EARL OF ABERDEEN.

The Earl of Aberdeen, the new Gov
ernor- General of Canada, is a Slim
built man of middling height and
affable manner, with a full, dark beard,
and is rising six and-forty. He is the
head of the Gordons who have been
distinguishing themselves in Scottish
history e since the flood, being the
seventh earl of that ilk, and is the hus-
band of a very charming and accom-
plished wife. His grandfather was
twice Prime Minister of England. His
eldest brother, who was hopelessly
eccentric, shipped under an assumed
name as a common sailor on a West
Indian fruit ship, and was blown over
board during a gale off the coast OF
Georgia. This was in 1872, and as a
result it cost the present peer a small
fortune to establish his right to the
title. But his lordship has other claims
of distinction than those of pedigree.
Though born in the purple, with the
traditional silver spoon in his mouth,
he is great enough to be a Democrat,
and as Lord Lieutenant Of Ireland dur
ing Mr.. GIadstone's third adminlstra'

ton he emphasized this fact with
splendid success. He very plainly
showed that he had no use for the con
temptible castle hacks who till then
had run" the vice regal government,
and altogether so endeared himself to
the people that when he took his de-
parture from Dublin to give place to
the descendant of carotid cutting"
C~astlereagh they gave him an ovation
of the good old Irish sort, such as had
not not been in Ireland since the days
of O'Connell. And he deserved it.

began barking furiously at it.

banks at it."

growing red in the face.

probably drives the queerest team ever
put to harness since the golden day
when young Phaeton ran away with
his fathers celes 3ial outfit and set the
world On fire. Writing of his novel
team, the doctor says:
eff you will allow me space in your
columns I will give for the interest Of
your readers my experiments with q
team of five wild geese OF my farm in
Virginia. I was given by a friend liv-
ing at Chesapeake Bay a pair Of wild
geese, and from them raised eleven the
first year, five of which were ganders.
I commenced training them as soon as
Matched by driving them about the
yard tied together, and soon got them

ease. [ then made for them a harness,
consisting of a piece of leather to fit
over the breast and top of the neck.
The traces were fastened to that on
either side and held in place by a thin
strap that encircled the entire body
just in front Of the wings. The traces
then joined each other eighteen inches
behind the goose and were fastened to
the end of a cross bar made fast in the
center to a strap which represented
the pole or tongue Of the weight to be
drawn, they beng hitched like a five
horse team and held together by a lit
tie strap joining the two collars Of the
geese opposite each other. I then con-
structed a little wagon and began
teaching them how to draw it, which
they did with but little trouble, pulling
easily, after they were n year old,
thirty pounds spiece, or $50 pounds.
There is a lake near my place over
a mile in circumference, and I had
made for them q light skif of tin,
weighing only % pounds, and began
boat riding by letting them draw me
over the water by swimming. Then
commenced teaching them to fly, and
in a few days I could skim over the
water at the rate Of one mile a minute.

joyed. I can guide them with perfect

NO SURPLUS v

After listening to the vaporings of a
goldbug one would suppose that silver
is so plentiful and so cheap that door
knobs will soon be made of it and har-
ness trimmed with it. "Where ignor.
ance is bliss tits folly to be wise'' as a
general rule, but the exception comes
when ignorance is mischievous in its
tendencies and calls for a rebuke. A
few facts ought to be pounded into the
periphery of the goldbug's idea
crockery.
It may not be hard to convince the
single standard man that if all the gold
in the world, thatcan be used as money,
either in the shape of coin or bullion,
were converted into money, the per
capita would be only 50 81 for each per-
son on the globe. But he winces under
the equally startling fact that the same
rule applied to silver would give a per
capita of only 50 So or a total per capita
of both metals Of S. %.
When the heathens are ruled out of
the deal, and their per capita given the
civilized nations Of the world, it still
remains a small sum altogether too
small and inadequate for carrying on
Of business transactions. Dump the
entire amount into the United States,
by way of experiment, where $40 of it
is originally produced, and it would
give US a per capita none too large for
the vast business enterprises Whicha are
revolutionizing the continent and Civ
ing to American genius a place in his
tory.
It is sheer nonsense to talk about gold
as the only money of ultimate redemp
ton, when the average annual produc
ton for the past ten years has been but
u cents per capita, of which about 81
cents is used for money, the balance
going into the arts. The average an
nual production of silver for the same
period has been only 97-10 cents per
capita, leaving but four cents per capita
per annum for money uses after the
arts have been supplied. It is thus
| clear that with both gold and silver cir
culating as money, with the unlimited
coinage of each, the world will still find
use for a few paper dollars on the side
