THE GBIAT MOiilY PROBLEM How tbe United States Assists Great Britain to Depress Silver. s»ss*> Foreign I •natrlrs M ssi I.old Tit**- Drsisr •■ lis* I . S).-.*Sol Yellow Metal to Urn Round. On Thursday last the Bank of England raised the rate of discount one-half per cent. Englsnd wsnts more gold, snd this Is the wsy it gets it. On this sub ject the Tscoma Ledger ssys : "As there is not gold enough to go round, giving esch country enough to do its business, esch mast ran short occas ionally, and when the snpply on band must be replenished. France has been replenishing lor some time past, and so has Austria. Germany and Rnssis strengthened their reserves some time previously. Englsnd being the richest commercial nation, largely a c.editor of all the world, with something like $10, --000.000,000 invested outside her own tight little islands, on which interest and divi dend* are being regularly paid, rarely has to make any a.oecial effort to accumu late gold. The simple process of raising the discount rate by the bank ol England usually accomplishes what is wanted. When the bank of England raises the discount rste, therefore, all the world must submit, snd all the commercial world i* affected. "At the late international monetary conference Lord Rothschild asserted that th* world's commercial business was practically done through London by means of bills of exchange drawn on its bsnks. It wss necessary, he asserted again, that these bills should le paid in money of a known and invariable value, and therefore they must be paid in gold. "What gives gold its fixed snd unvary ing ralue he did not' say, but the con gress probably knew, or if it did not Mr. Kotnschild could hsve toldit that strict laws of England compel the purchase of gold for its mint st s fixed price. It takes no such precaution to protect silver becsuse it is not to its interest to do so. Being s strong creditor nation it finds profit in exacting payment in tho one metal whose value it guards, and by guarding appreciates its value by com parison. It has no silver mines, bnt is a large purchaser of silver for its indis bus iness, snd is therefore a bear on silver. By this besr process it annually rob* Indis, according to a statement recently made by s member of the house of com mons, of about $35,000,000, for which it make* no return. And still, aa this same member says, England still claims to govern India for India's good. "Under the present Sherman law the United States is compelled to buy 1,500-, 000 ounces of silver per month in the world st Isrge, snd London fixes the market price. The United States is therefore, in affect, voluntarily helping- England to depress tbe valves of our other products, especially those which compete with the products of India, as well. In discussing this matter in a re port m*deJo congress in 1884}. Mr. Ivan C. Michael*, who wa* connected with the committee on mine* and minimi. said: With free coinage the price of silver Will be stable again, and England will have to pay for alj the silver she must have for India 129%( per ounce fine. Ex change on India will advance her consol bill* to two shillings from the present rate of 1* 6d per rupee, and India's wheat could not be laid down in Great Britain W*J** tb«n 912J0 per bushel, snd as Indian wheat is inferior in quality. American wheat would sell in Great Britain at from 11.25 to »1.30 per bushel, snd our fanners would receive just 33 per cent.'more for the wheat they could raise. 'Now that England wants more gold. the United States will probably have to furnish it. We have been supplying all Europe aa it bss made its demsnds. We cannot very well svoid complying with her demand in thi* respect, since w* hsveso long been in partnership with her in depressing snd discrediting one of our own products for her benefit and our own injury.

The aristocracy of Enrope has at last set itself to getting a living in the ways - of less exalted people—that is, by trade and barter. Whether we who buy of , them have not to pay a pretty penny for the honor ia another question, but it is true that the Duke of Edinburgh played in an orchestra last week, and there are six titled dames in London who aro in the millinery business, and a very flour- j ishing concern is tho Gentlewoman's Tea company, all 60 of whose members have "Hon." before their names. This com pany has a house in the heart of Bond street, where tho would be purchaser may go to taste the wares and lie waited on by a scion of nobility in a muslin cap and apron, who handles tea as if slro had been born to it. All these wares aro im ported, blended, packed and sold by tho members of tho concern. Then in Paris a baroness and a com pany of ladies mako and sell all manner of fine and delicately perfumed soaps. toilet waters, powder, dentifrice, etc. It i Is de rigneur to have this whole soup j stamped with the crest and monograms of the owner, and these ladies have in rented a dainty little cake called "Lawn Tennis Soap," just large enough fi.r once nsing. The ingenious baroness sits in the shop and entertains her visitors While they select what they wish. But on* can fancy only a very bold spirit possessing the andacity to argno aliout prices or to look at goods without a defin ite intention of buying. We aro suf ficiently in awe of the shoplady as she is without adding a title to all her other Insignia oT superiority.—Hartford C'our ant Karly Klslng For Cold Mornlne*. Maine people are very early risers, and Just now the scarcity of daylight leads to some troublesome mistakes. A Bel fast woman, whose sons work in a fac tory, arose the other morning, built a fire, got breakfast and culled the mem bers of her family, who were all ready to sit down to breakfast, when one of the boys looked at his watch and found it to be but five minutes past 8. standard. As the factory wasn't putting in extra time on tbat end of the day. all again sought their beds for another nap. About 4 o'clock one of tho recent cold est mornings tho night watchman of the Stone mill at Dexter was surprised by the appearance at tho mill of ono of the workmen, who came all ready to be gin bis day's work. "I hated to get up like thunder, 'cause it's so cold," ho ex plained as he came in. "Why ain't you lighted np?" When the watchman con vinced him that he had got out of his Warm nest about two hours too early, the warmth of his feelings, as expressed iv words, gave the mercury quite a rise in that vicinity.—Bangor (Me.) Commer cial Opium a Cans* of Suicide. "I have been taking opium for the last four years. It was on leaving flic army that I met a young man to whom I ex plained that I suffered from severe head ache. He advised me to take opium, and I said to him, "Won't it grow upon inc."' He replied, 'No.' I have heard since that he hanged himself. I took to eat ing the drug, and from day to day I swallowed increased doses until I could take one dram every day. I used to roll tt np into pills. When my money lie came short, and I was nnablo to get. any more opium my life became a misery. 1 craved for it without effect, and as 1 conld not exist any longer without it I cut my throat." This was the statement made by ono George Hall, on whom an inquest was held at Burlington yester day, to a doctor. This doctor said 10 grains under ordinary circumstances were fatal. "Suicide whilo temporarily insane," was tho verdict.—rail Mail Gazette. Abolish the Ways of Grace. Bankers and lawyers aro pretty well ■greed, we believe, as to the advisability of doing away with days of graeo, and legislation to this effect has been recom mended to tho various states by tho state boards of commissioners to pro mote uniformity of legislation. It is de sirable that tho laws of the several states shall be uniform on this subject for tho general convenience of bankers and mer chants. There is no longer any reason for granting days of grace. Days of grtma belong to the times when tho facilities of communication vrero vastly less than now, and when tho three days' notice was a matter of necessity almost, and certainly a matter of accommodation. No reason exists nowadays why notes and bills should uot fall due at tho exact time agreed upon.—Detroit Tribune. To Whom Labor Is Real. In contemplating the sudden death of Genera! But lev, the immediate result of exposure while hard at work at the age of 75, many people naturally ask: "Why did he stay in the harness so long—why did he not rest upon his hard earned laurels and take it easy in timer Tho same questions are being asked concern ing Mr. Gladstone and others and aro usually asked regarding nieo »ho "die in the harness." The fact is that siuli men are not constitutionally organized that way. Labor is life to them, and rest is the tomb. One might as well ask Niagara to stop and take a rest as to ask • man whose delight is thought, ener.-y snd purpose. Stagnation is death witii ; great souls.—Boston Globe. The Caatle of Clrey. A historical mansion to which con- ' siderable interest is attached bus just sold for £100,000. This is the castle of Cirey, where Voltaire spent so much time in the company of ids amie, the Marchioness dv Chatclet, a bluestocking pur sang, who translated Newton's "Principia" into French. The bedroom snd study used by the author of the "Henriade," snd familiar from the pi- I quant description left us by Mmc, de Graffiguy still exist. In the library and picture gallery are several inscriptions in verse, composed by Voltaire, extol ling th* pleasures of study and seclusion.

A I'niqti* Invention Tbe last application of th* penny-ta ll! <M principle is rhsractirired by common aense, ingenuity anil utility. Iliiiii-rto the i-nblic has fed thesntomatfo machine with coppers in return for value. In the latest plan the process has been revented. The public will receivs pen nies instead of giving them. The idea is this: To the person who turns a crank 100 time« tho machine yields np one penny. The crank is connected Inside With adynnmo.anil tho 100 revolutions nf the handle manufacture and store s quantity of electrical energy which is to be eventually retailed by tho owners of the machine for the purpose of produc ing illumination. The plan appears to be feasible enough, and it would certainly in districts where ni:i-ni]ilovcil labor abounded be pro ductive of considerable good. No man need go in want of a meal who can ap ply himself to the electrical automatic machine. And tho invention might be ciipableof wide application. Whyshould not every household be provided with one? Every member of the family might in the name of exercise give the handle so many hundred turns a day sufficient, if that were possible, to provide elec tricity enough for tho purposes of light ing. Tbe turning of the crank might super sede dumbbell practice in the mornings, and during the summer months it might he possible to store enough electrical energy to tido over the winter. From the |Hiint of view of tho man in the street it would be interesting to know what in come ho could make in a week by a reasonable ex|>endituro of effort. Even if only 100 revolutions could be per formed in five minutes, the operator W'l be working at the rate of a shil an hour, a scale of remuneration nun Ii in excess of that paid in some in dustries involving quite as much physical exertion. —Electricity. The Intricacies of Wall Street. Just alter .1 ay Gould's death, a wealthy Wall street broker made a proposition to a young man who was not wealthy bnt who had lieen able to do the broker a favor, which tho latter appreciated. The proposition was couched in language something like this: "Dick, you have rendered mo a valuable service, snd I want to do something for yon. I will tell yon what I will do. I will carry 100 shares of Manhattan stock for yon for s month, or I will buy yon the best suit of clothes that yon can pick out. Which will you take?" The yonng man considered the propo sition for a few minutes and replied: "1 believe that Manhattan railway stock will eventually go up, but if I should be the holder of 100 shares it would be cer tain to go down. Such is my luck In variably. I will take the suit of clothes." On Friday this young man figured np how much ho had lost by making the choice that he did. When Mr. Gould died. Manhattan was selling at 182. On Friday it sold at a fraction above 174. Bad tea young man chosen the 100 shares and sold them Friday he would have been about $4,200 richer.—New York ; Times. II oii*i;ui Remalna In Texaa. It is reported that near Currizio Springs, Tex., un oval topped mound, covered with petrified human skulls, has been discovered. Tho mound is dx inilur in form and about 100 feet high and on ono side is joined to a short range of hills of abont the same height. On the summit and for some distance down the sloping side it is covered with what appear to be smooth, spherical bones, which upon dost examination prove to bo, it is sniil, [a trifled human skulls dis torted into gTOtestrn* shapes. It is further stated that by removing the bMM dirt and sand from the orifices of tho fnco the unmistakable human countenance is revealed. Bones of other classes aro also said to be found there, and from all appearances the whole mound is formed of human skulls.— Philadelphia Ledger. lii !• j il • Calne'a Joke. During tho last campaign Delegate John T. Came of Utah went over into Wyoming to preach Democracy to the people. There are a largo number of emigrants from Utah in the latter stste, and Mr. Caino thought it would be good polities to talk to them. While thus cam paigning ho met Senator Warren, who gently reproved him for trespassing. "If you conic over here again, I will have to. kill you," said Senator Warren laughingly. "That's all right," replied the dele gate, "tool you must remember that in tho matter of killing the Caines have always had the best of it." And the senator could not answer a word.—Washington Post. The i n-1 of a Steamer's Anchor. The French line steamer La Gascogne left for Havre without the port anchor and cable which sho lost off the quaran tine boarding station. A wrecking boat chartered at f."io a day succeeded in locat ing the anchor, but the grappling chains parted nnd it was lost again. The Gas cogne had to get ■ new anchor and cable at an umw of nearly $s,ooo.—New York Mail und Express. A Take Newspaper Man. According to recent dispatches th* ; aeujtational accounts which all the papers ; hail a few days ago of the storming of tbe jail ttt Bakersville, N. C, the shoot ing of the sheriff, the desperate battle between the mob and the sheriff* posse and tho lynching of three prisoners was all a -fake," as the newspaper men call it. devised by a man named Hyams, as sistant city editor of a paper at Johnson City, Term. Correspondents who were ki ot from Asheville, N. (.'., to Bakersville have returned worn out and disgusted, saying there is no trouble whatever there, nor is there any reason to expect any. The man Hyams who was guilty of telling and publishing this abominable lie should be discharged from his own paper and blacklisted by every respect able newspaper in the United States.— San Francisco Chronicle. A Life For a 4 Icarette. Not many men can have sacrificed ; their lives for so trifling an article as a cigarette end.

This man, who had a bad character in tho army for his in nutiordination. waa undergoing ono of many terms of imprisonment he has had at Uicetie military prison, when he picked up a cigarette end that had been thrown down in the exercise ground.
