An Imperfect Gold Coin.

Superintendent Beach of the street
cleaning department somo time since
found Il SO gold coin on a curbstone,
and it proved to be a curiosity, worth
as much as two ordinary So pieces, OH
account Of its having been "miss
struck"-that is, it had not been placed
.squarely in the die, and the milling on
one side was some distance from the
edge, while on tho other side there was
none. On mentioning the fact to an en-
ployeo i'll the San Francisco mint he
was told that tho coin was q counterfeit,
and that it was practically impossible
that q coin SO disfigured could have
been issued from any government mint.
When the coin was produced, the mint
employee, after putting it to all sorts of
tests, had TO admit that it was n genu.
inc coin, struck at the Philadelphia
mint, where every coin passes through
tho hands Of four persons who examine
it for defects, and he said he would not
have beloved it possible for such q coin
to escape them had ho not seen it

cardlnn, Mczzofanti's Memory.

Cardinal Mezzofanti had q
little short Of miraculous. DIR. Russell,
his biographer, says that tho cardinal
spoke with tho greatest ease 80 Ian
guages; that no spoke fairly we'll 81;
that he used occasionally, but not with
any hucncy, II more; that he spoke i'm
perfectly 8, and that he could read
II more. Taking in addition the num-
ber Of dialects ho used, somo so diverse
from tho mother tongue as to constitute
a different language, DR.. Russell says
that tho cardinal was master of no less
than Ill different languages and dia-
lects.
His German was so excellent that he
was taken for q native Of Germany,
whilo his French and English wero
equally puro. DR.. Tholuck heard him
nvors i'll German, Arabic, Spanish,
Flemish, English, Latin, Greek, Swe-
dish and Portuguese, at ono of tho
popo's receptions, and aftcrward Mezzo-
fanti gave him q poem in Persian and
left him to take q lesson in Cornish. He
knew several Of tho American Indian
languages and nearly all the dialects
Of India.
In spite of all these attainments, how
ever, lie was Il very dull man, and him
self said that no had 20 word for III
idea. Ho was remarkable only for the
number Of languages he knew, but was
not distinguished as Il grammarian, a
photographer, Il philosopher, a philolo-
gist or cthnologist, and added nothing to
a'.y department. of the study of language.

Declining Our Pronouna.

In o collection of tho possessions Of
tho late Robert Louis Stevenson there is
a letter showing the difficulties which
even such n master Of English as he ex-
pericnced i'll writing our language.
"When Invent a language" ho writes,
"there shall be q direct and indirect
pronoun differently declined, and then
writing will be some fun" This idea
he illustrates as follows:
Direct-He, him, his.
Indirect-Tu, tum, tus.
He adds i'll exemplifcation, "He
seized tum by tus throat, but tn at tho
Same moment caught him by his hair"

Too Big for her R.efehes.

People naturally resent any little
presumptuous airs Of others and the su-
percilious bearing of neighbors is re-
~luctaDtly recognized as evidence OF su-
periority. Some time STAGE to avoid un.
pleasantness we advisedG Gov. Tillman i'm
@ kindly way to cut a canal three miles
above City Hall in Charleston
ing the Ashley and Cooper, filling in
with the excavated earth between the
Battery and Fort Sumter and setting
apart the territory as o sort Of small
Principally to itself.
The advice went unheeded and we
be chary of our gratuitous coun-
sci in future. Charleston has for a
long time put on presumptions airs
For instance: 1t was exceeding pre-
sumption to set up q big fight at
her gate and win Immortality in
the little russell with the British
Off Moultrie some century back; then
to repeat the impudence in holding out
at Sumter to the glory of the Caucas-
sian contingent. Then contributing to
all the country the Pinckneys,
Lowndes, Laurens and the like early
in our Statehood was exceedingly
presumptuous. Then again one Of her
great statesman, Hayne, had the i'm
pudence to shed immortal lustre on the
State by his equal or rather over-equal
encounter with Webster in the Ma
tional parliament. Then it was very
presumptuous in Charleston at the ex-
pense Of millions to build the first
great rail road in the South connect
ing her seaboard with our upper coun-
try. In the first third Of the century
paying two thirds the taxes of the State,
then half, then q third and now about
one seventh is elevating the brow in a
way that demands some sort Of dire
and direct humiliation. Nodoubt there
may be small souls, and grovelling, in
that city and some vagabonds may
pusylanomously disregard the terms OF
the dispensary law. There are those
too who stand by their democracy and
believe in the doctrine of home rule
and the rule Of the majority, who chose
their Mayor and dcluded by some evil
genius as it were, insisted upon the
management OF their own city affairs.
All of which is nightly to be repro
bated by other good people.
Therefore the necessity to put over
their lofty pride and presumption,
real men, who would not sympathize
with overweening arrogance, strang-
ers and aliens, and men of brass to
tame and conquer any careering hui
mors among the women and children.
Smyth and his associates in their
assertion OF the right Of self gov
ment and the right of their con
stitucncy in the old line If Char
lesion arrogance and presumption,
must be reduced to subserviency.-
That men should presume to m ,con-
strue what is true democracy, honest
principle. that men should dare re-
member and presume to m~isinterprct
the manhood Of a James Conner, of
their breeding, blood, kindred and cit
izanship! so offensive, so offending, de-
serve the humiliation of q merccnary
constabulary, and Gov. Evans finding
the occasion, and the law to his hand,
is imperitively driven to spy out the
tools.

Tha Cnr.

For an indefinite period in this State
there has been talk about dog laws and
regulating the classic 'Boatswaip,"
and the immortal "Troup'' of half q
century back 1t seems that the dog
is q natural enemy to the innocent lamb
and the lamb.like shepherd. But we
go about getting o dog law wrong-end
foremost. Let q dozen farmers in a.
locality institute q sheep interest and
get wide awake to the business and let
the interest extend through a wide
section and very soon you will find an
anti-yallar dog Sentiment in the coun-
try. You will find that the dogs, will
disappear without any legislation. The
shot gun will do the work. AS the
thing now stands the people want the
dog because they have no sheep. Our
Senators are mostly c%ottontots, not ye
poetic Shepherds and their heads wool
gather when the dog is in debate. Get
the sheep first and then the dog will
go. The possum dog is in the trust
with the cotton hoe hand.
