City and County Oficial Press GAKENBACKE:—Thero is quite a siir in Terri . kour neighboring Territory in regard to ma ing greenbacks the currency there. Gentle men from Virginia city, Austin, and other Pa . peints in the silver region, tell us that a = feeling exists favorable to the national > currency. Tue difficulties that beset the, et ed existing state-of things ore such that ‘many, of the iret minds in tue Territory ban sve-no way to overcome them, save by the reoognition and us: of greenbacks ae the cufrenoy. We observe that the press of the Territory, although # little shy ou the subject, anys enough, or allows envugh from others to be'eaid, to show thabthe public mind is agitated somewhat over thereon the question. The sthck-brokers have pronounéed favorably to the paper medium, and C, E. DeLong ne teken the responmbility to appear in public in the same behalf, Tuere must be sume power compelling this open ndvooacy of » change of currency. E thera _ gtrong sentiment in favor is generating, or an overwhelming ‘necessity forces men to the _. The general tendency of events is to mike gréenbacks the currency in oll the. States of the Union. ‘The introduction. of paper monay into Washoe as the circulating mediuin, will have an important influence upon California, cxuslig her to gravitate in the aume “direction, ‘The currency of our State, gold Sod ai.ver, suite uw quite well, yet we shall not be. the firat to complain when gutern. ment paper is put im circulation wstead,— We opposed the repent of the specific cons tract lnw and the pnasige of other laws eal ‘Culated to rob some of our eifizena for the ———penefit of the dishonest and dis' onorable, and ifit could be done without. detriment te the Government, snd ovr citizens we hail rather the existing currency would remain . rr a cg a ne on Pee Ward; Hnless it would-be outa reiteras THaT Bean Vasey Ruav:—Thit poper has been the advocate wf the iptoposed rond from our city to Bear Volley, » long time, in fact from the incipiency of the prop» tition. Our columne have often ‘contsined Lurguments and appeals in aid of the prej-ct. We need tke round. We. have needed it to save the steep grades on the crossings of the. South Yuba,which are the most serious ob« stacles on our route to silverland. We need should be constructed, thé cost of construction and the ben: fite-to-resalt trom the aime have oll been set forth in these colfimns months ago, and we can scarcely add sanoths tion of whut wes suid by us When uo others had a favorable word to offer in furtherance of the projet. When others were endenvoring to depreciate our aivuntain route, thie paper wes ite sole detender, When ins provements were required upon it, we were the only advocetes. But times change, and men change with them, or rather circum stances chunge them, Stress of weatier sullictimes drives men feariy wrecked tito an UnWelcome port, Where they are obliged todv usthe natives do. Our city may be soou in the same céndilivn, driven ty cons stiuct-a rod, fur their Own safety, over . which bituerto there hoe beeu the utmost upotby. ate ; * _We would Tike to see a spirit of enterprize in this community that is not to be de trected trom becaus: of its be ing excited ly the neeresity of eeclf preservation, But we almost despair of witueseing it in the-present generation, We suy again, it 1s the duty-of Nevada, a duty that every business citizen owee to himself, to construct! a good rond to Bear Valley.” Thin in all thot is neeesaury to be soid-onthe eubj-et tht the wer pet le bi gun. EastTenn News:—Phe Union of yeaterday anya; the telegraph gives us the welcome neweal decwive surcess—inVirgiia. The flipktnevement of Havueo k‘s corps and the eUinplete fvilure of two attempts to eut Graut's communestions precipitated: Lee's retreat trom Spottsylvania. -dlancock moved . as it is in Californias? But ‘1f time be given forall classsen to prepare for the change tie Smee dete would reeult from the subeine 0 of greenbacks in the place of gold. Men who have loaned gold with the expec. ~~ tation of receiving gold, and merchanta who have sold goods for which they paid gold, should be protected agninat swindling, nnd any mon who pays greenbacks where ‘he ought in common honesty te pay gold,is» scoundrel and ought to be so held by all manhind. The; roposed changes in the laws of the State last winter would have resulted iv the virtual stealing of two-fifths of sowe men's property, and in a grent majority of Onees loyal men would have been the suff-rere, while the disloyal or the doubttul would have bern the gninera. We op poev all such schemes, aud shall oppose them. But, we think there is » strong current which is cars ~rying usin the direction of a paper currens oy, and ao thut the people understand it, and ‘are ready for the a Be in time, we, are eatioBed.
