Exchanging Currencies.


Gen. Schoeif, the Hungarian who is do
ing so good service 10 Kentucky, lately
gave them a specimen OF his financial
shrewdDess. The story is told as follows
in a Cincinnati letter.
"Wheu the General arrived in the
neigSoorhood Of London, after the Wild
Cat fight, he found that Zollicoffer had
been levying on Union men for provi-
sious, forage, transportation, &C., and had
paid them in confederate bonds. lui-
Eating sn example which sccessioui.ts
thought so unexoeptionable, Gen. Sshoef
conmcnced levyiDg on the sccessiouists
for similar supplies. Meantime he as
seubled the UGion men, and opening an
exchange Office for their benefit, set at
defiance all banking rules By taking the
confederate bonds at par. and supplying
the Union men With good Ohio and Iudi-
ana money in it's stead. Then, when the
secsssioGists presented their bills, he paid
them all of, with the utmost poiiteness,
their oRn currency. They didn't know
enough to be thankful for the arrange
nept, but that wasn't bis farlt.

A Singular Incident.

The Lynchburg (Va.) Republican pub
lishers the following incident, remark ablt
alike for its singularity as we'll as for it,
melancholy result:
Just before the war broke out, and be-
fore Lirsoln's proclaim alton was issued, {
young Virginian, named Suunerfeld
was visiting the city of New York, where
he made the acquaintance of two Misses
Holmes, of Waterbury Vermont. He be
came somewhat intimate with the young
ladies, aud the intercourse seemed to be
mutually agreeable. The proolama atioD
was issued, and the whole north thrown
in blaze of excitement. On visiting the
ladies one evening, at the hour of parting
theY remarked to Sun merfield that their
present meeting would probably be their
last, that they must hurry hoze to aid in
akiDg up the oyercoats and clothing for
the volunteers fron their town. Sum-
merfeId expressed bis regret that they
must leave, but at the same time request
ed them to see that the overcoats we're
we'll made, as it was his intention, if be
ever met the Vermont regim ent in battle,
to kill one of them aud take his overcoat.
Now for the sequel, Virginia seeded
The Second Vermont Regiment, portion
Of which vas from the town of Waterbu.
ry, was sent to Virginia. The battle of
Manassas was fought, in which they we're
engaged, and go was Sun merield. Dur
ing the battle, Summerfeld marked his
man, not knowing to what State he be-
longed; the fatal ball was sped on its er-
rend OF death; the victim fell at the fash
of the gun, and, upon rushing up to Sc
cure the dead mans arms, Summerfeld
observed that he had fine new evercoat
strapped to his back, which be deternin-
ed to appropriate to his own use.
The fight was over, and Summerfeld
had time to sxamiue his prize, when, re-
markable as it may appear, the coat
was marked with the name of Thoma as
Holmes, and in the pocket were found
letters signed with the names of bis sis
ters whom Summerfed had known in
New York, and to whom be had made
the remark We have quoted, in which the
dead man man was addressed as brother
The evidence was conolusive-he had
killed the brother OF his friends and the
remark which be had made 10 jest had q
melancholy ful6llment We are assured
this narrative is literally true Sum-
mer6eld now wears the coat. and, our in
formant states, is not little impressed
With the singularity of the coincidence.

Our Old Wars.

During the last hundred and sixty .tw,
years We have had nine wars, (withou
counting Indian wars aud all of thes,
together make fifty years of warfare
That is to say, during the last century
and half, we have had one year of wal
to about every two years of peace.
Our first war took place in the reign o.
William III, and lasted from l6s9to 697
William III, the champion of Protestant
interests, waged long war With the
magnificent and prodigste Louis XIV, oi
France. Could Puritan New England
refrain from lending helping hand =
Two considerable expeditions sailed from
Boston against the Northren French po.
sessessions, both Of which ended in sad
wreck and brought on New England the
curse OF deprecated paper money. Thi,
war was always styled by the colo.
nists liking Williams war"
The next war. known as Queen Anne g
war, began in 1902, and ended With the
peace of Utrecht 10 17l3. 1t was in this
war that the great Marlborough won bis
most brilliant victories. The brave and
generous sons of Massachusetts, again as
sailed the French in the North, and wres-
ted from them the province of Nova SEQ =
tia, conquest which the treaty Of U.
trscht, confirmed.
After thirty years of peace, the third
war broke out, called King Georges war,
because it occurred in the reign Of George
II. 1t lasted from 1744 to 174s. Once
more, Massachusetts, with the aid of six
other colonies, sent nortbward mighty
armament, and conquered the stronghold
Of Louisburg on the island of Cape Bre-
ton, an event that was celebrated in eve.
~ town, from Boston to Charleston, with
bonfres, fireworks, illuminations barba-
cues and thankssivings. The valiant
Yankee who commanded was knighted
and made Lieutenant General for his con-
duet on this occasion. Sir William Pep
ell he was thencetorth called.
Next came the long, fierce war, 10
which Braddcok fell, and Wolfe took
Quebec, and Canada and all India fell
under the doEinion Of Britain; the war
vas conducted By William Pitt. In Eu-
rope this sar vas called the seven years
war; bat in America, where it lasted
more than ten years, We commonly style
it the old French war. IttegaD in 1853,
and ended With the peace of Paris, in
1863. Glorious New England, nobly
seconded by New York, Pennsylvania
and Virginia, bore the brunt of this great
contest.
Then cane the war of the revolution,
which lasted eight years; then the rapture
with France in 1898; then the war OF
1912; then the war with Mexico; and,
last, this war of 1861, in which We are
Bow engaged.
All the old French wars were mainly
fought and paid for by New England and
we have the testimony of Gen. Washing
ton himself that bis great reliance during
the war of the revolution was upon Yam
kee stesdiness and va!or In the war of
1912, and the var with Mexico, the South
ern States bore their full share; bat it was
New England and New York sailors that
Won the battles on the sea and ght the
world that the United States had Navy.

Business Of the Country During the Year.
We End in one of the city papers ve-
ry interesting statement ofthe mercantile
failures in each State, both North and
South. during the three years 1857, 1860
and 1861. 1t exhibits some very re-
marksble results 1t shows that in spite
of the pressure Of the war, and toe disas.
trous effect it has had upon all kinds Of
business, the failures in the Northern
States during the year, although more
hauerous, base inyolsed a smaller a.
mount of liabilities than in 1851. The
Indebtedness in that year was nearly
S266, 900, 600, while this year it has been
hut little over SITS, coo, 600. TIE a.
mount of money lost to the Northern
States By the failure of the South to pay
it. debts, is estimated at S30O,000,0 GOO,
of which the City of New York loses not
far from $I60, ,OOG,0 600, The aggregate
amount saved by increased economy in
family expenditures is estimated at over
Si00, ,00O,0 900, which very nearl J meets
the expenses of the var thus far.
