The three guns open on tiem at once with shell, but the lines form and dress und-r fire with a cool us that excites ad mi ration.

At the second battle of I hill Hun our colonel was ordered to hold a position on the right at whatever cost; and the word was passed along the lines that no one should go to the rear on any excuse, even for fresh cartridges. For two hours we lay in lines on the ground without firing a shot, though the enemy's bullet.s, and now and 'then a shell, fell among us to wound and kill. While we were enduring it as best we could a private named Stevens looked back at the captain and asked: "Cap. can I go to the rear after water?" "Against orders," was the reply. Fire minutes later Stevens looked back and held out a M m dy hand nml said: "Cap, can 1 go to the rear and have the thumb amputated?'' "Against orders!" was the answer. Seven or clglii minute later Stevens received n bullet in hU shoulder, and. sitting up. he pressed his hand to his wound and queried : "Cap. can 1 go to the rear with two wounds?" "Wait until the colonel comes this way and I'll ask him." The colonel was then riding down to us behind the lines. In alnmt live minutes he was up. and our captaiu 5y '1 "Cap, Can I Go to the Hear With Two Wound t" was about to address him. when Ste vens called out: "Never mind. Cap I'm a dead man and don't want to go to the rear!" With that he fell over and straggled for a moment and was dead. A bullet had passed clear through him liefore he called out. Talking It Over. Three months after Joe Skinner de serted from our regiment he was capt- ured on his farm at home by the pro- vost marshal and sent back to his reg- iment in Irons for trial. He had do- serted in the face of the enemy, and it was generally believed that he would be shot, and great was the astonish- meat, therefore, when he got oil with a three months sentence to the Dry Tortugas. When Joe was brought be fore his judges he had a simple story to tell, and he told it in a simple way. Said he: "I got to thinkiu' it all over, and come to the conclusion that we'd had enough war. 1 started out from camp i Talking It kept walkin" and Over. walkin' until and met i J a reb. 'Hello.

Iiy slow degrees we are getting to know the contour of the sea bottom almost as well as we do that of the surface of the land, but it cannot be said that we have found the deepest water on earth. Depths of 1",000 to J7,3GG feet have been reached in the North Atlantic from time to time, and one of 27,930 feet was discovered in the North Pacific off the eastern coast of Japan, where there is a remarkable gulf or depression. All these measure ments have, however, been outstripped by one recently taken south of the Friendly Isles in the South Pacific by II. M. S. Penguin. A depth of LN.(400 feet had been marked when the sound ing wire gave out before the lead had reached the bottom. A fresh somding will therefore have to be made lefore we tan tell the full depth of water at this spot. London Public Opinion. Tlif SufCKentlon Was Not Adopted.

UNPATRIOTIC AND SOCIETY'S ENEMY. If There An Kxreptlon (and There Are) They Should Come Out and lift Heard In Itelulf of the Suffering; Peo ple. It is possible to conceive of a banker possessing large ability and great in fluence, and observing that his coun try suffers because its finances are in disorder, coming forward, impelled by feelings of patriotism, to offer, without hope of money reward, his advice and his assistance in the work of restoring order and confidence. Such a man, performing such a service, would de serve and would receive honor from his countrymen. The land is tilled with bankers, great and -small; but where among them appears a figure of this kind in the present crisis? In stead there looms up before a nation bewildered and befooled by the public press quite another figure. It is that of the variety of banker who first pro cures ths rejection of one of the money metals: who then instructs the dull witted people that there can be no other sound money than the remaining metal; who then proceeds to corner the gold, which could not have been cor nered had silver been retained; and who. finally, making the treasury of the United States his victim and the peace and honor of the country his plaything, proceeds to gorge himself with the profits of his thimble-rigging operations. With one hand he creates panic; with the other he despoils the wealth-producers of the fruits of their toil. He intimidates the newspapers: he cows other bankers who wish to In , d d h h bullies menibeM . , J ' , j of congress so that they dare not speak in defense of their constituents; he creates a reign of terror in which it is j hardly safe for a free American citizen even to hint at the fact that his policy is that of the brigand and the thief. In truth, the performances of Captain Kidd were the most frolicsome gam bols of an innocent child compared with the plundering of this bandit who makes the prosperity of a great nation his prey, and the treasury of the rich est country In the world a mere con duit to turn into his pocket the gains filched from the possession of honest men. The banker performs a most useful function in modern society. No Judi cious man will complain if, while en gaged in lending money at reasonable interest, men who are in that business shall acquire a good share of the wealth created by the labor of others. Many bankers are Just as good men and just as good and loyal citizens as other men. and are as incapable of doing a dis honorable or unpatriotic act. But the ; banking class suffers just now in popu ! lar esteem because, as a class, it has ' rallied to the support of the nefarious ; gold system, and because it gives a 1 least tacit approval to the great money sharps in the large cities vho have t i rigged the treasury for their persona j advantage. These big bankers ap pear to terrorize the smaller bankers as they do the public newspapers an members of congress; and meantime al i the banking interest, too eager for gain manifests anxiety to obtain for itself control of the money issues of the coun try, which should remain in the hands of the government. The notion, assid uously urged, that a man, because he is a banker, knows more about these things than other men. is conspicuous ly absurd. The general run of bank ers is composed of men of very moder ate ability. Some bank presidents art hardly able to write a letter containing correct syntax and orthography. Hut. whether they be wise or foolish, it is no part of their business to undertake to direct, single handed, the finances of the nation; and the people will not have it. If the bankers had real wis i dom they would perceive, that their prosperity of the wealth producers and in refraining from increasing the pop ular feeling of antagonism to banks and bankers. We say to them that Mr Cleveland's recent performances and the rapacious greed of certain powerful bankers have not only done more than anything else to hasten the overthrow of the gold system, but also to create dislike of bankers which may bear bit ter fruit at an early day in the shape of hostile legislation. The Manufacturer. A BLOW IN FAVOR OF SILVER. Struck by Kngland, hut Kvidently With out Intention. To the Editor of the Ledger: No more forcible argument has been made for the return by this country to a bimetal lic standard than the threat of the Eng lish bankers to destroy the credit of thi3 nation if it persits in the attempt to maintain national honor. Our Eng lish masters can well afford to press the cup of humility, filled with the dregs of dishonor, to the lips of those who, self-seekingly, have made the financial affairs of this nation depend ent upon the whims and policies of the European bankers. Like sharks they have followed the ship of state, wait ing for the storm that, in the distress they might fatten and feast. Here is a nation first in resources, first in the geniti3 of application, first in native powers, abashed by a coterie of English Shylocks. who threaten to visit dire disaster upon it if the attempt is made to uphold a long and estab lished national policy; and congress, yea, the wise (?) men of the land are compelled to counsel over the displeas ures of this cabal. Is it not about time for some modern Monroe to arise and ar.uounce a dis tinctive American policy one that will not entangle itself in European greed, or bt subservient to the pleasure of money sharks? In which lurks the more venom, in which lies the greater danger, England's aggressions on a South American republic, or English mastery of American finances? A su premacy so potent that national esteem, dignity and honor must tremble in as serting itself. It is some comfort to know that the impotency of the Amer ican financial system is at last about to dawn upon the nation, and even to penetrate the dense fog that has so long enveloped the white house. Were it not for the magnitude, the serious ness of the situation, that plaintive cry for help by its blind habitant would be amusing. Oh, Grover, how often these silver cranks have told you so, but you would not heed them. But In the hour of thy distress they will come to thee with silver and greenbacks galore. God moves in a mysterious way na tions are his instruments to work for the good of humanity. Whenever the strument becomes useless it is cast aside. The war cloud may be purposed to serve that mysterious power that moves all nations, all lime to work for the manifest destiny of man, is awak ening the public conscience of this peo ple from the lethargy, the supineness. that so long has held them in the grasp of greed. If so. and the subtle chains of Shylock are broken, who can say that Venezuela has not performed well her allotted part in advancing the tide of humanity to a broader and freer field? Anything that will break the bonds of financial slavery that now holds this country to Europe may be accounted as a divine blessing. Turn on the dogs. Respectfully. E. W. Taylor. In Tacoma (Wash.) Ledger. PRECIOUS METALS IN CHINA. l'urhtiiic l'ower of Silver Han ot le ollned but ioll lfa Appreciated. (Prepared for The American by Col. , E. R. Jefferds. an American Engineer, now in Shanghai.) Gold, in the ; for of money, is never seen j in China, neither are gold ingots in use in trade, but are used for hoard- j ing only. Hoarded gold is generally found In only two forms. One is in i ingots shaped like a boat about 3.6 j inches long, 0.8 inches wide, and weigh- j Ing 11.573 oz. Troy weight; the other j is in the form of gold leaf, measuring J about eight inches square and weigh- ing abou thirty grammes. The relative ( value of gold to silver was in the be- j ginning of the Ming Dynasty (A. D. 1375), one to four; under the Emperor ( Wan Li (1394) of the same dynasty, one to seven; at the end of the Ming Dy- j nasty (1635), one to ten; under the Emperor Kung-hsi (1622) of the pres- ; ent dynasty, one to twelve; under the Emperor Kien-lung (1737), one to twen- ty; in the middle of the reign of Toak- . wane (1840). one to eighteen; at the be- j ginning of the reign of Hun-fung (1850), one to fourteen; in 1882, one to sixteen to eighteen, and at present one to thirty. Gold not being used in China as money but as a commodity, its only value is for hoarding and ornamental purposes, thus the people can readily comprehend that gold has advanced nearly one hundred per cent since 1SS2. One ounce of silver will buy just as much rice, corn, cotton, silk or other commodity, except gold, as ever it would, but gold Is too high for all but the very richest, people to indulge in. Precisely the same conditions, as far as values are . concerned, prevail in the United State, only our neoole have been bulldozed into the belief that all values, except I gold, have gone down, clown, while the j value of gold remains stationary. Mr. R. E. Bredon, commissioner of , customs, in the Decennial reports of the custom house, Shanghl, says: "It j would be impossible in the space at my ! disposal to discuss the Influences which j tell on the movements and value of ; the nrecious metals in China, even if, ' .... M.;ti. nnw tho trndo nf a sinelo : VUllllf) " ill V AAJ .AA, a.a.Uw - O- - i port before me, I am in a position which ; qualities me to do so. I can only say j that, in the general opinion, a tael of j silver buys as much produce as it did j when it had a sterling value." This, 1 ; believe, is a fair general statement. An J intelligent native says that as regards j prices, a man who has an income of j one hundred taels a year, can now buy . a greater quantity of useful articles . than he could with the same money tec yeare ago. The American. The senate Vote for Free Coinage. On Saturday last the senate placed Itself on record as being in favor of the complete restoration of silver to Its former position in the monetary sys tem of the United States. By a vote of 42 to 35 it passed the house bond bill with an amendment providing for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 10 to 1. There were twelve pairs an nounced of which, of course, six were for silver and six against. So the total vote of the senate on the question is 4S to 41. There are at least eight other senators who are decidedly friendly to saver. Their utterances show them to be standing on the border line, as It were, and that their votes are con trolled by other considerations than the real merits of the issue. There are actually not less than fifty-six silver men in the senate today, and if Wall street were to change front on the ques tion, free coinage would have a unani mous vote. A "dead issue" that in the face of the most strenuous efforts of a hostile administration and all the po tential influences that the "money power can uring to near, carries me United States senate by such a major- , ity, is, to say the least, a somewhat anomalous thing. It looks very much as if the goldites may have to "kill" it some more. Ex. i Will Soon lie on the Kun. The bold efforts of the gold press to belittle the Washington convention are highly indicative of the uneasiness in the money centers at the rapid growth of the American bimetallic sentiment that thrives on business failures sad bond issues THE SUNDAY SC11UUD.
