The report OF Dun's Mercantile
Agency for February 3rd, says fresh
impulse has been given to business
this week by the success of the Treas
ury in obtaining gold for its reserve,
thus Strengthening confidence in its
ability to maintain gold payments.
Revenue had fallen off so much, and
the prospects for the loan looked so
unfavorable, until financial institutions
here decided to carry it through, that
some anxiety about the monetary fu.
ture was natural. Investments in the
ordinary sense have been affected very
little, and while more demand for time
loans has appeared, the money market
cannot be expected to change much
with $245,ooo,o 900 cash in the banks
and more coming from the interior,
while the Treasury also is compelled
to pay out more than it now receives
in taxes. Gradual improvement in
business explains the appearance of
more commercial paper in the market
this week than has been seen for a
long time, though as yet the vast ac
cumulation of idle funds is proof
enough that trade has by no means re-
gained normal proportions. Industrial
recovery continues, though, it is but
gradual, Ill response to the demand of
a people whose consumption at its
lowest is greater than that of any other
country, and more mills are now al
work.

What 10 Ksaat by warm aDA Cold
" ClothlnR. r.

What 10 Rsant by warm ADA Cold
Clothing.
When we speak Of warm or cold
clothing we use as absolute a metaphor
as when we talk OF the sun going
down or the ''rosy fingered dawn"
Clothes can communicate neither
heat nor cold to the body. Fur is not
warm nor linen cool, says the Phila-
delphia Press, except as they serve as
conductors for the heat generated by
the body itself Fur and wool are ex-
ccllent non-conductors of heat, that is
they do not allow the heat of the body
to escape so easily as some other ma
tcrials, and the reason why fur is one
of the poorest conductors of heat is
not, as might be supposed, so much be-
cause of its thickness and weight as
because of the air which is
mingled with or confined between
its fbers, confined air being one
of the most effectual non-conductors of
heat known. Newspapers are another
of the best non-conductors. of heat
and arsheet Of one folded and laid be-
tween the shoulder blades will warm
that posterior region as effectually as it
warns the hearts of its readers-who
happen to be OF the same politics. Or
course the colder the atmosphere the
greater the escape of bodily heat and
the greater the necessity of its conser-
vction by non-conducting clothing.
And clothing should always be varied
to correspond to the variations of
temperature, q fact which is recog-
nized and met by the Chinese, who
speak of the weather as zone jocllet
cold, two jockets cold" etc. Of course
there can be no rule applicable to all,
and the ability to generate and main
tain heat must be the criterion. Chill,
dren and old people have less of this
ability than those in the prime of life,
and consequently need greater protec-
ton or conservation of what they do
generate, and, in the case of children
at least, the dictates of fashion should
never be allowed to interfere with
those of health and comfort. &C.,.

Ruins OF u ProhlstorIc City.

A party Of prospcctors who were re-
Gently on the Colorado desert in seach
of lost mine found the ruins of pre-
historic city. There were walls and re-
mains of stone buildings. For q dis
lance of four hundred and twenty feet
in length by two hundred ard sixty
feet in width gigantic pillars quantity
carved to represent dragons heads and
serpents stood in the sand, supporting
on their tops hugo slabs of granite
weighing many tons. The ornamental
ton resembled Egyptian sculpture and
showed n great degree of skill. The
ruins are to be carefully examined by
an exploring party, md it is thought
that important discoveries will yet be
made.

Gently. Ito obtain the signatures of
New York bankers.
Their object is evidently to use
them in committing forgcries. At
least we suspect so, and for that rea-
son try to be as careful as possible in
signing letters.
''In this bank we have many letters
from the west Of such trivial nature
that we suspect an Interior motive up
on the part of the writer's, and if we
answer thenIa at all do SO by typewriter,
even to the signature.

sistent in his efforts to obtain the sig
natures of our officers. AS regularly

quests us to send him one of our new
ten dollar national bank notes in ex-
change. ..
'iIe always gives the same reason
for the requcst-that he wants it for
his collection OF course that is non
sense. We believe that he wants a
new bill so that he may discover if we
have changed our officers and get their
signatures.
"He never does get them, though.
We always return this bill. with a

 A new feature of Howard this season is the admission of young ladies to the junior class, only one having taken advantage of this opportunity to secure higher mental training, some feeling a delicacy in becom- ing students. of male college; but the writer, who is male student in the junior class of this institution, extends, by au- thority of the president, faculty and him. self, a most cordial invitation to all young ladies seeking higher mental training to join him in that research. Already, as said before, one young lady has taken ad- vantage of this opportunity to achieve suc- cess and celebrity through Howard college, as the medium, and numerous others will do likewise in the near future. There are at this writing 135 matriculates, and it is expected that by the middle of October there will be more than 200 in attendance.
