GENTLEMAN who went to the United
States treasury last week to draw
$1,000 in interest, entitled to gold coin
on the same, expressed a prefere nee
for greenbacks, which were paid him
instead of gold. Such items help to
swell the coin reserve for resumption.
Greenbacks are much more con-
venient for circulating medium than
GOLD, and if gold stands at their back
as a guarantee of their value, are
preferable to coin.

To demand a private examination
upon the statement that II did not ex-
pect to teach at the time of the regu-

siderably upon our (assumed) creduli-

last years standard excuse, s'father

during 1876. viz, 81 was sick that

of those who habitually have attended
private examination. If teacher is
sick or discharged during term time, a
private examination may be necessary
to obtain good successor. We can
think of no other case. 1t is often
convenient for nonresident teachers.
