way, there will be no longer any reason
for the treasury's keeping gold re-
serve. 1t will, as a matter of course,
gradually disappear as the greenbacks
are retired. When that event occurs,
the banks will be the only place to
which any one can 60 to get gold.
The entire circulation ofthe country
will be based upon gold, but the banks
will have a complete monopoly in the
matter Of supplying gold, barring
alone the slow production of the
mines. The government itself will
have to look to the banks when it
wants gold with which to pay the
interest on its bonds. This is part of
the reason for the project of the
bankers.
Another and similar reason is that
the greenbacks are a constant object
lesson to the people that the govern
ment itself can supply safe, sound,
and convenient currency as well as
the banks. The greenback is a con-
slant threat to the bank-nOte. And
now, when the bonds on which the
hank-nOte issue is based are near
maturity, the whole bank-nOte system
is near an end, unless the $40, 100000
of greenbacks can be forced out Of eX-
iStence, leaving vacuum that must
be filled by something else. This is
why the banks cannot wait any longer
This is why they have seized the pre-
sent pretext 50 promptly. This is
why, as we more than suspect, they
propose to keep us on the ragged edge
of another financial panic until coz
gress is frightened into the retire.

on the requirements of the treasury
of the United States" to force the
ordinary broker into refusing to eX-

able to do that in one case it can do it
in another, and if this year it brings
the tide of gold one way because paid
to do so, the next year it can turn the
tide the other way if it wants to force
action by congress that will complete
the money monopoly of the banks.

with promise Of the government be-
hind them, have maintained their
value and full purchase power all the
time. What happened in the case Of
the 42O grain trade dollar is just what
would happen in the case of the 4l2I
grain standard silver dollar under a
system of free coinage on individual
account"
Are those statements true? No,
they are not and Secretary Carlisle
must be branded as not only trying to
deceive, but with willful lying. What
are the facts? Under free coinage as
practiced in this country both gold
and silver were coined for private in
divlduals who presented the bullion to
the minis. Neither were redeemable
but were made absolute money and
full legal tender for all debts. The
trade dollar passed current as long as
it was legal tender, but section two
of the act Of July %, 1876, provided:
"That the trade dollar shall not here
after be legal tender" 1t is another
instance of the United States discred-
iting its own money. Immediately
after the passage of this act trade dol
lars were no longer accepted at the
banks at their nominal value. They
were subject TO immediate discount
and became at once mere cOmmOdi-
ty, thus opening a new field for the
Spectator.
Secretary Carlisle knew these facts,
but from within the cloak of hypOcri.

Official FalsehOOds.

Unsolicited came political literature
from the Sound Currency Committee
of New York City, among which were
the speeches Of Secretary Carlisle, de-
livered at Memphis May 23d and Lou
isyille June 14th.
My earlier years having been spent
in the South l had regarded the prom
inent men Of that section as not only
equally intelligent but more hOnOra-
BILE than those of the North, and | re-
garded Hon. John G. Carlisle as one
of the ableSt statesmen and pureSt pa
triotS of this country. 1t was there
fore natural that | should eagerly
peruse those speeches.
In the opening Of the Louisville
speech, he says: "WhOever assumes
to assist the people in their delibera-
tons upon public questions must feel
that he is under the strongest Obliga-
ton to practice no deception upon
them" yet we find in that speech de-
ceptiOn in the statement of facts and
also in the conclusions. In fact it is
compilation Of falSehOod and decep-
ton. On page ten (10) he says: THE
silver dollar coined for private pur-
poses and not on account of the gov
eminent would be of no greater value
than the bullion contained in it unless
the fiat Of the government, the stamp
of the mint, should impart additional
valro % it. That it would not do so
was thoroughly demonstrated in the
case of the trade dollar coined under
the act of February u, 1873 They
were coined free of charge and deliv-
cred W thout expense to the owners of
the bullion from which they were
made and they contained 420 grains of
standard silver or thirty-Six grains
more than the quantity contained in
two half dollars or four quarters or
ten dimes. The trade dollar was when
its coinage was authorized legal ten
der in payment of all debts public and
Ipriyoue not exceeding s. in amount,
Just as the half dollars, quarters and
dimes were under the statute then in
force Now if the fat of the govern
ment, if the stamp Of the mint is suf-
fcient to impart value to a coin. here
was an opportunity to demonstrate
that fact. But what was the result?
| The trade dollar, as l nave said. was
coined for private individuals and de-
| liyered to them for their own use.
just what is now proposed to be done
with the silver dollar: but the small
subsidiary coins were made by the
government on its own account and
paid out Oy it for its own benefit with
pledge in the law to redeem them
on presentation in lawful money. The
result was that the great big dollar
with the stamp of the United States
mint upon it declaring it to be a dol
lar, went down to less than eighty
cents, corresponding exactly with the
actual value at the time of the metal
contained in it, while the little coin

DISCRIMINATING Birds.

Lord Lilford maintains that, if own
ers and occupiers Of land would exer-
else their right of preserving and pro-
tecting the eggs of wild birds an they
preserve their gooseberries, there would
subject. These gentlemen usually pro
tect the nests of their game birds, and
it is even more easy to prevent the de
struction Of the eggs Of other species
than it is those Of the partridges and
pheasants. Prof Newton, on the other
hand, maintains the desirability Of pro
tecting by law certain localities from
which eggs are taken in large numbers;
and he speaks of several of these places
where the birds were exposed to the
risk Of determination, but, thanks to
the influence and exertio1s Of few In
again multiplying In increasing num-
bers.
One magnificent bird, the great skua,
was all but exterminated a few years
since, one or two nests alone remain

eggs, owing to their scarceness, had q
high pecuniary value, and there Is no

be done in others. and, as to ollr small

dwellings and locations Of men, there
is no fear of their numbers being seri.

New Australian Anim.l.

The Horne expedition to the Macdon-
nell ranges in South Australia has been
scientifically successful, though the
prospectors do not find the metallifer-
GUS developments they expected, says
a correspondent. A marsupial no big
ger than a rat has been caught, and the
motorcycles was again seen and captured
alive. In one locality the rare Afexan-
dra -parroquet was met with. Twenty
new species Of land shells were discov-
cred, but though the range Of many
plants was extended, only seven or
eight absolutely new were brought back
which proves that tho botany Of Austria
liza is getting pretty well worked out.
The expedition, it may be RENE mbered,
was almost wholly at the expense Of
Mr.. Horne, and conveyed on camels,
which proved well suited for the kind
of travel required beyond the rain,
line.
