I The address of Colonel Samuel WalltfiRford last Friday ninht was listened to by i Kll the ministers in town, a numl>er of other dignitaries, and a considerable crowd of in- 1 [cr-ated spectator*. The Colonel has a level head on the money question, and It is n great pity that every inan in town did not hear him rhis l? tlie second time that he has edified kudience* In this town on tfcc greenback 1 question and we hope that it will not be the ia*t. We thoroughly agree with him on the ' national bank swindle. We believe that t he ! twenty mlllloiiK they cost the tax payors 1 :ould be saved by Issuing greenbacks. We 1o not go quite so faras the Speaker in be- | loving tlH*t money should be Inflated to a ;reat extent. We believe the less we tamper with the volume of the currency the bettor for the country.
