Why LADIES SHOULD READ News
PAPERS, 1t is great mistake in fe-
male education to keep young lady's
time and attention devoted to only the
fashionable literature Of the day. If
you would qualify her for conversation,
you must give her something to talk
about-give her education with this ac-
tual world and its transporting events.
Urge her to read newspapers, and be-
come familiar with the present charac-
ter and improvement of our race. His
tory is of some importance; but the
past world is dead, and we have moth
ing to do with it. Our thoughts and
our concerns should be for the present
world; to know what it is and improve
the condition Of it. Let her have an
intelligent opinion, and be able to sus-
tain an intelligent conversation concer-
ming the mental, moral, political and
religious Improvements Of our time.
Let the gilded ANNALS and poems on
the center table be kept part Of the
time covered with weekly and daily
Journals. Let the whole family-men,
women and children read the newspa-

mondays the 2Sth Day Of June:
Weagain remind our readers in this State
of the Bank Election on Monday, the 2sth
inst, at which time is to be decided the i'm.
portant question whether our State il to
have a reliable banking system or be depend.
ant on the shinplasters and deprecated issue.
Of other States and Territories for a currency,
We hope to see both the Free and State
Banking Laws adopted by the people. There
will be no conflict in their operation, while
they will insure safe currency for us. That
both lawsare sound and worthyof confidence
is the opinion Of all good judges who have
examined them. The Chicago Tribune thus
speaks of the State Bank Law:
The Banking Law of Iowa, involving. az it
does, change in the Constitution Of the
State, which prohibits all banks Of whatever
nature or description, Is to receive the vote
OF the people on the 2Sth of June. No dis
eusslon OF any consequence has been elected
by the near approach of the election
whence we conclude there will be very
trifiing opposition to the law. In its provis-
iono ~ Is oAactIy SlmlIar TO The ONO system
with one exception. 1t provides for the
establishment OF State Bank aud branches,
like the State Bank of Ohio, and for Free
Banks ON the stock security plan. 1t differs
from the Ohio model allowing the Auditor
or Comptroller to receive as security for the
latter class of institutions, other stocks than
those Of the United States, and of the State
itself. In this particular it copies the other
Western States--following Illinois in the
requirement of margin of ten per cent. in
the securities, to cover contingencies in their
market value.
We think on the whole the Iowa law is
the best one in the West, excepting perhaps
that Of Ohio. The character OF the security
in the latter State is certainly superior, but
it would be impossible under existing ar
engagements 10 make a law OF any practical
utility in the former based upon its own
stocks-the Constitution of Iowa limiting its
debt to $250,O00 The experience OF Iowa
with the melancholy tecundity of Nebraska
in its shinplaster department, has been of
character, We think, to ensure an emphatic
vote in favor of a safe home currency.
