Pennsyl- vania ranks in importance as the sec- ond State in the Union. Her manu- facturing and mining industries have suffered severely by legislative tamper- ing with the eurrency, and her ( voice upon the financial question will exert a powerful influence}, in the October election in Ohio. It will be useless fori tlie State Convention which meets in' Syracuse to-day. to adopt a hard-money platform, and ignore or repudiate the' action cjf t h d Ohio and Pennsylvania democracy. If they; anticipate any show of success for the candidate of their choice in the democratic national convention next year,, ft will be neces- sary for them to trimi their sails and catch the breeze that sweeps over Ohio and Pennsylvania.or drop their "Third Term'£opposItion,and:avail themselves of "the^'emergency'' clause in Presi- dent Grants'letter to'the chirmanof the Pennsylvania Republican State Convention. Parties must square themselves upon the financial issue, and the' platforms adopted by the Ohio and Pennsylvania democracy in their state Conventions foreshadow tlie policy of the democratic party in the future, and fix, beyond doubt", its status in thle national convention of 1870.

The Ways coitlQ render no as- sistance whatever in'|he terrible sea that was running, and the entire crew of'the Equinox went down. The Equi- nox was owned.'by tho Grand Trunk and Sarnia line. The vessel is very old and rated very law in point of safety. I n 1873 t h e j company over- hauled her and i?ut work on her to^the amount of about $lS,000. She was val- ued at from $26,000 to $30,000. Insur- ance, if any, is not known". Besides the barge's cargo of salt, nearly 0,000 barrels, there was a deck load of lurn- ber, more than she was capable of car- rying. »Her . engineer, Preston, had protested against overloading, but was induced to go with the vessel, in spitte of his conviction that she was unsafe. The cargo is valued at $8,000, and i Tender Act." To support that infamy, It packed the Supreme Court. To the arguments of loyal democrats that the measure Was unconstitutional, unwise and unnecessary, it replied by stigmar tizhig t$em as rebels and traitors. It was a war jhieaisuft! and the only way to save tl{e Uiiii'on.'' ' Tho laws of llinanco are absolute and of universal application; they operate, irresistably anul without interruption; they are the same in peace and in war; the various tribes in human affairs serve in no way to modify or repeal them. , They declare flhat all trade is but an exchange of val ues as between twQ,parties. If value is given where nohe is recoived, then; the conditions of legitimate trade are! gone. Every year^we compel! the Ohio farmers and Pennsylvania coal- miners to give us wheat and. coal fox which nothing is paid, To besuire, we give them green- backs, but these are only unfulfilled promises to pay, and have neither util- ity norvalue. The farrrfersahd'miners findTthemselvesi getting poorer, and at- tribute their Impoverishment to a lack of money. , If we pour a thousand barrels of water into a reservoir with a hole in it,, and find it empty after ali, this result is to be attributed to a want of water. If wie have seven hundred millions of cuirrency and still find money Jiard to get, this closeness re- sults from- a scarceness of money. The trouble isj a n inconvertible currency changes business to gambling, and the farmers and miners have been over- reached by the more skillful with the cards. ..Bullion is the only money which the laws of trade peirmifc; and, though for the sake of convenience, we may use' paper, yet the paper is only a certifif catethatan equal amount of gold is. deposited somewhere, by which de- posit it is to be redeemed. This is the; only paper that"' redeems itself every, time a payment is made." Operating as it must our currency system is rap- idly •impoverishing- the country. Wq are drifting into that state of affairs where there is mo hope but despair," and from which there Is no escape but death. As a result of. this the body politic has been permeated with fiscal errors. Forthis we have.to thank the republican party,, The prospect before us is gloomy enoiugh. The members of t h e Erie Conven- tion are not democrats in any sense of the word. Their platform is a con- tradiction of the cardinal principles of democratic faith. In view of this it behooves the trine supporters of tho good old doctrines of Hard Money Free Trade and Home Rule, to rouse themselves and act with a vigor wor^ thy of the exigencies of the hour. The conventions of the twenty-six hard •money States must inform these infla-, tionists in clear and precise language, that they will not! be permitted to de- stroy the liberties of the country.

Penn- sylvania democracy, aeldin Erie, in that State, on the; SSta Inst., has ex- pressed itself emphatically, upon the financial problem, and taken i® sjtand with Ohio and the western wing of the party upon that issuel The action of this convention has blasted thfe hopes of the hard-money democrats of New York, srho have expected. |o convey Governor Tilden to the Presidential chair in a golden chariot, merely stop- ping long enough to psb-ta'ke Of refresh- ments at the National Con^enjtion "to be held In. 187G.

J The Erie Convention is a thing of the past. It has repeated the folly of that of Columbus. The inflationists have triumphed in the Keystone State. These endorsements of the inflation heresy are not due to the fact that the issue is "sprung" upon conventions— they arise from a firm conviction in the truth of tho'doctrine. Hence they are to bo lamented. Destroyed by a vicious system of finance, the class most severely effected by it, demands its continuance. This Is but another proof of the old proverb that history repeats itself. 'The power inherent in any commo- dity to cater to our tastes or adminis- ter to our necessities constitutes its utility. If its production requires no .human labor, it is simply useful and nothing more. Like the air, no one will pay anything for it; but if it is the -product of'labor, it has purchasing power, and will bring other commodi- ties. 'Xn t h e natural order of things, exchanges of goods are essential to the well-being of society, one article is given for another. But for this pur- pose, it is needful to have some com- mon measure of value by which to de- termine how much each is worth svith reference to the other. Such is money. Money is a commodity, which does at all times cater to our tas.tes and administer to our necessities ; it is use- ful, it is more, it is valuable. ' There is always some one who w.ants It, and , there is no one who does not want it Gold is the only commodity that has thus far been fotnd to answer the pur- pose. It has been universally adopted. What the. farmers of Ohio and: the miners of Pennsylvania want is^food and clothing. Would aii increase of gold supply this? By po means; much less a fresh issue of greenbacks. Nothing but production will satisfy their wants. Taking a yard-stick, I find that a piece of cloth measures five yards of standard width. If I reduce the length of my measure by one-half thero will be ten yards; if I double the length of my measure there will be two afid a half yards. Do these variations in the length of the yard effect in any way the quantity of the cloth ? Does it not remain.the same notwithstand- ing the various markings of tlie stick ? Will a fresh issue of greenbacks make Ohio wheat buy more cloth in the eastern markets, Or Pennsylvania coal purchase any more food ffpr the men in the mines ? Certainly not. The Erie Convention, then, has sought deliver- ance where it cannot be found. From the constitution of human na- ture, it was to be expected that when ia fiscal policy so far reaching and last- ing in its influence, Was adopted, the people who w^re ignorant of its true character, should persistently refuse to reject it. The 3 farmers of Ohio, per- ceiving that it is difficult for them to obtain money, imagine that it is be- cause of its scarcity. The truth is its scarcity aWs0B from' its superabund- ance. For this condition of affairs the re- publican party is alone responsible. It was the author of the "Legal The Democratic State Convention. [From tho Syracuse Courier, Sept,, 15.] The Democratic State Convention which assembles in> this eity to-mor- row will be composed of three dele- gates from each Assembly district in the State, or a total of three hundred and eighty-four delegates. From the partial list already 'obtained it is evi- dent that the Convention will embrace truly represehtatiTe men of the party, men of arumjetpr jn-rid infliitmee. As early as yesterday noon the dele- gates to the Democratic State conven- tion, which meets' in this city to-mor- row, began to andve. Last evening the trains from New York brought in large additions, and the hotels were more than comfortably filled. The Hon.- John Morrissey, who comes to the convention claiming to be the regular delegate from the Elev- enth dstriet of New York, took up his quarters at the Vaiaderbilt House, and soon was the observed of all observers. Mr. Morrissey'impressed it upon our reporter that his delegation Was the on- ly regular onefrona' the Eleventh dis- trict. He claims that they were elect- ed by the regular eonventions, called by the Assembly district committees, and claims thattke convention can- not do otherwise than admit him. That remains, however, for tho com- mittee on contested seats to decide. Mr. Morrissey Is quite confidetft that an inflation plank will or ought to be inserted in the platform. H e i s a red-hot inflationist himself, and de- clares that that doctrine is destined to sweep the country like a whirlwind. The Convention will be called to or- der in the' Wiettng; Opera House, at 12 o'clock, noon, by Hon.. Allen C. Beach, Chairman of the State Central Com- mittee, who will nominate the tempo- rary Chairman olf t h e Convention. Theflrat day will doubtless be con- sumed in disposing of the contested seats eases, and effecting a permanent organization. Business will com- mence in earnest, we presume, on. the second day. 1 " mtMAMJ;Sl|lllKEY BANISHED. The Cuban Atitfaoriitles Ridding Them- selves or* Wbite Elephant. The fugitivt jnurderer, William J. Sharkey, has t been banished from Cuba! and was placed on board the Spanish steamer Marsella under a guard, with strict orders for the Cap- tain to land h i m i n San Domingo. Previous to Sfuirtoey's departure he was confined lit tthe common jail, where he was placed when he was taken from the police headquarters, at which place he wiaa confined, at the instance of Detective Davis, who came here in March'last from the United States. Davis expected at that time to take Sharkey-back to New York, but through the interference of the-Span- ish Minister to the United States, as also of Sharkey's friends here, he was compelled to abandon his purpose. Sharkey is down-hearted at this cha'nge of affairs, for he no doubt sees an early termination of his career. At Havana the offleials have no doubt cometo the conclusion that he is a white elephant on their hands, which accounts for his being sent away, Yet there is a rumor that his trip to San Pomingp is thefirststep taken- for his extradition to the Uni- ted States. i A YOUNOSTEB being required to write a composition upon some por- tion of the human body selected that which unites the head to the body, and expounded as.follows: "A throat is convenient to have, especially to roosters and ministers. The former eats corn and crows with i^: the latter preaches tnroUgb. his'n, an4 then ties it up. This is pretty much all I can think of about necks." j—• *»' ; " ' ' — SINCE }824 New England has-re- ceived from the jjewerali government for improvement of its rivers and. har- bors the sum of $6,375,488; the^Ciddle States $11,758,915 ; the Southern States $6,400,833; Indiana, Illinois andiOhio, $4,550,610; Missouri, Iowa and'Min- nesota, $675,300? »«CMichigan- and Wisconsin $8,799,'tf<}. ; An lutercstliiif DlNcourae with a Skele- ton Uaugrer., [From tlie PhUndelpUIa Times.] "Everything nowadays," said Mr. Nash, as he ceased blowing through a flexible pipe of gutta percha into what looked to a newspaper main* who yes- terday interviewed him, like a barrel that had beofw t^visted out of shape, "everything nowadays is an article of commerce. [Mr.'Naeh is the anato- mist of tho medical department of the University of Pennsylvania.] Yes, sir," he continued, "everything in this world seems to be business. Buy- ing a coffin is business ; chartering a steamboat for a pleasure" excursion is business, and buying a dead elephant Is also business. This (pointing to the twisted, barrel shaped ,aftair that "he was inflating so that it could be dried) is the stomach of the Fairmount Park Menagerie elephant Empress. I t -is the first one that, was ever dissected. Prof. Chapman set his heart on having it, and here it is. Everybody supposed that all ruminative animals had four stomachs, like the cow, the camel, and the llama. Our friend, the ele- phant, for the first time in the history of the science of comparative anatomy, <fcc, we find has but one, Look here," said Mr. Nash, exhibiting to us tho dried stomach of a llama that also had died at the Zoo; "see, here aro four stomachs in one, and water cells, in Which the gentle little creatures could carry a supply of water sufficient to last them for two weeks." The pre- parations anatomically considered are very beautiful; the skin is almost transparent—entirely translucent. To the cause of science the possession of the defunct body of the elephant, in question by the University is of great value. The membrane enveloping the viscera is as large as nn old-fashioned counterpane, is preserved unbroken, and is almost as dainty and delicate-as Mechlin lace. "You had a dead zebra also for dissection, Mr. Nash?" inter- rogated the writer. "I had to send him back to the Zoo," was the reply. "Thero is no place here in which to deppsit the refuse after dissection, and at this season of the year I do as little in that way as., I can. Here's a pec- cary (South American'wild pig) that I am mounting, and'hore " turning to a recess in the corner, "is a skeleton of one of the biggest bats that the world produces.-- Oddly enough, in no exhi- bition of comparative anatomy were the skeletons of either of these species exhibited before." " You remarked, Mr. Nash," ob- served the Times'inquirer after knowl- edge, ''tbjat everything was an article of commerce. Will you kindly indi- cate the force of that remark ?" THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN AND TERRAPINS. '' Most certainly. The dead body of the elephant Empress had a money value, and so also (pointing to a hu- man skeleton elaborately sand-jpa- pered, varnished and wired with brass) has that. The difference between men and terrapins is that tho former carry their skeletons inside of them, while the terrapin carries his skeleton on his outside. This is true of all the genus testudo, and of many of the Crus- tacea also. The crab sheds his skele- ton. I've seen days here within two weeks," said Mr. Nash, as he wiped his face with a spotty silk handker- chief, "when I'd have been right glad to shed my flesh and to do my -work sitting i n m y skeleton alone. Things are a little dull now, Mr. Times, but two years ago I had more orders for skeletons than I could All. You see there are numerous secrob societies that require a skeleton as a part of their paraphernalia. I dpri't propose to name them, because I belong to nearly all of them; but they could no more initiate a novice into their or- f anization without these emblems of uman mortality than Cardinal Mc- Closkey could many a couple without a ring. Just now times aie rather dull; very few new lodges are being Jformed. Working people in the coun- try havou'fcmeans to form new lodges; and that gentleman (pointing to a skeleton hanging very comfortably by his lefrear i n a neat closet, otherwise full of glass jars) .won't go to Carbon county as soon as. I expected. I fixed tim and wired him beautifully, as you see. His price was but?35, though, in a general retail way, he is worth $50 ; the consequenco is that, for tho pre- sent, he will hang just where he is." THE UTILITY AND THE COST OP SKELE- TONS. "Outside of the purposes of secret societies, sir, who want these emblems to remind raau that this sublunary world is but a "fleeting show, of what value are these osseous remains?" " Why, country doctors generally like to keep a skeleton somewhere i n a dark closet," was the reply, "where they keep their demijohn of apple- jack or old rye, Their wives, daugh- ters, or servants are sure never to visit it. If they take students they must have a skull, anyhow. No drawing or picture can. teach or give an ader quate idea of the anatomy of the head, and a back-country doetor pretty y gen- almost calcareous, .indjthe carcase w m thfe Way df all ii eh 4esh. Bone," continued Mr. Nash, "is, curious; a queer thing indeed, I I may say, is bone. When I began tpis business thiey used to say that the skeleton of a (dropsical person wks the best for preservation,} beoausejhe bones mace- rated in the water. But Qiat isn't so. I had a lo\*er jaw- tidne from -which this teeth lt«d been removed, and it made' the neatest inkstanjd you ever saw. I got the dental process lined with metal, set it updii brass feet, and the upper part of'the jjiw njade just as pretty a place to rest & pen holder in as everiyou saw. A half dozen of doctors wanted it,. but before j ', could decide to which to consign it, j somebody' stale it. ' A BABOON AS OLD l) i'i'HBR TIME. 'i'Here's something interesting," said Mr. Nash, as he pointed to the skeleton of a big dog-faced baboon. "This fellow," said He, ^was brought to me by Major IngalJB, vciryiil with pulmonary consumpt on. He took his; cod-liver oil from rje, and his or- ange afterward, with ill tlie submis- sion of a child. I didn 't expect to cure him,! for his left lung v as gone. Why, sirj these monkeys Bare consumption just as we <fo. only;, .•flhat is worse in them, it is. contagious^' Tile skeleton of this monkey was mounted in an erect, posture. A pail: of 'spectacles were upon his nose, a n d h e was lean- ing upon a scythe made to suit his size. A miniature hdur-gliss in his hand, made him a fair representative of Father Time. "A, riian Who kept a •barroom near the college"! [then at Ninth and Chestnut streets] t 'said Mr. Nash, "asked me. to lend him that skeleton as a curiosity} and I did so. He Tvas^puzzled when that day. in con- stant* succession, people who first called for hard drink immediately changed their order to cides or porter sangareo.

The 1 de- tective entered a ndtorio isdenin Troy and there discovered tlie girl. The Press recounts the particulars: "When slie learned that Maloney was an officer, she burst into tears, ttnd asked him to take her away.

She was for a cjouple of years employed as a clerk In her- father's store, in Rochester. Afterward she was employed by oneBoBenthqll, who keeps a clothing store on Mill street in the Flour City, and by i him she says she was seduced. Last week she left the home of her fathe* (and -went to DeWitt, near Syracuse) ;bn a nrisit to some'friends. She remained there untirtbo third of the present ljnontb, when she came to Troy .for the pur- pose of collecting $16 owed her [by one Levi,! for Whom, befere she came to Troy, she had worked as tailo!ress in Rochester. After her I'arrival she searched for Levi, but could not find him. ! She was promised iplenty of re- munerative employment by a chttnier, ana decided to make herself a resident of this city. At evening Ishe was ae-- costed on Fulton street by a sprange man, who walked with h e r u p t o t h e Tremont House. She rang the bell and the stranger asked her to pay for a room for both.

He is looked upon a|s a Wizard by lus peo- ple, who believe him toj poss sss extrai- ordinary powers; They all : "ear him.

"To-lodges I fur- nish them for $35 each, They are not handled there, and are almost imper- ishable. For doctors the articulations require to be strongly wired, and §50 is what r get for one. Skulls a r e of more comparative value in .proportion than the rest of the anatomy," said Mr. Nash. "I've often had bodies with no skulls to match them, I have furnished skulls and crossed bones to religious recluses, male and female, who wanted nothing else. There arq societies, too, who buy skulls, and I've sent them to such far and near. I had; the body of the murderer Teufel, who was hanged at Norristown some years ago. A physician got his head. I mounted the frame, screwed the head of a negro upon it, and sold i t to a" back-country lodge of Knights of Py- thias." "What became of the negro's- body?" "Oh, noboc'y cares: that kind of material is abundant. By the law of the Commonwealth the remains of all who die in it unclaimed are handed over to the colleges to promote the interests of science." i "How about tho skeletons of infants, Mr, Nash?" asked the reporter "You have them in the museum ofyour uni- .versary. How is it that preparation.3 so delicate can be dissected ?" "They all come from Franco," said Mr. Nash. "4J1 that sort of, things are produced abroad. They are lieees- sary for rls to have, but not an anato- mist would be encouraged by any col- lege in this country to prepare them. Skeletons of birds and small animals aro prepared in the same way. No human hand, even if working under a microscope, could do it half so well. The bird, or whatever it may be, is sprinkled with sugar and placed near by ant hill.

TIIE EKEE FOLLY. fFrom the Canton Lively Times. J

T h e Er ie Convention is a t h i n g of the past. I t has repeated the folly of tha t of Columbus. The inflationists have t r iumphed in the Keystone State. These endorsements of the inflation heresy are not due to t h e fact tha t the issue is " s p r u n g " upon conventions— they arise from a firm conviction in the t r u t h of tho'doctrine. Hence t hey are to bo lamented. Destroyed by a vicious system of finance, the class most severely effected by it, demands its continuance. This Is but another proof of the old proverb t ha t history repeats itself.

' The power inherent in a n y commo­di ty to cater to our tastes or adminis­ter to our necessities constitutes its util i ty. I f its production requires no .human labor, i t is s imply useful and nothing more. Like the air, no one will pay anything for it; but if it is the -product o f ' l a b o r , i t h a s p u r c h a s i n g power , a n d w i l l br ing o ther c o m m o d i ­t ies . 'Xn t h e natural order o f t h i n g s , exchanges of goods are essential to the well-being of society, one article is given for another . Bu t for this pur­pose, it is needful to have some com­mon measure of value by which to de­termine how much each is wor th

svith reference to the other. Such is money. Money is a commodity, which does a t all t imes cater to our tas.tes a n d administer to our necessities ; it is use­ful, i t is more, i t is valuable. ' There is always some one who w.ants It, and , there is no one who does not want it Gold is the only commodity tha t has thus far been fo tnd to answer the pur­pose. I t has been universally adopted.

What the. farmers of Ohio and: the miners of Pennsylvania w a n t is^food and clothing. Would a i i increase of gold supply t h i s ? By po m e a n s ; much less a fresh issue of greenbacks. Noth ing but production will satisfy their wants . Tak ing a yard-stick, I find tha t a piece of cloth measures five yards of standard width . I f I reduce the length of m y measure by one-half thero will be ten ya rds ; if I double the length of m y measure there will be two afid a half yards. Do these variat ions in t h e length of the yard effect in a n y way the quant i ty of the cloth ? Does i t not remain. the same notwithstand­ing the various mark ings of tlie stick ? Wil l a fresh issue of greenbacks make Ohio wheat buy more cloth in the eastern markets , Or Pennsylvania coal purchase a n y more food ffpr the men in the mines ? Certainly not. The Er ie Convention, then , has sought deliver­ance where it cannot be found.

F r o m t h e constitution of h u m a n na­ture, it was to be expected tha t when ia fiscal policy so far reaching and last­ing in its influence, Was adopted, the people who w^re ignorant of its t rue character, should persistently refuse to reject it. The3 farmers of Ohio, per­ceiving tha t i t is difficult for them to obtain money, imagine that i t is be­cause of its scarcity. T h e t ru th is i ts scarcity aWs0B from' its superabund­ance.

For this condition of affairs the re­publican party is alone responsible. I t was the au thor of t h e "Legal

The Democratic State Convention. [From tho Syracuse Courier, Sept,, 15.]

The Democratic S ta te Convention which assembles in> th is eity to-mor­row will be composed of th ree dele­gates from each Assembly district in the State, or a total of three hundred and eighty-four delegates. F r o m the partial list already 'obtained i t is evi­dent tha t the Convention will embrace t ru ly represehtatiTe men of the par ty , men of arumjetpr jn-rid infliitmee.

As early as yesterday noon t h e dele­gates to t h e Democratic State conven­tion, which meets' in th i s city to-mor­row, began to andve. Las t evening the t rains from N e w York brought in large additions, and the hotels were more t h a n comfortably filled.

The Hon.- J o h n Morrissey, w h o comes to the convention claiming to be the regular delegate from t h e Elev­en th dstriet of N e w York, took up h i s quarters a t the Vaiaderbilt House, and soon was the observed of all observers. Mr. Morrissey'impressed i t upon our reporter tha t h is delegation Was the on­ly regular onefrona' t h e E leven th dis­trict . H e claims t h a t they were elect­ed b y t h e regular eonventions, called by the Assembly district committees, and claims t h a t t k e convention can­no t do otherwise t h a n admi t h im. That remains, however, for tho com­mittee on contested seats to decide.

Mr. Morrissey Is quite confidetft t h a t an inflation p lank wil l or ought to be inserted in the platform. H e is a red-hot inflationist himself, a n d de­clares t ha t tha t doctrine is destined to sweep the country like a whirlwind.

Sha rkey is down-hearted a t th i s cha'nge of affairs, for h e no doubt sees an early termination of his career.

At Havana the offleials have no doubt cometo the conclusion that he is a whi te e lephant on their hands , which accounts for his being sent away, Yet the re is a rumor t h a t h i s trip to San Pomingp is the first step taken- for his extradit ion to t h e Un i ­ted States.

[ F r o m t l i e PhUndelpUIa T i m e s . ] " E v e r y t h i n g nowadays ," said Mr.

Nash, as he ceased blowing through a flexible pipe of gut ta percha into what looked to a newspaper main* who yes­terday interviewed him, like a barrel t ha t had beofw t^visted out of shape, "every th ing nowadays is an article of commerce. [Mr. 'Naeh is the anato­mist of tho medical depar tment of t h e Universi ty of Pennsylvania . ] Yes, s i r ," h e continued, "every th ing i n this world seems to be business. Buy­ing a coffin is business; char ter ing a steamboat for a pleasure" excursion is business, and buying a dead e lephant Is also business. Th i s (pointing t o the twisted, barrel shaped ,aftair t h a t "he was inflating so t h a t i t could be dried) is t h e s tomach of t h e F a i r m o u n t P a r k Menagerie e lephant Empress . I t -is the first one tha t , was ever dissected. Prof. Chapman set h is hear t on hav ing it, and here i t i s . Everybody supposed tha t all ruminat ive animals had four s tomachs, l ike t h e cow, the camel, and the l lama. Our friend, the ele­phan t , for t h e first t ime in the his tory of the science of comparative anatomy, <fcc, we find has b u t one, Look he re , " said Mr. Nash , exhib i t ing to us tho dried stomach of a l lama t ha t also h a d died a t the Z o o ; "see, here aro four stomachs in one, a n d water cells, in Which the gentle little creatures could carry a supply of water sufficient to last t h e m for two weeks ." T h e pre­parat ions anatomically considered are very beautiful; t h e sk in is almost transparent—entirely translucent . To t h e cause of science the possession of the defunct body of t h e elephant, i n question by the Universi ty is of great value. The membrane enveloping t h e viscera is as large as n n old-fashioned counterpane, is preserved unbroken , and is almost as da in ty a n d delicate-as Mechlin lace. " Y o u h a d a dead zebra also for dissection, Mr . N a s h ? " in te r ­rogated the writer . " I had to send h i m back to the Zoo," was the reply. "Thero is no place here i n wh ich to deppsit t he refuse after dissection, and a t t h i s season of the year I do as l i t t le in t ha t way as., I can. Here ' s a pec­cary (South American 'wi ld pig) t ha t I a m mount ing , and 'hore " tu rn ing to a recess in t h e corner, " i s a skeleton of one of the biggest bats t h a t t h e world produces.-- Oddly enough, in n o exhi­bition of comparative ana tomy were t h e skeletons of ei ther of these species exhibited before."

" You remarked, Mr. N a s h , " ob­served t h e Times' inquirer after knowl­edge, ''tbjat everyth ing was an article of commerce. W i l l you k ind ly indi­cate t h e force of t h a t remark ? " THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MEN AND

TERRAPINS. ' ' Most certainly. T h e dead body of

the e lephant Empress had a money value, and so also (point ing to a hu ­m a n skeleton elaborately sand-jpa-pered, varnished and wired w i th brass) has tha t . T h e difference between men and terrapins is that tho former carry their skeletons inside of them, while the terrapin carries h i s skeleton on h i s outside. This is t rue of all the genus testudo, and of m a n y of the Crus­tacea also. T h e crab sheds h i s skele­ton.

Things are a li t t le dull now, Mr. Times, but two years ago I had more orders for skeletons t h a n I could All. You see there are numerous secrob societies t ha t require a skeleton as a pa r t of the i r paraphernal ia .

will sometiines exhibi t th is skeleton. Besides th i s , n o doctor's house in which a skeleton was known to be kept was ever broken into. It comes cheaper than keeping bulldogs, and makes a m a n a reputat ion besides."

"Arid t h e cost of a skeleton is how much, Mr. N a s h ? " "To-lodges I fur­n i sh t h e m for $35 each, They are n o t handled there, and are almost imper­ishable. For doctors the articulations require to be s trongly wired, and §50 is w h a t r get for one. Skul ls a re of more comparative value in .proportion than t h e rest of t h e ana tomy," said Mr. Nash. "I've often had bodies with no skulls to match them, I have furnished skulls and crossed bones to religious recluses, male and female, w h o wanted no th ing else. There arq societies, too, who buy skulls, and I 've sent t hem to such far and near. I had; the body of the murderer Teufel, who was hanged at Norristown some years ago. A physician got h i s head.

H o w is i t t h a t preparation.3 so delicate can be dissected ?"

"They all come from Franco," said Mr. Nash. "4J1 that sort of, things are produced abroad. T h e y are lieees-sary for rls to have, but no t an anato­mis t would be encouraged by a n y col­lege in this country to prepare them. Skeletons of birds and small animals aro prepared in the same way. N o h u m a n hand, even if work ing under a microscope, could do i t half so well.
