~ One of our complications with the
British authorities consists in the enlistment
of unnaturalixed British subjects into our
army. Numerous applications bave been
made for their release at the different English
consulates. and ALEC to Lord Lyons, on the
ground that our Government could no, hold
them - soldiers. they not having been natu-
rallied. and Is such are entitled to the
protection Of the British crown. Lord
Lyons is said to have demanded their uu-
conditional release, but Mr.. Seward con-
tends that the mastering in which such
soldiers voluntarily took bound them tor
the term Of service for which they enlisted.
Lord Lyons has referred the matter to Lord
Palmerston.
- The bill to allow soldiers to vote has
passed the New York Assembly by a stric,
party vote, Speaker Colicott and the Union
lists only voting forit. Democrats against it..
While Gov. Seymour opposes the bill, that
sound Democratic lawyer, Attorney General
ID. 8. Dickinson, affirms in a written opinion
hat the bill is wise. just and constitutional.
- People should be careful not to mu-
t.iass Government currency. The bills are
discounted IN proportion 10 the size OF the
missing fragments. If the third part of .
dollar bill is gone. il will be redeemed for
only two-thirds Of its original yalue. In

Premium, and Discount.

When gold is at so per cent. premium
we frequently hear parties say that paper
dollar Is only worth 80 cents, and that it de
preciates to an equal amount with tie rise
OF gold. This IS a popular error. and arises
from confoundlng OF premium aud scount
Fifty per cent.iaken from an article is much
greater than the ad iition of that amount
Ii we add so per cent to o making it s.,
or one third mOre;i il we deduct 80 per cent
it reduces TO >, or one half So a paper
dollar. W hen gold is worth so per cent. pre-
MUM, is worth 66 2-3 cents, instead OF so /;
and when gold is a 60, il is worth 621 cents
instead Of 40. The following is a simple
way of showing this: Five gold dollars at
100 are equal to eight paper dollars at 100;
he~cs each paper dollar is just five eigh's
of the other. or 62t cents.
Those who contend that paper dollar is
worth only forty-five cents when gold is at
fifty five per cent. premium, can easily dis
cover their error by asking themselves what
would be the worth Of q PAPER dollar when
gold is worth one hundred per cent. or
when il takes two paper dollars TO buy one
gold one. The worth of the paper dollar,
it is plain. would be just fifty cents. Ac-
cordng to the theory Of those who contend
that premium and discount mean the same
thing. the paper dollar would be nothing -
The value OF a paper dollar may be ascer-
tanned at any time by adding the price Of the
premium in gold to 100 and dividing the
sum into 100. For instance, if gold is at a
premium of so, divide SO into loo, and it
will give &c 2 3 as the value of paper dol
lar. or discount on paper OF 333 Dis
count ceases at one hundred per cent, but
premium is unlimited and NAV increase to
any conceivable amount.

A Hundred Years TO Com e.

Who'll press for gold this crowd d street,
A hundred years to come?
Who'll tread yon church with willing feet,
A hundred years to come?
Pale, trembling age, and finry youth,
And childhood, with its brow Of truth,
The rich and poor, on land and sea,
Where will the mighty millions be,
A hundred years to come?
We all within our graves shall sleep,
A hundred years to come!
No living soul for US will weep,
hundred years to come
But other men our lands will till
And others then our streets will fill
And other birds will sing as gay
As bright the sunshine as to-day,
a hundred years to come!
