The News Tribune Jugs into
the financial discussion some
quotations of prices in Confed-
crate currency as an argument
against free silver. Silver has
been money from the very
earliest accounts in human his
tory. It is now quoted as hav-
ing deprecated in value. The
fact is that the depreciation is
only as compared with cornered
gold, and as compared with the
products of labor-the actual
wealth of the country-silver
has not deprecated in value at
all. An ounce of silver is
worth as much or more of the
results of human labor today
as it ever did in the history
of the human race. It is pri-
mary money over greater por-
ton of the globe and for more
people than gold. It would
seem, therefore, that the man
who compares silver with Con-
federate currency is either a fit
subject for the asylum or he
thinks the rest of the people
are. ..

If men are dying from star

people rise against the manipu-

hang them? People are now
suffering even to death from
starvation. They can get no
work because of the hard times
due to the lack of money and
the consequent inability of the
public to buy the products of
their labor. For this condition
of things the opponents of free
coinage of silver are responsible.
Let them beware. When they
come face to face with the un-
erring and eternal Judge they
will have to answer for the

them for justice.

An increased supply of
money, such as would come from
the free coinage of silver, hurts
the gold hoarders. So, if wheat
were all cornered and forced to
a starvation price, the coming
on to the market of a bountiful
crop would hurt the fellows
who had cornered the old sup
ply.

COPYRIGHT. 1861


There is the present; and it is golf,
pt,ycle, driving-and golf.
There is the future; and it is we'd
dings, yachting, Newport, more golf
and more weddings.
And the gowning of the present and
the future is the gossip of to-day. l
have noticed:
That the new sleeve is not carrying all
before it, or, rather, the new sleeve diff
fers not so widely from the old as, in it's
braver youth, it made threats to do.
That many bridesmaids in June will
wear, as did many in April, big hats
piled high with plumes and fastened by
enormous bow ties of white tulle under
the chin.
That bridesmaids gowns of pink satin
brc4ade, with bodices of pink chiffon,
for snaids all brunettes, will march har-
moniously with bridal gown of the
usual white satin and point lace.
That the prettiest opera gown taken
from New York TO London for the end
OF the season there was in brocaded
satin of pale blue and silver with straps
of very deep blue velvet over the shoul
ders supporting the very low corsage.
That one of the prettiest bonnets of
the late spring is a huge butterfly bow,
jutting far over the ears on either side

An intelligent and ph!anthropic

and recalling the pretty Dutch bonnets
of some time ago.
That the short British driving jacket
shaped like IA soapbox has been smart
ened by Partisan genius into a very
creditable garment, slightly shaped to
the figure, though not close, and fitted
with voluminous fancy lapels. In Other
words, it is the same thing, yet absolute
ly different.
That the starched shirt waist, or shirt
waist front, barred across in Sing Sing
fashion, white stripes on blue or pink,
or the reverse and with barred buttons,
is as smart as it is unlovely, and will be
this year u considerable favorite.
That very chic, shapely hat
quite low crowned, recalls by its shape
the "beefeater" and hourglass chapeauS
OF last year. 1t is as if the high hour
glass crown had been smashed half way
down with brick, when it became the
bcefcater shape; the next brick fattens
it to an inch or so in height and produces
fiat crowned hat, which, with three
"ich dien" plumes on the left, rising from
a jungle of ribbon bows, is very pretty.
That a boating or yachting hat, plait-
cd in dark blue straw, has such n wide,
low crown, wide brim, II lace bow in
front, held by buckle, small black and
white feathers and wreath of roses and
ivy leaves.

ing all provided for behind, where it is
screened by the skirts of short jacket
or by the basque bob-tails so many
gowns now show. A very smart
variety of jacket comes square to the
waist line on either side, drops in two
moderate points in front and at the
back overhows in short but decisive
swallow-tail. Such a jacket has cuffs
/ with points to match the front, fiat
gold buttons, a moderate lapel, and is
worn over Il starched shirt front. For
isstarce, dark-green jacket over a
WHITE front striped with lighter green
Or dark-blue jacket may be worn over
shot blue or white soft vest.
Starched fronts may have their un
lovely lines disguised by fichu of soft
lace falling from the collar and thrust
cravatwise into the open front Sucf
vests have visible buttons only about
half way up, to leave plenty of room fol
the fichu.
Skirts are still mainly plain, but there
are slight ebullitions of rebellion from
the mode. Many otherwise obedient
indulge themselves in rows of conspic
uous stitching about the bottom.
Another device is winked at by Dame
Fashion. Let there be jacket made
say of almond green or some shade nC
darker. Let the jacket curl out at tht
hips in those saucy littlc basque tails 81

The conduct of a woman on shipboard
is a subject impossible to predict; the
weather makes difference, don't you
know. But it is easier to forcsee that
she will go abroad for her annual trip
to the London Mecca of the fashiona-
bles with at least the determination to
be charming during every hour of the
voyage when she is visible. Hence she
trips up the gang-plank in all the glory

but when the plank is drawn she goes
below, to bob up serenely in long min

but "to be beautiful one must suffer"
as the French philosophers say, and

VARIOUS USES OF SALT.


II Few Examples.
One pint of fine salt mixed with two
pmts of wood ashes and mixed with
water will mend cracks in stoves. When
rlinl,ers accumulate in the CRATE, throw
in handful of salt, let stand few min
utes and they will be easily removed.
a teaspoonful added to the water in
which cut flowers are placed will pre-
serve them for a considerable time,
ana a little rubbed on the les be-
fore greasing will prevent cakes from
sticking. Damp salt will remove the
liscoloration caused by tea on cups
md saucers; if sprinkled Immediately
over any spot where something has
boiled over on the stove. there will be
no odor, and the sPot will be easily
cleaned. a Tablespoonful put in ligro-
sene lamp will make the oil give a
brighter light. and small pinch added
to the starch will prevent ii sticking to
the irons. If your ingram carpet looi>s
Gingy sprinkle little salt over it and
let it lie for at least five minutes, then
sweep it thoroughly, and you will be
surprised to see how much brighter It
will look.
One of the best things for cleaning
brass is salt dissolved in vinegar. Cot
ton fabrics are less likely to fade if
llowed to lie for short time in
strong solution of salt and water.
Sprinkle damp salt around where
there are moths and they will speedily
take their departure.

The theatrical entertainments were
very good, and the cost of attending
them was exceedingly small. While in
the leading theaters in London or Paris
tncre is usually one great actor or sing
er who overshadows the rest of the
company, in Italy all the actors were
more nearly on the same level. Many an
evening we have enjoyed an Italian play
or opera ut the modest cost of Ira
pence-halipcnny). In the summer
lime when tho Apollo and the Vale
were closed the Correa was opened in
the Mausolcum of Augustus; there was
no roof to it but the sky. The perform
ance began at five and ended at eight or
half-past. The price of chair in the
pit was O. Ira, and there was no objec-
uon to n cigar. The last time we were
there the play was Shakespeare's "Ro-
meo and Juliet" The acting was eX-
cellent, and the text of Shakespeare
translated into Italian was closely fol-
lowed. In the Italian theaters then
you could for Ira have seen Idstori
and Salvini in the same plays as they
performed in London, where gold had
to be paid for entrance.-Chambers
