Let US now examine which of these OPP
posing opinions has been proved to be
true by the test of experience. The sue
cess of resumption depended entirely
upon the ability of the United States, by
the time fixed, TO accumulate in the treas.
ury an amount of coin sufficient TO meet
any demands likely to he made upon it,
This coin could only be obtained by sur
plus revenue, or by the sale of United
States bonds, full authority for which was
given by the resumption act In April,
1877, it was announced by the admins
tration that from the first of May the
treasury department would accumula g
coin at the rate of S5,000,000 a month, an.
accordingly that sum was set aside from
the sale Of a, per cent. bonds up to the
he list of July. The very announcement
for the purpose TO resume, with definite
plan of resumption, at once had reviv-
ing effect upon the public credit, increas
ing the sale Of Al, per cent. bonds. This
induced the treasury department. on the
2od day of May, 1877, TO withdraw the Al ,
per cent, bonds, and on the 9th of June

DEBT WAS BEING INCREASED.
The debt statement would necessarily
show that, during the three months, two
SETS of bonds were outstanding, but it
would show also that the money was in
the treasury, and this being deducted
would leave the balance of the debt as
before Thus, if you owe a thousand
dollars with the right to pay it at your
pleasure, aid borrow money for that pur-
pose, YOU will have two notes outstand-
ing at the same time until you can apply
the borrowed money to the payment of
the first note. The secretary then showed
how resumption had increased the pros.
peritv of private business oy diminish
ing the rate Of interest and facilitating
investments. The state of New York
has, by law, reduced the rate of interest
in that state from to per cent. The
city of Providence sold Al per cent.
bonds at above par. The state of Penn.
sylvania sold $2OOO000 per cent bonds
ut above par. The city of New York sold
) per cent. bridge-honds at 1856 rs. Five
million dollars of Denver and Rio
Grande railway company per cent.
bonds were subscribed in two hours-the
first time for years that money has been
pledged for building railroad. All
securities have advanced since January
LIST AT the average rate of 10 per cent.
Mortgages at ltom to 10 per ceut are

The Man Who Makes a Newspaper.

Howard Owen, of the Kenebec,
(Me.D Journal, has IA lecture on
The Man Who Makes IA Newspa.
per-" and in it he comes across
some first-rate ideas. Most people
imagine that newspapers is IA huge
fail with which certain individuals
are to be laShed. The person ON
whom the fail is to be used, Is very
multitudinous He may be a poor
actor, IA tiresome lecturer, ii dull
speaker, an uumuSical singer, a
troublesome neighbor, in fact any
one who happens to offend the man
who comes up to get the paper to
ago for him. Sometimes a per
son wishes to use the paper against
IA railroad company, the manage
ment of "a steamboat line, the city
council, or the United States gov
erment. A Detroit man left the
Free Press Office in high dudgeon
some time since because he was
not allowed to rake the Almighty,
in the columns of that paper. Mr..
Owen, gives the following letter
from a man who wanted the paper
delicately to insinuate that his
neighbor is not the most desirable
person in the world to live next to,
and who writes the following unob-
trusive uote: Here, Mr.. Editor,
please insert this item and oblige a
subscriber. "The rantankerOus
old curmudgeon, whose pestilential
influence poisons the Broad street,
has of late been been engaged in
questionable transactions tor the
purpose OF adding to his ill-gotten
gains. Murder is in the heart of
the pestiterons old cuss, but the
miserable blatherSkite lacks the
courage to execute it." Put that
in as an editorial and don't let any
one know who wrote it.

Poor Kathleen! the sense of

stood before the sweet Irish lake,
with wet splashes on her cheek
and Mrs. Arnott's cold, hard voice
sounding in her ears: " It's a great
pity to be obliged to 90 with these,
wild, untutored Irish"
Kathleen WAS just bringing up
the tray and Mrs. Arnott's words
sounded distinctly as she paused
on the top step to get breath.
"Of course, my de ar" said Mrs.
Tudor Andor, syinpathetically,
