THE SILVER DOLLARS.

just now attention is being called to the
alleged profit of coming silver dollars, ac-
cruing to the Government. Such state
ments are calculated to mislead the public.
The real truth is that no matter what
show of profit on the coinage of silver may
be exhibited, the whole operation is pro-
ductive only OF loss and injury. On the
Both OF June there had been coined, since
the passage of the Bland Allison bill, G3,-
934, $50 silver dollars of the lightweight
cent variety. At the same date there
were in the Treasury 45, los, 296 of these
silver dollars, and IS, S26, 454 of them
were in circulation, or locked up some.
where outside of the Treasury. The Sec
rotary of the Treasury has taken special
and particular pains to get them into cir
culation, and every attempt has failed.
On the other hand he has endeavored in
every possible way to protect his gold re-
serve, but has been unable to prevent
steady drain of that metal The silver
organs have falsely asserted that it is as
difficult to keep gold in circulation as sill.
yer. The fact is that while silver con-
stantly returns to the Treasury vaults, no
matter how often it is paid out, it is found
impracticable to keep gold in the vaults.
For example, on the first of last October
there was Sl69, COG, 995 of gold in the
Treasury. On the first of tho present
month it had declined to Sl26, las, 427,
showing loss in nine months of S43, 46l,
sos. During the same period the silver
had swelled from S3l, $50, SO to S45, 1885,
296, showing a gain of Sl3, 54S, 426.
1t must be remembered that under
the silver bill the Treasury is com.
PEELED to purchase 81, 600, 600 of silver
every month, and coin it, and it is IN the
process of coming that the fictitious profit
to in recent dispatches, appears.
But the actual tendency of the whole pol
icy is to force the gold reserve out of the
Treasury, and to supply its place with
silver, and if the Bland bill is not repealed
it is only a question of time for this sub
stitution to be completed. The Govern
ment is low, and has for the last twenty
eight months been, engaged in buying sill
yer with gold and turning the silver into
a deprecated and unpopular coin which
nobody will take. Let this process go on
without check, and it is clear that the
last gold VIII presently have been expended
in the purchase of silver, and that with
the disappearance Of the gold reserve must
come the gold premium, and the familiar
but not less disastrous experience of a
fuetuating and deprecated currency, both
ooin and paper. But though this is per-
haps the most important question the
country has to deal with, neither party has
had the courage to grapple it, and we are
entering upon momentous national can
vass without any definite assurances from
any source in regard to subject which
brooks no delay, and which ought to have
been settled in accordance with the princi-
pies of enlightened finance long ago.

ANOTHER SAD DEATH AT SAN QUENTIN.
The following is from the San Francisco
Post OF August 10th:
There died in San Quentin yesterday
morning convict, the history of whose
alleged crime is familiar to the people of
West Oakland, both from the youthfulness
OF the prisoner and the peculiar facts, or
rather the lack OF facts clearly eliminating
him, which were brought ont on his trial
The deceased, whose name was j. Reverly,
five years ago was established in prosper
Gus business at Oakland Point. About
that time forgery was committed and
Beverly was arrested for it. On the stand
he neither denied nor admitted the crime,
and after a very weak defense he was con-
victed and sent over for term of years.
It was suspected then, as it is to-day, that
he was not the forger. but that another
man OF family and an intimate friend, was
the real criminal. By excellent conduct
Re"erly shortened his term OF imprison-
ment, and would have been released to-
morrow had not the grim angel of death
claimed him. The deceased had been all
ing for some time. with consumption. His
friends were last week preparing to receive
him and to assist to regain him his former
business standing, but now their kind off.

sad honors to his memory.

Adelaide Nelson's Death-sInrsiial Ba.
zsine still Alive.
PARIS, August 16th.-Adelaide Nelson
died at midnight Saturday at the Restaurant
Duchalet, in the Bots de Boulogne.
The report of the death of Marshal Bazaine
is unfounded.
Particulars of Adelaide Nelson's Death.
PARIS, August 10Th Adelaide Nelson
was taken Saturday night, while driving in
the Bots de Boulogne with a lady who has
been living with her as companion. She had
been staying at the Continental Hotel for a
few days previous to her death, with her
companion, servant, and a gentleman de-
scribed as her secretary. The circumstances
surrounding her death are so suspicious that
police inquiry may become necessary. The
rooms which Miss Nelson occupied at the
Continental Hotel have been sealed up, and
kilograms have been dispatched to her rela-
tives.
Another report says that Miss Neil
son had left her home with party of
friends, in the best OF spirits and apparently
in good health, to take breakfast in the famous
Duchalet Restaurant, Bots de Boulogne. At
the table she frequently alluded to her success
in her profession, ard spoke hopefully of what
she expected to accomplish during the coming
season and in her more distant future. Sud
denly Mis- Nelson turned pale, gave low
cry, pressed her hand upon her heart and fell
back in her chair. Her friends sprang to her
assistance, and attempted to bring her to
consciousness, dispatching messenger for
medical aid but all efforts were OF no avail.
Miss Nelson was dead.

New York, August 16th.-The CONNER
cial this evening learns that the report of
large quantities of cigars being sent here by
San Francisco Chinese is correct, but they
are of an inferior brand, and the prices re.
ceived are not so great as reported. The only
fear entertained by the cigar manufacturers
is if Chinese cigar labor proves profitable, it
will interfere with the class of goods known
as tenement house cigars" manufactured
for the most part by Bohemians. 1t is not
known to whom the San Francisco cigars
are shipped. The cigar trade in this city at
the present time is exceedingly brisk, and
manufacturers declare that they have great
difficulty to obtain the goods to fill orders.
The demand is far greater than it was seven
months ago
