“THE GOOD TIME."
They have a paper down at Derrstown,
called the Lewisburg Chronicle, which is
addicted to queer freaks, mow ‘and then,
in attempting to enlighten the beui:hted
radicals of Union county. The latest spe.
cimen in this line is an article, erowing
over the "good times" we just now hive
under the rule of its, party. If Bathum
learns of this production, he will be certain
to have it pasied up in his museum, as a
grout freak in our political literature. The
Chronicle rejoiceth thas:
‘Tne Goon Trva.' = Wheat is naw quo-
ted at 21.80 to 31.35, and gold atl about
$1.40. Thus, the great staple; the ‘staff’ of
life," has been brought down to less than
one (gold) dollar per bushel; ard, if no dis-

prices and “good times"

The Advance in'Gold.
Gold is higher and business more de-
pressed in al. the great centres of trade,
commerce and manufactures, than
when General Grant went into office.
Merchants are complaining, mechanics
need employment, mills are stopping,
goods do not sell, money has been at
panic prices and there'is not only no
hope of any immediate improvement,
but a wide spread distrust pervades all
| commercial circles, The future is
| dark and lowering. Capitalists do not
| care to make large ventures, This
| dries up the streams of business enter-
| prise and stops the wheels of trade.
Fhe people were told that the election
of General Grant would be immediate-
ly followed by better times. But Con-
gress has met since that, and nothing
was done to aid the substantia! interests
of the nation. Political schemes were
concocted and personal axes ground to

THE ADVANCE IN GOLD.
From the Pittsburgh Post,
The late rise in gold has occasioned
much speculation as to the cause and
the effects likely to be produced by it
Since paper currency has been the
agent of circulation in this country,
gold has been a commodity whose rel-
ative value to other commodities has
not been left to the adjustment of the
laws of supply and demand, but has
been subjected to the powerful influen.
ces of the national Treasury to cause
its depression, under a mistaken appre-
hension of the consequences. Dy low-
ering the price of that which is the
money of the outside world, importa.
tions have been stimulated to ‘an un-
wonted degree ;—a portion of this
overtreading has also been induced by
unwarrented declarati n made by
Congress at its last session that the
government bonds should be paid in
gold ; this put up the bonds in Europe
where they have been sent and sold to
an immense amount, and by lessening
the demand for gold here contributed
to depress its price,
Notwithstanding these powerful
agencies, the just relations of values
are returning, and gold, as a conse
quence, is rising to its substantial
worth in the commerce of the world,
and takes its place against the ficti
tious prices created by an inflated pa-
per currency and exorbitant duties on
imports. The® dissuse of gold as a
circulating medium has largely dim-
inisned the demand for it, and con
tributed
price. The New York Evening Post
reviews the causes of the advance, and
SAYS :
‘Had any one of these depressing
influences been wanting, the premium
on gold must have been very mucn
higher for the last three vears. Had

Losses in the Recent Battle at Los
Minos— Formal Establishment of a
Republic.
New York, May 20.—A Havanna
letter states that advices from the re:
cent battle gives the losses at one
thousand two hundred Spaniards, and
one thousand Cubans.
Another letter, dated, the 15th,
states that the Republic of Cuba has
been formally established by a Con-
gress held at Gurimano a small town
of the Central department of the
Island, about twenty leagues cast of
Puerto Principe. Cespedes was elec-
ted President of the Republic, and
General Quesada Commander-in Chief
of the forces. Don Francisco V.
Aquilara has been appointed Secretary
of State and War,
Cespedes issued a stirring proclama-
tion on assuming the Presidency, He
says: “In the act of ceginnins the
struggle with the oppressors, Cuba
has assumed the solumn duty to con-
sumate her indepence or perish to the
attempt, and in giving herself a demo-
cratic government, she obligates her-
self to become republican, This double
obligation, contracted in the presence
of free America, before the liberal,
world, and what is more, before our
own conscience, signifies our determi-
nation to be heroic and virtuous. Cu-
bans, on your heroisin I rely for the
consummation of our independence,
and on your virtue count to consoli-
date this republic!”
Quesada closes his proclamation to
the Cuban army thus: “We have to

men, and of children, with the mutila-

An Indian Runner vs. a Veleci-
pede Rider.
Saturday evening a novel race took
placeat the Skating Rink on Tremont
street, between Deerfoot, “the Indian
runner,” and Mr. G. W. Littlefield, a
velocipede expert. The terms of the
race were that Mr. Littlefield, should
propel the bicycle forty six times
round the rink while Deerfoot should
go over the same course thirty-four and
one-half times ; in other words, the ve-
locipede was cx pected to go four miles
while the Indian was running three
miles. The contestants started at the
same moment from opposite sides of
the rink, the bicycle occasionally pas-
sing Deerfoot. On the Indian's twenty
ninth round Mor. Littlefield overtook
him for the sixth time, when Deerfoot
put forth an extra effort and for a
short distance it was a question

bicycle to pass him ; but in a second
the yelocipede appeared in front and
the Indian settled back into his accus-
tomed gait, Mr. Littlefield passed the
Indian again on his thirty-third cir-
cuit, but Deerfoot made his last cir-
cuit as the bicycle was on its forty-sec-
ond, thus beating Mr. Littlefield by
four circuits. The time was very
short, being 14 minutes 58 seconds. —

Wonders of Minute Workmanship.
In the twentieth year of Queen
Elizabeth, a blacksmith, named Mark
Scaliot, made a lock consisting of
eleven pieces of iron, steel, and brass,
all of which, togather with a key to it,
weighed but one grain of gold. He
also made a chain of gold consisting of
forty-three links, and, leaving fastened
this to the before mentioned lock and
key, he put the chain about the neck
of a flea, which drew them all with
ease. All these, together, lock and
key, chain and flea, weighed only one
grain and a half. Oswaldus North-
ingerus, who was more famous even
than Scaliot for his minute contrivan-
ces 1ssaid to have made sixteen hun-
dishes ofivory, all perfect and com-
plete in every part, yet so small, thin,
slender that all of lo were inclu-
ded at once in a cup turned out of a
