A re = --_ WHICH IS RIGHT, < It 18 eaid in the big book that "the love of money 1s the root of all evil ;"' but if the action of the merchants of the blustering capital of Ontario means anything it goes to show that an abundance of Yankee Sil- ver--as they are pleased to term it--is both root snd branches of all evil, past, present ang foture. In order to rid the land of this vil, the merchants there have entered into a solemn league and covenant, to extermi- nate the whole eagle tribe by one fell swoop. Pieces under 25 cents are to be ta. ken only at the rate of 90 cents for a dollar, and pieces of 25 cents and above are to be taken at 96 cents fora dollar, i. e., ten per centis to be deducted from the face of the small coins, and four per cent from the face of the larger ones. This is the last move that hae.been made; how long it may continue is another ques- tion, it will likely outlive three days of grace which brought the former scheme to grief. The former leagues contented themselves with pledges and promises, which, like pie orust has to be broken; but this time the pledge is backed up by a forfeiture of $50 io case any of the legions should bolt. It is a good thing that this suggestion has come from themselves, had any other party even hinted that their solémn promise, backed pp by their signature was not worth $50, they would have created an awful rumpus. "Whatever else this action of tho leaguers 'may do it proves conclusively that the evil, complained of, is more imaginery than real, and that $50 would go a great way, even should 1t be in small " Yankee cuine," in- ssmuch as neither the extent of grievance, drowning the captain and Mr. Chisholm, and came pretty near giving the others a walery grave. composing the 34ih Battalion have com- have d to ther thorough dnll.
