under date o f June 26 :
Know-Nothingism, which disappear

most as siidd<-n as it developed itself, is
being resurrected in this vicinity. The
latest fire ot “ Americanism ” has slum
bered only to become a potent agent in

leaders think the time has come to
again proscribe citizens o f foreign birth.

Know.Nothing order has beeu recently
constituted in this city aud adjacent
municipalities.
In Chelsea the order has assumed

the machinery o f the organization lias

The leaders o f this dangerous move
ment “ contemplate with feelings o f in

certain a onopoly o f the offices o f tru-t
and emolument by men o f birth,” and
think the o'd war-cry, “ put none but
Americans on guard,” should become
the uppermost thought o f every native

the founder o f this demagogical society
is not in the flesh to direct its move

A great public question was élucida

says the Louisville Courier, during the

details o f a transaction then alluded to,
are stated below
and

accuracy,
itself illustrated
between
the Govern
ment and a large class o f its creditors:
A g'ass manufacturer from Pittsburg
was a few days since in the counting
room o f a Lou sviile house with which
he has doue a large business for twenty
yours past. In a conversation with his
old hiend, the Louisville merchant, he
rcmaiked that he was not pleased with
the nomination o f Grant, and would not
support him unless Pendleton should
be the opposing candidate.
“ In that case,” I shall v-de for G rant,
because I contributed to the support o f
the Government in the hour o f its dis
tress, and Mr. Pendleton would compel
me to accept greenbacks for the bonds
which I hold. That would be répudia
tion.”
*• I remember that investment of
yours,” said the Lou's ville merchant.
- Y ou sold SlU.OOU in gold at 282 in
1864, and bought gold bearing United
States bonds for which you paid 94 iu
greenbacks.”
“ E xictly so,” said the Fittsburg
gentleman.
“ Then,” said his friend, “ you e x
changed your 8,10,000 in gold for $28,-
200 in greenbacks, and these you ex
changed for $80.000 in United States
houds. Ou these bon is the Government
h is annually paid you an interest of $1,-
8J0 iu gold which is 18 per cent, per
annum ou thesuiuy.m invested in G ov
ernment securities. Your interest in
four years has returned into your
pockets 7,200 o f your 10,003 gold dol
lars, and you claim that the Govern
ment owes you $80,000 more iu gold !
I f in four years you receive $87.200,
in return for $10.000, your patriotism
will be well rewarded indeed.”
*• I am not responsible fur the bad
management of the government,” said
the Pittsburg gentleman. “ i was finan
ciering for nivselt and not for the G ov
ernment, and 1 only ask it to keep its
engagements as l keep mine.”
“ But while you were financiering
lor yourself,” said his friend, *• )uu
should have observed tin striking tael
that while the bonds promised gold for
the interest they did not specify the
money in which the principal was to he
paid. Moreover the greenbacks with
which you bought tho^e bouds bore
this legend :
“ T ait note is a legal tender fo r all
debt*, public and private except duties
on imports, and the interest of the pub
tic debt.'*
“ E veryon e o f those notes w h ch
has passed through your hands, before
you bought the bonds, aud since, has
been a notice served oil you by the G ov
ernment that the principal o f your
bonds is payable in greenbacks. A c
cordingly, you f-ce the Government
paying its other debts in greenbacks.
8o it paid the soldier for enduring toils,
and braving dangcis. Even the pitiful
pension o f the disabled private is paid
in greenbacks; and the widow is paid
in greenbacks lor the lost labor of the
husband who lies mouldering in a sol-
dicr’s trrave. What hive you dune
that the Government shall make uu
exception in your favor ?”
“ 1 hold its bonds,” replied the gla-s
manufacturer, “ and though the bouds
may fail to specify unyiliiug of the sort,
yet there is an implied obligation,
whenever a government issues such
bouds, that the principal shall be paid
iu g«»ld.”
“ But,” rejoined the m erchant,“ that
implied obligation is directly negatived
by the inscription on the greenbacks,
and negatived also by the wurdiug o f
the bouds, which carefully specifies
gold for the interest aud carefully omits
any spec ficatioti us to how the princi
pal is to be piiu ; thus leaving that
point optional with the Government —
Moreover, the greenbacks themselves
are notes, bonds, * promises to pay,’
which tho Government is as much
obliged to pay iu coin us any other de
.«criptiun o f bonds whatever. I f the
Government substitutes its greenback
notes for its bonds in your possession,
you hold against it as valid an obligation
us you h-Id before, and have no right
whatever to cry * repudiation.”
“ The Goveru.-uctfit will be able to re
deem the greenbacks iu coin us soon as
it will be able to pay your bonds iu
coiu.
Its
necessities
compel
it
to give its creditors promises
instead o f pay. It is for you to show
why it should give you interest bearing
note« and compel its other creditors to
accept notes which draw no interest—-
It is for you to show why the people
shall be taxed to pay interest on what
the Government owes you, while they
get no interest on tho notes whicli they
hold against the Government.
In
what respect is your claim more just or
sacred than theirs?
“ Now. suppose the Government
takes your bonds at their face and pays
you $30,000 iu greenbacks, You cun
exchange that sum for $21,400 in gold.
Y*»u will then receive more than double
the sum you invested four years ago,
and upon whioh the Government has
paid you usury at the rate o f 18 per
cent, per annum ! My friend, you
have no good reason for calling this * re
pudiation/ When so liberal a settle
ment is proposed you have no right to
demand that $9,UU0 more gold than is
* nominated in the bond’ shall be wrung
from the labor o f the country for your
private emolument. A s a just business
man you would not set up such a claim
against a private individual and you
could not legally collect it. T h e obli
gatiou ol your bonds as you construe it
against the public would convert th-rn
and the Government itself into instru
ments o f extortion aud inordinate op.
p re.-8 ion.
“ This implied obligation with which
you propose to piece out the a.-tual ob
ligation of the Government, applies
with far more force and justice to the
claims o f the soldiers who rendered
persoiiul service aud devoted their lives
to the public defence. But you aud
the party with which you act do not
call it repudiation to pay them in green*
backs for the blood they shed and the
limbs they lost. You prefer the least
meritorious class o f the public creditors;
and for those who have already grown
rich oft o f the necessities o f the Govern
ment you demand ail exorbitant, addi
tional gold premium. The s-ant wages
and inwards o f the poor, who have
t<>iled for the Government, and who
have bled and suffered ior it, you would
pay iu greenbacks.”
A s lie listened to this argument in
favor of what is termed “ repudiation,”
the Pittsburg gentleman bethought him
that tor twenty years he had known the
good old merchant to be a man who
would part with his last cent and coiu
his body to pay his bond, lie mused a
moment with the air o f a man who
hears something which lie trust ponder
more at leisure, aud then changed the
conversation.
