Look at the charac¬ ter of the men of to-day who are talked about as fit to fill the chair honored by such men as Madison, Monroe, Adams and Jackson. If their States happen to vote contrary to their political faith, they are considered “out of the ring.” If defeated for Governor of their States, they are not in the line of promotion. Such are now the tests, and the rule of action with parties. A man’s real merits, his abilities, his experience, bis acknowledged fitness fox the office, all goes for nothing if he has anything of a political record, or decided political opinions. If he can raise himself above the noisy political leaders, he is not the man wanted. But the popular man is he, who will allow himself used, who will do obeisance to certain political leaders ; who will confine his actions and ap¬ pointments to their hands. Planning for the Presidency has become an art. Something must be said or done to attract attention, and perhaps, a lucky speech may give a man a prominence he never thought of, but by an accident, as it were, a word or sentence is let drop which gives him notoriety, and immediately he becomes talked about as a fit and proper man. But when a man is nominated for dissident, j§t§g§£^)j^^ and the people are to en is, and what he has ever' jn cr like a xce to Twenty-sevenTrifies w^re tired at a/ turkey in Rutland last Thursday, with* out ruffling a leather or disturbing its equanimity. Evidently the present race of “Gr'reen Mountain boys’V are losing their prestige as marksmefi, for th e Herald's plea ‘that the turkey was too far off,’’ is too thin in these Creed more days. After several months of talk about it, President Vanderbilt, of the New York Central Railroad, has at last concluded a contract for a line of freight steamers, to be called the “Unicorn Line,” to run between New York and Liverpool, Hamburg, Havre and Antwerp, in con¬ nection with the New York Central, , and to carry grain and live cattle chiefly, making the trip across the ocean in fourteen days. Resumption—The Plan. The resumption act was passed as long ago as January, 1875, and lest some of its features may have substance escaped our readers, we present it in : 1. On and after January 1, 1879, the Secretary of the Treasury shall redeem in coins the United States legal tender notes then outstanding. take place 2. This redemption shall on the presentation of such legal tenders in sums of not less than $50. 3. The place of redemption is at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of the United States in the city of New York. 4. The redemption will be in either gold or silver, as the holder of the legal tenders desires, subject to the option of the government to pay in either metal. 5. The amount of these legal tenders is now $346,681,016. 6. The legal tender shall not be des¬ troyed, retired or cancelled, but shall be kept in circulation. 7. The resumption act does not ap¬ ply to the circulation of the national banks. Their notes are still redeemable in United States notes at the counters of the banks issuing them. The Yv7)ild’s Cold. [From the Pittsburg Dispatch.] The Ural mountains, Australia arid the United States are the most pro¬ ductive sources of gold supply, the first yielding $20,000,000 annually, the second $37,000,000, and the third $35,000,000. Prior to the discovery of the rich mines of the United Sfates the total production of gold was only $68, 000,000 per annum. The fever for the gold-hunting, finding which was excited by of the great mines of the pacific coast, rapidly increased the yearly reached production, until in 1850 it $120,000,000, and five or six years later gohOmSfcrwa^milec^k^ Bargains!
