career of American currency, and to it,
present useful and honorable experience in
order To illustrate and emphasize the power
and the duty of the government IN furnish
ing q sound. reliable and constitutional
none, fo- the use Of the people.
Coming to the Sherman xct, he said /;
The Sherman act emanated from enemies
of silver money, and its purpose vas to de-
grade, dishonor and disgrsce this one Of
the precious metals until il could no longer
holi its place With gold - . part of the
specie b.sis of this country and Of the
world.
In reducing silver TO . merchantable
commodity placing it on level with corn,
wb. 1t !s,otton, tobacco. and other prodac-
tions of the field and farm; issuing treas
ury certificates on it according to its mar
ket value there could be but one effect
1A the rank. dignity, honor and
stability of silver A. one OF
he great money metAls; il reeled
and staggered under the blow until nov iis
enemies predict with joy its speedy and
total destruction.
As a firm. unfaltering believer in bi
metallism. and as an undertaking supporter
Of the coinage and use of both gold and
silver as the standard money Of the coun-
try without discriminating against either
metal. l voted against the passage OF the
Sherman act, and for the same reasons l
shall vote for its repeal.
at weakens and vitiates our entire finAn-
cisl ~ stem and destroys confidence in all
business transactions every hour II remains
a part of cur laws.
s.I.et it be distinctly understood, not only
by the American people Of every class cali
ing and condition, but also by the people of
every nation with whom We have CONNER
cial relations. that fair and honest ratio
will be established and maintained by the
American Congress and that neither the one
nor the other of the two metals will be dis
missed from the public service"

LONDON, Aug. 22-In the honsc Of com
mons yesterday Mr.. Gladstone moved the
adoption Of the resolution. notice Of
which WIS given on Friday last, to apply
the closure to the report stage of tho home
rule bill on Friday next.
Joseph Chamberlain then submitted his
amendment declaring that the govern
neDt's proposal was calculated 10 degrade
the house into voting machine, depriv-
ing the British majority Of Its constitu-
tional rights, and ought therefore TO 10
withdrawn.
In speaking to his amend ment, M.
Chamberlain said he could not recognise
the necessi,y Of passing the home rule bill
at one session The real necessity for
rushing the bill through was that the
government did not dare to stand on one
measure, the only chance Of the adoption
of which, if any such chance had ever ex-
listed, hal been destroyed by the govern
m.nt's alteration of the ninth clause OF
The financial arrangements.

There are no telegraph poles in China.
Not because there arc no telegraph
fines, o yet because there is not wood
suitable for use as poles. Strangely
enough. the reason is purely religious.
The Chinese, says IN exchange, worship
their dead fathers and grandfathcrs.
and regard the resting places of their
remains ~ so sacred that they deem
IL is a sacrilege to allow u shadow to he
cast upon their graves. When the
linemen of the first Chinese telegraph
companies began operations, they were
greatly embarrassed in their undertake
ings by crowds of inhabitants who fol-
lowed them about and with the most
frightful blasphemies cut down the
poles as fast as they we're erected. For
some time no explanation could be OBJ
tanned, but ut last the working parties
discovered that in the more tlliclly set
tied districts of the Celestial empire
graves We're everywhere to be found,
and scarcely a pole could be erected
anywhere but that mt some time OF
the day it cast Il shadow on q grave!
The difficulty was in%superable, and the
Chinese government. anxious as 1T was
to render assistance, stood powerless.
So all the wires went underground,
and it is said the system proved per-
fcctly efficient.

saved by HI. DOG.

The "Naval and Military Sketch
Book contains a good story of Il dog
whose perseverance saved his masters
life. III the year 1853, when the Eng
fish made an attack upon st. Malo,
Il French shepherd was compelled to
act as guide to the Coldstream Guards,
and purpOsely led them astrny. Gen.
Vernon ordered him to be hanged.
That officer used to say that he never
EHitncssed anything more affecting than
tle efforts of the shepherds dog to
Hinder the men from putting the rope
round his masters neck. The execu-
tioner had no small difficulty in keeping
The affectionate animal off, although as
sisted by two drummers who enjoyed
the reputation of having been prac.
,t:ced dog stealers in Westminster.
But John Bull is n poor creature
when it comes to the PINCH" Gen. Yer.
hon Used to add. when telling the story,
,'and l could not find it in my heart to
put the stubborn fellow to death fol
his patriotism. So. after well ~frighten'
! ing him, and almost breaking his heart
by threatening to have his dog de
stroycd, l let him so, and the faithful
creature with him.

into Cawnpore they went into the
room, and, oh, what a horrid scene.
Sword strokes ON the wall near the
floor. showing that the poor things had
crouched when they died; ard they
all saw that the floor vas ankle deep
in blood. The soldiers walked on their
heels across 1t, lest their shoes be sub
merged of the carnage. And On that
floor of blood there were flowing locks
of hair and fragments of dresses.
Out in Lucknow they had heard OF
the massacre and the women wel.e
waiting for the same awful death;
waiting amid anguish untold; waiting
in pain and starvation. but waiting
DISQUALIFICATION. one day, Havelock
and Outram and Norman and Sir Da-
vid Beard and Peel, the heroes of the

in on that horricd scene. and while vet
the guns We're sounding and while
cheers We're issuing from the starving,
dying people on the side and from
the travel-worn and observation-disclosures
soldiers on the othcr-riglt there, in
front of the kings palace, there was
such u scene of Handwriting and en-.
bracing and boisterous joy as would
utterly confOund the pen of the poet
and the pencil of the painter. And
no wonder, when these emactated
women. who had suffered so heroically
for Christ's sake, marched out from
their incarceration, one wounded Eng
lish soldier got up in his fatigue and
wounds and leaned against the wall
and threw his cap up and shouted,
'.Three cheers, my boys, for the brave
WOMEN"
Oh! that was an exciting scene. But
a gladder aud more triumphant scene
will it be when you come up into hcav-

wounds of battle and wan with hun
