The Red Cent.

We have SO few old things in this very
new country, that the history of the large
copper cent, now withdrawn from circu-
lation, and very rarely seen, should not
be without interest. 1t is, as every body
knows, contraction Of centum, and Is 80
called because it is the htndredth part
of dollar. 1t WAS suggested by Robert
Morris, the famous tinancier, to whom
the struggling colonies were SO much IN
debted for their independence, but got
It's name from Thomas Jefferson. The
cent made its first appearance IN New
Haven, under act of congress, in l7S7,
and the same year Massachusetts authorl2-
ed coins of like value and issued them. 1t
was not set out by the mint Of Phlla-
delphia until 1892, when it was decorated
with the head of Washington on one side
and thirteen stars on the other. The
French revolution created a furore here,
with such partiality for French notions
that the Goddess of Liberty was substi-
tuted for the first president of the COM
monwealth, and IN olive wreath for the
chain of stars. The goddess was very
French in semblance, having a long,
propendent neck, with grandly flowing
locks She was succeeded i'll due time by
severer lady of freedom, having
Grecian features and a fillet around her
hair. Our coinage has never been re-
markable for the excellence of its dies.
The figures on all of it are far from what
they ought to be, and reflect very small
credit on our artistic execution. The
head on the present small cent, for III
stance, is not only clumsy, it is ambigu-
Gus. Very few persons know whether it
was intended for the goddess of liberty
or for one of aboriginals. 1t might be
either or both, and the cunning designer
may purposely have so left it that we can
have it, as becomes free citizens, exactly
as we choose. -NeaO York Times.

hastily departed. Only one ventured to
remain, and Droz requested him to ask

remarked that the negro had not learned

HIGH HOPES THAT BURN.

High hopes that burn like stars sublime,
Go down the skies of freedom,
And true hearts perish in the time
We bitterest need 'em;
But never sit we down and say,
.There's nothing left but sorrow"
We walk the wilderness to-day
The promised land tomorrow.
Our birds Of song are silent now;
There are no flowers blooming;
But life burns in the frozen bough,
And freedoms spring is coming!
And freedoms tide comes up Away,
Though we may stand in sorrow,
And our good hs.. :. aground to-day,
Shall float again tomorrow.

Michigan VS.. Kansas.

Most of our readers being Mich
igan people, they are able to Judge
for themselves what this country
is without any hints from us, SO
we will just give the little story
as related to us few days since,
by a resident Of Kansas: Eyes,
| have lived ia Kansas about ten
years, but have rented my lands
now, and will not get them back
again till next fall. Queer, coun-
try, that Kansas, yet | manage to
live there all right, but it is a
gloomy country for poor man,
with no capital to commence with.
"But ! mnst tell you what a
time we had there once with a
blizzard 1t was in the spring,
and the weather was cold, when
one day there came up a terrible
storm OF rain, hail, snow and wind,
and the very earth seemed to groan
under the frightful commotion.
The wind blew for keeps, and in
less than an hour every window in
the house was broken in, the out
side doors torn from their hinges,
and the chimney blown from the
roof. Looking off across the fields,
] saw that my son-in-law's house
had entirely disappeared. There
fore, after securing the folks at my
own place as best ] could, | started
out to aid, if possible, those who
had just been rendered homeless.
On the road | met the family, con-
sisting of husband, wife and two
children. They could not tell how
they ever escaped from the house.
All they knew about it was that
the building had been literally torn
to pieces, and that they had es-
capped unframed. My son said that
l had better hurry on, as there was
a party Of immigrants in the little
grove, that they had had their
wagon overturned by the storm,
and a young boy had been killed
by the misshap. / went on, and
after doing all I could for the par
ty, took them to the shelter OF my
own house, made almost like o
seive by the wind.
"But there was a distressing !
scene only a mile across the coun-
try. A house containing three
families had been unroofed, ono
end built mostly Of coble stone, had
nearly all fallen in, and the inmates
were frightened nearly to death.
A man went off for assistance, but
before he succeeded in bringing aid,
the inmates of the house had, for |
fear that the remains of the old
building would fall upon them,
been forced to the open prairie
outside, where they were exposed
to the wind and snow. When as
sistance arrived, seven Of the I'M
fortunate ones had been chilled to
death, while two more children
died in a few hours; for the cold

There is at present some talk OF

ship. The location is a good one,
and we believe that section Of the
country surrounding the proposed
mill site is abundantly able to sus-
tain such an enterprise after once
established, and that il would not
be far in the future ere it would
become an enterprise that would
pay we'll for the investment. II
our ideas are correct in this re-
gard, all interested in the prosper
ity Of that part Of the country,
should encourage the enterprise by
