister, wife or mother. During two or three winters the troops built chapels, whero protracted meetings were held and many souls converted. But meetings were often held in open air, night and day. and many turned to God. PREACHING ON THE MAUCH. AV'hen troops halted for reot an hour or two on long days, they were glad to assemble and lie on tho ground and hear sermons. Many chaplains and visiting ministers thus had a chance to preach to brave men a few days or a few hours before they were killed. Four North Car olina preachers were visiting the Army of Northern Virginia when it started to Pennsylvania in June 1803. The others will be mentioned later. Dr. Deems, whose oldest son subsequently fell mortally wounded at Gettysburg, moved on with the army for five days and preached several times. He then turned back to North Carolina, not knowing that his own son and many other to whom he had preached were so soon to bo cut off. PR A Y' E It MEETI.VGS. When' not convenient to assemble the entire Regiment, the Chaplain oould often hold a very profitable prayer-meeting with one company and thus bring the men closer to to him as their spiritual guide. Some companies kept up family prayer at night everywhere. PERSOXAL PASTORAL OVERSIGHT. An efficient Chaplain would keep an alphabetical roll of each of the ten companies of his Regiment, not ing certain facts as to each man, as, his age, P. O., Church, converted or unconverted, &c. During win ter the Chaplain could talk with each Christian and write home to his Church. At all seasons he was ready to write to the homes about the sick, vouuded or dead. A Chaplain was burying some of his own men at Gettysburg and found and buried a man from another Reg iment, and wrote the fact to his father. Years after the AVar, the old father heard that Minister, was to pass through his part of the State, lie sent his daughter several miles to meet tho preacher and thank him for his kindness. That was a very tender interview. He was a thous ands times paid for his trouble and ten cent postage stamp. A ball passed through a soldier's chest, and the enemy was in close, hot pursuit. His Chaplain put him on his horse. Tho poor follow could not guide the horse. No time was to be lost. The (Chaplain leaped up be hind the man, held him on the sad dle and made the horse run. Every plunge of the horse roatje ,th,e sol scream with paju. But he caught his breath and said, "My poor ol4 mother will love you." PROCURING I1IKLES AND TESTA MENTS FOR SOLDIERS. This was a very important part of the work of Chaplains. They gath ered up and gave to the North Caro lina soldiers many thousand of the sacred volume. The soldiers were so glad to get them. Some of those books have a history. One lies be fore me as write, presented by some friend to "Mary E. Pv'i.s" when she was a child. On two fly-Jeayes. we find these words: "Mrs. Mary E. Betts, Chapel Hill, N. C, will be glad to know if this volume is a blessing to anyone. Give her the future history of this Bible. Dec. 9th 18G3." "Returned to Rev. A. D. Betts, Kenansville, N. C, Nov. 24 1S0, by Capt. J. C. McMillan, of 30th C. egt. Capt. M. kept it from Dec, l&Ey, rea4hig it in camp aud in prison." It had been gone; nearly twenty-five years. Tbc owner and giver of it had heard of its history just before she went to heaven, Sept. 5th, 1879. PROCURING TRACTS AND CHURCH PAPERS. The soldiers loved to read. The Baptist, Presbyterian, Methodist and other church papers were read in camp with more rpligh and profit than they had ever u&en read att home. Little tracts ofton put the great truths of the gospel before men with saving power. SCHOOLS FOR SOLDIERS. Some Chaplains got their Colonels to detail men to teach others during winter. In this way some men got ab.le tc read their Bibles aud write letters to tiw h?ved ones at home. Faithful Chaplains iperp busy men. The soldiers heard far more rebell ing than they would have at home. Many read Bibles, tracts, and papers more than they would have done at home. Most of them thought more mora about religion, prayed more, and felt their need of God more than they would have done at home. More of our men were saved as sol diers that would have been saved in ease, quiet, and earthly comfort at home. C A H)i Of THE WOUNPEI) AND THE Much of a Chaplain's best woik was just here.

Mr. Yang Y11, the Chinese Minis ter, is the most exclusive diplomat in Washington. Nevertheless, a few days ago a correspondent succeeded in penetrating his residence and ob taining from him his views on the recent war between his country and Japan, lie said the Chinese were defeated because they were not pre pared for war, while Japan had been getting ready for 20 years. Japan quietly got her army, and especially her navy, ready after modern meth ods, and when she entered the field against her old neighbor was in such condition that sho was practically irresistible. The Minister said the war was in no sense an index of the real strength of China. In fact, the Jap anese have been copying after the Chinese, who are a civilized people, for many years. But the war will be a lesson to China, and she will now begin a new volume in her history the most, important of all. The time is coming when" China will manufac ture for the whole world. China and America are friendly and will work together in many things. China of fers great chance? of which the Americans will avail themselves. ENGLAND DECLINES. The Offers of Arbitration in the Vene zue an Dispute by tie United i ta es London", June K: In the House of Commons to-day Sir Edward (irav, Under Foreign Secretary, stated that in January List United States Ambassador Bayard informed Lord Kimberley. Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, that the United States (iovernment would gladly lend its good offices to arbitrate the dispute between Great Britain and Venezuela. The position was ex plained to Mr. Bayard that the British (iovernment was ready to submit to arbitration within certain limits, but they could not agree to the exteic-ive reference upon which .Venezuela insisted. PKE1DEN HAL CONVE Y' I fO.V Of t lie Republican Par j Expectsil to he Held in May, so as to have a LeDghty Campaign. Was 11 inc. ton. June . The Republican National committee will probably meet in November this year, instead of December, which has been the month selected for many years past. While this con clusion has not been definitely reached, it. is one which meets the vj.'ws of the influential members of the ommittoe, ami little doubt is entertained that it will be adopted. The Republican leaders .believe that the next National convention should be held iu May, and inasmuch as the National committee must give six months notice of the holding of the convention, it will be necessary, therefore, that the committee shall hold its meeting in November. ft is purposed by the Republican leaders 'to inaugurate a campaign of education.' Jn ordev to make such a campaign effective it is necessary that sufficient time should elapse between the holding of the conven tion and election day. The forthcoming meeting of the Republican National committee, will consider one question of far-reaching importance to the party. At the committee's last meeting which was 'hold in this city in December, 1S01, a resolution was introduced by Henry W. Payne,' of Wisconsin, to base' the apportionment of delegates fo the National convention on the number of votes cast by tho Republican party at the preceding presidential elec tion.

Washington, June 14. The J (Iovernment printing oflicc rules, i as signed by the President, provide lor tlie grouping of the force not classes, 011 a basis of compensation. 1 hev provide for practical, cotnpoti tivc examinations, and for places for which examinations arc not practic able, for the registration of appli c.auts, and their appointment in the order of registration Limitation of age3 are fixed at 21 to 45 years for men and 18 to '.i for women. No application may be received for ail mission to one of the mechanical trades if the applicant has not serv ed at least live years at the particu lar trade, one year of which must have neen renaerca as a journey man. J n other respects the require mcntri for examination are yimilm to those in other branches of the classified service. Civil Service Commissioner Prof tor ,-tatcd this morning that he had nothing to say in regard to the re ports that the pension agencies were to ho brought into the classified scr vice, and his colleague, Commission er Rice, said tho premature publica tion of official accounts sometimes had a tendency to destroy plans in contemplation. There are now but few branches of the service not under civil service ruies. Steps are being taken to in clude them all, and it is a safe pre diction that the pension agencies, eighteen in number, employing over :.'no persona, the inter-S.tate com hu rce commission a'nd'other bureaus will eventually be taken in. From other authority than Com missioner Proctor, it is stated posi tively this afternoon that the United States pension agencies will be brought within the provisions of the civil service law not later than July 1st. The order to this effect will be promulgated within the next few days. This chango is deemed necess ary, not only to prevent dismissals for partisan purposes, but also for the improvement of the service, in asmuch as the average intelligence imong the clerks who have been ap pointed of late years is said to be much higher than those who secured places under the old method.
