LEGAL TENDER One OF the most alarm
ing features Of the times, it has been tru-
ly remarked, is the subServiencv of the
judicial to the p0ltical power Of the Gov
ernment. Every intelligent man konws
and every honest man believes that gold
and silver only are legal tender. Our
wiSest statesmen and profoundest lawyers
have 50 DECLARED repeatedly, but the opin-
inns of eminent men are at a discount in
these days of fanatieiS,r, st@1il!1 a1',. W
Witty. Nobady ever questioned that gold
and silver only are legal tender until 1t
was supposed political necessity existed
for the substitution of grecnbackS; and
many Judges, more solicitous to please
the Administration than to obey the laws
and promote the public welfare, have 80
far yielded to this assumed necessity, as
to give opinions to order sustaining the
new theory. Wehsters opinion on this
subject ought to satisfy every person. -

A physician in Connecticut, and said
to be distinguished chemist, has re-
Gently made discovery which must
prove of immense benefit in these times
of exorbitant prices of living. His dis
covery is that dirt, the soil on which we
tread with careless feet, can be converted
into wholesome article of diet. The
Connecticut doctor is said to have been
led to this important discovery by the
reflection that the Patagonians and other
athletic tribes make dirt portion of
their daily food. This undeniable fact
suggested to the doctor a proposition
equally undeniable, to wit, that mas
much as the vegetable productions upon
which we have been in the habit of sub
sisting, all spring from the soil, the soil
itself must contain all the nutritious
elements which find their way into the
plants which clothe it's surface. Gin a
word an acre of good, stiff mud bears
the same relation to corn, potatoes, peas;
and beans, that a bag of wheat does to a
barrel of well-bolted white flour. Wheat
is not flour, but the flour contains moth
ing which is not in the wheat. Mud is
not corn, nor is it peas, but everything
good in corn and peas comes out OF the
mud"
To certain class OF politicians, the
process of officiating will be no novelty
but to the great mass of the people, and
especially to those who are ignorant OF
eating-houses and slip shod domestics, it
will be a new sensation. The thought,
however, as one sits down to a plentiful
board, that before he rises he may de-
your, in the shape of some delicious
dish, a morsel of some monster long
since gone to dust, or consume some
thing of his own flesh which the chem
istry of nature may have resolved into
its original elements, will hardly add
keenness to the edge of ones appetite
But this, perhaps, may, with practice,
be lost sight of in the reflection that the
new diet is "dirt cheap" and always ac-
cessible, in quantities adequate to any
demand.

The first fruits of your harvest field,
The f1rstlings of your flock,
With cheerful hearts now freely yield
Your choicest stores unlock.
Let wealth of her abundance bring,
And perjury her mite;
And In q grand heart offering.
Let all-let all unite.
Let none stinted measure seek,
None Gull with niggard hand,
For oh! the gifts we now bespeak
Are for our bleeding land.
Ye've given-O God! what have We given,
What offerings have you made?
A bleeding sacrifice to heaven,
On Freedoms altar laid.
RIGHTEOUSNESS we have freely brought,
Soul Jewels rich and rare
The brightest, faireSt, purest, best
Nought can with them compare.
Your sons-your noble GENEROUS sons
Sires, husbands, brothers dear
You've not withheld these precious ones
But given them with tear.
Oh! surely the all-seeing One,
such gifts Will not ueSplse.
He Nnows-for ah He gave His SON
How great the sacrifice.
OF these what thousands strew to-day
The bloody battle-plain!
What household idols shattered lay
What numbers with the slain.
What thousands sick and wounded yeafh
In hospital and camp,
For friends and home while teebly burns
LIES trembling, Quivering lamp.
For these-for these, we ask your AID
These patriot sires and sons;
Upon our country's altar laid,
These bleeding, dying ones.
This surely you will not withhold,
Since freely you have given.
The lov'd, the choicest of the fold,
A sacrifice to heaven.
Perchance the bounty you Oestow,
Some cherished one may save,
Pierced by the hand of rebel foe,
Fast sinking TO the grave.
Perchance 1t may to health restore,
One worn by slow disease,
Who, racked by pain, turns evermore,
And longs for rest and ease.
Perchance may save some guilty soul,
And peace and comfort bring,
Ere broken is life's golden bowl,
Or snapped the silver string.
Then wealth of your abundance bring,
And perjury your mite,
And in a grand heart-offering,
Allcheerfully unite.
Thus may we hope that God will take
This Offering at our hand:
The blood and tears for Jesus sake,
And spare our guilty land.
