SILVER 1co1NAof sropPrD.

49, 80 SOANA46 SANt 49,
-
The sherman set Of 1890 provided
for the purchase Of silver bullion, and
and the Issue OF silver certificates TO re-
present u in the currency Of the
country. Those certIncates were to be
Issued at the market price ofsilver, and
the act declared for the maintaining OF
two metals ln use at parity Of value.
This parity clause hAs been interpreted,
as the sailor said bis wife interpreted
the marriage contract: "a man and
bis wife are one, and she says she is the
one" 1t has been made to mean that
the certificates issued TO represent silver
bullion shall be redeemed only In gold
CONT Mr.. Carlisle, following in the
footsteps Of Mr.. Foster, has even re-
fused 10 make use OF tho silver dollars
coined under the sherman act TO re-
deem TIE Treasury noes.
For some reason, possibly by mad
vertence, or possibly tc find work for
the mint at New Orleans, no lees than
3,95e.Oll silver dollars were coined this
year. But now Mr.. Carlisle issues bis
order that there fhall be no further
coinage Of silver, except as change.
Practically, this coinage ceased at the
end Of June, only 500 having been
coined since that time. Ifthe Sl37, ,644,
600 silver on hand Is to be used Ia any
way, II must be by the issue Of silver
bullion certlhcstes. The treasury can
hardly help using 1t, In the present
state Of the finance. Under this rul-
lug, therefore, not only does every bull
lion certificate already In use add Its
face value to the gold obligations of
the treasury, aud furnish means to en-
able the gold exporters 10 draw upon
the Rold-but every addition the Trea
sury is forced to make TO their volume
adds to both. This is the highest point
reached In the absurdIty Of our gold
standard finance, and shows the folly
Of putting the law for execution into
the hands Of men who are interested
in defeating its purpose. Some day
the bad precedents set by Fuccesslvo
Secretaries of the Treasury In this mat.
ter will return to plague us.
Mr.. Carlisle has declared himself
willing 10 have our currency con-
tracted by the cancellation OF the
whole volume Of the treasury notes.
He indicates no substitute for these,
except, possibly. those unsecured state.
bank notes, which his party declare
their readiness to haye issued. This,
however, Is not the whole extent to
which his policy would contract our
national money, and substitute this
very inadequate banking currency.
The greenbaoks would have to folloY
the silver bullion certificates. Mr..
sherman objects to the arrt half Of the
proposal, and he, no doubt, would OBJ
ject no less to the second. He wants
to see, first Of all, such = changs In the
tariff ~ will stop the export Of gold by
shifting the balance Of trade. II that
were achieved, he thinks, the green
backs and I've may add the silver GER
tificaies would be no threat to our gold
reserve.-PhilAdeiphiA American.

The Board of Visitors of West Point
Military Academy has recently made a
visit. 1t found satisfactory progress
and proficiency in every branch, except
English.
This is weak spot in West Point,
and such can be found in the great ma
jority of our institutions.
Our own language is too often neg
lected in many of our schools for the
early study of French, German and
Latin. There is a conspi cuous educa-
tor, who took first honor at one of our
institutions and run a medal IN some
thing else very close, and yet he per
sists in saying "knowd" and "lowd." A
full fledged graduate of conspicuous
female school of the State, though
versed (?) in French and can write (?)
it and on some occasions, speaks CD it,
cannot decline the personal pronouns

Many Of our colleges pay too little
attention to instruction III English.
They frequently send forth graduates
who are experts in the higher branches
of mathematics, who have delightful
familiarity with the classics and can
rattle off French, German and other
foreign languages like native, but are
clumsy and often incorrect in their
written and spoken English.
No American can claim to be educa-
ted who is not good English scholar.

berries are gathered by hand, and the
husk, or chaff, Is generally removed by
passing them through a coarse kind Of

Brazilians have two meals per day
breakfast at 9 2. m. and dinner at from
; to s .. m, while hot coffee Is taken
at almost every hour 0. the day. The
chief articles Of food are furinha, a
meal from the mandioca root, carne
secca, or dried beef, and a species OF
drief beans. In all the towns and cities
coffee-houses and restaurants are nu-
merous, and are daily visited by large
crowds Of coffee-drinkers.
The chief amusement is found IN at
tending balls. circuses and theatres, for
all which Sunday night is the most
favorable and popular time with the
Brazilians.
Lotteries are numerous. Riding on
the trains or street cars, walking the
streets, or in the stores, you are con-
stantv startled by having a bunch OF
lottery tickets violently thrust into
YOUR face. while the agent, with loud
shrill voice rudely solicits you to buy.
Thousands, expecting to get rich by
the tickets which they buy, live in
idleness and want.
Young ladies are seldom seen on the
streets alone. Some of them, with
their heavy braided hair and black
ewes. are models of beauty. Young
men are not allowed to call on young
ladies or take them to ride. Marriage
is effected through parents Or others,
and frequently a girl is engaged to a
man whom she has never seen.
The manner of burying the dead is
OF the most revolving character Those
families which are able have vaults,
into which their dead are placed in
flat coffins. The cOffins gre mere wood
en- frames, over which is fastened fine
purple cloth. The vault is opened
about once a year, and the remains Of
the coffin and corpse are removed, af-
ter which the vault is ready for use
again. The poorer classes have no
vaults, bat each family is assigned a
place large enough for grave, which

terry, and YOU are Mortified a, the

Only about one-third of the territory
of Brazil is occupied by European
races, the remainder being still occu-
pied by native Indians, thousands OF
whom do not even know that there is
such a thing as the Republic of Brazil.
But the country is rapidly being open
et.. and large numbers OF immigrants
yearly find their homes in this great
country.
Brazil has an interesting history,
and some of her heroes are worthy of
admiration, but as one Of the great
nations of the world, her history lies in
the future, and is to be written by tie
hand of progress in the wonderful deeds
which are to make her free from igno-
rance, strife and superstition.

DARING HOLD-UP,
Hisywaymen Stop IL st. Louis Street

Hisywnymen Stop II st. Louis Street
Car and Rob the Conductor and
Passengers.
A most daring hold-up took place in ST.
Louis Monday night on one of the cars of
the Cass avenue line, near the corner of
10th and CaSs avenue.
A witness to the hod-up said that four
white men were standing on the northwe est
corner, AMI when the car approached one of
them jumped on the front of the car and
placed revolver at the head of the motor
man, commanding him to throw up his
hands, which he did without much heslta-
ton. The other three boarded the rear plat
form and two of them grabbed the con-
ductor and went through his pockets, taking
all the change he had, amounting to over
$50.
One of the robbers he'd him while the 9TH
er two entered the car, and with drawn re-
volvers commanded the passengers to shell
out" There were about ten people in the
car, and how much they got he could not
say. He learned from one of the victims
that he was robbed of s.. After getting all
they could, the highwaymen made their es-
cape.

become disseminated through the city, how
ever, before there came a further report
that the insurgents were marching toward
Guanabana, and that Gen. Campos had has
tened to that point to oppose the advances,
thus once more moving his headquarters
westward and nearer Havana, as ne has
had to do SO often within the last few days.
Guanabana is only about five miles out of
MatanzaS and ten or fifteen miles west of
Coliseo plantation, where Gen. Campos is
said to have won his important victory over
Gomez in person. 1t became evident that
the reports of Gen. Campos' successful stand
and rout of the insurgents were either I'M
founded, or that the force that he had met
was merely. wing of the insurgent army
sent to make a diversion while the main
columns pushed on to the westward
All is confusion of mind at Havana, and
the authorities are apparently all at sea as
to what will be the next step of the insur-
gents, whether MatanZaS will be besieged
or whether the advance on that point is
merely a fe!nt to hold the Spanish forces
there while the insurgent forces make away
once more in the west for Havana, which is
less than fifty miles from MatanZas.
