novel and audacious as the most brilliant

that he has sent large number Of thu

some Sensible Advice by Religious Ex-
change.

The Scripture cxhorts Us to "hold
fast the form Of ''soundwords, ! which,
suppose. means that we should call
things by their right names. The rose
by any other name would smell a.
sweet. but rascality sometimes adorns
itself with names that makes i smell
far swectcr than when bearing its own
proper designations.
Especially is this true when men
undertake to describe the swindles and
yillainics which are too common III the
higher circles Of the commercial world.
Speaking Of certain transactions OF thus
description. the Hartford C0urdnt says:
"Ovcr-certification and rehypotheca-
ton. are pretty long words. One means
lunq. and the other means stealing.
When we are told that the recent
troubles in business in New York are
Attributable to these long-sounding
causes. we are really told lying and
stealing are at the bottom OF the dill

This Il refreshing. ''Over-certiiica-
