CURRENCY OF OTHER DAYS.
Some Monetary Inconvenience of the
Old Continental Times.
Washington Star.


Washington city never saw a sharp
bought a drink or paid a laborer within the
limits OF the federal city. The new seat OF
government came in as the Old currency
went out. Yet it's history is full OF interest.
The currency question was a burning one in
the United States 10 years ego. Indeed.
much of the paper currency had come to be
of such a plight that it seemed fit for moth
ing but burning. The continental paper
money which had largely contributed to win
liberty, had been disabled, like most of the
soldiers, and sinking from par to 1000 for
L, had gone out of use. Says George Tucker:
The paper money, which, in the first
years of the revolution, constituted the gen.
eral currency of the country, had a great
Gent as we'll as chief resource, and enabled
the Congress to defray the expenses of war
when they were without specie or any sure
and speedy means of obtaining ii. Even
after the currency had depreciated, as was
evident in 17I6, IL still was a valuable auxiI-
larry 10 the government without revenue or
the power OF taxation, but IL IL rendered
these benefits to the American people in
their collective capacity II often proved
most injurious to individuals. As the de-
probation, after IL began, continued steadily
to advance, until the paper lost all value,
every one was compelled TO pass the money
at a less rate than he. had received II. In
this way IL operated as a general tax and
between debtors and creditors the case was
very different. When this money was used
for the payment of debts. as It commonly
was from necessity, as Well as choice, the
depreciation fell solely upon the creditor
class"

HI Speaks of the Real Essence of the

At Do~wney-avenue Church, in Irvington,
the pastor, Rev. ]. w. Comfort, announced
as his topic Christ for the world, the
world for Christ" He referred TO the lead
ing thought in the minds of many
thousands Of Christian Endeavorers
who have been gathered together
in our city this week. 1t is pub
lished. he said. in their literature; it sounds
as the refrain of their music; it IS the
strong tone in their speeches, and the in
domitable idea Of their lives. Christ does
not stand for one age or one people alone.
but for all ages and all peoples. 1t was
hard for the Jews to believe that the Mes
siah would save any out. OF the Hebrew
faith, and ii is just as hard for some Chris
tians to believe Jesus will save anyone but
those of their own religious order. But
Jesus said: 81, If ! be lifted VI from the
earth, will draw all men unto me- 1t is
easy enough to say Christ for the world,
the world for Christ" and to make it the
watchword Of a Christian convention. the
motto of a missionary society, the text OF
an appeal, the plea of a church, but 1t is
not so easy to work out the details Of 1t
in our lives in such a way that we shall be
workers together with God.
1.-THE story of the ages" the preacher
continued, has been a story of EXPANSION
Of thought-larger hopeIbroader faithEa
means from Gods standpoint, and Of what
the worth of all human souls is in the
world is advancing towards Jesus Christ.
I believe that Jesus confidently expected
that it would do so. There are more Chris
tians in the world to-day than ever. and /
power than ever. There may be less of
show, but there is a deeper sincerity. The
trend of the best religious thought and
the spirit of the gospel Is 'CErist for the
world, the world for Christ.

CAMPAIGNING ON SUNDAY.
Sullivan at Blake and Eliza
beth Streets.

Some of the good Democratic brethren,
who devote six-sevenths OF the week to
business INC politics and the other seventh
to rest and proper devotional exercises,
have. 1t Is said. suspended this routine on
account Of the emergencies OF the cam
paign. 1t was even said last night that
ex-Mayor T. L. Sullivan, who has always
observed the Sabbath personally, though
not officially, broke the commandment
which enJoins rest on the seventh day, and
charged up this remiSsness not to his con-
science, but TO the Democratic county COM
mittee. Mr.. Sullivan. IT Is stated, held serv-
ices at Stevens's Hall, corner OF Blake and
Elizabeth streets, yesterday morning. and
spread before his hearers the gospel of
Democracy. while his pastor, Rev. Mr.. Car
stensen. was preaching at that hour the
true gospel at st. Pauls Church. 1t is
hoped, on account Of Mr.. Sullivan's stand
ing In the church, that the report is ex-
aggerated, and yet, as much as 1t may be
deplored. the report comes or good au-
thority.
AS campaigning for Democratic votes this
year is the hardest sort Of work, Mr.. Sui
Ivan will ave much trouble in satisfying
his conscience that he observed Sunday,
Oct. IA, as a day of rest.

Jefferson vs.. Wilson.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
Mr.. Wilson in his British address to the
Chamber of Commerce in London spoke
of the idea of assimilating America to
China in the equation of a protective
tariff that would exclude the world from
US. He has also posed as a Jeffersonian
Democrat. Tested by Jefferson himself on
both these items, let us see If he is con-
sistent.
In a letter written by Jefferson, dated
Paris. Oct. 10. 1885. TO Hogendorp wide
Jefferson's Works. Vol. 1, Page 342, ct
sequitur) he says:
"You ask what I think on the expediency
Of encouraging our States to be CONNER
I should wish them to practice neither
commerce nor navigation; to stand, with
respect to Europe, on the footing Of
all our citizens would be husbandmen.
Whenever. indeed. our numbers should 50
stoct the markets of those nations Who
should come TO seek Ii the farmers must
either employ the surplus of their times
hands must be employed in manufactures
or navigation. But that day would, / think.
be distant. and W. should long keep our
workmen in Europe, while Europe should
be drawing rough materials, and even
subsistence. from America. But this is
theory only, and a theory which the
servants or America are not at liberty TO
follow. Our people have a decided taste
for navigation and commerce. They tax
this from their mother country. and their
servants are in duty bound TO calculate
all these measures on this datum. We
wish TO do ii by throwing open all the
doors of m and knocking off its
shackles. But this cannot be done for
othe-s unless they will do il for us, and
there is no great probability that Europe
win do this. / suppose we shall be
Obliged to adopt a system which may
shackle them in our ports. as they do US
in theirs"
Here see protective tariff and reciprocity,
both of which are now obnoxious TO mod
ern Democracy. but were surely in the
head and heart OF Thomas Jefferson when
he was planning for the greatness and
outcome OF his native country. Would he
have spoken otherwise had he been the
Wilson of West Virginia? Wilson is
greeted with the cheers of the British:
jefferson lived 10 hate Britain. as see his
thought in the first part of the letter from
which the above quotation Is made. The
people of America had better repudlate
Wilson and cling 10 Jefferson.

A GYPSY'S CONVERTS
REV. RODNEY SMITHS EVANGELICAL
WORK BEGINS TO TELL.
The F~orcefulness of His Comparisons
Hundreds Join the Church-At
Rev. MIR. Comforts Church.

Central-avenue NJ. E.. Church was packed
TO the last seat in the gallery yesterday
morning to hear the English gypsy evan
gelist, Rev. Rodney Smith, who seemed TO
be at his best. According to his custom,
he preceded his sermon with a gospel hymn,
when Our Ship Comes Sailing Home"
which was sung with great effect. His text
was the injunction of Christ to the fisher
man of Galilee: Launch out into the deep
and let down your nets for a draught."
No adequate idea OF the sermons of Mr..
Smith can be conveyed by literal reports
Of his words. which are apt in forcefulness,
Illustration and analogy, for he breaches
with greater force and effectiveness by
gesture, manner and intonation of voice.
The leading thought Of the sermon was that
In both personal experience and church
work there must be a going forward, that
men can afford to take all the risks In. the
performance of duty. AS showing his eff
fectiveness In illustration of this truth. one
of his stories may be cited. OFF the York
shire coast of a life-saving station, a ship
was seen going to pieces in a frightful
storm. The men on shore manned a boat
for the rescue. 1t was launched in the
angry waves, running high. Every oar was
broken to splint< and the boat was tossed
on shore. Again s-ad again it was manned
and equipped, and finally put out to the
laundering ship, which was finally reached,
the crew taken aboard and in great danger
landed safely. Calling the roll, the captain
found one was missing. Man the boat
again; who will volunteer with me for the
rescue?' cried the captain. ID not ven-
ture," begged the captains mother. my
other son who went to sea never came
back. You can never go out to the ship
and return" But they went In great peril,
found the missing man, took him on board
and started for the shore. Nearing 1t every
eye was strained. and a voice louder than
the rest cried out from land: did you find
the missing man?" The captain answered
back to the shore: Yes, and 1t is Willie,
your missing boy"
AZ the close OF the morning sermon a
number of people united with the church.
In the afternoon the Sabbath school lesson
was suspended, and the gypsy evangelist
took charge, preaching a brief sermon. Over
one hundred were converted. 1t was a most
impressive scene. At the night service the
great auditorium was full and scores were
turned away for want of room. The topic
at night was Paurs plea before Felix. 1t
was IN exposition of great force. There
were thirty to forty conversions at the
night services. The meetings are to con-
tinue during every night of the week.

MEETING OF BISHOPS
RI. REV. NH. wATTERSON, OF OHIO,
CALLS ON RI. REV. MR.. CHATARD.
The Catholic Divine Whose Temper
ance Ruling I'm His Diocese At
tracted Much Attention.

Bishop John H. Watterson, Of the Roman
Catholic Church, was a guest at the Deni-
son House last night Bishop Watterson
has become prominent throughout the coun-
try and especially In Roman Catholic cir
cles on account OF his stand upon the tenn
perance question. He Is the one who de-
cided that s-aloon-keepers were ineligible to
hold office in Catholic societies in his do
cese, which decision was the subject of
much comment both in the Catholic press
and daily newspapers. Bishop Watterson
Is very radical In his temperance views and
an uncompromising advocate Of total alb
stinence. He has been to Chicago. where
he delivered some addresses and stopped in
this city en- route to his home. He preached
the sermon at the 1890 o'clock mass at st.
Johns Cathedral yesterday morning.
1t was reported that the purpose Of his
visit to this city was to confer with Bishop
Chatard in reference to the organization OF
a Catholic temperance society here. This
report was denied by both the bishops last
night. Bishop Chatard said that Bishop
watterson had called upon him yesterday
evening, but the call was a purely social
one and had no significance in relation to
Bishop Watterson's temperance views or
a short time with Bishop Chatard. During
his stay he called on the most OF the Cath
Ollie clergy of this t,s city and was visited
As to the important temperance ruling
which he has established in the diocese of
Columbus Ohio. he said last night: 1T
run into safety, It has been discussed SO
much in the press. Yet at the same time
/ believe II Is meeting appreciation all over
the country, and yes, / can say more, with
enthusiasm. i do not know that the other
dioceses of the country intend to follow
that of Columbus / have never heard or
been informed as to that, but 1 should
think from the general feeling the question
Is creating that there will be others falling
into line In a short time"
Did your visit to this city have any
thing to do with the adoption of the move
ment in this diocese?'
NO. replied the bishop. "My visit here
is merely accidental. / stopped over on my
way home to Columbus / preached at st.
of the clergymen."
