bill. These instructions were signed by
large majority of the Democratic leaders
about here, and in obedience to them Mes.
srs. Massey, Rand and Naneum voted for
the relief to The Road. In 1914, this list

GoLD DOLLAR. Judge Douglass has made
movement in Congress to mingle the gold dollar
with our currency. The Washington Union says
"This coin has been long known in the hard
money countries of the world. We have seen it in
Turkey about the size of dime, yet much thinner;
and have considered it the very best representation
of fifty pieces, occupying the small space of CT
gar, and packed in little perfumed purses fnr the
ladies' and the higher orders of society. Such a
coin could be RENTED under seal from one end
of the country to the other, and would be a vast
Improvement under the present currency. We
trust the Committee Of Ways and Means will see
to this matter When vast amount Of these val
liable coin shall be thrown into circulation they
will drive out the small bills that serve to Danish
specie from the every day currency of the country
Such dollar would not be boarded up in banks or
private repositories but would for ages circulate
without loss by abrasion, coin for the people,"

Temperance in PruSsinn SHcsia Temperance So
cieties have nowhere produced more favorable eff.
fects than in Upper Silesia. From report pub
lished by the authorities Of this province under the
order of the KING, and posted up about the city, it
appears that during the last year eighteen distiller-
les have been converted into establishments for
some other branch Of labor and one hundred aud
eight others have been left unemployed. That in
the quantity of Brandy made during the same time
there has been a decrease Of more than l3950,0O0
quarts, from that made in the year preceding; and
that consequently the duties on spiruous liquors
have been lessened 251. 459 thalers. That the low
or classes of people have been much more constant
at church than before; that the application to labor
has been greater domestic life more tranquil, and
very few disturbances in the public streets have
taken place. These facts have been made known
TO all the large landed propretors of Silesa, by cir
culars addressed to the directors Of districts Cor.
