The Tbos on the Niger.

Ivory anklets, often very heavy, are
oAiy worn by the Tho women of wealth
and Importance, but the metal anklets
worn by others may be many pounds in
weight, and some of them wear huge
brass plates, perhaps foot in diameter
which, once fixed to the ankles, are never
removed. The men wear single strip
of cotton cloth, but those who come
much in contact with the Europeans are
now learning to wear trousers. Their
weapons are fintlocks, bows and spears
the latter both for hurting and thrust
ing.
The huts are built of mud and mat
ting and are quadrangular in shape. Tls
center is an open courtyard, at one ens
of whichis the apartment of the head O
the house, while the wives and family
are accommodated in other rooms on the
right and left of the courtyard. There
is no furniture or ornament, and but q
few household utensils and weapons.-

Bags full of roses, baskets heavy with

never before occurred to the Americans
to scoop us out of the worlds markets
by going on silver basis, and it might
serve us right if, irritated by the con-
temptuous apathy of our government to
the gravity of the silver problem, the
Americans retaliate by freezing out gold.
1t could easily be done, and we propose
shortly to show, by evidence collected
from perfectly unprecedented sources,
that even now the process has begun,
and is proceeding at rate that will as
tonish most people, and probably make
this country regret that it did not at an
earlier age fashion its monetary policy
on principles of friendliness to other
nations, instead of on basis of short
sighted selfshness.

THERE are 1877 counties in Georgia,
and the carrying of dozen by Evans OF
Atkinson does not fix results. 1t will
only take in round numbers about seventy
counties to nominate. The result will
not be settled before July. There has
been a rush on both sides to get in coun-
ties that were regarded as. safe, upon the
idea that their action would affect other
counties still TO act. The canvass has
been SO warm, and its issues so thorough
W discussed, that very few men will be
controlled by the action of other locali-
ties. This is right; let them vote their

STATE BANKS or ISSUE.

The cheering news from comes Wash
Tngton that congress will soon act on the
bill to repeal the tax on state bank circu-
lation. The democratic Parry is pledged
to the repeal. Now let democrats in con-
gress get together and carry out the
pledge. A party can no more than an
individual afford to repudiate pledges.
Congress had no right to prohibit state
bank circulation. 1t had the power TO
tax it. The exercise of this power was
the usurpation of right. Nothing
which cannot be done directly should be
done at all. Indiscretion is never right,
and its use in this case was an abuse of
power.
The people need more money. Con-
gress should supply the need as soon as
possible. The safeguards of legislation
which are thrown around the currency
to prevent its depreciation are all right,
but safeguards are are needed to prevent
it from abandoning its duty to the peo-
pie and flowing into the Golfers of few
to be locked up in time of panic.
