A Proposed GOVERNMENT PAPER


CURREScy.-It is announced that the
Director of the Z. S. Mint proposes to
establish a new paper currency based
on deposit in the institution. He has
prepared bill for this purpose, which
he intends to lay before Congress. 1t
authorizes the mint to issue certificates
on the deposite of gold bullion, and of
similar certificates by the Mint; and all
the Sub-Treasurers, on deposit of gold
coin. These certificates are to be re-
deemed only at the office which issued
them, the theory Of the process being
that the gold deposit will be always
kept on hand to meet the certificates
when presented for payment The Di-
rector claims that it will greatly increase
the security of specie-owners over that
afforded by the Banks, that it viii check
the practice of boarding: that the GER
tlhcates will become currency as much
as the gold itself; that a huge pile of
coin thus stored away will serve as a
great balance wheel to preve ut com
merclal disturbance in time ofpanic or
crisis: that the use of certificates will
prevent the use by wear, clipping or
sweating, that the retaining ofthe gov
eminent bullion fund at the Mint would
no longer benecessary; that being based
on deposit, no over-issues of certificates
could be made, and that, ike bank
notes they should be made payable to
bearer on demand, and circulate exact
lY as they do.

C0nnacrciQ5 writes:
"Money is so abundant on the Stock
exchange as to be scarcely loanable.-
Any amount could be had at the rate
Of two per cent. per annum, until the

count market the common medium is

BEAR SroRY.-A couple of Irish
men were going through the woods in
the town Of Rudolph the other day,
when they suddenly came up to bear
feeding on nuts. Happening to have
one gun with them, bruin received q
charge, whereupon it attacked the tor
turer; but after pounding it with the
butt Of the gun, the men succeeded In
beating the bear Of, and forcing it to
" beat q retreat" when three others
were discovered. Without ammuni-
ton, the twain returned to the house,
procured an additional gun and ammu-
milton, and gave chase. They overlook
the absconding party about mile from
the place where they were left, and the
men succeeded in killing the whole
herd. A profitable days work.

have been unable to attend these lee
lures throughout, but on one evening
We heard him advance a .5eac whole
some truths; yet the burden Of his Al
ganents are scriptnrally false, philo-
sophicaily false, and false in fact. He
is no doubt sincere, and religiously in

sitions he assumes will make his hear

doubtful.
Mr.. Reed is evidently very sanguine
Of occupying correct grounds, and if he
is talented, it is equally evident that he
has found it out. He challenges the
world to meet him to discuss his dog

Smith has engaged to accommodate the
special pleader. The time Of the dis
cussion we have not learned.

Our GOLD CRoP-Tha Nav York

Our GOLD CRoP.-The New York
Herald has the following: "California
gives us a million a week. All the
other fields, we can safely say with
what facts We already have, will give
lis at least half as much. Our gold
crop is therefore likely to be for years
to come at the rate of million and a
half per week, or seventy-seven millions
Of dollars per annum-equal to one-half
Of the value Of the cotton crop of the
country" "

TAKING CUBA BY ATrACHMESr.-

TAXING .CUBA By ~ATTACHMENT.-4
The latest scheme for Selling Cuba was
ventilated in the Senate Of the U. S.
a few days ago by Hon. JEFF. Davis
His proposition, which is cordially en-
dorsed by the Washington Union, is to
proceed against Spain by attachment
as an absent Ascending fraudulent
debtor. The federal organ discourses
of the subject as follows:
"Nir. Davis proposes, under all the
circumstances, that the Federal Gov
eminent shall notify Spain and demand
payment of certain Indebtedness, and,
in default thereof, that alta chment issue
with directions to our naval constables
to seize the island Of Cuba. In equity
Mr.. Davis is right. Spain has justly
forfeited all claim to the forbearance of
the United States. The island has
been governed for twenty years on the
idea that England and France would
not consent to its falling into our hands.
1t has been regarded as perfectly safe
to treat our people as barbarians and
pirates; to arrest them, confscate their
property, and even when pronounced
innocent in criminal prosecutions, to
refuse not only to return their estates,
but make them pay enormous COSTS
The whole judicial system of Cuba is
in the hands, or under the control of
the Governor General. This is not the
theory Of the Government, but it is the
practice; so that all authority, whatever
and by whomsoever exercised, is a

EIGHT CHILDREN AT A BIRTH
EGYPT AGAINST ALL. CREATIoN.--About
five months since the wife of Jacob
Abbott, living ten miles west of Co.
conda, in Pope county, presented her
husband with eight pledges ofaffection
at one birth! -Four of these children
survived until some six weeks since,
whan two of them sickened and died.
The remaining two are still living and
thriving finely. The whole eight were
very small specimens ofhumanity when
ushered into this world, as might have
been expected. This statement i. lit
te1.-ally true; it Is vouched for by num-
bers Of respectable witnesses who saw
the four living children. Egypt is
