As our readers know, it is the policy of the party now in power to hurry forward a return to specio payments, and as we also know, they de preciate silver by refusing to make it a legal tender, awd as we see that on is this subject the democratic party divided, it would seem to be doubtful what policy may prevail in the future. One thing seems clear to us however, and that is the people ought toinjut upon the passage of a law at the next session of Congress, making silver coius legal tender for debts as well as customs duties. Such an act would at once tend to stimulate the development of our mines, ard we would soon see a much more active business going ou in the country, es pecially in oar mountain regions. Hut to accomplish so desirable an object the people mast agitate the question, they must take in their own hands the business of the countrv, and not leave to scheming politicians the policies of the government.

Our own governmnt el an da committed to putting at about $10,000,000 of eilver coin in substitution for fractional currency; and the feasibility of that operation depends upon the relative value of legal tenders and silver, the chance in favor of suuoess diminishing in proportion as the value of , e. silver fluctuates." It would seem to be a remarkable fact, that while other governments are trying to net rid of silver as money, our own statesmen have to force tho country into what they call specie payment; that while the market value of silver is dropping' from time to time as other cations dispense with its nse as cur rency, oht government, though pre tending to desire its circulation, continues in fore hws relating to it, the natural ani inevitable tendency of which is to reduce its value hero also, and in that way make it a "depreciated" currency.

After becoming discoursged he was about to hnnt the team, when signs of life began to appear, IU then recovered as waking from a sleep, and was able, by the assistance of bis brother, to get up. The younger brother then unloaded his wagen, leaviog a few boards on to make him as comfortable as possible, placed him upon them and started for home. After traveling about 6 or 6 miles they were overtaken by George and Wni. Halls, when George very kindly offered to take oae of the runaway horses and and proceed to Hunt-miland tend back a spring wagon to meet them He succeeded in getting a team, and Mr. Samuel Hammond went and met them at the mouth ef South Fork Oaoyou where they put him into the spring wagon, and d by the very kind attention of Mr. he was made very comfortable, considering the circumstances, until he arrived at home. After scniing the team back after him, Mr. Halls proceeded on to Eden to inform us of tho accident, and everything was made ready for hia comfort. Oa his arrival the neighbors came in and offered all the assistance they could give. This tnoruiog he is very sore, but is iu a fair way of recovery. There are no bones broken, except ene or two ribs, which we think are crocked. A word more aDout the horses. When they started to rnn they l?ft the road and struck a tree, broke the reach, left the hind wheels and the lotd, and down the canyon they went with the front wheels. They soon got loose from the wagon, and one of them was caught seven or eight mile down Beaver. The other horse has not yet been heard from.
