The difference at market has been on the decrease. The financier states It as present as at 1114 to 1. Just principles will lead us to disregard legal proportions altogether ; to Inmilie Into the iiiarltct pilco of gold In ttiu se\eral countries with which we shall principally be con nected In commerce and to taho an average from them Perhaps wo might with safety lean to a proportion somewhat above par for gold , considering our neighborhood and commune with the source of the coins , and the tcndejir ) which the high price of gold In Spain has , : > draw thither all that of their mines , leaving silver principal ! } for our and other markets.

" In his supplemental- explanation to the notes lie sa3 "I ohsorvpil In the preceding notes that the true proportion of value between gold and silver was a mcicantllo problem altogethei and that perhaps 15 to 1 might bo found an eligible proportion. The financier Is so good as to Inform , me that this would bo higher than the market would justify. Confident of his better Information on this subject , I recede from that Idea , " In a foot note to this last passage ho says : "In a newspaper which frequently gives peed details In political economy , I find under the Hamburgh head that the present market price of gold and silver Is In Eng land. 1D.5 for 1 ; In Itussla. 15 ; In Holland , 1475 ; In Savoy , 14.C ; In France , 14.4 : ! ; in Spain , 1 1.3 , In Germany , 11155 ; the average of which Is 14.675 , or 11 % . I would still Incline to give a little more than the market price for gold , because of Its superior con venlenee In transportation. " The foregoing quotations contain every thing to ho found In the "Notes" and "Sup plementary Explanations" on the subject of ratio. It will bo observed that Jefferson teaches 1. That the legal latlo mid the market ratio are not necessarily one and the same. 2. That the market ratio Is the controlling one. 3. That If the legal ratio differs from the market ratio , the metal which Is under valued , be it gold or silver , will disappear from the currency of the country. 1 That In determining our mint ratio tve must have regard to the countries with which we are connected In commerce. 5. That It any preference Is given by law to cither metal. It should be given to gold. Jeffer on never wrote or Bpoke a word In contravention of the "Notes , " which remains to this day one ot the classics of financial llteratuie Writing concerning the subject -on August 22 , 17Sf > to William Grayson , George Wash ington h.iIJ "I thank you for the several articles of Intelligence In } onr letter , and for the prop ositions respecting coinage of gold , uilve ! and copper , a measure which. In my opin ion , has become Indispensably necessary Mr Jefferson s Ideas upon this subject aio plain and simple ; well adapted , I tblnlc , to the nature of the cabo ns he has exempli lied b ) the plan Without a coinage , or un less boi.it' btop can be put to the cutting and cllpjping of money , our dollars , plsta reens , etc will bo converted , us leagui nays , Into fixe quartets , and a man must travel with a pair of money hcales In lilt pocket or run the risk of reaching gold at one-foiuth less by weight than it counts. " Aside from the express approval of eJffer- BOII'S vlcwc contained in the foiegolng let ter , It is appaient that Washington bo- llovisl money bhould have an Intrinsic vnlue and pa.33 current accordingly. Alexander Hamilton might also bo quoted In support of Jcffeibon. but ho was not a democrat , so let him pass. The gient financier of the democracy was Albert Callatln. The ratiu adopted by Hamilton In l K was Ifi ot silver to 1 of gold. As It proved , this was nn undervaluation of gold , Wrltlni ; to Ingham , on August 4 , 1S20 , Qullatin et > i\ \ "Thoie Is no doubt ns to the fact of out mint regulations having rated gold too low nor aa to the propriety of raising It to lit market inluc , unless we Intend to exclude gold tolns altogether.

The latlo'c' 15 to 1 adopted In 1702 was found by experience to be nn underestima tion of gold , and while this undervaluation did not exceed 'I per cent , It resulted that wo bed no gold In our circulation. SKCItnTAHY CUAWrOHI ) . Fpcaklng with reference to this , William H. Crawford , who In 1S20 , was secretary of the treasury under President Monroe , said : "It Is believed that gold , when compared with slUrr , has bepn for many 3ears ap- prcrlatlng In value , and now everywhere commands In the money markets a higher value than that which has been assigned to It in states where Its relative value Is greatest. If this bo correct , no Injustice will result from a change in the relative lifinl value of gold and silver , so as to make It eoncspond with their relative market vnlue. If gold , In relation to silver , should be raised 5 per crnt , one ounce ot It would be equal to 15.75. or fifteen and three- quarters ounces of pure silver. This aug mentation In Its value would cause It to be Imported In quantities suillclent to perform all tbo functions of currency. " And In 1SH1. during General Jackson's first administration , a committee- congress re ported "In the United States , before the estab lishment of the present government. It has heretofore been ascertained by a committee of congress that by custom the value of gold has hi en consldcied ns equivalent to about 150 of Its weight In silver. This without doubt , arose from finding this to be the average of the different values aflKed to the gold In different foiclgn countries "Why It was thought proper , on establish , ing the mint of the Unltrd States , to re duce this value to 15 to 1 Is not now nn- tcilal to Inquire It Is sufflclpnt to know from unhappy c.\perlence that Its tendency Is to rid us of a gold currency and leave us nothing but silver. 'The merchants. If they have occasion to Import specie , and cannot obtain silver , are compelled to Import gold at n loss of from 2 to 10 per cent. If the } have o icmlttaiice to make they will , If possible , exchange silver for gold , ns thereby they will gain from 2 to 10 per cont. according to the value of gold In the country tovlilch the remit tance Is to bo made. " TOM UHNTON rou GOLD. President Jackson and his especial repre sentative In the senate , Thomas H. IJenton determined that at all hazards they would restore gold to our currency. They agred with Jefferson that If any mistake was made It should be In favor of gold. The reasons for preferring gold are thus stated by lien- ton In his "Thirty Years' View. " "Mr. n. did not think It necessary to de- acant and ep.itlnto upon the merits and ad vantages of a gold currency. These advan tages had been too well Known , from the earliest ages ot the world , to be a subject of discussion In the nineteenth century , but , .ns It was the policy of the paper system to disparage that metal , and as tlint system. In Its forty years' reign over the American people , had nearly destroyed a knowledge of that currency , ho would brlelly enumerate Its leading and prominent advantages. (1) ( ) It had an Intrinsic value , which gave it currency all over the world , to the full amount of that value , without regard to laws or circumstances. (2) ( ) It had uni formity ot value , which madeIt the safest standard of the value of property which the wisdom of man had ever } ct dis covered. (3) ( ) Its portability , which made it easy for the traveler to carry It about with him. (1) ( ) Its Indestructibility , which undo It the safest money the people could keep In their houses. (5) ( ) Its Inherent purity , which made It the baldest money to be counterfeited , and the easiest to bo de- toctcd , and therefore the safest money for the people to handle. ( C ) Its superiority over all other money , which gave Its possessor ser the choice and command of all other money. (7) ( ) Its power over exchanges , gold being the currency which contributes most to tht' cquallratlon ot exchange , and keeping down the rate of exchange to the lowest and most uniform point. (8) ( ) Its power over the paper money , gold being Uio natural enemy of that system , and. with fair play , able to hold It In check (9) ( ) It is a constitutional currency and the people have a right to de mand It , for thrlr currency , as long as the present constitution Is permitted to exist. " In this same speech , as reported In the "Thirty Years' View , " "Mr. B. made his ac knowledgments to the greit aspostle cf American liberty ( Mr Jefferson ) for the wise , practical Idea that the value of gold was a commercial question , to bo settled by its vnluo In other countries. Ho hnd seen that remark In the works of thn great man and treasured It up HH teaching the plain and ready way to accomplish an apparently difficult object ; and IIP fully concurred with the senator fiom South Carolina ( Mr. Calhoun - houn ) that gold in the United States , ought to be the preferred metal ; not that silver should be expelled , but both retained ; the mistake. If any. to bo In favor of gold in stead of being against It " CALHOUN'S Vinv.'S. What Calhoun had said to which Mr Itcnton made reference was the following , contained In his speech on the United tSates bank : "At the expiration of six years from the commencement of thn renewed charter , let the bank be prohibited from Issuing any note under $20 , and let no num under that amount bo lercived In the dues ot the gov ernment , except In specie , and let the value of gold bo raised at least equal to that of alher , to take effect Immediately , ao that the country may be replenished with the oln. the lightest and most portable In pro portion to Us value , to take the place of the receding bank notes. It Is unnecessary for no to state that at piescnt the standard of fold Is several per cent less than that cf silver , the necessary effect of which 1ms been to expel gold entirely from our circu lation , and thus deprive us of n coin so v ell calculated for the circulation of a eoun try so great In extent , and having so vast n Intercourse , commercial , toiiul and po lltlcal. between all Its parts as ours. " In anothci speech Mr Calhoun states his opinion of R depieclated currency : "Nothing Is more stimulating than an expanding and depreciating cuirency it crcptio a delusive appcarancu of piosperlty , which puts e\erythlng In motion i\ < : r > one feels as If ho were growing richer as pilccs rise , and that he has It In Ills power by foresight and exertion to make his for tune , liut It Is the nature of stimulants , moral as well as I'VsJral to excite at first and depress afterward The draught which at first causcH unnatural excitement and energy Is sure to terminate In correspond- In * ; depression and weakness ; nor Is It less ccituln that the stimulus of u currency ex- paulng beyond Its proper limits follows the same law Wu have had thu exhilara tion , and the depression has succeeded , we : \a\o had the pleasure of getting drunk and iiow CApeileuce thu pain of becoming sober The good has gone and the evil has suc- cerdrd , and on a fair calculation the latter will be found to bo greater than Iho former " Mr HO an and Mr. Dlaml are teaching that cheap money , which will cause a rUe of prlcts , is a great boon to thu wage-worker TIUiN"S OPINION Hut Mr. Samuel J Tllden concurred with Calhoun and Webster , and this is what he sa.s "Wages are estimated In two modes the ono In money , when they arc called money or nominal wages ; and the other by the amount of necessities and comforts of life which they will purcuube , when they are called reel wages , "Fluctuations In the currency produce the same fluctuations In money wages as In money prices. They subject the mechanic and the laborer to the same uncertainty , miscalculation and disappointment In busi ness that fluctuations in prlios do the firmer , the merchant and the manufacturer. Not only this. Wages tlo not always rise anj fall In exact proportion to prices ; and It usually happens that when prices nre high thp mechanic and the laborer find their command over the means of subsist ence diminished , nml that when prices are low thpy are often , especially If congregated In large establishments , deprived of their accustomed employment. On the whelp , then , they suffer more by Iho vicissi tudes of the currency and business than nny other class , nnd have consequently a greater Interest than nny other In the es tablishment of a stable currency. " MANNING ON I'UCK SILVER. Mr. Daniel Manning , the friend of Tll- dcn , nnd secretary of the treasury during Mr. Cleveland's first administration , ad dressing himself to the silver problem ns It now exists , and to the demand for free coinage without regard to the aid or con sent of any other nation whatever , said In his report for 1SSG : "Tho free silver coinage prescription for the monetary dislocation sallsflea but one of the several Indispensable conditions which I have set forth above In full detail. While it Is nn indispensable condition of p"ernm- nent restoration that the fieo monetlratlon of sliver shall be equally complete- of gold. } ct wrrp It now given to silver In this nctunl moment of dislocation , the practical icsult would bo to withdraw the game from gold. That would be a challenge without nd- vantaqe In any respect , nml In every respect with dlsidvnntnge. In the first place. It would bring Us to the Asiatic silver bnsls This has been commended In some quarters There Is , however , no such public desire The preponderance of public opinion seems overwhelming In favor of the Joint use of both mctnls No party nnd no administra tion could survive or would deserve to sur vive the deliberate or the unforeseen and unprevcnted change to n silver basis. Hut the proot Is simple that the free coinage of silver now would nt once entail n sliver basis Offered by the open mint to both metals , free coinage of sliver for sllvei owners Into legal tender dollars would stop the use of the mint for free coinage of gold b } gold owners It would slop the simul taneous circulation of gold nnd silver dollars lars The gold would bo at n premium and be exported. " There Is none among the democrats of the past none of enduring fame who has given the sanction ot his authority to tin teachings of the democratic platform of this } ear. that , regardless ot market values and regardless of the usage of other na tions , we can coin silver and gold at the ratio of 1C to 1 and keep both metals in our currency Not one ot the fathers be lieved that values could bo created by legis lative flat , or that 'which was false could be by legal enactment made true. We boast ourselves the disciples of Jef ferson , and still when a platform Is promul gated which Ignores all his teachings ami those of his successors In the "long and Il lustrious line ot democratic leadership from Madison to Cleveland , " we me told bj Senator Vest "to vote the ticket first and read the platform afterward. " Against that advice , which , acted upon , would de stroy all Individual freedom and lesponsl- bllity , let us oppose the example of Jeffer son himself , who said , "I never submitted the whole sjstcm of my opinions to thn creed of any party of men whatever , in religion , In philosophy , In politics or In any thing else , where I was capable of thinking for myself. Such an addiction Is the last degradation of a free nnd moral agent. If I could not go to heaven but with a party I would not go there at all " To those who have been democrats In the past and who have not abandoned the ancient faith , the path of duty is plain. COM ) I'MKI.n.S OF (3tJIA\A. Ail Arliriinn Minor's I'rnsiieetliiK Tom- Ammitr Tlx-iii. Thomas Dalglelsh , an old Arizona miner , has written an account of bis own personal adventures among "The Gold Fields of Gui ana , " for the September Century. Mr. Dal- glclsh says : The first fine placer on the Cuyunl was found in ISO'S by n Fienchman named Ja cobs. His outfit was furnished by two Portuguese tuguese named Carrara and Uosa. They took out fiom 200 to 300 pounds a month for two or three jears , the gold being worth $193 n pound. When I leached there , In 1 ! > 93 , the placer was In full working order Jacobs Is bald to have disposed of his gains at Monte Carlo ; Cairura died Insolvent , Hosa left a few thousands ; that Is , In brief , the history of the ownen of one of Hie richest placer-mines In that country. The mine was sold In 1893 for $1,500 , and Ja cobs is now simply an employe in the placer The Harnard syndicate has taken out a great deal of gold from placers situated on the Potaro river , but It is my Impression that placer-mining Is about over unless new- territory Is opened up. Quartz-mining Is still in Its Infancy. There nre at present two quartz mines in operation on the Darlma river with a good showing , but they are In the disputed territory , and , I think , hair been obliged to shut down. Quartz on the Cuunl Is finely defined , although there Is not a quartz mine on the river at present but In all probability good quartz mines will yet bo woikcd in Drltlsh Guiana. At present It is Impossible for a poor man to prospect to advantage in that country He must purchase all his piovlsions at Georgetown ; buy or hire a boat , pay big wages to his captain and bowman , and glvo security for the wages of his men , and pay for their food. I have known only one or two poor men who have made a stake out there. After prospecting three or four months which is very fatiguing and tiylng to the constitution of the strongest , a man may find nothing , but he will have learned a good deal Then ho may take a notion. If ho has a few hundreds left , to buy another outfit This time he may finfl a creek that will pay liim ono or two ounces n day In the torn Whin that much Id got in the torn sluices are boon put In , which } leld two or three times as lurch gold If ho has the good Cortuno to keep his health and to find gold he has to carry hU yield to Hartnca Grove , where ho passes through the gold station Hero every man , both laborer and master U searched. Some think this very disagree able , but I sco nothing objectionable In the law. which is a great piotection to tht [ ilacer owner , the object being to prevent laboiers and others from stealing gold. At Georgetown he must catry his gold to the commissioner's ofllco , where ho gets a per mit to pay the royalty at another covcrn- ment otllce , after which ho may sell It to the banks. Miners arc not allowed to .sell gold In the bush or In Georgetown ICach day a miuci mist enter his llnd In his gold books and If an Inspector Bhould come along and find gold that was not entered ho might confiscate It This Is why a miner must buy his entire outfit In Georgetown and have money enough to sre himself through before he starts All the British colonial officials , at least all that I came In contact with , are polltu and gentlemanly. I have met foreigners who think their laws are very stringent , but I would rather bo where there Is some law than on the other side of the Yuruan , wlicic there Is none.

A nou-s IM.IU in'io\ , \iiprrtflnllnn of HU Mn - Icr'w I'ftflrntl , That the lower animal has the essential power by which a likeness as well as a reflection Is recognize Is made plain , says n writer In Forest and Stream , by what I have witnessed the dog fnot n show dog ) , nodgerfleld by name , of my friend and aetor. Mr. W , n. Dalton , do Pcdestnllcd pieces of tin nre placed In disorder on the floor , on which arc painted the Arabic figures 1 , 2 , 3 , 4. Nfltnc | any ono of these figures and Dotlgerfietd will bring to you the piece of tin on which It Is painted. This proves beond question. If It needs any proof and I find that everj thing In animal psychology has to be proved that Dodgcrfield has one of the faculties essential to the perception of a likeness , the faculty ot form. Without It , It would bo utterly Impossible for him to distinguish one figure from another by sight , and I have taken pains to provo thnt he docs not distinguish the tins upon which they nre painted by scpnt. The other faculty necessary to dis tinguish n colored likeness Is , of course , that ot color. That Dodgerficld has that Is ptoved In this way : Four handkerchief o one white , ono red , ono orange and one Gieen are laid In disorder on the floor ; you ask for the ono } ou want , naming the color , nnd Dodgerfleld will bring It to > ou. Here , ngnln. I can assure the reader the dlatlngulshment Is not through scent Now , } ou have a beefsteak painted by n competent , realistic artlsl. Sl'ow It to your dog. See how quickly his attention It at tracted. He may not sink his teeth Into the picture , but this wilt not be because he does not perceive Us form and colors. but because the mistake made by hla eyes Is corrected by his nose. If } ou could make the plcturt ) smpll precisely as n beefsteak > ou would thoioughly fool the dog. ns thor oughly as 1 have seen men fooled by n painted greenback. Under the date of March 27. Mr. Dalton sas : "Dodgeilleld has developed n fond ness for sleeping on our bed In preference to his own. His bed U a small cotton pad In n basket. Ho has settled himself upon our bed every night after the performance of late , and It has icqulrcd quite a com manding tone to Induce him logo to his own when the time comes for us to go to ours. Last Thursday the climax came , and wo surmise that ho tilled sonic of his do/Ing moments tl.iough the day In devising some way of attaining the desired bed ; for ul- most Immediately upon our returning from the theater , ho , ot his own fiee will nnd direction , dragged his pad from his bask-t , which Is In u closet , then across a four- tcen-fo t loom to our bed , nnd Jumped upon it , tugging the pad nfter him Then spreading It out the best ho could , ho lay down upon It nnd went to sleep" That Dodgeilleld reasoned In this action there can be no doubt. 1 have nlund } shown tl'nt he has two other faculties nee- cessary to the perception of a portrait that of form and that of color. That he has the fouith that of the povvr of the perception ot the Individual wi'uln the person is so apparent that Mr Dalton thinks him capable of receiving Impre'jslo.is , even thoughts , through telepathy. Now , weio Mr Dalton or any ono else to tell me that Dodgci field had known a portrait trait , I would not think the stat nK'iit wild Hut such a thing neither , Mr. Dalton nor anybody else has told me , with relation to Dodgerllcld.
