TIE Supply Of Goid-The supply Of gold
il so great at the present time. that nothing
but the most reckless speculations could
have produced that panic which we now OBJ
serve IN Paris and the other European money
markets. The crop Of gold was never more
luxurious than at this very moment. Russia
raises four millions OF gold annually in the
Ural mountains California, since the gold
discoveries ~ 1918, has produced sixty-four
millions, and in the last four or five years
nearly fony-two millions have been obtained
in Australia, and yet gold by which we reg
ulate our issues OF paper money, is as uMch
an object Of anxiety and alarm to the mer-
chant and broker as IL was before these enor.
nous masses Of auriferous wealth found their
way into the world. Before 1851 the Lon
don Mint coined gold at the rate Of one TO
four millions a year. In the five years end
ing 1855, It coined gold at the rate of nearly
eight millions a year. In France the change
is equally remarkable. In the four years
ending 1850, the coinage OF gold IN that
country was about two thirds of a million an
nually. 1t Is now more than ten millions
annually.
Such an amount Of coinage should sup
ply the world with all the half eagles and
soyereigns that 1t can POSSIBLY want, 1t
should do this, but il does not The want Of
com is greater IN France to-day, than il was
before tho discovery Of the inexaustible
gold mines Of California and Australa.-.N

Photograph IN The Eye.-Dr. Sanford, who
examined the eye Of Beardsley, murdered at
Auburn, TO test the truth Of the statement
that the last scene viewed by q dying man
remains fixed on the retIna OF the eye, pub
fishes this interesting statement ~ At first
we suggested The saturation Of The eye ia
week solution Of airophine, which evidently
produced an enlarged state of the pupil.
On observing this, we touched the end Of the
optic nerve with the extract, when the eve
instantly became protubcrant. We now ap.
Piled a powerful lens, aud discovered IN the
pupil the rude, worn-away figure Of a man,
with light coat, beside whom was a round
stone, standing or suspended 10 the air, with
a small handle stuck as it were IN the earth.
The remainder was debris, evidently lost
from the destruction of the optic, and It's
separation from the mother brain. Had we
performed the operation when the eye was
entire in the socket, with all its powerful
connection with the brain, there is not the
least doubt but that we should have detec-
ted the last idea and impression made on the
mind and eye Of the unfortunate man. The
thing would evidently be entire and per-
haps we should have had the contour, or
better still, the exact figure OF the murderer.
The last impression before death is always
more terrible on the brain IRON fear than any
other cause and figures impressed on the
pupil more distinct, which we attribute to the
largeness Of the optic nerve and its free
communication within the brain.

The Oldest Man in America.--
Peter Nassau, colord man, now
resident of Woodstock. Vermont, has
reached the extraordinary age Of
one hundred aud twenty-six years !
This fact has been established by NJ
Haskell, Esq, town clerk of Wood
stock, who has taken great pains in
order correctly to trace out Peters
history. When quite young, he
came as a gentleman's servant from
Martinique, his native place, to Bos-
ton, but for many years past Wood
stock has been his home. Peter
Nassau is as as we'll known in Yer
mont as the Green Mountains them
selves. He is of thin, spare frame,
and is nearly bald, but his skin is re-
markably smooth and unwrinkled.-
He has no son, but seven daughters,
two of whom yet live in Woodstock,
by which town he is supported. Go,
however, where he will, and he is
fond of wandering about, he always
finds friends who are glad to give
him food and shelter. His eyeslght
is still good, and his teeth remarka-
bly sound for a man Of his age. He
converses freely, but, unlike most old
men, is not garrulous. While he
WAS sitting I'm the office of the Wind .
sor House lately, some one asked
him how many more winters he ex-
pected to sec. "Ah! said Peter,
"if this yere house was offered to
to me all full Of gold, | wouldn't
'cept it to live my days over again"
1t is almost certain that Peter Mas.

In one Of the narrow and ill-light-
ed streets of Sachsenhausen, in an
attic Of lofty and unsighlly house,
sat a pretty Jiondine, about twenty
years of age, busIly employed with
her needle. The furniture of the
room was poor, but clean and tasteful
the girls whole dress would not
have fetched many kreu,zers but ev-
cry article was as neat, and fitted her
as well, as if il had cost hundreds.
Her fair locks shaded face bright
ened by pair of eyes of heavenly
blue, which bespoke peaceful mind
and pure soul. The spirit of or
der, modesty, and cleanliness reigned
IN everything around her. Her fea-
lures were delicate, like those of one
nobly born her eyes betrayed Sleep
Iessness and anxiety, aud ever and
anon deep sigh rose from the maid
ems breast. Suddenly, steps were
heard on the staircase, and her face
hehied up with Joy; she listened
