Great Montzlity among tie Fishes
The Indianapolis Sentinel says that for
miles in the waters of the Beech Fork Of
Salt River, Kentucky, the fish are dying
by thousands. The shore is covered with
their dead bodies to such degree that
the atmosphere is loaded with an often.
sive smell. The hogs have been turned
loose to feed upon them. No reason can
be given for this fatality. Every kind OF
fish ever seen in that region, with the
single exception Of the cat fish, has been
found killed.

OXYDE OF LEAD.-The Scientific A
merican says Common red waters scat
tered about the haunts of cockroaches
will often drive away, if not destroy them.
These waters, like candies, are colored
red by oxyde of lead, most deadly poi
son; and so is the acetate Of lead, or su-
gar of lead as it is sometimes called, on
visiting cards, which, being little sweet
ish, has been known to destroy young
children to whom they were handed to be
amused with. Fashion for once acts SEN
sibly in discarding glazed cards, using in
stead Bristol board, more plant, less
cumbersome, and really more delicate,

Regulations at the Mint.

PURCHASE OF SILvER.-The Director
of the Philadelphia Mint gives notice, in
consequence of the present accumulation
of silver coin at the Mint, that from and
after the first day of August next, and
until further notice, the purchase of silver
for coinage will be paid for in silver coins
only, and not in gold. The Ledger says:
The silver offered for purchase will be
weighed, melted, and assayed as usual,
and the standard weight determined there
from in ounces troy to the hundredth part
of the ounce, and will be paid for (as at
present) at the rate of one dollar twenty
two and half cents per standard ounce
The receipt given at the first weighing
must be presented by the seller or his
order, and usually payment may be ex-
pected on the day follwing the date of re-
ceipt or the second day following. For
the information of bullion dealers, coun-
try banks, &C., it may be stated'that, ac-
cording to the above rate of purchase, the
yield Of various classes of coin or bullion
will be about as follows:
Five franc pieces SO cents
Mexican and South American
dollars 1861
Old Spanish dollars l05 "
Revolutionary or hammered
dollars 1O1 &"
Half dollars, U. S., coined be-
fore 1887 524
The same since 1887 to 1853 524
Quarter dollars are rroportionally less
productive of premium, while dimes and
half dimes coined before 1887 have lost
rather more by wear on an average than
the premium would make up. Those
coined since 1897 to 1853 will average a
premium of 81 per cent. on their nomin-
al value.
German, Swedish, Danish, and
Norwegian crowns III cents
Old French crowns ia "
German forms Az"
Prussian and Hanoverian
halers 70
American plate, 12O to l22 cents per
ounce.
Genuine British plate, l25 cents per
ounce.
These regulations will take effect at the
branch of the Mint at New Orleans when
the purchase of silver is resumed at that
institution, of which notice will be given
by the Superintendent. At San Fran
cisco the purchases may be paid for in
gold or silver, at the option of the Super
intendent thereat, until sufficient sup
ply of silver bullion is received to meet
the public demand for silver coin at that
institution.

Both in the piece and Ready Made,
And cheaper far than sold before
At any other Clothing Store,
'Mong christian tribes or "Jewish" ranks,
May now be had at "MosEs FRAMES"
Fine cloths Of every price and texture,
Black, blue and brown and golden mixture,
Cadet and drab and olive green,
As handsome shades as e'er were seen,
To suit the taste Of every rank,
Who'll call and buy Of "MosEs FRANK"
And cassimeres, to match the cloths,
Not soiled by age nor eat by moths,
But fresh and fine, and good and new,
Better than kept by any "JEw,"
Toplease the plain, who dresses neatly,
For those who patronize J. @. PRIESTLEY.
These Goods they'll sell by bolt or yard,
For almost cost (as times are hard)-
Or make them up Partisan fashion,
If you will only bring your cash on
And plank it down, then you will see
That none can sell as low as 81. G. p"
"But viii they FIT" some one may mutter-
How can they miss? JIM PRTEsrLEY's cutterlll
He's by consent the greatest crook
That ever "Gent's" dimensions took
And all who comes will sing verse blank
To him who "cUTs" for MosEs FRANK.
Jiml JIM stop your scissors and take nv
measure for suit Of Broad Cloth" or every
body will be here and buy out PKIEsrLEY 1
