A new and able work on the currency is
now in the press, and will be published in
the course Of next week, written by Mr..
S. E. Parker. A full view Of this impor-
tant question is taken by the learned and
intelligent author, and the work itselfa'
bounds in numerous pregnant illustrations
of the relative operations Of specie and
paper currency. The doctrine it incul-
Gates is founded on ihdisputable facts
drawn from the transactions of the most
prosperous commercial nations Of the
world. The great principles which regu-
late commerce, and in the application et-
feet the prosperity Of individual states,
have rarely been given to the public IN so
lucid form.--ib.

AN UNUSUAL DECREE OF GOOD SENSE.

ted families and preserved amongst the
precious things Of admonition. The facts
we're these:-A young gentleman of very
unexceptionable character addressed a
young lady of equal good standing, imme.
diately after the completion Of her educa-
ton. She consented.-The young gem
tleman, flushed with success, repaired to
the father of the young lady, and his con-
sent was also obtained. The only remain
ing duty was to consult the mother. This
he did nothing doubling On breaking
the matter TO her, his request was answer
ed by an interrogatory to the following eff
feet.
"Mr. ---, do you imagine | have
respect for you or notG"
81 could hope you do" was the reply.
"Your hopes are not in vain but that
very respect constrains me TO withhold
my consent on this occasion. You are
aware my daughter has been at school
since an early age, and consequently she
is wholly ignorant Of household Duties
My opinion is, people should never get
married without prospect Of promoting
their happiness thereby. The entire ig-
norance ofmy daughter, in the particular
alluded to, would, in all probability, wound
her pride, and give adisrelish to her chan
ged condition. While, therefore, cannot,
in the smallest degree, object to you as
every way worthy Of my daughter, re-
gard for your own and her happiness COM
pels me to withhold my assent until she
shall have been fully instructed on house
hold duties"
She further informed him that not more
than twelve months delay would be eau
sed thereby"
The young man, with equal good sense,
bowed in Joyous submission, and returned
to his fair to announce the result with feel
ings nothing abated towards her, but, if
possible, with more love for the mother.
The daughter approved the decision, and
engaged in her new duties with becoming
zeal. If there be another such mother
and daughter in this world, we should be
