fell from Si03 $780, 9S2 in $780, to S354 937 7s5 in

1t Will be seen from the foregoing table that
the net imports of gold during Mr.. Cievc-
tand's administration was S32, 7SS, 538. Only
turing two years of his term did the exports
-Xceed the imports, and then not to the extent

ear that the exports did not exceed the i'm
ports, the total reaching the startling SUM OF

December, January and February, of the lat
ter's term the net exports were over S36000,-
900, being at the rate of more than $l2, 900 900
month, or $40, 600, 900 year; while during
the first four months of Cleveland's present
term it was but little over S32, 900. 900, and
during the fiscal year ending June so, 1894,
only 81, 5Sl, 653. The whole administration of
Mr.. Harrison, with the exception of the first
year, which was in some respects prosperous,
as result OF the great impetus given to it by
the four preceding years of sound economical
administration. was that of falling revenues
increasing expenditures and heavy flow Of
gold from the country. Any of these was cal

General pleasonton's Charmed Life.

3eneraA FleaSOnpOnB CnhrmeQ LlI9s
The late General Augustus James
Pleasonton was the older of two distin.
guished brothers, both Of whom were
born in Washington and both of whom
were graduates of West Point. The old
er brother, who passed away at the age
Of SO years, enjoyed distinction in late
years chiefly because of his published
writings On the subject Of "the infu-
ence of the blue color of the sky in
developing animal and vegetable life"
and his many experiments to prove the
correctness Of his fayorite ''blue glass
theories.
The other brother, General Alfred
Pleasonton, achieved even greater dis
tinction because of his long and valua-
BILE services III the United States army.
He made an excellent record IN the Mex
ican war, was famous Indian fighter,
and in the war of the rebellion he divid-
ed honors with the greatest of the cav
airy leaders. l have often heard Con-
federates tell interesting stories about
the wonderful bravery and daring ex.
posure of person which caused General
ALI Pleasonton to be marked among the
soldiers Of the rebel army as having a
charmed life," because for long tilne
their sharpshooters found it impossible
to pick him off. no matter how good
their aim, and at last they virtually
gave up the idea of striking him because
they believed he had charmed life -
