To Assess LOTTERY Ticxet..

WAsulNGroN, May 2S.-The treasury de-
partment is advised that the Mexican lottery
company is having its tickets printed in El
Paso Tex after which they are taken across
the Rio Grande river into Mexico and then
reimported into the United States. The COM
pany claims that the tickets are exempt from
duty as American manufactures returned
without being advanced in yaluo or improved
IN condition. The collector at Ell Paso has
been instructed to assume for the present
that all lottery tickets are of foreign produc-
tion and to assess duty accordingly.

LONDON, May 2S.-Willam Henry Smith,
IN regard to Newfoundland, said that on the
promise of the Newfoundland delegates that
bill would be passed to carry out the modus
yiyendi and the award of the arbitration
commission under the modus vivenui agree
ment the government proposed that the
knutsford bill should be read second time
(Which Mr. Smith hoped would be- without
oppositon), and the government would agree
to postpone the next stage of the bill for
three weeks. If by this, Mr.. Smith added
the colonial legislature has passed such a
measure as the one promised by the delegates
the government would withdraw the Knuts-
ford bill Mr.. Smith then moved the second
reading of the last mentioned measure.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt deprecated
tho course which the government had
adopted in not allowing the question TO be
settled without insisting upon reading the
Knutsford bill for the second time. The
same speaker also protested against the
manner in which the colonial office haa
treated the Newfoundland delegates.
Mr. James Allison Pcton, liberal member
of leicester, ridicued the idea of passing q
measure which was to be superseded by an
other bill He therefore moved that the d0-
bate be adjourned.
Mr. William Henry Smith in reply said
that the government was bound to get the
sanction Of parliament TO the principle OF the
read a second time opportunity would be
given to the house TO review the whole
transaction.
The motion was then put and resulted 10
its defeat by vote OF 1875 against l22 for ad-
jOurnmeut

south division of Aberdeen, moved chat the
house having been informed that the New
foundland legislature had passed satlsfac-
tory act declaring its readiness to support
the measures necessary TO carry out tho
treaty obligations and the awards OF the ar
bitration commission, there was no necessity
to proceed with the second reading Of the
KnutsfOrd bill
MIR William Henry Smith accepted this
and the motion was then adopted,

gave notice that the government would in
troduCe a bill Monday 20 enable the queen to

could tell the name of the min
eral. Then | began here a
series of experiments myself,
mixing it with molten iron, and
| found that only small guam
tity was necessary to increase
the huidity Of the metal. 1t
rendered the iron ductile, and
in low grades acted as a purifier.
The product of the alloy was
a homogeneous metal of very
fine pores, capable of higher
finish than before. The Stag
expelled by its use contained
no metal, and was very light

-, ~ N ations and individuals that
have money to loan demand
gold as the standard of value.
Nations and individuals that
have money to pay and to earn
demand both silver and gold.
Those who loan want money
scarce, and those who borrow
want it plenty. There is no
great virtue in gold itself. Its
preciousness lies chiefly in its
scarcity. In I848-9 there was
talk OF demonetizing gold be-
cause it was believed that the
supply from California would
make it cheap metal. The
gold bug of today gets very
little encouragement from his
tory to warrant his adulation
of gold. Silver has a far bet
ter pedigree and has always
been more popular. Some ma
tions have had only the silver
standard and thrived, others
the double standard and a few
the single gold standard. En-
gland is the queen bee gold
bug and has been since 1916.
England has money to loan
and has the cheek to tell the

so several times and bettered
