AN APT ILLUSTRATION.

In his speech at Cooper Institute,
New York, last week, Secretary
EYarts made use of the following
homely illustration:
4" dare say that We all remember
that IN our childhood every nov aud
then, the children in the nursery used
10 petition their mother to be allowed
TO play grocery store, and there thew
had nothing but fiat money. Laugh
ter. They drew upon their mother
for thes sugar and the pIums and the
raisins and the oranges and made a
great array Of groceries. and then each
customer among the infant band made
their money In shape, and in denomi-
nation and value, To suit themselves.
Laughter. And that is exactly what
nat money Is to be. We are all to be
children, having our pockets full of
fiat money, which l. to be based upon
all the property of the United States.
just as THESE children's stock was based
upon the illinitable wealth of mann
mai But even this play OF fiat
money, although it never pro-
luced financial distress or reverses,
had some i'll results. When you buy
groceries with fiat money, and they
are all OF the edible kind, you are apt
to eat too much of it. And SO the
nursery was soon distressed with the
winding up of the fiat money by ex-
pansiOn OF the stomach aud contrac-
ton of the bowels. Laughter And
finally, mamma intervened, as the
good Providence will have to do for
US, and took in hand the grocery and
the statesmen and all the customers,
and put them to bed, with a good dose
OF rhubarb and magnesia, put out the
fiat system, and they did not try it
again until they had forgotten it's
pangs. Well, il we can have a good
Providence to take care of our conn
meree and see that all the property of
the United States comes forward inst
as it is needed by everybody that
wants the money, we will get along a
little while, until the whole nation,
sick st head and faint at heart, comes
back to good paper money convertible
into gold and silver, and gold and
silver as the money OF its trade"

Tue Revenue Laws.
GREENEVILLE, y

GREENRVILLE, Oct. 81.
Mr.. EDITOR: In the morning
CHRONICLE | see large number of
committals and severe penalties in
flicted upon persons who have been
engaged in illicit whisky distilling
and whisky traffic. We all know
that the revenue laws are very arbi-
trary laws, and of necessity they
must be so, but this is not the mat
ter l wish to call attention to. To-
day we have men and political par
tisans all over the country openly
denouncing the Revenue Depart
ment of the United States Governs
ment and unfortunately all
officers who in any way are directly
or indirectly doing their lawful duty
in collecting the revenue of the
Government.
To-day the Democratic candidate
of the First Congressional District
is denouncing his opponent in every
speech he makes, simply because he
is United States Attorney, and,
of necessity, those who are commit
ting fraud on the Government by
illicit distilling have to come in the
court wherein he is employed by the
Government, Major Pettibone is
no more a revenue officer than the
United States Judge on the bench,
nor are the United States Commits
sioners. Their duties are general
as to matters coming before the
United States Courts, and it little
becomes a candidate for Congress
to be speaking over the country
with seditious language denouncing
the laws and the officers of the
Government. If few indictments
were preferred against such men
and the law did it's duty, there
would be less countenance given to
Illicit distilling, and reasonable
tongues would be put to silence.

On the 18th ultimo preparations were
made for taking down the upper portions Of
two massive granite pedestal which stand
on each side OF the spot ON which the ODE

been carried on satisfactorily for the space
to be occupied by floor Of concrete Of
great solidity and strength, destined to sup
port the weight Of the obellsk and its mas

making this foundation will be borne BY
Mr.. Dixon, the contractor. The other ex-
penses will be borne by the Metropolitan
Board Of Works, including G., 800. the cost
Of two Sphinxes, which are to be placed on

this century. for raising the obelisk upon
its ped.staIs, was simply that of hauling

A STOLEN GI RI.
An Appeal from Her Agonlzed
Parents.

A family of movers named Burr, en route
from Michigan to Southwest Missouri,
while encamped at n point about seven
miles and half west Of Rolla, Missouri,
last November, had their youngest child, q
girl twelve years old, stolen by worthless
tramp whom they had Overtaken somewhere
in Missouri, and who had requested and
been granted permission to accompany
them. The parents traced their child 70 a
place about three miles east of Carthage,
some four weeks ago, where all traces Of her
and her abductor were lost. The supposl-
ton was that the villain was trying to
reach the Short Creek lead mines, as he
made frequent inquiries along the route in
regard to this point but the disconsolate
parents, who are IN Galena, X have as vet
learned nothing which will furnish any
clae to the recovery Of the abducted girl.
The unfortunate girls name is Permilia
Rose Einor Burr. but her parents have
learned that since she has been in the
clutches Of this scoundrel, he has compelled
her TO assume the name Of Ellen. He has
represented TO different parties that this
mere child was his wife, whom he was
obliged to take away from her home on ac-
count Of the ill-treatment she received from
her parents. She has been compelled by him
to beg their living while wandering from
place to place, and on several occasions he
has cruelty beaten her. She is described
az follows: Light complexion. light brown
hair, very large blue eyes, and her face,
when she is in health, Is oval. The villain
il described as being about FIVE feet ten
inches in height, rather slender built, with
very curly, black hair, somewhat gray, and
was shabbily dressed al the time.
Any one having Information which
might lead to restoring this child to hel
grief stricken parents. will please communi
cate with them either at Galena or Enpir
City, where they will remain about twt
weeks, or until some clue is furnished as Il
her whereabouts. Besides being an age,
couple, they are in almost destitute circnm
stances, and are, Of course. unable to prose
cute the search rs it should be done. II !
to be earnestly hoped that charitable an,
sympathizirg public will give such as
sistance as lies in their power towards re
storing the girl to her almost distracie,
parents, and in bringing this diabo.ic,
.coundrel to the punishment he so richl
deaerves.
Papers throughout this State and Texa
will please publish this notice, and receiv
the blessings of
