The currency question Is equally impor
tant with the others. In many respects It
la more ao. Independent of tho two polit
ical parties known as Republican and
Democratic, there are two distinct parties
on this single Issue—the ContractionIsts
and the Inflationists. Neither Republicans
nor Democrats arc united on this point.
The Inflationist party is composed alike of
Republicans and Democrtas; and so of tho
contractlonlsts or spcelu basis party. In
the West and South, there Is a scarcity of
money; people of these sections complain
that whilst they pay taxes out of scanty
means, the bondholders of the East pay no
tax. but receive their Interest In gold upon
capital that Is wholly Inert and which
mills nothing to commerce and trade. A
majority of the \\ estern members In tbc
House, are understood to favor expansion
and the payment of the bond Interest In
greenbacks; whilst others, having no well
dell lied opinions of their own, nro careful
enough of their places not to disregard a
known or supposed wish of their constlu-
enry.
The solution to these questions will test
the statesmanship of that honorable body,
and reveal Its merit. If It has any. .The
people expect them to mcct'tho issues fair
ly, und to |»iss ii|k>Ti them promptly. There
Is no room for sldo Issues; no time for Ir

Up to noon no steps w ere taken In the
Dul ls matter, and Mr. Davis Is not yet In
court. About thirty ladles were present
as spectators.
I.uter.—Mr. Evurts, for the Government,
said the Intention of tbc Government was to
trv the liavls case someday thls.term. One
consideration In delaying tho day was the
time when Chase would nttenil here, and
the Government proposed to name a day
alter the adjournment of thu Supreme
Court for this trial, when Chase could sit
with Underwood. Evarts suggested the
fourth Wednesday lit March. O'Connor
said t .O personal convenience of Sir. Da
lis would Imvo been promoted If that had
taken place in May last, and It would lie
very convenient now, but Ids counsel
would agree to the proposition of Evarts.
ITc thought rtiu presence of Chase would
h" b-i.i'ih i ih not alone to tlm interest of
tlm licensed, lint to all interests. Judge
Underwood said the arrangement proposed
bv i !.*• Government w*as agreeable to the
emit, mid particularly because the court
..inn'-iii desired that Judge Chase should
-It ii|sm the ease. It was due to the dc-
I'. n.laiii that two Judges should sit In the
. use. in order that an appeal might be
ink,-ii on disputed questions, and the case
l urried up by tlm defendant to a higher
court.
The Judge agreed to fix the 20th of
Mareli for the trial, nml, on tho application
of Mr. O'Connor, to extend Mr. Davis’ ball
bond until that time, and ftirtlier agreed
that If Judge Chase could not preside then,
to extend the leave of absence till the term
following. Thoordcrofextension ofleavo
of absence for Mr. Davis, and fixing the
32d of March for the trial, waa entered by
order of tho Judge, and Mr. Davis' trial
ended for thla term. Mr. Davla did not
apiiear In Court. Three witnesses who
eiimc Into Court, cx-Sccretary Seldon, cx-
Gov. Letcher and Gen. Wickham, wore re
cognised to appear at the next term.
Staldon. Letcher, and several other wit
nesses for tho government were before the
grand jury to-day, which shows that Davis
wilt 1m tried on a new indictment at the
term III March.
Davis will remain here several days. Ho
will not spend the winter In Canada. Gen.
Lee goes on Thursday to Petersburg to
