In the present century it is a standard currency in all countries where metallic money is recognized. “Biblical history speaks of silver in many places and it seemed to have such power that for its possession men, women and children were sold into bondage. Such we leara from the life of Joseph, who was sold by his brothers for twenty-nine pieces of silver. : ‘Was it not for this metal that Judas Iscariot sold our Redeemer.to. the Jews, and many other cases. where blood was bought by the power of this wealth ? ‘Tn ancient history gold -is more often spoken of, from the fact that it was frequently found'in its virgin purity, while silver seldom occurs in a metallic state, and when if does occur there are impurities about it that require chemical action to separate. ‘King Solomon must have been a mineralogist as well asa ruler, for it was he who made the remark many centuries ago that stands good to-day, He stated that ‘Silver is found in veins, but gold is wherey> er you find it.” In the days of Solomon there was more silver in circulation than at the present day. This to many may seem a broad assertion, but it is nevertheless true. Solomon is said to have had such an abundance of silver and that,it was almost worthless for commercial transactions, We hear of where it was cemented into stones in the city of Jerusalem, thay the rays of the sun wonld show off its brilliancy. “Polybins tells us that one time it was so plentiful that the temples were tilted with caps of gold and silver. In many temples the beams were of solid silver, and that none ‘but slaves wore the metal. If -onehalf of these assertions are true, the Holy Land, as a mineral producer, has no equal. But what looks strange is that of all the scientific men who have visited that country none speak of the ruins of these mines, “Our silver and gold is taken from excavations which seem almost an sibility to obliviate; and to destroy such traces in a country like disturbed by volcanic action, it seems to be an endless task, should they have so desired, The question now arises—Is Egypt such a rich country? Was not Solomon’s wealth obtained from the minesof Asia and Africa?’ A Sunpay law passed in 1702 remains on the statute hooks of Connecticut.

In the face ‘of this, the San Francisco Democratic organ will persist in the assertion that the Democratic party will elect the next’ President. It refuses to recognize the well-settled fact that straws show which way the wind blows.

If Senator Fair, of Nevada, lacks the statesmanlikeand oratorical qualificutions for which many of his predecessors have been and some of his fellow members are famous, he has more money than any of them ever had, and entertains in a corresponding style.

The labor difficulty still continues at Lawrence, Mass, Four hundred more operatives joined the strikers onthe 20th, and 300 more were thrown out-of employment on that night. The Grand Jury at Winnemucca, Nevada, has indicted L. J. Bozenburg for assault with intent to kill Deputy County Recorder Owens. Bozenburg is a young man, whose relatives reside at Sacramento, and are rich and respectable, Samuel Jenkins, a miner, fell 105 feet down the Northern Belle shaft at Candelaria last Friday end lived until the following day. Strange to say, there were no bones broken and he died from internal injuries. He was a native of Cornwall, England. Rev. W. B.

His remarks were applauded, The Southern Pacific Railroad Company has paid $25,000 on account of San Diego county taxes of 1880 and 1881, under the stipulation that the payments should not prejudice their case, and an agreement not to seek to recover should the Courts decide in their favor, While Victor Hugo was entertain ing the staff of the Raphael newspaper Monday evening, a telegram was received from St. Petersburg, announcing that the Czar had spared the lives of five Nihilists, in whose behalf Victor Hugo had pleaded. Onhearing this news Victor Hugo toasted the Czar. A free fight occurred among the crowd assembled at the Opera House at Pueb!o, Colorado, to witness a wrestling match between Leadville and Denver men, The latter won, and the Leadville men declared the decision of the referee to be unfair, and pulling pistols threatened his life. Several \policemen mounted the stage, and during the melee that followed one man__was— knocked senseless and another was badly injured, Most people have forgotten if they ever knew, that there was a Canadian rebellion in 1837. A bill-has. been introduced in the Dominion Parliament to pension all sGrvivors: of those who did military service for the government—at that time. It seems, however, that a number who then figured as rebels are now in infitential positions, and if + pensions are grauted at all there must be enough of them to go ‘all around—to defenders and rebels alike.

Holman and B. F. Hows are Republican candidates for the State Senate from Calaveras county. Ira H. Reed is a Democratic candidate. The Healdsburg Enterprise says: “fhe probubilities are that Barclay Henley, of Sonoma county, .will be accorded the honor of the Democratic nomination as Congressman from the Third Dist: ict.” Governor Porter, of Indiana, says that the Republiéans in that . State Were never so well organized as théy are now. The result of this. year’s campaign, though, he believes will turn somewhat upon the temperance issue. The. Pehusylvania Democrats are being deluged™ with—-advice—bythe organs of the party. The belief seems to prevail among them’ that there isa promising outlook for their side this year,and the leaders are urged not to repeat the: blunders of past years. i The Kentucky Bourbons con,ratulate themselves that all :he Congressional Districts in that State can be made Democratic. No Republican member of the Upper House of the Legislature was given a place on the Apportionment Committee. Garfield received almost forty per cent. of the State in 1880, : Governor Crittenden,of Missouri,is strongly opposed to calling an extra session of the Legislature to redis. trict the State; but says he will be governed by the sentiment of the majority of his party. In order to learn what this is he is making lists of the papers that advocate or oppose asession. The majority so far is in favor of it, but no decision has been reached as yet. Wm. Brown, the author of the recent attack~in the Washington Post upon President Garfield over the signature of ‘Justice,’ was really a delegate to the Chicago Convention from Kentucky. Congressman White, of Kentucky, who was Chairman of the delegation from that State, says. the Kentucky Republicans all unite in dec’aring that he does not reflect any sentiment of the State in his assault upon Garfield. eee —_-__ For years the money-drawer of an inn near Philadelphia has’ been coutinually pillaged in a mysterious manner.
