4 PU2zLEg FOR THE TREASURY PEOPLE
st. LNis Republican, 9th: A curious
thing happened at the [. 5. sub-treasury
to-day. A gcntemanly, g0od-lOokng
stranger came in and asked TO see Gen.
Edwards, manager Of the sub-treasnry.
lie exhibited new onc-dOlar bill, a
grcenback, and asked fit was genuine
bill. The general scanned it attentlvely
and gave il as his opinion that the bill
was genuine, but before declaring posi-
lively he passed it around among the va.
rious employees OF the treasury, some Of
whoa have become quite expert
in their Judgment OF coun-
terleits. The bill was pronounced
good by all who examined it. The only
difference apparent upon comparing II
with other bills was that 1t was a little
more closely trimmed than those with
which IL was compared, giving 1t
longer and narrower look. The stranger
then said that he was a resident Of Mag
nOlia, Arkansas, WAS sort Of sport,
and reading the advertisement OF Ger.
tain party m the East who had queer
goods 10 sell wrote down Tor sample
and this bill was forwarded Ia reply.
The party to whom he wrote offered TO
furnish such bulls at the rate OF $500 per
$1,000. The Magnolia man sald lac did
not deal and never had dealt in counter
ieit money aud did not propose 10
begin now, but only waited TO ascertain
for his own satisfaction what
Kind Of looking money the cOncy makers
furnished. The Magnolia man has most
likely been tricked. The bill sent him
was doubtless good one, in order 10
induce him to send on the $500 tor 81 600 |
more Of them. As 81 bills are not
plenty and are wanted, a tOlcrably mae
cIrate counterfeit can be put ai'Oat, ana !
people need to be cautious. But II the
one shown 10 the sub-ircasurcr is really |
counterfeit, u Is the most perfect one |
ever Issued and VIII DO good deal Of |
mischief before il is run down. Let Us
have the silver dollar restored and the |
unlimited coinage act re-enactcd and |
then there will be no need Of paper dol
lars. Silver dollar VIII speedily take
their place"

blinds, some fine lady Of the viceregal
harem takes the air. She is accompanied
perhaps by little boy in European
dress, and by governess or nurse whose
bonnet and French costume contrast
strangely with the yelled figure opposite.
A still greater contrast is offered by
the appearance of the women who stand
by as the carriage passes, whose babies
are carried astride on the shoulder, or
sometimes in the basket SO carefully bal
anced upon the head. The baskets hardly
differ from those depicted on the walls of
the ancient tombs, and probably the
baby, entirely naked and it's eyes full of
black flies is much like what it's ances-
tors were in the days of the Pharaohs.
In the older quarters of the town the
scenes are much the same, only that
there is not SO much room for observing
them; for the streets are seldom wider
than Paternoster Row, and the traveller
who stops to look about him is roughly
jostled by Hindbad the porter, with his
heavy bale of carpets, or the uncle of
Aladdin, with his basketof copper lamps,
or the water-carrier, clanking his brazen
cups, with an immense skin slung round
his STOPPING shoulders.

Refinement.

Refinement is not fastidiousness. 1t is
not luxury. 1t is nothing of this kind.
1t is far removed from excess or waste.
A person who is truly refined will not
squander or needlessly consume anything.
Refinement, on the contrary, is always
allied to simplicity and judicious and
tasteful employment of the means of the
good and happiness which it has at COM
mand. 1t seeks to divest itself of super
fiuities, and aspires continually to the
utmost purity. Refinement leads to
personal cleanliness and elegant neatness,
good taste and simplicity to dress. Ali
''loudness' or fashiness is repugnant to
its spirit. In it's home and surround
ings, the same chasteness and natural
grace are maintained. The abode Of
genuine refinement and a mere pretend
er to it are very different In the former
you will find no excess, gaudiness or
false glitter; but the latter abounds in
them. In personal manner, refinement
is most conspicuous. A man of refine
ment is always polite without effeminacy
and considerate without stiffness. Dis
play and ceremony are identical without
refinement like that of the heart, which
impels its possessor to show on all occa-
sions regard for the feelings of others.
No adherence to etiquette can compare
with it for the spontaneous observance
Of true and gratifying politeness. -Nev

Hard Times on the Pacific Stone.

A leading New York banker has lust
returned from a trip to the far west.
He makes some interesting statements
about matters and things in California.
If it can afford any comfort to strug-
CLING humanity on the Atlantic slope to
know that others are quite as bad off as
themselves, the general statement of af-
fairs on the Pacific Coast will be refresh
ing. This is the year Of drouth; the
second known since California was set
tied. Southern California is an ash
heap. The Sonoma, Sonora and Sacra-
mento Valleys are burned to crisp. In
one rancho twenty-five thousand sheep
were killed because they could not be
fed. There will be no relief until the
new crops come next year.
The shadow of hard times covers the
mining interests like a pail. Hundreds
are out of employment. Any sort of la
Dor is thankfully accepted. In San Fran
cisco thousands throng the streets, aim
less, idle, begging for work. The gamb-
ling houses are crowded. 1t is a meas
uring cast to a man who has a dollar
whether he shall buy bread with it OF
push it on a card, that it may drop into
the dealers till. Collaborating Stocks
have deprecated twenty, and even thirty
per cent, owing to assessments made
upon them. This is especially true of
the celebrated Ophir stock. Men who
were millionaires the other day find it
hard enough to get breed.
Young men of education and culture
are found tending bar, waiting and tend
ing at hotels, washing dishes, doing
chamberwork, and anything they can
lay their hands on. Just now the STAN
pede is for Arizona. A thousand en-
igrants started the other week, where the
precious metal can be had for the taking
Men who work on farms get low wages
with severe toll. The breakfast is taken
at four in the morning and supped at ten
at night. There are few barns, and the
grain and hay are stacked out of doors
Some of the burrows are twelve miles
long, and four burrows are plowed at q
time
