The circumstances attending the
adoption Of tine legend Il Pluribus
Unum" as the motto of the United
States have never been fully explained
by the historians ii was probably used
on coins-and some say upon early
colonial nags-lang before il was regu-
larlv recognized by the leading officials
of the new republic. The oldest coin
bearing tho motto in full is colonial
cent coined by New Jersey in the yeaI
1856. The same year il appeared on a
small medal recognized among the col
lecturS of coins ;ts the confederate. -
This medal was a national token, | he
lieve, and was coined by authority Of
the general government. IL bore un one
side l9 stars and blazing sun, the lat
ter surrounded by the word 'Confeder-
alto, which gives it the name by which
it Is known to the numismatists.
The words in the headline are un-
doubtedly from Virgil's "Moretus. " a
poem devoted to a description If a Ger.
tain salad In the rhyrling recipe he
gives instructions for mixing the proper
herbs and pounding the same in a NOR
tar until the various colors blend as one.

that "the colonies We're mixed in tnt

EARS congregated in large numbers in a
tile grove near my residence and filled
le air with their melodious singing,

The Livingston Republican says
The absence of bluebirds has been
