During the first week of June, Mr..
Boutwell, bought Sl,000,o0o of five
twenties, paying therefor, including the
premium, 81 1853, 500, in currency. 10
obtain the funds devoted to this pur-
chase, he sold 100000 Of the idle
hoard of gold in the Government vaults
at premium in greenbacks of AZ rs
per cent, realizing Sl,422, 500 in paper
money, and leaving balance of S269,
600 in legal tenders to go into the
Treasury. So far as the gold was APP
piled to the purchase Of the. bonds, the
Secretary obtained the 81 100000 in
vestment at an expenditure Of SS66.926.

day, 81, 07066 per week, 81, 93l.4O per

This is what paying means, and this is
the policy which guides Mr.. Boutwell, in
bis administration of the public debt.
Every week he is making just such in
vestments, often TO greater extent than
what is exemplfied above, and creating
Just such reductions of tie great burden
which weighs so heavily upon the ener-
giles, industry and prosperity of the coun

his valuable life, by his admirable man
agement of the national finances. at least
three times bis weight in American coin.
One pound avoirdupois of our gold com
age has the standard value Of $27l.3O.
If the Secretary weighs just about 1635
pounds. the amount of gold saved to the
Government by the transaction to which
we have referred above, would balance
him in pair of scales three several
times, good down weight. Throw in
the interest saved by bis far sighted in
vestment, and we could allow him sever
al pounds additional. We have just
reason to be proud Of Secretary of the
Treasury who can save to the country
every week of his tenure Of office, by
skilIful financial management, three times
and more his weight in gold.- Chicago

A GOOD COLLECTION.
What DIR. CoIlycr's Church Did,

The Chicago Republican thus mar
rates the taking up of collection 10 pay
off the $4,000 debt of DR.. Golfers
church.:
Following the magnificent and elo-
quent appeal of DIR. Bellows, the first
words of the pastor dropped full Of feel
ing. 1t was now past noon and the con-
gregation began to be swelled by those
dropping in from sister. churches just out.
A few words stated tho case. Breth
rem and sisters, we must have this mon-
ey." And then came the rainfall OF
Christian liberality. First came the
solid pattor of five thousand dollar sub
scriptions-five or six of these; then
three thousand, twenty five hundred, one
thousand-several of these; and next
began sharp shower among the hun
dreds, and rejoicing deluge of fifties,
twenty-fives and tens. 1t was in these
latter portions of these bountifu drop
pings of this new sanctuary, that the eye
of onlookers began to gilisten at the gen
uine touches of nature. Some were lit
eral widows mites; many were scholars

nations that may prove their best lega
cies, husbands for wives, wives for them.
selves, were among the offerings announ-
ced from the desk. And amid the
dispensat;on stood Lobert Collyer, as
we have seen an orchard tree rejoicing
to drink in summer rain. At times
this comparison was made all the better;
for it was with tears rs well as smiles
that he held his place for over an hour
the center of most extraordinary dis
play of Christian liberality and thank
offerings. Good DR.. Bellows, and his
clerical brethren on the platform, from
abroad, sat evincing all shades of de
light, and when the boxes were sent
round, aud the last small donation in cur.
rency collected, the whole grand donation
reached the sum of neatly SEVENTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS, the largest church
collection of the kind ever made in the
United States.

ODE TO TIE sE.y:

Hail. hyperdiaphanous and superlustrous orb OF
day,
In whose eaulgent beams with JOY lusorous iu-
sects play. -,
Before thy face the ncbulous mists hasten to deli
and quickly from thy conntcnance all obnmbra-
tions press.
Frustierous trees baccifcrous shrubs own thy Wv
ferry,
Cornuted rams and nocculent Shecp, ulsportlhg,
love thy sway
The earish rooster ambulatcs with urgent, pomp-
GUS mien.
And peacocks Der the vernal sward display their
caudal sEcen
When thou dost appropinquate toward this terradu-

Thy corruscations vespertine cause adscititious
cheer;
Thine evanescent nitency shines mid the viminai

And bathes in richest splendor the broad, velifer-
