THE “TRIBUNE” (PLAN FOR RESUMP- - During the somewhat animated discussion of the currency question, a | number of ptans for the resumpt’idn of specie payments have been submitted.to public. consideration, by bank&rs, journalists, merchants, politicians, | and statesmen. It seems to be gener- | ally admitted that the -caucug bill rushed through ‘the late Congress without debate or due deliberation, should either be replaced by a new enactment, practical in its features, or so amended asto-provide the means for emabling the government to give it validity.:- Whatéver action may be taken by Congress should be in the direction of resumption; not a single step backward should for:a moment be countenanced. T ' The most feasible, and, in our judg- | ment,. the most '_fi)ér'i};m"iqus, plan yet: propesed is that of the Chicago 77ibune. ~ That able and conservative journal rightly premises thiat the only opposition now made to the resumption of specle payments which is | worth ponsidei‘ing,» is- that: which | comes from the debtor class of busi- | ness men, who naturally do not want to be compelled to pay 15 cents more on the dollar in satféfixétiop of their debts than they will have to pay if the currency remains abt its present value. = This, “we réadily “concede, woould be a.real hardship, which cught | to be in eqiity provided, if it can be done without injury: to other classes and without delaying the great act of national justice. _Our-able Chieago contemporary. therefore proposes‘-th-@ following: * - e Let (‘ungresé this winter enact; ' 1. That the holders of greenbacks, upon -presentation of ‘them to the Treasury Department, be entitled to receive in exchange therefor 4 or 3.65 per cent. gold bonds, of the denomina‘tion of S5O or $lOO, or"any multiple’of - 8100. L e 2.. That these bonds, having thirty years torun from the date of issue, Dbe-made legal-tenders in the payment | -of all debts and.contracts made before, say the 4th of -July, 1876.." . : 3. That the legal-tender for all contracts made after that date shall be the. coin of the United States, éxcept “when payment otherwise may be expressly stipulated. - it *A moment’s reflection must con--vince the reader that the result of” such Tegislation will be to put all new business on a specie basis, although the existing curreney will continue ‘to be used as at its eoin value,that is, it will no longer sérve. as a measure of values, but will take its true position as by comparison with the markets of the world. The Tribune elucis dates its plam in this -comprehensive language: : g S For all purposes of payment of debts the greenbacks in their new form of® bomrds will be available~ The bonds themselves -will, at present. prices of money, be worth about 80-te 85 cents on the dollar in coin.. The Government.s per cents-are wortli par, and the -3.65 per cents’would range from. 80 to 85 eents. “They will continue to ‘be bought and sold as the currency ‘now is,for the purpose of making paymeits of debts, and will pass from Irand to hand as currency in all transactions ower $5O. For thirty years these bonds or the unfunded currency. ~will continue to serve as a legal-tender for debts already contracted, and that period: will cover all existing liabili}ties of individuals, corporations, and - municipal governments. - No man ormunicipality . awill be ealled upon to pay debts in any other currency than that in which they were contracted. _ This, the Boston Journal says, will -give the’ greenfiacks throughout the Union very much the same position they have always held in California—in free use according to their gold val‘ue.” Thus they wouldlose noné of their purchasing power, while.they would lose most of their liability to fluctua-tions.-:As gold, however, would becfme the measure of value,—all bank deposits being received at their valuein gold, and payable on' demand ingold value,—the banks would have:no difficulty in resuming specie-payments without shock or effort. The functians and need of gold being increased, the metal would flow into and stay in fhe country in quantities to. meet all | necessary demands. 7 ' As before stated, TIE BANNER re- | gards this the most practicable plan. yet proposed. It-is quite probable that a critical examination may develop some ot)j‘ect‘ion's tothe plan; but in the main it maust - certainly commend' itself to the judgment of all who have not become hopelessly wild on the currency question, It is certainly in the right direction, and onght to receive the thoughtful consideration of those who have made finance a study and who are desirous of reach‘ing an_hsnorable, ]ion‘est, and equitable solution of the “great problem.” "' The Tribune’s plan, if adopted—Dbesides completely deéstroying the infiationists’ strongest’ weapons — would produce these jmportant results: 1. The.removal of a much-feared monetary stringency, 2. The reduction of our present exorbitant rates of interest. .| 3. The- stimulation of. legitimate’ trade, in this: that carrency (or these newly created honds) would séek in= vestment instead of being hoarded inexpectation -of its appreciation to a gold basis. U e ‘4. The equalization of the differ: ence between gold and currency, in this: that the debtor is. not obliged to liquidate his obligations in gold, hut may discharge the same in currency of about the same value which it bore at the time such lability was contracted. e ey ' o s

These are very important considerations. We commend these points to our readers in general and to our brethren of the press in-particular, in the hope that'the advocates of a sound cqrren"cy may find a"pli‘mtform of gufticient breadth for all to stand upon. v eE— e : - CoNTRARY. to general expectation,. the wounded South Bend editor, Mr. ‘Charles T. Murray, has been getting along so finely as to warrant the statement that he may now almost to a certainty be pronounced out of danger.

. AN EXCELLENT APPOINTMENT. Governor Ingersoll last Saturday ‘appointed ex-Governor James E. English to be United States Senator of Connecticut, in place of the late O. 8. Ferry. £} o oA : We regard this 4 most excellent appointment—the very best which the Governor could have made. Mr. English, acording to the N. X. Wor‘léi, is a native of New Haven, where h 6 received a common school education, learned the trade of a carpenter and. before he was twenty-one years old became a master builder. Turning his attention to the lumber trade, he acquired a fortune, which has beea greatly enlarged by investments in real estate, in- manufacturing enterprises and in the’ banking business, and he has become:one of the richest men in Connecticut. His wealth has aided in improving and beautifying the charming city in which he was born and bred. He has given largely ‘to the educational, I'eligio’u.s and charitable institutions of New ~Haven. is private charities have been very large. His manufacturing enterprises for years past have employed thousands of well-paid workmen. His pub--lic life began in the General Assembly in 1855, when he sat ,in the Lower House, and in 1856 he was in the State Senate. lle was in Congress for two terms from 1860. There he was Known as a “war Democrat.” He '\jotéd for.the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. He steadily supported every measure that looked ‘to the suppreésio_n of the rebellion and the restoration of the Union. He ga\"c liberally from his private means to the outfit Of régimentss from his native State. Ile was an industrious committ‘eemsz, a faithful Congressman, wlio was always in his seat during sessions ztxitl always attended to ‘his business. [With his “war” views, his strict regard for the Comnstitution and his general conservatism commended him to the regard of ‘men of both parties.’ [ln 1867, in the,contest for'the Governorship, he was successful over Qenerzil J. R. Hawly, and in 1868 and:lB7o gver Marshall Jewell, ‘now Postmaster-General. e was one of the nw'sfi popular Governors since the days of Seymour. * His public record, like his private life, is irreproachable. The unexpired term of the late Senator Ferry extends to March 4, 1879.. Governor Englsh’s ‘appointment is till the meeting of the .General Assembly, next May, when that body will eiect a Senator for the remainder of.th%! unexpired term. \ Connecticut will now be represented in the Senate by two Democrats—both able and Sagacious statesmen. - - W—— " . BECAUSE wefivailed ourself of the -earliest opportunity to transmit to that common lifge]er, C. L. Murray, an emphati¢'refutation of one of his innumerable falsehoods, that branded driveler assumes that we cherish in our bosom a desire to cultivate a cor- ‘ respondence;and that such condescension is indicatite of a consciousnegs ¢t l having been “worstéd” in a pending! controversy. The conglusion is emi- | nently characteristic of its author. No other hardéned and irredeemable sinner would or 3011-1(1 thus refer to a‘correspondence which contained the genplé reminder lthat the par_ty addressed gave currency to a deliberate and self-evident falsehood, and that such conduct revealed-thetrue nature of a loathsome ingrate and a consumntate villain. The .information thus imparted, itis very true, contained nothing of which Murray has notlong since heen eognizant; hence the flippancy of his remarks in last weelk’s Democrat. As regards the cultivation. of epistolary or a?xmy .other relationsvf with Murray, we |have only to say that none others than those now existing are “courted, viz: of maintaining our self_‘;res})‘e‘cg{ and’ ifitegrity SO as to always enjoy the enmity of a foul-mouthed sla;idérgr and a doubledistilled scou’ndrel,.\ : : { | g} iy THE Pnoscmi“'r;;m poricy of the Cincinnati Enquirer in its treatment of Democrats whoThave been and are still averse to, tll<3l adoption of the shinplaster .programme, encounters considerable opposition among the more moderate portion of the Ohio Democracy. The Cleveland Plaindealer, which labored very: zealously for Gov. Allen’s rE—élection, a few ‘days since deliyered -itself upon this subject in these wojds: e “Some of the Democratic pzipérs of the:country are talking about throw‘ing this man, or ph%, out of the democratic organization, because of differenc% of opinion as to what the policy of the party should have been last fall. It strikes us that the result indicates that it woulP be better policy to Aarmonize within our own. ranks all confiicting elements.” let the battle of the future bs fought with the Republicans. Let us antagonize Grant’s Administration and his policy, and not turn our energies to insmalling our own vote, and disemhowling each other. If thel Democrats want ‘suceess in.the Presidential fight, they must quell the dispogition to raise the d—l in their own ranks,” ‘ e| — e WiTH characteristic impudence, charlatan Murray of the Goshen Democrat n’reeumes to define our "status as to Gov. Hendricks’ pandidacy for the Presidency. - The guperlative jmpndence of this performance is rendered all the more offensive by the fact that while ‘this despicab‘{e tool of the corrupt old republisa | ring of this District exerted his vituperative powers to the utmost in denouncing Mr. Hen- | dricks, the editor of THE BANNER has been the constant and steadfast friend, personally and politieally, of that gentleman.

THE SOUTH BEND SHOOTING. | g (From the Inter-Ocean of Nov. 24.) - | ~ The shooting of the editor of the. South Bend (Ind.)) Herald Monday ‘evening, again brings up the question ~of personalities in journalism, which | the Imter-Ocean hasdiscussed sooften. An absolute insanity seems to possess | certain newspaper writers to make their papers just as offensive and just as personal as possible. 'We know | ‘nothing about the Herald at South Bend, save from report, but it seems | to have been the aim of the unfortu- | nate editor to make it preeminent as a personal and sensational sheet. Now there are many men who can do this. with comparative impunity. They know just how far they can safely go. There are others who in attempting to imitate, overstep all bounds, and : the result is something similar to this unfortunate affair at South Bend. And it is a fact, too, let it be explained as best may, that the abusive style of journalism which is tolerated in a large cify is much more offensivein a small place where everybody knows everybody else. In such a’town the | attack partakes almost of a personal altercation, the advantage being all on: the side of the newspaper. It is talk-: ed about, discussed, the natural irritation of the victim being increased by the condolements or indignation of friends until it becomes unendurable. In the present instance the subject which led to the shooting of Murray was one that had no legitimate place in the columns of a newspaper. It was interesting simply bécause it was | scandalous. It was an affair that concerned two or three persons alone, and had no more business in‘the columns of a‘public print than any other mis~understanding between private individuals. We wish we could impress ~upon publishers the impertant fact “that because they control the columns, of a newspaper that is no reason why they should take an unfair advantage of an opponent, and make their person‘al grievances the subject of personal 1 discussion. If a man draws a pistol on an undrmed-person, heis justly regarded as a coward. What difference is there, in principle, when Le uses a ~weapon for assault which his oppo‘nent does not possess 7 Controlling.a ‘newspaper,. a man has a weapon of -assault which no private citizen can ‘successfully contend against. When | such an: engine of power is tuyned against an‘individual in the discus- | sion of private affairs, it is taking an undue advantage which brave men scorn to employ. = It is all right and proper that the press should 'level its thunders at§ any person and all persons whose acts antagonize tlie. public interests.. ‘lt'is also proper that those in public life or those seeking positions of trust should be fairly eriticis-+ ed, and frankly .and even rigorously condemned when'their course seems to merit such condemnation; but to hold a man up to obloquy and shame because he has become personally objectionable to the editor of a newspaper, is unworthy of the calling. of; journalism, and ought to be frowned down by the profession. : These remarks are general, and . are not - designed to apply to the case at South Bend unless such applieation is warranted by the full facts in the. premises. Mr. Murray appearsto have been: a young man of much ability, and hig activity and devotion to his calling might have assured him a high place in the newspaper world had he not unfortunately taken for his standardthe morbid and sensational instead of the legitimate and eunobling ih his work. -He was lured to this, it seems, however, by the abnormal successes of a few newspapers of sensational character which Tie studied and seemingly tried to copy. Y, : * We have looked for some such trag- | edy as this for a goodiwhile. Itis the logical outcome of newspaper villifi- | cation, and we eannot but point to it as a, warning. Pethaps, in this particular instance, the comments used were deserved, and certainly tie attack upon the editor ‘was cowardly and shameful. But this kind of journalism caters and feeds the brutal instinets, and what eouid be expected except that it would at last bear hitter fruit? ‘ ' : It is thought that Mr, Murray may possibly recover, though shot entirely through the. Fungs, and we sincerely hope ‘that this will prove to"be the case. lle was a brave soldier, and during thel war received a wound .which was deemed futal, but his strong constitution -enabled him to survive the shock. IL.et us hope that the event | will call:attention to the folly. of that journalism which regards the -exposure of amatory intrigues and the sensational chronicling, of petty ecrimes as the highest work of the profession,. and as a consequence lead to its abandonment. ; é ey BR~ e ; Burial of Vice President Wilson.
