Dynamite in an Engine Cabs Coal.

PARIS, April 28.--At Iaon, in the De- partment of Aisne, railway stoker found a package of five dynamite cart ridges in the cab containing the coals. The fire under the boiler was extinguish- cd at once and the locomotive was switched on a side track. Men were set to work picking the coals, one by one, from the cab, but no more dynamite was found. The train to which the To- comotive was attached is an express, and was carrying 45 passengers. The cart ridges were sufficient to blow the loco motive and cab to atoms, and had they been exploded few of the passengers would have escaped death.

The LohIxh vallsy's New Line.

BUFFALO, N. Y., April ,2S.-It is un- derstood that the LahiGh Valleys new line into Buffalo will not be opened for traffic for at least two months to come, and in the meantime the company will continue to use the Erie tracks as they have been doing for several years. Be- fore the road passed into the control of the Reading the intention was to have the formal opening some time next month. This is now deemed impolitic and unwise, as the management is con vinced that the rush of traffic will be so great that the line cannot be satisfactor- fly operated.

INTRINSIC VALUE.

L@UBAGuA CuuSAU1tOAO VosUAVV w AD9OAA~~
without q correct understanding Of terms.
Intrinsic value, when correctly under
stood, will destroy many Of the fsllacioua
arguments advanced against paper mon
ey. Mr.. 8. J. Ramsey, in your last issue,
certainly discusses 1t candldly.
Let us define the two words separately
before we unite them in matrimony. In
trinsic, internal; inward; hence true, In
heFent. Now, what is valuee VaIuc
simply expresses the relation of things in
erchGnge. Such relation cannot be In
trhsic, that ls, inherent In things TO be
exchanged; If It were It would become a
property OF the things, and the value Of
things would always bear the same rela-
ton to each other. Properties Of thing
are always intrinsic, and never change.
II intrinsic value was property Of a
commodity, lts value would alwsy be the
same Wheat being valued at 81 o
bushel, equals, say, the value Of q SUCK
ing pig. Properties Of 9 thing never
change; hence, the bushel Of wheat is al
ways valued at 81, and the sucking pig
at 81. These values would never change.
ANY farmer knows that this ls absurd,
hence, value Is not intrinsic, but extrin-
sic and ideal. Therefore, there Is no
such thing as intrinsic value. Value Is
the esteem we have for things in COM
parison. Il Is the production Of the
mind. We all know how the mind
changes, and with 1t our ideas of value.
Gold has no intrinsic value. The rea-
SON why 25S grains Of gold Is always
worth 81 is because 1t has free coinage
at that rate. Demonetize gold all over
the world, and so or rs per cent. Of its
value would depart. Give free coinage
to pigs ears at $5 each and they will
never be worth less than $5.
Is,it necessary that the thing that car
ries the stamp Of money should possess
valueH It 10 not. John Stuart Mil says:
"Itseems to be the essential part Of the
the idea OF money that 1t be legal ten
der; Inconvertsble paper that ls q legel
tender is universally admitted to be
money" Men mistake the gold and
silver In money for the money, when it is
only q glamour; the denomination
stamped on the metals is the money, and
money Is but counter Of valueS-s
clearing house for all the people. If q
NAH has money, and he got 1t honestly, it
Is an Indication that he has parted with
service or commodities equal In value TO
the denominations stamped upon the
paper or metal pieces. A farmer sells
wheat for money, q mere bagAtelle; the
grain merchant receives wealth and cam
cells the debt with money, which acts as
q clearing house for him. The farmeE
has no wealth to show for his wheat un-
I'll he exchanges his money for the things
he wants; the money cancels the debt
and il acts as q clearing house for him.
