The senate then resumed considera
tion of Ihe u ii Mulshed business being
the resolution of Mr Matthew de
clining the right of the government to
pay the lulerrsl and principal of tho
bonds In silver.
Mr. J iiiic of Florida spoke at some
length as to ihe power grunted con.
gress by the conslliu'inn to coin
money rcgtilalu Its value etc. and
argued that tho time tho acts of I Sin)
to .trcnglhcu the public credit aud of
1HT0 to aiithiiil.e Ihe refunding of the
national debt were pus-ed tho silver
dollar was a legal lender coin of the
country a .d congress had no power to
exclude It from the coinage of the
country. He claimed that there could
beuo legal lender under tho coustltii'
lion except gold and silver. He then
referred to tho arguments that tier-
many F.nglatid aud other Kurnpean
countries had deiuouetlsed silver and
said: " Has II come to this that the
policies of F.uropcau governments
were to control the American repub
lic V" He lutd heard of such alliances
before but they were always to crush
ut the liberties of people. The policy
of demonetizing silver began with
kings aud emperors aud ended with a
republic.
He denied that it could be called re
pudiation to pay the bonds in silver
and said repudiation was revoltli g to
tho people. Ho then referred to the
condition of allairs at the close of the
late civil war aud said it was neces
sary then for a time to abandon that
system of finance which existed pre
vious to the war but the necessity soon
passed uway and now the cause of all
the distress throughout the country
must he sought for in our present
tluauclal system. He spoke of abund
ant crops and suld the troubles aud
embarrassed feeling now existing over
the laud were not brought about by
natural causes they wore the worn of
men. He reviewed at some length the
various financial acts of congress will)
regard to that of 'li'J to strengthen the
public credit; said itHhould have been
called an act to inureaso the burdens
of the people as it was intended to
bind them to the payment r.f the
dent In coin. He hoped it was the
purpose of congress now to restore
silver '.he much abused metal which
Ood decreed should serve man as
money to Its former position.
It had been argued that tho uct of
1873 demonetizing silver was passed
because silver was not reliable be-
caue it fluctuated in value He denied
that tills was true aud said that from
the organization of tho government
down to 1373 there was no legislation
respecting coinage which showed that
there had been auy variation what-
ever in our silver coin. If any coin
should have been abolished on account
of being unstable in value it should
have beeu gold.
He spoke of the advantages of silver
money aud suid therewas a large
channel lu the business of the country
which silver could Oil aud it was em
phatically the money of the people. In
conclusion he advocated the adoption
of the resolution of'Mr. Matthews be-
cause he thought it was for the true
interest of the country though of
course he entertained the greatest re
sped for all who (tillered from him.
The senate adjourned to half-past one
tosiuorrow to attend the muck funeral

Colonel Adair dulagate of the Cher
