THE ELECTION OF A SOUTH CAR
 OLINA SENATOR.

It is generally conceded that the late speech of Senator Hammond of South Carolina dis played an unusual degree of good sense He discussed the questions involved in the great fact of slavery with far more moderation than we are wont to find, or even to expect, south of Mason & Dixon's line It is true, he brand- isned the old war-club once or twice, and gave the characteristic whoop of his tribe but he did both feeby and he seemed throughou to pre- fer placing the merits of his cause, whatever they might be, on the sonndness aud pertiner- cy of his argument, rather than upon the boist- erousneSs of his lungs or the violence of his ac- ton. He was moreover, particularly anxious to impress his hearers with the thought that it was not entirely impossible for them to live on easy terms with the federal Union.
 This guarded tone of Senator Hammond has provoked the more vehement members of his class, wh" fear lest, in taking away the grounds of their bI,,st,r he should dtprive them also of their means of distinction. For, if they cannot be crItiral-if they cannot rail against the Un- ion and the N0rth-tley are nothing. But the better sort of southern men, on the other hand-the more discreet, quirt, and conserva- tive ;nlong th,n'-have approved of the mra - ured tread of their senator Even the South Carolina legislature, after protracted conside- ration of the subject. has expressed its decided concurrence in his views by the election of Jumes Chestnut as his colleague.
 MT. Chestnut is now President of the Senate of South Carolina he is a man of high char acter and of considerable ability, and though he shares with the statesmen of the South gea- erally the pro-slavery sentiments of that region, he has never identified himself with the faction of extremists known as the fre-eaters. Like MT Hammond, he considers that the South is still able to endure the evils of which il never theless complains obstreperousy, and that it will not be utterly hopeless to accomplish all proper political objects within the limits of the Union. Doubtless both gentlemen, like the good Bottom, could, if they would, "play Err cles rarely :" they could move storms and condole in some measure" but such is not | now their vein, if it ever was.
 We are happy to make this announcement, because we know how much it must relieve the minds of that large and timorous class which has not been able to sleep of nights, for several years past, in consequence of the sounding

The American Agrcnlturist for this month has an interesting article relating to coffee. The quantity consumed annually it affirms, cannot be less than than five to six hundred millions of pounds, perhaps more.
 The aroma and flavor of this berry depends upon the quantity of Volatile Oa therein. Payen says, "that if this volatile oil could be extracted and used in favoring the poorer kinds, it would be worth in market $8,000 8 pound Direct experiments upon the human system have been made with this oil. It was found that quantity no greater than the fourhumdred-thomsamdth part ef o pound, or the tpentyfrs thOwsandM part cf an Onnos, (les, than one si1th of d gram D taken daily, produced gentle precipitation, dspelled hun- ger, and exhirated the brain while double this minute quantity (the amount obtained
 from quarter pound of coffee induced vio- lent preparation, or sweating with slee pless- ness and incipent congestion The liquid from three or four ounces of coffee, if taken at one time by person unaccustomed to this beverage, would produce violent if not fatal effects Can we wonder then, that those drinking freely of strong tea or coffee are tro1- bled with weak, unsteady nerves, neuralgia. headache, and hundred other ailments With these, as with all other simulaDts, an ex- filtration is first produced then follows de- pression of spirits, by which time another dose of stimulants is felt to be needed, and is usual. ly taken. With this common sense view of the matter, it is the height of abslrdity to acc custom growing children and persons to the use of coffce or tea. It is worse than absurd it is equivalent to compelling them or allowing them to carry chain that will wear into their flesh sore difficult to be healed, which must ever after be daily dressed with a mollient ointment" s.
 We commend the whole article from which the above is taken, to the serious attention of our readers.

A PROPOSED GOVERNMENT PAPER CrRREN-

A PROPOSED GOVERNMENT PAPER CURREN- cY.-It is announced that the Director of the United States Mint proposes to establish a new paper currency. based on the deposits in that institution. He has prepared bill for that purpose, which he intends to lay before Congress. It authorizes the Mint to issue cer- ticatcs on tue deposits of gold bullion, aud of similar certificates by he Mint and all the Sub Treasur,rS, on deposites of gold coin. These certificates are to be redeemed only at the office which issued them, the theory of the process being that gold deposited will be aI- ways kept OH hand to meet the certificates when presented for payment. The Director claims that it will greatly increase the security of slacie-owners over that afforded by the hauk> that it will check the practice of hoard i:g that the certificates will become currency as much as the gold itself that a huge pile of coin thus stored away will serve as a great bal ance wheel to prevent commercial disturbances in times of pauic or crisis that the use of cer- tifcates will prevent the loss by wear, clipping or sweating that the retaining of a gcverll- meat bullion fund at the Mut would no longer be necessary that being based on deposits, no over-issne of certificates could be made, and that, like bank notes, they should be made payable to bearer on demand, and circulate ex- actly as they do. Senator Gwin is quite ill- terested i'll the enactment of such law. But it seems almost identical with the Bullion Bank projected in New York, with the single excep- tion that depositors pay nothing for the safe keeping of their coin.
