Liberty bell. You have seen soma OF the
NOrl'ns police! Round shoulderei, hollow
eyed, dyspeptic and tired. They wear their
coats an! waistcoats buttoned, smoke cigar
cites, carry umbrellas and are all suffering
from malaria or chills. Most of them are
beyond 81 and they are shockingly frowsy,
y know. There are only eighty of the poor
invalid devils AMI their territory extends
over $50 square miles. The people here had
never seen anything like the policemen in
the north, and when the fne-looking, healthy
men came down from Philadelphia they
provoked as much comment as the bell
ITSELF
well, I've taken a malicious plea sure in
watching the effect of the climate on the
Philadelphia policemen 1t first showed
itself in a lack Of erectness in carriage. The
men became a bit round shouldered and
their heads hung forward. Then they lost
the alert and wide-awake air that character
lied them at first and, after that they grew
worse and worse until one of them passed
my stand this morning wearing a dusty
cardigan jacket, cloth cap and unpublished
boots He actually slouched along. That's
the effect of thu climate.

The British ministers, when they desire 70
borrow money, instead Of offering 81, 900
bond at o, or per cent, principal payable
in ten or forty years, as was done in Amer
lea, say TO the money lender: ave will pay
9per cent. on everything we borrow. Now,
how much of a bond do you want in return
for 81. 000!" The money-lsnder has received
as high as 81, ia and as low as s99S, accord
ing to the degree of credit enjoyed by the
government. In this way the government
has piled up an imaginary obligation of So
500, 600, 900. or, in reality, has written an
annual pension-roll of S145, 900, 900.
Now let us suppose that man desires to
"lend money to the government"-thatis is, TO
take the place of those who have so lent it,
or of those whose ancestors so lent it. The
investor takes 81 600 into the market If
Napoleon has just signed the peace Of
Tilsit the lender obtains, as aforesaid, a
bond for 81, ia, on which he ever afterward
is TO draw per cent. IL Disraeli has just
torn up Russia's treaty Of San Stsfano and
taken Cyprus, the lender gets only an even
bond for nis 81, 600.
Again, if time pass, and a premier with
out the governmental requisite of an iron
will allow the nation to drift into position
OF isolation with the most of the world and
hostility toward the good fighters, then the
holder sells his bond for $40, and may be
glad to get that much. This holder has be
fore held bonds for which he paid 81 900 and
sold as low as $500, and as high as 81, 02J
Consuis have not been so low for seven years
as they are at this crisis, but they are still
firm, as 50 would be considered very low
and 100 very high.
Tne idea of the consol wherein it differs
from the American consolidated debt, is tina
the prin ipal may vary in amount, but the
interest never. This makes ca Ter BOOK
keeping for the treasury, but exposes the
treasurer to all the greater temptations tc
borrow. The dealings in government secur.
tiles are cleared" or settled" once month

the financial observances in tn. world. The
