ITHURSDAY, NOVEMBER

22,1877.

CONG RESS.

Rebate In the House Yesterday Afternoon

On Ewing'a Bill Repealing the Resumption Act.

An Able Speech by Garfield, of Ohio.

A Comparison Between the Greenback* and the Gray Backs.

An Evening Session.

BOUSE.

Washington Nov., 16.

Garfield spole of the debate as one that bad lusted in the Anglo Saxon world for more thMn two centuries. Hardly any

Epen

hase of it was new hardly had there any proposition made on the other aide that had not been made Beventy-five ears aijo in England, and alniORt one undred year* ago in the United^ States, singularly did history repeat inself on estions of this sort. lie appealed from ebb and flow of the public opinion of to-day, to the general judgment of mankind on the question of currency. He referred to 1800 as' a year of universal and general prosperity in the United States, and said that ii anything was then settled in public opinion it was that the only safe, trustworthy standard of viltie was coin of ascertained weight and fineness, or a paper currency convertible into coin at the will of the holder That was, then, and had been for a long time, the unanimous opinion of the American people. There had been dreamers who loosed upon paper money as the fetich of their idolatry, Out these dreamers were then so few in number that they made no tipple on the current ot public thought, and formed DO part of the public opinion. That opinion was then the aggregate^ result of opinions of the foremost Amotican* who ever thought or wrote on that subject. No man ever sat in the presidential chair Mid left on record any word on the subject which spoke of safety in finance except in coin or paper convertible into coin. No man had ever sat in the chair of secretary of the treasury, and had spoken at all on the subject who had not left on record an opinion equally strong, from Hamilton, down to the father of his distinguished colleague, [Ewine-], and down to the present day. It teemed to him that the general judgment of all who deserved to be called the leaders of American thought, ought to be considered worthy of something in nn American houaeof repiesentativea, on the discussion of a great topic like this. What had happened to produce the change from the general level of public opinion in 1861? Every man knew the history of the war the overmastering necessities of that war had led the men of 1861 to depart from the doctrine of the fathers, but they had not departed from it as a ma ter of sentiment, but as a matter of overwhelming necessity. All who voted for the gr«senftack law in the house and senate, had done so under protest, and wiih the declaration that at the earliest possible moment the country should be brought back to the old, safe, established doctrine of the fathers. Like companion sof Ulysses, they had lashed themselves to the mast of public credit, wben they emBarked on the atormy and hazardous eea of paper money, HO that they might not be beguiled by the siren songs which might be Bung to them when they were on the wild waves. But times were changed new men were on deck only twelve years had passed since the house, with only six dissenting votes resolved to stand again by the old ways, to bring the country to sound money and now what Was found? a group of school men aid doctriareaiiB, the latter unknown twelve years ago, were found in favor of what they called absolute money, declaring that a piece of paper, stamped one dollar, wa* a dollar that gold and silver were part of the barbarism of the past, which ought forever to be abandoned that resumption should never take place, and that the eras of prosperity were paper eras.

Coming back to the prosperous era of 1860, he asserted that, although banking was free, there was but 207 million dollars of paper money in circulation, and about 200 millions in coin. How much was in circulation to-day? 727 millions iil greenbacks, fractional currency and fractional silver, and about nine millions oicopper—in all, 736 million, exclusive of the gold circulating on the Pacific coast. He put it to the judgment of the houee whether, if, in I860, under free tanking, with no restrictions, 407 millions was the limit of possible currency ifl circulation, almost twice that amount waa needed, and hardly enough, in 1877. He put himself in the aame category in which the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Kelley) had placed the late secretary of tfie treasury, Hugh McCulloch. He (Itelley) had read, yesterday, three lines Roman article written by that gentleman, and declared that the statement made in three lines •bowed either unexampled ignorance or unexampled mendacity. What was that statement? It was that every great fihaneial crisis in this country had been preceded by enormous enlargement of the jjaper circulatioi. lie (Garfield) affirmed that that was true, and he challenged anyone to prove the oontrary. It had been assumed that specie payments would intore the debtor class and would therefore fielp the rich. He denied that proposition ilk toto. He affirmed that a vast majority of the creditors of the country were

Sbtors

or men, and that a vast majority of the belonged to the rich classes. In the first place, the poor man does not Borrow money and in the second place, i{ was the laboring man who placed his surplus money in the saving banks, and II was the rich man who borrowed from the saving banks. Thus did the poor hnJ to the rich. In the name of the ^boring man, therefore, he denounced the attempt to repeal the resumption law. If it were repealed, the country would be plunged into the necessity of Bailing over the same tempestous ocean, with* uncer

tain result if it were repealed, and no pubstit'ite made for it, the day would not be far distant when congress would look back from the depths of horrors, of the evils which would surround the country, t- the present time, and would earnestly rrgret the day when the resumption act was repealed. He did not undervalue greenbacks, but when the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Kelley) talked about the greenback putting down the rebellion, if he (Garfield) had been on the other side of the house, he would have said: "Ob. no, judge we had a more liberal supply of thai kind of money than you had it was a better money thanyouw,on your own principle, for it was to be redeemed six years after the independence of the confederate Btates, and yet that did not put you down." [Laughter.] He did not think that the gentlemen who knew the financial policy of the confederacy would join with the gentleman from Pennsylvania in his mIoism 0: the greenback. The struggle now pending in the house was, on the one hand, to make the greenback better, and on the other, to make it woree. In the name of ev«ry man who wanted to hold his own when he earned it, he (Garfield) demanded that congress should not make the earned wage* of the poor man to shrivel and shrink away, but that the greenback should be made better until the plough holders' money Bhould be as good as the bond holders money. This was the era of pacification the states and the citizens were «?qual before the law let conres3 make money equal beore the law, BO that the motto of the country might be "equal states, equal men, equal dollars and complete pacification would be achieved. The elements were all now in avor ot resumption. The report of the secretary of the treasury, yesterday, showed that he had sixty-six millions of coin unpledged for any other purpose, waiting as a reserve for the day 01 resumption, and that he was adding to that stock at the rate of five millions a month. The balance of trade was in favor of this country to the extent of nearly $200,000,000 a year exchange was flowing this wiy, harvests had been bounteous, the nation was awakening to bew enterprises, busines* was everywhere reviving, there was no danger, except from the congress of the United States there was the storm center, there the point of peril if that point could be passed, aud the act now threatened averted, the country would be safe, and lesumption completed. He referred to the fact that two years ago his colleague (Ewing), in discussion with General Woodford, had predicted that the silver currency then proposed to be issued would be immediately absorbed and withdrawn from circulation. So his colleague thought, now, that gold coin would be absorbed and withdrawn from circulation.

Ewing explained thatwhtn he male that statement the country was not aware of the rascally act demonetizing silver, and silver then was at a high premium over the greenback.

Garfield suggested that the trouble about the explanation was that the silver coin was of 12 per cent, less value than the old silver, so that there never was the slightest danger of its being bought up for silver. The gentleman

E*ing) thought that there was some danger about gold, that if an eastern farmer, moving to the west, sold his farm for $10,000, he was likely to load himsfilt with 40 pounds weight of gold, or 640 pounds weight of silver. Would he not rather take his pay in ten one thousand dollar bills and carry it wept in that convenient form? In conclusion, he said: "The moment your greenback is equal to gold it is better than gold for it is more convenient, and as long as the people desire it to be in circulation, so long it will be, until the business of the country demands its removal. If any of the amendments propose to make the resumption act more safe, more certain, more careful of the interests of the ceuntry, I shall cheerfully join in voting for it but any thing that takes back the promise any thing that gives up what we have gained any thing that Bets us afloat again on the wild waves from which we have nearly escaped, I will oppose, if it should cost me all the political future that can be offered to an American. [General applause on the Republican side of the chamber.]

Buckner advocated the passage of the bill for the repeal of the resumption pet In conclusion, he said that whatever others might do, or whatever might be the action of other departments of the government, the duty of the house, as the immediate representatives of the people, was plain. No one should be deluded into support of any of the amendments offered they should be all voted dowa. That would ensure the passage of the bill. It has been said that this legislation threatens the peace of the country. The legislation already existing, and which this bill proposes to repeal, had bedewed the streets of American cities with the blood of the people, and it was his solemn conviction that if it were persisted in, the whole social fabric of the oiintry would be stricken to its foundation.

At the close of Buckner's speech the question of an evening session came up, and several propositions were suggested for prolongation of the time allowed for debate. In the course of the discussion the speaker stated that the operation of -esolution adopted on the subject was at the close of the debate, the previous question would be considered as seconded, that then, if the house refused to order the main question, it would throw the bill back and strip it of all past agreements. The whole matter, however, was in the control of the majority of the house.

The house then took recess till 7:30, the evening session to be exclusively for debate on the bill.

EVENING

snnoff.

Muldrow thought the resumption bill bhould be repealed. He warned legislators to listen to the voice of the people, which called the the repeal of that act, before the people rose in their manhood and uttered that cry which had been heard in other lands—the cry of liberty—and sweep from power forever the projectors of the wrong.

Wright favored repealing the bill. It was more a question of bread than currency. Should it be said that Wall street was to establish a public rple with regard to the currency, and agriculture and manufacturing pursuits were to count for naught? By the living God, Wall street should not be his leader he would stand on the side of the misses.

Crittenden and Herbert advocated the repeal of the resumption act. Cannon was in favor of resumption in 1879, provided thej double standard system were adopted. He sent to the clerk's desk and jpd £read a paragraph from

THE TERRE HATTTE WEEKLY GAZETTE

The New York Herald, which referred to western epreventatives as a fanatical and lunatic set of silver representatives, He was sorry that a portion of the metropolitan press was controlled by Wall street. He had been told that if he re1 ferred to the matter in the house, The Herald, being mighty paper, woutll unmask him but he was not afraid of it. God almighty bad made bim, and The New York Herald conld not unmake him. [Laughter

Hewitt, of New York, said be had preprepared a speech upon the bill before the bouse, but the gentleman from Ohio (Garfield) had traversed almost the same ground which he (Hewitt) had intended to take. In conclnsion, he said: "It wa plant ourselves on the rock of honor I, see before the country Buch a future as has never been recorded in the history of man. The danger which I see is, that in hope of temporary relief, we may take an aro dyne, which may, in theend, be too much for us, and that we may perish instead of achieving the health which we all desire. I Btand appalled at the prospect which I see before me, if these two bills, the silver bill and the anti-resumption bill should become laws.Our sufferings are nothing to *,- what will come after the passage of these acts. Every dollar of movable capital will quit the country the debtors who expect that it will raise the price of their property, will find that there will be nothing to buy it with, and that values will fall and creditors will take the rest cf their fund* to go to Bome clime where their property will be respected. I am clear and certain that but one result can follow from these measures, and that that result wfll be ruin ruin in resources ruin in character, and ultimately ruin in constitutional freedom.

Other speeches were made by Keifer, Dunnel, Sampson and Loring, agaiqst repeal, and the house adjourned. s» 'J* •', »f.

GERMAN TRADE.

ARTICKBS THAT MAY BE EXPORTED TO GERMANY WITH PROFIT. 5 The Consul-General of United States at Berlin, in continuation of his reports on the extension ot our trade in Germany, has forwarded to the Department of State a communication concerning articles of American manufacture in that market. These articles may be clashed under three headings, viz: Those which find ready sale, those which can be made salable by proper efforts, and those which are unsalable. 1. Salable Articles—Fine castings bronaed or maroon colored breast-drills and wrenches circular saws, although dearer than the German butchers'saws: try-squarls, trowels, plumbs and levels augers, and auger-bits, although dearer than the German mouse and rat-traps door-bolts cast-iron stable fittings shovels hickory handles chisel, file and auger handles oilstones and grindstones padlocks box scrapers can openers gas plyers mincinsf knives shoe brushes leather, boots and shoes pressed glassware. The following articles are steadily gaining on the market: hickory wheels, spokes and wheel rims,knawn as hent work wind mills ventilators steam pumps gas fittings toys, for their ingenui'y portable steam engines, two to ten horse power wood working machinery cheap metal clocks house keeping and kitchen utensils, especially novelties. 2. Articles that can be made salable: Wooden planes, '»y altering the shapes wrought iron hinges, bv lowering the price scythes, by conforming to the required shape machines for making tacks and nails cheap furniture especially chamber sets, by proper efforts.

Unsalable articles: Hand-saws, owing to their shape back and panelsaws too high priced to compete with the French, who control the market draw-knives,chisels, gouges and plane irons, too high to compe with the English, who control the market coopers' tools, not the required shapes c:isl-iron hinges, harness, boiler-rivets and horse-brusht-s, too dear curry-combs, to light 6ewing machines. 1 «.

HOUSEHOLD FABLES. ^From the Burlington Ilawkcye. 'How many thumbs?'smilingly asks the sitting room carpet, looking up at its colj league, the battered stove pipe. With a wink at its disjointed elbow, the stove pipe, riveting its gaze on its friend, rer plies: Only three, but I've raked enough skin off the other knuckles to «nake a pair ot boots.' Cluckingly responds the carpet: 'Not so well as you did last year. I got a couple of finger nails, two whole trousers' knees, started a good crop of hang nails on every finger in the house, and think I have a divorce suit pending." "That's a pretty good spread," replies the pipe, and then turning to an exhausted tack hammer that was resting tself on the win-dow-sill, asked, "How is your score

Oh, don't ask me," gasped the tack hammer. I've been bu:«ier than the master's gavel on a chapter night. I haven't missed but one knuckle since I started in, and then I caught the ball of a thumb plumb center, and raised a blood blister as big as a walnut And then the graceless trio smiled in silent chorus, and an old rheumatic mop that was standing on the porch listening to the conversation through the key-hole, pumped itself against the door in an ecstacy of delight and foil fainting across the wheelbarrow with one leg that was waiting on the walk for somebody to come,, .along and fall over it.

Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup for the Cure of Consumption, Coughs and Colds.

The {rreat virtue ot this medicine is that it ripens the matter and throws it out of the system, purifies the blood, and thus effects a cere. Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic for the cure of
