Never IN the history Of Jefferson

The paragraph in the Democratic plat
form calling for the repeal of the tax on
the state banks appears to be having the
effect to revive in some quarters the old
Greenback theories. Here is the Rock
land Opinion, for instance, hoping that
we shall have national currency found
ed on the whole wealth of the country
and unsupported by any coin reserve.
Fifteen years ago this phrase 1.-THE whole
wealth of the people, was very COM
mon one. At every Greenback meeting
it was rolled out with great impressive
ness. A currency founded on the whole
wealth of the people had very taking
sound. But people got to asking how
they should get at that particular part Of
this whole wealth of the people when
they presented greenback for redemp-
ton, and the answer was not forthcom-
ing. A currency to be stable and COM
maid public confidence must have be-

The late Joseph Randall Tussaud was
for thirty years the only wax figure

His work is highly praised by the Pal
Mall Gazette, which says: 1.-THE late MI W..
Tussaud exhibited his first bust IN the
Academy at the age of fifteen; and dur,
ing his thirty years of work he received
encouragement from nearly all the
sovereigns in Europe. The late Emperor
Nicholas had his portrait painted as
present to Mr.. Tussaud,. and the I'm
peror Napoleon favored him IN many
ways. Princess Mary of Cambridge was
a great admirer of his busts and on sew

PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

A negro lawyer, physician and post
master have recently organized at Chica-
go the Afro American Ostrich Farming
Company with capital of $4,000. This
company begins business with 80 birds
brought from Coronado, CAL, and ex
poets to make money out of the eggs and
feathers, but more especially by exhibit
ing the ostriches for an admission fee.
They do not expect the birds to live very
long in the latitude of Chicago, but
there is large stock to draw from in
California.

An ingenious correspondent of the
Picayune writes to suggest valuable
improvement in the manufacture OF
balloons, which he reasonably thinks
would greatly lessen the dangers of
aerial navigation. His idea is simply
that the balloon be made in two or more

have buoyancy enough to enable the aero

The volume of business is constantly
increasing in the United States. New
fields for the development of industrial
activity are being opened; corporations
are multiplying; capital, greater in
amount than at any previous time in any
country, seeks profitable investment, and
the newer motors and agencies, electrici-
ty and natural gas, furnish entirely new
fields of enterprise. The population of
the country is increasing. The profits and
savings of the people find, almost excllt-
sively, employment here, while steady
current of foreign capital comes to Amer
can stock companies, breweries, mines,
ranches and mercantile establishments.
Under these circumstances the increase
of liabilities resulting therefrom should
naturally keep pace with the growth of
population, business and material wealth.
Such does not appear to be the case at
present as these figures show, estimating
| the remaining three months of 1892 on
the basis of the nine months for which
figures are at hand:

The announced intention of Gen.

making a great commotion among the
Bourbons of that region who declare
that if he undertakes to carry his purpose
into effect he will meet shower OF some
thing much harder and more dangerous
than rotten eggs. Indeed they make no
concealment of their intention to get out
their shot guns and give him warm re-
ception. On the other hand Weaver S
supporters say that if the Bourbons re-
sort to the shot gun they will do the
same, and there will be the biggest kind
of fracas. mo force bill; No negro

Gratis are yelling this at the top of their
voices their Southern brethren are sup

prived of his rights by the wicked Re-
publicans while as matter of fact instead
of being prosecuted be is prosecuting
everybody who disagrees with him poilti-

The Republican conventions in Massa-
chusetts for the nomination of candi-
dates for representatives to the state
legislature seem to make it very clear
that the Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge is the
choice of large majority of the Repub-
licans of that state for United States
Senator to succeed Mr.. Dawes. Many of
them have instructed the candidates to
vote for him and in many more there has
been strong and unmistakable senti-
ment manifested in his behalf This is
as it should be. Mr.. Lodge is one of the
ablest if not the ablest of the Republican
leaders in the Bay State, and is deserving
of all the honors which his party can be-
stow upon him.
