rh.Inheritance Tax.

Nearly every country in the world
has an inheritance tax as part OF its
fiscal system, and in many countries
Mr.. Gould's estate would have paid
much more than 5000, 600. In France
and Italy the share of the state
would have been about 81 500, OOO; IN
England, nearly SO, 900, 900; in Onta-
rio or Victoria, more than 50, oOO, OoO.
IN most of the American common
wealths. on The other hand, there
would have been no tax whatever,
though in a few States the compare
lively small requests to the brother
and sister would have been taxable,
and If Mr.. Gould had lived In Chi
cago his estate would have paid some
s72, 900 toward the support of the
Cook County Probate Court. If he
had died two years ago, his estate
would have paid no tax in New York,
for it was only in 1891 that the Legis-
lature imposed the per cent. tax on
the direct inheritances Of personal
property in the case Of estates ex-
ceeding $4,000 in value. Yet the
| estates Of two or three other rich
New-Yorkers who died after the in
PRODUCTION of the per cent. collat
eral inheritance tax in 1885 have con-
tributed very respectable amounts tc
the State Treasury. The estate Of
Mrs. At. Stewart has paid more
than 5000, 900, and that of Henriettf
A. Lenox more than 5000, 600, while
the collateral requests of William IL
Vanderbilt have yielded take
amounting to $751; 900. The Goult
estate will certainly pay much NOR
than any of these, though the amour
can not be accurately stated until tn
property has been appraised. In
, heirs will probably take advantage o
the 5 per cent. discount for paymen
| of the tax within six months, an
something like $4,000 will be re

more or less resemble daisies. Such
spots as are dotted regularly over the
muslin are easiest to manage, and
therefore usually chosen. The fol-
lowing shows more elaborate way OF
working the flowers when the spots
are scattered among the details OF
leafy, branching pattern. The spots
are covered with French knots; the
rays of the flowers are worked with
spike stitches placed on each side OF
a straight line of split stitch. A
good effect may also be gained by
working these sections with feather
veining, such as is used in many
kinds of linen embroidery for the
midribs of leaves and in similar
places This work is even prettier
when a pale shade of pink or blue is
used for the flowers than when the
customary white filoselle is employed,
which is rather apt to pass for a por'
tion of the pattern already on the
muslin

The Marseilles Hymn.

The famous French national song
had singular origin. Early in 1872,
during the first French revolution, a
column Of volunteers was about leav-
ing Strasburg, and the Mayor gave
them banquet, and asked a young
officer named Rouget de Lisle to COM
pose a song In their honor. He con-
sented, and in the course of single
night produced the song and the tune
to which it is sung. 1t was received
with great enthusiasm, and. by its
means the column was increased
from 600 to 1000. 1t was soon sung
by the whole army of the north, but
was still unknown in Paris. In July
the youth of Marseilles were sum-
moned to Paris, and they came sing
ing this hymn. The Parisians were
electrified, and they gave it the name
Of the "Marseillaise," which it has
borne ever since. 1t is sung with true
French enthusiasm on every inspiring
occasion.
The following is translation OF
the hymn:
THE MARsEILLEs HYMN
Ye sons of France, awake to glory!
Hark bark, what myriads bid you rise
Your, children, wives, and grandsireS
hoarY-
Behold their tears and hear their cries
Shall hateful tyrants, mischief breeding.
With hreling hosts, a rufffan band,
Alright and desolate the land
While liberty and peace lie bleeding2
To arms! to arms ye bravel
The avenginy sword unsheathe!
March on march on! all hearts resolved
On victory or death!
"Now. now, the dangerous storm is rolling
Which treacherous kings confederate
raise;
The dogs OF war, let loose, are bowling,
And 10! our fields and cities blaze,
And shall we basely view the ruin,
While lawless force with guilty stride,
Spreads deso,ation fer and wide,
With crimes and blood his hams mbru
ingP
with luxury and pride surrounding,
The bold, iusatiate despots dare
Their thirst of gold and lower unboun led
To mete and vend the light and air,
Like beasts OF burden would they load US
Like gods would bid their slaves adore
But man is man, and who is moref
Then shall they longer lash and goad usf
20 Liberty, can man resign thee,
Once having felt thy generous flame?
Can DUNGEONS. bolts, or bars conhne thee
Or whips thy noble spirit tanner
Too long the world has wept bewailing,
That Falsehood's dagger tyrants Weld,
But Freedom is our sword and shield,
And all their arts are unavaillns"

A Better Feeling on Wall strCet-Issue
Clearing House Certificates.

A Better Feeling on Wall stroet-Issue OF
Clearing House Certificates.
NEW YoRE, July 10,-The clearing
house issued to-day s25OOOO worth of
loan certificates. The bank taking
them deposited the collateral tho last
week, but will not call for the certia-
cotes until tomorrow morning
The largest banks in Wall street re-
port slight demand for currency from
the west, all small amounts, which Ia
counterbalanced by a return Of curren-
cy to Now York from several western
cities in the settlement OF balances, so
that the amount OF currency sent away
is reduced to minimum. Five OF the
principal banks report that merchants
are taking care OF their paper and not
asking for an extension. Generally
speaking, the presidents OF these banks
regard the situation as alittle improved.
One well.known bank president said no
did not feel quarter part 30 discour-
aged over the fall in silver as he did
over the bad condition OF the iron in-
dustry. He thought the west was des-
tined to suffer far more on account OF
iron than silver.
The banks holding drafts on the sub
treasury, instead Of sending them
through the clearing house, presented
then direct to-day in order to obtain
currency. The stb-treasury, however,
redeemed them in gold and in that way
paid out over 100000. Gold is incon-
venient to handle, and the object in
using II was to force tho drafts through
the regular channel For another thing,
by the direct presentation OF drafts, the
sub-treasury was left creditor at the
clearing house for 100000.
The clearing house did not have that
much cash on hand, and as loan cortia-
Gates could not be utilized in settling
an obligation to the government, it was
necessary to exchange certificates for
funds with banks to make up the re-
quired amount. Banks report scarcity
OF billg, the result OF tho recent heavy
shipments to interior points and with
drawals by savings institutions. Inter-
est payments by the sub.treasury to-day
were $4,000.

WoRLD's FAIR GROUNDS, CHICAGO, July
lO.-That Emperor William, OF Ger
many, is seriously considering the i'd
visibility OF visiting the Worlds Fair
there is little doubt. An attacho OF the
German commission this morning gave
It out that the department OF state OF
the German government addressed u
letter TO the German minister ut Wash
ington several weeks ago dlrscting MIN
to make inquiry Of all the German con.
suls in America as to how they thought
the emperor would be received should
he come here,
"Replles 10 nearly all these letters OF
inquiry have been received" said the
aLtache, "and they were almost unanl'
nous in the statement that the en-
peror would be accorded most friend
" and hearty welcome, Nearly every
one OF the consuls spoke in favor Of MS
coming. His coming now depends, l
think, largely upon whether the army
bill passes. Should 1t pass am conf
dent he will come. According to press
reports he has majority OF twenty in
the German parliament, aud 1t looks as
though the bill will pass"
Continuing, he said the kaiser's wish
to see the fair was well known. But II
it were certain that he could come he
would scarcely do so before the finish
Of the army manuuyres in September;
Herr Wermuth, the German imperial
commissioner, would say nothing re-
garding the letters OF inquiry to the
German consuls Ia America. He said
he had heard nothing officially, and
would not until he reached Berlin,
about the end OF this month.
