November 29th, 1880. Fellow-Citizens.?The Government has to buy the material upon whieh money is stamped, aud you are taxed te furnish tbe means wherewith ta purchase it. Paper coats, we will say, (fur the sake of illustration) on* cent an ounce, and trold sixteen dollars. So ynu soe that to establish a gold currenoy you are taxed sixteen hundred times as mueh as you would be to establish a paper currency When snoh is the cane, is there any wonder that times are hard ? In addition to the tax uooessary to improve and earry on tbe im provements aod keep in repair, you are taxed on one or two hundred millions lying idlo in the Treasury which ought to be paid out,and | thus relieve us of eo much tax. There ought to bo but ono material upon which money is stamped, for where there are several, just as cortain when the material or commedity of one of them rises in value above the other materials expressed on the faco, just so oertain will it be beugbt up by the loss valuable, thus diminishing the oir oulation and increasing your burdens. A legal tender paper currency, based upon all the property of tho country, is a safer ene than one based upon geld aud silver, whieh is only a part of the property, besides its cheapness is u>uch more convenient in every way. Follow-oitixens, wake up from this slum ber, this vampire gold has drugged yu, and besiege Congress with petitions until they change this iuenhus, called s financial sys. tem, which will soon reduce jeu to tbe con dition of tbe people oi Irelasd.

AN INCIDENT OF NAPOLEONIC WARS, rf&N tho memorable yea- of 1814, whcti the 4* allied armiss were eonoentrsted about Paris, a young Lieutenant of dragoons was engaged with three or four Hungarians,who after hacing recaivcd several smart Btrokes from his suber, mansgsd lo send a ball into bis shoulder, to pierce his chest with a thrust from a Isnce, and to leave him desd od the bsuk of the river. On the opposite side of tho stream, a boat man and liis daughter bad been watching this unequal fieht with tears of desperation. But what could an old unarmed man do, or s protty girl of sixteen? However, (be old soldier?for sueh the boatman was?hsd no sooaer seen tho t-faosr fall from bis horse, tbao he aftd his dsughter rowed most vig orously for the other side. Then, when thoy had deposited the wounded tnsn in the boat, theso worthy people crowed the river apaiu, but with faint hopes of reaching the military hospital in tiwn. "Y?u have bean vory hardly treated, my boy," said tho old guardtitnan to him ; "but here bib I, who have gone farther still, and eome home." Tho ,-ilont and fixed attitude of Lieuten ant S. showed the extreme agony of bin pains, and the hardy boatman soon discov ered that tho blood which wns flowing inter* cally from the wound on bis left sido would shortly terminate bis existenco. He torned to his youthful daughter. "Mary." he said, "you have heard mo tell of my brother; ho died ef just such an other wouaa as this here. Well, now, had there only boon somebody by to suck the hurt, his lifo would have been saved." 1 be boat thon landed, and went to look for two or three soldiers to halp him to osrty tho offioer, loaving his daughter in charge of him. The girl looked at the sufferer for a second or two. What was h?r emotion when she heard him sigh so deeply, now that ha was resigning l^e in the flower of his age, but that ho should dio without a mother's kiss. "My mother 1 my dear, doar mother!" said he, "I dio without?" Her woman's heart told her what he would have said. Her bosom heaved with sympathy, oud her eyes ran over. Thon she remembered what her father said; she thought hew her uncle's life might havo been saved,. In au instant, quieter than thought, she tore opes the ofBeor's coat, and the geoerons girl reoalled bim lo life with her lips. Amid this holy occupation the sound ?f footsteps was heard, and tho blushing hero ine fled to the other cud of tb* boat. Judge of her father's surprise, as he came up with the two soldiers, when bo saw lieutenant S , whom he expected to find dead, open hi* eyes and ask for his deliverer. The boatman looked at hia child, and saw it all. The poor girl came to him with her bead bent down. She was about to cxeufe herself, when the father, embraoing her with enthusiasm, raised ber spirits, and the offiecr thanked her in these prophetic words : '?You have saved my life; it belongs to yon." After this she tended him and became his purse; nothing would he tako bnt from her band. No wonder that with emoh a nurse he at lcDgth recovered. Alary was as protty as ibe was good. Meanwhile Master Cupid, *he is very busy in sueh sates, gave him another wound, and there was only oae way to cure it so very deep it was. Tho boatman's daughter became Madame 3. Her husband rose to be a Lieutenant General, end the boatman's daughter became as elegant and graceful as bdv lady of the eourt of Lsau Philtippe.

(Press tlio MartSiilbtfrif Independeat ) The iodioationa an (bat soma movement may be made this winter both before the Virginia and West Virginia Legislature*,' which will renew the agitation and discus sion of Virginia's settlement or her debt in 1S71- We learn from the London papers that a meeting te that effect was bald thera by persons interested in the bonds and eer tifieates. As a metier of information on the subject, we re-publish a tijost admirable let ter, written by Hon. E. Kovd Faulkner, to the Wheeling Intclligentcr in 1870 : '"*?

It was no purpose of Virginia, in her Fand. ing Aot of 1871, to repudiate any pertion-of her then existing debt. She then '-fonded" two-tbirds of her debt, and left "unfunded" with the oousont of the bondholders, one third to await the result af a settlement with West Virginia. This is all that aha thaa n*kcd of her creditors,and that was promptly acceded to her. And sue}>, it seems tp ma, is the only lags! constructian that aan ba given to thn oopy ot the certificate published by you. That paper recognizee an exietiifg indebtedness hy Virginis; it providee that the debt shall bear interest at the rsle of six per centum per annum; that tha Ststa of Virginia is to bold that propcrtion of tha surrendered bonds as a part of har nnfandsd debt in trust for tha holders of tha eertifii eates, and that they era te ba paid by whom?

No other view, I respectfully submit.lias evor been tskea of this nnfandsd portion of the dsbt of Virginis.and any atbar view would- impute to that Cammonwaalth un undisguised repudiation of oae-tbird of her d'ibt, which has never before bosa charged upon the Funding Aot of 1871. It is true, and I recret to see it, differing from the policy of 1871, the spirit of feroibla re-adjastuient is now stioog snd tnsy yet ba triumphant in Virginia; and yet with all this disastrous influence now unhappily op erating upon her public councils, I do net believe that you could get one prominent member of. the Legislature of that State, to give the coitiGoates tbo repudiating effect wliioh your construction would give to th* Funding aot of 1871.
