The reserves of the state banks, the trust
companies snd the savings banks are placed
at a low t!ure and the private boarding,
which is considerable, is not taken into &C
count. If, therefore, Mr.. Burchard's figures
are approximately correct, it may confidently
be said that the volume of money available
for currency in the United States is less than
1888 ,OO0, 900, or $l6.66 per capita of a popu-
lation of 50,O0O,OOO.
The apparent smallness of this per capita
excites the suspicion that Mr.. Burchard has
underestimate the amount of cein IN the
country ; although our almost perfect internal
exchange system, through the network of the
national banks, with the aid Of the telegraph.
tn clearing houses, the railroads and rapid
mails, dispenses with the active use of an
enormous amount of money, which, without
these facilities, would be required. Be all
this as it may, the evidences of the sGpera-
bundance of money at the great business GEN.
ters are ample. Nevertheless, it is plain to
be seen that individual industries and trade,
in many sections of the country, are suffering
for the want of sufficient currency to pro-
mote their exchanges; and this leads to the
conclusion, that, while the volume of money
in the United States is large enough for all
legitimate purposes, there is lacking All equi-
librium in the circulation. Much Of our
'money" is of the wrong kind, and much of
it is in the wrong place. Let the government
re-melt and sell its "buzZard' dollars; lei the
treasury call in its political money ana release
its hoard of true money, and all would be
well.-Bradstreets.

Had the Bear Fever"

Yesterday afternoon, Messrs. An
drew Bensen and Jas. O. Hall drove
down to Talcott's farm, just below
town, to fill couple Of bed ticks with
straw. When about ready to return
they discovered large black bear
leisurely walking across the field.
Being unarmed, they concluded to
come back to the city for guns; which
they did, each securing rifle, and
hastily returning to where they had
left the bear. They were very keen
for shot, until they again discovered
his bearship in clump Of bushes,
hardly dozen yards off, when, as An
drew says, some sort of feeling came
over him which rendered him totally
incapable of handling his rifle or shoot.

She was man. Early in the har.
vest comedy young man applied for
and secured work on the farm Of Hen
~ Stocking, near this village. He
seemed to be very Industrious fellow
but was rather shy of his fellow work

that they often chafed him on the
size of his feet and hands. (Which
were small) and the appearance Of his
form, which they claimed resenbled

hands employed this young man and
another slept in the barn. Among
other young men employed was one
Jake Nelson. A few nights since
"Jake'' came to the village and was
detained so long that when he return.
ed home he concluded not to disturb
the people in the house, but went to
the barn instead. Just about day
break, as the workmen were prepar-

were startled by a series of yells, and
"Jake" came bounding toward the
house with his hair standing on end
and his eyes bursting from their sock.

Y. II. Chadbourue was appointed
moderator for the balance of the even
ing. Upon order being restored, the
leader Of each party was instantly on
his feet and appealed to the chair to
be first heard in support Of sour
never yielding rights for .:justice,
liberty, and the pursuit Of of the
clerks report, &c., &c. the chair,
however, promptly ruled that the re-
port in question must be read, and
the subsiding of eloquence can only be
likened to Niagara ceasing to roar.
After the reading and acceptance Of
both treasurer and clerks report, bal.
loting for clerk and treasurer was
had. which resulted in the election of
Cha's Keith and H. B. Co sles for the
respective Offices.
Next in order was to consider the
feasibility OF the district selecting a
site and erecting a suitable build

Mention was made in last weeks
UNION Of an effort being made to have
the late D. H. Murray's will set aside.
There seems to be considerable street
talk with reference thereto, but as
the courts are the proper places for
adjucations of this kind, and as the
UNION holds their decisions in greater
respect than the belchings of any n.y.
enic ghoul, and not desiring to be a
dark lantern intermeddler we decline
to discuss the matter either pro or CON.
We have before asserted, and for the
benefit of certain busy-bodies will
again state, that the UNION is not the
organ Of any clique or faction, or
neither will it be dictated to by any
rabble. So far as the legal aspects of
the case are concerned. we know
nothing and care less; on
general principles we have always un-
derstood that the law was intended
as protection to whomever might be
aggrieved; and that there was an hon
orable and manly procedure to OBJ
tain redress, and that it was not to be
used for bulldozing purposes, nor to
harass and annoy. Might never made
right in anything.
