CHANGING THE NEW COIN.
hiIadeIphia Times.

'l Philadelphia Times
The Secretary of the Treasury having di-
rected that the word scents" be added TO
the new five.cens piece, Superintendent
Snowden, Of the Mint, who designed the
original coin, Is engaged In preparing de.
vice for the back Of the proposed coin which
will include the denomination of Its value In
unmistakable terms. No order has, how
ever, been made suspending the coinage Of
the new five-cent pieces and the Mint Bu-
reau reports that they are being issued from
the Mint in this city at the rate Of. nearly
81, 900 worth . day, which amount Is said to
be suiieient only to supply about half the
applications made for them. The demand
comes exclusively from private firms, Is
Treasurer Gilfillan has decided that no more
of these coins shall be put In circulation
through the Sub. Treasures unless the Sec.
retary of the Treasury shall direct other
wise. The Director of the Mint has received
letter from j. W. Helfricb, formerly coiner
At the New Orleans Mint and now Superin-
tendent of the Mint coming nickels at the
City Of Mexico, stating that he has con-
tract for coming 10000. 900 million pieces Of
nickel coin for tho Mexican Government.
He submits specimens Of the ore, two and
fve-cent pieces as coined by him, and states
that over $4,000 worth of them are already
in circulation. The value of these nickel
coins is designated simply by Roman nu-
neral. The reverse side of the fve-cent
Mexican nickel Is almost an exact counter
part OF the reverse side of the fve.cent nickel
now being issued from the Mint here. They
are also about the same size. The face and
inscription, however, are entirely different.
1t is also stated in this connection that the
French Government has adopted the nickel
coinage instead Of bronze.

A Remarkable Case.
S. +. Chronicle.

). +. Chronicle.
The annals of law In this country can
show no case more singular than that of DIR.
Harrison Wagner of Frederick county, Md.
He Is entitled to the position Of leading bar
rator In the country. He looked on suing as
. science, and on various petty pretexts
brought many hundreds of suits against his
neighbors, Owing to his previous actions
they regarded him As crank and paid no at.
tention 10 the suits. The fact that they had
given no grounds for the proceedings afford
ed them false security, and the result was.
that In short time Wagner obtained judg-
ment by default In zoos cases for 500 each.
The ligitant RETAINED from sending any no.
tice Of the result to his victims, and after
the three months limit for appeal had ex.
pired he obtained certified judgments for the
amount In each case. About two years ago
Wagner's system WAS explained. A farmer
named Shanks died, leaving an estate valued
at $4,000. Wagner at once brought In judg
menis against the estate for more than twice
It's value. OF course, an immense sensation
was caused and every one who had been sued
began to cast about for means Of defense.
The Shanks case was made 0 test case, and q
jury found for Wagner, as, legally, bis claim
could not be shaken. Then the Protective
Association, which had furnished money fol
the defense, took the case up to the Court Of
Appeals, where, about ten days age, the de.
cision of the lower court was overruled and
the 1000 judgments, obtained by SO mnch
skill and patience by Wagner, were set aside.
The higher court held that the judgments,
being obtained by fraud, were not valid.
Thu ends In discontinue one Of the most
gigantic schemes to coin money out ofthe
technical machinery Of the law. Leaving
equity out Of the question, Wagner's claim
to levy on the estates of his neighbors was
unimpeachable. He simply extended prin-
ciple which holds good In all petty cea.ts.
In single cases he would have been adjudged
the victor. IL was only when he showed the
logical result Of technicality magnified q
thousand.fold that the fraud assumed start
ling proportions and called out bitter oppo-
sItion. The case is noteworthy because of
the skill of the swindler and the assurance
which IL gives that the spirit Of the law does
not always give place to the letter which

is In old.faslioned script, and 70 undoubtedly

Novelties La Shoes.

feet could display them 70 greater advantage; ;
Or, on the oshsr sides when women With un-

For the former ore styles and color beyond
enumeration. For the latter are exceedingly
low cut sandals and slippers in. bronze hid,
black satin or black undressed hid, with .
bit Of embroidery or beading upsn the
pointed toes: these to be worn Invariably with.
stocking Of black or some dark shade, the
pale tints being left for those whose deli
cately chapel feet can best venture to display
them. Among the novel fsneies for these
favored ones are Charles Ix. shoes OF silk,
matching the costume, and Vatican shoee Of
white Suede Kid. The latter usually have
the toes hand painted, this ornamentation
often being done by the ladies themselves
after purchasing the plain shoes. Although
this material is easily soilsd, II IL very easily
cleaned with plpe clay powder. Sandals VI
gray hid Or bronze are worn with homo toll

broidsred on the instep with delicate msuvs

LIVE IT DOWN.


Has foolish word been spoken,
Or an evil deed been done;
Has the heart been almost broken
For the friends that now disown?
Let not the GOODNESS or the frown
Shake thy mauhood-live it down.
Is the stern traducer sneering,
Trusting innuendos vile;
With the worlds opinion veering,
Basking in Its fickle smile?
What are goss:ps with their frown?
Buzzing insects--live 1t down.
Verdict fairer will be given,
In the sober after thought
Charity, sweet child Of heaven,
Judgment harsh will set at naught,
Then will grieved mercy's frown
Smite the sland'rer-live it down.
But II man refuse to soften
For that weakness he may feel,
There is one forgives as often
As to him we choose TO kneel.
Droop not then If all should frown;
With such friendship-live it down.

Imprisonment for Life.

The miserable men who were lately
condemned to penal servitude for life
in Liverpool, and those senteneedsfo for a
similar offence some time since in Lon
don, constitute togetherthe most seri-
Gus addition to the ranks of our cenvicts
for many years. They have already
passed out of public attention, and for
twenty years at least nothing will be
heard. of them, except in the ease of
death, when possibly q brief notice of
the factmay findits way into the papers.
A sentence of penal servitude for life
is undoubtedly avery dreadful one for
anyone teaHnaeFgos falls, laeweFer;,
no doubt with very different effect on
individuals of different temperament
Oneof the prisoners who went to their
doom few weeks back passedfro the
dock with an invitation to his sister to
meet him in heaven, another of them
went seemingly strong in the assurance
that sonnet thing would yet turn up fer
his benefit. A dash of the Micawber
temperament In d mans composition
must be peculiarly valuable to one
under sentence of penal servitude for,
the term of his natural life, though as
a rule, with terribly few exceptions,
there can be no reasonable ground for
the indulgence of any hope when once
the sentence has been passed. Nothing
in this world is much more certain than
that q criminal upon whom an English
Judge has pronounced sentence of penal
servftude win undergo that sentence in
all its rigor-subject, of course, to such
curtailment as the law permits. On
this point of curtailInent there is a. very
common misrepresentation. Most per-
sons are aware that criminal sentenced
to seven, ten, or twenty years penal
seryitude, viii, under certain con-
ditions-very generally, though Of
course enormously, believed TO con-.
sist largely in .sco1ning the pious
dodge with the chaplain lib
Grated before the expiration of his
sentence. on a ticket of leave, =
as the popular expression is,
though ssunder license il the term
adopted in the Act of Parliament. 1t
is generally supposed, however, that
sentence for life permits of no such re-
Taxation of vigor, and that prisoner
who is thus doomed viii never know
liberty again. This is scarcely correct,
however. A convict under sentence
for life win certainly remain a prisoner
for twenty years; but if during those
twenty years he has been well con-
Quoted, and has steadily performed his
daily round of work, he may then be
allowed TO go at large on license. If
the record against him should be found
on examination to be unsatisfactory,
he will Of course be subject TO further
detention, but his case viii certainly
come up for consideration at the end Of
twenty years, and he will have his
chance for license the same as any other
prisoner. -Lo'azoss Dailg Neses,
