a Possible Clew,

There is a possibility that Louis Francis
and John Grozier, the men recently ar
rested in the brush near Freeport, knew
something about the murder of Watch
man Howard at Rio Vista. 1t has been
learned that shortly before their arrest
they sold a boat at the foot of X street
which tallies with the description Of the
one which the murderers had in their
possession. The authorities are looking
the matter up, and there may be some
developments in a day or two.

WHAT FREE COINAGE IS.

The free aud unlimited coinage Of
silver means that any owner Of 500
worth of silver bullion shall have the
privilege of taking it to any govern
ment mint and having it coined into
or exchanged for standard dollars Of
the United States, or their equivalent
in legal tender currency at the rate of
$l.29 per ounce. This would settle a
great many things. The legal tender
or mint value Of silver would be it's
market price, and the government
would no longer be IN the market as
purchaser. The inevitable effect of
free coinage would be TO restore to sill
YER bullion in this country the poten-
tial money value which it possessed
prior to 1873.
Those who oppose free coinage
point to the difference which now ex-
lists between the price of silver and
the price of gold. 1t is that very
difference which enables the wheat
and cotton Of India to beat down the
price OF those products in America.
With 10 cents worth of American
silver the British business man can
purchase dollars worth of Indian
cotton. This settles the price of the
staple, and the Southern farmers
have to accept 70 cents for dollars
worth Of cotton. But the Indian pro-
Queer can exchange his silver for
coins worth a dollar for the reason
that India has free coinage, while the
American producer is left in the ditch
on account Of the single gold stand
ard, and the British pocket has 80
cents profit.
1t IL claimed that if this country
were TO reopen the mints to silver
we would be deluged with European
silver. There are several satisfactory
replies to this. In the first place
there is no silver in Europe of any
account except the legal tender silver
which is in daily use, end this could
not be shipped to this country and re-
coined except ut tremendous loss.
In the second place, if it should be
sent here it would be coined into
standard dollars, which would enter
into circulation, or be stored in the
banks, or be employed in building up
our industries. There never can be a
plethora Of gold and silver currency
in country. such as ours.
In the third place, India, Mexico
and other countries have free coinage
and they are not deluged by Europe
an silver. When the monometallists
explain why this is 30, it will be time
enough to discuss their airy predic-
lions with some degree Of seriousness.

BROUGHAM CASTLE.
One Of the Most PICTURESQUE Ruins
In England.
It II the Pride of Westmoreland and HAa
Played Quite q Part In British His-
tory Words orth's Poem
on Lord Clifton.

The standing reproach of this coun-
try in the eyes of Europeans. that we
have not yet achieved any ruins, may
find some justification in the eyes OF
Americans who are doing" the sights
on the other side of the water Beauti-
full natural scenery, which we possess
in abundance, lacks that charm of as
ISOLATION which belongs to the crum-
bling stones of old cathedrals, old
castles and other of the works of men
who themselves have long since mold
cred into dust and of their own bodies
contributed to the sustenance of the ivy
which Grapes the walls they proudly
reared some centuries ago.
There is hardly a more picturesque
ruin in all England than Brougham
castle in the county Of Westmoreland,
was, no doubt, in the days of its glory
one of the strongest and most impor-
tant of the border fortresses. Viewed
from the west the bridge that crosses
the lamont is seen in the middle
distance. and the view is completed by
faraway glimpse of part of the Pen
nine chain. The main entrance TO the
huge editice was from the east, by an
outer gateway. surmounted by a tower,
which led to an inner gateway also sur
mounted by tower. The great tower
over the inner gateway was adorned
with turrets and hanging galleries, all
now ruinous.
Brougham castle first comes into no.
tice in the time of King John, when we
find that it is one Of the possessions of
Robert Veteripont, or Vetripont, whose
grandfather came over with william the
Conqueror. Robert Veteripont was a
favorite of King John. who, giving him
possessions in Westmoreland, created
him a baron and sheriff of Westmore-
land. Neteiponts estates, which in
