The origin Of the fractional currency,
which has been ia tho past few years
superseded by fractional silver, Is some.
what peculiar and not generally known.
TIE appearance Of this currency, which
at first was always spoken Of as 'frostal
currency, wss due 10 the premium ON
specie.
In 1862 small change became very
acarco. Gold icing up and taxing
with il silver, these coins disappeared
from circulation. Stockings we're
brought out, aud tie precious metals
found their way into the heels and the
toep.
l. was more than day'e search to
find iiye-eens silver piece OF any other
small denomination Of that coin. Peo.
pie could not find exchange f5r anntli
transactions. Ia buying dinner IN
the market, change had 10 be taken in
brets, tnrniir, cabbages, potatoes aud
what not.
General Spinner WIS then Treasurer
Of the United States. lie was coz.
stantIy appealed to from alI quarters 70
do something 70 supply the demand Tor
small change. LIS had no law under
which hc could at, but after buying a
balf-dollarn worth OF apples several
times aud receiving for his half-,lollar
in change more or lcss different kinds
Of produce, be began to cast around for
a substitute Tor small change.

This was not, ho~eyet, government
transaction IN any sense IL could not
be. General Spinner distributed his i'm
proyiscl currency among the clerks Of
the department. Tney took it readily,
aud the trade folks more readily. The
idea spread; the postage stamps, either
detached or pasted upon llece OF pa
per, became the mclium Of small *
change. It was Dubbed "postai cnrren-
cy."
From this General Spinner got lis
idea Of fractional currency and went to
Congress with It. That body reality

TAKE a PAPER.

Nothing presents sadder comment
ary upon the present condition OF soei-
ETY. than the large humber of families,
both in town and country, but more
especially the latter, that subscribe to
no paper of any kind. Hundreds and
thousands of families are thus growing
up utterly ignorant of what is tlansnir-
ing in the world around then,-ignor-
ant of the mighty events Of the day.
Bnt who can tell the vast amount of
injury that Is being inflicted ON the ris-
ing generation-those who are to take
our place in the busy world at no dist
ant growing mp without any
knowledge of the present or the past,
this ignorance, too, being imbued into
them by the sanction of those who
should, and doubtless do, know better
did they only think of the injurious
eiieots Of their insane course. Let the
head of every family think of this, anG
place in the hands Of those for whom h,
is responsible the means of acquiring
some knowledge of the moving pano
rama in which we act our diffegen
parts.--Good Words.
