SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 25cn.
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.

We opposed the repent of the specific cons

‘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

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

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
