THE MOVEMENT OF CURRENCY.
A Noticeable but Usual Increase--A De.
 mand for Small Notes.

New York, April 19.-One of the ef- fects of the increased movement of cur rency from the interior to this city Is seen in the greatly increased amount of mutilated currency presented at the sub-treasury for redemption. This movement is usual in the spring, and continues until summer, say June, when the outward movement begins for the removal of the crops. The amount of mutilated currency presented at the sub-treasury averages now about $5OO,- 900 day. Conditional receipts are giv- en for it until it is counted, and then it is paid for in any of the forms of currency convenient to the treasury; some of it is also paid for through the clearing house. There is a noticeable increased demand just now for small notes.

shop. While in this attitude he looked
so gaunt and grim that he reminded
me of an aged vulture STOPPING over
carrion, and vet there was something
pitiable about him, too. In way l
was sorry for him; a half-witted
wretch, whose life had been full of
ferent fate was his to mine, thought!
such gall and NORWOOD. What diff
I had endured but one short night Of
agony; how trifiing it seemed COM
pared to his hourly remorse and suf-
fering! He hated Nina for an act of
thoughtlessness; well, no doubt she
was not the only woman whose exist
ence annoyed him; it was most proba-
BILE that he was at enmity with all
women. I watched him pityingly as
he searched among the WORKOUT gar

and wondered why death, so active in
shifting down the strongest in the city,
should have thus cruelty passed by
this forlorn wreck of human misery,

The old rag picker shook his head
and made sign with his outspread
fingers expressive of contempt
''Not he. He was fool. He killed
himself"
"How was that? BY accident or de-
sign?"
"Che! Che! He knew very well what
he was doing. 1t happened only two
months since. It was for the sake of
q black-eyed jade; she lives and laughs
all day long up at Sorrento. He had
been on a long voyage; he brought her
pearls for her throat and coral pins
for her hair. She had promised to
marry him. He had just landed; he
met her on the quay; he offered her
the pearl and coral trinkets. She
threw them back and told him she was
tired of him. Just that-nothing more.
He tried to soften her; she ragged at
him like tiger-cat. Yes, 1 was one
of the little crowd that stood round
them on the quay; saw it all. Her
black eyes flashed; she stamped and
bit her lips at him, her full bosom
heaved as though it would burst her
laced bodice. She was only market
girl, but she gave herself the airs of a
queen. am tired of your she said
to him. 60! wish to see you no
more" He was tall and we'll made:
. powerful fellow; but he staggered,
his face grew pale, his lips quiyered.
He bent his head little, turned. and
before any hand could stop him he
sprang from the edge of the quay into
the waves; they closed over his head.
for he did not try to swim; he Just
sank down, down, like stone. Next
day his body came ashore, and I pur-
chased his clothes for two francs: YOU
shall have them for four"
"And what became of the grip" I
asked.
ooh, she! She laughs all day long.
as told you. She has a new lover
every week. What should she care?'
I drew out my purse. II will take
this suit" said, ''you ask four francs.
here are six, but for the extra two you
must show me some private corner
where can DRESS"
Eyes, yes. But certainlyw and the
old fellow trembled all over with
avaricious eagerness as counted
the silver into his withered palm.
Anything to oblige a generous stran-
ger! There is the place l sleep in; it is
not much; there is mirror-her mirror
the only thing keep Of hers.
Come this way, come this way"
And stumbling hastily along, almost
falling over the disordered bundles Of
clothing that lay about in all direc-
lions, he opened little door that
seemed to be cut In the wall, and led
me into kind Of close cupboard
smelling most vilely, and furnished
with a miserable pallet bed and one
broken chair. A small square pane Of
glass admitted light enough to see all
that there was to be seen, and close to
this extemperlzed window hung the
mirror alluded to-a beautiful thing,
set In silvec of antique workmanship,
the costliness Of which l at once rec.
ognized. though into the glass itself I
dared not for a moment lcOk. The old
man showed me with some pride that
tho door to this narrow den Of hls
locked from within.
