THE New SILVER CoIN.-Staunton is
plentifully sprinkled with the new silver
coin-halves, quarters and dimes, and the
first result has been that good deal of the
old issue, boarded, has suddenly made its
appearance There is no likelihood of the
new issue being boarded, as it is worth less
by five cents in the dollar than green-backs.
Any quantity of it may be obtained from
the Treasury at Washington, not exceed
ing 800 at time, by remitting' fractional
currency in sums of S. and it's multiples.
1t is so long since metal has been current
that the people seem to be rather shy Of the
new coin than anxious for it, the colored
people particularly seeming to have their
doubts about it. After the novelty is off
most of us will yearn for the much abused
but convenient fractional.
