That is to say, they denounce the 50-cent silver dol- lars, hulding that they would of themselves constitute an unsound currency. ‘So also,they denounce as unsound currency greenbacks, silver certificates, national bank notes, and all sorts of national currency except geld and silver. Now who wilt’be the first of the aspirants to the presidency to teil us what sort of currency would satisfy him? What would be a “sound currency”? Would it be @ curreacy based upon: nothing?

In those ante-bellam days are “independent” banks, as they were called, were allowed to issue circulating notes upon specie to the amount oftwo or three dollars of the bank’s notes to every specie dollar it had in its vaults. You don’t believe that anybody favors this sort of currency now? Well, inform yourselves in the premises, and you wili find that the whole question is opened when the affirmation is made that the Nat ional Government must have no.hiug to do with furnishing any other currency than gold and si}ver.

That the ways of women are passing strange was again proved by an in- cident on a Main street car the other evening. A gentleman rose to offer his seat to a lady who had just entered with her little boy. Seeing the seat vacant she sent the boy to occupy it, whiie she clung to a strap. She was evidently very tired and would have enjoyed a seat, but preferred to care for her son first. Presently a lady left the car and the one standing took her seat. Next to her was a serving maid with a pretty baby on her lap. The lady asked permission to hold it, and, the request being granted, she cooed and talked and played with the child for a half hour, utterly ob- livious of her own boy’s jealous cries and frantic efforts to attract atten’: tion.
