The Value of Gold and silver.

Public attention has been called of late
to the probabilities of the depreciation OF
gold as q medium of exchange, owing to
the decreased production during the past
fifteen years. After taking into considera-
tion the increase in population, the differ
ent uses to which the precious metals are
applied, and the annual wear of coin,
which averages only one-tenth of one per
cent is estimated that the supply of gold
from California and Australia and other
producing regions is far in excess of
the amount requisite to keep its value the
same as it was ten years ago. Apply to
gold the rules which govern the price of
every other commodity, that. the increase
in the supply diminishes the value, and it
must deprcciate in its purchasing power.
1t is fact worthy of notice that in Hol-
land and Belgium the standard of value is
silver and that in California, the greatest
gold-producing country of the world, long
leases of real estate are made not for gold,
but for the current price, at time of pay
ment, of so many bushels of wheat.
The estimated amount of gold in exist
ence at the commencement of the Christian
era was 1927 100000. At the discovery
af America, in 1892, this amount had di-
minished to $57 900, 900. In 1900 the
amount had risen $105, 200, 900; in 100,
to 1851 900, 600 in 1890, to 81, ,251,-
600, 600; in 1913, to S., 900, 900, 200; in
1853, to $4,000, 100000 in 1860, to
$4,000, 100000 From the commence
ment Of the Christian era to the discovery
Of America it is estimated that gold had
been mined to the amount of So, 800, 000,-
600; from that date to the close of 1912,
50, 800, ,000,0o9; to 1860, Russia adds
STAG, 900, 900. and California and Austria
liza, $4,000, ,000,0O The average an
nual production from 1843 to 1865 has
been $1S5, ,63S,S8 Of this the Pacific
States have yielded one third, and Austria
liza and New Zealand onc-fourth.
During the same period ofeighteen years
the silver production amounted to 81 ,620,-
400. 600, that of gold being $3, 341 $780,
600. The average yearly yield of silver
was 800, O22, 222 to $1S5, 1888, ,S88 of gold.
The relative value of gold and silver was
in the time of Abraham one to eight. Be-
fore Christ 500, it was to 13; A. d.
500, / to IS; A. d. 100, l to 15a.
This latter ratio continued without much
variation till the year 1900. The Califor-
MIA discoveries destroyed the premium on
gold over silver, and this, together with
he heavy drain in France for silver in
India for silks and other products, put sill
yer at slight premium.
The statistics in regard to gold coinage
ire as follows: From 1892 to the close of
1850 the total coinage of the United States
to $610, ,0OO, 900; of this total
he large proportion of 1925, 100000 was
coined in 1859 and 1860. France coined
n the period extending from 1926 to 1860,
!, ZOO, 900 francs, of which 4,200, 900, 900
rancs were coined after 1850. Russia
;oined, from 1850 to 1860, 220, 900, 900
oubles, out of total coinage since 1864
# 4S6, 100000 roubles. Great Britain
hows a coinage in ten years from 1850 of
c54, 900, 900 out of G259, 600, ,0G0 coined
ince 1908.

National Credit.

England owes $4,000 900, 900. We
owe 81, 300, 100000. England pays
$120, 100000 year interest. We nav
$3.50, 600, 600. England pays three per
cent. We pay six. How about the cred
it of the two countries? England borrows
all she wants at less than half the percent
age of the interest the government of the
United States pays, and the reason why
she docs it is, that she holds the correct
idea on the subject of taxation. The
screws have been turned as severely as
England's wealthy creditors will bear, and
the total is 1870, ,000,0 per year. We
have had to stand $3.50, 900, 600. Eng
land has $32, 900, ,000, 900 of wealth to
tax. We have not half that sum. The
back bone of this country was broken in
1866 when we raised that big load of
$3.50, 600, 900; and we show signs of in
creasing weakness since that period. At
this moment, "our resources" do not per-
nit us to raise much over half the sum,
above mentioned. With all our boasting,
the English capitalists know exactly our
national calibre. They know exactly our
resources They have clearer concep-
ton of the limit of our credit, a more per-
feet comprehension of our property y-crcat-
ing power, than We ourselves have, for it
is their business to study these things, and
we have been given decree in the great
national mercantile agency books of the
European capitalists, below that of half
dozen dynasties, which we are pleased to
denominate ''rotten." 1t is quite likely
that we could not borrow dollar at six
per cent, when Austria could obtain it at
half that rate. Our six per cent. bonds
are on the market to-day in Frankfort,
with no sales, while those of Austria, pay
ing only four per cent. arc selling.

American Manufactures.

1t is generally supposed that Great Bri-
tain surpasses other nations in the amount
of her manufactures, and it is undoubtedly
true that in tissues and pig iron she excels
all other nations, but we make many things
which are not produced in England, and a
close analysis shows that our aggregate of
81 900, 10000, 900 in 1860, exceeds that of
Great Britain. While we consume most
OF our fabrics at home, Great Britain sends
two-thirds Of her tissues and most of her
iron abroad. Manufactures make larger
figure in her exports than in ours, but still
a larger one in our inland commerce, which
is thrce-f5ld the foreign trade of Great
Britain. We may concede that she excels
us in tissues of wool, silk, flax and cotton,
but we have improved our mechanism and
spin two-fifths as much cotton as she does,
while in wool we have gained on her rapid
ly and must soon surpass her.
While she manufactures annually two
hundred and sixty millions pounds of wool,
we have carried our woolen machinery up
to capacity for two hundred and forty
millions, and have but recently introduced
the manufactures of muslins, delaines,
worsted and buntings. Although Great
Britain melts more iron ore than we do,
our finished iron is already more than hers,
and our boots, shoes, flour, furniture and
of wood exceed her goods of
the same description. America will hence
forth be the largest mart both for Agricul-
ture and Manufactures.

LOVES RETROSPECT.

When I was six and you were four;
When garlands weaving, fower-ball throwing,
Where pleasures soon to please no more.
Thro' gsoves and meads, DER grass and heather
With little playmates, to and fro,
We wander hand in hand together
But that was sixty years ago.
You grew lovely roseate maiden,
And still our early love was strong;
Still with no care our days were laden,
They gided joyously along;
And did love you very dearly
How dearly, words want power TO show;
thought your heart was touched as nearly;
But that was fifty years ago.
Then other lovers came around yon,
Your beauty grew from year to year;
And many splendid circle found you
The centre Of its glittering sphere.

But that was forty years ago.
And lived on to wed another
No cause she gave me to repine;
And when heard you were u mother,
did not wish the children mine.
My own young flocks, in fair progression,
Make up a pleasant Christmas row:
My joy in them was past expression -
But that was thirty years ago.
Yougrew q matron plump and comely,

She fills her baskets ample measure
And that is not ten years ago.
But tho first loves impassion'd blindness

How 10 FIX THE CLooK.-The Countrv
Gentleman contains the following When
the clock stops, don't take it to the repair
shop till you have tried as follows: Take
off the pointers and the face: take off the
pendulum and its wire. Remove the rat
chet from the tick wheel and the clock will
rum down with great velocity. Let it 20.
The increased speed wears away the gum
and dust from the pinions-the clock cleans
itself. If you have any pure sperm oil, put
the least bit on the axles. Put the ma.
chine together, and nine times in ten IL
will run just as well as if it had been ta-
ken to the shop. In fact this is the wav
most shopmen clean clocks. Ifinstead Of
pendulum the clock has watch escapes
ment, this latter can be taken out in an IN
slant without taking the works apart, and
the result is the same.

A RARE COLLECTION OF AMERICAN
CoINs.-The Noring Gail, of San Fran
cisco, announces that Messrs. Reipton &
Bumpus, of 626 Montgomery street, in
that city, have perhaps the only complete
set Of American coins in the hands of pri-
yate individuals in the United States.
They have the American silver dollar for
every year, from 1894 to 1866, half dol
lars from 1894 to 1866, quarter dollars
from 1896 to 1867, dimes from 1896 to
1861, half dimes from 1896 to 1867, cents
from 1928 to 1867, three-cent pieces from
1868 to 1867, and half-cents from 1898 to
1857. This collection has occupied more
than fifteen years of Mr. Reipton's time,
and cost about $40, 900. As an instance
of the rarity of some of the coins we will
state that the silver dollar of 1904 cost
$3.50, and Mr.. Reipton had, before he
succeeded in finding one he could pur-
chase made an unsuccessful tender of ST.
500 for one in the possession of gentle
man residing in Salem, Massachusetts.
Of the silver dollars of 1888, only I8 were
minted and consequently they are very
rare. The silver dollar of 1852 is also
very rare and is rated by numismatologists
at from $500 to $500. Besides this col
lection d American coins, Messrs. Reip-
ton q Bumpus have specimens of the coins
of nearly all nations, and some coins over
1900 years old. The coins are a great
curiosity, and their owners could readily
sell them for $50, 900,

Too CIvn BY HALF.-A learned Irish
Judge, among other peculiarities, had a
habit of begging pardon on every occasion.
Once his fayorite expression was employed
in rather singular manner. At the close

bench, the officer of the court reminded
him that he had not passed sentence of
death on one of the criminals, as he had
intended, 'spear ma,r said his lordship,

The HUMAN FIGURE.-The proportions
of the human figure are strictly mathemat-
ical. The whole figure is six times the
length Of the foot. Whether the form be
slender or plump, the rule holds good; any
deviation from it is departure from the
highest beauty in proportion. The Greeks
made all their statues according to this
rule. The face, from the highest point of
the forehead, where the hair begins, to the
chin, is one-tenth of the whole statue.
The hand, from the wrist to the middle
finger, is the same. From the top of the
chest to the highest point in the forehead
is seventh. If the length of the face,
from the roots of the hair to the chin, be
divided into three equal parts, the first di-
division determines the place where the
eyebrows meet, and the second the place
of the nostrils, the height from the feet to
the top of the head, is the same as the
