Most individuals who invest money
in real estate are satisfied 10 receive xix

content with even less. If the security
is not as good as bond and mortgages
they must have a larger sum Co make
up for the greater risk. But whoever
heard Of money invested so that it

been done, aud can be again. This is
the way of it; Buy of some honest

DIR. Declat employs 4 syrup Of carbo-
late of ammonia with simultaneous

It is stated by an exchange that a
party of army officers, who have been
engaged in mounting guns and other
wise putting the Gulf forts IN service
able condition, while sailing through
Mississippi Sound, since the recent
flood encountered Il remarkable scene.
For miles were seen logs. driftwoOd
and patches of turf and soil floating
out into the Gulf, filled with live ami
mails, who 4uug TO their frail banks
with the tenacity of shipwrecked ma
riners. Among the animals were seen
rats, racceOns pOssums, rabbits alliga-
tors and mOceaSin snakes i'm uncOunt-
ed numbers, all brought down from
the swamps and marshes, perhaps
from 81 to 100 miles inland. The nov
ell exhibition had a scientific interest,
as it suggested the manner in which,
during past geological periods, ami
mails were transported from regions
far inland to the mouth of estuaries,
and their bones being entombed in
the slit and soft mud, furnished
the organic remains which are pre-
served for ages IN the hardened strata.
1t was, doubtless, by similar means
that the fossils now found in the solid
lImestOnes were engulfed and pre-
served, and also that animal life has
been distributed over portions OF the
globe.

THE NEW CURRENCY LAW.


This important measure, passed
in the last hours of the recent ses-
sion, will be found on this page.
1t will be seen that it deals with
both classes Of currency. The le-
gal tender, or old greenbacks, are
not to exceed in amount 1882, O00,-
eco, nor shall they be reduced be-
low that sum, by being held in re-
serve in the treasury, or otherwise.
OF the National Bank Currency it
prohibits any increase. The $44,-
100000 reserve is made a part Of
the circulation Of the country, thus
unlocking scme $26,OO0,0O0. 1t
takes from the East 100000
and distributes it to the South and
West. The East has long had
more than its share and even under
this bill it is said to have $25, Q00,-
eco more than it is morally en-
titled to.
