THE statement mado 81 Secretary Car
Isle and Published in 0rr dispatches ou
wednesday relative 20 rhc working of the
/ sherman silver purchase act should Do
. etrcn very careful consideration hy every
ono who takes an interest ia the silver
question From this statement 30 appears
. that frora 1872 until 1873, when the coin.
T age Of silver dollars was stopped by act OF
/ congress. there was coined in oar minis
. sos. $50 silver dollars.
+ ia 1875 the coinage OF silver doll rs was
resumed under the Bland-Allison act.
Between that date and July Il, 1890,
there was coined S37s. l66.793 In addi-
ton 20 that sum there was coined
/ 81, O7S. AZ in trade dollars. Under the act
Of july "a. 1890. there has been coined
81. 04g. $50 making a total Of S4l9, 294 ,S35
in silver dollars coined since 1878 In the
last fifteen years, therefore, there have
been more than fifty times as many silver
dollars coined as We're coined in the
cighty-six years prior to 1878.
But all the silver dollars coined are not
in circulation. The amount in circulation
is about S5S,Ol6,OO9 a little more than a
fourth of the amount coined. The bal
ance Of the silver dollars are locked up in
the treasury vaults, and the people don
seem to be particularly anxious to have
them put into circulation,
But the silver dollars locked up in the
treasury are not all the silver that the
government has. Under the Sherman
silver purchase act the government is re
quired to buy 100000 ounces of silver
bullion each month, and to issue treasury
notes for it, payable in coin. In accordance
with that requirement, the government
has on hand silver bullion for which it
has paid STA, 299, 900 At the present
market price of silver this silver bullion
is now worth $lO3, All, 1856, or about s1O,-
600 less than it cost.
The coin treasury notes paid for silver
bullion keep coming back into the treasury,
and gold is paid out for them From May
81 last year to May this year, the amount
of such notes paid out for silver bullion
was $40 961 ,1S4, and the amount of these
notes that were paid in gold was S47, 745,
173. 1t will be seen from this that all the
silver purchased during the year in ques-
ton was paid for in gold, with the excep-
ton of little over s., 100000 worth.
The question is sometimes asked why
these coin notes are not paid in silver
dollars. The reason is that gold is de-
manded. If it were refused the proba-
bilities are that confidence in the silver
dollar would be at once shaken, and it
would cease to pass at its face value. 1t
being the policy of the government to
maintain the parity between gold and
silver the Secretary of the Treasury pays
gold for coin notes whenever gold is de-
manded. In no other way could he main
tain the parity between the two metals.

The Bethel Pamphlet.

There lived, many years ago, in Ireland, a
barrister Of the name Of Bethel who was
rather proud of his attachments, and who
liked to show them off in the writing OF
pamphlets, says Harper'S Young People. One
of these, said by those who have seen it to be
anything but valuable, was upon, the subject
of the union between Ireland and England

after the pubhcatiOn-of his pamphlet. Bethel
was asked by him why he had not informed
him of its appearance.

in the treasury, and hercvenues exceeded
the expenses. Did that "billion dollar

bic quarters for government employees
was as apparent then as it is now. Why
was not some provision for their comfort

The money was used to capture the sol

Under the circumstances the talk of

goes, which IA very likely founded upon an

been considerably modernized IN the long
time which has lapsed-wlth one Of his body

partridge passed quite high over their heads.

Charles, killed the PARTRIDGE"
1t was l. said the guard.
Thou lest, scoundreli' exclaimed the
emperor.
He had hardly spoken when the guard
struck him so severe blow in the face that
he could not keep his feet.
Charles first movement was to point his
gun straight at the audaCiOus guard and pull
the trigger; but the weapon had Just been dis
charged, and had not been reloaded.
While the emperor was relOading he de-
cided that he would not shoot the guard on
the spot. He sent him 10 prison instead,
with orders to prepare for his execution.
Your fault is the greater, said the en-
peror. because there was doubt whether
thou didst really kill the bird. ~"
- here Is no doubt sire in my mind" said
the guard. VIII you permit me to-see the
blrd?'
The partridge was brought and the guard
showed the emperor that it had been killed
with a ball from his rifle. The. emperor had
been using bird shot all day.
The emperor felt a little remorse at this
but did not countermand his order for the
guard death; but at the last moment he had
the man brought before him.

mind, but presently he said;
