The most important question that enlist
ed tho attention of tlia present Congress
before its adjournment for the usual holi
day recess was a revival of the currency
agitation. This is beyond doubt one of the
most difficult problems, and with regard
to which there obtains quite a diversity of
opinions. It cannot be denied that too
mach homage at the shrine of the rag
baby in the shape of an inflated issue of
Irredeemable paper is equally as ruinous
as the national legislation for the last few
years which has brought about such a
contraction of values an to produce wide
spread business embarrassments through
out the land, as well as a general depres
sion of trade. The recent agitation grows
out of a resolution introduced by Mr.
ltayard, of Delaware, at the opening of
the session, the object of which is
to strike from United States treasury
notes their legal tender quality. In oppo
sition to this policy, on the 17th .Senator
Morgan, of Alabama, introduced a reso
lution as follows :
That the continuance of the existing
volume or United States treasury notes
with their legal tender preserved and the
maintenance of their equivalency in value
with coin is demanded by the present ne
cessities of trade, commerce and industry,
and that the full restoration of silver coin
age to an equality with gold is necessary
to secure to the people of the United
States a sufficient and permanent supply
of money to maintain our national pros-
perity.”
In commenting on his resolution, the
distinguished Senator staled that the move
ment represented by Mr. ltayard was
urged on by great capitalists whose finan
cial skill is not easily diverted from their
own interests to that of other classes; that
capital results from the labor of the peo
ple and should not be organized against
them as would be done, if at the behests of
moneyed capitalists the legal tender
quality of greenbacks were destroyed. The
people had tried to maintain this currency
through war and calamity, and when they
had been successful it was attempted to
be destroyed by men whose business it is to
manipulate money. As long as greenbacks
were below par the National Banks found
them useful to redeem their circulation and
keep up their reserves. But when they
reached par they ceased to be useful in this
way and became obstructive to tho bank
ers’ interests, anil hence the desire to an
nihilate theiq. The Republican party had
been enacting a tragedy in finance. The
tint net was to change tho character of the
public debt from a lawful money contract
to one payable in coin. The second was
to make it payable in gold coin. The third
was a rapid contraction of the greenback
and an expansion tf the National Bank
currency. While we regret to sec such a
division springing up, \vc nrc inclined to
believe it is the part of wisdom to net on
the old homely adage, nnd let well enough
alone. Business is reviving, resumption
ha* set in, greenbacks are at par with gold,
and everything is moving along smoothly
and well. Like the advice of Horace to
his friend—let us avoid either extreme and
move onward by a middle way', and it will
prove the path of safety.
AN OLD COKTKOVKKKY liKYKHRIi.
Quite a stir in South Carolina politics
has been created recently on account of an
interview with Gen. Gary by a reporter of
the New York Herald. Gen. Gary states
in a very emphatic way that during the
canvass in 187 ft, at Abbeville, Senator
Hampton catne to him and proposed that
they withdraw the Tildcn Electors from
the contest. Tho point to l*r gained by
this courso wa-'tho defection of a large
number of from the support
of Chamberlain, senator Hampton’s oppo
nent for Gubernatorial honors. Gen.
Gary states that he opposed the plan, and
that night a storm}' meeting was held.
General Samuel McGowan stoutly refusing
to submit to such a course.
The same statement was made sometime
ago by an anonymous writer through the
columns of the Augusta Chronicle, and
was dented by Judge Haskell and Gen.
McGowan.
Senator Hampton, since the interview
recently had with the Herald reporter, do
ilies the statements, thus raising a ques
tion of veracity between two of Carolina's
distinguished politicians. While tiic ab
sence of intimate relations between Gen.
Gary and Senator Hampton has been well 1
known it is hard for the public to under
stand why Senator Hampton, after his
election for Governor, threw his influence
to Willard for Chief Justice of the Su
preme Court to the defeat of Gen. Mc-
Gowan, a man of untarnished political
record and possessing the most eminent
qualities as a lawyer. Divisions at this time
among the friends of good government, is
to he seriously regretted. Past differ
ences should be buried, old wounds should
be healed, and the grand work of building
up the noble Palmetto State, so auspici
ously inaugurated, should not be checked
by divisions or strifes. Let not the conduct
of South Carolina's chieftains be a repe
tition of the conduct of the Grecian lead
ers. as given un in classic history, but
rather should they lay aside personal
grievances, and work together harmoni
ously to prevent a return to that state of
oppression from which they have hap
pily emerged.

JEFFERSON DAVIS.
Ill* Tribute* to the t’ouwtltutlon or tlie
ttailteel Alettes.
J. B. Danforth, of Rock Island, having
addressed Jefferson Davis to the effect that
“ Something should be done at once by
Southern leaders of public opinion to coun
teract the efforts of Republicans who are
endeavoring to make a solid North on tho
idea that State rights mean secession;
that the people of the South are still for
secession ; that there is no freedom of
speech or of the press in the soutli, and
that the South has-'been made solid by
means of the shot-gun,” tho feply comes,
and is published iu full, ns follows :
Beauvoir, Harrison County,Miss.,
November 23d, 1879. —J. B. Danforth,
Esq.: My Dear Sir —l was gratified by
the receipt of your letter ns a token of
your remembrance of one when, in the
former and happier days, we were official
ly connected with *ael> other.
I was also gratified by the receipt of a
copy of your paper, the Rock Islander.
It so happened that at the time a local
candidate had called to visit me, and the
conversation turned on the time-honored
doctrine of State rights. Liko many oth
ers in our section, he supposed this to be a
creed which peculiarly belonged tc the
South. I, who have known, and am hap
py to remember, men of every section true
to the theory of a Union voluntarily form
ed hj’ sovereign States, endeavored to ex
plain that it was not a Southern idea, but
a historical fact; that it belonged to no sec
tion, hut sprang from the brains of men
who declared the independence of the col
onies, and formed the compact for a more
perfect union of the States. To prove
m\' position 1 read to him 3'our article
headed, What is Meant by Slate Rights?”
and was pleased to see the effect which it
produced when he knew that it came from
Illinois, and high up the Mississippi
river.
If there is any thing, which, more clearly
than any other, the framers of the Consti
tution did not intend to do, it was to sub
mit the people of the states to the un
bridled will of a majority of the people of
all the States. Sectional majorities have
changed ; they may and probably will
change again ; and the bulwarks which
alone can protect minorities from tire
usurping tendency of a general govern
ment is a strict construction of delegated
powers, and a fair observance of the re
served rights of the States and of the peo
ple.
When the States delegated certain func
tions to the General Government, the pur
pose was declared to be to secure the bles
sings of liberty to themselves and their
posterity.
The confederation, which had been de
clared perpetual, was terminated to form
a more perfect union of those States which
“honkl agree to enter info it. Being with
out precedent in history, hut taught by !
the examples of all ancient rcpublica. of
the rocks and shoals upon which they had
been wrecked, a eomjnut of union %eat
formed which must ever tend to a model of
wisdom "* the part of thoee who framed
it.
The reservation of right*, a* you have
forcibly presented, only marks the limit
between the powers of tho General Gov
ernment and those which the State* and
the people thereof would continue to ex
ercise. This was to secure liberty to their
posterity, not to elevate anew master to
the throne which George 111. had been de
posed.
In tho many years that have passed
since tho formation of tho Constitution,
with the many Chief Magistrates the South
has given to the union, it seems strange
that, in this day, belief in the doctrines on
which the union was founded, and which
was uniformly avowed by the men who il
lustrated its early history, should now be
regarded as hostility to its existence, and
that the creed of State rights should be
held as the synonym of a desire to des
troy the union of the Constitution. Truth
iR said to be eternal. It is well that it
should be, for error so far outstrides its
stately stops that otherwise we might fear
whether truth would overtako it.
Those who havo carefully noted the
usurpation and oppression to which the
South was subjected after Rhc laid down
her arms and faithfully agreed to abide by
the laws of the United States, would have
no need to go further in order to find a
reason why the South was solidified in de
fense of her rights or person and property.
Would the North, under like circum
stances. have been less so? WoNild they
have shown equal patience under wrong?
It is surely little less than a fraud to
state that tho assertion by the South of
her right to protection under the Consti
tution is equivalent to u declaration on her
part of a desire to secede from the union.
Any logical mind would draw from these
facts the reverse conclusion. It may' serve
the purpose of artful politicians to ferment
sectional discord, and thus make a solid
North, which, being the majority section,
can then wield the power and appropriate
as well the political as the financial bene
fits of the General Government. But the
men who desire a fraternal union and a
genernl prosperity must see that it is not
the road by which either can be reached.
In 1860 the secessionists, per ee, to use
the phrase of that day, were few and far
between. They are fewer note and far
ther between.
It is, therefore, utterly untrue that State
rights, as asserted hero mean secession.
And equally untrue is it that there is no
freedom of opinion or of speech or the
press among us. Personal difficulties and
family feuds have been misrepresented as
political combinations to suppress ttie
freedom of elections, while, in point of
fact, our elections have been as peaceably
and orderly as elsewhere. Indeed, there,
has been a studied etfort not to permit any
riotous proceedings which could be used
by emissaries as the means of injuring our
reputation or of invaliding our elections.
Impoverished by a devastating war, we
desire immigration to cultivate our waste
lands and to restore prosperity to our com
munities. Wo have a soil and climate in
viting to the agriculturist and manufac
turer, and would gladly welcome both to a
home among us.
I have no present or prospective connec
tion with the politics of the day. My ob
servations and reflections are those of a
man who has served the country long, and
would be glad, before he goes hence, to
see peace and prosperity throughout its
borders.
For 3-oursclf, my dear sir, accept as
surance of the best wishes and kind re
membrances of your friend,
Jefferson Davis.
