A Boston merchant advertised for

cations-one from half blind woman
of sixty, and the other from girl of
fourteen, who proved SO giddy on a

vertisement appeared, calling for "sales-
ladies'" and before nine o'clock there
was such rush that he had to put out
sign of Positions all Filled' before

WILL THERE BE WAR.

When the mine is ready "a spark suffces
20 produce the explosion. If the Powers
OF Europe are ripe for war, an insiguia-
can't incident might be accepted as
sign to begin. France and Spain are
not likely to fight about the insult to
King ALFONSO in the streets Of Paris,
unless the antecedent situation had
been provocative of armed collision.
The Spaniards are naturally in a rage
at the indignities to which their SOW
ereign was subjected; but an ebullition
Of popular sentiment rarely leads to
actual hOstilities in the absence OF be-
ligerent purposes on the part Of the
Governments concerned.
1t is true that the elements of interna-
tional discord have for some time past
been quietly, but actively, at work in
Europe; but it is question whether
any one of the nations is willing or pre-
pared, to be plunged into q conflict at
the present time. 1t all depends upon
the policy Of the PruSSian Government.
Ofeourse, the insult that was flung at
ALFONSO was aimed at Germany; but
neither the German people nor their
Government are likely to be provoked
into the fighting mood by any such ex-
hibition Of Partisan spleen. But if Ger
many wants war, which is hardly sup
pOsable just now, BISMARCK has but t.
raise his finger, and throughout the
continent will be heard the tramp Of
the armies.

and silver coins. The writer caa give
no accurate estimate Of the treasure
which wts stolen, but he insists
that h was much less than has been
stated In the published stsries. No
horse could struggle under the load of
gold which some Of the men are said to
hayecarried away. The writer of tbs
stery says that the men who captured
the wagons were not the principle plot
ters Of the scheme Of robbery. The
plan, he asserts, was conceived before
he treasure started from Washington,
and was formed by the very men who
had charge of the gold, some OF whom
went along as guards. The great secret
which has never before been told Is the
tact that there was collision between
the robbers and the guards. This story
may or may not be true. 1t Is altogether
likely that the southern people would
he very glad to accept as fact the
story that the Yankees got away with
the treasure, rather than it should stand
for q historical fact that it was taken
by some Of the high officials Of the con-
federacy. The probabilities are that
there was not enough treasure to make
very much fuss over at the most, and
whoever obtained possession Of it was
not greatly enriched thereby.

OHIO DEMOCRACY.

The Democracy of Ohio are full OF
hope. They feel that the State is theirs
if every man in the party does but do his
duty from this hour until the polls close
next Tuesday evening.
Ordinarily the State is Republican on
full vote. But this year it looks IS if
full vote is what the Democrats most
ueed.
Last year the Democrats carried Ohio
by detection Of the German vote from
the Republicans. 1t is conceded that
the German Republicans will this year,
as last, vote with the Democrats on the
issue of personal liberty.
That vote holds the balance of power
in Ohio.
Years ago it was solidly Democratic.
It left the Democracy on account of
slavery. 1t was for FREEDOM then, as
it is for FREEDOM to-day. At that time
it applied the term to the negro race.
Now it applies the term to its own race
AMI people. 1t is for the personal lib
erty Of the German and the American
to-day, as it was for the personal lib
erty of the negro in the past.
Even the leaders of the Republican
party in Ohio are doubtful of the result,
and no longer claim the State with con-
6denee. This should encourage every
Democrat in the State to exert himself
for the achievement of glorious vic
tory.
The signs are encouraging. Victory
is within your grasp, Brother Buckeyes.

ABOUT IRE BEL GOLD"

The Atlanta Constitution prints

on its way from Washington, Ga, to
Richmond, Va. The story is told in =
manner which must be especially pleas
ing to the "old line" sOutherners, who
will delight in its frequent illusions to
the hated yankees" but hiss, after all,
a value as new history of al event
about which there has been much dis
pute. According to the story now told,
the confederate treasure, In the early
part of June, 1865, was kept, part in q
storehouse, part in the old bank, part
at the station, and the bullion in the
cellar of stOrehOuse in Washington,
Ga. 1t was guarded by number Of per-
sens appointed by JEFFERSON DAVIS,
and those persons, the new historian says
had stolen o good part of the gold. The
treasure was ordered to be transferred
to VirgInia, aud while the guard were
encamped over night, they were at
tackled by q band Of Yankees" The
guard made but slight resistance, and
the wagons were captured without
firing gun or pistol. The boxes Of
gold and silver were broken open, and
each man took rs many double eagles
and silver dollars as he could carry, and
fastened awav to hide it.
Holes were dug in the ground by
some Of the men, while others hid their
treasure in the branches of trees, aud
others sunk it in ponds, marking the
places 50 that it could be found when
the excitement sure to be caused by the
robbery had died away. All night long
the work Of hiding went on, and only
the gray dawn drove the robbers away
from the scene. The ground is said to
have been literally covered with gold

imagines that the people would not
