John Wilkes Booth, the supposed assassin
OF your late President. That he would BE-

him not four weeks ago, and learned from
him all the hardships that he underwent in
leaving this country, He says that no one
who has the least regard for truth will say
thst he was in Fords -Theater on the 18th
of April last, and wonders Why no one pres-
ent on that occasion did not pretend to re-
cognize the man that shot Lincoln until they
were told that it was him by Eory Keen, bis
bitter enemy. He did not, however, to me
deny or admit that he had done the deed !;
but stated that no one could truthfully say;
of their ewn knowledge, that it was him

killed in the barn looked. He learned from
the papers that be had heavy beard, and
had shesred or cut it In such an awkward

friends would not recognize Booth. He thinks

iTbeProsidsnt of tho United States, in! his ~
Message to Congress, gives US ZONE interesting
information about the financial nifalrd OF hls

Ho tells US THAI tho circulating mcdinm of tho

| What is this Seven Hundred Millions Of circu-
latng medium working cut for cur friends OF the
| North-and for oursslvcsl The first effect of
| having paper currency near four, times greater
| than the business Of the country demands, is to
iaiato tho price of all goods 10 four times their
realvalue. This effect we see already in every
article of con samptie tien-cverything that tho poor
man has to buy. Tho next consequence Of this
| imitation is to INTRODUCED into the country two
| kinds Of currency, specie and paper. The his
tory of commerce and banking in all countries
| proves that where two distinct kinds Of currency
exist in country, the better quality will finally
d.ivo out tho inferior. Thus where paper
currency has been put in circulation without o
substantial, or at least o,easiJle gold basis, pub
lie confidence at once fails to sustain such billa
and they soon cease to have any circulation or
exchange abls value. Witness the Continental
bills Of l776, tha Assignats of Franco of 1903
and the Treasury bills Of the Confcderacy Of
1861. and al Banks in all times aud places. that

Systematic Study,

Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, at
Bishop Stortford's, few DAYS ago,
observed Many persons seeing me
so much engaged in active life, and as
much about the world as if / had
never been student, have said to
me: When do you get the time to
write all your books? How on earth
do you contrive to do so much work?'
L shall perhaps surprise you by the
answer L make-the answer is this: /
contrive to do so much, by never do
ing too much at time. A man to
get through work well must not over
work himself, for if he do too much
to-day, the reaction of fatigue will
come, and he will be Obliged to do
little tomorrow. Now since [ began
really and earnestly to study. which
was not till / left college and
was actually in the world, / may
perhaps say that / have gone
through as large a course of gen.
eral reading as most men of my
time. | have travelled much-I have
mixed much in politics, and in the
various business of life, and in addi-
ton to all this, / have published
somewhere about sixty volumes,
some upon subjects requiring much
special research. And what time do
you think, as a general rule, I have
devoted to study--to reading and writ
ing? Not more than three hours
day, and when Parliament is sitting,
not always that. But then, during
those hours, have given my whole
attention to what / was about"
