The New York Gold Room.

Conceive, as representing the gold room, a
room so by 40 feet, with circular space in the
centre, five feet in diameter, enclosed high
Holding half this circular fence are tho bulls,
and surrounding the other half, and facing each
other, arc the bears. The bear is the man who
contracts to deliver, at specified future time,
cold which he does not own; bull IS one who
contracts to take the gold. Hence, IN the IN
terying time, it Is the interest OF the bear to
depress the price of the gold, as the bear pulls
down his strong paws, and of the bull to raise
the gold, as the bull throws upward with hls
horns. The gold is, in fact, never delivered,
and never was meant to be. When the time
Tor delivery arrives, the losing party pays the
difference between tho price Of the gold then
and at the time when the contract was made.
There were perhaps four hundred men In the
room below, crowding around the circular ra't-
ing, jostling and elbowing.e each other, and gos,
ticuating and yelling in 4 manner that would
have taken the laurels IN Pandemonium. -
Every mans arms were going, every man
throat open. "One forty lone forty and an
eighth, +" "onc forty and quarter" eighth, "
eighth" quarter, quarter" were, rung
out with the sum total of power that each man
could command. 1t looked as though every
man was in a fight with his neighbor, wishing
to drown his voice or clutch his throat. They
yell from nine in the morning to four or five at
nght.-Erchange.

The Pope ON EXTRAVAGANCE IN FEMALE
Dress. .-Mademoiselle Marie dc Gentelles has
recently published work rebuking ladies for
their too great extravaganza in dress, and the
authoress has been rewarded by an autograph
letter from the Pope. His Holiness says:
'In these times OF peril each day more dan
gerous for the soul, it Is our custom to apply
ourselves to extirpate the root OF evils, among
which the extravaganza OF women aSsuredly Is
one of the first in Importance.
eve see with great satisfaction, dear daugh-
ter In Jesus Christ, that, not content with con-
forming yourself to our advice, you have so
well understood the Importance and gravity OF
the matter that you have written book upon
its dreadful consequences, aud aroused the
women of our time-especlaNy those who are
enrolled ir the association OF Christian Mothers
and of Children of Mary to league themselves
against this evil, which is fraught with ruin to
the home and the family For this it is which,
in the artistic care of garments and head-dress
attentions which, indeed. are bestowed many
times in the day--this it is which absOrbs the
time that they ought to give to works OF plety
and of charity and to family duties; it is this
which leads to brilliant parties, to public prom
enades and to shows it Is this which teaches
how to run from house to house, under pretcxt
of duties to fulfil, there to give themselves up
to idleness, curiosity and indScreet talk 1t is
this which serves as the food for evil thoughts
this which consumes the resources they ought
to keep for their children, and wastes the sub
stance which ought to be so useful to them.
This it is which often disunites man and wife,
and still more often hinders marriage, for men
are not often found who consent to charge
themselves with such enormous expense,
The Pope concludes:
LET all be persuaded that to insure the es
TEEN and love of their husbands, they have no
need of such costly hair dressing, such splendid
toilets; but rather to cultivate their mind,
cultivate their heart, and to cultivate virtue,
for all their glory cOmeth from within
