Quite naturally, there is not singh

hence Mr.. Burows felt bound to deal
in facts that are not facts, il was his
opportunity To present some inventions
of his own. We often detect literary
plagiarism 10y showing that the kid
naper has copied typographical errors
and all. Now Julius Caesar Burrows
did not invent on his own hook the
statement that "our entire coinage of
silver dollars from 1872 to 1873 was
only $4,000, 900. This he picked up
ont of one of the early speeches of a
goldbug who had the courage to pub
li,h his sentiments early. and ii Is lie
that has boon running for three years
in the popular" literature of goldbug-
ism. The fact is that all the silver
coined up to 1853 was of the same tine-

lent for expectation, and As they could
not be kept in the country their coin.

challenge 10 show that Japan, Mexico
nor any South American state has been
able TO keep silver bullion on par
with gold by free coinage. Most of
the countries of South America have
neither gold nor silver in circulation,
but 90 business with ircdeelnable
paper. In all South America there is
but $40, 600 600 OF specie to $3.50 600 600
of irredeemable paper. But even at
this there are = of gold to - OF silver.
There is not a South American country

wins the applause Of the Chautauquans

age nation. She coins on the national
account when it is profitable and coin,

At the last session of the Legislature an
amendment was passed on the marriage
license law, which was signed by the
Governor on June 18th. The amend
ment makes a marriage license now
good in any county in the State, instead
Of simply in the county Of issue. The
party performing the ceremony must
make the return to the Office who issued
the license. 1t would be we'll for clergy
men and others authorized by law to
perform marriages to make a note OF
the above fact, as there is heavy fine

An act of the last Legislature, which
is OF interest to constables, provides
that on the third Tuesday of February,
1896, and triennially thereafter, the
electors Of every township and borough
and, where the boroughs are divided
into wards, Of every ward, shall vote
for and elect properly qualified person
for high constable in each of the said
districts, and properly qualified per-
son for high constable in each OF the
said boroughs, and the persons so elect
ed shall serve for three years. The
constables all over the State were elect
ed for three years last February.
Previous legislation had done away
with the high constables. Now the
constables will, apparently, have to run

For the N. @. p. Encampment.

General Superintendent David Nc
Cargo and General Passenger Agent
James +. Anderson, Of the Allegheny
Valley railroad, after a month Of hard
work, can rest n little upon their oars,
feeling that Glencairn is about ready
for the annual encampment Of the
Second brigade, National Guard Of
Pennsylvania, which opens August 3.
With the traffic department of the road
they have also concluded all arrange
ments preparatory to transporting the
guard and visitors to the camping
grounds.
Since IL was decided that the guard
would campat Glencairn, the Allegheny
Valley officials have had their hands
full. The grounds which were original
ly pretty, have been improved to such
an extent that they would scarcely be
recognized. A siding has been con-
structed through them, water piped
from the Freeport water works and gas
turned into the parts where it will be
needed. The floors for the tents are all
layed and in fact everything is now in
readiness for the opening.
The encampment will open on Satur-
day and on Sunday guard officers esti-
mate that there will be about 10000
visitors to see the state defenders.
The Allegheny Valley has arranged to
run II trains daily between Pittsburg
and Glencairn during the encampment,
and on Sundays as many trains as are
needed will be in operation. People
have already begun TO visit the grounds.
1t is said that last Sunday saw almost
500 people inspecting the place.-Pitts-
