RE1LLY's DEFENCE.
He Explains why He Apparently Voted for
Free Coinage.


Hon. James b. Reilly, Congressman
from this district, in letter TO q friend,
writes
| don't think the situation as it existed
here is clearly understood. The committee
had reported two bills, one by the majority,
to which there were several amendments
pending, and substitute reported by the
minority, providing for the holding of al
International Money Conference, with
view of securing permanence in the
value eff gold and silver, at common
coinage ratio through international agree
ments providing for the enlarged monetary
use of silver, and for giving to that metal
equal mintage rights with gold.
The only question about this whole mat
ter is the ability of the United States alone
to maintain the Two metals on a parity, ana
as We are large producers of this metal, and
as it is used to-day exclusively as money by
over 800 0C0 600 of the worlds inhabitants,
my judgment is that we ought not to take
any action that is calculated to debase or
discredit the metal, but upon the contrary,
that our own self interest dictates that we
should do all in our power to advance it,
All parties are in favor Of bi-metslic cur
rency, and have so declared in their plat
forms. Indeed there is no diversity Of
opinion ON this question, and the only
thing to be considered is how best to accom-
plish it.

substitute report by the minority, believing
it to be the wisest aud best cour.e to pursue.
aud could not vote lor the motion to table
the whole subject, thus giving it a rebuke,
and indicating our own lack OF Coz fdence
in silver as II money metal, and L am
satisfied that had tue question come to II

adopted by the House. The motion to

Closeness of the vote surprised every body,

A Remarkable Career.

Robert Harvey, of England, is quite
remarkable man. One of thirteen chill
dren of an assistant overseer of Truro,
he started life in an engineering firm at
thirty-fve cents week. and when he
came of age was earning 81. A little time
after, his firm built some machinery for
South America, and young Harvey took
SO much interest in its construction that
he attracted the attention of the owners,
who took him out to superintend the
fitting up, under three-years' agreement,
at one hundred and fifty dollars month
salary. at the end of this term he picked
up his traps and made for Peru, where
he cast about for a job, and got one at
two hundred dollars month. Then
came the .'discovery" of the nitrate
fields, and young Harvey showed his
spirit by seeking and obtaining the posi-
ton of inspector general of the nitrate
fields for the Government of Peru, at a
salary OF fifteen thousand dollars year.
Then came the war. He was taken pris-
oner, put on board one of the Chilian
iionclads, and condemned to death-no
one knows what for. This did not prove
very great obstacle to Robert, for he
argued the Chilian Government into be-
lieving him invaluable in the working of
the "fields," and they straightway par
dQned him and installed him in his
t5smer position, under the new GoycFas
ment, at an increased salary of twenty
five thousand dollars a year. Enter
Colonel North, sent over by Fowler, of
Leeds, to fit up engines. North and
Harvey join forces, discover other nitrate
fields unknown to the Peruvians and un-
captured by the Chilians, start large nj
trate and iodine works, and prosper. Re-
turn to England, float their companies
for the procuring and working, etc., of
the Chilian properties, become million
aires, and, in Robert Harveys case, pur
chase sumptuous mansion at Palate
Gate, and ''Dundridge, in South Devon,
become Justice of the Peace for til ,
County, Deputy-Lieutenant for the Cit.
of London, and an aspirant for political
fame. Robert Harvey, in all his COM
merciai transactions, is as straight" as
the rivets he handled as lad. He
honors all men, fears none, has an ac-
complished and charming wife, and no
children - Yankee Blade

New Mode of Catching Elephants.

The Indian mode of catching elephants
by driving them into Enclosures formed
of felled trees in the forests seems likely
to be definitively abandoned by the
Madras Government in favor of what is
known as the pit system. The forest
officers are of opinion that if the pits are
properly constructed and due precautions
are taken to break the fall of the animals
the pitfall method of capture is the less
liable of the two to cause injury and
mortality. y.-Neu York Commercial Adcer-

WINTER LILACS.

A bunch of lilacs there by the door,
These and no morel
Delicate. lly-white, like the new snow
Falling below;
Afriend saw the flowers and brought them
to me-
As one who should see
A rife, glove just dropped and returned
While loving thought burned.
Dark all day was that room of mine
Till those flowers divine
Into my darkness brought their own light,
And back to the sight.
OF my spirit the fairest days of June
And the brooklet's tune;
Where the garden-door was left open wide.
While by my side
One sat, who, raising his eyes from the book
With the old fond look,
Asked if loved not indeed that page
And the words of the sage.
And as we spoke the cool blue sky.
The robin nigh,
The dropping blossoms of locust-trees
Humming with bees,
The budding garden, the seasons calm,
Dropt their own balm.
ALL these, my friend, were brought back to
me,
Like tide of the sea,
When out of winter and into my room
Came summers bloom;
The flowers reopened those shining gates
Where the soul waits
Many and many day IN vain,
While in therain
We stand, and, doubling the future at last
Forget the past
So you will believe what posy may do,
When friends are true,
For the sick at heart in the wintry days,
When nothing allays
The restless hunger, the tears nat start
The weary smart,
But the old, old love and the summer huSb
And the lilac bush.

One of the most interesting expert
ences of the United States troopers is
patrol duty in the Yosemite reservation.
Captain A. E. Wood, of the Fourth Cav.
airy, who recently returned to San Fran
cisco from a tour of this attractive
region, SAYS that he had very lively
time of it keeping the reservation clear
of cattle. Until the Government inter
fered, the herders took i'll as many as
1000 cattle and 80, 900 sheep every sum-
mer for pasture. This has all been
stopped. 1t is the duty of the soldiers to
keep on the trot in every part OF the re-
servation, turn the herds back and warn
owners not to trespass. But, in spite
of this vigilance, cattle slip in. The
herders are promptly arrested and es-
corted to the other side of the reserva-
ton, a journey which takes five days.
Meanwhile their focks are unprotected,
and bears and wolves attack the animals
and kill them. By the time the herder
secures permit, gets his flock together
and leads them out of the reservation, he
is taught salutary, if a severe, lesson.
Another duty of the troopers is to lay
out trails. Captain Wood had the au-
thofity to hire guide, but he found no
one who was familiar with the wild
country, and explored it himself. Dur
ing the summer the soldiers laid GU,
twenty five miles of trail passable to
mounted men, often over mountains that
had been declared inaccessible.

A crop statistician in Kansas calcu-
lates our wheat crop for 1891 at 6o0,-
900, 900 bushels, of which 255, 900, 900
will be available for export. To this
exportable surplus Canada may add 49,
900, 600 bushels, and he estimates the
surplus of other wheat-exporting coun-
ries at an amount sufficient to raise the
aggregate to 377, 900, 900 bushels. On
the other hand he figures the require
ments of countries that have to import
wheat in excess of their own production
at 455, 600, 900 bushels, leaving a de-
ficlency 100000 bushels. This, in
the opinion of the Epoch, is more cheering
to our farmers than to the populations OF
wheat at-importiug countries. But the
prospect in the shortage of rye, so largely
used for food In European countries, is
far more serious This statistician calcu-
lates the requirements ofimporting coun'
tries, including Russia, at 335, 900, 00O
bushels, while the surplus of other
countries for export is only 30, 900, 900
bushels. This must open the way to a
largely increased consumption of Indian
corn.

The genius of Yankeeland is lrrepres-
sible, boasts the Chicago Herald. "Ger-
many has at last opened her arms to re-
ceive American corn as an article of
food, and corn dodgers and johnny cake
will soon become familiar articles upon
the tables of the Teutonic empire. This
is gigantic stride toward the unifcation
of the human race. These articles, in
conjunction with 'hog and hominy,
will tend to strengthen the friendly ties
between Germany and the United States
and promote that harmony which shall
result in fastening the advent of that
period when the sword shall be beaten
into a plowshare and the spear into a
pruning hook, and nations shall not
learn war any more, but devote their
time to the cultivation of the ethics of

A New Feyer-HOuse.

Tropical countries have been advised
to establish cold greenhouses as hos
pitfalls. This idea has resulted from the
remarkable success of Cuban physician,
who has been treating yellow fever by
keeping the patients in artificially cooled
rooms. 1t is proposed that each town in
districts liable to epidemics of this dis
ease shall build great glass house for
the fever victims. Then houses would
be artiicially cooled, and plants OF cold
and temperate regions would be grown
in them.- 7rentos (M, ~ american.

People on Wheels.

II is interesting to observe how the
habit of moving about increases with
the facilities for gratifying it. When
street railways were first introduced they
were intended to accommodate the linn
tied number of business men who lived
II half mile or mile from the counting
rooms and women who lived such dis
tance from the retail stores, and slow
going horse-car was fully equal to the
easy task of dragging the limited number
of persons about. But the insignificant
enterprise has grown into proportions
that its projectors were not able to con-
ceive at the beginning. The horse-car
roads alone of New York City carried
last year 162, 900, 900 passengers. This
is 80, 900, 900 more than they carried in
the year 1876, when the first elevated
railroad was built, so that the elevated
roads which, it was thought, would de-
stroy the business of the horse-cars have
not had any such effect. 1t might be
thought that, with 1862, 900, 900 passen-
gers carried on the surface roads, there
would be none left for the elevated ways,
and their cars would run empty. And
yet the elevated roads have had all they
could do also. They carried last year
201, 900, 900 passengers, making total
of 1868, 900, 900 for both systems. This
is 240 times the population of the me-
tropolis. SO that there we're 240 trips
for every inhabitant. The per capita
number of trips in 1880 was 175. At
this rate it will be only few years be-
fore the city will exhibit the phenomena
of a population on wheels. Louis

Now that students of the art of living
are crying out for new meat to relieve
the inevitable recourse to beef and NUT
ton, veal and lamb, it is remembered by
scholars that Mncenas, the rich Roman
patron of the poet Horace, delighted in
the flesh of the donkey and served wild
ass from Africa as far greater delicacy
than venison.
