Tint Washington/’ J says those who complain that our silver coin does not ciivulatu should tell us why the gold coin stays in the vaults. There are threo dollais in gold f..r ev« ry dollar in silver In the United States, yet the lattei' lias larger a circulation than the former. If w# are to condemn silver liecaiiso it is Inclined to Huger in the vaults, wo must more emphatically cry out against the yellmv metal for its much more pro noum-ed reluctance f >- ,et around among the people. Dpiumi the month of August, just past and lot t ho first time since the coin age of the silver do. vs, the orders fur standard dollars have exceeded the amount produced. The shipments dur ing the last I all i f August woie the lar Rest ever made m the same length of time, This iiifni mation should l»e piotn; t'y conveyed to General Weaver; it might make him go away som#whe:* and hide himself to Ween ; init even that would be “relief I" the public-, and would not hurt him to any sriious extent. Silvci dollars are hardly the things that people would want to store away, consequently this movement of silver must mean cir culatkm; circulation means traffic and ax truffle means profit, there are pleasing indications in this Mint feature. Anu the Republican party is not so very strong after all—trembling on the verge, an it were—for this is what the Philadelphia .Y o rk Wiew.

Brown Brown. ‘ KlUor Democratt: I have just read an article, signed “ .Vo i Partisan,” in your last issue, giving vent to the old fogy prejudice against Senator Joseph E. Brown. The writer appears blinded to the fact that a great revolu¬ tion has taken place in the minds of all the solier-thinking jieoplo, not only in our old Commonwealth but throughout the entire Mouth, and the writer—“ No Partisan ”—may as woll console himself witli the reflection that the people—the independent voters—hereafter are deter¬ mined to rely more upon thoir own judg¬ ment and not to lie led blindly by those who apjieal to their prejudices into trou¬ ble any more. What the t*eople now de¬ sire is substantial prosperity and nothing save the exercise of good common sense in all matters touching the present and future welfare of the people will bring about that result. It in painful to con template upon the delusion of the honest masses of the people by political dema¬ gogues iti the past For the future lot every one take counsel of his own judg i ment—choosing men of practical kuowl edge to rule over them. I It is true, Senator Brown accepted of ! reconstruction acts of ('-ingress- giving liia reasons at the time — stating that, in his judgment, it was host to accept the n itnittion, and, whilo his position was ^ ( .

Should tlm people » ow consider the question fairly and t *H»«rely, without prejndieo, giving him the advantages the situation offers, hav big the deliberate, solver reflection of the l«ople as to the propriety of his course and (be privilege of reaching them by j reason, it is safe to conclude that the ] chances for Brown’s endorsement are not hazardous ns were those of his col league, Senator Hill. Senator Hill, stak j ing oil his chances, running with cur j rent, availing himself of the advantages ; of inflaming and exciting the passions Hnd prejudices of the people by his j famous notes on the situation and by his belligerent harangues of the time, was successful. It gamed for him a seat iu the Senate, llis pre-eminent ability qualified him for the task of exciting by'the a j people driven almost to madness the loss of proper tv and the nearest and dearest friends 1-v a cruel war.

It will be a triumph of wisdom, justice and moderation. Upon the supposition that resistance to reconstruction could or would have been effectual and att tided with satis factory results, the people might now : with some degree of propriety condemn the policy recommended and pursued by Senator Brown, but it was resistance in thrfr madness and folly without pidic.v. ; Let mo call attention to the inoon sisteney of condemning Senator Brown’s puet course. Has not the Democratic P»rtf of tliis J’tate. which has had the rule and, in every national convention 111 which they have been represented, indorsed the reconstructiou a.tsof Con P'-ss, t *gcthc; with all the amen l manta Ve the CxmsUlutum U:e Liiited states? Have they not. In doing this, whether wisely or unvv;s.*ly, willingly or willingly, indorsed the policy recoin- 1 mended and course pursued by Senator STS government, through the press and by every means in their power? Has not the public press been put to this task from time to time by the folly of our people^ growing out of their prejudices Do not expressions of disfavor and dis- , like of Senator Brown by bis party on ! account of having indorsed reconstruc tion acts of Congress put them in an apparent hostile attitude ? In this con- * nection I would quote from the Wash- ! ington correspondent of the Atlanta . OunHitoion, dated June 1.1880. liefer rins ring to to the me nartv iwny, he ne say mv • . “They will say that all this talk about t | ie .Smith being reconstructed and about establishing fraternal relations is hutnhng, that the Democratic party is still so bitter that they will not reinstate a man into tlu; party after constant, steady adherence becaifCT fc. “® principles and their nominees reconstructi* h( , weu( for lusta iBing the measures of is<M.

These questions the people ask on every side, and we give the answer in the follow¬ ing paragraphs. I. Those merchants can soli cheapest who buy and sell in the largest quantities, and who manage wisely enough to reduce the expense of selling to a minimum. Such a merchant not only buys his the goods cheaper, price but even if he had to pay same as another who manages with less economy, it is plain who would have the advantage of popular prices. II. Those Merchants can sell cheapest who buy invariably for cash ; not borrowed cash, but Capital of their own. This is*'vident paid, when it is remembered that interc t or an extra charge for a term of credit, must be added to the price charged by the retail er. III. Those Merchants can sell cheapest who lmy their goods at wholesale headquarters, at trade centers, where prices are lowest to the retailer; from because hand, he hero gels not his have to plies first and Atlanta does Augusta pay an extra fee to an or jobber for bridging the way between him and headquarters.

Those Merchants can sell cheapest svhr» not only give personal attention to selling: their goods, hut also personal and critical attention to the purchase of them. Such s merchant visits the great markets for him' self and does not depend so much upo n the judgment stock of others, as he would if his was merely ordered while he re mained at home. In this way he “gets the run ” of the fluctuations of the market, anik becomes acquainted with the new channel* of trade and can take advantage of there, so as to bring down prices to all his custo¬ mers. If you want to buy goods cheap, bujr them Irom such merchants, no matter who they are, so they are honest and upright. In conclusion we wish to ask the reader* of The Democrat if we do not in our busi¬ ness, and method of conducting it. fulfill these evident and essential conditions? Ask yourself or others, who it is that buys and sells the largest amount of goods ? Who it is that always pays cash? Who it is that always buys at headquarters? Who it is that gives the closest personal and sale atten¬ of tion, both to the purchase goods? Ask these questions and we aro i willing to abide the results of honest Im¬ I partial answer. C. A.
