 Inc processes by which nature forms accumulatiOns of silver are very interesting. It must be re- membered that the earth's crust Is full of water. which percolates every where through the rocks, making so- lutions of clements obtained from them These chemical solutions take up small particles of the precious metal which they find scattered here and there.

 Then they rush upward, picking up the bits of metal as they go. Nat urally heat assists the performance of this operation. Now and then the streams thus formed, perpetually flowing hither and thither below ground, pass through cracks or cavi- ties in the rocks, where they deposit their loads of silver. This is kept up for a great length of time, perhaps thousands of years, until the Assure or pocket is filled up. Crannies per meating the stony mass in every di- rection may become filed with the metal. or occasionally a chamber may be stored full of it, as if a myriad hands were fetching the treasure from all sides and hiding away a future bonanza for some lucky prospoctor to discover in an other age.

The opening itself was through a cave, the existence of which was re. vealed to the saint by Christ, who in. formed tho good Patrick that any one with the moral courage to 90 down into the cavern would be saved the bangs of the real 'purgatory'' after death. Patrick built a mon astery at the entrance of his earthly ''purgatory" and secured the way to the pit by an iron gate provided with strong chains and locks of peculiar and intricate workmanship. Lough Derg. next to Jerusalem, was the most celebrated spot on earth during the Middle Ages. Thousands visited

 geroas Thing Co This Porkes.
 About eieTen years ago a famous bog of almost superporEne intollt geace was attacAoa to the imperial circus at St Petersburg, where it basked in the sunshine of fashionable favor throughout two gay winter seasons. This sagacious creature, at once q ready reckoner, fortune teller R'Ad deft executioner of card tricks, was the property of one Tanti. a famous Italian clown, who had brought 1t up from infancy and taught 1t all its accomplishments
 One night he and his pig wero bidden to a gathering of young officers of the Russian Guard sun ping together after the performance. and were called upon to repeat the programme of the evening of course on payment of a handsome fee. At the conclusion of the show one of the officers offered Tanti 1000 rubles for his pig. The clown declined to sell, pointing out that the docile and clever animal constituted his chief source of income, and that, more over, he was far too fond of 1t to part from it. Upon this the officers proceeded to tempt him by outhid- ding one another until they ran the price up to 6,000 rubles-
 This sum, the equivalent of over e7O0, and the reflection that he could probably train another pig to replace the one thus exorbitantly valued, finally induced Tanti to accept the offer, little thinking to what dismal fate he thereby consigned his pet Next day the luckless animal was slaughtered by order of it's purchaser and sent to the clowns lodging with the message that mo doubt Signor Tanti would like to taste porker which had been so profitable to him in life and death alike
 The whole grim story. equally dis. creditable to all concerned in 1t. got wind in St Petersburg and made @ painful impression upon Russian so ciety. A severe reprimand was ad- ministered to the officer whose cruel freak had caused the death of Q pub lie favorite, and Tanti's popularity sensibly declined Oddly enough, a few months later he was fired al while cutting capers in the ring by an eccentric Polish nobleman, whose bullet just missed the clown, bury, ing itself in the sawdust at his feet, and causing him such alright that he fed from the circus like one de mented.
 When interrogated as to the motive of his extraordinary conduct the Sarmatian magnate-a well known sportsman and patron of the circus calmly replied that having been much diverted by the clowns feats, he felt himself bound to fire a salute in Tanti's honor" Shortly after ward the recipient of this strange compliment quilted Russia London Telegraph.

than governments notes. The great
merit of the latter was their security
The government has received from the
taxation of national banks since the or
ganization of the system the round sun
of $780, 10000. at appears, therefore,
that if there had never been any bon,ft
issued for national bank notes the gov
eminent would have lost less tnaa 81
million dollars by redeemipg the notes
OF all failed banks" He did not think
the issue of bouds was necessary for Sc
carity, and 1t certainly did not admit OF
elasticity. Both of these virtues IN
money he claimed could be obtained 10y
accepting the Scotch system of unlimi-
ted liability of the shareholders OF banks
for their note issues. Thus it has hap
pened that thousands OF notes of failed
banks in Scotland have always been re-
ceived by the other banks at par and
have never deprecated, although they
have neither bonds requisite nor safety
fund behind them.
IF a bank note system Is both elastic
and secure, we have every requisite OF a
perfect system. The reason that bank
notes are preferable is that they are con-
stantly balancing each other in trade,
Just as checks do. In other words, they
carry themselves without the use Of
gold. Gold is nsed AS "a touchstoLe al
the time, but it's actual transfer is re
CURED only to settle balances of interna
tional trade"
Mr.. White then went ON to show why
the national banking act must be gotter
rid of, if a flexible currency is secured
in SO far AS the "bond security clause j!
concerned, saying:
"If bond security was dispensed witt
and it's place taken 10y either a safet,
fund, unlimited liability or bank consoIi
d~ation." an elastic currency would b.
secured.
