How to Talk.

Philadelphia PreS'
We are often told that to be a good con-
versationallist. nne must be q good listener,
but to be a good listener Is not to sit silent.
1t is to know enough OF the subject under
consideration to ask intelligent questions,
aud listen understandiugly to the replies.
A gentleman who had given his daughter
great educational advantages was disap.
pointed that she did not shine in CONVEX
sation with his friends. "Why don't You
talk ?" he asked. "You chatter with the
girls, but with people Of sense you are
silent" b
IL don't know WHAT talk about. Your
friends are not interested in the things
that interest me. The girls arc"
Hero is the key to this problem OF
learning to converse. Be interested III
that which interests your companion. II
it is a child make your conversation on q
level with q Child's comprehension, aud
about things that interest a child. II q
philosopher be your companion, and you
cannot interest or instruct him, be inter.
ested in learning from him. The import
auCe OF knowing a little Of everything is
emphasized by the necessity OF meeting
all classes Of people.
"Did you ever sell dry goods2" asked
q pert miss Of a Judge. You seem 10 know
all about ladies' wear"
"No," was the reply; "but my mother,
who was an invalid, taught me to do her
shopping, and l have found the knowl.
edge thus obtained valuable in society and
in my profession"
l once overheard an elegant gentleman
talking with an unCnltured old woman
about making soap, and showing that he
knew something Of the art, and was in.
terested In learning more.
Sir Walter Scott made II 6 point to talk
to every one he met upon some topic
that pleased him. On one occasion he
met in a stage coach a man whom he
tried to converge with upon every imag.
aginable topic, but without rousing q
response. Quite in despair, he exclaimed:
"ls there anything you can talk about p
The man replied, "What do you know
about hend.leather?"
Sir Walter confessed that he knew
nothing, but he wanted to learn, and
upon this topic found bis companion in.

The surplus in the Treasury iss night
mare to Mr.. Morrisona and hi sits up o'nightl
matching out schemes to get rid Of it. His
resolution to apply some Of this surplus tc
liquidate the interest bearing debt is in
the nature OF tepudiating scheme. When
the United States issued her bonds the ex'
press stipulation was that they would be
paid of in gold, and II Mr.. Morrison's
resolution passes the government will be
compelled to violate lis faith, because, as
Mr., HiscoCk says, It will be impossible to
pay of the amount Of bonds called fol
without using silver, Of which the sur
plus is largely composed. twill result in
nothing more than dobasing the honor
Of the nation.
The plea that the addition to the Circu'
lation Of the country this resolution would
effect would make productive that which
was unproductive is not exactly true. The
working mau would beno bettero of than he
is now II S~l00,000,OOO were added 10 the
circulation; it would notincrease his waget
or aid in paying him more promptly than
heis now. In fact II Mr.. Morrison keeps on
alarming tho public confidence by his re.
yolutionary schemes the prosperity that ia
now dawning will receive q severe check
and the industries Of the country will sui.
fer accordingly.
Let we'll enough alone. ThOpertiuScity

surplus 1t now contains seems as though
1t was determined to keep up It's record,
and when 1t goes out Of power hand over
