loss of life and property in this coun-
try by violent wind-storms. The year
1884 was remarkable in this respect
The records of the Signal Service de-

South Carolina, Is in Alabama, IL in

in % of the tornadoes. Their average
width was 1882 feet, and their aver
age length was 1910 miles. Their
velocity averaged AZ miles per hour.
The tornadoes averaged 45 seconds in
passing a given point The tenn
perature before the tornadoes was
generally warm, and generally they
were succeeded by cooler weather.
Their greatest frequency was between
4 and $50 p. m. The largest mum. IT

1000 buildings were destroyed by tor
nadoes during the year The most
extensive tornado was in Minnesota,

History Of Coinage.

If we put aside the inartistic and
uninteresting currency of China and
Japan every existing piece of money
can trace its. ancestry back to a COM
mon source in the seventh century be-
fore Christ. The descent of all Greek
coins from the issues of Pheidon and
Cresus, and the connection of the
Roman system with a Siculo-Greek
standard are well known; but it will
be a revelation to many readers to find
how modern and medieval series
Asiatic and European alike-derive
their origin either from Greece or
Rome. India learnt the art of coin
age from the Bactrian successors of
Alexander the Great; Arabia's first
emission were debased copies of the
Athenian tetradrachm. Parthia imi-
tated the Seleucid kings Of Syria, and
the Sapors and Chosroes of restored
Persia continued the Parthian issues,
only to be copied in turn by the earli-
est of the MahCmetan Khalifs. The
"dinar" and "dirhem" of Haroun-al-
Raschid show by their very names a
descent from the denarius and drach-
ma, no less than the sou" and 'livre,"

During the past 300 years. It is
stated, some 200 systems of shorthand
have been devised and published,
The older forms were usually mere
ciphers, or a representation Of the Or
binary methods of spelling by the use
symbols for letters, whereby no great
advantage in the way of brevity was
attained. HierOglyphics, or picture
writing, were also classed as short
hand; also, plan Of omission of the
vowels, which might be called abbre-
waited long-hand. The first system Of
shorthand which attained the objects
sought for-brsvity and accuracy
was that Of Isaac Pitman, first pub
llshed in I849. This mode Of short
hand was the first to be known as
photography, or sounds rather than
letters. Other systems since intro
duced have continued this plan. Gus
tom has Of late years adopted the
word Of shorthand, which comes to
us from the Greek, and means narrow
or close writing; in other phrase.

The Phrygians were people from
the shores of the Euxine Sea, and they
conquered and took possession Of the
entire eastern part of Asia Minor. To
distinguish themselves from the ma
tives, the conquerors wore close fit
ting cap, and had it stamped on their
coins. The Romans took the fashion
of wearing caps from the Phrygians,
but they were only worn by freedmen.
When a slave was set free, a red cap
called the pileus, was put on his head,
and this was a token of his manu-
mission. When Sat1ra.;4l r 'tIPgk s;ye

set up on the top of a spear as a
promise of liberty to all slaves who

same expedioat to incite the slaves
to take arms with him against Syla.
When Caesar was murdered the con-
spirators carried a cap on a spear as
a token of the liberty of Rome. The

the Aventine Hill carried in her hand
a cap as an emblem of freedom.-St.

AT the agricultural convention called
by Commissioner Colman, Of delegates
from agricultural colleges. the com
missioner gave utterance to these
words concerning experimental work
at colleges: He said there was nothing
which would so attract and riyet the
attention of the agricultural public to
the colleges as experimental work. On
the college farms should be tested
every variety of fruit, cereals, grasses,
timber trees, and even domestic ami
mails, and those found in all respects
adapted to the locality should be dis
seminated by the college. Thus one
college farm would be trying expert
ments for hundreds of thousands Of
farmers, who would enjoy the benefit
and not suffer the losses in money, Ia
Dor and time of making the tests for
themselves. He could see the neces-
sity for a great national experimental
farm also, which he would have estab-
lished near the capital, and it he might

a permanent national or worlds expo

by side. These views we're Endorsed

The interchange Of commodities be-
tween nations has many apparent &C.
centricities. Russia sends flour to the
United States, and completes success
fully with our own millers; America
sends cutlery to Sheffield and manu-
featured cottons to Manchester; France
buys wine in Ohio and California and
cotton seed oil in st. Louis, returning
the former to New York as claret or
Burgundy and the latter as pure olive
oil, and SO on the peculiarities of com
mercial exchange continue through a
long series of articles of both luxury
and necessity. With the present cheap
systems of expeditions transportation,
constantly being improved in every
direction, it would seem that the time
IS approaching when it will be impos-
sible to be sure where any article we
eat, drink, wear or otherwise use had
it's origin. The only thing certain is
that the people who show the most en-
ergy, ingenuity and business capacity
will certainly lay the rest of the world
under tribute. In such a conflict as
this implies the future prosperity Of
the United States is assured.

The plan of assisting the poor work

them with funds to emigrate seems to
have been almost complete failure.
The leader of the movement reports
that there are no less than twenty-fOur
societies in London for aiding emf
grants, but that they do not raise
more than $4,000 year for the pur-
pose, and only helped 2,118 persons to
emigrate last season. The trouble is

many societies, and too little public
sympathy with their work. The

The agitation for and against a public
reception to the Prince and Princess of
Wales by the Corporation of Cork con-
tinues to array the Loyalists against the
NatIOnalists. The controversy is par
ticularly bitter in Cork, one of that
city's representatives in Parliament be-
ing Parneil. The Loyalists of that city
having failed to secure the cooperation
of the Natlo6alIsts in arranging for a
general welcome, have raised among
themselves fund that now amounts to
81 500. This they will spend 10 the
way intended TO impress the rOya visi-
tors as much as possible with the idea
that the city of Cork is town bursting
with loyalty to the British Crown. But
the Prince of Wales is too smart a man
OF the world to fail to see when he
comes to Cork that a majority of the
ciLizans, while they entertain towards
him personally no particular feeling of
animOSity, are nevertheless Nationalist
AS against British rule. The National
lists Will neither make nor allow any
hostile demonstration against the Prince
of Wales. They Will simply follow Par.
