Our esteemed contemporary,
the Daily Morning Liar of St.
Louis remarks that "silver fails
to rise in price because there is
no more demand for it." It also
insists that the main reason why
we should not coin the supply of
silver is because it is cheap. Now
we want to ask just one question
right here. Would not the free
coinage of silver increase the de.
mand for it, and would not this
increased demand enhance it's
price? The position assumed by
the goldbugs reminds us OF
the old lady who did not want
her boy to go about the water un
til he learnt to swim. Until silver
was demonetized there was a de-
mand for it which kept up the
price. When it was demonetize6
the demanded off and the price
went down. It is folly now tt
say that to increase it's uses viii
not also increase the demand ani
also the price. Elk.

Circloeraph For Craftsmen.

Mr.. Thomas Clarkson, c.. E., of
Mark Lane, E. G., has brought out a
useful instrument for scientific
craftsmen called the "circlograph. :"
It enables him to draw curves to
practically any radius and is based
on the fact that strips of steel Of
uniform thickness can be bent into
circular curves by pressure on their
ends. The circlograph is handy lit
tie instrument and is calculated to
save much valuable time.

THE FIRST. CELEBRATION.

1t Passed or Much as Independence Day
Does Now.
The people of the United States took
to the Fourth of July very naturally.
The first anniversary of the Declaration
Of Independence, July 4, 1777, was cele-
brated at Philadelphia as gayly, as pref
tily and as enthusiastically as though the
inhabitants had had century's practice
in the art.
In the morning all the ships, the
market barges and the armed galleys
were drawn up in a line before the city,
with their flags and streamers flying.
At o'clock, the shore being lined with
eager spectators, the yards were manned
and each vessel in turn fired salute of
IS guns.
When the last salute was over, con-
gress, with a number OF officers, civil
and military, dined together and drank
the usual patriotic toasts, each toast be-
ing followed by discharge of artillery.
And who furnished the music for the
feast? Why, hand Of Hessian prisoners,
who had been captured few months
before at Trenton! Their music was
much admired.
After dinner there was q military
parade, consisting Of companies of horse,
a body Of artillery and brigade Of reg
ular troops from North Carolina, which
was witnessed by congress and it's
guests from the banquet, besides nearly
the whole population of the town. AS
night drew on the church bells were
rung AS soon as it was quite dark
there was an exhibition Of fireworks and
a general illumination. The young and
old appeared to enjoy the occasion thor
oughly from early morning until late in
the evening. -:

Preparations for shipment are next
in order. Ten sacks Of gold are packed
in cask that looks for all tho world like
n herring cask. The head and bottom
OF this plebeian receptacle are carefully
sealed. The ten sacks lit III the cask 80
tightly that the abrasion OF the coin in
transit is infnitcsi,nal. Each cask
weighs, when ready for shipment, $50
pounds. The five aggregate 900 pounds.
The casks arc placed in 4 small covered
wagon and two men sit on top OF them.
They are always big. broad shouldesed
fellows, and each carries revolver in

sits q third guard. Without any bus
