TIIE GOLD JN THE TREASURY.
A month ago, on the 21st of July, we ques
tioni-il the BBfl ir.icy of tlie statcnionts issued
from the Treasury Department of the amount
of coin in poBBeasion of the Government.
Taking Bl a basis the oflicial Public De.bt
fltBaaJBICWt of tho lst of June, we sliowrd that
there was a discrepancy of about thirtcen
uiillion doHflfl between the coin reccipta aud
pojBflBBlfl in tbe month of June. and the coin
l.iilanco offic.ally reported to l>e iu the
Treasury on the lot of July." This
(lifbrcnce Wfl could only account for on
the BuppoRition that the Syndicate were
behindhand about thirteen million dolhrs in
the paymenta which they eontracted to make
on the lst of June for the new five per cent
bonds. To the opinions then aud suhscqiieutly
expressed we still adhere. Our suspicions
havo been strengthened rather than allayed bf
tlie Biibtcrfuges to which the Treasury Da*
partment haa so freely resorted to relieve
itself from this damaging BOOBBOttffB. One of
tbe most impudent of these <_uibbles we uow
proceed to expose.
The Secretary of the Treasury, it is re?
ported, on Uie night of the 14th of AagOfll
dcnoiinced the story of a delicit as | canard,
mannfactured out of whole cloth, and "sig
" niticantly" added that to make a deficicncy
of ten milliona in the Treasury coin would
reqnirc tbe cait ing off of Gftcen tons of gold. Wo
accept that "signiticaiitly." We attach quite
aa much signiticance. to the man nal lalxir of
inoving tiftecD tons of gold as tlie .Sccr.-t.uy
hiniself. Bat perhnos Mr. Richaidson did not
consider that the thing to be ec
connted for was how thirteen inillion*,
of gold gol into the Treasury in the DBOBth of
June; not how thirteen luillions could be
carted out of it without the knowledge of
those in eharge of the treasure. Ry rcieienco
to the Public Debt statements it will bfl BBBB
that ttie value of the coin and bullion in thfl
Treasury was reported to be f/l\\T_VBJo_i on tlu
lst of June and $87,507,403 on tlie Lst of July.
Now it is this in.rease of twelve Btfllioofl
which is to be accounted for. That is tli- BBl
the Secretary is called on to crack. Wfl
would have hira explain how lotnfl
twenty tons of gold got into the Tre.isiiry
wilhoiit attracting tbe attention of tbe public
or niaking a ripple in Wall St noi Tlie physic.il
(iiffieulty is to be met by bim, not by us. Wfl
niaintam tbat if be had stated thfl aiuount. ot
bis gold on tbe lst of July at seventy-four
inillions hia oflicial BtBtomeatfl would have
been consistent with eacb other. Tbat would
leave only a million and a lialt to bfl BOOOBBtO
for, and a million and a half hflppOBfl to be
just about the value of tho |old which waa
cxported from New-Yoik to Europe in the
month of June.
Man. penoflfl believc that tbere nre two
great fltockfl of gold in thfl CO ititry, one in thfl
United States Treasury and BBOthet in the
vaults of the New-York banks. This is an
error. There are in private hands in the City
of New-York a few btindred thOBflBB- gold
coius, exhibited iu brokers' windows aud used
for small transactions and for niaking el'
but tho mass of wbat is counted as Bpecie
in the bank statements BOB_lfltfl of Uuited
States Treaasuiy certificatcs for gold deposited
with the Uni ed Btatefl fot safo keeping.
That gold is fepflflted icgularly as coin
in the Treasury, aud ifl oCbet by th-1 certifi
cates, wbicb ere eimply a convcrtihle paper
money, pniCiillj B_B_BI to thfl BOiefl of thfl
Bank of EupUind or any ofher Hpecic-paying
bank. To BBOW bow uiiiversid is thfl Oflfl of
this gold-certiticite cuirnicy iu plncc of coin,
we may instauce tbe pBT-BOBtfl lor OBfltOBafl.
On Tuesday the Custom-house received Jl.'l,
000 from importers in paym.nt of dnties. Of
this snm only $21,000 wa* coin, ihfl icmaining
$403,000 being gold certiticates. That is to
say, in every tweiity-ow dollars paid in then
wa? only one dollar in goM and silv.r, the
other twenty being thfl <><>v( iniiiciit's con
vertible paper curreney looood to the d.posit
ors of gold in the Trcasuiy. We hope tbe
importers and all otheis who are outrn"cd
every timo tbe gold pNttilM takts i jump
tipward, apprcciate tbe "Mgniticanre" of the
fact that, with the tritting exceptions above
noted, the whole aviuial.lc Btoch of pold in
the United Stiites flflfll Of the Rocky Aloun
taiiia is in tbe United BtotOfl Treasury.
Our readers will now BfTOfl with us in
thinking the reported __CtOBOfl bfl BBfl BBOOth
of twelve million dollars, or twenty-one tons,
of gold a very extraoniinary circiim?tanco to
happen to _hfl Tr.nsnry, . Tbe pro.liu tion of
gold from all the mines in tbe United Btatefl
is now esfiri.ai.cd to bfl Iflflfl fhflfl. forty million
doUars a year, and the annual yield of all the
gold mines in the world to be but littl" bfl
excess 'of ? one hundred inillion dollars. The
gold product of tbe whole world lor thirty
days is therefore conniderably less than tbe,
twentv-one tons which BBBBB 00 inyst.-nou-ly
un.br thfl look and key'o! Mr. Richanlson in
tbe month of June. Remeinbering that tbe.
Treasury is the comnion depository for all thfl
gold east of tli.- Rocky Motintiins, botb public
and private, let us 100 wl.al offeoft takts plflOfl
when the anncal exjiorts BSdbed tho anmial

?jorirtvfl we efttbnatfl that from $_-,-00,fj-0 to
$47,000,000 of gold have been flfl-l ont of the
country in the twelve month* ended June 80,
1878, which. again, ia in exceas of tho produe
tion. But here we are met with thie cxtraor
dinary Btat?sment of the coin balance on the
lst of July. Acoepting thia, we are force.l to
boUofB that tbe ct.in in tho Treiwuiry haei de
creased only from $r?,<jW,000 on July 1. 187.,
to $-7,500,000 on July 1, 1878. We can only
nay that had it not been for fhe rernarkable
and unexpected apjrcaranc*! of these twenty-one
toofl, tbfl d'-crease would have In-en froin $S9,000,
000 in 1872, to $74,000,000 in 18?:,. What it stdl
more rernarkable, a ttntsmrnt ha* bern ymblinhed
in tcveral of the prineijtal journaU of Imt rity
profetting to give from the boo1.* of Ihe IfOBflBFf
Depirtment the anuntnt* of gold aud silver roin
and Inillion in all tlie Suh-'lreasnrirs and depos
itoriesin the United Stateton the |0tf of lune, and
the aggregatc amottnti* 871,100,000. The a.ciu.icy
of thisstateinent. has never encounteivd a sqtiare
deiiiti!, but, on the, contrary, aecording to a
report in one of tbe papers. active oflortfl were
niiikiiigin Wasiiington to lind out wlio 'pcached.
Whatever trnth tbere may be in th.se latter
statcments time must sbow. We nis.-t, how
cvr, that the statistics of the. cxpoitatioti and
produetion of gold are worthy of BOrtoOJ con
sideration. ln the former we bave taken no
account _f tho importa and reexports of for
eign gold, or the quantities brought here by
immigrants or consumed in the arts. Tbe
quantity annualiy packed into the teefh of
nativcsof this country is said to be soinething
euormoua. For the jfltilBfltOflot productiou we
are indebted to The London Leonomiat.
Finally, in fhe month of June, there was no
gold of any ooaaeqiiencfl import.-.i int.. tbe
country. No raravan of Treasury clerks ar
rive.d froni California with two or three tons
of coin in iron safes under military cscort.
Since, aecording to semi-ohVial advicee from
Wa-hingfon, thfl scttleraent with the Syndicate
which should have taken plaee BB the lst of
June wan not. etTecled until the ?)ib of July,
we are not to suppose that any coin was re?
ceived from them. It it, in fact, fl wholly incx

GOOD ADVICE.
Mr. W. C. Flagg made a apeoch recently at
ameeling of Farmers at Winchester, llliuois,
and thongh it was nnwiso in somo respects,
w<* tin.l BB inucli prnctioi.l souud scuhc in it that
we should be glad, if we had room, to print
it in The Tunm. The Farmers are by far
tlie most nuinerotis industrial class in the
United States. They rcprescnt an enormous
-flpItfl-L and an enormous annual production
of national wcalth. If they could couibino,
a* tlie railroad men have eombined, they could
carry everything before them in a majority
of tln* States. lt ia notorious, bflflBfflB. *******
as a class thoy aro acaro-ly at all re.presentcd
in Congress, and very moagorly represented
in the State Legislal orcs. They have allowed
tho agents of corporations to nearly monopo
Uaa tho business of politic.s and legislation, to
set up candidate*-, Ifl prop.se laws, to bargain
aud intriguo for special jirivilegi s ; aud the
Farmers have subtnisaively voted at their dic
t.-itioii. The restilt is that tho power of tho
railroad companies has ovcrshadoivcd every
lliitig elflB, It hiiK debauched a score of tbo
most etnincnt men in Congrefts?to bay nolhing
of tha multiiiiilc ot minor politicians whom it
tt****, body and soul?aud it has liecome a
sciious mu'.slion whether it has uot debauched
both politieal partics to such an cxtent that
there is no bflflfli of their ret'ormatioii. (___*
tainly the railroads havo got beyond legisla
tive control, unless we enn infusc into politics
a new spirit as a coiinteractiug infliiriice.
This spirit is t<> bo found only, we believe,
in tho agricultural class; and therefore Mr.
Flagg is clearly in the right when he tella
thc Farmers of Illinoi* that th.-y cominit a
gn-at mi. lako in trying to hold their gtBBf-l
and State organizations aloof from all politi?
eal action an.l lIlBUflllOfl It is the corruption
of politips by raUway l___f_ and Credit Mobilier
rmgs whieh has brought them to their present
ilisuiiss, and it is only through tho purilication
of poUtki that they cau .ind a pcruianent
r.li.-f. Tho old party managcrs, and wirc
puil;_s, and caiicus agents, aud " war-liorscs ?
of both the existinff orgaiiizations are now tuni
bttng over flflBB ollicr in their hasfe to grasp
the honest son of toil by tho hand, and aa
suro him of their undying devotion to the
agricultural interest. Tho Farmers are ahrewd
ciioiigh to distrust them all alike, and uot to
pledge thoir support .again to tho politicians
who havo betrayed them so often before. If
we aro not very much mistaken, they will
care very little this lime for platfoims, which
are only built to bc kicked to pieccs as soon
as tho eleetion is over, and will scrutinizc
pretty closely tho personal charaeter o? indi
vidual candidatea. They will choose good
meu, without much rospect to party ties ; and
we hope they will aend to Congress and tho
State Lag-dBaVa-raa ? large propoition of inde
pendent praciical Fnnners. This is a
bad year for Christian atatesmen with
ihtir poekets full of Pacillc Railroad
l.o.ids, polili'-iil lawyera who tako ro-taining
fiibb bflflfl railway companies, and profcssional
politieians vho strike the corporations for tho
bitlk of their eleetion expeneos, and then vote
themselves bark pay for their valuablo ser
vices. We look to tho Farmers, moro than
to any other class. to counteract the mia
chievous money inflnence which has filled our
public otiiccs with venality and seliishnesa ;
and so we say to the Grantrers, Don't keep
out of politica, but go in and cleanse them.
You bave the majority. Voto like intelligont
and independont men, and all the inouey of
tho inouopoUets cannot beat you.
WUAT ISr.VRASCB COMPANIES CAN DO
TO PRBVENT FIRES.
Fire hardeus what eudures ita heat. Per
haps this fact explains the apathy with which
the public receive the announcements of the
fast recurnng conflagrations, which aro be
coniing a Btercotyped featuro of tho news col
utnns of tho prc__. Vaat manufacturing es
tablishmenta, immensc warchousea stored with
their products, and stately rows of dwellings
are destroyed daily; villagea are obUterated
and tho business portiona of largo towus
"Chicagocd," nnd the preas disposes of theae
calamitieB with a sniall head-hne nnd an oc
casional editorial reference. Fires are incrcas
ing, both in number and dcRtructiveneas, far
more rapidly than tbe increase of wealth aud
population.ustif.e8; and thia in spito of the
itntiroved appliaucca for ?xtinguishing them,
until from a losa by fire in 1808 of $34,757,000
the annual Iors, excluaive of exceptional llres
like those of Chicago and Boston (if, indeed,
these may uow be called exceptional), has in?
creased to -uure than oue hundred luiliio.-- of
dollars> ....
These are easy words to write, but how few
comprehend their signiflcance. This losa ia
the irremediable loaa of #100,000,000 of the
producta of human iudustry. It ia the con
vcrsion of the braiu and brawn and blood
necessary to creato $100,000,000 of valuo into
ojibcs and smoke, and tho ori^inal eleinenta
out of which that value was creatcd. Aa
Biiining that tho labor which produccd thia
value is worth three dollars per diem, the loaa
is tho loss of tho eombined production of
more than 100,000 men for one entire year.
Hut the property destroyed ia turpliu pro
ilu.tion. It has been acciiraulated by the
pi-oiliicera after earning livelihooda for thein
Htlves aud faiuilit'B, paying their shares of tlie
cost of govenimcnt, aud bearing thoir pio
portious of all tho bunlcus of Bocicty. The
average savings of men do not exceni flve
pei cent oi their earuings. lt would
reQuirc, Uioi_.oi-, Uio labor ul 100,000
men for twcnty years to replace by surplua
production the property annually deatroyed by
flre in thia country. That ia, the equivalent
of the toil and savings of a community of
50,000 producers for one whole generation ia
each year swept out of exiatence. And this ia
not only so much subtracted from the present
wealth of tbe country, bnt it is tho loss of
the produclive power of so uiiuJi capital. On
the same as-uimpHon as before, it is the loss
of an annuity of #5,000,000, which is the uiea.
nro of what the capiud destroyed would have
continiied to earn. Thia annual loss is a
dinct IflX upon every departmeut of trade and
iiitlii.-tiy. It, ifl a tax which eiihances the cost
of every n.cessity of life, and b-ssens the. pur
cl.iiriin^ power of every day's lalior. We bny
uoihing of the price of wliich this is not a
part. We posaosa nothing, from the value of
whieh this is not ? continn.il subtrahend.
Morcover, it is not a tax which is rctnrned
to us as Kt those. taxea wliich build achool
houaes, and improvo highwaya, and auatain
(.ovcriiniiiit. The repayment of the greater
portion of this loss in thc shape of insuranee
recovered restorea nothing. This ia merdy
tlie distribution of so much of the loaa among
all thc contributors to the support of the in?
suranee coinpaniea. There are as many
moutha to leed, as many familiea to sheltcr
as before; but so much Iflfll ability to bfld
and aheltcr aa ia repreaented by tlie pn s.-nt
and prospectivo value of the property de?
stroyed. What Ls loat ia utterly and forever
lost, without hopo of recovery or recompense.
It ia painfully aigniflcant that thc majority
of fircs causing thia enormous loaa are from
preventible cauaes; and ia it not thc peculiar
duty of iire undcrwriters to tako meaauroa
for their prevention 1 All franchisea imply
on tlie part of those who cxercise them the
duty of a careful and inttlligent regard for
thc public wcal. They are always given sub?
ject to that supreme law, tho safety of the
peoplo. Tho fire insurauce companies possos
valuable frain hises, in entcring into the Bflfl*
sission of wliich they t-ntcr into an imp'.icd
Bglflflfl-BBt with Uio public that tbeir buBiin-*
shall bo 80 conducted aa not to be a cou
tinual threat again.t the security of society
-thut it alMill not give to the unscruptilous
an advantage over their honeat competitois
by offcring a prunitini upon .BIBlMinM-. and
crinie. And tho sooncr tho same
<i'u-' of honor, wliich has ahown it
II in tho prompt fultilment of writ
ten engageuieni-i, iflBflgBBBM and jastly
intcrprcts those high obligatious?all the
Ufhfll and moro sacred because committcd to

publifl, tho sooncr will thc bfljifl-BI oi' liic
uiidt-i writmg bct-oiiK piotiuilile and wholcsomc
Uth to ita prosecutora aud the community.
Ol course, it is to be expected that intelligont
tire iin.leiwiiters will in their own iuterest do
what they can to secure in cities proper huild?
ing laws, ellicieut tire departments, and aniple
water snpjilies. The atrongest, if not the
best, of inotivcs will impel them to this. Put
there are other things which, lcaving Bfl4 tii. M
uiulone, they ought vigotously to do. Ihcir
l.l.iiioii lo all tho econoiuiea of social and
busineas life is sueh that tho doing ol these
other things will bring ita own exceeding
gre;it reward.
Among the caiisos ot so frequent firea ia the
premiuin which h too gcn.-rally otiered by
insurauce companies upou inceiidiurism ; for
over insuranee is a prcinium upon incendia
rism. Tho coinpauies owo it to thc public,
and their ofliccrs owe it to thc stockhol.lei3
and patrons, that uo such temptatitm shall be
ofl'. r.-d; that in the eveut of loss, a certain
ahare of it?enough to aoctire his neighbors
and the community?shall l>e bome by ttie
insured. Tho public have rights in this mat
ter which far tran.ceiid the lifhtfl of tbe
companica, or of iudividuals. The bti-.iue.s_. o?
insuranee ahould not be so conducted as to
impose upon tho community a hurden of Iflfll
which, without insuranee, the community
would not be compelled to b-ear.
Again, whatever the firo insuranco compa?
nies may havo done directly to secure better
huilding law8, better firo departments, _kc,
tliere ia much which they can do indirectly to
make our cities safer, aud wliich rcmaius yet
to be done. Notoriously unsafc atruclure-,
when so placed aa to endanger aurrounding
property, should be charged a prohibitive rate.
Taritts of premiura ahould bc so lixed that it
will be unprotitable to build insecurely, to use
uegbgently, or to occupy with hazarda that
endanger the neighborhood. Here it ia in the
power of tire undetwtitera to prove thoni
aelves, what their occupation presumes them
to be, the frieuds and guardians ot legiiimate
enterprises.
Once more. To prevent, aa far as may bc,
thia vaat auutial subtractiou from tho na?
tional wealth, it ia tho duty of tire under
writera, wheticver there is fraud, to reftiao to
purchaso?for paymout of tho policy is pur
ctiaso of the goods. This it is their duty to
do, in spite of all blandiahmeuts aud iu deli
ance of all threate.
Hy theae threo things, by guarding against
over-iusurance, by chartfing outrageous haz
ards, whieh imperil ailjoining property, a pro
hibitory rate, aud by rcaistiug fraudulent
claims, the inaurance companies have it in
their power to relieve the people, in great
moasure, from the enormous tax now levied
upou their iudustriea by the dovaatationa of
fire. Public Boutiment will auppoit them in
bo doing. ___________________________
WHAT TO DO WITH TIIE BOYS.
The Pennsylvania Teaehers' Assueiation,
which haa just closcd its seasion in Pittsburgh,
ia deatined, we think, lo ac-omplish a great
