While we are crowing over the re Bult let us give credit to whom it belongs. Tho. city committee, headed by Messrs. Filbeck and Early, aided by the staunch workers in the party, carried the election yesterday for the Republican party.
The Democratic press has been claiming a victory in the township elections in the state by asserting that the Democrats elected 516 trustees to 487 by the Republicans, giving the Democrats a plurality of 38. These figures are correct, as are also the ones that show the Democratic plurality in 1882 to have been 86, a Republican gain of 48 trustees this spring.
The tail of the Morrison kite disappeared when the head ot the tariff bill, "Be it enacted, etc.," was cut off yesterday. With it goes too all the am unition of the spurious reformers who proposed in the fall campaign to coquette with free-traders and protectionists. The fall of this bill is clearly a case of riding on two horses and the piebald team of moderate piotection and tariff for revenue only with the most accidental of protection would not work well. The incongruous elements massed to carry the Morrison bill would appear sooner or later but great disturbance and mischief have been averted by this early failure. There was rallied to the support ol this bill the improvident freetraders, recklessly trifled with the vested interests, capital, the laborers' support, and the prospering industries of the country, in the hope that free trade might be the shibboleth to save them from more defeats and the more pro dent democrats, who at heart believing in the wisdom of protection, yet trifled with their convictions, as they too ex perimented with free trade to try if it were the pass word to success. If the Morrison bill was a failure to test the national faith in protection it has shown very successfully that even the reckless Democratic party dare not take the stump on the tariff issue. But Mr. Morrison was not masquerading he was heart and soul for his bill. His defeat puts out of the race the one, who after all has been the most consistent and formidable candidate for the presidency on the Democratic side. Mr. Morrisen had a policy which led to his impolitic bill but there is Mr. Hendricks who has no policy, but is always Policy Bill—it is dangerous for a Democratic leader to commit himself too far. Many a time-serving partisan breathed freer yesterday, when the fatal five was recorded. He had voted for the bill because it was Democratic, but he knew his constituents wanted none of.it.
The tariff laws will be most judicially piuned by those who believe in their necessity. There will be nothing done to them untill after the fall election has reaffirmed the country's desire to continue Republican doctrines. The future readjustment of the tariff by the Republican party will be judicious and conservative of the country's interest. The Morrison bill would have been the beginning of a policy which would have trimmed the tariff on one side and the other till like the cheese divided by the monkey, nothing would have been left. TJnlucky bill, whether successful or not—unlucky party with divided counsels, contending leaders and coming certain defeat.

Prosperity in South America. New York Bulletin. There is at least one part of the world from which we receive commercial exchanges that would seem to be exempt from the business and trade encouragements which have, overtaken most other countries. We refer to the river Platte. There is no room there for the average bear. According to the Buenos Ayres Standard of March 23d, everything continues to enjoy a phenomenal prosperity. "The wheat and wool crops surpass those of all previous years cattle and sheep are selling so cheap that many owners of the new lands are stocking and settling on the same "never before were so many new farms being laid out as at present." "Emigration from Europe is as strong as ever, but such is the demand for labor that every man at once finds employment"in the capital trade is.brisk, with a stir in the streets and a general activity that surprises strangers." "Thousands of Chilians, with their families, are crossing the Andes to meet the emigration from Europe, as it were, for the purpose of settling in the magnificent Argentine valleys." "The steamer Meath has just returned from London to load another mutton cargo not less than 10,000 frozen carcasses are hanging up at Campagna ready for shipment.

Gold in England and Holland. Boston Advertiser. Two important announcements have been made in regard to foreign coins. The English Chancellor Exchequer is disposed to coin half- xipon it. sovereigns, containing 10 percent, less gold than the present coins, and the Dutch legislature demonitized 25,000
in Holland. Both announcements are a surprise and may remind us that our own coinage is not BO exclusive an affair of our own as is generally assumed. Both announcements show also, what a°d in behalf of Dr. Courtnght. is very important, that the operations of a mint, though ministerial and cler-
fc'.?iT°krX,T™^rE -n out.-»d mb o» «.» Je-y 1. UA Am a onn nilt. in effect.
An English sovereign contains 160 623 troy grains of gold, 11-12 fine. In other words, the sovereign contains 113 1-623 troy grains of fine gold, while way uro the American $5 gold piece contains the dog arrives. 116 2-5 grains of pure gold. The American gold coin contains one grain of alloy to every nine grains of pure gold. This is the reason why it is BO difficult to translate English bullion
for standard metal into quota
tions for American standard metal. In fact, the words standard gold have not the same meaning in England and the United States.
The American mint places the value of an English half-sovereign at $2.4325. If the chancellor of the ex chequer reduces the bullion value of the half-sovereign 10 per cent., its value in the United States will be $2.189925, and the value of a pound sterling consisting of two new half-sov-ereigns would be $4.37985, instead of $4.8665, as now. It is not credible that the change will be adopted, and that the English mint will cease to coin an ounce of gold into £3 17c lOJd, as the present law requires. But if Mr. Hugh C. E. Childers prevails, he will reopen the entire coinage que3tion in Great Britain. The times may be ready for this, as most English coins, or very many of them, are known to have suffered from abrasion to a degree which makes thtm unacceptable at the Bank of England. That bank mutilates every coiu of that kind upon presentation, and throws the loss upon the person presenting such a coin.
The idea that Mr. Childer's act may tend to save gold is not borne out by the decision of the Dutch, who are evidently trying to attract gold by displacing silver. Tne total circulation of Holland on September 15,1883, was $151,36V«05, namely $76,871,505 in paper, S 3,000,000 in gold and $56,489,000 in bilver. M. Ottomar Haupt is of opinion that Holland contains about 150,000,000 florins of silver, against 220,000,000 florins in the Dutch colonies. Holland is known to have lost gold, which it now tries to win back by throwing apart of its silver out of the currency.
The effect of the Dutch act must be to cheapen silver and to make gold somewhat dearer. The English proposition might tend to cheapen gold, provided the new half sovereigns could be floated and maintained at par. But this result is not likely to ensue, as the English have a persistent way of demanding gold coins of the standard weight. Instead of taking $2.19, and calling it $2,431, the English are more likely to clamor for fullweighted sovereigns. For this reason both England and Holland are likely to enhance the present struggle for gold, in which our own country acts the part of a feeder that is to say, we keep the silver and let the Europeans fight over the gold with which we supply them just now in the most liberal manner. On the other hand, it appears that neither England nor Holland has a really perfect currency. Holland tries to repair its bad currency and England allows its good currency to deteriorate. The English currency will deteriorate more rapidly if the chancellor of the exchequer carries his astonishing proposition into effect. In our currency misfortunes, then, we have good company.
