POLITICAL

PETER COOPER has addressed long
open letter to President Hayes, criticising the
past financial policy Of the General Govern
ment, and also marking out the proper
course, IA his opinion, to be pursued in flu
turc. He says: Our National currency must
be IN AIDE receivable for all purposes through
out the country, aud interconyertble with
3 per cent. Government bonds. Such a
currency would have been worth more to
the American people tnan all the gold mines
that have ever been discovered on the Con
tinent of America" He advises that silver
be withdrawn from circulation and Osed in
the purchase of foreign bonds, and that the
fractional paper currency be revived.
IT has been recently reported that 'Presi
dent Hayes, although in former years pre-.
disposed, like many other hard-money men,
to adhere to the prevalent doctrine Of finance
writers in favor Of single gold standard,
has materially changed his views during
the progress of TIE general discussions
| regarding the wisdom and propriety
Of the act Of 1878, which demonetized the
old legal-tender silver dollar. He is now In
favor Of its reconciliation, and OF the re-
adoption Of a double standard Of gold and
silver, or, in other words, he favors full re-
turn TO the condition Of things in re-
lation to these subjects which existed
previous to the legislation OF 1873,
being convinced that such a return to
the former system win greatly pro-
mote the resumption OF specie payments, an
object that he regards of the first impor-
lance. While, however, he considers the
legislation Of 1873 TO have been hasty and
uncalled-for interference with the lega-ten-
der powers OF large portion OF our circulat-
ing medium, he has not yet formed any de-
termination to bring the subject officially TO
the attention OF Congress, although it is by
no means improbable that he may hereafter
conclude that some recommendations on his
part of the nature above outlined may be
advisable.
AN Atlanta (Ga.) dispatch of the 14th
says the recent election in that State on the
question of holding Convention to remodel
the Constitution had resulted in a majority
OF 10, coo in favor of such Convention. The

were almost unanimous in favor Of the meas

The position of the teacher when
outside of the school-room depends on
his attention to social duties and de-
mands. Some teachers strive to rem

society, and society appreciates them.
Others sit down moodily in a boarding
house, make no acquaintances, have
nothing to contribute to the demands
made by the social circle upon them,

Indian Reverence tor a MeteOric Stone

Some few months ago paragraph
appeared in these columns, containing
short description of an aerolite which
was then and is still in the possession
of the Rev. DR.. Wood, of this city.
Little was known at the time about
the history of this curiosity further
than that it had been from time i'm
memorial in the possession of the In.
dams frequenting the Saskatchewan
Valley. 1t is doubtful whether it will
ever be known the exact time this
mysterious visitor reached the earth,
as the event is too long past to be pre-
served in the memory of anyone now
living. The following particulars
however, taken from letter addressed
by the Rev. John Macleod. of Nor
leyville, to the Rev. Dr.. Wood, can be
relied on: "As to the meteoric stone.
| have not met with anyone who saw
it fall, and my impression is that this
occurred previous to the memory of
those now living. The locality in
which it was found and from whence
it was taken is about one hundred and
thirty miles southeast of Victoria
Saskatchewan, and near Battle River.
The native Indians looked upon the
Pe-wah- bish, or iron as they termed it,
as something supernatural, and as such
reverenced it. Parents made offerings
at its shrine for the life and prosper
| ity of their little ones: travellers for
the success of their journey; war par
ties to insure Gf possible) victory over
their enemies and to aid in stealing
horses. They also laid their tobacco
and other stuff upon its altar. Great
| attractive power was attributed to II
for the bringing of the buffalo and the
animals to its vicinity; and as an EVIL
dence OF this the more superstltlous
now say that on account of its removal
the buffalo have entirely left that part
of the country. "-Toronto Globe.
