daughter OF the host sat next to him at
table. and observed him with much curl

mark that "she was surprised to see hlm
so white; she had thought that AL Amerl-
cans were unprecedented" Soon ait'r'
some question arose respecting our
national currency. and my friend TOOK
from his pocket some specimens OF
our bank-no'cs, among which was one
bearing the portrait OF General washing.

In 1880 the Bible, the almanac, and the
few text books used in school were almost
the ONLY volumes OF the household. The
dictionary was volume four inches square
and an inch and 4 half i'll thickness. In
some OF tue country villages few public
spirited men had gathered libraries contain
Ing from three TO five hundred volumes; in
contrast, the public libraries OF the present,
containing more than ten thousand volumes,
have an aggregate Of 10,G50,000 volumes,
not including the Sunday.School and private
libraries Of the country. 1t. is estimated
that, altogether, the Eunb Der OF volumes ac-
cessiblc TO the public is not less than 2O.O00,-
600! OF Websier's and Worce>ter's die
tionaries it may be said that enough have
been published to supply Que to every one
hundred inhabitants OF the United States
May atlantic.
People who fancy that there's nothing
like imitation OF the currency in order 10
make good times should cmigrate to Buenos
Ayres, where wages are high and money
plenty. Mechanics receive as high as 500 a
day, laborers Sl5 ut least. The clerk who
would work for less than S20,0 per an
NUN would be a social outcast, while 49,.
900 is the reward of extra zeal and ability.
Every other man one meets is millionaire.
The explanation OF the exceptionally good
time enjoyed by the residents OF this South
American city is the fac. that the Govern
ment has issued paper irredeemabIe cur
rency. There is another side to the pic
turc OF course. The papcr-dolar is worth
about three cents in gold; single small
loaf OF bread costs IS. and cotton-cloth is
held at Sl5 a yard Chicago Times.
The Salem Sunbeam describes misery as
walking through dry-@oods stare where
there arc about fifty young lady clerks who
have nothing to do but look at you.
