Most Ancient Coins.

The Parian Chronicle ascrlbes the
first coinage of copper and silver
money to Pheidon, king Of Argos in
Aegina, 500 B. c., which Aelian zorro
borates; and the best numismatlc an
tiquaries agree in considering the
coins of Aegina, from their archaic
form and appearance, as the most an.
cient known. The coins Of Lydia prob
ably come next in antiquity, and then
the early Dorics Of the Persian kings,
which occur both in gold and silver,
and bear a strong resemblance to the
coins OF Aeglna.

this short line would be over two
miles long.
This cannot be done in my judg-
ment, because it would deprive the
owners of land already located in
Texas of their vested rights to
these lands, therefore my bill pro-
viding for a straight line to be run
from one end of the Clark line to
the other, is the only just and leg
al way of settling this vexed ques-
ton; for the reason that the old
Clark line as run and marked on
the ground in 1858, was declared
by Congress and the State legis-
ldture, by Acts passed in the year
1892, to be the line between Texas
and New Mexico, and surveys on
both sides of this line have been
made to conform with these acts, and
the letter sent you shows conclus-
lively that the United States is not
claiming any land east of that line
Il deem this explanation neces-
sary, so that the question may be
fully understood.
Il shall do everything | can to
secure the passage of my bill
through this Congress.
