cure loans to meet their obligations they
were coolly told that it was not safe to
loan money until the repeal Of the pur
chase clause Of the Sherman act. The
friends Of gold monometRllism insisted
that the repeal Of the purchase clause Of
the Sherman act would restore conf.
denCe throughout the country, invite an
inflow Of gold to our shores, and bring
universal prosperity. Just the reverse
has occurred. We have sold bonds to
the amount Of 112 million dollars since
the repeal in order to check the flow Of
gold from our shofes and to maintain
the single gold standard. The gold mono.
metRlliats have given the people an OBJ
ject lesson indeed-one that they will
not forget; an object lesson that has
been the best educator in favor Of bi.

"Why, think it dsmnable! And yet can see
that it is probably true"
"It is true, my dear Sydney. Now what could
benefit these schemers more than to have rebellion
break out in several states at once and have them
look as if they were too powerful to be put down by
the individual states, while Congress would be i'm
potent to help? Bethink you,--is this revolt con.
fined to Massachusetts,"
''No, our secret organization extends into Yer
mont, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and New Jersey, if not elsewhere; and
there will be some, if there have not been already
similar uprsings in New Hampshire and Vermont"
'Precisely Now, see if l do not prophesy cor
rectly For time you will meet with little opposi
ton and it will seem that you certain to succeed
in oVerthrowing the government. BoWdoin is one
of the plOtters, and he will not do you much harm
until you have gone far enough to make all the
people everywhere who have property or who are
great lovers of order think the State Govern
ments may all 60 to pieces if something is not done;
then BOWdoin will gather force and put down your
revolt. Washington and others will make the most
of your rebellion as an argument for calling con-
Vention to devise new system of government, and
such convention will probably be called and be-
fore they are aware of what they are DOING the
people of America will have nothing to show for
their eight years war but the one alteration in their
condition that American rich men will be their mas
ters and rulers instead of English rich men. See if
do not guess correctly
"For these reasons, my dear Sydney, wish you
had not gone into this enterprise; and L wish you
could honoraby get out of it yet. Think over what
have said till we meet again, and see what it comes
to in your active mind. Meantime, do nothing rash,
my dear Sydney. You are my only companion here
and l should be 10th to lose you"

rejecting upon what you have said, should still be

"Then, my dear Sydney, whether | approve or
not, you are my beloved friend, and shall stand by

reason why 1 should like him as l did, Well,
when / came to America, no matter how long ago, /
brought letter of introduction to Lee from an old
comrsde of his who had known him in Poland.
Through Lee became acquainted with number of
your public men; and for several years have spent
part of each winter at Philadelphia and New York.
Being of no party these men have talked freely to
me and in my presence; and thus l have picked up
some information which have never disclosed until
now.
"You may have suspected, but I kpoaO that your
rich public men, with Washington at their head are
planning an American monarchy modelled after that
of England, with Washington as monarch. Toward
the end of the war, Hamilton and others were plot
ting with Washington through Knox to march the
army to where Congress was sitting and, under pre-
tense that without stronger central government to
them the states would never pay the soldiers,
induce the troops to set up anew government which
would have been a monarchy; but Gates was also
secretly plotting to do the thing and was about
to succeed, when Washington heard of it, and in
order to beat Gates, who was rival, put an end to
the whole scheme. You remember Washington's
farewell letter to the Governors of all the States,
urging the formation of stronger government; and
you have heard the rumor credited by army officers
who had an opportunity to know, that the Society
of the Cincinnati was organized for the express pur
pose of bringing about aristocratic government.
have seen copy of the letter of the Massachusetts
delegates in Congress written to Governor Bowdoin
last winter distinctly charging this very thing and
warning the General Court against scheming which
is going on. You know how certain men, and none
more frequently than Washington, sneer at the
present Confederation as inefficient, declaring that
it calls for money for public purposes and the state
legislatures pay no attention to it, so that public
debts are defauted and all that and yet Congress is
poweress because it can not compel payment by the
states. What if tell you that these very men
themselves get control of the State Legislatures for
the express purpose of having them pay no attention
to the calls of Congress, and thus bringing the Con-
federation into contemp that they do this part of
their scheme to make the people willing to chsngethe

The same evening when Sydney and the Hermit
were holding this conversation Mrs StilWel and Ger
trude were sitting alone at home. For long time,
while her mother read Gertrude sat silently think
ing, when she abruptly asked:
"Mother, is Mr.. StllwelI really my father"
Mrs. Stilwe started as if Gabriel had sounded his
mighty trumpet blast. She tried to appear self
possessed but Gertrude's eyes were fixed upon her
keenly and eagerly and the mothers evident con-
fusion made the daughters gaze intensity into a
look Of joyful expectation which increased the con-
fusion. Finally, with an effort at reserve, Mrs.
StiWell answered frigidly:
Gertrude, think what such a question implies9
If Mr. Stlwel is not your father pray what opinion
have you of your mother?"
"Thst Mr.. Stilwell is her second husband, j." read.
lily answered Gertrude
"Who has been saying such things to you, chid?"
"No one. But have often wondered whether it
was not so; and would rejoice so to have it so.'
"Absurdl Dismiss the ridiculous notion from
your mind, and cease to indulge such unnatural
feelings towards your father Think Have you ever
known any other father since you were bornG"
"It seems to me sometimes that / have Some
times half remember another man holding little
me in his strong arms; and-it is like dream to me
almost had such good, kind, noble face SO
different from Mr. StilWells. Seems to me you held
me in your arms once, and he kissed me and went
away; and then you CRIED"
There were tears in the mothers eyes.
Astonishing You we're not more than year
and q half old when your uncle left us. Butt is
painful recollection to me, Gertrude. Pray, do not
sllude to it again."
$50 my dream comes to naught. 1t was only my
uncle, at last. have loved him a long time as my
father, and have so hoped it might be true"
But seeing that the subject panied her mother,
Gertrude pursued itno further after retired
In her own room she thought long over her mothers
conduct, and carefully recalled every look and act.
"Uncle," she reflected. "Wel there is sonset7ing
about it all which am not to be told for some rea
