A late number of the Financial Times says of the league: At the iresent time, we are informed, it possesses adherents," who support the whole of its views, among the directors of the liauk of England and among those of n-arly every joint stock bank in London, as well as among uifmy of the partners in private banks. Its vice presidents. include some of the most influential persons in the Kingdom, it is strongly represented in parliament, and it possesses a numerous list of guarantors. The league-is, we believe, about to occupy more commodious offices in London,' to extend its branches in the country, and to enter upon a fresh lecturing campaign in London, the provinces and in Ireland and Scotland. One feature of the work of the league is propounding questions to candidates for parliament as to their views on the' money question. Under the Eng lish system a candidate cannot well avoid answering the questions put to him on the hustings, and so his exact position as an indivedual can be ascer tained. In nearly all the bye elections since the last general election the suc cessful candidates have been bimet allists. ly this system the league can force its issue no matter what position the political parties as a whole may take. The interview system is also spreading in England. One of the most interesting ones that has ap peared recently is the following with Albert George Sandeman, the new governor of the Bank of England: "And what is jour view of the com mercial situation, Mr. Sandenutn?'' "Well, I think there's a little revival In trade, but whether it v; ill be per manent is more than I can say. We've got a great deal of leeway to make up in this country." j "And what is the meaning of all this leeway?" Some people," returned the governor of the Bank of England cautiously, "say it is overproduction, some the demonetization of silver, but whether it is one or the other, it is a matter which I do not desire to go into here. Still, I don't mind saying that 1 think it was a great mistake demonetizing silver as occurred in 187- or lbTo, after the Franco-German war. At least the fall in the average prices of commodi ties began then, and has been almost continuous ever since." In both France and Germany, bime tallic leagues were formed some- three months ago, as mentioned in The Sentinel at the time, for work similar to that of the British league. The German league has issued the first number of its organ, the Bimetallische Monatsschrift, and is progressing rapidly with ijs collection of funds and agitation of bimetallic reform. The league has boldly announced its willingness to make German action dependent on British action, as recom mended by the Prussian diet. In France meetings are being held and literature circulated. A notable meeting was recently held at Lille at which the chief manufacturing, agri cultural ami commercial notabilities are reported to have been present to hear an address by M. Edmund Thery, the editor of the Economiste European, on bimetallism. At this meeting reso lutions, were adopted (1) in favor of giving support to the French national bimetallic league, constituted in Paris on March 2.1 this year: r) urging the French government to enter into nego tiations with the governments of Eng: laud, Germany, the United States. Holland and the states of the Latin Union, "or some of them." with a view to an agreement for the restoration of silver to its former function as inter national money: and (u recommend ing the French government, in case of an agreement proving impossible, to appoint a commission to consider what would be the consequences to the economic interests of France of a return by that country to the pure and 'u llru,u - ... i.i tl.-itt nr.vfh nir - vnort, Knijrlitshride, ir- I :uia wouiu ..... - ' " I. 1 . , i,...

Ld. J. rd C. The Nr tfpajxr Priss. Senator David B.Hill has felt the sting of the newspaper press as much, perhaps, as any man in the country; lie has also been the subject of no little praise and adulation from the same source. He knows something of its power and influence of the work it has accomplished and the work it is accomplishing. In a recent address he declared: "It is impossible to overestimate the influence of the press in shaping the policies of a free government like ours. It is indeed the prominent, the con spicuous, controlling feature in Amer ican politics to day, largely overshad owing all other instrumentalities. It lias to some extent superseded the po litical orator, because it speaks con stantly, while he talks only occasion ally. It overmatches our public schools, because they take long vaca tions. It outrivals the pulpit, because it preaches week days as well as Sun days, observing no holidays, and tak ing no European trips. It diminishes the influence of our courts, because it anticipates their decisions usually cor rectly. It towers above congresses and legislatures, because it is not hampered by olTical responsibility, and, with its freedom, guaranteed under our con stitution, it can freely recommend, criticise and condemn with absolute fearlessness and independence, with no veto or power to intimidate or revise its action except the force of an en lightened public opinion, which is al ways supreme. Presidents and Gover nors are not beyond the reach of its shafts and it enters alike the palaces of the rich and the cottages of the poor. It is the terror of wrongdoers, the de fender of liberty and the champion of popular right. Better than large armies and powerful navies is the strong support of an honest, able and incorruptible press in any struggle which may come with foreign, foes or for the preservation of our free insti tutions. If our quarrel be just if our cause be right influence of the press can make it better and stronger and irresistible, and then we can truthfully say as the elder Adams said of the struggle of the colonies: 'We shall not fail. The cause will raise up armies; the cause will create navies " Knoxville Tribune. If you wish one of the Henry Weid ner Memorial phamplets call at this ofliee. Price 10 cents per copy. Ex-Secretary Whitney, who Had just returned from Europe, when this bela ted squib was written, brought this im portant testimony: "The feeling in En gland is strong in favor of bimetallism stronger, I fancy, than in this coun try. Every college professor and Board of Trade, and many conserva tive statesmen like Balfour, have de clared in its favor. Labor organizations too, all over England have adopted resolutions calling for bimetallism. Ex-Manager Lidderdale of the Bank of England, who stood at the helm during the financial troudle incident to the Baring failure, dined with me, and expressed himself as being a now pronounced bimetallist," When the best people in England are thus friend ly to the white metal, i is high time for us over here to cease coddling gold monometallism.

"What is a Mu-wuuipf' A Mug wump is a sort of political hermaphro dite. He is neither a Democrat, Repub lican. Populist nor Prohibitionist, though he may claim to be one r e other. He regards himself r (V and jrood and pure and i teinvdiit belon- to or afliliate WV for i. y tfreat ?tb or time. He pre fers a iarty h'f ,.,.or,r leader at leust adopt his own peco- liar views regardless of the -otitiion of others who may be members of the party. He has great contempt for partisanship, but is a imst rabid par tisan liiitist-lf, no matter what side or faction he may teuiporarily.es louse. He is in politic something like those critical patriots who refused to fight on either side during the war, who swore first at one army and then at the other, in the meantime feather ing their own nests whenever and wherever opportunity offered. There are few things except himself and his own peculiar views the Mugwump is not disposed to criticise. As a rule he has little practical knowledge of the science of politics, but is as full of views ana theories as an egg is of egg. He is disposed to assert superior claims to honesty over reliable party mem bers, but if he has a monopoly on po litical honesty the country has never discovered it. Why Not You?

To the Htlitor of The He raid: Dear Sir: Please allow me space in your valuable paper to say a word to the friends and patrons of the North Carolina School for the Deaf and Dumb. The Xorth Carolina School for the Deaf and Dumb closed its first annual session June 12th, after a session of nine months. I wish to thank the people of Morganton and community, and in deed the people of State for their cor dial support. "AVe labored under many disadvantges, but the cordial interest taken by the people at large went a long way toward making our school a success. The railroads have been kind and generous to our children, giving such liberal rates, as to enable many to enter who would otherwise have been denied the advantages of the school. Many newspapers of the State have donated their papers for the benefit of the children, and have kindly assisted in giving information to the public at large. Our next session will open in Sep tember, and we expect to be prepared to accomommodate two hundred or more. All applications should be made to the Superintendent, and preference will always be given to those over twelve years of ae. Thanking all friends lor their interest in behalf of the deaf, I am sincerely, E. McK. Goodwix, Superintendent. School for the Deaf and Dumb. June 19th, 18!5. Help the Library! To help the Library, I propose as follow: Whenever a gentleman be longing to the Library Association, has his hair cut at my place and pays twenty-five cents, I will give him" a ticket showing that I will pay the As sociation five cents, which he can hand to the Treasurer. At the end of the month the Treasurer can get the tick ets cashed by me. ThisofTerto be good for three months. 14-tf H. C. Dkxxy. Barber. A Very Good 5how inz.

At the same time he sent a cablegram to London and the answer came at 2 o'ciock. Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach-the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of -the mucous li nings of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inllama tion can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hear ing will be destroyed forever; nine ca ses out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed con dition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circu lars, tree. F. J. Chkxxy S: Co..
