AlludingJto the order of Secretary Car
Isle to issue no more gold certificates
until the gold reserve has reached $780,
100000. and to the report that per cent.
bonds may be sold TO provide the
Treasury with needed funds, the Dispatch
says:
Let us hope against hope that Mr..
Carlisle is right. He is great man and
an able financier. Nevertheless we can
not but doubt the expediency of the order
above alluded TO as well as of the PROPOSE
ton TO sell per cent. bonds as a means
Of keeping up the credit Of the Govern
ment. To increase ones Indebtedness is
not generally supposed to be the best
method of strengthening ones financial or
monetary position"
Do not business men all over the world,
every day borrow money to carry on their
business and to tide them over difficult
ties?

A Patent Postage Stamp.

Almost everything new that we see
now-a-days is patented. but whoever
thought of a patent postage stamp. SUN
is the case. however, and it remained
for a Virginian to work out the bright
idea. 1t is simple enough, in fact so
simple that il is a wonder you had not
thought of such a thing long ago, but
YOU didn't. and I'm its very simplicity Is
it's beauty. The idea is merely this: Dis
continue the manufacture OF stamps OF
an odd denomination. and let the even
denomnations-twO-c stamps, for IN
stance-be composed Of two small one
cent stamps. perforated down the middle,
with the figure over the perforated line.
Then you buy only two-cent stamps,
and when you want one-cent stamp,
separate a two The two stamps as
unit are not as large as one Of the Co
lumbar stamps now I'm use. With these
stamps II is an easy matter to make the
proper change II will also prove much
more economical to the Government, for
it will reduce the contracts one half.
There are many other advantages which
will readily present themselves to tie
public The patent stamp is the work OF
Mr.. George NJ. Bright. of Abingdon.
