Deau Sin—1 had the pleasure of
reading your letter to Col. Alston on the
subject j)f the linancea, published in the
Atlanta J/crnW of this date :
While agreeing with you in the gen
eral line of your argument and most of
your conclusions, I regret to perceive
in the earncstiness and pathos of your
appeal to the Southern people evidenco
of some distrust of their fidelity to
principle on this subject. From an
other this would be unnoticed, at least
by mo, but coming from our true and
long-tried friend, I beg leave to meet
*2 00 it by an earnest protest. I know no
sufficient reason to think that the
Southern people have abandoned or
modified their old-time opinions that
good money is better than tad money,
honesty better than dishonesty. On
the contrary, I do think a majority of

dy return to a sound currency convert
able into gold.
Newspaper articles and indiscreet
declarations hurriedly thrown off
during the recent canvass in Ohio
might seem to lead to a different con
clusion, but it is to be remembered
that the financial blunder of the Ohio
politician could not oughtweigh the
strong desire of the South to be freed
from the exasperating incubus of the
present Federal administration. They
lent their sympathies to the oppo
sition there without scanning closely or
condemming promptly their declar
ation of principles.
There lias recently been no exhaus
tive discussion of the financial issue in
this section by the press or other wise
but nowhere are political questions bet
ter understood, or the establishe d
maxims of political economy more gen
erally conceded.
First—It is admitted, on all hands,
that the duty and power of the Federal
Government in relation to the currency
are restricted to the coining of money,
to the stamping upon pieces of goid and
silver a sign by which the world may
know the weight and fineness of the
piece of metal. It is not the duty of the
Government, nor has it any constitu
tional power, to furnish a circulating
medium other than this to commerce or
to the people. Issues of paper to serve
the purposes of money are absolutely
without constitutional authority, and
like all other usurpations, dangerous to
the commonwealth.
Second—With our past and present
experience it does not require argument
to prove that the printing of any words
jn paper does not make that paper
money, nor create any increase of
values. A promise to pay by the Gov
ernment or an individual is worth ex
actly what the chances of payment in
gold are worth, and when no means of
payment are provided or time specified,
depreciation follows, and finally all
value disappears with the hope of pay
ment.
Third—The attempt to protect the
circulation of irredeemable promises
bv making them a legal tender in pay
ment of debts is simply iniquitous. In
the discharge of its duty to protect the
property of the citizen the Government
assumes to collect, through the instru
mentality of its courts, the dues of a
creditor; it may not evade this duty
without disgrace and grievous wrong.
When it compels the creditor by a legal
tender law to accept for his $1000 in
gold, to which he is entitled, 1000 oak
leaves or bite of paper, it abdicates its
functions and perpotrates a tyranny as
illegal as ruinous and as widespread as
would be the arbitrary imprisonment
of the citizen without duo process of
law.
Fourth—If all history did not teach
the lesson, our own experience at the
South, within the recollection of living
men, would admonish us of the folly
and final ruin of attempting to add to
the wealth of the nation or to increase
the value of the currency by debasing
the coin, multiplying the number of
printed irredeemable promises, or evad
ing in any way the prompt and faithful
payment of honest debts. With the
inauguration of any of these dishonest
schemes there comes a brief period of
wild speculation, foolish. extravagance
and general demoralization, to be fol
lowed quickly and invariably by a long
night of bankruptcy, desolation and
despair.
Fifth—That the Federal Government
is one of limited and specific powers, that
all encroachments of it upon the rights
reserved to the people should be watched
with zealous care, are not with Southern
men unmeaning phrases. Denying to it
the exercise of no delegated powers, they
look with anxious solicitude upon the ex
ercise of others sanctioned by usage or
openly usurped, tending to increase the
central influence, and corruption of the
Federal Administration. In tho whole
range of possible legislation there is not
ono subject so sweeping in its character,
so dangerous in its probable results, or
so fruitful of corruption in every depart
ment of corruption in every department
of the Government as tho absolute con
trol of the currency of the country.
With these fundamental principles
generally admitted and with these exne-
", : . 1:1 1- »i.„ 1.
low the lead of the champions of these
schemes—Gen, Butler, Wendell Phillips
and Judge Kelley. When the question
is fairly presented there cau be little
doubt that they will be found sustaining
the traditional and time-honored princi-
" the Democratic party. The de
think I may say, is universal to re
turn to specie payments as early as prac
ticable, to repeal the legal tendor law
(which is no law,) and let the Govern
ment interfere no more forever with the
currency, except to coin money, and col
lect and disburse its revenues.
Upon two other points there seems to
be some apprehensiou and some misun
derstanding: First. What is resumption
of specie payment? Second. When can
it be accomplished ?
First—During the war the United
States Government found itself without
money and without credit. In this ne
cessity it issued $400,000,000 of due bills
known as greenbacks, which were given
in exchange for material of war or per
sonal service. To give them currency
the Government solemnly promised that
this issue should never be increased, and
compelled people to take them by making
them a legal tender. The whole amount
became a forced loan levied upon the
country and so remains to this day. The
promise to pay which each bill has upon
its face has been n falsehood and a snare
for thirteen year. Not one dollar of
S rincipal or interest has been paid to this
ay. Resumption means that the Govern
ment shall honestly meet Its obligation
and pay now, in the time of its prosper
ity, what it took by force in the hour of
its necessity. It does not follow that people
will be distressed or commerce derauged
by this act of justice and common hon
esty. The means ought long since to
have been provided by retrenchment and
proper economy, and can soon be by these
means or by loan, and every bill redeem
ed without diminishing by one dollar the
volume of the currency. When the Gov
ernment shall pay its debts in coin, banks
andjpeople can do so without inconven
ience or loss.
Second—When can the Government
resume ? Congress, at its last session,
fixed the 1st of January, 1879. It may
or may not be prepared to d* so. Sev
enteen years from the creation of a debt
would seem to be long enough for the
debtor to begin to pay principal or in
terest. No debt was over paid until the
determination to do so had been formed,
and some time for payment beforehand
resolved upon; but if the condition of
the country in 1877 or 1878 be such as
to make impossible the fulfilment of
this virtuous promise, it will be time
enough then to change the law and ask
for further indulgence. Let not the
Democratic party, now to assume the
control of the destinies of the country,
take a step backward until the necessity
for it is demonstrated.
I have already trespassed too long
upon your indulgence, but cannot for
bear to refer to one other aspect of this
question. Judge Kelley, in his speech
in this city a bhorttime since, expressly
disclaimed any intention to repudiate
the obligations of the Government. The
vastly increased amount of greenbacks
which he seeks to have issued he pro
poses never to redeem, but leave them
as an irredeemable, non-exportable cur
rency forever; but the bonds, he left his
hearers to infer, were in some mysteri
ous way ultimately to be paid. It was
easy to see, however, that the adoption
of his wild schemes led directly and
necessarily to the non-payment of the
entire public debt. It was a tempting
appeal to the prejudices of a Southern
audience; it was a satanic solicitation
by a Northern man to throw off the ob
ligation to pay for the manacles which
bound them ; it was an assault upon
their honor and good faith ; but I am
proud to be assured that it was without
effect. When the Southern people came
back into the Union they accepted the
Government cumonerc with the validity
and sanctity of the public debt ad
mitted. They have no thought or pur
pose of their own motion, or at the in
stigation of dishonest schemers else
where, of proving recreant to their
plighted honor. Aside from the mo
mentous consequences of such an act
of bad faith to the credit, morals and
prosperity of the whole country, the
South cannot belie her history and di»-
grace her ancestry. Mr. Kelley may
advocate, directly or indirectly, national
rascality if he chooses. Southern men
cannot speak or think of it. NMmo
oblige. For your championship oftheir
cause in Congress, for the trust you
placed in their honor, for vour warm
and generous solicitude for their wel
fare, you have the gratitude of the en
tire South. Very respectfully,
II. V. M. Miller.
J offer f on Davis Howell.
Captain Jefferson Davis Howell, late
master of the Bteamship Pacific, lost on
& trip from Oregon to San Francisco,
was the youngest brother of Mrs. Jeffer
son Davis. He entered as a fourth-class
midshipman in the Confederate Navy,
in 1868, and was immediately after
sent to the school-ship Patrick Henry,
then stationed in the James River, near
Richmond. He passed his first regular
examination in the following Decem
ber standing high in his class, anl was
promoted to tho third-class of midship
man, and with other members imme
diately ordered to service.
His first active service was at Charles
ton, where he was very efficient. He
participated in several of the expedi
tions under Col. John Taylor Wood,
among them the one that captured two
Fedreal gunboats on the Rappahan
nock river, without losing a man. He
also accompanlied the expedition that
captured the United States steamer Un
derwriter in the North Carolina waters,
when she was burned under the guns
of the Federal forces. He was with
Col. Wood in tho Chicamauga, when
she, with another steamer, run out from
Wilmington in 1864 and played such
havoc with the United States shipping.
He was alBO, if we remember rightly,
with Col. Wood in his expedition to
Canada, made with a view to the re
lease of Confederate prisoners on John
son’s Island.
At the close of the war young Howell
is said to have shipped before the mast
and made several voyages in the capa
city of a common sailor. A year or
twe later he was on a visit to his rela
tives and friends in New Orleans,
but remained there only a short
time.
When young Howell entered the na
val service, in 1863, he was about six
teen years old and a perfect model of a
man; he then stood full six feet in his
stockings, was amaible to a fault, al
ways ready for any duty that he might
be called on to perform, and was a great
.favorite with both officers and men.
When last seen by one of the attaches
of the News office, who was associated
with him in the Coniederate navy, he
stood six feet six inches in his boots,
and did not then appear to have done
growing. He was one of the first men
to be selected for special service, and
his performance always justified the
confidence of his superior officers.
Finding his way to the Pacific slope
a few years ago, he found employment
in the service of one of the large steam
ship lines of San Francisco. He rose
rapidly to command, and met his fate,
as a brave man should, in the discharge
of his duty, having been washed from
n raft which he had improvised after
the foundering of his ship, and upon
which he was endeavoring to save the
lives of the passengers who had been
placed in his charge. Peace to his
manes.—Galveston Neivs.
Carl Schurz was traveling in a sleep'
ing car recently, and by drawing up his
limbs until his knees stuck out at right
angles with his body, managed to ac
commodate him to the proportions of
his berth. Ho must have grown rest
less and nervous toward morning, for
about 3 o’clock a Western man in an
adjoining berth leaned over and re
marked: “See here, pard, I don’t blind
four or five yards of your legs twisted
over me, it you only wouldn’t work

A Costly Fainting.
Now York Evening Post ]
A private letter from Paris brings
the information that the latest and
greatest worlt of the famous painter
Meissonicr has been purchased for Mr.
A. T. Stewart, of this city, for the prince
ly sum of 300,000 francs ($60,000 in
ffold.)
This already celebrated painting is
the largest work of the artist, being a
canvass about five feet long, and con
taining many figures. It represents a
regiment of French cuisrassiers going
into battle, and as they whirl past their
chief, Napoleon I—who is seen upon a
hillock in the middle ground cf the
composition—they salute him with the
most extravagant demonstrations. This
troop of horsemen nearly covers the en
tire foreground, the nearest ones being
about eighteen inches high. The fine
drawing, energetic and varied expres
sions, the rich effective color, and the
wondefully spirited action of his group,
are described ob marvelous, and they
contrast forcibly with the quiet and
calm dignity of the first Napoleon.
The picture, after years of labor and
many changes, was finally finished in
September, and it has been acknowl
edged to be the masterpiece of one of
the greatest artists of modern times. If
he is not the greatest artist he has cer
tainly received the largest price for a
painting ever paid to an artist of any
age. • ■
Senator Bayard, in writing his excel
lent letter on the currency to the Atlan
ta Herald has sot a good example be
fore the advocates of sound financial
principles. The true doctrine should
be preached where heresy has taken its
firmest root. The fallaces of inflation
have found most favor in Western and
Southern States. It is well to teach
lessons in hard money in the large ci
ties of the Atlantic seabord, but is bet
ter to teach them in Ohio and Georgia.
Senator Bayard’s letter will serve a
double purpose. Itwillconfirm Northern
conservative people in their faith and it
will make converts among the South
ern people to truth and justice—or at
least it ought to do so. He tells the
people of the South, and, indeed, peo
ple every where, what they want. It is
not more irredeemable paper. That
would be no remedy. What they re
quire is capital. That which is need
ful for the procurement of capital is
confidence, and ^confidence does not
eomo of suggestions of repudiation an<‘
the advocacy of self-evident falsa
hoods in finanoe.—Philadelphia ledger.
