Coon ADVICE. industrious and
economical. Waste neither iime nor
money in small and useless pleasures and
indugences. If tho young can be induced
to save, the moment they enter upon the
paths oflife, tho way will ever become
easier before them, and they will not fail
to obtain a competency, and without deny
ing themselves any of the real nenessities
and comforts of life.
To industry and economy and self-reli
ance, do not take too much advice. The
business man must keep at the helm and
stenr his own ship. In early lie, every
one should be taught to think tor himself.
A mans talents are never brought out IN

The ST Louis In,elligencer thus speaks
of Indiana and her currency;
The Indianans are determined TO make
a bold struggle to sustain their curren@''
and we believe they will succeed. She
has over one million population-about
1900 miles Of completed railroad, and is
advancing in material greatness as fast as
anv State in the Union. Such q State
such a people-can sustain twice the
amour. of Bauk paper they hnve out
and as their Stock Banks are well secured,
legitimate and useful institutions, we have
no doubt Indiana will sustain them. We
believe it has been great error to reject
their money.

TEMPERANCE CONVENTION.

This Convention meets to day. What is its
&objrct has not been stated: but we take it fol
granted that il amounts to the same thing, as
the recent Abolition Convent, IN at Crawtords-
VILE This was gotten up for the express pur-

iisafection around the shattered citadel Of our
PPposition' We shall see what we shall see. .
The Politico temperance convention will not
venture to 0btr0de another ticket upon the peo.
pie Of lowa. the spirit Of discord has already
done enough. Il has severed more irretr,eva-
pie, where il was designed 10 amaloamate; it
has Infused adtional inf animation into wounds
which It wits designed to heal; it has rebuked
nd branded itself with shame, in the stead Of
hintaining its original insolence undaun,ed
Ind zoe are satisfied.
Satisfied politically. though regret,ng both
pr the sake OF human freedom and the disen-
hralment Of onr State from the evils Of intem.
erance, that men and means have been made in
umentalities Of reform, SO directly calculated
degrade oil moral purpasses and bend and
estort their moral influences.
And blythe way, we are often asked why we
? not define our position upon the great tenn
,r ance question OF the day. We are childen
i our silence, and left open 10 the imputa,iou
Dstility u the temperance reform.
We hold bvt one position. 1t has always
ZEN ours.lt ID the only democratic: the only
fe /, the onlyrjudicious Que.
Whatever law the masses Of the people Of
Pwa shall deem Tor tAeir interest, and demand
the hands Of our legislators. we stand ready
ntir'ngly, so sar a. the proposed enactment
hall be limited by the sacred bounds IF strict
Pnstitutionality. We should as soon espouse

majority Of the State.
Tie Voice of reclamation cannot qualify the
hJesty Of that sovereign law, no more than
n the petty ciamors Of disafficted clique
Iat law remains unaltered and by il we stand

When then the people shall demand a con-
NATIONAL enactment for the more thorough
