UNIFORMITY OF COINS.

The various coins of the nations of the
earth are numbered by the thousands. A
catalogue of them fills closely printed
quarto volume of sixty-four pages. Much
loss and still greater Inconvenience is en-
tailed upon the people of every country
by the multiplicity ofcoiLs. As civiliza-
ton progresses and is rapidly embracing
the most remote regions Of the earth, y
movement toward uniformity becomes
more and more desirable, and is likely
ere long to be made in earnest. The
French Academy has taken the lead in
the agitation of this important matter.

and measures. II is suggested that the
coins of all nations be made Of uniform
size. weight and value. and that all bear,
in figures Of the Arabic notation. the
same mark Of values, while retaining Of
course the emblems and devices Of the
country from which they eminate. Such
a consummation will be most desirable.

There was another party held Oh the

Writing of His Own RObberies.

Henry Sherbaln, of Middletown, Pa, a
writer for the Harrisburg independent,
has been taken to the penitentiary sen
fenced to a term Of one year for larceny.
For several months past MiddlctOwn had
been greatly annoyed by midnight rob-
berries, and no clue could be obtained to the
perpetrators. All of these rObberies were
chronicled by Sherbahn in his newspaper
correspondence, and his accounts were
surprisingly accurate. A few weeks ago
an account of a robbery at Middlctown,
appeared in the independent over Sher-
bahn's signature, and the crime was not
discovered by the owner of the property
until he had read of it in the paper and
made an investigation. After that Shcr-
balm was suspected and watched. He was
seen coming out of store ut an early hour
and the proprietor discovered that it had
been robbed. An account appeared in the
paper and Sherbahn was at once arrested.
He confessed his crimes before he was
tried.
