H The origin Of the portrait of the
goddess of liberty upon our coins is of
great interest. Dir. Spencer, the inventor
of Spencer's lathe, used by the American
bank note company, was the artist who
cut the first die for our American coin.-
He cut an exact medallion of Mrs. George
Washington, and the first few coins were
struck with her portrait. When general
Washington saw them he was displeased
and requested the figure to be removed
Mr.. Spencer altered the features little,
and putting a cap upon its head, called it
the goddess of liberty. Washington was
too modest to allow of man worship or ev-
en- woman worship. Yet now a-days the
Spinner, Chases, and all the underlings of
the paper money, must stamp their impu-
dent faces on the fraudulent coinage, 1t
is the age of progress.

$50,

The members of the House of Represen-
tatives at Harrisburg, on Thursday last, &C
tualy voted themselves the snug little sum
Of $3.50 piece for the valuable (D services
they have rendered the people the present
session. When we take into consideration
the small number of days they have been in
session and the mean service they have
rendered the people, this is about as near
stealing as we'll can be, without actually
breaking into the treasury. We are glad
to see the press, without distinction of party
are severely coudemning this outrage. The
Philadelphia Sunday Mercury, in referring
to this matter says the action of the men,
bers Of the Legislature in increasing their
paw from $1,000 to l $50, cannot be too
severely condemned. EmanatIng from
those who should be the conscrvators OF the
peoples interests, this unwarratable appro-
priation becomes the more outrageous. In
the days when Democracy was in the as
cendant, $500 was considered reasonable
amount for one hundred DAYS legislation,
Since REpublicansm asserted its authority
the incursions upon the rights OF the people
know no bounds. From 500, 1t has in
creased members salary to : $50, with a
probability of continuing in the same strain
until the people return to the ''wisdom of
their fathers" by sending representative
men to make their lawS.-Edston Sentinel.

Marriage.

Whatever faults Voltaire may have had,
he certainly showed himself man of sense
when he said: "The more married men
you have, the fewer crimes there will be.
Marriage renders man more virtuous and
more wise" An unmarried man is but
half of perfect being, and it requires the
other half to make things right; and it
cannot be expected that in this imperfect
state he can keep the straight path of rec
ttude any more than boat with one oar,
or a bird with one wing, can keep straight
course. In nine cases out of ten, where
men become drunkards, or where they COM
NIT crimes against the peace of the COM
munity, tie foundation of these acts was
laid while in single state, or where the
wife is, as is sometimes the case, an un-
suitable match. Marriage changes the
whole current of mans feelings, and gives
him centre for his thoughts, his affections
and his acts Here is home for the en-
tire man, and the counsel, the affections,
the example, and the interests of his ''bet-
ter half" keep him from erratic courses,
an from falling into a thousand tempta-
tions to which he would otherwise be ex-
posed. Therefore the friend to marriage
is friend to society and to bis country

Jefferson Davis.

The President has recently been urged
by Congressman of tn Republican persua-
sion and other influential citizens, to release
jeff, Davis from imprisonment upon bail
or upon his own recognizance, inasmuch as
there is now less probability than hereto
fore that Chef-Justice Chase can be in
dnced to preside at a session of the United
States Circuit Court in Virginia within a
reasonable time. Judge Chase has here
tofOre refused to hold Court in the District
IN which Davis must be tried, upon the
grouLd that it would not be in keeping
with the dignity of a Judge of the Supreme
Court TO preside in District in which the
civil authority was not fully restored, aud
where the military arm pf the Government
is required TO sustain the law and direct
and control the action of the citizens. He
has said repeatedly that not until the civil
authority shall be acknowledged and estab-
liShed beyond cavil, will he take his seat
upon the bench. In view of all the cir
cumstsnces the President is asked to re-
lease Mr.. Davis from confinement on bail
or on his own recognizance, and there is
good reason for saving that, within the
next week or two, Mr.. DAVIS will be dis
charged from custody upon his own recog-
nizance to answer the charges that may be
brought against him.-N Y. Times.

GENTLEMEN Il have received, with
grateful ernotions,you very kind invitation
to public dinner You propose to give me.
in the city of Philadelphia, on any day I
may indicate. Nothing, can assure you,
could afford me greater pleasure than to
meet you around the festive board, and
with you renew the pleasant memories of
long past years.
deny myself the qualification, only in
Difference to what | consider the wise ex-
ample of my democratic predecessors in the
office of President. After having admin
istered the most exalted Office which the
country could bestow, they deemed it ex-
pedient to remain in the retirement of pri-
vate life and whilst holding their own
opinions on the political questions of the
day, they left the public discussion ofthem
to gentlemen, like yourselves, still on the
busy theatre of active life.
If any other reason were required for
ms selfdenial on this occasion, | might re-
fer you to my advanced age of which you
remind me, by stating that am now the
last survivor of American statesmen Of
the olden time, the only living cotemporary
of Webster and Clay, and Benton and Cal
houn." In passing, permit me to say, you
might have justly added to these distin-
guished names, that of Silas Wright He
was statesman, who, for sound practical
wisdom, for far-seeing sagacity, and for
lucid and convincing argument, had no su-
perior in the Senate, even at the period
when it was the greatest deliberative body
in the world. You have my cordial thanks
for your opinion chat no responsibility for
the years of blood and sorrow we have en-
dured, rests on me, who tiled, in a moment
of terrible exigency, to DO my duty under
the Constitution" Proceeding as this
does, from large number of my fellow
citizens, equal in Intelligence, character and
patriotism, to any similar number of gentle
men in the State, may | not, with much
confidence, indul ge the hope that You but
anticipate the general sentiment of future
times ? Under this impression, and always
firmly relying on Divine Providence,l have
borne with tranquil and contented spirit
all the harsh criticisms which have been
published on my official conduct through
out the last unhappy years. Assuming,as
you do, "the immediate future Of the cOun-
try to be full of peril" you ask me 'for
words of counsel, of consolation, and, if
possible of hope" Consistently with my
seIfimposed reticence | may say to you =
exert all your power and influence in dis
seminating and enforcing its general prln-
cipIes,b means of the press, public speech
cs, private conversations, and in every 9th
cr honorable manner and employ the
same untiring energy in exposing and con-
demning every departure from It's precepts.
Never despair ; for the time will surely
come when these shall triumph and control
the administration of the government.
With sentiments of grateful respect, |
remain,
Your much obliged friend.
