THE CURRENCY REFORM.

We are authoritatively assured that
gress is as follows:
The redemption OF all obliga tons of
the government in gold on demand
Greenbacks, when once redeemed for
gold TO be re-iSSued only for gold
Permitting national banks to issue
notes TO the par value of their govern
ment bonds deposited in the Treasury.
instead of 30 per cent, as at present.
Permitting the minimum capital of
National Banks to be $4,000 instead of
SoO,OOO. as at present.
That Is TO establish the single gold
standard by law, as against the gov
eminent, though the government has
entered into no gold contracts in any
OF her debts or obligations.
Second: 10 retire the remaining green
backs. (Which are 4 favorite currency
with the people, for gold. which does
not circulate among the people, and
cannot do so except ut too great u cost,
and thus further contract The curren-
cy available for general use. as the
notes are only to be re-issued TO those
who offer gold for them.
Third: TO allow the national banks
to have. not merely 90 per cent. OF the
amount of bonds deposited in the Urea
sury to secure circulation, but the
whole amount in national bank notes,
to supply n currency at from to IL
per cent. per annum, instead of green
backs to keep down taxes at no charge
nor interest There is no hint that the
people would take these notes ut cur
rent interest (TJIE BANKS HAVE
THEM FREED and relieve the banks
of all trouble.
And fourth and last: national banks
in every village and at every cross
roads. with capitals of $4,000. to get
everybody Into their debt and devour
the country as well as the cities. No
State banks are suggested. nor any re-
lief from the Federal tax of ten per
cent. on old home institutions. OF the

That is the Republican programme of
currency reform, and what else. In the
same line. they may do depends only on
the blindness and folly of n people who

nit to everything. Great God! is there
no hand to save the people from this

The third. and 10y far the most import

Gogol's Cossock stories, GS1l), and sIll
continuing In Tolstois latest tales OF

originality or national self-conscious-
ness. The ideas Of the French philoso-
pliers dominated the intellectual life of
Russia. and the classic forms in their
new French dress. were the sole pat
terms of literary art.
The second period opens TO the reign
OF Alexander l. The literary circles of
Russia had caught the passion for ro-
nance kindled in the eighteenth cen

into fame by the wars of the Napoleon
ic era. Its beginning is marked by a
flood Of TRANSACTIONS from Buerger.

The form OF government proposed by
the American Commissioners to the Fill
ipinos Is absolute despotism so far as
they are concerned. The President and
Military Governor are of unlimited
power; and judges and all are Ameri-

the Filipinos. II they are to be pleased

so ones affection expands or contracts
with more or less money in the pockets

not so obvious in all persons. Some
