Tho Earliest Coined Money.
Throughout the early parts

Throughout the early parts OF
Scripture, as well as through the
poems of Homer, not a single pas
sage occurs from which can be in
ferred the existence Of stamped
money of any description. 1t is
now agreed that the Egyptians had
no coined money. Herodotus IS
authority for statement that the
Egyptians had no coined money.
Herodotus isauthority for the state
ment that the Lydians were the first
people who coined gold and silver.
The Parian Chronicle, however,
ascribes the first coinage of copper
and silver money to Pheidon, King
of Argos, SS5 B. C., in Egina,
which Hlian corroborates; and
the best numismatic antiquaries
agree in considering the coins
of Egina, from their archeic
form and appearance, the most
ancient known. They are OF
silver, and bear on the upper side
the figure of a turtle, and on the
under all indented mark.
Pheidon also first established a
scale of weights and measures,
which are considered to have been
borrowed Immediately from the
Phenicians, and by them originally
from the Babylonians, the common
origin being the Chaldean priest
hood.
Coins are among the most GER
tain evidences of history. In the
later part of the Greek series they
illustrate the chronology of reigns.
In the Roman series they fix the
dates and succession ofevents. Glib
bon observes that, if all our his
torians were lost, medals, in
scriptions, and other monuments
would be sufficient to record
the travels of Hadrian. The
reign of Probus might be written
from his coins.

bluff on the part of the railroad to pro-
cure some very desirable land around the

< Co. in purchasing the McCauley tract
found the company had no title, nor ever
had purchased the land they occupy
which is about two acres. They offered
it to the company for s4oo, and it was ac-
cepted and considered a sale. Now the
company has surveyed and laid off a plot
about a mile up the road on lands which
Mr. David Warren offers to give them
five acres, free of charge and make the
idiculous proposal to remove the entire
