transfers is on the South Side and was
built up by C. B. Holmes. The first
elevated road was from Congress street
the Auditorium to Fiftieth street, and
will reach jackson park. The suburban
service of the Illinois Central (lake shore)
road accommodates vast numbers of peo-
pie. The exposition is on the South Side,
at the finish of handsome drives and
parkways. Property on the West Side
has not advanced in value. Some of the
real estate stories told on the South Side
would task a strong credulity. The
South Side always had the court house,
postoffice, the great clubs and the Art
institute. When the churches moved
out of the center after the fire they all
went southwark
The horse cars are still running on
many West Side streets, and electric
lights have been kept out by the gas
trust. All but two of the railroad depots
are ON the South Side; the stockyards
are on the South Side. Some property
eight miles from the court house south
ward is worth $500 foot; some two
miles southwest is wor& but $50 foot.
Yet these very Inequalities make the
West Side cheap place for the frugal,
keeping them out of the way of those
prouder souls who love to support lib
eral expense.
Monuments.
The monuments of Chicago are not
many, and are, with the exception of
the one erected to the memory of Doug
las, of minor value as city exhibits
The Douglas monument stands on a fine
plat overlooking the lake from high
ground at Thirty-sixth street. 1t was
finished at state expense. Both railroad
and cable cars pass this conspicuous
memorial on their way to the exposition.
In the Haymarket, on West Randolph
street, West Side, stands the monument
erected to the memory of the eight po
Gcemen killed by the bomb of May 4,
1886. The bomb was not thrown in the
Haymarket or where the monumen;
stands. The spot lies to the right of the
monument and 200 feet into the cross
street called Desplaines, and commonly
pronounced as it is spelled. The cele-
brated meeting of revolutionists was
held still farther away.
The other public monuments are near
ly all in Lincoln park. The great eques-
trian statue of General Grant stands
on rude stone structure. st. Gaudens'
statue of Lincoln is highly praised and
loudly condemned, according to the taste
of the visitor. 1t represents Lincoln in
modern attire, risen from stone chair,
reading the emancipation proclamation.
There is beautiful group of Indians,
and there are handsome effigies of Lin
naus, Schiller and La Sale. Sheridan
is to have monument in Union park,
on the West Side.
Great Buildings.
The visitor will do himself an injus-
tice, if he be from rural districts, if he
do not carefully inspect at least dozen
of the celebrated tall buildings of Chi
cago. Here science and art have united,
with wondrous profusion of means, to
delight the eye and bring comfort to the
occupant. In the Auditorium, for m
stance are 30 600 600 nieces of Roman

Lord Harrington, returned to its
habituaI fidelity to the Liberal Party.
The result, however, thouahatriumph
for the party as a party,is almost a de-
feat for Home-rule, Mr. MAIDEN and
his friends finding It necessary to
white away its meaning until, bat
for the word "Parliament,'' we could
almost vote it ourselves. The Ros-
sendale Liberals obviously accepted
an Irish Parliament as a sort Of
Highway Board with enlarged pow
ers. We should not despair of Mr..
Maden's vote when the next Liberal
secession occurs, as it will occur on
the production of the Bill.
General Menabrea has resigned his
post as Italian Ambassador in Paris,
on account of domestic misfortunes,
and NJ. de Blowitz seizes the occasion
to reveal a bit of secret history. In
1867, it appears, Napoleon Ill, irri-
tated by Garibaldis threats against
Rome, had decided to sever Naples
and part of the Pontifcal States from
Italy, and had, in an autograph
letter to Victor Emanuel, informed
him of his intention. The letter is
textually given. The King, intensely
excited, asked advice from General
Menabrea, then at the head Of an
I'D interim Ministry, and the General
advised him 10 risk all by arresting
Garibaldi in the midst Of his Yolun-
teers, and then plainly defying the
Emperor Of the French. Victor
Emanuel accepted the advice, Carl
baldi submitted, and the King in
formed Napoleon Of the fact in a
letter ending in these proud words
'God save the Kingdom from any dis
ruption. But il such an attempt

On Thursday, a second message
was sent, in which the President
informed Congress- that a Note had
been received from the CHILEAN Mia
lister dated January 23rd, but not
delivered at the State Department
until after II o'clock noon on the
25th," and not translated, or its
receipt notified to the President, until
late in the afternoon of that day.
In this Note the CHILEAN Govern
ment withdraws, with acceptable
expressions of regret, the offensive
Note Of Senior Malta Of December
18th, and also the request for the
recall of Mr.. Egan." The President
ends by assuring Congress that he is
now convinced that the question a
be settled satisfactorily "by the usu-
al methods, and without special
powers from Congress-" It must be
admitted that p1imd fucje there is
something unsatisfactory in this X

ry. An exceedingly ugly look is,
however, given to the transaction if
we are to believe the declaration Of
q New York Congressman, Mr.. de
Witt Warner, who declares that the
Gillian Minister communicated the
sense of The CHILEAN Note to the
President before the despatch of the
message, and implored him not to
send it. We trust sincerely that
there is no truth in this very discred-
liable story.

whether there be any ground for
PREPARATION, and in what shape it
should be made. The police are ex-
cused, on the ground that the civil
war was only just over, and it is
intimated that the request for Mr..
Egan's withdr avail will not be press
ed. The Note ends by the usual
declarations of goodwill. The Chill
ian incident is thus closed, and we
shall hear no more of rumours of
war betweenthe two Republics.

The report of the Registrar-Gen-
eral published on Wednesday shows
that there was no abatement, but
rather an increase in the infuen-
"a, during tie week ending last Sat
urday. For London the total death
rate per thousand was 46, an increase
Of 6 since the last report. The deaths
specially ascribed to influenza were
500, as against 271 in the previous
week, and 10 five weeks ago. The
total deaths in London during the
week were 3,761, and the total births
1923. This is 1862 above the aver
age Of deaths, and 258 below the
average Of births. Br ghton enjoys
the unenviable position Of having the
highest deathIate per thousand of
any Of the great towns-namely 600.
In Portsmouth the death rate is de-
clining, being now only 44'3. Hud-
dersfield is the healthiest town, with
a death-rate of17.3. In spite of these
figures, there is no panic, probably
because influenza so closely resem-
bles in externals an ordinary fever
ish cold. There seems, too, a general
impression that the virulence of the
epidemic is now abating, and though
this not borne out by the figures, it
may be true. They refer to the
safe ofLondon a week ago, and not
to its present condition.

Why Gold is Exported.
IRlode.' Journal qf nanling.l


The tendency to the expectation Of
gold from the United States continues
with far more pertinacity than ever
before. Why this Ia 10 Is not at all
mysterious. In tho first place the
currency-meaning by this the aggre-
gate masses OF money used for purposes
Of exchAnge--is now excessive ut most,
" not ut all seasons Of the year; and
secondly, gold forms the portion OF 1t
most desirable 10 foreigners. The
Gresham law, that the inferior cur
reucy will always drive out the su.
as II was In the time OF the man whose
name 1t bears.
Real money bias two functions. II
furnishes standard OF value, and II 10
medium OF exchange. The thing by
which value Is measured must have
real value Itself. Therefore, coins OF
the precious metals are the only real
money that can perform all the func.
tons OF money. Paper repre-
sentatives OF real money can very
well perform the one iunotion--thnt
Of furnishing medium OF exchange.
But when this function Is per.
formed, then those who desire to
turn into something tangible the re-
suits Of exchange transactions desire
real money. Silver coin is real money
rs much rs gold coin, to the extent
that II has real value, But n large
portion OF the nominal value OF our
silver coin today Is based, not on the
real value OF the silver contained In the
coin, but upon credit given 10 II by
law. Law can give credit 10 anything,
but only TO tho extent OF tho credit OF
the government that enarts the law.
The credit OF government, as far as
its paper money is concerned, Is only
good within Its own boundaries; and TO
pay debts outside, gold and silver ana
other commodities are alone available.
When commodities are not wanted,
the precious metals are always takenat
their real or market value. The groat
falling on in the market price OF silver
has deprecated Il rs a money metal in
theeyes Of mankind, and consequently
gold, II II can be obtained, IL always
taken In preference.
