The Andre Monument, which Mr..
Cyrus w. Field, apparently in order to
please Dean StanIy, some time ago or
dered to be made. was put in its place
on Traitors Hill, Tappan, on Thursday
last, on the ninety ninth anniversary of
Major Andres execution. The memorial
shaft was erected on the very spot
where Andre was hnng. The monument
is of Maine granite, six feet eight inches
high, and bears apnropriate iDscripti ons
on all four sides. The placing and dedica.
tion OF the monument was witnessed by
Mr.. Field and several rePrese natives OF
historical societies. The New York
Herald, in speaking of the occasion, re-
marks that "now honor has been done
to the memory of gentleman who was
nevertheless an enemy and spy, per
haps some Of our millionaires Will place

ten graves of some of our conntry's d,

The use of pager as material for boots,
also for the wheels of railroad cars,
whore something very stontis required,
now has become an old story but some
of the marvel il first excited may we'll
be tran feTred To a new use of glass for
the sleepers of railroad tracks. AS a
fact, glass as toug hened under the recent
process, Is used at STAFFORD, England,
for railroad sleepers, the upper side be-
ing grooved to hold the rail. These
slrepers are cheap and certain not To
rot. We sometimes fancy the surprise
of our great gaandfathers, IN coming u
life again from the stage coach era, to
find the earth girlded with tracks for
! steam locomotion. We need not go &c
far hack-we need only imagine the
wonder of more recently by gone ger
eration at finding rowboa,s and ca
wheels made of paper, and railway tie

A more touching illustration Of bro
therly love and neighborly appreciation
has rarely been displayed than that
man tested by Mary's Commandery,

beautiful memorial which, as q work Of
art, possesses unusual merit The me
mortal in question, which, by The way,
was executed by the well-known author
and publisher in Scotland, Mr.. John
Tweed, embraces an extract from the

der date Of March 70, 1878, i'll acknow-
ledgment of resolutions passed by St.
Johns Commapdery relative TO the sud-
den demise of the eminent Sir Robert
Bell. Fraternally desirous corresponding
to this sympathetic expression OF SORROW
under such bereaving circumstances, st.
Mary's Ccmmandery adopted this appro-
pirate form of testimonial, which con-
tains the speeches made on the occasion
alluded to by Sir w. f. Shaw, and Sir
j. A. Ferguson. The memorial is
frnged by an ornamental border con;
tanning portrait Of St. Mungo and re-
markably handsome views of the far
famed Melrose and kilwinnery Abbeys

GOLD STILL continues to pour into
New York from Europe. When 1t will
stop no one seems to know. All the pre-
dictions that the gold in this country |
would take wings and fly away to |
Europe if the Bland Silver Bill were
passed has faded away amid other lies
that the blackguards uttered against the |
gentlemen who favored silver as a cur
rency. The 'fools and knaves" of the
Hou'e of Representatives who voted for
the Bland bill, and silver as a legal ten
der, and the "consummate fools" of the
Senate who voted the same way, may
laugh to scorn the corrupt blackguards
who heaped such epithets upon their po-
litical wisdom and patriotic efforts in
favor of the "dollar of the fathers" In
stead of gold being driven away, it is
more likely to become drug in our
market. But more glaring exhibition
OF the want of sagacity, if possible, is
the other fact that the "cheap silver
of Germany and England with which
our country was to be inundated has not
made its appearance in the ''hundreds OF
millions" that the opponents Of silver
currency predicted would be the result
of making the silver dollar legal ten
der. So far as we have seen there las
not been hundred thousand dollars of
silver shipped to this country since the
passage of the Bland Bill. We should
never have referred to this matter per
haps to call the attention Of our readers
to 1t, If it had not been for the ungentle-
manly epithets hurled at the advocates
of gold and silve. currency, and the dis
gusting ignorance that manifested itself
in people who assumed to know all that
was worth knowing but who in real
truth in want of wisdom quite accurately
portraye! the fable of the "ass in tie
lions skin"
The movement Of gold to tue United
States is novelty in the experience o
the country, and deserves especial atten
tion. There is scarcely day that we ar,
not informed of millions of it arriving
OF on the way, or about to depart pc
steamer from Europe for New York. Th,
amount of gold that entered the port O
New York during the month of August
and In September up to the 27th; til
latest date, in the data from which tn
amount is made up, was $685., ,SS1 l
August, and to S26,d2l ,669 in September
Or to $32,Goj,55O for the two months
or this sum, S27,s74,S87 was in bsl

in American gold coin.

The effect of the possession of a lar

10 raise the credit of our people in
foreign countries; especially in cou
tries whose circulating medium is sill,
