Allied Currency Preferred. London, April 20.—Toe City Elitor of the Times writes that the German consciousness of com ing financial ruis is evidenced in arema.kable manner by a decree of the
dissati aoi Governor General - of" Poland substituting the new Polish mark for the rouble. The Polish mark will be the equivalent of the German mark, ́exchange for the rouble being fired at 2.16 marks. The Gurman authorities are thus: buying roubles st the rale of thirty-six marka per pound sterling, whereas the current rate is thirty marke
Ther thus exhibit their consciousDṛ88 that worse times are approaching when German coin "will not be negotiable in foreign markets, and that the Allied currencies are better worth holding. In no do ing they are repeating their action in Belgium, where the Germans took powersion of all the avail. able Belgian currency.

He retired from the Middle School this spring, and the Order just i conferred on him is evidently s token of Imperial appreciation of -the valuable services rendered by *him in that school.
