Our Gain OF lid from EupoDe.

The Official staten ent OF imports and exports
OF specie has just ,Jeen tinislei at the Treas
ury department The statement in regard to
goid shows that during the last fiscal year the
net imports Of gold to the United States
amount TO Si7, 15s,331, a larger gain than ever
before IN the history OF the country. The
ngureS In regard to the exports and imports Of
silver are not as complete as is desired, but they
are sufficiently full to show that the United
states exported much more silver than 1t I'M
ported. The officers OF the Treasury depart
ment DO not expect that our gain in gold for
the present year will be as much as in the last.
The crops in Europe are much better, and the
grain crop in Russia is only a partial failure,
instead OF a complete one. as has been hereto
fore report ed France and England will buy the
most OF cur foreign exported grain and bread
stuffs. There are now atlOat on the way to
this country TWO millions in gold for the SETTLE
ment OF balances due the United States, and
this amount VIII be increased as the fall ship
meGts are made. AS stated. however, our i'm
ports In gold VII! not reach the figures Of last
year. 1t Is estimated that they will be between
forty and fifty millions dollars.

Fractional Currency vs.. Small
Silver.

TIE QUESTION OF CHANGE FOR THE PEOPLE.
Several members of Congress have within
the past month or six weeks been asking in
formation at the Treasury department in re-
gard to the fractional currency formerly In use,
as compared with the fractional silver, which
has taken It's place. This information is asked
with view to awakening an effort TO secure
legislation authorizing the reissue Of the old
OF late a somewhat general demand over the
country for fractional notes. The principal rea-
son urged In behalf OF reissue Is that the notes
were transmitted through the mails without
difficulty. silver Is not; and postage stamps
do not make an acceptable substitute
for the fractional currency in that par
ticuar. The paper currency was much
more popular than the coin Is. This is
shown by the Treasury accounts. Fractional
currency when 1t was atioat only came into the
Treasury for redemption when II was mutiated
With fractional silver 1t is different. None OF
it has been coined since 1875: but 1t will be re-
membCred that before the passage Of the act
for it's redemption, last year, the market was
glutted with small silver. IL was at a discount
IN some localities The act providing for its
ment Of the fiscal year 1879. at that time
there were but 50 9GG0,000 OF the coin In the
Treasury; now there are S29 600, 900. the prin-
cipal difficulty that viii be found 10 the way of
the attempt to reissue fractional currency Will
come from the silver men. There cannot be
both fractional currency and fractional silver.
The former would drive the latter out OF circu-
latiOn. AS the silver men do not brook any
Interference with their favOrite medium OF Cir
culatiOD, they may be safely put down as In
aims against reissue OF fractional currency.
