as we are told, $50, 900 are represented by

proofs that the people do not want the
Jumps of silver, and rather than have them
they take papeF-very "curious" this, but
the people dislike the dollars so much that
they do it. Our instructor in finance also
lets off some gold figures after his silver ones,
like protectionist's gold rain" after his
"silyer star," but those figures travel out OF
the record" Guided by the foreign tele-
grams the APPEAL stated that neither
France, England, Germany nor Italy would
consent to meet the United States commits
sioners third time on the subject of raising
silver to par with gold, at which statement
the Times becomes eloquent about the double
standard Of France-poor France! She has
cause to grieve that she has it, for it caused
her to lose and London to gain the position
of the worlds clearinghouse; also, about the
position Of Italy as having only silver
money, the Times apparently knowing moth
ing of how Italy has been negotiating to OBJ
tain gold for coinage. Ii all that the Times
mistakes about the monetary position OF
France and Italy were true-Germany is
warily avoided by our instructor-it
would be no less true that all our
overtures to the European nations to
monetize silver up to the gold value
have been in vain, and, spite of all our
invitations and the Chattanooga Tfmes's in
dignant patriotism, it is not as we, but
Europe pleases that silver is at discount,
aud the price of silver decides the value Of
the coin-as well az OF the silver spoon
that is made of it. Our contemporary catches

les the Times complains OF for the second
time we are not acquainted with him. If we
should ever become so we will exhort him to
be less tantslizing to the Times and warn
him against its Calling gun.

HmprOviaE.

ST. LOUIS, March 3-With the restoration
OF railroad and Geographic communication
with the tributary country, after the great
storm OF last week, business has improved,
and considerable animation and activity is
observable in nearly all branches. There are
no notable ch anges in prices, however. Money
has been easy all the week, and the reserve
of the banks has increased somewhat,
bat there has been demand enough
to keep all the funds busy that
the banks cared to loan. Collections
from the country have not been large. Rates
unchanged at s psr cent, and New York ex-
change firm, with upward tendency; 25950c
premium and 75c generally asked. Spot
cotton has ruled firm, with increased sales at
&c higher than last week. Tobacco dull,
with light receipts and not much demand
On Change grain has huctuated considerably,
but the general movement has been downward
particularly for near months. The decline
on wheat from Tuesday 10 Thursday was 8
@44c. To-day an upward turn was taken and
prices closed ! &c higher for March, and 2Bc
higher for April, other months remaining
about the same as at yesterdays close. Corn
has changed much less than wheat, and
closed higher than last week. Provisions
have followed other markets, with no notable
feature. A good Southern order trade but
no speculative movement has occurred.

to advance prices &c all round. The market
closes firm. The weeks gales are AZ 900

week. The weeks sales were 100000 bales
The sugar receipts are very light, and insult

which are firmly held. Molasses supplies
are now confined 10 shed stocks, but grades
of open kettle are about exhausted. Rice

Two Freight Thieves Make IL Rather
Lively for n while.

CLEVELAND, March 3-Between 9 and 10
o'clock pm, the conductor of the west
bound Lake Shore freight train, which Just
left Erie, discovered that two men had broken
into box car loaded with valuable freight
He succeeded in fastening the door, and at
the first opportunity telegrsphed to a hta-
bula for officers to be at the station. When
they arrived at AsEtabula the officers
and train hands found the men in the car
had sawed the door and we're preparing to
escape. Seeing the demonstration to arrest
them the men drew two revOlyers each and
began to shoot rapidly. Fire was returned,
and some twenty shots were exchanged. The
officers managed TO secure one of the thieves
and speedily handcuffed him, the other es-
capped and fled to the woods, dropping one
revolver. The handcuffed man when taken
into the station made a sudden dash for
liberty, jumping through a window and car
rying the sash along, but he was immedi-
ately captured The other robber went to

Tie Prince Of Nales' Medicine.
From London Truth.

The other day, during the pheasant
shooting in the Duo dAumale's park at
Chantilly, the following anecdote was re-
counted: Last year, in the course of bat
tue, one Of the members of the party un-
luckily happened to wound, very slightly
one Of the men who beat up the game
The man, of course, cried out and made
the most of his wound SO as to attract tho
dukes attention. The prince OF Wales,
who was OF the party, approached the
wounded man. s'My FRIEND" said his royal
highness, II am the doctor; drink this
and the prince poured out from his gourd
goblet full of excellent cognac, which the
man gratefully swallowed; at the same
time his royal highness put into the pa
tents willing hand 10O-franc note.
Since then, every time there is shooting
party at the Due d'Aa1nale's the heaters
express their sorrow that they are not
wounded and that the English doctor is
not present.

The Lazy, the Dog, ana the Drummer.

Atlanta Constitution
Among the persons who purchased tick
cts at the union ticket Office yesterday was
an elderly ladY whose destination was ST.
Paul, MINI. Save the presence of small
dog. which she declared she was going to
take with her, the lady was alone. After
securing check for baggage, the lady and
her dog entered the ladies' coach, where
the former took a seat, while the latter
crouched down at her feet. Soon after she
had assumed a peaceful attitude the train
hand entered the coach, and noticing the
dog started to drive it out. The old lady
objected, but the train hand would not
yield. although he saw the dogs mistress
in tears. A commercial tourist who had
been silent witness to the entire CONVEX
sation, stepped up and asked the train
hand to let the dog remain until he would
return. The train hand complied, and the
tourist left the coach in hurry. He ra-
turned, bearing cheap valise in his hand.
which he opened. After cutting large
hole in the side, he placed the dog in the
valise, and, pulling his head through the
hole, closed the valise. With a smile he
deposited the valise on the seat by the old
lady, and quietly laughed when the
train hand came back to kick the dog
out.

he has had charge of the revenues and is

used his opportunity. John Sherman was
