G. always stood toI a currency based on

Scion Chdse's Steers.
Grand Collapse al the Grssnbaek Plat
form.
IFrOm The Lewiston JOurnAl,l


An Auburn gentleman was talking with
a townsman Of the great greenback lead
er on Friday at the Maine Central
depot Just before the arrival of train,
and Scion Chase Esq, stood near by.
"Mr. Bearce." said the Auburn man
''your neighbOr has won wide reputa'
ton; have you ever seen those wonder
fully shrunken steers which he describes
in I'll Of his speeches as being worth 500
two years ago, and now contracted to
$50" "0h, yes :" said the Turner gen.
tleman, Il sm personally acquainted with
his steers as well as with himself"
don't you think that they are under
valued at S50-the amount he states
they have dwindled to in two years p
Il would willingly give him 500 for
them, replied Mr. Bearce.
The Auburn gentleman after further
conversation requested Mr.. Bearce to try
and bargain for the steers with their own
or. Mr.. B. complied, aud the Auburn
gentleman relates that the following
scene occurred between the Turner farm
ers
Mr. Bearco.-"Mr. Chase, what will
YOU ,lke for your steers ?"
Mr CnaSe-"I don't know a. | care
TO sci, them at present"
Mr. FL will give you Que hundred
dollars for them, anyhow; and II they
look as well as they did when | last saw
them | will give YOU SllO." Mr. Chase,
VINO had persistsntly advertised his steers
at $50. far and wide, declined to trade
and the sentleman's offer remained unac-
ccptei. Solons teuder attachment for
his faithful steers and their pathetic
shrinkage overpOwered the love of gain
which Is supposed to be inherent in all
mortal breasts and this rock, the found
alton upon which rested the weight Of the
greenbGck structure, has crumbled, and
the omens would seem to indicate that
the himsiiy constructed movement will
collapse IN consequence.
