Members of the County Committee

Failure to pay tax in season de-

Col. SNowDEN, the Superintendent
of the Mint at Philadelphis, in a
recent speech before the Wholesale
Grocers' Association, illustrated in n
practical manner the difference
between coin and paper as medium of
exchange. He said:
81 had recently two pieces of money
handed to me-one Roman gold
coin, nearly 1000 years old, the other
a Continental piece of money, nomin-
ally of the value of fifty-nine pounds,
based upon the wealth of this nation.
The latter note, signed by my great
grandfather as Com missioner under
Congress, representing the infancy OF
the grandest and most wealthy nation
on earth, is literally worth nothing,
preserved only as a curiosity. The
former | threw into a crucible and
subjected it to the white heat of the
furnace, and it came out all aglow
with value that time or fire could not
eface, and with the stamp of any gov
ernmeut upon it, it would still repre-.
sent wealth, and be true medium oi
exchange, or a basis Of value upon
which to rest the issues of promises tc
pay"

SOME years since, it was discovered
by the authorities Of railway in Ger
many that barrel which, on being dis
patched from certain station, contain
ed silver coin, had during the journey to
its destination been empted of its con-
tents and filled with sand. For some
time no clue to the perretrator of the
robbery could be discovered but at
length, learned professor having been
consulted on the subject, called in the
aid of microscope. And .his was how
the thief was found. The professor
knowing that, even though in the very
minutest degree, there WAS a distinctive
difference in the sand found near the va
rious stations along the railway lines,
sent for samples of it frcm each Of the
places through which the train containing
the silver com Lad passed. With the
microscope he then carefully examined
each sample, compared it with the sand
found in the barrel, and thus identified
the station from which the latter had
been procured. Having in this ingenius
manner found out the station he wanted,
little difficulty remained for the railway
servants employed at 1t, by one of whom
the robbery had been committed, were so
few in number that the culprit vas read

A LITTLE BEGGAR's CHARITY Tho
Pittsburg Telegraph tells a touching
begging story, with good moral. A
young man who had been on threo
days debauch wandered into the read ng
room Of q hotel, where he was well known
sat down, and stared moodily into tho
street. Presently little girl of about
ten years came in and looked timidly
about the room. She was dressed in
rags, but she had sweet, intelligent face
that could scarcely fail to excite sympa-
thy. There were five persons in the
room, and she went TO each begging,
One gentleman gave her five cent piece
and she then went to the gentleman spok-
on OF and asked him for penny,
adding, II haven't had anything to eat
for q whole day" The gentleman was
out of huMor, and he said, Grossly, Don't
bother me; go away l haven't had
anything to eat for three days" Tho
child opened her eyes in shy wonder and
stared ut him a moment, and then walked
slowly toward the door. She turned tho
knob, and then after hesitating few
seconds, walked up to him, and gently
laying tho FIVE cents she had received on
his knee, said with tone Of true girlish
pity in her voice: "If you haven't had
anything TO eat fer three days, you take
this and go and buy some bread. Per-
haps l can get some more somewhere"
The young fellow blushed 10 the roots OF
his hair, and lifting he Sister of Char ity
in his arms, he kissed her two or three
times in delight. Then he took her to
the persons in the room, and to those in
the corridors and in the office, and told
the story and asked contributions, giving
himself all the money he had with him
lie succeeded in raising over $40, and
sent the little one on her way rejoicing.

SINGULAR PARADOX.

A curious essay has recently been
written for the purpose of showing that
the steady improvement in the range
and efficiency of warike weapons has
been followed, not, MS would naturally
be supposed, by an increased number OF
killed and wounded in battle, but by n
diminution so complete, that an inverse
ratio may be said to exist between the
two, SO That an addition to the ability to
kin is, paradox ically, followed by pro-
portionately smaller number of killed -
1t is beyond dispute that the old time
hand to-hand encounters were sanguinRry
in the extreme, and it was no uncommon
thing for the warriors Of those days to
fight on until more than half of theil
number had fallen. With the first in.
PRODUCTION of firearms II sensible falling
off in the number Of killed and wounded
took plnce, and the contraction continued
as the rife and then tho breech loader
successfully took the place of the smooth
bore, Intil now tho experience in the
Franco German and tho Turco Russian
Wars proves that only about 10 per cont
OF those engaged arc placed h01S dt
combat even in the severest encounters
The reason given for this surprising
change is one not wholly creditable to
the human race, and that is, that soldier,
nowadays have more tender regard fol
their personal safety than they once had
Each side knows that the other possessed
facilities that can be employed with
murderous effect, if a favorable opportu
nifty for their use is gwen, and this con
viction has tendency to make both Off
GERS and men very reluctant to permit o
the slightest exposure. The msdern
system Of advancing upsn an enemy
ine in sose and open order, so that each
man can take advantage Of the stumps
trees and hillocks which chance throws
in his way, is an admission that th'
lives of tho soldiers are not to be useless
ly sacrificed, which the soldiers them
selves are not slow to perceive ant
hence each one limits the risks to which
he puts his individual life with the ut
most care. 1t would, perhaps, be strain
ing at a conclusion to say that this doubl,
progress will eventually land us in con
diton in which wars will be practically ly
impossible, but it certainly points tina
way, and, more than this, it seems to b.

CLOTHING THoUGuTs. The difficulty
Of properly clothing ones thoughts in
language is as common an occurrence
with writers MS it is veXhtious. Many
stories are told of authors and the expe-
dients they have resorted to to overcome
these temporary difficulties. Here is one

qualntest humorist of the eighteenth
century: Nov, in ordinary eases, that

or a stride or two across the room will not
do the business for me, l take razor at

the palm of my hand, without further
ceremony, except Of first lathering my
beard, shave it off, taking care only, if

one. This done, change my shirt, but
on better coat, send for my last wig put
ny topaz ring on my finger, and, in a
word, dress myself from one end to the
ether of me, after my best fashion. Now,
the dovl in he'll must be in it if this will
not do. a man cannot dress, but his
IDEAS get clothed at the same time, and If
he dresses like gentlemen, every one Of
them stands presented to his Imagination
genteelizing along with him, so that he
has nothing to do but to take a pen and
write for bimselfU
