JUajr The following announcement
of a candidate was found posted on a
tree by the roadnide and brought to
the editor of the Jackson Mississsp
jnan, who gave it a gratuitous publi.
oat ion :
A ttention , S overeigns !—Allow
me, through (his medium, to introduce
myelf to your acquaintance as a can
didate for assessor of taxes of Hind*
county. If any one should be so in
quinitive as to a«k why a man of my
'gigantic intellect should fiv so low,
my answer is this : The Feds, in May,
J8fl4, deprived me of my left wing;
therefore vaulting ambition must
stoop her (light to a level with my ca
pability. Again, should any one
wish to know why I do not have prin
ted bills, I would civilly reply that my
pocket-book would laugh for a week
at the rustle of a greenback, and
would never survive the faintest clink
of a metalic currency.
"Under those circumstances I hôpe
to be excusable.
'•With high regards, I am yours to
command. J. B. H ughes."
Ankuuoth of Jiuelci -ANi). —This
distinguished geologist one day gave
a dinner, after dissecting a Missis
sippi alligator, having asked a good
many of the most distinguished of
his classes to dino with him. His
house and ail his establishment were
in good fetyle and taste. His guests
congregated ; the dinner table looked
splendidly, with glawa, china and
plate, and the meal commenced with
•txcellerit soup.
"How do you like the soup?"
asked the Doctor, after having fin
ished his own plate, addressing a
famous gourmand of the day.
"Very good, indeed," answered
the other. "Turtle, is it notî I
only ask because I do not find any
green fat."
The Doctor shook his head.
"i think it has somewhat of a
musky taste," said another, "not un
pieasaut, but peculiar."
"All alligators have," replied
Bucklaod. " The Cayman peculiarly
so. The fellow whom 1 dissected
iliis morning, and whom you have
just been eating—"
There was a general route of the
whole guests . Every one turned
pale. Iialf a dozen started up from
the table. Two or three ran out of
the room and vomited; and only
those who had stout stomachs re
mained to the close of an excellent
entertainment.
"8ee what imagination is," said
Jhtckland. " If I had told them it was
turtle, or terrapin, or bird's nest
soup—salt water amphilia or fresh,
or the gluten of a fish from the maw
of a sea. bird, they would have pro
nounced it excellent, aud their di
gestion b<48n none the wors«. Such
is prejudice."
" But was it really an alligator i "
asked a lady.
"As good a calf's head as ever
^•ore a corouet," answered Buckland.
IPEC1E CURRENCY.
Among the "theories of probabili
ties" afloat is one which intimates
that the Secretary of the Treasury,
Mr. M c C ullocu , will, at the next
session of Congress, recommend the
resumption of a specie basis as rap
idly as it can he done without in~
jury to commerce and trade. F rorn
the outgivings of the TTotï. Secretary
in his conferences with the people
during his late trip from Washing
ton to the West, we would infer that
it is his earnest desire and intention
to bring before the notice of the next
Congress such measures as he may
deem necessary and expedient to re
store the business oi the people to a
specie standard und place the credit
of the country on a stable and satis
factory basis. He expresses a faith
that this desideratum caube realized,
without a financial crisis, by a fund
ing of the surplus currency and in
terest-bearing notes, and a check to
the further issuing of paper money.
To this the people will cry amen
for they are longing for a cessation
of the present depreciated, unsettled
and uncertain circulating medium
and for a return to the good old
fashioned "rhino-plastic," which has
the ring and touch of the substantial,
genuine metal about it
Mr. MrOm.i.ocn, as a wise and
capable financier, enjoys we believe,
the unlimited confidence of the Na
tion. We trust he may be enabled
to make it appear by his future
manipulations of the currency that
that confidence has not been mis
placed. If Congress in its sphere,
will only sustain him in his aims at
ameliorating the finances of the coun
try, we think there is no doubt that
he, in his sphere, will prove equal to
his share of the emergency.
Iu his recent speech at Fort
Wayne, Indiana, he enters quite
largely and explicitly upon the cur
rency question. We regret that our
space limits us to a reproduction in
part, only of the report before us of
his able aud statesmanlike views anti
opinions expressed on that occasion.
We have room only for the following
extract :
You know that I did not seek, as
I did not expect to be, Secretary of
the Treasury. To this fact I attrib
ute in a great decree the good feeling
aud indulgence that have been mani
fested towards me in the very trying
and responsible position I occupy.
1 accepted the office of Secretary of
the Treasury with great distrust of
ray ability to meet the public expec
tation, but with a, sincere desire to so
conduct the affairs of this great de
partment as to aid in restoring the
credit of'the government which had
been damaged by the greatness of
the public debt, and the uncertainty
in regard to the duration, if not to
the result of the war, and in bringing
up the obligations of the Covern
ment to the specie standard. I am
not one of those who seem disposed
toQrepudiato coin as a measure of
value, and to make a secured paper
currency the standard. On the con
trary, 1 belong to that class of per
sons, who, regarding an exclusive
metallic currency as an impracticable
thing among an enterprising and
commercial people, nevertheless look
upon an irredeemable currency as an
evil which circumstances may for a
time render a necessity, but is never
to be sustained as a policy. By com
mon consent of the nations, gold and
silver are the only true measure of
value. They are the necessary regu
lators of trade. 1 have myself no
more doubt that these metals were
prepared by the Almighty, for this
very purpose, tliau I have that iron
and coal were prepared for the pur
ijoses in which they are being used.
^ favor a well secured convertible
if
paper currency. No other cau to
any extent be a proper substitute for
coin. Of course it is not expected
that there shall be a dollar in coin in
reserve for every dollar of paper in
circulation. This is not necessary.
For all ordinary home transactions a
paper currency is sufficient, but there
are constantly occurring periods
when balances between countries,
and in the United States, between
different sections must be settled by
coin. These balances are Iusignjß
cant in amount in comparison with
the transactions out of which they
arise, and when a vicious system of
prédits does not too long postpone
settlecnents, they are arranged with
out disturbing movements of coin.
Whenever specie is needed for euch,
a paper currency of the country
should be convertible into it, and a
circulation which is not so converti
ble will not be, and ought not to be
long tolerated by the psople. The
Besent inconvertible currency of the
nited States was a necessity of the
war, but now that the war has ceased,
and the Government ought not to be
longer a borrower, this currency
»hould be brought up the specie
standard, and T see no way of doing
this but by withdrawing a portion of
it from circulation.
I have no faith, sir, in a prosperity
which is the effect of a depreciated
curency, nor can I see any safe path
fur us to tread but that which leads to
specie payment. The extreme high
jirices which now prevail in the United
State«, is an unerring indication that
the business of the country is in an un
healthy condition. We are measu
ring values by a false standard. We
have a circulating medium altogether
larger than is needed for legitimate bus
iness—the excess is used in specula
tions. The United States are to-day
the best market in the world for for
eigners to sell in, and among the
poorest to buy in. The consequence
is, that Europe is selling us more than
she buys of us (including our securi
ties, which ought not to go »broad,)
and there is a debt rolling up against
ns that must be settled in part at least
with coin. The longer the inflation
continues the more difficult will it be
for us to get back to the solid ground
of specie payments, to which we must
return sooner or later. If Congres»
shall, early in the approaching session
authorize the funding of legal tenders
and the work of reduction is com
rnenced and carried on resolutely but
carefully and prudently, we will reach
it probably without serious embarrass
ment to legitimate business—if not
we «hall have a brief period of hollow
and seductive prosperity, resulting iu
wide-spread bankruptcy and disaster
There are other objections to the pre»
ent inflation .It is, 1 fear, corrupting the
public morals. It is converting the
business of the country into gambling,
aud seriously diminishing the labor of
the country. This is always
the effect of excessive circulation. The
kind of gambliug which it produces is
not confined to the stock and produce
boards, where the very terms which
«re used by the operators indicate the
nature of the transactions, but it is
spreading through our towns and into
the rural districts. Men are appa
rently getting rich while morality Ian
guishes and the productive industry of
the country is being diminished. Good
morals in business and sober, perseve
ring industry, if not at s discount, sre
considered too old fogyish for the
present times. But I feel that this is
not the occasion for croaking, and per
haps I ought to apologize for the train
of remarks into which I have been led.
The French in Bomb .—Since
the capture and occupation of Kome
by the French troops in 1848, and
the restoration of the temporal power
of the Pope under the protection,
first of the Republic and subsequent
ly of the Emperor of the French,
there have been periodical rumors in
reference to the withdrawal of the
French forces. The question of sus«
taining the temporal power of the
1'ope is certainly one of the most
complicated problems of European
politics. In Koine itself there still
exists a strong element of republi
canism—akin, it is true, to that spirit
of license which too often marks the
career of European nations when
they are striving to set up liberal in
stitutions. And still another party
in Kome are disposed, since the re
vival of the problem of Italian re
construction, to add the Roman ter
ritory to the Kingdom of Italy,©md
to constitute Koine once more the
seat of Imperial power, whence may
emanate the laws which shall govern
the whole peninsula.
These considerations added to
others which oppose the temporal
power of the pontiff, would render
the position of Fius IX very insecure
if he were left to depend solely upon
the support of his own subjects.
The Emperor of the French has
accordingly maintained, ever since
his ascension to the throne, a con
siderable force of French troops in
Kome, and has up to this period given
his firm support to the authority of
the Pope.
It seams, however, from the latest
news received from Europe, that
some arrangement has been effected
by which the French troops will be
gradually withdrawn, that they may
be replaced by the forces which the
Pope may be enabled to organize
from amongst his own subjects.
We think it likely that this pro
ject of withdrawal like several others
tfiat have preceded it in former
years, will fall, and that the Pope
will still choose to rest the support of
his authority upon French bayonets,
rather than upon the fidelity of his
own subjects.— N. O. Crescent.
