II Partner IN the business Of Man.
Wactwing Horse shoe Nail Iron.
TIME Subscriber has invented a sys-
4. tenn of making Horse shoe-nals
which is considered of grea, value. The
want of capital 10 prosecute the business 10
advantage, impels him 10 offer portion of
the invention Tor forging the iron, to some
en;erprising person who may have small
amount Of money to Invent in the business
A profit of only five mills per pound, nv
the vast amount OF iron used in the manu-
facture Of horse shoe-nails in the United
States and Territories, (which patents in
this country incIude,) would yield an in
come Of more than one hundred thousand
dollars per annum. But i! is plain that
much greater profit can be realised, for.
when the iron is properly shaped, (Which
would probably cost no more than COM
mon slit rods) an ordinary hand can make
over one thousand nails per hour, without
the use of coal or aid OF heat. Nails thus
manufactured are stronger.--more free
from faws--ln better shape, and require
less laOOr IN polnlltlg, tDau tnoSe Ehaue
in the ordinary way from slit rods. A
plan of the invention and manner of torg-
ing the iron, SC will be given 10 any one
willing to invest the small sum Of $500,
dollars in the enterprise,
This invention is the result Of more
than three years labor, in experimenting
and making horse shoe nails in multi
tude of ways. The iron is perfectly re-
fined down by the ham mer, and no rolling
nor siung about it, Letters patent will
be obtained as soon as the necessary ar
fragments can be made.
Here is noble chance for some pro-
prietor of a trip hommer-shop, or me-
chanic skilled in the art OF forging iron
under trip hammer. Address.

FRAUD. The clause of the Texas re-
solutions, reserving the territory north
of So 80 for free States, has been de
nounced in Congress as a base fraud, on
the ground that Texas does not extend
north of 340. This is immateriaI, as the
territory north Of 1920 is hardly bigger
than mans thumb, and what there is
oft is vaIueless. The whole clause is
one Of the most contemplate tricks ever
perpetrated by any govelnment.-W Watch,

The Public Money.

!; 1t will be remembered that when the Wing Congress
repealed the Independent Treasury law, they adopted
lno better substitute than the old exploded 9 pet bank
SYSTEM which was liable at any crisis, to explode in
bankruptcy, and cheat the Government out of all Its
funds and which they had previously condemned in
the most positive manner. All the Democrats could
do, under the circumstances, wa to demand that the
<Deposite Banks should give security, according to the
. judgment of the Secretary of lie Treasury As a
matter of necessity, therefore, the public 5eposites
have been kept in banks selected by the Secretary of
the Treasury, up to the present time. Some doubts
and rumors having been expressed and started in
various quarters, the Washington Union notices some
of them, and says
"No permanent system has been adopted by the
Secretary of the Treasury. He is engaged at present
in securing the public moneys, and rendering the mint
most active and efficient; increasing the deposites in
the mint, and the coinage, especially of dimes and
half dimes, to be used under the new post office law.
The Independent Treasury Bill has been repealed
land the Secretary is further embarrassed by the pro-
vision of the act Of the 18th June, 1874, recognizing
to a certain extent the then existing Deposite Bank
and declaring, further, .. that no changes be
made erceptJ for noncompliance Nth the instructions
.0f the Treasury Department, or the failure to furnish
sufficient security" This provision was no doubt
to be changed, whenever the Democratic
party should come into power IN the two Houses OF
congress. That the Secretary of the Treasury Will
carry out his specie doctrines to the full extent per-
United by the law, and especially that he will increase,
coinage, is certain. But he will not attempt to-
violate or evade the law, TO carry out any doctrine he!
may entertain.
We repeat, the Secretary is contributing his pro-.
portion Of public duty to facilitate the introduction of!
the new post Office law. He has already drawn upon5
the places of deposit for Mexican dollars. &C., to bel
sent TO the mint and branch minis in different sumss
of $4,000, 10000, 100000, and $4,000 IT to theE
amount, in all, of S250. 600, to be coined into dimes,I
for the use of the people under the new post Office law
More will be sent, to the full extent authorized by law.
The next issue will probably be of quarters, when az
sufficient number of dimes and half dimes is coined. u

THE "ExcHANeEs."-The N. Y. News observe

THE "ExcHANGEs."-The N. Y. News observes,
IN a late money article, that
"The promptness and regularity with which ex-
changes regulate themselves of late years should not
be lost sight of. A large political party staked their
claims to power upon the necessity of a National
Bank, to collect and pay moneys in different sections
of the country. The fact is, that without any regu-
lation whatever, bills were never more equally in sup
ply to the extent of the demand, or more uniformly
within a fraction of par. From Boston to New Or
leans throughout the entire Atlantic coast, the ex-
IRENE rate is not over 1 per cent. discount, and the
average affords but a small commission to the broker.
On no point of the Union is the rate so high as would
cover the cost of transportation of specie. The sup
ply of bills so nearly equals the demand that the COM
petition of many individual negotiators reduces the
rate to a very small fraction of one per cent. as their
remuneration for buying and selling. Under a ma
tional monopolizing regulator the reverse was the
case. That institution kept the rate as high as pos
sible to be under the cost of transportation of specie.
1t could not exceed that rate as long as it paid specie,
because to demand the coin was a single check upon
its greed. The present admirable state of the ex-
may be ascribed solely to the absence of the
regulator"

1 NUTRITIvE PROPERTIES OF SUGAR--The nutritive
properties Of sugar are much moderated In this coun-
try. As an aliment, DR.. Rush, of Philadelphia, main1
stalns that sugar produces the greatest quantity of
nourishment in a given quantity of matter of any sub
stance in nature. Horses and cattle, when fed who'll
.ly on it in st. Domingo for some months, when the
deportation of sugar and Importation Of grain were
prevented for want of ships, during the crop time in
the West Indies, all appear fat and fiourishing. The
lcattle fed on the cane tops become sleek and in a fine
The negroes drink freely Of the Juice, and
become fat and healthy. Sir George Staunton OBJ
serves, that many of the slaves and idle persons IN
.China hide themselves among the canes and live en-
'tirely on them for a time. In that kingdom the en-
1peror compels his body-guard to eat a certain qusnti-
|ty of sugar every day that they may become fat and
look portly. Sugar and rice constitute the common
food of the people, and every kind of domestic animal
lis fed on sugar. Plague, malignant fevers, and dis
.orders in the breast are unknown in the countries
Iwhere sugar is abundantly eaten as food.
