the ordinary and usual repayment to i'm.
porters Of the excess OF deposits upon as
certained duties or upon duties where the

THE MINT ENPENSES.
This Years Appropriation Requires ;
Reduction.

The reduction OF the Sm, Francisco
Mint appropriation from 7:s5'ooo, the
amount for last wear, to $4,000 is an
item OF very considerable concern to the
employees OF that institution, as 1t means
a corresponding reduction OF he working
force, and the efforts Of Congressman Nc
keuna in the House to ancnc the Appro-
priation bill to increase the amount to last
wears basis were regarded with no small
degree OF interest by those concerned.
While Superintendent Lawton raised no
objection to the $1,000 reduction to the
contingent fund, he declared that if the
purpose of the Treasury to have the great
bulk OF small gold Of the country coined at
San Francisco was carried into effect the
reduced appropriation certainly would not
suffice This fact was communicated bv
the Director of the Min: 10 the Treasurer,
with a recommendation that the estimate
of wages should be increased $4,000 but
no attention was paid 20 the letter. Mr.
McKennas object in retaining the last
wears standard was to enable the Depart.
mcnt 20 have silver dollars coined there,
which during the past year has been most.

His efforts. however. were otno avail, and

Francisco Mint must be conducted 70 the

The Arabian Horse.

The following instance Of equine in
s.inct or reason may be put beside the
most remarkable OF canine anecdotes.
To the wild Arab his gallant steed is a
friend almost equally loved with his
wife aud children. One of the sons of
the desert was engaged with party Of
marauders in attacking a caravan,
when detachment of Turkish soldiers
came up, rescued the merchants. and
took the brigands csptive. During the
night. which our Arab lay bound hand
and 1ot within the tents OF his cap

horse neigh. He knew his voice In an

ing the blessings secured by the dead.
How they marched, and fought, and
charged, and died, that the Nation
might live; that Government should
not be blotted from this land, and that
Liberty should dwell here not alone
in name.
They admonish each other to keep
klndled the fires of patriotism; fresh
the lessons of that time. Not for the
purposes of hate, or spite, or section;
but for union, nation, and the COM
mon good, the common veal of all the
people of this Union, who, each and
all, enjoy the blessings secured by
them and their comrades.
They explain these things to their
children and their grandchildren, and
friends outside their families; they
impress upon all, by word and by ex-
ample, that the perpetuity of free in
situations, the happiness of the pres
ent and Of the future, depend upon
the preservation of the results of
those "dark days" with more than a
Vestal fidelity. They know, and they
teach, that patriotism is the right Of
this Government. They teach para
mount obedience to the Constitution
and the laws. They teach federation
in ell things, consistent with the law.
They teach that education is the guar

bird, while education is the bold-eyed
eagle, that mounts on fearless wing
and rides among the clouds.
