IN the Washington Say, ex.Minister
Stoughton Is represented as saying lately
that while his salary at St. Petersburg was
Sl7, 500 a year, it cost him twice thu: sum
to live there. and that the same state Of
things was true OF someoi the other more
important foreign iaions,-notabIy those
to the governments Of France and Eng.
land. He is also reported as saying that
the duties Of those positions are purely Of
a social character, the real intellectual
work connected with them not requiring
n weeks time in a whole year,
II these things be true,-and Mr..
Stoughton must certainly be competent
authority on the points cited,-it is clearly
the duty otthe United States Government
TO do one OF three things, viz: LIST, either
double the salary attached to the Offices
named; I'd. all them with very rich men,
irrespective Of their fitness for the places
or, Sd. abolish them entirely. The last
proposition is the one that the public At
large will most likely endorse. There is a
growing conviction in the American mind
that these offices are OF no nse, and that
they really have nothing to do. And this
opinion seems to be held also by some
OF those tunctionaries themselves, II
We may judge by the manner in
which they spend a large part Of their
time. An American citizen travel.

As THE Maine canvass proceeds, Repub.
lican prospects continue to improve vast.
ly, according to reports from the most
trustworthy sources. Republican meet.
ings are very numerous and are largely
attended. The Boston 4dryrtinr says
there has been a revival Of Republican
interes; TO an extent thu; fairly Surprises
the managers Of the canvass. Apparently
the GreenbaekeB are less confident than
last year. Their sggressiyeness, has
wholly disappeared because there is
nothing to say In q few localities,
where the paper money lunSey did not
show itself alarmingiy last year, it is hav-
ing little run this season, but in many
parts Of the State it is now on hedecrease.
A few cases are reported OF men who have
always been Democrats coming out boldly
for the Republican ticket; and there are
more examples Of former Democrats who
voted the Greenback ticket in 1878 who
will this year return to the fold and vote
for Gareelon. The Adrsrd~r believes,
however, that these will be more than of
set in numbers by other Democrats who
will change this year from Gareelon to
Smith, the Greenback candidate. Re
publicans have made large gains in the
shape OF reeonverted Republicans. The
AdOe4iHr predicts that between now and
election day there will be something like
3 stampede back into the Republican
ranks.

The paper currency Of France consists
Of $~4SO,bOO,OOO Of the notes Of the Bank
Of Fnnce-a corporation owned by Pri-
ate capitalists. The notes are not legal
tender, but are redeemable in coin on
demand. The paper currency amounts
to 81 per inhabitau; Of France. 50 much
Of it As the Bank can probably loan out
is kept in circulation. and the remainder
STAYS in the Bank and its branches await
ing use. Tie paper currency Of this u
Try amounu to $50 millions; something
over half oft ia legaLtender and redeem
able in coin. The rest is National Bank
notes redeemable in greenbaeks or coin al
the pleasure oil the bank. Our paper cir.
culation is about SIS per capita, or one
quarter larger per head than the paper
money Of France. This being the TACT,
the question is asked, what becomes Of
the allegation Of the inhationists that our
people are being starved to death for the
lack Of paper money? it is admitted by
them that France is abundantIy supplied
with paper, and, 5 We have . per cent
more than the French per head, how can
it be true that this country is shot Of
paper currency?

TIE Chicago TabmS thinks the heaviest
blow the waiting ambition Of Tom Ewing
has received is the immense quantity OF
wheat to the straw the thresher are dnd'
in Ohio. He gets another serious setback
in the big oa, and barley crop now being
cat, and, from present appearances, the
0 crop viii flash oil his chances at the
ids Of October. Napoleon said tia:
Providence was usually on the side Of the
heaviest battalions. Providence seems to
be on the side of Charley Foster this
campaign, d Euing's stock in trade has
been short crops and business s~tagnation,
for which lie ha been in the habit OF
holding the Republican panty responsible
on the stump. When the crops are good
and times improving this ~demagogue Is
deprived Of POcket-nerve issues, and gets
scooped At the polls.

GLORY" TOBACCO

Owing to the increased demand and the i'm
menSe popularity Of the above celebrated
goods some dealers are selling inferior to-
bancos and representing them as the "G!oryr
brand. IcIaim the GLORY" as my exclusive
trade marx in this market for plug tobacco,
and no one has a right to represent other
as being the same. Each lump has a
gold tag with the word "GORY" upon it, and
none other is genuine, as it Is positively snld
under no other brand in this city.
