Those conventions slso sdopted resolutions 'that all property should bear a ju proportion of the buidens n Isxaiion,' which, would nf course, include bonds. In Ihe canvass ol Ohio last fall, Ren Wade president pro tern, of the Senat, and whom the radicals intend tt make PreriJeni by ousting Johnson, thus expressed himself upon the question of taxing the bonds: 'Now, they talk of taxing those bonds. When a man talks that way, kok him in I he lace i.i'd you ook in tiie lace of a pBi iteniiary bud. I would not trust such a man . n mv sheep pasture n't. r dark. None hu' a democratic demagogue would have ihe face to propose such a thing ' So, then, according to Wade, none but r Democratic demagogue would have the face to make a proposition in regard to taxing the bonds, and Ihe man that talks that way car ries the face of a 'penitf ntiary bird.' This is raiher a severe reflection from so hißh n source upon ihe Republicans ho recently met in convention in this State and Ohio, und declared in favor of that demagogue pioposiiiun to tax the bonds. There are other evidences to show the insincerity of the Republicans iu declaring In favor of i he greenback policy. Soon atter Congress assembled in its present seaa itruiuuuii picugiu . II tt iaiiiiui luv VfOVernment lo redeem all the bonds of the United Slates iu coin. Senator Hendricks of offered a substitute fur this proportion, as lolloarst 'That the public debtof the United Slates, except where ihe law provides for ihe payment of coin, f h a 1 1 be paid and redeemed in the lawful money of .he United Stales, and and the faith of the?

Ihe proposition of Air. 1 1 endicks was voted down, Bnd that of Mr. Edmunds adopted, pledging ti.e taith of the Government lo the payment of the entire debt in coin.
