Some por and the national bonds refund© t, ye n this age all corporate If not national debts are practically perpetual. The greater portion of tho government debt when incurred was mads payable in lawful money, yot in March, 1809, tho bondholders secured the passage of an act of congress entitled “An act to strengthen the public credit,” contr.imug a pledge to pay in coin or its equivalent not merely tho interest but the principal of all national obligations not especially provided to be paid otherwise. And again In 1870, whfiijjcongrcsa was about to pro¬ vide for the refunding, these clamorous creditors, not satisfied with having pur¬ chased the bonds at from forty to seventy five cents on the dollar, and not satisfied with the advantage already gained of having a bond, which was originally mads payable in lawful money, mads payable in ooin. a pledge made long aftar ths contract was made, turds ted that the new bonds bo not only mads payable in coin, but insisted that the vary standard of that coin should be fixed In ths bond.

UlprclaJ lAwrespondroce-J ■ The Working Womon’a society, of 27 of New _ xork ,, CUnton . place, is one s unique organizations of women. Though bearing an uncomproumiitK title, its membership is not limited to those who come ordinarily under the head of work ing women. On the society’, roll the ■*»« a—, -m r . *--»*«. doc*ton*. l»wy©ro, prof*%• writ^n and rich men’s wives or widows stand on a footing of perfect eijuality. On the list of its charter ntemlwrHaro the names of Gabrielle Greeley, daughter of Hor¬ ace Groeloy; Mr*. Josephine Hhaw 1-ow ell, Florence Kelley Wbchnewetsky, a writer on socialistic subject*, and Miss Arms ilunlingtou, daughter of Bishop Hunttugton, of Syracuse. But in spite of the somewhat incon¬ gruous mixture of its membership, the society hoe does good work in the field 'AWlaAv 1 . **»«*>U*.ir by iwtterma ths conditions of working women through agitation, organisation and legislation. Conditions in factories have been ameliorated through the pannage of an act of the legislature providing for women factory inspectors. Many re¬ forms have I>een brought about in the treatment of saleswomen and cash girht through the society’s investigation of their condition sud the effort to have the factory inspection laws extended to mercantile establishments. The society’s moet unique effort, how¬ ever, is the c ue uj>on which it is at pres¬ ent concent rating its attentions ~a» at¬ tempt to persuade the state to provide an UT. uity for old working women. MAlice L. Woodbridge, the so¬ ciety’s secretary, is busy gatliering h - tistics concerning the condition of mid¬ dle aged working women in New York city and state, and the amount which is expended by the state for the sup|iort of women over forty-five in charitable ami penal institutions. “When these facts are all in shape to clinch tho argument,” said Miss Vi io<i bndgw the otlier day, "the Wotking Women’s society will present for the eoiiHiderati<ni of the legislature a bill which will provide for setting spirt a certain portion of the state revenues ns a fund to secure annuities to women who have reached thu age of forty-five. I'eoplu have no idea of the immensity of the sum expended each year in charity to women who, through inability to find work, have been obliged to ask admis¬ sion to charitable institutions.

Seventy-five per cent, of the women in pnaona are there for crimes with which poverty or ill health has hail much to do. Ninety per cent, of the women it imam- asylum* have been domestic serv ants, and these as a class are about ths thrifUeat of workers. “The utter hopelessness of ths condt tion which faces these women when they have reached middle age sn<l are otill dejiendent on their own resources drives man: of them into crime or in sanity, and in either case the state has to provide tor their physical want* for the rest of their liven.
