Effects of the Free Coinage of Silver.
 [Jesse Seligman in North American Review.l
 eTheaeffect of a change of standard on enterprises in course of execution,S on es- tablished business on investments-in fact, on all industry-is most disastrous. Such change defeats every reasonable expectation formed before it took place. Merchants that have bound themselves to make large payments in other countries and therefore in gold, receive silver from those that owe them and so cannot pay their debts; or, if they can, then only at immense loss. Railroads receive silver for freight and passengers carried, and have promised to pay their bonds and coupons in gold; and so throughout the list. But this is only the beginning. The failure of one merchant means the failure of others, his creditors; mercantile fail ures, the stopping of factories, the ruin of railroads, mean laborers and mechanics thrown out of employment, reduced wages
 to those remaining, and, to crown all, de | creased purchasing power of those re duced wages. Prices of commodities rist
 rapidly; wages but slowly. Let it not b'

 ing to the Mountains.
 PARIS, Feb. 5.-A despatch to the Gaulois from Buenos Ayres says that the Chilian rising was due to violence on the part of the Chilian regulars. The rising occurred at Castro. The battle between the regulars and the insurgents lasted three hours. Seventeen of the former and 13O of latter were killed. Profiting by the re- volt the hostile section of the Chilian regulars attacked one another with knives to settle an old quarrel and the insurgents around the city joined in the fighting, which lasted two days. The Lyceum and hospital suffered severe ly The number of persons killed is not known exactly, but is large. Ancud is not quiet. The harbor is patrolled by volunteers, who are partisans of the president, assisted by two thousand sailors. The revolt ap- pears to be reduced to the principal har- bors. Beaten on all sides the insurgents intend to retreat to the mountains to as- sume the defensive and march toward Santiago, which is now denuded of troops.

 demoralization; panic; then hard times
 ntter stagnation and dullness, and, accom-

 caverns and paleolithic implements
 wished to summon his retainers, he stood | up and howled for them. His descend ants have. sought out many inventions. l they have devised the telegraph, the tele- hone, the special delivery, the district messenger and a great variety of contri- vances for making signals-and yet when Dives gives ball and finds it necessary to summon the carriages of his guests, in the small hours of the morning, he has no better means of doing so than were pos sessed by his historic ancestor. He sends servant to stand on the sidewalk and howl for an hour or tive, until the car riages, which are scattered about the streets for two or three squares in every direction, have been called up and loaded. during which process his neighbors, who have not been invited to the ball, and who are kept awake by the racket, writhe in agony and call down maledictions upon the head of Dives, his guests, his retainers and all their descendants, to the fortieth generation.
 In this way Dives advertises himself to his guests as a man of wealth, who can afford to entertain literally, and to his neighbors and the public generally as man of influence, who can break the peace with impunity, and need not fear the ar rest of his servants for making distur- bance one-tenth of which would land A casual reveIler in dungeon cell before he had time to begin the second instalment. It is very pleasant for Dives-but how about his neighborsi In this land of the free, where every man is, theoretically, as good as onother, and in his own estimation a great deal better, have they no rights which even Dives and his bowling hench- men are bound to respect. Must their rest be broken and their sleep destroyed that his servants legs may be spared the fs- tigue of running after carriagesa We learned, some while ago, that, as to the subordinate temples of Bacchus, rum and music won't mix" Does the same principle apply to wine and midnight ulu- lationss

Simple en- Joyment is no crime per Sc, though some cross grained folks would like to make it so, nor is a man justified in making nui- sapce of himself by the fact that he is working or even doing penance.

Disturbance at a Demonstration in
 Barcelona-An Omcer's Rash order
 Several Persons Wounded.
 BARCELONA, Feb. 5.-In this city to-day while peaceful demonstration in which a parade and speeches were the main features was proceeding in favor of the republican leader Don Nicolas Sal meron Alfonso, Zorilla's co-worker in the propagation of repu blican ideas, the crowds attracted by the pro cession became somewhat excited. This alarmed the officer in charge of troop of mounted gendarmes detailed to maintain order, and he ordered them to charge. They did so at gallop, firing their pistols and carbines right and left. The result was that several persons were more or less dangerously y wounded and some of the bullets from the gendarmes' weapons were fattened on the balcony and window of the hotel from which Salmeron was speaking. The action of the gendarmes enraged the people, but they dispersed without any open act of retaliation It is asked to order an inquiry into the conduct of the officer in charge of the gendarmes. Salmeron's friends claim that the bullet marks around the window from which he was speaking show that the gendarmes tried to shoot him.
