A day or tiro ago a motherly-look ing woman of 45 entered a Wood- yard avenao clothing atore, baring a man’s linen duster ou her arm, and when approached by a salesman sbo said: “Some one in hero sold this duster to iny son yesterday.” “Yes maam, I sold it myself,” re plied tho clerk, as lie looked at the garment. “ Did yon tell my sou that this ,luster could be worn either to a pic nic, funeral, bridul party or quarter ly mooting?" “I did, madam, and ao it can.” “Did_you tall biin it made a good fly-blanket when not otherwise need ed?" 1 did. ‘That it could be usdd os n boat sail, a strotclicr, a straw-bed and bod-spread?" "Yes, ma’am, I did.” "And that many pcoplo used tbom table corers, and that they would last for years and then make excel lent stuff for a rag carpet ?’’ “I did.” “And yon only charged him a dol lar ?" "Only a dollar, ’ni'iira." “Well, when John came homo Inst night and brought tho duster, and told mu nil yon said, I mndo up my mind that lio must lmvc bean drunk, and I was a Icotlo afraid bo atole tbe gnrmcnt. I am glad it’s all right.” It certainly is all right, inn'nin, anil since ho wa* here yesterday wo bavo discovered that tho duster is a grant conductor of sound, a prevent ive of sunstroke, and that no man with one on bis back over dropped dead ot heart dineaso." Land bavo ns,” sho gasped, as she -waited for the bnndlo, “but who knows that they won't tix 'em so 'tore long that they’ll rniiie a mortgngo off the farm?" A preacher not far from Boston ouco found himself in n sad dilerao.— Ha stopped in his sormou and said: “If I speak softly tlioso of you in the rear cannot hear me; if I speak lomt, I shall certainly wake up those who l’^" 1 weighing is done thot they aro close to mo.” A Msino man lies invented n scare crow, to be placed in corn-fields, which oonsists of n box seven feet long and two feet square, with horizontal bar rels arrange 1 inside. The barrels are to be loaded with powder, aud st reg- from the Treasury Department at Washington to superintend the weigh iug of the gold bullion stored at tho assay oflicu in WuU street, preparato ry to its transfer to tho mint at I'bila- ilelphia, aud tho final settlement of tho accounts of the oflicc with the Treasurer for tho fiscal year ending with June 30, arrived last Monday.— Since that day tho work of tho officers and men in tho offico has been moro laborious and responsible than ever before known in tbe history of the of fice. Tho accumulated gold to bo ac counted for to tho last ounce is no less than $66,000,000, for which one man the superintendent, Thomas C. Ac ton—is held responsible. Tho exami ners were It. E. Preston, of tho bu reau of tho mint, Charles J. Tyrol,, of tho First Auditor's office at Washing ton, and Thomas Donaldson, of Phil adelphia. Mr. Preston roturnod to Washington last Thursday, and tho other examiner* will bo joined to morrow probably by tbo Director of tbo Bureau of the Mint, Mr. Bncbard. “Tbo first ibing dono by tbe exam iner*," snid the chief clerk, Mr. J. M. Floyd, to a reporter yesterday, “was taking the iuvoico prepared here showing tho details and nggrognto of tho gold thut wo still have on hand from tho receipts in European and other foreign coin since the last set tlement. The amount is about, $55,- 000,000, tlmngb our receipts during tho period from August 2, 1880, to May 1, 1881, bavo reached about $04,- 000,000. Of this sum $0,400,000 was in our own coin, and this, not need ing to ha melted dow n, did not remain here. The ?S7,000,000 in for coin consisted mainly of French 20- frniic piocea, (Jcrrnan 20-mark pieces, Jnpancso vens and ltussian half-impe rials. Straugo to say, although near ly tho cutiro receipts were on British uceonnt, probably representing foreign transactions made by English mer chants and manufacturers, wo received nut n single British coin.” Mr. Floyd showed the rcjiortor through the melting uml assaying rooms, which aro on tho ground on uither side of the central passago-wny in tho main bnilding beyond tbo court yard. On tbo right, ns ono goes back through tlie ball is tlio largo room in which the gold coin is melted down, mid occupying tho Sonlhoust corner is the impregnable vault, about twon ty feet square, in which the enormous treasure is kept. At the present time tbe manufacturing operations confined to melting silver coins nnd bricks nud fluxiug tbo dirt from for mer meltings to get from it the scraps of precious metal. Until tlio settle ment now reaching tbo linnl summing up is completed, no deposits of coiu will bo received. The weighing is lieing done in the large melting room noar tbe vault, nnd hero weto found yesterday tbo su|H>rintcudent, Mr. Ac ton, the two cxninincre, of whom Mr. Donaldson was managing the scales aud Mr. Tyron noting the results, nud four men, one of them a negro, were haudling the heavy gold. Thu brass scales, which are nbont four feet bigb, were made by Henry Fii'cnmer of Philadelphia, and the weight on either side and at the centre rests up on knife edges of a sharpness that w-ill have worn so much when tho last day of tho fiscal year, which is June 30th. The gold, which is in bars ■lie! about six indies long, an itieh thick I and two ami a halt inches uruic, ia | stored in common open boxes, with appointed | alumt. the rapacity of a hod. Ten will never he used again. The bal- ulur intervals, exploded by menus of nernst which clock work within the bos that tlio ono-hundredth part of an ounco added to either side licars it dowu promptly. Tlio weights used are of a composition of metals looking like brass. They are shaped like largo tomato - eons, with seoopt-d out are straight inin- • h fivi hundred ■ ilea, and tin- bars arc kept in a box, and tbo hand track in which tbo gold is hanlod from tho vault to tho scales will hold twenty boxes. Each bar is worth $5,- 000, each boxful about $50,000, each truck load about $1,000,000. Tbo re porter when shown iuto tbo vault yes terday was surroundad by shelves piled up with gold and silver worth about $00,000,000. “ My goodness gracious 1" exclaim cd an old goullomnn who was present, “I never expected to see so ranch money I I thought I was pretty well off, but my house nnd lot mcltod down wouldn't make ono of tlioso pigmy bars, nud my wholo' country town if put iuto comlensod -form could bo wheeled away in that littlo wngon.— I'm sorry I came here, bccauso it makes mo feel so insignificant. Why, thcro nre only two men in this conn try who wouldn't fcol poor in thi* room, nnd I doubt whotber Vander bilt could buy its contents with overy dollar ho could rake nnd scrape with in twenty days.” Tlio gentleman stnmd at the men as they caroloss|| lifted another mil lion into truck. “Now sc- them 1" be snid; "tlioy would shovel it in like coal if it wnsn’t too lienvy. Sco how hey (icrspiro 1 It isn't often tlint it takes millions of dollars to make a drop of perspirntion start, and yet it takes almost millions nf those very drops to earn a dollar. Jnst estimate, if yon can, the value of a dollar earned by the sweat of ouo's brow! Those men get shout $1 a day, I guess, for being honest with ton millions. But they have nunc ol tbo worry nnd care ot managing this cnormons wealth.— Still, it seems to me that it umst be a risky business to allow Toni, pick and Harry to bnndlo all tbia gold. Wbat’a to prevent ono of them from clipping a bur into bis pocket? I'll oak Mr. Acton about this." Tbo old gentle man followed tho track out to tbo scene of tho woigbing. "Mr. Acton," bo asked, "aro yon nut trembling while this thing is go ing on?" "Why?" tbo superintendent asked. “Because—jnst think liuw ensy it would bo for n bar or even n box to disappear." "Ah, no danger,” waa tho rcapousc. "Don't you sco wo are all hero togeth er—everybody with bis eyes open; they can't lie shut on all tboae mil lions. But tlicro is a better security still—the entire honesty, tried nud tested in every way for days, moiitba ami many years of every man w ho touches nu ounce of gold in tbia place.

Arriving at the ncadomy, bo was escorted to a seat in tho front row, and Professor Sqniba, tho fat and jolly lioad of tbo institu tion, ordered the class in rorisod ge ography to como to tnw. Tho move ment was execacod in fine order, and tho close was ready for business.— Singling out a brigbt-oyed boy, about tbo centro of tbe class, tho Profossor began tbo examination.

In this city evory man lives off bis neighbor except tbo last man, who is supported out of tbe treasury." " There ia only ono company in tbo Gate City—tbe Gnte City Guards.— They tired the first gun in tbo war, went iuto Virginia first and came bauk Inst. Foreigners have pro nounced them tbe old guard of Napo leon in disgniae." " Entirely correct." murmured tbo Profeaaor.
