ApvlCEs from Washington say that
Secretary BRIsrow is in earnest with re-
gard to the substitution Of silver coin for
the fractional currency and the resump-
ton Of specie payments in 1879. 1t is
said that the gold sales will be discon-
tinued next month and the boarding of
gold commenced. Already the fractional
currency has been reduced four and II
half millions since the lst Of January,
and if it is TO continue in the same ratio
there will soon be scarcity of small
change for business purposes, unless the
new silver coinage Is paid ont and kept
out. But there's the rub.

The special Commission appointed TO ,
investigate the charges Of Professor .
MARSH against Secretary DELANo, and .
which has been pursuing its examination
at the Fifth avenue Hotel, New York,
have concluded their labors as far as that
city Is concerned. The Inspectors OF

were all examined, and samples Of all
these articles, except blankets, were III
spected. The result was that, as far as
these officials are concerned, they were
exoncrated.
The powers Of the commission haye
been extended, and they will take into
consideration the entire question Of
frauds in the Indian Department. and for
this purpose all the different agencies
will be visited. Tx Governor FLETCHER,
chairman of the Commission, said that
he WAS confident there was no fraud in
tho Gllipo, nC tLn contracts in the East:
H..
that the supplies were forwarded duly
stamped by the inspectors, and it others
were substituted on the way, or the ORR
sinal articles failed Of delivery, the facts
would be asccrtaincd, and the blame
placed where ii belonged.

BELLE STANLEY.
BY MABEL Z. HAArrnns

Oh the dark days are coming, Belle Stan.
ley,
When your flirting In life shall be DER:
Those bright glances so winning, Belle
Stanley,
Shall be dim and dull evermore.
You have broken fond hearts, fair Belle
Stanley,
That loved you, too, truly and we'll,
ley,
To Jesus their crimes will they tell.
And the cheeks now 80 rosy, Belle Stanley.
Will soon lose their beautiful bloom;
Thy form, proud and stately, Belle Stanley
Shall moulder away in the tomb;
And Try long, shining ringlets, Belle STAN
Shall be strewn with darkest of grey;
Thy white brow shall be wrinkled, Belle
Stanley,
Thy beauty shaft yet fade away.
And then who will weep for Belle Stanley.
The coquette, so hcartleas and rroud2
As she lies there bereft of her beauty,
Motionless and cold in her shroud.
All none will mourn for proud Belle
Stanley,
Her life bnt shadow has been
20 to thy grave unhonored, Belle Stanley,
To that life unknown and unseen.
